MTL - Mysterious World, I Have Special Understanding-Chapter 237 The silver is in place, the gods are useless
Chapter 237 The silver is in place, the gods are useless
In the chilly spring, Ning Kuan, the second son of the Ning family, was walking on the long street in a warm robe.
This is the city of Linjing. Linjing and Linjing, as the name suggests, are next to the capital.
The bustling in the capital has not stopped here, and the bustling scenes can be vaguely seen.
The only street he walked was an exception.
This street is owned by the Ning family. Many years ago, the entire street was bought by the Ning family.
Because it is close to the capital and located in a prosperous place in the city, the rental income of the whole street is very considerable.
Before, Ning Chenghai was willing to give the whole street shop to the Zhao family, sincerity was enough, but the Zhao family did not buy his face.
But during this period of time, the streets that should have been bustling were very deserted.
Equally deserted, there is the second young master of the Ning family, Ning Kuan.
The Zhao family’s revenge really came. This long street shop that the other party did not accept had accidents one after another, either catching fire or being picked on by gangsters one after another.
The other party's revenge is very cunning, people can't catch it, but it's as annoying as flies.
After coming and going, the business of the shops can no longer continue, some closed their doors, and some simply quit and rented to other places.
Anyone can see that the Ning family has offended someone.
The stores that are still on the sidelines are naturally waiting for the Ning family's means.
The Ning family's business is so big, whether it is on the surface or secretly, it has something to do with it.
Looking at the desolate long street, Ning Kuan rubbed the center of his brows, and said to his subordinates: "Let the store owner cancel the lease, and the loss will be entirely on my Ning family's head."
When Ning Kuan said this, his expression was undoubtedly painful.
After confirming that the target of revenge was the Zhao family, the father resolutely decided to close the business.
This is tantamount to showing weakness to the Zhao family again.
Ning Kuan knows the value of this street, and what makes him uncomfortable now is not just that this industry will be barren, but the aggrievedness.
It should be the young masters of the Zhao family who shot this time.
Closing down a property in a street will not hurt the Ning family, but it is a pity that it is about face.
The Ning family's properties spread all over Dasheng Dynasty, so many businessmen are willing to mix with the Ning family because the Ning family is a big tree.
If there are many such things, then in the hearts of those people, the tree of the Ning family will fall.
At that time, it will be difficult for the Ning family to do business.
But after hearing his father's admonition, Ning Kuan had no choice but to forbear.
The stores that were still on the sidelines all sighed when they got the news.
Some of them have been doing business here for many years, and there are many time-honored brands among them. This move will inevitably hurt muscles and bones.
However, the Ning family gave them a lot of compensation, so they couldn't say anything.
Some storekeepers looked at the shop and started to cry.
Staying in one place for a long time, living here, will inevitably develop feelings.
One after another, some people dragged their families and left with their mouths, some bowed their hands to Ning Kuan when they left, and some left with tears in their eyes.
There are quite a few people who Ning Kuan is familiar with, and they will probably call him "Young Master".
For a long time, Ning Kuan has always liked the feeling of walking on this street, not only because it looks like a king is inspecting his territory, but also because he can't help but feel a sense of satisfaction when he sees the people here living a happy life.
It was as if somehow, he had a connection with these people.
The Ning family is a big tree, but the second young master of the Ning family likes to make such a big tree, what a pity
Looking at the backs of the departing people, Ning Kuan felt very sorry for these people for a moment.
He has loved doing business since he was a child, but his father said that he has a big flaw in being a businessman, that is, he is too emotional.
Ning Kuan's heart did not harden until he suffered some losses in the past few years, but his background is still the same.
That's why he feels uncomfortable at this moment, very uncomfortable.
At dusk, the setting sun stretched his shadow very long, making him look extremely pitiful.
As the wait-and-see shops walked away one after another, the whole street was completely dead silent.
"Master, it's all over." Said one of his subordinates.
Ning Kuan looked at the empty street and said, "Go get ready first, I want to stand for a while."
"yes."
The subordinate obviously knew that his master was in a bad mood, so he withdrew.
At this time, in an attic across the street, several young men in brocade clothes watched this scene with smiles on their lips.
"Second brother, are you relieved like this?" A young man in white asked.
In front, the tall and thin man wearing a jade crown said: "Look how pitiful the second young master of the Ning family is, have we gone too far?"
"Second brother, what is this excessive? It is the Ning family who embarrass us."
The young man in white waved his hand, recruited his subordinates, and said, "The second young master of the Ning family is so pitiful, give him another gift."
The three men all looked at him, and one of them couldn't help asking, "Fifth brother, what tricks do you have?"
At this moment, only a few bangs were heard, and the deserted street suddenly burst into flames, igniting the pavements along the street.
