Chapter 616 Heroes come out of youth since ancient times
“Well, I’ll be down right away.”
Jiang Chen, who had calculated the time to come back from the hotel gym, changed his clothes and went out, going downstairs.
A Rolls-Royce Phantom parked at the door.
Jiang Chen opened the door and sat in.
“Bang.”
The car door closed.
“Where to go?”
“Haojiang Governor’s Mansion.”
Jiang Chen raised his eyebrows slightly.
This is the importance of your network.
It is self-evident who lives in Haojiang Governor's Mansion.
To the general public, that is a figure who only exists in the news.
"Who will help us?"
"No."
Lan Peizhi's response was clear and concise, leaving Jiang Chen no room for fantasy.
Phantom activated.
Jiang Chen was not disappointed and adjusted his sitting position to a comfortable position.
"Then he probably won't help others, right?"
"Although he has a good relationship with He, he can't get involved in the gambling competition, and he won't Intervene.”
Jiang Chen nodded.
Politicians.
They are all exquisite.
Although the He family is now the largest family in Haojiang, it will be different if they lose their gambling license.
The gambling cards are the foundation of this land. Whoever holds the gambling cards can become the master of this land.
Through a simple exchange with Lan Peizhi, Jiang Chen already understood the theme of this visit.
Put yourself in the other person’s shoes. The wisest thing to do is undoubtedly to stay out and watch.
Even if you don’t expect the other party’s help, you still have to make the necessary gestures when you go to the mountains to worship the Buddha, and when you come to this land.
This is polite and respectful.
“Have you been staying in the hotel these two days?”
Lan Peizhi asked a rare question. This kind of concern for her was really hard-won.
“No.”
Jiang Chen smiled and said: “After looking around, have you been here? In fact, some places here are quite beautiful.”
As soon as the words came out of his mouth, Jiang Chen knew that he had asked nonsense.
How could the other party have such a leisurely mood?
“Didn’t you go to the casino?”
Jiang Chen shook his head.
"You are so good at gambling, wouldn't it be a waste of talent if you don't play for fun."
Jiang Chen laughed dumbly and was very humble, "I don't have any skills. In Las Vegas It’s just good luck, but good luck will not always favor the same person. And someone told me that a smart gambler will never sit at the card table himself.”
Thinking of Vera, Jiang Chen. He couldn't help but turn his head: "It seems that some people from the United States have also been attracted."
"Not only the United States, but also the Ji family in Canada."
"Ji family?"
Jiang Chen had never heard of it.
“The founder of the Ji family is Ji Huaitang, a Chinese. He left his hometown and went to Canada in his early years. There he united a large group of Chinese and engaged in the shipping and casino business. Now after three generations, it has developed into Canada. The largest gambling company, known as the gambling king of Canada, Ji’s status in Canada is like He’s to Haojiang.”
On the road of life, you always need a mentor.
In school, someone needs to teach you how to read and write, and the same is true outside of school.
Just like pushing a window open, Jiang Chen understood the world a little more.
“We are really visitors from all directions.”
He sighed.
“You should be able to see it later.”
"Who did you see? Someone from the Ji family?"
Lan Peizhi acquiesced and added: "There is also Song Chaoge."
"Song Chaoge is here?"
< br>Jiang Chen is not surprised.
What is supposed to come will come.
And this time I came to Haojiang, to be honest, I came just for the other party.
"He arrived a step later than you. On the day he came to Haojiang, he went to He's Manor."
"He is quite courageous. He came to rob people of their belongings and even dared to come to the door. I am not afraid. I'm going to prepare a Hongmen Banquet with eight hundred swords and axes," Jiang Chen teased.
"Coming with him is Guo Anle, the youngest son of the Guo family in Hong Kong City."
It should be that he knows that Jiang Chen doesn't understand, so the last explanation should be Added deliberately.
Lan Peizhi seemed to know Song Chaoge's whereabouts very well.
"Song Chaoge probably wants to cooperate with He."
"Cooperation?"
Jiang Chen inquired with his eyes open.
We are all foxes with thousands of years of experience. They know so many inside stories, so there is nothing surprising about them.
“Given the current situation of the He family, it is basically impossible to keep all three gambling cards. Song Chaoge probably wanted to use this to persuade the He family to transfer part of the benefits.”
“It’s easy to ask the gods. It's hard to send someone away." Jiang Chen followed the words and said, "Let Song Chaoge step in and slowly eat away at it. It's hard to say whether Haojiang will be named He in the end. Boiling a frog in warm water is quite a clever move."
Jiang Chen didn’t say the second half of the sentence.
