The Ma family has gone through two generations, and Ma Shengcai's generation has obviously declined a lot. Although Ma Shengcai is not stupid, he obviously still lacks the ability to handle the rise and fall of the entire Ma family.
Ma Zhanshan must make plans for the future of the Ma family. This is his investment in the future. He has seized the natural condition that Luo Yun and Ma Shengcai are good friends, and may be able to draw a strong ally for the Ma family in the future.
Not sure.
Investment is bound to be accompanied by risks, but his current investment in Luo Yun does not require too much effort. Helping others when they are in trouble is the best investment.
Li Xiaoning lost, and she lost completely. She not only exposed her identity as the employer who hired a killer to assassinate Luo Yun, but she also successfully promoted the fusion of the relationship between Luo Yun and Ma Zhanshan.
This is completely different from Luo Yun's personal visit to make friends with Ma Zhanshan. Ma Zhanshan befriended Luo Yun because he was interested in his intelligence and potential. This was more effective than Luo Yun's proactive visit to show off and boast about himself.
The Ma family has always been dominated by men. Now that Ma Zhanshan was speaking, Li Xiaoning naturally did not make any rebuttal. If she spoke again, it would only anger Ma Zhanshan even more, so she chose to endure it.
Songjiang City is a mixed bag of fish and dragons, with many powerful forces. It seems like a peaceful paradise. In fact, it is because of the suppression of the city lord's palace and the Four Wastelands Academy that Songjiang City does not get out of control.
Even so, there are many eyes and ears here, and the eyes of various forces, large and small, are densely packed. Any small movement today may have reached the ears of another force the next moment.
The same is true for the friendship between Ma Zhanshan and Luo Yun. As one of the top forces in Songjiang City, the Zhao family certainly cannot miss this sensational news.
The Zhao family's mansion is a continuous building complex. The Zhao family does not have as strong financial resources as the Ma family, so their mansion looks relatively simple, but this is also relatively speaking.
If there were no Ma Mansion to match it, the Zhao Mansion must be as luxurious as any other force.
At this moment, in a manor of the Zhao family, a handsome young man in his early twenties was lying comfortably on a red sandalwood chair. Beside him were two pretty girls who were squeezing his shoulders and beating his legs.
This young man has a standard oval face, and his seemingly masculine face is slightly feminine, but this expression is particularly attractive.
Although the two girls kept serving him, they never took their eyes away from his face. It was as if there was a crystal clear jade in front of them, so they had to observe it all the time for fear of this beautiful jade.
It seemed like he ran away midway.
There is an indescribable temperament about him, as if he is a magnet, and his magnetism can attract any metal objects around him.
Suddenly, the door was kicked open heavily, and a boy of 16 or 17 years old ran in staggeringly. The sleeve of his right arm was empty, and it turned out to be Zhao Ciji, who had one of his arms chopped off by Di Xiu.
He was not recuperating in bed at this moment, but ran here in a panic.
"Brother, brother, something bad is going on."
The young man frowned and immediately made a gesture. The two girls reluctantly moved away. He was the eldest son of the Zhao family, Zhao Yu.
"What's the matter? You can't cause trouble for me while lying on the bed, right?"
"No, no, someone just told me that Ma Zhanshan and that bastard Luo Yun reconciled, and Ma Zhanshan personally invited Luo Yun to stay at Ma Mansion again."
"That's it?"
"yes."
"Then just roll to your bed and recuperate from your injuries."
It is hard to imagine that this is Zhao Ciji's brother Zhao Yu. It seems that he has nothing to do with Zhao Ciji's injury, and it is still so seriously injured.
"Brother, the people around that bastard Luo Yun are difficult to deal with. They want to join Ma Mansion, and we can't deal with them. My broken arm's revenge..."
When Zhao Ciji said this, the fire of hatred in his eyes seemed to burst out.
Zhao Yu shook his head and looked at his younger brother with a bit of hatred. Zhao Ciji seemed to have no other abilities besides flirting with women, and he didn't learn his lesson.
"You know that Black Wind Valley hijacked Li Shang's truck."
Zhao Yu stared at Zhao Ciji, who nodded. He didn't understand what Zhao Yu meant by bringing up this matter at this time.
"Isn't that all arranged by you?"
"Yes, I don't really care what that truckload of goods is. I just want to cause chaos and keep causing all kinds of trouble to the Ma family. But Luo Yun and his group came out halfway and caught me off guard."
"I thought it was Ma Zhanshan who discovered my motive, and Luo Yun and those people were his new hires to join Ma Mansion."
"Isn't it?"
Zhao Ciji looked at Zhao Yu with some doubts. He had always thought that Luo Yun and the others must have been invited by Ma Mansion to consolidate their power.
"Stupid, if they are forces hired by Ma Mansion, Ma Zhanshan will sit back and watch Li Xiaoning drive those people out of Ma Mansion. He is the head of Ma Mansion. He will get the news as soon as possible about any big or small matter in the family. Could it be that
Missed this?"
Zhao Ciji turned his head and thought, yes, Ma Zhanshan's character is absolutely nothing to say, let alone Luo Yun who saved Li Shanghe's truck.
