When the tree falls, the monkeys scatter.
This was true for everyone, and Elder Long was no exception.
Hadn't the Qin Family been like this in the past? If it hadn't been for the Zhu Family and the Song Family behind them, the Qin Family might have collapsed long ago. Even so, there were still many people who took advantage of the Qin Family's difficulties. Otherwise, how could Qin Changan get in so easily?
However, Elder Long definitely did not expect that the Qin Family would end up like him today.
As Elder Long lost more and more miserably in this storm, more and more people would kick him when he was down. People like Feng Xiangru and Yang Yaozu would also increase. After all, no one was willing to fall with Elder Long.
Moreover, Feng Xiangru and Yang Yaozu not only had the forces supporting them, but also their relatives and friends who needed their protection.
Feng Xiangru's family didn't want to ruin the resources and connections they had accumulated for generations in Elder Long's hands. After Elder Long died, they could choose a new Elder Long. As long as they were like-minded and had common interests, it was not difficult.
However, if they blindly followed Elder Long to the end, they would pay a price that they couldn't bear.
The same was true for Yang Yaozu. He had climbed to his current position from an ordinary nobody. After getting used to the scenery at the top, he was not willing to go back to the bottom.
Moreover, he not only had to be responsible for the tycoons supporting him, but he also had to ensure that his descendants would never be like him. Instead, they would be born with a different starting point, just like the descendants of these big families.
Therefore, both sides, or rather, many parties hit it off, and Elder Long could only be sacrificed.
After all, it was Elder Long who had offended the Qin Family, and it had nothing to do with them.
At this moment, Qin Sheng was confused. Before he came to see Feng Xiangru and Yang Yaozu, he had talked with his First Uncle and Uncle Gongsun. At that time, Chen Beiwang was also there. He guessed the conditions and purpose of Feng Xiangru and Yang Yaozu's cooperation with them, and also discussed the result that the Qin Family wanted.
What the Qin Family wanted most was that Feng Xiangru and Yang Yaozu could contain the forces inside Elder Long, so that Qin Sheng could find a chance to kill Elder Long himself. At the same time, after Elder Long died, it would not cause too much backlash. That was why they needed Feng Xiangru and Yang Yaozu's help.
However, he had not expected that the two of them would want to kill Elder Long with their own hands.
Qin Sheng did not know what to say for a while.
Qin Sheng fell into silence. Feng Xiangru and Yang Yaozu were not in a hurry. This was just the beginning. The cooperation between the two sides needed to have enough understanding and trust.
After a long time, Qin Sheng laughed involuntarily and said, "Uncle Yang, Uncle Feng, I really didn't expect you to have such a big appetite."
"How is this a big appetite? We're just taking advantage of the situation. Old Man Long has already lost his value. We don't want to continue fighting with the Qin Family because of this. This is an ending that no one wants to see. Don't you want Old Man Long to die? " Yang Yaozu said bluntly. They believed that the Qin family would definitely want to see this result. This was the only condition that could move the Qin family. As for the other benefits, they might just be additional conditions. However, without this condition, the Qin family would definitely not cooperate.
Qin Sheng said happily, "Both I and the Qin family want to see Elder Long die. But I always feel that something is wrong."
"You don't trust us?" Feng Xiangru squinted and asked.
Qin Sheng did not deny it and said bluntly, "To be honest, I really don't believe it. Who knows whether you're playing a trick or not? Maybe you've already discussed it with Old Man Long. It's very likely that it's a trap."
Feng Xiangru said unhappily, "Old Man Long has a grudge against the Qin family, but we have no grudge against the Qin family. In recent years, both of us have paid a certain price, but what benefits does it bring us? As you can see, we've suffered a great loss. It's all for Old Man Long. Are we stupid? "
"Moreover, Old Man Long has always wanted to end the Qin family's bloodline. It seems that he will win completely in this way. Otherwise, he would not have dealt with you one after another. Honestly speaking, if I hadn't tipped him off that time in the Sea of Bamboo in the south of Chuan, how confident would you be to survive? Do you think that Old Man Long would let go of such an easy opportunity? "
Qin Sheng thought for a while. Although he had set up the Sea of Bamboo in the south of Chuan, if Lao Chang and the others had not come to Chengdu at that time, and if his aunt had not been there, it might have been somewhat dangerous.
However, since his aunt had been there, it seemed that he did not need to worry about anything.
At this time, Qin Sheng responded, "Fine. Even if what you said is true, I always feel that you are trying to frame the Qin family. If you kill Old Man Long, the Qin family will be the scapegoat and pay a heavier price. Moreover, tell me first, what do you need the Qin family to do, so that I can rest assured."