Very clever.
It’s also quite insidious.
But if it were him, he would definitely do the same thing.
The dove occupying the magpie's nest is the most gentle and labor-saving. At best, it just takes a little more time.
The man who always likes to wear a pair of black-rimmed glasses must not be an impatient person.
"If He really agrees, I'm afraid it will be troublesome."
Jiang Chen deliberately looked worried.
Actually.
Not to mention the two families joining forces, even if all the forces coming to Haojiang join forces this time, he doesn't care.
Competition in gambling does not mean that the one with the best will win, but the one with the highest price will win.
As deep as the funds are, Jiang Chen can slap the table and copy the classic lines of a certain movie.
I am not targeting anyone, I am saying that everyone here is rubbish.
Lampe's silence.
After all, she didn’t know the specific strength of the “angel investor” she attracted.
There is indeed a possibility of union between the He family and Song Chaoge.
This is not to say that the women who are now in charge of the He family are fatuous and short-sighted.
But given He's current situation, there is no better choice.
It’s like the greatest conspiracy in history.
Sometimes, even if you know it is a fire pit, you still have to bite the bullet and jump in.
Which is the lesser of two powers that harm each other.
It is better to lure a wolf into the house than to be divided up by a group of tigers and leopards.
The Phantom drove into the heavily guarded Haojiang Governor's Mansion.
It is also the apparently most powerful center in this land.
"Miss Lan, welcome, please follow me."
Jiang Chen followed Lan Peizhi and was led by the governor's staff into a bright reception room.
The two are not the only visitors today.
After entering the reception room, Jiang Chen saw several people already sitting on the high-end sofa seats, including a few familiar faces.
"Mr. Song, what a coincidence."
He showed a warm smile and said hello first.
Song Chaoge, who was talking to someone, turned his head and saw Jiang Chen and the two of them. A suitably surprised smile appeared on his handsome face even if he wore mediocre glasses.
"Brother Jiang, I didn't expect you to come too." "Miss Lan and I will come together."
Jiang Chen is harmless to humans and animals.
Song Chaoge looked at Lan Peizhi, smiled and said hello, "Aunt Lan."
"Please sit down, please."
Lan Peizhi was silent. He nodded and sat down at the seat assigned by the staff.
Of course Jiang Chen sat next to him.
Besides Song Chaoge, Geng Long was also there. Besides the two of them, Jiang Chen paid extra attention to a man who looked about thirty years old.
When he and Lan Peizhi came in, Song Chaoge was chatting with this man, which showed that this man was no ordinary person.
Noting Jiang Chen’s gaze, the other party nodded kindly.
Jiang Chen smiled back.
The further you go up, the friendlier the people you meet will become.
Even Genglong was very polite when they first met.
Perhaps this is the so-called city mansion.
Even if I hate you deeply in your heart, you will still smile on the surface.
"Miss Lan, nice to meet you, I am Ji Zhaohua."
The man looked at Lan Peizhi and said with a smile.
Without Lan Peizhi’s introduction, Jiang Chen instantly understood the identity of this man, a member of the Ji family in Canada.
Look at this magnanimity.
Where like competitors.
"Is Mr. Ji's health okay?"
Hearing this, Jiang Chen didn't move much and sat calmly on the soft sofa chair, but he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows. .
It seemed like this was the first time he heard Lampezhi speak in such a tone.
"Grandpa is in good health. Thank you Miss Lan for your concern. Originally, he wanted to come back to see him in person this time, but after all, he is old and his family is worried, so he couldn't make the trip, so I can only do it for him. "
Canada is different from the United States. Most of them are Chinese, and their ancestors left China, but Ji Zhaohua is quite fluent in Chinese.
Haojiang has visitors from all over the world this time, but those sitting in this living room are all with yellow skin and dark eyes.
It can be seen that the governor-general who has not yet appeared, even if he does not want to offend anyone, he still invites people to be guests.
Jiang Chen did not forcefully seek a sense of presence. He sat quietly beside Lan Peizhi and listened. His gaze could not be suppressed and fell on the face of Geng Long, who was also silent.
He found that the other party was also looking at him coincidentally.
Jiang Chen smiled slightly.
The corners of Genglong's mouth raised slightly, seemingly in response.
“Everyone, I’m really sorry. I’ve been in some physical condition recently and I’m feeling better today.”
The parlor door opened again.
The owner of this official residence finally walked in.
Characters whom I had only seen in the news suddenly appeared before my eyes. It was indeed an unreal sense of trance. But after all, Jiang Chen was no longer the college student who had just walked out of school. He quickly adjusted his mentality. , followed by everyone in the reception room including Lampe, stood up to greet him.
