Chapter 232 The truth of the matter (2)
After a moment of silence, Wang Kaixuan suppressed his chaotic thoughts, pointed to the rope that fell to the ground, and asked in confusion: "Since you have discovered The baby who can hide his body successfully knocked me down, so why do you still pretend that nothing happened? "
This is something that he couldn't understand very much, he said at the time. It's not an exaggeration to let others take advantage of them. Why do these people bother to make excuses and make mysterious disappearances?
Hearing Wang Kaixuan's question, Shen Rong glanced at him subconsciously. He was about to say something, but before he could say anything, Chen Ziyan had already given him the answer:
< br>"Fat man, because they are not sure about leaving here, they think you or we know the way to leave, so they want to let you lead the way in this way."
"The best way to know what you want to do alone never involves coercion or inducement."
"Damn it, these bastards are really looking up to the fat man!" Wang Kaixuan instantly said After understanding the meaning of his words, I couldn't help but laugh at myself.
He knew that Chen Ziyan was right. It was impossible for him to willingly lead the way. Even if he agreed, he would just go wherever there was danger!
Seeing this, Shen Rong added softly: "Yes, Ma Laoer just wants to create a tense and oppressive atmosphere through mysterious disappearances, thereby forcing the fat man to find an exit as soon as possible."
He is also a thief. He didn't mention a word about himself and put the whole thing on the head of that old man.
Chen Ziyan could see Shen Rong's purpose, and a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, intending to prick his heart, and said: "I'm afraid his purpose is more than that. Aren't you guys regarded as being disposable at any time?" "
Actually, Chen Ziyan didn't know what Ma Laoer thought, but that didn't stop him from deducing his thoughts based on the facts.
Besides, as long as it is logical, he can say no no matter what he wants.
Even if Ma Laoer decided to abandon Shen Rong and his gang at the last moment, or he had no intention of abandoning them, but he just hadn't had time to rescue them yet.
But are these still important now?
Even if he is still affectionate and righteous, people like Shen Rong have already made the decision to surrender, and the established fact is already here.
Didn’t you see the undetectable gleam in Shen Rong’s eyes after Chen Ziyan said these words?
Obviously, this person has murderous intentions towards those people. If there is a chance, only one of them can go out.
Under Chen Ziyan's gaze, Shen Rong responded in a low tone: "Yes, he should have planned to take the opportunity to get rid of us from the beginning."
Just like what Chen Ziyan thought In that way, it no longer matters to anyone what the facts are, so Shen Rong decisively used Chen Ziyan's words to position himself as a victim.
In this way, no matter what they say after leaving here, or whether they find an opportunity to take action against Ma Laoer's group of people, at least in the hearts of the seven of them, their actions do not violate morality at all.
Didn’t you see that the guys next to Shen Rong also showed similar expressions of hatred after hearing this?
This is enough for Shen Rong.
"It is indeed a character!" Seeing this, Chen Ziyan thought silently in his heart.
However, he did not continue to speculate on Shen Rong's thoughts. He put these things behind his mind and continued to ask: "By the way, tell me about the origins of you people?"
Although Chen Ziyan knew that these were all for him, he really didn't know the details of the other party.
Originally, he planned to find someone to inquire after he returned to the capital, but now that he had this opportunity, there was no need to give it up.
When Shen Rong heard him ask this, he hesitated for a moment and then gave the answer: "I think Mr. Chen should already know that we are also from the capital. To be more precise, the mastermind behind us is Even from the capital."
He used a little rhetoric here, trying to pave the way for what he said next.
Chen Ziyan nodded noncommittally, did not speak, and just motioned for Shen Rong to continue.
Seeing this, Shen Rong continued: "If you count them all, we have a total of six waves of people. I don't know if there are any secretly. Most of these people have disappeared in the underground passages. The only ones who actually came here are It’s just me and Ma Laoer.”
“I am the peripheral handicap under Mr. Qiao of Cangzhen Pavilion, and Ma Laoer is the manager of the Sun family in Liulichang.”
This. This short sentence contains a lot of things.
The peripheral handicap and the handicap manager are two completely different concepts, just like one is affiliated and the other is a direct lineage.
