The mountainous areas on the outskirts of Sijiu City had always been a good place for most of the people in the city to cool off in the summer. Every summer, it would be packed with people. This was the same for cities with mountains in the suburbs. It was the same for Qin Sheng when he was in Xi 'an. During the weekends in the summer, the mountain roads would sometimes be blocked. Fortunately, Qin Sheng lived at the foot of Zhongnan Mountains when he was a child, so he was familiar with the roads there.
The middle-aged man arrived first. He found a pavilion and waited there. After Qin Sheng arrived, he went straight to the pavilion. From afar, he saw the middle-aged man in his 50s. His hair had already turned white. He wore a pair of gold-rimmed glasses and was dressed more casually. He looked like a rich tycoon.
Behind Qin Sheng were Chang Baji, Wu Ge and Ba He. Chang Baji was extraordinary, while Wu Ge and Ba He were more normal. At least they looked more capable and powerful than the two bodyguards of the middle-aged man. In fact, there were four or five bodyguards of the Qin family scattered around to prevent dangerous people from entering.
After Qin Sheng walked over slowly, he smiled and took the initiative to extend his hand politely. "Qin family, Qin Sheng."
"Zheng Jinhao, of the Zheng Family." The head of the Zheng Family, who seemed to have a good temperament, responded politely. He did not look down on Qin Sheng just because he was a young man. Although he did not know the specific identity of this young man in front of him, the Old Master had said before his death that the Zheng Family could have what it was today thanks to Old Master Qin's righteous help. Without Old Master Qin, the Zheng Family would not have had its current glory.
However, the Zheng family had also paid a price for what they had today. That was, the Zheng family had promised Old Master Qin that they would become the guardian family of the Qin family. When the Qin family was in danger, they would do their best to help the Qin family and would not go back on their word. However, this was the only time.
After so many years, the Zheng family had become the boss of the business world from an ordinary family. However, Old Master Qin had never appeared again. Even Old Master Zheng, who had promised them, had passed away. Before he died, he told a few of his descendants about this matter, including his eldest son, who was now the head of the Zheng family.
Zheng Jinhao didn't take this matter seriously at the beginning. After all, he wasn't the person involved. Moreover, so many years had passed. He didn't even know whether Old Master Qin was still alive, let alone where the Qin family was. Therefore, he didn't care much about it. In order to let his father die in peace, he agreed without hesitation.
It had been a few years since the death of the Old Master. Zheng Jinhao had long forgotten about this matter. However, he did not expect to suddenly receive this call that even his father had not waited for. The Qin Family, which had helped the Zheng Family to overcome the crisis and rise up, had suddenly appeared. Zheng Jinhao panicked for a moment. He hung up the phone and discussed it with his peers in the family before calling Qin Sheng back.
After Qin Sheng and Chang Baji revealed their identities, it was easier for them to negotiate. Qin Sheng looked back at Chang Baji and the others and said, "You can wait outside."
Zheng Jinhao also followed closely behind. He waved his hand at the two bodyguards to signal them to leave the pavilion. There was no need to worry. After all, the Zheng family was indebted to the Qin family. The relationship between the two families was quite long, so there would not be any accidents.
After everyone left, Qin Sheng said straightforwardly, "It seems that you already know my identity?"
Zheng Jinhao nodded silently and said, "Of course I know. When my father passed away, he mentioned this matter. However, we didn't take it to heart. It didn't occur to us that such a day would come. It seems that the fate between our two families is still there."
Qin Sheng smiled faintly and said, "Since you know, you naturally know why I'm looking for you, right? After so many years, the Qin family has never looked for you. The Zheng family also didn't deliberately contact us. However, I think you are very clear about why the Zheng family has today. Therefore, it's time for the Zheng family to repay our kindness. "
Qin Sheng didn't deliberately exchange greetings. He was just testing the Zheng family's attitude. After all, so many years had passed. It was all about his grandfather. It was uncertain whether the Zheng family would recognize the Qin family, let alone help the Qin family.
However, when the old man was still alive, the guardian family took the initiative to help the Qin family, which meant that many things were not necessarily true. Therefore, Qin Sheng had to first figure out their attitude and then adapt to the situation.
Naturally, Zheng Jinhao was very clear about these things. He smiled and said, "When my father passed away, he told us everything. Old Master Qin helped the Zheng family in those years. Naturally, the Zheng family dared not forget his kindness. Now that the Qin family has come to our door, it's time for the Zheng family to repay their kindness."
At this time, Zheng Jinhao hesitated for a moment and said, "I think the Qin family is not an ordinary family. May I know where the elders in the family are? Can we meet?"
At the beginning, Zheng Jinhao valued Qin Sheng because of the relationship between the Qin family and the Zheng family. However, now that they were talking about business, Zheng Jinhao naturally preferred to talk to the elders of the Qin family instead of Qin Sheng, who was a young man. This made him somewhat worried.
Hearing this, Qin Sheng replied, "It's okay. The elders in the family are busy. I can go and represent them. So you don't have to worry about anything."
