Chapter 18
Chapter 18. Behind the scenes
"Ren Ping! What's going on! Did you fight with someone?"

"Let me see! Is the injury serious?"

"Stinky boy! Didn't you say you were going to sell things? Why didn't you see anyone for a few days in a row? You also told me to stay for another six months. Are you fooling Miss Ben?"

After driving Ren Ping back to Renzhai, Wu Yousheng left quickly.

Only Ren Ping was left alone to bear Ye Shiyun's greetings and thunderous anger.

Ren Ping guessed that she would be sulking these two days, so he waited until the whole brain was vented before smiling and handing over the check.

"180?"

When Ye Shiyun saw the amount, she was a little confused.

"Yes, plus Chengxuan's hundreds of thousands of compensation, this first step should be almost completed, right?"

What Ren Ping said was referring to the "first step" in revitalizing Ren's wood industry, that is, repaying workers' wage arrears.

This opinion was brought up by Ye Shiyun at that time.

But no matter what, she never imagined that in the past three days, the more than 200 million yuan was actually raised!
"How did you do it? Can you sell so much for the two items before?"

"No, those two items were not sold, but I sold a few for others."

Ren Ping was clueless and didn't explain much.

Instead, I recounted the car accident just now in detail.

Ye Shiyun couldn't help being frightened when she heard it, and then quickly thought of something:
"Shanglong Decoration?"

"You guessed it too?"

Ren Ping looked calm.

He believed that Ye Shiyun was not an outsider, so he didn't hide it.

And the facts have proved that the two people's guesses are indeed coincident.

"There's no need to guess? Who wants to get rid of your Ren family and quickly, don't you know?"

Ye Shiyun snorted coldly:
"You just wanted to regain your old man's business, and someone came to your door. Let me see what you will do in the future?"

Ren Ping was silent.

This is exactly what he couldn't figure out, the former Ren's wood industry was the enemy of Shanglong's decoration business, that's all.

The current Ren family has almost nothing but Renrenzhai, so it does not pose a threat to Shanglong Decoration at all.

Why are they willing to risk their lives in a lawsuit...

"Sister Yun, is Shang Long still in charge of Liu Yuanhong?"

"No, it's his son, Liu Shitang."

"Liu Shitang?"

"Well, but this is after Ren's bankruptcy,"

Ye Shiyun frowned slightly:
"I heard that Mr. Liu is not very old, he is also very elegant, he is a gentleman, but I always feel that something is wrong..."

“How come you see?”

"I don't know, my intuition...don't be too naive, there is no room for gentlemen in the business world, there are only two types of people who can never fail in the business world, one is the real villain, and the other is—"

"hypocrite?"

"Laughing Tiger!"

Ye Shiyun glared at him.

Ren Ping laughed:
"You say that, as if you scolded my old man?"

"No, not including your father, so he fell in the end."

Ye Shiyun glanced at Ren Ping thoughtfully, seemingly unintentionally, but also alert.

Then he stretched as if nothing had happened, and under the reflection of the setting sun, he outlined a pure, lovely and slightly seductive curve, pretending to be lazy and saying:
"Pack up your things and go to help you contact those workers, alas... hit the workers..."

Ren Ping felt mixed emotions in his heart. After a long time, he glanced at Ye Shiyun gratefully.

His father was assassinated by a villain because of his carelessness, but now he has thousands of life experiences forcibly instilled by the system, which can be described as a taste of cold and warm.

So, no more...

……

The sun sets in the east of Nanling City.

In the penthouse of a 300-meter-tall, iconic, ultra-high-end office building, a thin young man was holding his chest out and splashing ink.

Under the crystal green pen holder, a majestic big-character calligraphy is brewing.

This person is only about 30 years old, not a few years older than Ren Ping.

However, that extremely introverted, impermeable icy temperament seems to have been tempered through decades of vicissitudes.

Maybe it was too cold, the originally handsome face was mixed with a hint of femininity, which made people feel chills unconsciously.

