Yang Yi's uncle was called Yang Tong. He lived in a dilapidated six-story building that didn't even have an elevator. Even the lights in the corridors were often broken. However, this old man was still willing to live here. For someone like him who cherished old times, it was fine as long as he lived comfortably. Otherwise, what was the point of living in a ten-million-dollar mansion?
The neighborhood was an old neighborhood, and the neighbors were all old people. Most of them were retired colleagues of this ministry. Walking, walking, and playing chess every day was more comfortable than anything else. This was a real retired life. A familiar environment, a familiar neighborhood, and a familiar rhythm of life were more important than anything else.
Although this was an old neighborhood, it was a real school district. Any house was worth millions. This was Sijiu City, and no one could do anything about it.
The neighborhood was full of private cars and electric cars. Zhao Anzhi asked the driver to stop downstairs, and then walked into the dilapidated building alone. She was very familiar with this kind of neighborhood because she lived in this kind of neighborhood when she went to Canada. Therefore, when she walked into this neighborhood, she felt very familiar.
Yang Tong's wife was not around these days. It was summer vacation. She went to her daughter's house to take care of her grandson. Yang Tong did not want to go so far, so he could only stay in Beijing. There was a nanny at home who cooked and cleaned every day, so there was nothing to worry about.
After a few seconds, the nanny of the Yang family came out and opened the door. She smiled and asked if it was Ms. Zhao. After getting a positive answer, she let Zhao Anzhi in.
In the living room, Yang Tong had already made tea. He smiled and welcomed Zhao Anzhi. The nanny said politely that she was going out to buy things. As a nanny in such a big family, how could she not know what to do? Otherwise, she would be fired in a few days.
Zhao Anzhi said lightly, "Yang Tong, I haven't seen you for more than 20 years. You have aged a lot."
"Sister Zhao, you are also old," Yang Tong replied with a smile. Then, he invited Zhao Anzhi to sit down and personally poured tea for her.
Yang Tong and Zhao Anzhi were not considered old acquaintances, nor did they have a deep friendship. It was just that Zhao Anzhi had seen him many times when she was in the country before, so they could be considered to know each other. After all, Sijiu City was only so big in the past. At the same time, this group of people who came from big families would, of course, see each other frequently. However, they all had their own different circles. Naturally, the military children like Yang Tong belonged to different circles.
Zhao Anzhi took the teacup and sighed. "I've been in Canada for more than 20 years. How can I not grow old?"
Before Zhao Anzhi went abroad, it was the Yang family's most glorious time. At that time, Yang Tong was definitely one of the most glorious hedonistic sons of rich parents in Sijiu City. Now, the Yang family had long declined, and Yang Tong looked just like an ordinary retired old man.
"It's fine as long as you're old," Yang Tong said politely.
Zhao Anzhi took a sip of tea and did not continue to exchange pleasantries. She did not want to waste too much time, so she said directly, "Yang Tong, you also know why I'm here today. These days, I've met with your Yang family six or seven times. It's time to give me a result."
"Sister Zhao, of course I know, but you also know that this is not a trivial matter, let alone can't be finalized in one or two days. I also hope that it can be done quickly, so please be considerate," Yang Tong responded with a smile.
Zhao Anzhi said happily, "In this case, then tell me, what's the meaning of our meeting this time?"
"Sister Zhao, of course this meeting is meaningful. Our Yang family has decided to sell all the shares of Chang 'an System to the Qin family. This is our final decision." Yang Tong did not perfunctory, but gave the most direct answer.
Zhao Anzhi was a little surprised when she heard this, but she did not think that the Yang family would give in so easily. So she asked, "What about the price?"
Yang Tong smiled and said, "The price, our Yang family is willing to make a concession and reduce it by another 2%. Sister Zhao, is that okay?"
"2%?" Zhao Anzhi heard this price and laughed.
For such a sky-high transaction, 2% was no different from no reduction at all. The most important thing was that the price offered by the Qin family was still far from the price offered by the Yang family. How could the Yang family be sincere? The Yang family was not sincere at all.
So Zhao Anzhi said bluntly, "Yang Tong, since I have discussed this matter with your Yang family again and again, it shows that our Qin family really needs the shares of the Yang family. You also know why we need it. But if you take advantage of the burning house, then I don't think it's necessary for us to continue the discussion. We will not be a fool for such a small amount of shares. What's more, we all know why the Yang family has been so stubborn. You are waiting for Brother Six to make a price, right? But as far as I know, Brother Six has not made a move and has not contacted the Yang family at all. So now you can't wait any longer, so you suddenly give in. Do you think our Qin family is stupid? "
"Sister Zhao, you can't say that." Yang Tong shook his head and smiled bitterly. They were all old foxes. Obviously, it was impossible for the Yang family to cut a piece of meat from the Qin family. Uncle Six's indifference disrupted the Yang family's plan and made the Yang family become passive. Yang Tong was also somewhat helpless. Who knew it would be like this?