Even if this incident had not occurred, Ma Zhanshan would not have allowed Li Xiaoning to do such a thing that would damage the reputation of Ma Mansion.
"Then what's going on?"
Zhao Ciji was also confused. His mind was not flexible to begin with, but after such a twist, he felt that his brain immediately turned into a pair of mush.
"Because these people are not the masters hired by Ma Zhanshan at all. Ma Zhanshan allowed Li Xiaoning to do this just to test Luo Yun and the others, because there are masters among Luo Yun and the others, and Ma Zhanshan doesn't know what the purpose of these people is and whether they are taking advantage of them.
His son’s horse brings wealth.”
Zhao Ciji nodded repeatedly. If he thought about it this way, it would make perfect sense, but he was still thinking about his revenge for his broken arm all the time.
"Then what does this have to do with avenging my broken arm?"
"When will you grow up? When will you stop causing trouble for me? If you weren't my brother, you would be dead long ago."
Zhao Yu's tone did not change at all, but the anger contained in it was somewhat deep into his bones. Zhao Ciji couldn't help but shudder, but no matter what, the person in front of him was always his younger brother, and he had the most profound relationship with him.
Close blood relationship.
"Luo Yun was originally a person who was expelled to the Sinful Land. Now that he appears, it is very likely that the people around him are also extremely vicious people in the Sinful Land. Since they are not hired by Ma Mansion, then they must be different when they come to Songjiang City.
There was a purpose. First, they came to Ma's house when they had no other choice, which can explain why they did not feel the slightest anger against Ma Zhanshan's actions."
"The second point is that they want to continue to stay in Songjiang City. It is very likely that there is something here that needs them to deal with, and they may even want to survive here or develop their own power."
"But no matter which one they are, they will definitely stay in Songjiang City forever, so don't worry about revenge right now. Just stay at home and recover from your injuries. As long as they
In Songjiang City, there will definitely be a day when his figure will be revealed."
Zhao Yu is the most outstanding person of the younger generation of the Zhao family. Both his cultivation and his mind are top-notch. Therefore, it is not the elders who are in charge of the Zhao family now, but him, a young man in his early twenties.
Of course, this matter has not been disclosed to the outside world, but some people in the Zhao family know very well that this seemingly gentle young man is actually the most terrifying.
"Yes, brother, I understand."
After Zhao Ciji finished speaking, he turned around and walked out of the yard. The resentment in his eyes flashed away. He hated his brother and he hated his father.
Why did he hand over the power of the family to his elder brother, but he didn't take any part in it? He had one of his hands cut off, but his elder brother didn't care and waited for an opportunity. This clearly meant that he didn't take him to heart.
And his father is even more leisurely, casually looking for someone to treat his wounds, and then handing everything over to Zhao Yu. How can there be any fatherly kindness in this? Do they still regard me as a bloodline of the Zhao family?
The more Zhao Ciji thought about it, the angrier he became. He was so angry that he tore his wound open again. The excruciating pain made him wake up instantly. He had no strength, no power, no financial resources or manpower.
Of course he can't fight his brother and his father, so he needs to be patient and wait for the opportunity. Since you are unkind, then don't blame me, the younger brother, for being unjust.
Zhao Ciji left with a twisted face in grief and anger.
"Always monitor Luo Yun and his group, and report to me as soon as possible if there is any move."
Zhao Yu seemed to be talking to himself, but he knew that there were no less than two digits of masters in this courtyard who obeyed his orders. This sentence was an order, and these people hiding in the dark naturally knew what to do.
"I heard that Ma's house seemed to have been stolen last night. Master, do you think it might have been done by Luo Yun's group?"
A middle-aged man walked over from behind Zhao Yu, with a handsome face and admiration written all over his face.
"Luo Yun used to be an inconspicuous character in the Luo family. If it weren't for his father being the head of the Luo family, no one would even know that he existed. But after he came out of the sinful place, he seemed to have changed, and the rumors
The information in it is completely inconsistent.”
"With the strength he has around him now, if he wants to steal something from the Ma family, he will not be discovered. He can cut off the arm of a child with the eighth level of Qi power in an instant. You should also understand the concept of this."
The middle-aged man nodded, and then sighed: "What the young master said is that there seems to be an undercurrent surging in Songjiang City now. If this matter was not caused by Luo Yun, then there is another mysterious force in Songjiang City.
"
"This is the best. The more chaotic, the better. How many years has our Zhao family been entrenched in Songjiang City? This situation should change. Unfortunately, the second brother came out of Zuimeng Tower safe and sound. The appearance of Luo Yun is
The biggest change in this plan is that we have to find another way."
The middle-aged man's body trembled. Zhao Yu's seemingly gentle face concealed the heart of a king.
Because in order to have a legitimate excuse to deal with the Ma family, he did not hesitate to sacrifice his brother Zhao Ciji. Most people would not dare to mess with such a person. For someone who is willing to use his own brother as a trigger, ruthlessness is not enough to describe him.
No matter how bad he is, no matter how promiscuous he is, he is still your biological brother.
