If he won, it would be natural, but if he lost, he would lose face.
This was Jiang Junling's current situation, just like last time.
He had already thought of this question. Why did he still come to Flower City?
Because he thought that he would definitely win this time. There was no possibility of losing at all.
"Why are you regretting it now?" Jiang Junling suddenly thought of this question.
With his intelligence, he quickly came up with an answer that was 99% true. Because he was afraid.
He was afraid that he wouldn't win, afraid that he would lose again.
Facing Fang Yan who was currently like a mad dog, Jiang Junling's strong heart loosened a little.
Thinking that he was actually afraid, Jiang Junling became truly angry.
This anger had nothing to do with others, but his disappointment in himself.
He was growing, and so was Fang Yan. This was something he had already guessed long ago.
He was no longer the normal Fang Yan, but so what?
The big picture is in the hands of the heavens, and I am the one who succeeds. Compared to himself, how many trump cards does he have?
This kind of negative emotion only lasted for a fleeting moment before it once again turned into a modest, proud, confident, and powerful General Ling.
Jiang Junling looked at Fang Yan and said: "Since we've known each other for a long time, I wish you success in martial arts — — however, I think we've both overlooked the real purpose of this meeting. We're here to trade, aren't we? "
"Can't be overlooked" Fang Yan smiled and said. He held Lu Chaoge's hand and said: "I brought the victim to the negotiation site to let you all feel the brutality and viciousness of those bandits. Look, how could they be so heartless as to lay their hands on such a beautiful and charming little woman? "
"— —"
Everyone present was speechless. Who the hell would look at whether the hostage was a beautiful woman before kidnapping? The main thing was to see how much profit they could get from the hostage, alright?
Fang Yan looked at Lan Shanggu and said, "Lan Shanggu, if it were you, would you kidnap such a beautiful woman and cut off her hair to paint with her scalp?"
Lan Shanggu was shocked and said, "Young master, don't joke with me like this. I am timid. I am a legitimate businessman in Loran Valley. I don't do anything illegal. That wouldn't last long, and it would be easy for him to fall into the ditch. Your whole body stinks. I'm afraid you've lost your life. "
Only now did Jiang Junling, Lan Shanggu, and the others learn about the details of the kidnapping. He thought to himself that Feng Xing and Kiang Long Tan, these two old freaks, were really capable of doing anything. They had also done the extremely cruel thing of painting on their scalps. No wonder Fang Yan had something on them that could be used to make them beg for death.
Since Fang Yan hated Feng Xing and Kiang Long Tan so much, today's negotiation was naturally to cut off a piece of flesh from Jiang Junling. However, he didn't know if Jiang Junling would give in or not.
If Jiang Junling wasn't willing to pay up, the fight between the two would become heated and protracted.
Thinking of his position between the two, Lan Shanggu wanted to cry but had no tears. Who did he offend?
Jiang Junling's eyes turned cold and said, "Don't use groundless things to confuse people. People will laugh at you if this gets out. "
Jiang Junling's eyes moved to Lu Chaoge's face and praised, "Miss Lu's hairstyle is very beautiful today. It complements your temperament, simple and elegant."
Jiang Junling countered Fang Yan's words with the truth. Didn't you say that they cut off Lu Chaoge's hair to paint on her scalp? Lu Chaoge's hair was still there, which proved that every attack on their character was a lie.
Fang Yan surely understood the meaning of Jiang Junling's words. He said, "Groundless things? If I was a little bit later, you wouldn't have the chance to praise Miss Lu's hairstyle and temperament today. "
Fang Yan raised Lu Chaoge's injured hand and said, "This dagger pierced through her palm. Even if it healed, an ugly scar would still be left on the back of her hand."
Fang Yan then untied the silk scarf that was tied around Lu Chaoge's neck to cover those scars, looked at Jiang Junling and said, "If I hadn't grabbed that dagger in time, Feng Xing's throat would have already been cut."
The look in Lan Shanggu's eyes turned complicated.
He finally understood the reason why Fang Yan asked him to stay.
At the beginning, he thought that Fang Yan asked him to stay on the scene to be a buffer, in case he and Jiang Junling started a fight without saying a word. If that happened, the negotiation wouldn't go on.
When he saw Fang Yan pick up the teacup in front of him and pour it towards Jiang Junling's face, he knew that he was wrong. Fang Yan didn't mean to negotiate with Jiang Junling at all. He was a madman who wouldn't even care about poking a hole in the sky. He didn't care about the power of the Jiang Clan at all.
Now he understood that Fang Yan asked him to be a witness.
To witness the scars on Lu Chaoge's body, and also to prove that Kiang Long Tan and Jiang Fengxing were the murderers behind the kidnapping of Lu Chaoge.