The extremely simple furnishings show that the owner of the apartment is withdrawn and doesn't like excitement.

So, after a long time of light knocking on the door, another man in a suit who looked like a secretary entered slowly, not daring to make any extra noise in his steps.

"Master Tang, things didn't work out."

The secretary lowered his voice.

"what happened?"

"That kid was lucky and escaped, only slightly injured."

"But Young Master Tang, don't worry, the road where the accident occurred was strictly selected, no evidence will be left, and the driver is fine, absolutely trustworthy."

"Oh."

The young man agreed lightly, and the pen and ink in his hand didn't stop, obviously it didn't disturb his mind.

The secretary looked hesitant to speak, but after thinking about it, he forcibly held back.

After a while, the ink dried and the brush was put back on its shelf.

The young man stretched out the rice paper and looked at his work proudly, seeming to be in a good mood.

Then the secretary quickly saw the stitches:

"Young Master Tang, I have found out what happened last time. That kid has a set of ancient coins called Little Tianlong. He was favored by Tian Minru of the Tahoe Group. He was guaranteed by Tahoe, so he temporarily blocked those creditors."

"Besides, Tian Bingtai's birthday party will also be attended next month, probably...he has joined the Tian family's line."

"You've said this before."

The young man said lightly.

"Yes!"

The secretary was startled, and a little cold sweat immediately broke out on his forehead:

"I have done what you told me before. I contacted an expert from the Municipal Museum, who specializes in the study of ancient coins. At that time, at the birthday banquet of the Tian family, I will definitely be able to suppress that kid surnamed Ren."

"Okay, if you have time, help me make an appointment with this expert. I want to be safe."

"clear."

The secretary breathed a sigh of relief:

"Then...will someone continue to do it recently?"

"No need, if you don't use one move twice, others are already prepared,"

Without changing his expression, the young man gently put the rice paper in his hand back on the table, holding a pen gesture with his right hand, and danced up and down as if no one else was around.

After a long time, he said softly:

"Change your tactics."

The secretary nodded, not daring to disturb the young man anymore, backed away slowly, and left the room.

Only at the moment of turning around, I can see clearly the four big characters written in heavy ink on the desktop:

Cut the weeds!

……

Three days later, Ye Shiyun packed her bags and went to the suburbs of Nanling City and other nearby cities.

Her task on this trip is to pay back the wages owed, and to contact a group of craftsmen from the former Ren's wood industry to prepare to resume work.

Before leaving, I would like to remind you to be careful about Shanglong Decoration's black hands.

Ren Ping agreed wholeheartedly.

In the past two days, there have been a lot of news from Wu's father and son.

First of all, Wu Zui found an opportunity to beat Kang Minlong severely. The latter thought he was unlucky, but he denied the car accident.

This is also expected, for the crime of murder, even if he was killed, he would not dare to take it on himself.

Secondly, Wu Yousheng finally found out some news about Liu Shitang through various connections.

This Young Master Liu has only been in charge of Shanglong for nearly half a year, and there are very few rumors in the industry.

The most widely circulated one is actually his love of calligraphy, especially the "left style big characters" written by Zuo Zongtang, a famous official in the late Qing Dynasty. It is said that his name "Shitang" was also derived from this.

Apart from this, there are only a few comments about him from a few people:

Acting ruthlessly, the city is extremely deep.

It is highly consistent with Ye Shiyun’s guess...

The enemy is dark and we are clear, Ren Ping feels that the situation is not good.

The last car accident did not leave any evidence, so it can only be guessed out of thin air.

But at this time, instead of wasting effort to inquire about the imaginary enemy, it is better to turn passive into active!

As long as you take the initiative, no matter how ruthless the opponent is, you will only be led by yourself!
"Hello, sir, how can I help you?"

"I'm looking for Mr. Shen."

"Mr. Shen?"

"That's right, Mr. Shen Yicheng, please help him identify something."

Ren Ping smiled.

When I looked up, I saw three antique cursive characters on the top of my head:
Yichengxuan!
