Bao Fan was grateful to the Qin Family because everything he had was given to him by the Qin Family. Moreover, he knew more inside stories than many people. Therefore, even if the Qin Family was in turmoil now, Bao Fan knew what he should do.
However, Bao Fan's subordinates did not think so. They cared more about their own interests and future and would not think too much about the Qin Family. Even if Bao Fan was willing to be loyal to the Qin Family, they might not be willing to do so. They hoped that Bao Fan could make the right choice to ensure that their interests would not be harmed. Therefore, when the time came, they might force Bao Fan to do something.
However, the premise was that they had to figure out the situation of the Qin Family. However, even if Bao Fan told them, they might not believe it. Now that Qin Sheng was in Shanghai, they finally had a chance to ask him face to face.
Xu Zheng threw out such a tricky question and directly questioned Qin Sheng about the current big rumors. After Bao Fan heard it, he directly scolded him, "Xu Zheng, how dare you! Where is this place? It's not your place to behave atrociously."
Of course, Bao Fan was angry. Xu Zheng was his subordinate. If he questioned Qin Sheng like this, it would make Qin Sheng doubt whether it was his idea or not. It would easily destroy the trust he had built up with Qin Sheng.
Xu Zheng said disapprovingly, "Big brother, I just asked on behalf of my brothers. If you think I went too far, you can punish me in any way."
"You …" Bao Fan pointed at Xu Zheng and felt somewhat helpless.
At this time, Qin Sheng opened his mouth and said, "Uncle Bao, what are you doing? Why are you angry? Brother Xu is just asking casually. Didn't I say just now that you can ask any question? This should be the question that everyone is concerned about. It's okay, it's okay."
"Young master, please give us an answer," Xu Zheng said persistently.
Qin Sheng did not care too much about it. At least they were in Shanghai today and there was no problem on Bao Fan's side. Therefore, it did not matter if Xu Zheng asked this question. If this were in Shenzhen or the northeast, and others asked this question, Qin Sheng would think that today would be a Hongmen Banquet.
Qin Sheng stood up slowly, walked out of his seat, and walked to the tea artist behind him. He casually picked up a cup of superior oolong tea, turned around, looked at Xu Zheng and the others, and replied, "Brother Xu, who told you this news?"
Xu Zheng said calmly, "That's what people are saying. It's said that Master Qin has been arrested, and the whole Chang 'an family is in turmoil. As for our Qin Family, except for Shanghai, people in the northeast, Shenzhen, and other places are getting restless. Young Master, please tell us not to worry. Otherwise, why haven't we heard from Master Qin recently?"
Qin Sheng sipped his tea gently and said, "Given my current status, how powerful do you think the other party would be if he was caught? How powerful would he be if he wanted to hurt the Qin Family and the Chang 'an family? Do I still need you to guess? He reckoned that by now, the news, newspapers, and the internet had already covered it. Taking a step back, if the old man was really arrested, do you think I would still be standing here talking to you? Right now, I should be in Beijing presiding over the overall situation. How can I care about you guys? "
After Qin Sheng finished his words, everyone looked at each other and discussed in a low voice. It seemed to be true. What Qin Sheng said was not unreasonable. They also wondered why Qin Sheng came to Shanghai. How could he return to Shanghai at this time?
However, Xu Zheng did not stop there. He pressed on and said, "Young Master, you are right. But please give us the answer directly. We are all uneducated people and don't want to guess too much."
"Well, the truth is that the old man was not arrested. He was just assisting in the investigation. As you know, a big shot in the financial field has been in trouble recently. It is said that the old man has something to do with it, so he went to assist in the investigation. Moreover, this is not the first time that the old man has assisted in the investigation. It's just that this matter is a little tricky, so people spread the rumor. Besides, our Qin Family has been in Sijiu City for so many years. How can something go wrong so easily? "Qin Sheng said firmly.
He was just assisting in the investigation, not being arrested. However, when people heard the news, they inevitably felt shocked and doubtful. They were shocked because something had happened to Master Qin, and doubtful because they did not believe what Qin Sheng said.
Xu Zheng said thoughtfully, "Young Master, can we believe what you said?"
Bao Fan was a little annoyed and said, "Xu Zheng, I think you don't want to do it anymore."
In fact, Qin Sheng was very glad to meet them today. If not for this meeting, he would not know that the people below him had been so turbulent. This was still in Bao Fan's Shanghai, where he could suppress everything. But what about the situation in Shenzhen and the northeast now?
Qin Sheng could not help but feel a little scared.
"It's up to you whether you believe it or not. But I want to ask, even if something really happened to the old man, what do you want?" He had said all the polite words that should be said, and it was time for Qin Sheng to show his tough side. He said sternly, "Don't you recognize me? Or do you want to set up your own family? Who gave you the courage? "
Hearing this, everyone's face changed. Only then did they realize that they did not pay attention to Qin Sheng and only regarded him as a young junior. In other words, although Qin Sheng was the future heir of the Qin Family, he was after all not Master Qin.
