District 9

The next morning, it was around nine o'clock.

At the north gate of Yuanshan Life Town, three off-road vehicles were parked. Xu Yan, Xu Er and others immediately greeted them.

The car door was pushed open, and Ruan Xiong walked out with a smile: "Long time no see, Lao Xu!"

Xu Yan was stunned for a moment, and instinctively glanced inside the car, but he didn't see Ruan Ming, which made him very confused: "Long time no see!"

"Haha, you have gained weight." Ruan Xiong shook hands with Xu Yan.

"Hey, the troops entered the city recently. The food was good, and I gained more than ten pounds." Xu Yan asked him softly after withdrawing, "Where is Xiao Ming? Is he in the back?"

"What? I'm not qualified to talk to Qin Yu?" Ruan Xiong replied in a teasing tone.

"What do you mean? Are you deliberately talking to me?" Xu Yan was stunned for a moment, then cleverly led the conversation: "Xiao Ming told me, he wants to talk about this matter."

"There was a temporary problem at Zangyuan. The old man asked him to deal with it. He couldn't make it in time, so he asked me to come over and talk to Qin Yu!" Ruan Xiong explained softly.

"oh!"

Xu Yan was still a little confused. He couldn't figure out what could be more important than the interview with Qin Yu, but since Ruan Xiong had already arrived, he couldn't say much, so he just nodded and said, "Okay, let's go then. , Qin Lu is already waiting."

"Let's go!" Ruan Xiong nodded.

A few minutes later, four cars entered from the north gate, and when the people on duty saw that the Xu family's car was leading the way, they let them pass without inspection.

…

It's around 11 a.m.

Four cars stopped at the entrance of the Xu family compound. Xu Yan led Ruan Xiong and others into the headquarters of the Huncheng Brigade.

Qin Yu, who had been waiting for a long time, came out to greet him with Li Zhan, Cha Meng and others.

"Qin Lu, let me introduce to you. This is Ruan Xiong from the Ruan family, the younger brother of the Ruan clan leader." Xu Yan greeted him immediately with a smile on his face.

Qin Yu was also very confused when he heard this, because what Lao Xu told him was that the person who came here to talk would be Ruan Ming, so he couldn't understand why there was Ruan Xiong.

"Hello, Qin Lu!" Ruan Xiong stretched out his palm.

"Hello, hello!" Qin Yu shook hands with him, stepped aside and said, "This is my chief of staff, Li Zhan, and this is my guard platoon leader, Cha Meng."

Ruan Xiong was polite and exchanged a few words with Li Zhan and others before entering the house with Qin Yu and others.

In the living room.

After the guards filled the tea, they immediately retreated. Xu Yan closed the front door and took the lead in saying, "The Ruan family and our mixed brigade have been close friends for a long time. They helped Xiao Wu last time! "

Qin Yu could more or less guess what the Ruan family had done before. Whether they released Qiu Wu or asked Lao Xu to secretly help him stabilize Yuanshan, it was all a sign of goodwill!

And by doing this, they not only offended the other three major families and two major companies, but they also couldn't get any benefits from Qin Yu for the time being. So what were they doing for this?

In fact, this is a very shrewd political investment!

Some people like immediate benefits, while others value long-term planning more. From the perspective of the Ruan family, they feel that Chuanfu will be re-incorporated into the territory of the three major districts sooner or later. Therefore, if they want to continue to develop and expand in the future, they must have a good relationship with the Yamen units stationed here. Relations, and used a series of goodwill actions to buy the benefits of the three major districts, and told them clearly that I, the three major families, and the two major companies are not in the same group, and I should not be the lackey of the fifth district.

Qin Yu could guess this, so he could tolerate Lao Xu, a man who secretly had a close relationship with the Ruan family, to advise him and give him such an important position as the president of the Autonomous Association.

But Qin Yu also understood that the Ruan family had not shown up before, so they were just waiting and watching. If they stand firm, they will release Qiu Wu and ask President Xu to help secretly. But if they do not stand firm, they will continue to cooperate with the three major families and the two major companies without hesitation. At that time, Qiu Wu It's hard to say whether Wu can survive, and whether Lao Xu will add resistance to the mixed brigade in the distant mountains again...

This kind of calculation is very shrewd and cautious, but Qin Yu is not disgusted with it, because he is not the center of the earth, and it is impossible for everyone to revolve around him. It is also true that a family as big as the Ruan family has its own ideas and calculations. normal.

Therefore, in Qin Yu's heart, the Ruan family is still worthy of friendship and even cooperation. He feels that dealing with smart people will not be tiring. What's more, Ruan Ming did save Qiu Wu. No matter from which perspective, it is It is worthy of gratitude.

…

In the living room, when the two parties met for the first time, Qin Yu did not take the initiative to mention cooperation, and Ruan Xiong himself did not talk about it, so everyone was just chatting to enhance their relationship, talk about the current situation of Sichuan Mansion, and talk about the recent developments in District 9 political changes, the content sounds quite relaxed.

But Ruan Xiong is not in a hurry, but Xu Yan is a little anxious, because he really wants both parties to pierce this layer of window paper and directly determine the direction of cooperation. In this way, he will not feel too uncomfortable being caught in the middle, but Xu Yan Yan gave Ruan Xiong several looks in secret, but the latter ignored him.

This made Xu Yan even more confused. He thought to himself, "What the hell are you Ruan Xiong doing here? Why are you talking about useless things? You should talk about business."

After the two parties chatted for more than two hours, Xu Yan felt that things were almost done, so he took the initiative and said, "Let's have dinner together tonight."

"Okay!" Qin Yu nodded: "President Xu, please arrange this matter."

"No problem." Xu Yan nodded.

"Okay, then I'll let Lao Ruan and the others take a break and we'll talk tonight." Xu Yan stood up.

…

Ten minutes later.

Ruan Xiong, Xu Yan and others left the Huncheng Brigade compound together. The latter asked with his hands behind his back: "Why didn't you talk about cooperation when you were in there just now?"

"There's no rush in this matter." Ruan Xiong replied calmly: "He didn't speak, so I can't speak first. Let's talk slowly. Anyway, I plan to stay in the distant mountains for a few days."

Xu Yan was silent for a while, and then took the initiative to invite: "Okay, as long as you know what's going on. In this case, I'll let Xiaodong make arrangements, and you can live in my courtyard."

"Okay, I'm at your place, then I'll follow your arrangements..." Ruan Xiong replied with his hands behind his back.

"Xiaodong!"

Xu Yan turned around and shouted: "Save the folk remedies for your uncle Ruan and the others to live in."

"Okay, I'll make arrangements." A young man from the Xu family behind everyone responded immediately and ran back to the hospital.

Ruan Xiong looked at Xu Yan with a smile: "Haha, I haven't played mahjong with you for a long time. Can we play two games at once?"

"Oh, I haven't fought for a long time. I'm getting older and can't sit still anymore." Xu Yan declined.

"Let's play two games and lose some of your hard-earned money." Ruan Xiong insisted with a double entendre.

"Haha, okay, let's do two!" Xu Yan raised his hand and said, "This way!"

After saying that, the group of people walked towards the main courtyard of the Xu family.

…

In Taoli Life Village, Sha Yong held the phone and whispered: "Well, everything has been arranged. I will call you immediately if there is news...!"