“I’ve been waiting for a long time.”
The top official of this gambling city has no pretensions and is like an approachable and amiable elder.
"He Shou, is it okay? Do you need me to contact you..." Song Chaoge immediately asked with concern.
He Shou waved his hand, "It's an old problem. I can only take care of it slowly. Chaoge, when you came here before, I was seeking medical treatment. Don't mind if you make the trip in vain."
< br>Song Chaoge smiled and said, "The words of congratulations are serious, I still have to feel the words of congratulations, so that we can have the opportunity to get together."
These words are somewhat meaningful.
Originally, certain things were only suitable for private chat, but now this arrangement is obviously inappropriate.
He Shou didn't seem to hear anything, and smiled peacefully, "Indeed, my place is rarely so lively. Why are you standing here? Sit down."
He Shou raised his hand, and then looked at the empty room. He walked towards the main seat, his complexion was rosy, and he looked like he was ill at all.
They are all cunning foxes.
Jiang Chen sighed secretly and sat down again.
"Seeing you, I really have to admit that I am getting old." He Shou put his hands on the armrests of the sofa and sighed: "The future will belong to your era."
"Congratulations You can't say that, we young people still need experienced seniors like you to guide us."
Ji Zhaohua smiled and said: "When I came, grandpa specially asked me to visit He Shou. , saying that He Shou has a lot of things that I can learn from. "
He Shou laughed, "Mr. Ji is too praiseworthy, and when it comes to learning, I should learn from him, but it has always been us. The pride of the Chinese people."
"How are you, Mr. Ji?"
"Ankang, thank you for your condolences."
"That's good. If you have a broad mind and are naturally strong, if you raise an outstanding descendant like you, I believe Mr. Ji will live a long life."
People who reach the top in every field have their own uniqueness strengths.
What a beautiful scene.
After exchanging pleasantries with Ji Zhaohua, He Shou turned his attention to Lan Peizhi again, not neglecting anyone.
"Miss Lan, you are such a rare guest."
Hearing the other party call Lan Peizhi this way, Jiang Chen felt a little strange. After all, although he is not old, this Haojiang man The top officer is also approaching sixty years old.
Of course.
Jiang Chen also understood that this was out of respect.
This further shows Lampezhi’s influence.
“I didn’t want to bother He Shou, but this friend of mine wanted to invest in Haojiang, so I brought him here to listen to He Shou’s advice.”
Lan Pei's clouds are light and the wind is gentle.
Hearing this, no matter how deep the city is, the eyes of the people in the living room can't help but change slightly.
Including Jiang Chen.
He resisted the urge to turn his head, and once again understood the power of this Blood Guanyin more deeply,
The purpose of gathering them all together at the same time, and congratulating the first, was to avoid Talk about card gambling.
Everyone understands this tacitly.
But this person turned a blind eye and directly pierced the window paper.
Everyone’s eyes immediately focused on Jiang Chen’s face.
He was the only one who followed him into the living room. Who else could be the friend that Lampezhi mentioned besides him.
At this time, you can better experience the city of a person like He Shou. After a brief silence, he did not show any displeasure, and his smile remained amiable.
"Of course I welcome investment in Haojiang, but I'm not very good at business matters, so I'm afraid the suggestion would embarrass me."
As he spoke, he looked at Jiang Chen: "Now the inland areas are still open. What a wonderful person, what do you call him?"
"Hello, Heshou, I am Jiang Chen."
I am Jiang Chen.
Instead of my name being Jiang Chen.
One word has a completely different meaning.
The corners of Lan Peizhi's lips curved in a slight, almost imperceptible arc, seeming to be satisfied with Jiang Chen's concise but not simple opening remarks.
Song Chaoge looked at Jiang Chen, who was neither humble nor arrogant, and adjusted his glasses.
Ji Zhaohua’s eyes flashed quietly when they met for the first time.
Genglong’s face was expressionless.
He Shou's eyes also became a little strange.
"Jiang Chen."
He nodded and muttered silently, as if he had remembered the name, and then smiled: "You should be in your twenties, right?"
< br>Jiang Chen nodded and smiled, "Yes, congratulations."
"Since ancient times, heroes have been born young."
He sighed.
"Buzz..."
A vibration sounded.
Genglong, who had muted his voice in advance, took out his cell phone.
First there were a few missed calls.
Then came text messages.
“Boss, we are here.”
At this time.
Haojiang Airport.
A few slovenly "tramps" walked out of the airport, looking around curiously as if they had never seen the world.
Everyone passing by gave me strange looks.