Ning Kuan's hair was blown by the heat wave.
He was quickly left under the protection of his subordinates.
Looking at the raging flames on the long street, Ning Kuan's eyes turned red.
Do you really want to do this?
Outside the long street, many onlookers appeared.
Some of these people were the ones who had left the shop before, some wanted to rush in to fight the fire, but were quickly stopped, and some were afraid for a while.
If they insisted on not wanting to leave before, the consequences would be unimaginable.
For a while, the crowd talked a lot, and the one who talked the most was naturally that the Ning family had offended a terrific person.
In the attic, those men in brocade clothes were happy for a while.
The young man in white laughed, pointed at Ning Kuan's back, and said, "Does that guy look like a dog?"
When the Second Young Master Ning Kuan returned to the mansion, he was in a dazed state.
And at this time, I happened to meet Ji Que and Ning Hongyu talking and laughing and going out for dinner.
During this period, Ji Que and Ning Hongyu, who had regained their freedom, lived a comfortable life for a while.
It can only be said that the capital is too prosperous, and there are too many delicious and fun things to do. As long as you have money, your happiness will double.
And it just so happens that Ning Hongyu is very rich, and the Ning family is very rich.
Ning Hongyu just wanted to say hello to the second brother, but the other brother just said "Get out of here" with a sullen face, and then left in a daze.
Ning Hongyu knows that her second brother is angry with herself and Ji Que, but she knows the other party's personality well, even if she is angry, she will never be so straightforward.
The feeling of being lost, as if he had encountered a great setback.
So she stretched out her hand and grabbed one of her second brother's subordinates, and asked, "What happened?"
The face of the servant was still stained with soot, and he said helplessly: "Miss, don't embarrass the little one."
"If you don't tell me, I have plenty of ways to know." Ning Hongyu said calmly.
The servant naturally knew the temperament of the only eldest lady in the Ning family, so he could only grit his teeth and say, "Something happened on that street in Linjing City."
After hearing what his subordinates said, Ning Hongyu knew that her second brother had been bullied in this way.
In other words, the Ning family suffered such humiliation.
"Aren't you going to fight back?" Ning Hongyu asked doubtfully.
The subordinate responded respectfully: "It's what the master meant."
Hearing this, Ji Que felt a little aggrieved.
During this time, because the Ning family had to rely on the Ning family to reach the pinnacle of wealth, and because of Ning Hongyu's relationship, Ji Que unconsciously regarded himself as half of his own.
Hearing that the pavement of a street was abandoned and burned, Ji Que's eyelids twitched.
How much silver is this!
In the elegant study room, there was a burst of ink fragrance.
Patriarch Ning Chenghai was writing, with Ji Que and Ning Hongyu standing beside him.
He didn't look up, but Ning Hongyu said directly: "Do you have to endure it like this?"
Ning Chenghai continued to write, writing very steadily, and said: "I can't bear to make big plans. As the saying goes, 'stretch out your hand and don't hit a smiling face'. Before the treasure house of the God of Wealth, you should temporarily avoid the edge."
After Ji Que and Ning Hongyu left, Ning Chenghai put down the pen in his hand, a cold light appeared in his eyes, and couldn't help cursing—"Zhao Wou-ki, I hate you!".
In the next few days, Ji Que and Ning Hongyu didn't enjoy eating and having fun.
The two of them have always been masters who have revenge. How could they have suffered such grievances.
Watching Ning Kuan turn from a spirited boy to a lost soul, even Ji Que felt sad.
However, the two decided to put the overall situation first, and the Ning family really needed to stabilize the situation first.
But within ten days, the situation they least wanted to encounter appeared.
Reached out to not slap the smiling face, but the Zhao family slapped them in the face again.
The shops on a street near the capital were closed, and most of them were burned. The Ning family chose to endure it.
However, their patience did not win the sympathy of the young masters of the Zhao family. The young men were still not happy, and resorted to tricks to sink several large cargo ships of the Ning family. been affected.
It was still in the elegant study room, Ning Chenghai was still writing, there were six people standing in the room, including Ji Que and Ning Hongyu.
"This time it's a cargo ship and a dock, what do you think?"
Ning Chenghai put down the pen in his hand, raised his head and asked.
The second young master Ning Kuan didn't speak, and neither did the other younger brothers. The atmosphere was terribly oppressive.
Finally, it was Ning Hongyu who broke the silence and said, "I can't bear it this time."
This is the voice of the Ning family brothers, but it is spoken by the younger sister.
Except for the relatively timid youngest, the rest of these young masters have been used to being complimented since they were young, so how could they have suffered such grievances.
Ning Chenghai said: "When my father was young, he followed your grandfather to travel all over the world. He always believed that he was a businessman in the right way. He didn't want or want to conflict with others, and he always believed in the principle of 'respect a foot, and I respect others'.
