73. Drink tea
Wang Yuanzhi died at this time, and Chu Yunqing was a little depressed.
He wanted to kill this person, but he still hesitated in his heart. Who on earth heard his voice and took action on his behalf?
Could it be Ai Xiaozhou?
Probably not, she is not a nosy person.
Chu Yunqing could not help but shake his head. Now, I am afraid that many people in the Yuanxing Gang are already suspecting that Wang Yuanzhi's death is related to him.
For example, the low-browed Ke Fang in front of me.
"I didn't kill Wang Yuanzhi." Chu Yunqing said directly.
Ke Fang nodded quickly, "That's definitely not the case. How could Bo Yuntian, a gangster, harm his brothers?"
Chu Yunqing said seriously: "I really didn't kill the person."
Ke Fang was equally serious, "Yes, the gang leader has been in the main hall all day, and he will definitely not kill anyone."
Chu Yunqing covered his head, then waved his hand, "Forget it, just do whatever you want."
Ke Fang smiled, as if he understood everything.
"How about the gambling shop and horse market in Nanshi?" Chu Yunqing asked about business.
"Now we all know that Chen Wu is dead and Wang Yuanzhi is dead. To be honest, there is a bit of chaos in the gambling house. In addition to a few incense owners competing for business, there are also people from other gangs trying to test things out." Ke Fang said.
In Taiyuan City, in addition to the Yuanxing Gang, there are also several small gangs such as the Beggar Gang, the Money Gang, and the Black Tiger Gang. Of course, the Beggar Gang will definitely not compete for any industry.
"Who is reaching out?" Chu Yunqing asked.
They're going to kill someone again! Ke Fangxin was shocked, "Fatty Sha from the Black Tiger Gang."
Chu Yunqing nodded, "Invite him to come and tell me that I will invite him to tea."
Ke Fang quickly agreed and then went to send someone.
After a while, he hurried upstairs again with a strange look on his face.
"Gang leader, someone from Prince Yong's Mansion has come and wants to invite you to Yan Lai Tower for tea."
"Prince Yong's Mansion?" Chu Yunqing raised his eyebrows and subconsciously thought of Xiaoyaosan.
Ke Fang was also confused, "The gang leader still has a relationship with Prince Yong's Mansion?"
Chu Yunqing didn't say anything, straightened his clothes a little, and then went downstairs.
Ke Fang shook his head, feeling that he had underestimated this gang leader before. He was a humble person in the past, but he didn't expect that he had such a wide network of contacts.
…
Yan Lai Tower is a teahouse, owned by the Yuan Xing Gang.
It used to be under the control of Mu Chun, but now it is of course under the control of the main hall and someone is sent to take over.
As soon as Chu Yunqing arrived, the shopkeeper came out to welcome him, nodding and bowing in a very respectful manner.
No idea, even though the Yuanxing Gang has had a lot of incidents recently, with high-level officials dying one after another, the Yuanxing Gang has its roots in Taiyuan Prefecture, with a strong foundation and deep roots. Even if there is high-level competition, it is still a towering tree.
The death of a few people will not affect its vigorous growth at all, especially the Chu Yunqing who takes over now is not a newcomer without any foundation. He has qualifications, martial arts, and people obey him.
Therefore, the Yuan Xing Gang is still the same Yuan Xing Gang as before. At most, there are a few more strange noises next to this tree.
But the shopkeeper of a mere teahouse would definitely not dare to make a mistake.
Chu Yunqing nodded, went straight upstairs, and met the people from Prince Yong's Mansion in the private room.
This was also the first time Gongsun Zhe met Chu Yunqing. Originally, there was no need for him to come in person. Even if the matter involved Xiaoyaosan, he had other arrangements.
But later I couldn't restrain my curiosity and wanted to see who the new leader of the Yuan Xing Gang was.
When Chu Yunqing opened the door and came in, Gongsun Zhe's eyes lit up.
