Shudi kimchi: pickle radish, soak tender ginger, soak cucumber, and soak cowpeas. There is cut bacon in a slightly larger plate next to it. It can be seen from the thin slices of bacon that the person who takes the knife has a good knife skills.
Just after Gu Huaiyi and Ji Kefeng finished drinking the porridge in front of him, Zheng Guoyuan put down his crutches and stood up, walked into the kitchen and brought out the can of steaming two-rice porridge, served another bowl for them, and then turned around and entered the kitchen.
Boil the firewood and heat the pan, wait for the pan to be spicy and oily, cut the onions, ginger and garlic, and wait until the oil is cooked to start stir-frying.
Soon, a plate of fried pork with bamboo shoots was brought out and placed in the middle of the table.
Faced with these foods, Tang Shuxing could only watch and lied that he had no appetite.
Zheng Guoyuan sat down again, picked up a piece of meat and put it into Gu Huaiyi's bowl and said, "This is the small tenderloin on the pig's body. The tenderest meat is much better than ordinary tenderloin. Bamboo shoots are the new bamboo shoots this year.
What you loved when you were a kid.”
"I did eat fried pork with bamboo shoots. I often ate them when I was a child. Was I still young at that time?" Gu Huaiyi smiled and looked at Tang Shuxing, "Do you know the meaning of fried pork with bamboo shoots? I'm so old that I'm not confused. He reminded me that I should be beaten.
Now!"
Fried pork with bamboo shoots is also the meaning of spanking. Tang Shuxing and Ji Kefeng both knew it, but they really didn't understand what Zheng Guoyuan's meaning is doing this now? What was he reminding Gu Huaiyi? Or was he striking the two of them indirectly?
"Do you believe the Mo Yueshu?" Zheng Guoyuan suddenly put down his chopsticks and asked, his eyes falling on Tang Shuxing.
Tang Shuxing just shook his head, he was not sure whether he should believe it.
Zheng Guoyuan nodded slightly and asked again: "Do you think I should die?"
Tang Shuxing was stunned and looked at Gu Huaiyi, not knowing how to answer.
"Many people say that if I die, the entire Southeast Asia will be purified, and the global drug market will also be hit hard, and the drug circulation will also be reduced by 60%. "Zheng Guoyuan began to clean up the dishes, "In fact, this
In two years, my business has suffered a major blow, and the circulation of ordinary drugs has been greatly reduced. New drugs have begun to occupy the market. They are all built by myself under the banner of giving people a short-term stimulation but not addictive.
The empire is collapsing, but this happens to be my intention.”
Is the collapse of the drug empire what Zheng Guoyuan wanted to see? Tang Shuxing didn't look at Zheng Guoyuan with his eyes, worried that the old man would read out his thoughts from his eyes.
"Do you know what these people outside are doing here?" Zheng Guoyuan pointed outside the passage and glanced at the other three young people beside the table. "They are here to beg me to lead them to open up new markets and take advantage of the situation in Southeast Asia.
When it is unstable, Idiots who lead their own army to conquer a world."
Tang Shuxing and Ji Kefeng were silent, while Gu Huaiyi continued to drink porridge and eat vegetables, and the food was very delicious.
"They were so naive that they thought that if they took over the entire Southeast Asia by relying on the army, they could build this place into the ideal drug kingdom. It was so naive that I didn't want to scold them because I couldn't teach this group of people too much.
If you are smart, otherwise my status will not be guaranteed." Zheng Guoyuan smiled contemptuously, "They think that conquering a world and becoming the dominant country can legalize drugs. This is a teenager who has read and read
Knowing the impossible. Let everyone make drugs? Don’t farm? Don’t develop agriculture or industry? What do people eat? Import them by the money from selling drugs? It’s ridiculous..."
Zheng Guoyuan stood up and walked to the door: "So, when the Last Day spread, they forced me to take action, first control Chiang Rai, then control the entire Thailand, followed by all Southeast Asia, relying on Shangdu's support to do whatever he wants, but this is
Looking for death sooner or later, it will be a dead end. If a rabbit is too impatient, it will have to bite people, let alone other countries that are deeply harmed by drugs. They still don’t understand. They just regard us as shields, use everything for the best use.
It will be completely eliminated after it is finished.”
"Many of my subordinates have secretly become believers of Shangdu Sect." Zheng Guoyuan held the door and closed his eyes. "I know that most of them did not really believe it, but just found a way out for themselves.