Yang Yaozu said bluntly, "We don't need the Qin family to do too much. You just need to double the pressure on Old Man Long, so that we can find a chance. As for the thing that Old Man Long will frame the Qin family after his death, you can rest assured. We can guarantee that it is absolutely impossible. "
After Yang Yaozu finished speaking, Feng Xiangru added, "However, our request is that as long as Old Man Long dies, the Qin family, the Zhu family, the Song family, and the others behind them cannot continue to target us. In the future, we will mind our own business and go our separate ways. As for other things, you don't need to worry about them. We will give a reasonable explanation internally. "
Qin Sheng sneered and said, "That's it?"
Feng Xiangru replied, "What do you mean?"
Qin Sheng said aggressively, "You brought down the Chang 'an family and sent my father to prison. Do you want to let it go? If Old Man Long died because of what happened 20 years ago, who will be responsible for what happened to my father? "
Yang Yaozu asked thoughtfully, "What does the Qin family want?"
Qin Sheng said unhurriedly, "You have to compensate us, right? Besides, after Old Man Long died, can you eat so much? You have to give up some. "
What Qin Sheng said was already in Yang Yaozu and Feng Xiangru's consideration. As Qin Sheng said, after Old Man Long died, the Qin family would be in a mess. At that time, they would not have so much energy to eat them all. If they did not eat them, others would come to rob them. It was better to give them to the Qin family as a favor.
However, Feng Xiangru did not think that he would agree so easily. He said in a low voice, "We have to go back and discuss this matter. We are afraid that it is easier to invite them in than to send them away."
Qin Sheng took the initiative to throw out an olive branch as he said, "Hahaha, Uncle Feng, we still need to trust each other. The Qin family just wants Old Man Long to die. If Old Man Long dies, we may have a chance to cooperate, right?"
Feng Xiangru did not say anything. He just looked at the sophisticated young man in front of him quietly.
Yang Yaozu felt that the time was right and said directly, "This is a small matter. Let's talk about it later. If the Qin family has no other problems, I think there should be no problem with our cooperation."
"Who said there is no problem? There is still the biggest problem. "Qin Sheng suddenly said without any warning.
Hearing this, Feng Xiangru immediately got angry and said, "Qin Sheng, isn't the Qin family a bit too much? Do you really think that we are soft persimmons? We do this because we don't want to lose too many benefits. If we really fight to the death, the Qin family will not be able to get any benefits. "
Qin Sheng retorted, "Uncle Feng, do you really think that I don't know about your internal affairs? Old Man Long has already suspected that you leaked the secret of the Sea of Bamboo in South Chuan. Zheng's son also found some clues. Otherwise, why are you so anxious to cooperate with the Qin family?"
Qin Sheng was not afraid. Now, it could be said that it was clear at a glance who had the upper hand and who was the weaker one.
Although Yang Yaozu was also unhappy, he still calmed down and asked, "Then tell me, what is the biggest problem?"
At this time, Qin Sheng said slowly, "Our cooperation will not change. It can be said that nothing will change, but we will change what we do."
"How?" Yang Yaozu asked.
Qin Sheng sneered and said, "We will continue to put pressure on you, but you have to control your internal affairs and let the Qin family kill Old Man Long. This old thing has a blood feud with the Qin family. We must let him die in the hands of the Qin family. As for what will happen after his death, nothing will change. What do you think?"
After hearing this, Feng Xiangru and Yang Yaozu were stunned for a while. What did Qin Sheng mean?
They did not expect that they would not kill Old Man Long, but the Qin family would do it themselves.
But to them, this was a pleasant surprise.
Originally, they said that they would help the Qin family to kill Old Man Long, because they were afraid that the Qin family would refuse to cooperate. Therefore, they directly offered the bargaining chip that the Qin family wanted. However, they would definitely take risks. After all, they did not have the final say in their circle. If the matter was exposed, they would have to pay the price.
Now that the Qin family said that they would do it themselves, they did not have to take risks at all, which saved them a lot of trouble.
It was really a surprise. How could they not agree?
Feng Xiangru was overjoyed. He calmed down and said, "Oh, it turns out to be this. I thought it was a big deal. As long as Old Man Long is dead, it doesn't matter who killed him."
This was a typical case of taking advantage of others and showing off.
Yang Yaozu said honestly, "Are you sure that the Qin family wants to do this? Do you not trust us? "
"It's not that I don't trust you. It's just that this is the ending that the Qin family wants," Qin Sheng said disapprovingly.
Yang Yaozu took a sip of tea and said, "Since the Qin family wants to do it themselves, we will leave it to you. It will save us a lot of trouble and danger. We will cooperate with the Qin family fully."
At this point, the matter was almost over. It was meaningless to talk about other things. After all, they had to do it step by step.
Qin Sheng took the initiative to raise his teacup and said, "Let's replace wine with tea. It's a pleasure to cooperate with you. I will wait for your news. I hope it will not be too slow."
Feng Xiangru and Yang Yaozu also raised their teacups and said, "It's a pleasure to cooperate with you."
Since the matter was settled today, they were completely relieved. It was time for the disturbance to end.
Only the death of Old Man Long could completely end this disturbance.