From the other party, he not only saw the heroic spirit of Jiang Hu, but the other party just stood there. If he changed his green shirt into a robe, he would look like a general charging into battle in a play.
What a good man!
Chu Yunqing felt a little uncomfortable when he saw this one-armed middle-aged man, and he couldn't help but maliciously speculate whether this man was as good as Long Yang.
The next moment, Gongsun Zhe stood up, raised his hand and said, "Master Chu, please sit down!"
Chu Yunqing pulled out the chair, lifted up his shirt, and sat down calmly.
This calm demeanor made Gongsun Zhe like him even more.
"I am a staff member of the royal palace, my surname is Gongsun, and my given name is Zhe." He smiled kindly and said, "I have heard of Brother Qing'er from Kanglefang for a long time. When I saw him today, he was indeed extraordinary."
Chu Yunqing also smiled slightly and said neither humble nor arrogantly: "A mere gangster should not be praised like this by a noble man."
He had been in the market and had developed some discernment early on. Although the person in front of him claimed to be a staff member, his temperament was that of a pampered person who had been in a high position for a long time. I am afraid that this was definitely not unusual in Prince Yong's palace.
Gongsun Zhe smiled.
Chu Yunqing said directly: "I wonder why Mr. Gongsun invited me here?"
Gongsun Zhe didn't expect him to be so direct, but looking at his eyes, he knew that this was not intentional, but that this person had a straightforward temperament, which was the same as what he had investigated before.
He nodded and said: "Then let me tell you straight away, someone should take over Chen Wu's Xiaoyaosan business."
When he said this, he kept looking into the eyes of the person opposite him, and sure enough, there was no trace of surprise in them.
Chu Yunqing said: "I wonder, what does Mr. Gongsun mean?"
"We want you to take over." Gongsun Zhe said.
Chu Yunqing was not surprised at this time.
He had thought about it when he came here. If Prince Yong's Mansion had something to do with him at the moment, the only thing involved would be Chen Wu's Xiaoyaosan business.
But he didn't expect that the other party would make it clear to him and would also let him take over.
To be honest, he didn't want to accept it, and even hated it, even if it would bring him huge benefits.
"Brother Qing'er seems a little hesitant?" Gongsun Zhe asked, "Why?"
Chu Yunqing exhaled and said: "Indeed, this is hard to refuse, but I can't figure out why you chose me instead of Ke Fang?"
He is the leader of the gang, and he has to deal with a lot of matters inside and outside the gang, such as specific business, and he certainly cannot be immersed in doing it. But Ke Fang is different, just like Shi Chongshan and Chen Wu back then.
Gongsun Che said with a smile: "Ke Fang is good at martial arts, but he is not smart enough, and he has been a fool for a long time, so he loses his courage. Xiaoyaosan is of great importance and needs bold and careful people to do it."
Chu Yunqing said: "I'm not smart enough either."
After listening to it for a long time, Gongsun Zhe could see that he was not enthusiastic about Xiaoyao San, so he couldn't help but said: "Don't you know what Xiaoyao San means?"
"The family is broken and everyone is dead." Chu Yunqing said.
"What do you mean by this?" Gongsun Zhe frowned, "Don't you want to use the words of those who claim to be righteous in the world?"
Chu Yunqing shook his head and said: "Xiaoyao San can make a lot of money."
Gongsun Zhe asked doubtfully: "Then why did you refuse? You are still young now, and it seems that you also want to practice martial arts. You can't embezzle the Yuan Xing Gang's money, right?"
Of course, Chu Yunqing would not say that he had a little help, so he just said: "This is a serious matter, and I need to think about it carefully."
What Gongsun Zhe was thinking was that he wanted to discuss the matter with the people behind him.
"Presumably, senior, he will agree." He said.
Senior? Chu Yunqing was startled.
Gongsun Zhe looked at his eyes that were "surprised that he had revealed the secret", smiled slightly, and was very satisfied.