Zheng Jinhao hesitated for a moment and then said, "Okay. Since you said so, I won't ask more. I want to know what the Zheng family can do for the Qin family. As long as it's within our ability, the Zheng family will definitely do our best."
Qin Sheng slightly frowned and said, "As long as it's within our ability? Do our best? It seems that my grandfather and the elders of the Zheng family said that in those years. The Zheng family can be what it is today because of the Qin family. Now that the Qin family is in trouble, the Zheng family should do our best. "
Hearing this, Zheng Jinhao laughed out loud and said, "Young man, we don't know what happened in those years. What we do now is our own business. The Zheng family owes the Qin family, and we definitely have to repay them. However, if it's beyond our ability, to be honest, the Zheng family can do nothing. After all, our ability is limited. We can't sacrifice the Zheng family for the Qin family, right?"
After Zheng Jinhao finished his words, Qin Sheng already understood the meaning of the Zheng family. It seemed that after the elders of the Zheng family passed away, the Zheng family did not take this matter seriously at all. Now it might be just a formality.
To be honest, Qin Sheng was more or less angry. However, he soon felt relieved. After all, these were all reasonable.
Therefore, Qin Sheng did not talk about these things anymore. He just asked with a smile, "Is the Zheng family in Beijing?"
"Yes, it's rooted in Beijing. Compared to the whole country, it's not bad," Zheng Jinhao replied with some doubts. He did not know what this young man called Qin Sheng meant.
Qin Sheng sneered and said, "Oh, but why haven't I heard of the Zheng family? I haven't seen you either. Logically speaking, it should not be. It can only be said that the Zheng family is not doing well in Sijiu City, right? Think about it. Based on what you said just now, I think the Zheng family will not be doing well. "
Qin Sheng's words were very impolite. It was obvious that he meant to insult the Zheng family. Zheng Jinhao was so old, how could he not understand it? He replied very impolitely, "Young man, what you said is a little too much. I can stand here and chat with you because of the relationship between our two families and the kindness that the Zheng family owes the Qin family. I, Zheng Jinhao, am not asking you for anything. Now, the Qin family is asking the Zheng family for help. Otherwise, how could the Qin family come to our door?"
From the beginning when they met, Qin Sheng had been quietly sizing Zheng Jinhao up. Although Zheng Jinhao looked like he was in his fifties and seemed to be very polite to him without looking down on him, all these were just a mask. This was because Zheng Jinhao had never really taken Qin Sheng seriously.
At first, Qin Sheng thought that he was thinking too much, and some things could be understood. However, when this man said these words, Qin Sheng confirmed his judgment. This man's vision was not high. It seemed that he thought that since the Qin family came to their door, it meant that the Qin family was not doing well as the Zheng family.
Tsk, tsk, tsk. If the so-called three guardian families of the Qin family were all like this, it would be too disappointing. It meant that grandfather's vision was not good back then. How could he find such a few families? Fortunately, at least one family had taken the initiative to help the Qin family.
"I want to ask the Zheng family for help?" Qin Sheng laughed out loud and said, "I call you Uncle Zheng out of politeness. Uncle Zheng, the Qin family came to the Zheng family because we want to ask you for help. However, the Zheng family owes the Qin family. It is only right and proper for you to repay the kindness now. Why do we need to ask the Qin family for help? "
Zheng Jinhao did not want to talk nonsense. He said impatiently, "I don't want to talk to you. Let your elders come and talk to me."
Qin Sheng did not want to waste time. Today, he only wanted to meet these so-called guardian families. Hence, he replied without hesitation, "You want to meet our elders? Haha, you are not qualified yet. "
"You …" This sentence could be said to be the biggest insult to Zheng Jinhao. Whether it was the Zheng family or Zheng Jinhao, they were doing well in Jing City. Many people respected them. Now that they were being humiliated by a young man, how could he not be angry? He pointed at Qin Sheng's eyes and almost scolded him.
However, he calmed down immediately. He felt that there was no need to fight with a young man, which would show that he was not broad-minded and shrewd. Hence, he put away his finger and smiled maliciously. "Tsk, tsk, tsk. From what you said, the Qin family is also doing well in Jing City. Since you said that I am not qualified to meet your elders, then tell me your elders' names. Let me see if I have heard of them."
Qin Sheng said playfully, "Do you really want to know?"
"You don't dare to say?" Zheng Jinhao asked.
Qin Sheng shook his head and said with a smile, "Forget it. It is not necessary. Even if I know, so what?"
Zheng Jinhao thought that Qin Sheng was scared and he was just trying to scare him. Hence, he smiled and said, "Haha, just say it. I am waiting. What is your elder's name? Let me hear it."
Qin Sheng squinted and said loudly, "Chang 'an Department, Qin Chang' an."
Zheng Jinhao subconsciously wanted to mock him. However, after hearing Qin Sheng's words, he came to his senses in an instant. He exclaimed and broke into a cold sweat. He was dumbfounded and looked incredulous, as if he had seen a ghost …