, This makes me not know whether they are really stupid or fake. They know how to find a way out, but believe that they can build their own country, dream of legalizing drugs and seeking the best interests."
"General, ask a risky question, do you know the harm of drugs?" Ji Kefeng took a deep breath and asked with courage.
Zheng Guoyuan turned his head slightly and said, "You should ask, 'General, do you know the profits of drugs'?"
Ji Kefeng glanced at Tang Shuxing and stopped talking.
"Enterprise is the key, and I can't see other harms before interests. This is the case with the market. On the surface, only when there is demand can there be creation, but to open up a new market, you must create something that others don't have, just like the UK back then
People like tea, as if they cannot survive without tea. China is the origin of tea. In the Victorian era, the United Kingdom continued to import tea from China, but no real method of growing tea was found, and China did not buy anything else from them.
Even very depressed, why do Chinese people use chopsticks without their knife and fork?" Zheng Guoyuan sat back, "Later, they discovered something called opium, which can make people addictive and make China like the UK.
Without tea, they cannot live, so the British began to smuggle opium, smuggling tens of thousands of boxes to China a year, so that the money they earn from opium would no longer have to use their reserves to buy tea."
Gu Huaiyi was full, so he deliberately burped loudly, then searched around, saying that he was looking for dessert, then found some fruit, put it on the table and started eating.
"The British don't know that opium is harmful? They know that they know better than anyone else. They prohibit opium from smoking in China, just like I prohibit my subordinates from taking drugs. As long as I find someone taking drugs, I will shoot him immediately." Zheng Guoyuan looked at the folding of the pilgrimage.
The bowls and chopsticks were raised, "But when we came to the Golden Triangle, we didn't think about doing this business. We claimed to be the teacher of justice, we claimed to counterattack, but Taiwan sold us and we fled everywhere, for the sake of
The shelter where he works for neighboring countries and acts as a mercenary, but in the end he will face the banishment.”
Zheng Guoyuan said, turning around and looking at the countless spiritual positions behind: "We began to die one by one. Everyone knows that if this continues, they will die sooner or later, and there will be no root left. Why are we the ones who die? We just obey the orders and obey.
Is the price of orders the cannon fodder? We must be independent, so we began to grow poppy and sell opium. Strangely, when we have money, the enemy began to surrender, and those in the surrounding countries once shouted that we would kill us.
The people also began to extend olive branches to us..."
Speaking of this, Zheng Guoyuan worshipped those spiritual positions: "God has eyes! God still stood on our side, allowing us to survive and become stronger and stronger!"
"But in the end you were still used by Shang Du and turned into puppets!" Gu Huaiyi didn't raise his eyelids, and he sarcastically sarcastically.
"Yes, we were used. In order to adapt to the new global drug market, we need to develop new drugs and open up a larger market. We began to cooperate with Pharmaceutical Fund. After becoming richer, we were still not satisfied. We decided to build a new one.
So we joined forces with other drug lords from other places to establish a Gu hunting ground. But we cannot let people know that Gu hunting ground is ours. We decided to let Gu hunting ground read power and have our own power and army, just like a tenant under the landlord
.But more and more secrets in the Gu hunting ground were dug out. We knew that we could no longer control the Gu hunting ground, and we could not control Shangdu. We could only watch them play with us, without any help." Zheng Guoyuan clenched
fist.
Gu Huaiyi hummed a song, while Tang Shuxing and Ji Kefeng remained silent.
While burning incense to the spiritual tablet, Zheng Guoyuan continued, "Many years ago, I had the idea of Sha Kun, so I surrendered and washed my hands and left my restless. But I didn't do it, and my subordinates would not agree, they would think of me.
If you make enough money, stop and ignore them. The drug lords around you are also peeping at my territory. When I don’t do it, I will immediately eradicate my family. Of course, Bafang and medicine will not let me go.
Because if I don’t wash my hands, it’s like showing weakness. If you show weakness, you will be eaten by others.”
Many things suddenly flashed through Tang Shuxing's mind. He now understood why, for a long time, Zheng Guoyuan, such a huge force, could not dominate the direction of important things. Perhaps this is the reason - Zheng Guoyuan does not want to participate in the subsequent events.
, so the forces dominated by Shangdu do not intend to bring him.
Therefore, Shangdu needs a new puppet, a puppet with a legal identity and can move freely around the world, that is, the arms dealer Sharman Dynamics Company.
