The young man has long been unhappy with the upstart Yang Lu.
In his opinion, such unqualified overseas businessmen coming to Haiya Pavilion for dinner would lower the quality of the entire inn.
What's even more irritating is that this guy didn't know if it was just to make him feel disgusted, but he even hired a dirty newsgirl to eat havoc next door to him. He almost treated Haiya Pavilion as a shelter!
When he saw Murong running towards him, it was strange that he looked so good!
It was also the first time that Murong saw such a customer who scolded him at first glance, and he was immediately at a loss: "I...I am not a beggar! I am a newspaper salesperson from Pan's Trading Company!"
The young man sneered and said: "Pan's Trading Company is the commercial leader of Zhongzhou. How can you, a beggar from Haiya City, get the title?"
At this point, the young man was too lazy to continue talking nonsense with the newspaper girl, and directly ordered the servant beside him: "Ajie, beat this little beggar out!"
After receiving the order, the servant immediately took out a whip from his waist and struck Murong's face with a gesture.
Murong obviously had a lot of experience in being beaten. Seeing that the situation was not going well, he crouched down with his head in his hands, tightly protecting his little face on his chest.
At this moment, Yang Lu also slapped the tea cup in his hand on the table with a bang.
"Stop! What do you want to do?"
Seeing other guests taking the initiative to intervene, the servant's right hand holding the whip immediately froze in mid-air. After all, he was just a servant and had no right to start conflicts with other guests on behalf of his master.
The young man also didn't expect that Yang Lu would blatantly intervene when he was just lecturing a female beggar. As the two of them came and went, all the surrounding guests looked sideways.
It's okay for Yang Lu, an overseas nouveau riche. After all, no one here knows him, so he can't be embarrassed. However, as a frequent guest of Haiya Pavilion, most of the guests in this inn know him.
Although the onlookers didn't say anything for the time being, the young man knew that most of them were watching his jokes silently, and some of the guests who sympathized with Murong looked at him a little unkindly!
The young man didn't want to make the matter a big deal, so he warned Yang Lu in a deep voice: "My friend, I'm just educating a blind beggar, isn't it okay?"
Yang Lu helped Murong up and protected him behind him, and then said calmly: "She is my friend."
Hearing Yang Lu's perfunctory answer, a trace of anger flashed in the young man's eyes: If she really had a friend as awesome as you, would she still be a newsboy?
He was convinced that Yang Lu was just looking for trouble, and the young man stopped pretending: "I'm going to teach this newspaper girl a lesson today. I wish Ziming will do something good, but it's not your overseas businessman's turn to teach you!"
Hearing the name Zhu Ziming, Yang Lu's pupils shrank slightly.
Based on the intelligence collected during this period, he had a general understanding of the prominent forces in Haiya City. This guy named Zhu Ziming should be the young master of the Zhu Family Chamber of Commerce.
On the surface, the Zhu Family Chamber of Commerce is just a mortal chamber of commerce, and there is nothing surprising about it. However, anyone who knows a little bit about the political structure of Haiya City knows that the backer behind the Zhu Family Chamber of Commerce is the general trade representative of Wuliangjian stationed in Haiya City.
Lu Anping, a monk in the late stage of foundation building!
If we use the position on Earth as an analogy, this Master Lu is equivalent to the person in charge of the customs at the largest trade port in Zhongzhou. He is responsible for collecting import and export trade tariffs for the Wuliang Sword Sect. He is called the "Haiya City Gate God" by many ocean-going merchants.
". Even Jiang Hua'an, the lord of Haiya City, did not dare to take Lu Anping lightly.
And this Zhujia Chamber of Commerce is the man with white gloves and tools who comes to make money for Lu Anping.
However, the strangeness in Yang Lu's eyes just flashed away, and then he said calmly: "I'm not your biological father and mother, why should I teach you a lesson for them? But I really have no control over this matter today!
