After listening to Wu Zheng's explanation, Xiao Yun carefully recalled the various little actions of the Zhou family in the past six months, and couldn't help but frown.
indeed.
In the past six months, the Zhou family has begun to expand with an almost unstoppable momentum, and its penetration rate in various industries is unusually fast.
"Forget it, it's useless to think about it now, let's go shopping on the third floor first." Wu Zheng sighed softly and ended the topic.
Xiao Yun nodded and followed him out of the bathroom, and the two of them walked outside.
the other side.
"You said that boy just now is the person that the Zhou family threatened to destroy?" Jia Xingzhou asked with some surprise while walking around the third floor with his men.
The subordinate on the side struggled for a moment and replied cautiously: "Yes, according to my investigation, the Zhou family should have offended a certain big shot in the capital, and that's why the entire family was exterminated."
"But... the rumors in Jiangzhou Province are now very exaggerated. Some people even say that the boy named Xiao Yun is actually the illegitimate son of a certain boss in the capital. The Zhou family was punished because he offended him..."
Hearing this, Jia Xingzhou frowned, glanced at him with disdain, and said impatiently: "You already said these are rumors, why are you passing them on to me? You can't figure out such a trivial matter, and you still want to investigate
What's the point?"
Jia Xingzhou's tone was a little sulky.
After so long of investigation into such a huge tragedy as the Zhou family being wiped out, there was no useful information at all. He didn't know anything about it when he asked, and all he was told were rumors.
Seeing Jia Xingzhou's displeasure, the man next to him suddenly became sweaty and his eyes moved rapidly, as if he was making some judgment in his mind.
Finally, the subordinate swallowed his saliva and replied: "Mr. Jia, I think the fact that the Zhou family was wiped out... must have something to do with Xiao Yun!"
"Didn't the Huo family come to Jiangzhou to hold some kind of charity auction a while ago? Xiao Yun also attended that event, and seemed to be very close to Huo Tianyi after that!"
Looking at the frightened expressions of his men, Jia Xingzhou shook his head and said, "Li Hang, you are already quite old, how can you still deal with things like this?"
"If there is a relationship, there is a relationship. If it doesn't matter, it doesn't matter. What does 'should' mean?"
The subordinate nodded hurriedly: "Yes...yes..."
Jia Xingzhou rolled his eyes at him and continued: "To judge something, you don't have to wait until there is 100% evidence before making a conclusion. This is the same as doing business. As long as the probability of profit is higher than 50%,
Then this business is worth doing!”
The man named Li Hang responded repeatedly: "What Mr. Jia taught me is that I did not investigate this matter clearly, and I was too hesitant to draw conclusions."
"Find out the details of that person named Xiao Yun. No matter whether the Zhou family fell into his hands or not, such an ambitious and unruly person will have a headache once he grows up!"
Jia Xingzhou once again brought the topic back to Xiao Yun.
Hearing this, the subordinate's eyes flashed with disdain.
In his opinion, although Xiao Yun has opened several small companies in Jiangzhou, in the end he is just a person from a small place. What experience can he have?
If he can reach this level in his life, he has probably reached his limit. Mr. Jia is too worried.
But even though he was thinking this, the subordinate still nodded and responded with a smile: "Yes, yes."
"By the way, Mr. Jia, although most of the stones left by the Zhou family have been purchased by local jade merchants, there are still probably a lot of good things left. Wu Zheng brought him here today, it must be
I want to pick up the missing ones!"
Hearing this, Jia Xingzhou narrowed his eyes, smiled softly and said: "Since this kid is ambitious and disobedient to discipline, it's best not to let him start his jade business!"
The subordinate frowned and said suspiciously: "Mr. Jia, what do you mean?"
Jia Xingzhou smiled sarcastically and said: "He comes here to pick up leaks, just because he wants to sell some good stuff to enhance the quantity and quality of his company's jade jewelry."
"But I don't want him to buy good things today!"
Hearing this, the subordinate rolled his eyes, and then showed a sinister smile, and said: "Hey, Mr. Jia, as long as you say a word, this guy won't be able to buy even a stone!"
"Just now he was talking nonsense, saying that his company will definitely make you famous in the future... Huh, let's wake him up from his daydream today!"
…
the other side.
Xiao Yun was strolling around choosing stones.
Wu Zheng had been wondering how the Zhou family got involved with Jia Xingzhou, and he seemed a little absent-minded.
Seeing this, Xiao Yun stopped and asked: "You said... as one of the chairman of the Dongling Chamber of Commerce, Jia Xingzhou provides information and resources to the Zhou family in private, isn't he afraid that someone will stand up to protest?
"
Wu Zheng glanced at him and sighed: "As the saying goes, paper can't contain the fire. If this thing is really as I guessed, then someone will always stand up to protest."
"But the key point is that these things are just my personal guesses now, and I can't provide any substantial evidence to prove that Jia Xingzhou provided information and privileges to the Zhou family."
Xiao Yun patted his shoulder and comforted him: "Forget it, don't think about it for now. Anyway, the Zhou family has fallen now, and there is no threat to your Wu family."
Wu Zheng shook his head and said, "You think things are too simple. Since Jia Xingzhou can accept benefits from the Zhou family and open the door for them, he can do the same for others!"
"If things continue like this, won't the business district in East China become a mess?"
Hearing this, Xiao Yun also frowned.
Now that the Zhou family has fallen, a large number of people are ready to take action and are eager for the positions vacated by the four major families. Even the declining Lin family's status is in jeopardy.
Wu Zheng felt a sense of crisis at this time, which was a reasonable reaction.
However, for a while, he couldn't think of any good ideas, so he suggested: "You are not the only one in the Wu family. Why don't you discuss these things with them after you go back and see if you can come up with something?"
What countermeasures are coming?”
I thought that after saying this, Wu Zheng's psychological burden would be slightly relieved.
But who knew that after hearing this, his face became more and more serious.
He glanced at Xiao Yun, sighed, and said: "My father's health has never been good, and my grandpa is getting old, so I have to leave all the family matters to me alone."
"As for the rest of our Wu family...well, you should also know that they are all mediocre people waiting to die. It would be better if they don't cause any trouble for me."
Speaking of this, the expression on Wu Zheng's face became more and more sad.