Zhao Anzhi did not want to continue to argue with the Yang family. She stood up directly and said, "Yang Tong, I will say it for the last time today. If the Yang family wants to sell the shares in your hands, then the price of the Qin family shall be the standard. If the Yang family is not willing to sell, then the Yang family can continue to hold it. As for whether you support Brother Six or remain neutral at that time, it is meaningless to the Qin family."
"Sister Zhao, don't be impulsive. We can continue to talk." Yang Tong comforted Zhao Anzhi.
Zhao Anzhi pressed her step by step and said, "There is no need to talk anymore. Tell me, are you selling or not?"
The Yang family was not simple, and the Qin family was not simple. Both sides had already figured out each other's trump card. It depended on who had the initiative. This initiative would change according to the situation. Now that the Qin family had the initiative, the Yang family had no chance to choose.
If they sold, they could only sell it according to the price of the Qin family. If they did not sell, they could only smash it in their hands. Anyway, Master Liu would definitely not buy it. The actual situation of the Yang family was that the Yang family wanted to avoid a possible storm.
Yang Tong fell into deep thought. The Qin family did not have much time, and the Yang family did not have too much time. If Master Liu did not make a price, the Yang family could only choose to sell to the Qin family.
Yang Tong thought about what he had deduced that night. If that thing really happened, the Yang family wouldn't even have the chance to sell it, let alone sell it to the Qin family. Therefore, the Yang family had to make a choice. Yang Tong's choice was to sell it to the Qin family at the Qin family's price.
Just when Yang Tong was about to speak, the phone on the table suddenly rang. At this critical moment, the urgent ringtone was a little abrupt. Yang Tong saw that the caller ID was his nephew, Yang Yi. He was a little unhappy and directly hung up the phone. Then he looked at Zhao Anzhi and said, "I'm sorry, Sister Zhao."
Zhao Anzhi did not say anything and waited for Yang Tong's reply.
At this time, Yang Tong's phone rang again. This time it was still Yang Yi. Yang Tong frowned and thought about what Yang Yi wanted. Usually, if he took the initiative to hang up the phone, Yang Yi would definitely not continue to call if there was nothing urgent. Just when he was hesitating whether to answer the phone or not, Zhao Anzhi's phone also rang.
They looked at each other tacitly and smiled a little embarrassedly. Yang Tong took the initiative to pick up the phone and walked to the balcony. In this way, Zhao Anzhi could also answer the phone. She took out the phone to see who was calling and found that it was Qin Ran. She answered the phone without hesitation.
On the balcony, Yang Tong had just answered the phone. Before he could question Yang Yi, he heard Yang Yi gasping and shouting, "Uncle, something bad happened. Something bad happened. Look at the news. Qin Changan was arrested."
When he heard the news, Yang Tong's mind instantly went blank. The worst possibility had really come, and it was earlier than he had expected. The Yang family did not have time.
When the storm started, no one could be spared.
In the living room, Zhao Anzhi also answered the phone. On the other side of the phone, Qin Ran was already crying and crying. "Auntie, something bad happened. My father was arrested."
Arrested?
Zhao Anzhi's face was pale. She was very clear about what Qin Ran meant by being arrested. Although Qin Changan had been arrested, he had only been assisting in the investigation. Even the announcement of the Chang 'an family to the public said that he was only assisting in the investigation. Assisting in the investigation did not mean anything. Many big shots had the experience of assisting in the investigation.
However, if Qin Changan was arrested, something bad must have happened.
After coming to her senses, Zhao Anzhi did not hesitate at all. She did not even have time to say goodbye to Yang Tong. She directly picked up her things, turned around, and walked away quickly. To the Qin family, this news could be said to be like a thunderclap. It directly crushed the already fragile Qin family. All the efforts of the Qin family in the past few months were in vain.
At this moment, everyone involved in this storm, which involved the Qin family and the Chang 'an family, had already known this news. It could be said that it was a pot of porridge. Everyone was busy. It was estimated that no one could tell what the situation would be like next.
Qin Changan had been arrested, which meant that the higher level of the game had already ended, which meant that the Qin family had lost.
In the siheyuan of the Qin family, before the news came, Qin Sheng, who had fallen asleep until 5 o 'clock in the morning, had not woken up yet. The first person to see the news was Brother Wu. Brother Wu's favorite thing to do every day was to read the news. When he saw this serious news on his mobile phone, his reaction was similar to that of most people in the Qin family. That was, his mind went blank.
However, the first thing Brother Wu did when he came to his senses was to rush to Qin Sheng's room in a panic. At this time, for the Qin family, time was more important than anything else. As the current helmsman of the Qin family, Qin Sheng had to bear all the pressure.
Night had fallen. No one knew whether the Qin family could see the dawn.