"
Seeing that the other party still showed no fear after giving his name, it was Zhu Ziming's turn to be embarrassed.
In fact, most of the second-generation ancestors are usually in an embarrassing situation. Although the title of "XXX's child" sounds majestic, everyone knows that the real powerful one is actually your father, and everyone also knows that,
You can't make the decision for your father.
If there is no essential conflict of interest, everyone will naturally be willing to give you face. But if others are determined not to give you face, then the second-generation rich and second-generation officials actually have no good solution. If they go home and file a complaint for the bad things they have caused,
, there is a high probability that he will be scolded by his own father.
As a private equity fund manager, Yang Lu usually greets and greets his second-generation ancestors, so he naturally understands the mystery behind this.
Zhu Ziming is not the kind of person who is easily impulsive, but when he saw that Yang Lu's face was filled with a mocking expression of "I just won't give you face, why don't you go home and complain to your father?", he even went to Haiya Pavilion directly.
The urge to fight.
But if he really fights in public in Haiya Pavilion, the entire Zhu Family Chamber of Commerce will probably become a laughing stock!
Just when he was so embarrassed that he couldn't get off the stage, someone finally rushed to the rescue. Seeing the middle-aged man who came to the rescue, Zhu Ziming seemed to have grabbed a life-saving straw and greeted him repeatedly: "Shopkeeper Su, our Zhujia Chamber of Commerce
You can be considered a frequent visitor to Haiya Pavilion, so you must give me an explanation today!"
However, shopkeeper Su ignored him and instead bowed his hands to both parties: "Everyone, if you have any personal grudges, you can resolve them privately, but our Haiya Pavilion also has Haiya Pavilion's rules. If someone is in Haiya Pavilion,
If we take the initiative to cause trouble on our territory, don’t blame us for being unkind.”
Although shopkeeper Su's words sounded very fair, he did not respond to Zhu Ziming's words, which in itself expressed his preference.
Zhu Ziming was not a fool, and of course he could hear what Shopkeeper Su meant. He knew very well that if he continued to entangle like this endlessly, this unknown maritime merchant would not be afraid of being embarrassed, but the face of the Zhu Family Chamber of Commerce would be at stake.
Lost all.
Zhu Ziming glared at Murong fiercely and said, "As long as you are still in Haiya City for one day, I will definitely not be able to spare you!"
After finishing his harsh words, he said no more and walked away with his female companion and servants.
Seeing that Zhu Zi retreated knowing the difficulty, shopkeeper Su turned to Yang Lu and said: "Sir, although Haiya Pavilion has its own rules, these rules are not something that everyone can use casually. Please behave accordingly!"
Leaving behind what sounded like a warning, Shopkeeper Su also turned around and left the scene.
Seeing Mr. Yang chatting and laughing, he forced the young master of the Zhu Family Chamber of Commerce away, and the little stars in Murong's eyes almost popped out.
However, the girl selling the newspaper was not completely unsophisticated. She said worriedly: "Mr. Yang, thank you for being here today! But we have offended someone from the Zhujia Chamber of Commerce today. If the other party intends to retaliate, what should we do?"
Yang Lu did not answer this question, but looked at the main entrance of Haiya Pavilion with thoughtful eyes. Following Yang Lu's gaze, Murong saw a bald man, who followed Zhu Ziming's footsteps and left Haiya.
Pavilion.
After the figure of the bald man disappeared, Yang Lu slowly said: "Don't worry. Friends will naturally come forward to help us solve these small troubles, but..."
Murong had never seen Mr. Yang look so hesitant before and quickly asked: "Just what?"
Yang Lu smiled bitterly and said: "It's just that the friend who helped us settle the trouble may not act so fast. In order to prevent the revenge of that surnamed Zhu, I suggest that you also stay in Haiya Pavilion for one night. No matter how arrogant he is,
, and I don’t dare to cause trouble on the territory of the Haiya Chamber of Commerce, but, uh... I only opened one guest room."