But there are some people who you shy away from, but they always think you are cowardly and push your nose even more. Businessmen have a temper.
The Zhao family is very powerful, but our Ning family is not the master that anyone can easily step on. "
One sentence from the head of the family basically set the tone for this matter.
"It's just that we have to plan how to fight. It's best to let him remember the pain and not dare to make trouble." Ning Chenghaisi said.
"Zao Wou-ki didn't make a move according to the rules, and it's inconvenient for me to do it, so you can figure it out."
The second young master of the Ning family was about to speak when Ning Hongyu said: "This matter has something to do with me, so let me do it."
Ning Kuan shook his head and said, "Don't meddle in this kind of thing when you're pregnant, let me do it."
Ji Que said, "I'll come."
"you?"
The young masters present all looked at him with distrust.
"When it comes to fighting, except for Red Fish, I should be better at it than all the brothers. Besides, Red Fish's business is my business, and the things that are difficult for her to fight are naturally left to me." Ji Que said seriously .
Ning Chenghai waved his hand and said, "Okay, I'll leave it to you."
"Father."
Ning Kuan wanted to speak, but his father stopped him with a wave.
"You go down first, Ji Que stays."
After that, everyone left, including Ning Hongyu.
Ji Que looked at Ning Chenghai and said, "Is there anything else that uncle needs to point out?"
"I know you have some tricks, but this is the capital after all, hidden dragons and crouching tigers, there are so many masters in the Zhao family, you must pay attention to safety when you do things. Also, although counterattacks should make them remember the pain, they must not be disrespectful. It's not good to have a sea of blood and deep hatred." Ning Chenghai said seriously.
Ji Que said: "Don't worry, I've always been very measured."
Ning Chenghai nodded and said, "If you need anything, tell Steward Li directly. If Steward Li can't decide, you can come to me directly."
Ji Que thought about it: "Uncle, can you give me some money first?"
"Silver, how much?"
"Four thousand taels."
"Four thousand taels of silver can make things happen?"
"Of course, with four thousand taels, there is nothing impossible." Ji Que said seriously.
In fact, Ji Que can't use four thousand taels, not even forty taels.
The reason why I want four thousand taels is mainly to add motivation to myself. In a word, if the money is in place, the gods will be useless.
In the chic courtyard, Butler Li is reporting information to Ji Que and Ning Hongyu.
"That is to say, whether it is the street in Linjing City or our boat, it was all done by the fifth son of the Zhao family?" Ning Hongyu asked.
"Yes, we have checked, and they are all his subordinates. The fifth son of the Zhao family is a concubine, and he has always wanted to please the second son of the Zhao family. It is reasonable to like to be the first bird in this kind of thing."
Ji Que nodded and said, "Okay, that's him."
Butler Li couldn't help reminding: "The fifth son of the Zhao family has a master of natal realm following him, so it is difficult for us to find out the specific whereabouts."
Ji Que said: "Don't worry, senior, I will take care of the rest myself."
Steward Li left the small courtyard where Ji Que and Ning Hongyu were, and went straight to the study of the owner Ning Chenghai.
Ning Chenghai asked: "What do you think of Ji Que?"
Butler Li pondered and said: "Master, Ji Gongzi didn't mean to ask the masters in the family to help him this time. This kind of courage is enough. How to say, the old man doesn't trust him very much, but he can't see through him. I always feel that he has something , and it seems to be pretending."
Ning Chenghai couldn't help laughing, the wrinkles on his forehead stretched a bit, and said: "Even if you can't see through, then at least his superficial skills are in place."
"Do you want to send someone to follow?" Li Butler suggested.
"No need. Suspects don't need it. Employers don't doubt it. I'd like to see how far he can go." Ning Chenghaisi said.
"If he does this well, the old man is really willing to treat him as his own."
The latter sentence is Ning Chenghai's sincere words, but he didn't say it out, so the loyal old housekeeper naturally has no way of knowing his thoughts.
For so many years, the Ning family has formed a considerable force relying on financial resources. In fact, there are many masters in appearance in the family. It is only the four masters of qigong that are counted. Yu Yin.
Among his sons, there is often a lack of a character who can shock these masters.
After all, monks have always worshiped the strong. Ning Hongyu, a daughter, has potential in this regard, but she is a daughter, and she doesn't have much interest in family property.
As for Ji Que, he became more and more fond of him.
Especially the last few times, this kid just focused on talking about business, and didn't taunt him much, and he seemed much cuter for a while.
On this side, Ji Que has already taken action.
"Kaori, Kokaori, Kaka Kaori."
"Why are you screaming so nasty?"
"I need your help with something."
"Get out! My aunt is not in the mood."
"Ok."
"Wait, what the hell?"
