This was the Bund!
No matter how stupid Yan Chaozong was, he already knew that Qin Sheng and Lin Su were not ordinary friends. Qin Sheng sent flowers every day, met up with her every few days, and sent Lin Su home every time. If there was no problem with this, he could only say that he was too naive. Even he did not receive such treatment. The most important thing was that Lin Su did not reject him.
Therefore, Yan Chaozong sent someone to warn Qin Sheng and also to test him. He did not come in person because he did not want to make a big fuss and also did not want Lin Su to dislike him. However, if he did not do anything and let them go to that stage, he would be embarrassed and become a joke to many people.
The man in front of him was a master of the Yan family. Therefore, when facing Qin Sheng, he was fearless and spoke in a condescending manner. After all, he represented Yan Chaozong.
How could Qin Sheng not guess who had sent these people?
Other than Lin Su's number one protector, Yan Chaozong, he really could not think of anyone else. Moreover, when Qin Sheng knew about Yan Chaozong, he knew that this day would come sooner or later.
"There's no need to respond so impulsively. I can give you three days. Three days later, I will look for you. At that time, I hope to hear the answer I want." The middle-aged man sneered. Anyway, he was only here to pass on a message. It was okay even if he rejected. As long as his master did not say anything, he would not act rashly.
"Even if it's three days later, this will still be my answer. Tell the person behind you that if I like Lin Su, that's my business. If he also likes Lin Su, he can pursue her with his own ability. Who Lin Su chooses in the end, that's her freedom. No one can control her choice," Qin Sheng said firmly.
"Newborn calves are really not afraid of tigers. I understand." After saying this, the middle-aged man directly turned around and left.
Qin Sheng stood still and fell into deep thought. Obviously, Yan Chaozong had started to take action. If Yan Chaozong used a soft approach, it would be fine. If he really used a hard approach, it would be really troublesome. After all, his biggest support, Jiang Xianbang, was not in Shanghai. Even if he was in Shanghai, he might not be able to resist the pressure from the Yan family.
Therefore, what he needed was Lin Su's choice. If Lin Su really chose him, then no matter how capable Yan Chaozong was, he wouldn't be able to do anything to him. At that time, if Yan Chaozong still continued to pester them, they could choose to develop in other cities. The Yan family wasn't that capable.
In the evening, after Qin Sheng returned to Shilin Huayuan, he called Jiang Xianbang first and asked him how things were going in Hong Kong. Jiang Xianbang smiled and said, "Everything is going well, except that I'm very bored. I went to Macau twice and lost some money."
Qin Sheng was speechless as he said, "It seems that you are really bored."
Jiang Xian Bang had bought a lot of property over the years. In the early years, he had bought three villas in Hong Kong. Now he was living in Repulse Bay, which was a famous wealthy area in Hong Kong. The housing prices were ridiculously expensive. After Jiang Xian Bang arrived in Hong Kong, he had been living here. He had hired a professional security company to protect him. There were bodyguards everywhere he went. In addition, there were naturally beautiful women accompanying him. Otherwise, these lonely and unbearable days were indeed a little boring.
"I don't have enough funds here. Recently, I'm waiting for the funds in China to arrive. I'm preparing to do something overseas," Jiang Xianbang said thoughtfully.
Qin Sheng frowned and said, "It seems that there's news. Are you preparing to withdraw from the country?"
"Not really, I'm just taking precautions. During this time, Old Xu has been helping me deal with the assets and property in China. Losing some money is nothing. As long as I'm still alive, after the matter is over, I can still go back," Jiang Xian Bang said truthfully.
Although Jiang Xian Bang said it very lightly, Qin Sheng felt that it must be that the matter was getting more and more serious, which led to Jiang Xian Bang having to make such a choice. Moreover, with the current financial policy, whether it was hot money or black money, it was easy to come in, but it was extremely difficult to go out. Jiang Xian Bang was equivalent to a clearance sale.
Qin Sheng did not expect that as soon as he returned to Shanghai, he would encounter two disturbances in a row. First, it was Han Guoping, then it was Jiang Xian Bang. They were both influential figures for many years. Unfortunately, in the end, something happened to Han Guoping. Han Guoping was more miserable and chose to commit suicide. Jiang Xian Bang was a few levels higher than him and had a towering tree behind him. That was why he could escape and watch the tigers fight.
However, for Qin Sheng, this was not good news. After Jiang Xian Bang left Shanghai, he would lose his biggest backer. Everything had to start from scratch. Although Qin Sheng was very unwilling, he had to accept this fact. After all, even if there was a benefactor to help him, he also had to have the ability.
"Well, what about Shangshan Ruoshui?" Qin Sheng said thoughtfully.
For Jiang Xian Bang, Shangshan Ruoshui was just one of many industries, so he did not care about it. He said casually, "Recently, a friend has already consulted me and is considering it. However, I also recommended you to him. Even if it is transferred to someone else, you can still continue to stay in Shangshan Ruoshui."
"It has to be Boss Ye?" Qin Sheng asked subconsciously.
Jiang Xian Bang was not surprised and said, "It seems that Lao Ye has contacted you. You can meet Lao Ye. He and I have been good friends for many years. Although we do not usually contact each other, he can help at critical moments."