Chen Ziyan knew what Shen Rong meant by saying this, which was to tell him that he was not that close to the person behind him.
After all, the peripheral handicap thing is just the same thing. At best, it is a cooperative relationship, and at worst, it is a subordinate relationship, but it is definitely not a direct lineage of the core.
The two sides are only connected by interests, but in fact there is not much friendship.
However, Chen Ziyan was too lazy to ponder whether this was true or not. His attention quickly focused on what Shen Rong said.
"Second Master Qiao...Sun Family of Liulichang..." After repeating these two names, Chen Ziyan clicked his tongue and said, "They are not a soft spot!"
The former He had some impressions, but he couldn't recall too specific information at the moment. He only knew that it was an old Yuanliang, but if the latter guessed correctly, he should have some relationship with Liu Lisun in the stolen pen.
Speaking of Liu Lisun, although there is not much written about him and his appearance is only for the needs of the plot, this person is not simple at all.
But it’s right to think about it. How could he be a simple person who could become a big boss among the big bosses in the capital circle twenty years later?
What's more, although I haven't understood the name of the Sun family of Liulichang in depth, if you think about it, you will know that it can definitely represent the family of Liulichang.
You must know that nowadays, Liulichang is the top spot in Beijing’s antique circle. Panjiayuan, which has just had some weather, is not a little worse than Liulichang, which originated in the late Ming and early Qing Dynasties. Half a point.
But what Chen Ziyan couldn’t figure out was why he was from Liulichang?
He originally thought that the people who were jealous of him would be the rising stars of Panjiayuan.
Because their base is in Panjiayuan, these people will be the most severely affected, but they did not expect that it would be Liulichang, which is less affected.
Wang Kaixuan was also surprised by what he heard and asked: "Why are the people in Liulichang just making fun of it?"
He heard from Da Jinya that there are many people in Liulichang there. Many of the time-honored brands with deep foundations have some relationship with the manufacturing office of the previous dynasty. Although they are enemies of Panjiayuan in the same industry, there is no conflict between them, and they are more about sharing their needs.
As soon as Shen Rong heard what the two said, he knew that they didn't know the hidden truth, so he explained to them: "Mr. Chen, Fatty, in fact, there are far more people here than just us. However, those with weak foundations were intercepted by people from Panjiayuan.”
This unexpected news made Chen Ziyan feel very surprised: "Pan Jiayuan's people stopped him?"
He really didn't expect that it was just that the imaginary enemy didn't show up, but he actually took the initiative to stop him. killed the enemy.
This was really something he didn't expect. Logically speaking, even if the people on Panjiayuan's side didn't stumble him, they would have no reason to secretly help him.
Seeing Chen Ziyan's puzzled expression, Shen Rong continued: "Actually, the reason why they did this is very simple. They want to use Master Chen's help to break Liulichang's plan."
Shen Rong then told Chen Ziyan that in recent years, due to geographical location and other factors, Panjiayuan, which was originally just a gathering place for retail investors, has grown by leaps and bounds and has a faint tendency to surpass Liulichang. And once Panjiayuan really replaces Liulichang and becomes the center of the capital's antique circle, it will not be a good thing for the deep-rooted bosses of Liulichang.
Even if it doesn't break their bones, it will threaten their status in the circle.
After all, there are only so many people who can stand on the top of the mountain. If someone goes up, someone needs to come down.
When that time comes, Panjiayuan will inevitably cause a major reshuffle in the capital and even nearby areas.
So they came up with a way to turn Panjiayuan into the second Liulichang!
No matter how many stragglers there are in Panjiayuan, they will never become a phenomenon. The ones that really have the right to speak are those brands that have become a phenomenon.
In this way, the big bosses of Liulichang united with some people to secretly promote the development of Panjiayuan and clearly divided the cakes on the plate early.
This is a game of chess, a game called profit division.
But what they didn't expect was that just when everything was going in an orderly manner and according to plan, Chen Ziyan entered the field like a wind and thunder.
Not only did they sell a lot of good stuff one after another, they even built a private museum near Panjiayuan, which undoubtedly ruined their plan.
Those big bosses were just waiting to swallow their share as the cake was about to be served, but when Chen Ziyan interfered with it, things suddenly changed.