"Young Master, calm down," Bao Fan immediately replied.
Xu Zheng and the others also said one after another, "Young Master, we didn't mean that."
Qin Sheng slammed the table fiercely and said angrily, "Now the Qin Family has not fallen yet, but you are already like this. If the Qin Family really falls, when the tree falls, the monkeys will scatter, won't the tree fall? I think you people have not figured out the situation yet. The reason why the Qin Family can come to this point today is not only because of luck. Even if the old man is gone, do you really think that you can have no scruples? I want to see who dares to stand out and rebel against the Qin Family at that time. If there is really such a person, rest assured that I will respect you. But at the same time, I will also tell you why the Qin Family is the Qin Family. "
Qin Sheng had been amiable just now, but now he was furious. They were two completely different concepts. At this time, everyone could feel how strong Qin Sheng's aura was. He was not like the young people of the same age at all, but more like Master Qin's aura.
The atmosphere instantly became awkward. No one dared to say anything, let alone question Qin Sheng.
At this time, the most suitable person to speak was naturally Bao Fan, and Bao Fan also spoke at the right time. He said with a smile, "Young Master, rest assured. I can swear that even if something happens to Master Qin, I will advance and retreat together with the Qin Family until death. If anyone dares to betray me, you don't need to do anything, I will directly kill them."
Today, he was originally testing Qin Sheng, but now things did not turn out as he wished. Xu Zheng replied in a hurry, "Young Master, don't think too much. We are just worried about the Qin Family. But as Big Brother said, no matter what happens, we will stand by the Qin Family."
"Yes, Young Master, don't worry."
"Yes, Young Master, how could we do that?"
"Young Master, don't think too much."
Everyone began to reply in order to show their loyalty in front of Qin Sheng. As for whether Qin Sheng was really angry today, they did not dare to speculate casually.
Qin Sheng suddenly laughed out loud and said, "Hahaha, sorry, sorry. I might have been a little harsh just now. Actually, I didn't mean that. Don't treat me like an outsider. How can I not believe you? Even if I don't believe you, can I not believe Uncle Bao? Let's not talk about this. Let's not talk about this. I'm still very happy to see you today. Let's not talk about these trivial things later. Just drink and don't go home until we're drunk. "
"Don't go home until we're drunk," everyone replied.
Therefore, under Bao Fan's mediation, the atmosphere was finally not so awkward. Although everyone had their own ulterior motives, at least it was lively on the surface. Everyone toasted and apologized to Qin Sheng to ease the tension. The meeting ended like this.
Lunch did not end until four o 'clock in the afternoon. The others left Dianshan Lake one after another. Bao Fan was not in a hurry to leave. He took Qin Sheng to a place by the lake to drink tea to sober up. The two sat by the window thoughtfully. They were both a little drunk, but not to the extent of being unconscious.
"How was it? What did you gain today?" Bao Fan asked with a smile.
Qin Sheng let out a long sigh and said, "Brother Bao, I have to thank you. If I didn't meet you, I really don't know how serious the situation would be."
"Why do you say that?" Bao Fan asked with interest.
Qin Sheng replied slowly, "This is still Shanghai with you. The group of people below are like this, but what about Shenzhen and the northeast? I can trust you, but can I trust He Yong in Shenzhen and Song Shixin in the northeast? I haven't even seen them, how can I trust them? "
Bao Fan took a sip of tea and said in a low voice, "Things may not be so difficult. It's all my subordinates' fault. If they offended you in any way today, don't take it to heart. I'll teach them a lesson later. "
"That won't happen. Brother Bao won't teach them a lesson. I should be more grateful to them for speaking freely," Qin Sheng said truthfully. If he was really suppressed by Bao Fan, he would not know these things.
Bao Fan frowned and pondered for a long time before saying, "Young Master, to be honest, it's better to be prepared for danger in times of peace. At least I know that He Yong in Shenzhen has a lot of ideas. He is in charge of some things in Guangdong and Hong Kong and Macao. If something happens to him, it will be a big blow to the Qin Family."
"Well, you're right." Qin Sheng nodded silently.
Bao Fan was very confused. "Didn't Master Qin leave a backup plan? Or did Gongsun not prepare for it? "
"I didn't care about these things before. I was only thinking about how to deal with the Old Man's affairs. Uncle Gongsun didn't let me get involved. However, after this time in Shanghai, I will definitely go back and have a talk with Uncle Gongsun. Otherwise, if something really goes wrong, it will be too late to regret it." Qin Sheng sighed sincerely. Although the Qin Family's current strategy was to wait, they could still make arrangements in advance secretly.
Bao Fan did not know why Gongsun did this. Maybe he had his considerations and scruples. However, the most important thing for the Qin Family now was not these. The most important thing was Master Qin.
Therefore, Bao Fan replied, "Young Master, these are not important. The important thing is Master Qin's affairs. As long as Master Qin is fine, no one dares to make trouble. Therefore, Young Master, you don't have to worry too much."
This time, Qin Sheng did not say anything. Who did not think so? But could the Old Man really be fine?