"Okay." Qin Sheng then understood. No wonder Boss Ye wanted to find him. It turned out that it was Jiang Xian Bang's recommendation. But then he said, "Besides Boss Ye, are you not considering anyone else?"
"Who? Tell me," Jiang Xian Bang said curiously.
Qin Sheng said bluntly, "Sister Xue also wants to take over Shangshan Ruoshui. If Sister Xue can become the boss or one of the bosses, then I can have a firm foothold in Shangshan Ruoshui."
"It seems that you have been getting along well with Qingyan these days. It is good that you have reached this stage. If Qingyan is really interested, you can ask her to contact me. I want to have a good talk with her. But her brother's identity is too special. I am afraid that she will have scruples." Jiang Xian Bang said meaningfully. He knew what Qin Sheng meant. Qin Sheng and Qingyan were close. If Qingyan took over Shangshan Ruoshui, Qin Sheng would be guaranteed freedom and status there. But if Lao Ye took over, it might not be so easy. After all, Lao Ye and Qin Sheng were not familiar.
Jiang Xian Bang was right. This was exactly what Qin Sheng was concerned about. Qin Sheng chuckled and said, "Okay, then I will ask Sister Xue later. If she is interested, then she will contact you."
"Help me pay more attention to Qinger. Accompany her when you are free. I am going to ask her to come to Hong Kong. I don't know if she is willing." Jiang Xian Bang sighed. He was also forced to do this.
Qin Sheng did not know whether to laugh or cry. He said, "She and I are enemies in the previous life. I will not see her if I can. As for letting her go to Hong Kong, it depends on what she thinks. I can't do anything about it."
"Okay, don't talk nonsense. It is late. I am hanging up." Jiang Xian Bang laughed and scolded. His mistress next to him had already begun to act coquettishly. The girls in Hong Kong were much more open than the mainland. As long as they were willing to spend money, there would naturally be people who would take the bait. After the phone call, Qin Sheng came out of the bedroom. Chang Baji had not slept yet. He was watching TV. This uncle loved to watch some outdoor star reality shows and funny variety shows. He was so old, but still liked to chase stars. It really made Qin Sheng speechless.
"Why do you look so worried?" Chang Baji put down the remote control and asked casually.
Qin Sheng sighed and said, "Jiang Xian Bang's matter is a bit serious. Now they have begun to transfer assets. Shangshan Ruoshui is also among them."
Chang Baji could not help but frown. This was not a small matter. Both of them now relied on Jiang Xian Bang to make a living. He stood up and said, "What are you going to do? Does he have any arrangements for you? "
"I am not sure at the moment. I will take one step at a time." Qin Sheng shook his head and smiled bitterly.
The sun rose, but life still had to go on. Sometimes people should be prepared for danger in times of peace, and sometimes they should not worry too much. Qin Sheng was indeed ambitious, but after all, he had to be down-to-earth. To be able to stand at the top of the pyramid of this city, didn't it take decades to reach that step? Some of them even experienced generations of struggle. He had only returned to Shanghai for a few months. Why would he think so much? Moreover, the current him was much stronger than many people in this city.
The business of Shangshan Ruoshui was still not doing well. However, today there was a guest who was Qin Sheng's acquaintance. It was Zhao Zixi, whom Qin Sheng met for the first time when he went to Jiang Xian Bang's garden house. Qin Sheng had long known that he was also a member of Shangshan Ruoshui, but he had never seen him come here before. This time when he just arrived, he directly called for him.
Yu Fengzhi received Zhao Zixi and immediately informed Qin Sheng to come over. Qin Sheng quickly went upstairs, where Yu Fengzhi was introducing the rules of Shangshan Ruoshui to Zhao Zixi.
"Brother Zhao, what a rare guest. What brings you here?" Qin Sheng pushed the door open and said with a smile.
Zhao Zixi was dressed more formally. He had an outstanding temperament and the most important thing was that he was even more experienced. No wonder he could sit together with many old big shots like Jiang Xian Bang. Obviously, he was not the kind of second generation who only relied on the family background. Yu Fengzhi also felt that Zhao Zixi was different, so she took the initiative to receive Zhao Zixi personally. However, she did not expect that Zhao Zixi and Qin Sheng actually knew each other. But thinking about it carefully, it was not surprising.
"Since you didn't ask me out, I could only shamelessly take the initiative to come to you." Zhao Zixi joked, which was considered to be giving Qin Sheng enough face. To be honest, Qin Sheng was really not in his league. Jiang Xian Bang asked him to take care of Qin Sheng, so he came over to take a look.
Qin Sheng hurriedly said, "Brother Zhao, you must be joking. I have been very busy these days. I was just about to ask you out."
"I was just joking. I happened to pass by today. I heard from Uncle Jiang that you were here, so I came over to talk to you," Zhao Zixi said truthfully.
Qin Sheng laughed and said, "Thank you for thinking about me, Brother Zhao."
Yu Fengzhi was still standing next to him. Qin Sheng felt a little uncomfortable, so he nodded to Yu Fengzhi. Yu Fengzhi then left, but before she left, she stared at Qin Sheng, but Zhao Zixi did not see it.
After Qin Sheng sat down, he poured tea for Zhao Zixi and the two chatted. Qin Sheng did not have any questions. Zhao Zixi also did not take the initiative to talk about Jiang Xian Bang. The two maintained a tacit understanding.