Before, when Fang Yan said this, some people didn't believe him. Some people even thought that this was a drama directed and acted by Fang Yan himself. He was vicious and merciless, and even the people closest to him were his pawns.
Now that Fang Yan showed up with Lu Chaoge, the meaning of his words was clear. These people were the ones who kidnapped Jiang Fengxing and Kiang Long Tan. Every word he said was true.
Otherwise, would Fang Yan really cut Lu Chaoge's neck a few times? Or would he stab the back of Lu Chaoge's hand with a knife?
Fang Yan wanted to borrow his eyes and mouth. He wanted to spread what he saw with his own eyes, to let the people of Huacheng know that Fang Yan wasn't as evil and treacherous as they thought. Most importantly, Fang Yan wanted those who followed him or had the intention to follow him to know that his character was not as bad as they thought or what the rumors said.
Every word and action of this guy had a hidden meaning. He really couldn't be underestimated.
As expected, if Lan Shanggu could think of it, Jiang Junling could think of it in advance.
Jiang Junling glanced at Lan Shanggu thoughtfully and said, "One side of the story, you can't take it seriously. If you really want to get justice for Miss Lu, why don't you send my fourth uncle and Uncle Jiang here, and let the three parties confront each other face to face. What's wrong is wrong, and what's right is right after all. No matter how good their acting skills are, how can they hide from the eyes of everyone here? In this way, even if they spread the word to the outside, they would have a more straightforward and clear understanding. Gu, don't you think so? "
Lan Shanggu laughed and said, "What's right is right after all, and what's wrong is wrong after all. I believe the truth will come to light one day. As long as people are still alive, the truth will never disappear. "
Jiang Junling smiled faintly. He knew that Lan Shanggu would give an answer that was biased towards Fang Yan's side. But whether or not to say it was very important. When Lan Shanggu spread the word, he still had to consider the attitude of the Jiang family on this matter.
"I think so too," Fang Yan said. "A country has its laws, and a family has its rules. If they break the law, they will naturally be handed over to the authorities to deal with. Oh right, when I came, I already sent those bandits to the police station. They are probably being interrogated now, right? "
Jiang Junling smiled without saying anything. He said, "Fang Yan, why can't we just get to the point? Why waste your time and mine like this? "
"You don't trust me to send them to the police station?"
"Of course," Jiang Junling said. "If you did, I would admire your selflessness."
Fang Yan smiled shyly and said, "You guessed it right. I really can't bear to send them to the police station. Jiang Fengxing is a big shot in the Jiang family. If he was sent to the police station as a kidnapper, the Jiang family's reputation would probably fall to the ground and be covered in dust, right? "
"You won't get any compensation either. Between the two of us, who will suffer a greater loss? "
"So, when Jiang Shangxin came to my house to ask for my help, I agreed to give you a chance. I have already stated the conditions, you can only do two things. Accept it or you have no choice but to accept it. "
"I want to confirm a few things," Jiang Junling said. "First, are they still alive?"
"Them? Which one? "
"My fourth uncle, Jiang Fengxing and Jiang Zhuliu's father, Kiang Long Tan. Are they still alive?"
"Oh, they tied him up and threw him into the vast ocean. When I tried my best to find him, I only saw Jiang Fengxing and a few of his helpers. After a fierce fight, I finally subdued them. I've never seen the Dragon Pool before, but I've never seen it before. I don't know if they were thrown into the deep sea by your fourth uncle because they couldn't split the loot evenly. I don't know how to swim. Even if I could, I wouldn't jump into the sea to look for them. What does his life have to do with me, right? "
Lan Shanggu's hand trembled slightly as he held the teacup in his hand.
Kiang Long Tan was already dead?
After Jiang Zhuliu's wedding, the Jiang family's reputation had been trampled into the abyss by Fang Yan. However, no one dared to underestimate the Jiang family.
Because the Jiang family had Kiang Long Tan, and because the Jiang family had the backing of the Jiang family. Who could guarantee that the Jiang family wouldn't be able to rise again?
If Kiang Long Tan was also dead, with just Jiang Zhuliu, would he be able to carry the Jiang family's banner?
Jiang Junling nodded and said: "In other words, Kiang Long Tan is dead?"
"I said I don't know."
"The Jiang family still has to bear the crime of killing Kiang Long Tan?"
"You don't have to bear it." Fang Yan said confidently: "If you don't want to bear it, then let someone else bear it. I don't like to force people."
"If that's the case …" Jiang Junling looked at Fang Yan and said: "I think your price is too high. We can only give you 10% of Longtu Group's shares at most. This is the highest price we can offer after discussing with Jiang Zhuliu. "
Fang Yan helped Lu Chaoge up and said: "As the victim's family, we refuse to accept such a humiliating price. Negotiation ends here."
Before he finished, he was already holding Lu Chaoge's hand and walking towards the door of the private room.