"Sharman Dynamics replaced you?" Tang Shuxing couldn't help but say it.
"Yes, replacement is a relatively accurate statement." Zheng Guoyuan turned around and said, "Since someone brought the representative of this company to me, I knew I was about to be replaced, but I didn't have it.
A weapon, a bullet, comes from Sharman Dynamics, and I will not send money to them for sharp teeth that are watchdogs.”
"I believe it!" Tang Shuxing nodded. He understood that Zheng Guoyuan asked them to come, not to reminisce about the past with Gu Huaiyi and find family affection, but to seek some support from them. This big drug lord wants to save himself, and he wants to escape.
This vortex, because the situation has completely lost control.
“Soon we will be forced to control Thailand, and if I don’t do it, they will find someone to replace me and lead my army to do it. And, more than a year ago, they used our channels to sell to all over the world
That kind of corpse-turned drugs." After Zheng Guoyuan said this, Tang Shuxing and Ji Kefeng were greatly surprised.
It started selling a year ago? But why nothing happened?
"This kind of corpse-formed drug does not have a theoretical addictive name, but what is terrible is that the smoker will be controlled. Except for the person who has control over the perfume at hand, the rest are those who are given control ability. That is, Bafang and Medicine
There are ten people in charge of the Five Yangs and Five Yins of Jin." Zheng Guoyuan grabbed the table with his fingernails, "I sent someone to assassinate, but all failed, and no one could get close to those in charge."
Gu Huaiyi looked at Tang Shuxing with a strange smile this time, and the meaning seemed to be: If I knew that you were Aka Nan, the head of Wuyang in Bafang, would you kill you immediately?
"There are only four people in charge left in Bafang. One of them, Qingzhou, was killed by us in Astaya." Ji Kefeng said this sentence after seeking Tang Shuxing's consent with his eyes.
Tang Shuxing added: "To be precise, it is the premise that someone helps us."
"I'm old, tell me, why do you want to find us? What do you want to do?" Gu Huaiyi asked bluntly, knowing that Zheng Guoyuan had laid a long opening remark before - starting with a faint family affection, followed by self-destruction of weakness, and then a shallow one
Talking about history and seeking sympathy for our compatriots, and finally we told us to plan to reform ourselves, hoping that everyone would give us a chance.
Zheng Guoyuan smiled and slowly turned his head to look at Gu Huaiyi: "I am going to make a deal with you, my grandson!" As he said that, Zheng Guoyuan picked up an apple and handed it to Gu Huaiyi, adding, "Dear grandson!
Blood is thicker than water!”
"You mean that the fat water does not flow from outsiders. Are you going to let us do this big profitable deal?" Gu Huaiyi took a bite of the apple, deliberately threw it on the ground, staring at the rolling apple on the ground, "I've been bitten and then
Will you eat apples that fell on the ground? I won’t."
"I can. I will choose to eat when I am about to starve." Zheng Guoyuan picked it up, wiped it with his sleeve, and then bit it down.
At this time, in the eyes of Tang Shuxing and Ji Kefeng, this was not a dialogue between grandfather and grandson at all, but a game between two strangers for the sake of interests.
"But I'm not hungry." Gu Huaiyi looked at Zheng Guoyuan with a smile on his face.
"It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter if you don't do it, then do you do it?" Zheng Guoyuan looked at Tang Shuxing and Ji Kefeng, and without waiting for the two of them to speak, then said, "I know what you want, I know you are looking for your father."
"General, the matter has come to this point. In fact, it doesn't matter whether we look for our father or not." Tang Shuxing smiled, "So, the price you gave is not high."
"Tang Shuxing, I have investigated your background in depth and know that you are not a simple person, because many people around me who have been born as gangsters, and I know very well that the guys who have traveled through poor streets and alleys are not simple people!"
Zheng Guoyuan looked at Tang Shuxing and wrote their father's name on the table with his hands, then said, "When you find your father, you will know that big secret from them. If it is timely, you can save a lot of things and avoid it.
More people sacrificed in vain, but...but...but must be fast! Otherwise that secret will not be a secret."
An ominous premonition suddenly surrounded Tang Shuxing. He realized that perhaps everything that happened now had something to do with the secret they learned. What was it? Is it really related to the secret weapon of Shangdu? They accidentally
Have you mastered the method? Or is there something else...
"General, I have to know what you need us to do, right?" Tang Shuxing put his hands on the table. "What is the reason why people who are not doing business block their goods with cloth to make people guess?" (