There is always a shortage of smart people in Panjiayuan. They knew about this in the past, but they were not strong enough and had no way to do anything about it. But now Chen Ziyan, who has strong capital and sufficient supply of goods, has stepped forward. , then naturally he kept making various small moves, and began to use this to seek benefits for himself.
So while those people at Liulichang were dealing with these people, they wanted to teach Chen Ziyan a lesson, so that he would understand what he could do and what it was best not to touch!
After listening to Shen Rong narrating the twists and turns, Chen Ziyan was unable to complain.
Why didn’t he know that he had become a pioneer in resisting Liulichang’s monopoly?
The same goes for Liulichang. Can't you send someone to have a chat? Give him a piece of cake. Wouldn't it be nice for everyone to be friends happily?
When the time comes, we will join forces and become bigger and stronger.
Thinking of this, Chen Ziyan looked at Wang Kaixuan: "Fat man, do you think the brain circuits of these people are abnormal?"
Although he felt powerless, he still complained. .
Originally, he thought that he had disrupted the market, and because the things he sold attracted greedy eyes, he was sent to target him.
But now he was told that there was such an inside story behind it, which really made people don't know what to say.
This is not greed, it is clearly a struggle between two camps, okay!
And the most important thing is that as the person involved, I don’t know anything about it. This is so outrageous!
It’s so outrageous that he opened the door for me, it’s so outrageous!
Wang Kaixuan was also speechless and complained: "What the hell is this? Everyone knows what is going on, but we brothers are still kept in the dark."
Chen Ziyan looked at Shen Rong and asked with some disbelief: "I can understand that I have a lot of good stuff, but what does it have to do with my unprofitable museum?"
< br>He could tell from Shen Rong's words just now that he could be called the pioneer of those in Panjiayuan and had a deep relationship with this museum.
Hearing Chen Ziyan's question, Shen Rong smiled bitterly and said: "The museum has nothing to do with it, but a private museum that can be settled in the capital has a great influence. What it represents is really too great. More, especially since Mr. Chen has his own store, which will soon become a benchmark for antique shops in the capital."
When Shen Rong talked about this, he was also cursing himself in his heart. Mr. Qiao above.
Actually, he didn't want to take this job from the beginning, but he had no choice but to be controlled by others. But even so, he just wanted to go through the motions and never thought about doing anything to Chen Ziyan.
As he said before, there are many museums in the capital, but there is really no private museum that can display illuminators or even national treasures openly.
What is hidden here can be seen by a knowledgeable person at a glance.
Seeing Chen Ziyan's thoughtful expression, Shen Rong continued: "As the saying goes, birds of a feather flock together. Although there are many battles in our industry, it is difficult to fight alone for long. You can imagine how complicated the relationship is."
He was reminding Chen Ziyan from the side that his current situation can actually be regarded as a faction of Panjiayuan, and it is precisely because of the big shots behind the scenes. Only a guy would target him.
"This is interesting..." Chen Ziyan murmured in a low voice.
He was not thinking about Panjiayuan and Liulichang at this moment, but was thinking about his own museum.
Without Shen Rong’s words, Chen Ziyan would not have realized the specialness of his museum.
He simply thought that this was a museum he applied for according to the system, but now that he thinks about it, he is afraid that there may be some inside information that he doesn't know about.
Otherwise, why don’t those deep-rooted masters of Liulichang also come out?
Although they may not have as many large tombs as I know, their family wealth over the years is still extraordinary, and they are fully capable of supporting a museum.
But there's no point thinking about it now. The answer to what exactly happened can't be found until we return to the capital.
Seeing that Chen Ziyan remained silent, Shen Rong did not continue.
Actually, there was one thing he didn't say, that is, if Chen Ziyan wanted to go further and more steadily, it would be best to separate the store from the museum, at least without any apparent connection.
Otherwise, this will become a hidden danger sooner or later.
But Shen Rong thought about it in his heart and did not say it out loud because he had no need or obligation to remind Chen Ziyan of this.
No matter how good Chen Ziyan's life is, it has nothing to do with him, and if Chen Ziyan fails to let them go in the end, then it will be a good thing for him if his life is not good.
