This night was destined to be a sleepless night.

In Shanghai in March, the weather is changeable, Longhua Airport, torrential rain.

In the afternoon of the same day, in the VIP lounge of the airport, a short message came from the hall: Shanghai rainstorm, all planes will be grounded, the boss called to learn that the plane was changed to Nanjing due to heavy rain.

The boss's trump card can't be used for the time being, and when the weather is good, the boss will fly back to Shanghai. You just said that Na Miantang had to continue to wait in prison for the best time to get out.

The lawyer and I returned home in frustration, presumably Na Miantang was also helpless, but since the boss made a phone call, Na Miantang was treated very well inside, and only a letter came out.

I didn't dare to tell Mr. Wang the news, because Mr. Wang had begun to gradually get better two days ago, and now his brain is still in a relatively sluggish state.

We are currently closed to Old Man Wang from all news about the Jintang. He can be distracted before the activity and must not be distracted to have more worries.

According to Na Miantang's order, Old Man Wang's house was renovated, and his bedroom became a well-equipped ward, which was sufficient for any emergency. The special care nurse in charge of the arrangement is on duty 24 hours a day, and the doctors are all full-time foreign doctor John, who is paid handsomely - a monthly salary of 20 yuan, and his service time needs to wait until the old man Wang is completely recovered.

Dr. John strictly forbade us to discuss anything about the sect in front of Mr. Wang, but since Mr. Wang came to his senses, everyone has to strictly follow this prohibition.

I walked into Mr. Wang's room, which was a large bedroom with high ceilings and luxuriously furnished furnishings, a large bed with four pillars, and a gilded eagle squatting at the top of each of the pillars. In one corner of the room there was a map of China and a headless model of a dummy wearing a military uniform, from which I had no way of telling, and he was resting his back against a large pile of pillows, his eyes closed.

Na Miantang once told me that his stepfather was a great man when he was young, but after this catastrophe, he had shrunk to the bone, and had disappeared from the big bed so that he could barely see it, "Hello, old man," I said.

walked to the bedside of the old man Wang and looked at his emaciated body, is this the old man Wang who was once dominant? In fact, I already knew that he had come to his senses intermittently, and I had a tacit understanding with him that I had to report something about the sect to him alone. In fact, I don't know why he has the confidence to believe me?

He was a strange old man in my eyes.

At the moment, the old man still needs to be unable to speak, but he wants to hear the situation and exercise his veto.

I whispered in his ear everything that had happened in the past few days, and when I said that Jin Tang sternly rejected the matter of opening the Cao Gang at that time, he nodded in agreement. He sighed slowly when he heard that the lawyer was gathering all the information, but things were not going as smoothly as he had imagined. But what worried him the most was that when he learned that Najin Tang had called the boss, his eyes suddenly cooled, and he kept shaking his head, indicating that he strongly opposed this matter.

"Na Jin often asked me to come back to greet you, don't be too nervous, he will definitely be able to come out, he said that this matter can be solved very simply, so that you don't have to worry too much, you can relax for a few weeks." When I said this, I was crying as I spoke, because I was deceiving myself when I said these words, because now I have reached the most difficult part, and of course all this cannot escape the eyes of the old man Wang, who has insight into life.

"Tell...... I'm currently ...... What's the worst? He had the slightest hint of rebuke, his eyes glaring at me, aimed at my weakness. I thought to myself: this old man, even when he is sick, is still so cross-witted.

Under the silent gaze of Old Man Wang, I finally compromised: "I'm sorry, Old Man Wang, I failed you, I didn't protect the Jintang. We're going to lose everything...... Na Jin is often going to be sentenced to death, we have no way at the moment, the whereabouts of the boss are undecided, and it will be two more days before he comes. ”

Old Man Wang blinked his eyes, and for half a second, his will collapsed and disintegrated, and the exhaustion of the power of his physical body was clearly written on his face, but he immediately returned to his original state. Now that he had accepted the result, he was silent for a few seconds.

Then Old Man Wang whispered weakly beside me: "Convene...... All the hall masters...... to my ...... The room comes, I ...... A formal ...... is to be held of meetings. ”

"Old man Wang, I'll notify you right away."

Despite Dr. John's objections, Mr. Wang insisted on holding the first temporary meeting in the ward.

Hearing the rumble of several cars approaching the palace, I looked up at the clock, and at 11:33 a.m., all four of them arrived. Then I went upstairs and woke up Old Man Wang.

Ah Liu, Ah Qi, Lei Ting, Shao Xiaoxing and I gathered together in the ward. For the first time, the four of them saw Old Man Wang appear in front of them in full clothes for the first time since his assassination.

At this time, they saw that the old man weighed a lot more than during the injury, his movements were strangely stiff, the hair on his head seemed very sparse, his clothes hung a little loosely on his body, he was much older, and he lost a few laps of weight, as if they could get rid of the weakness of his body by willpower, and his face was firm, with all the strength and tenacity of the past, sitting straight and straight in the armchair, and his body had a powerful aura, with the majesty of an emperor. He turned to me and said, "Give me a little wine, and then pour some for everyone." ”

I was stunned for a moment, he regarded me as a girl who called for a call, is there such a way to call the last wife of that Miantang? I have the feeling that this old man did it on purpose.

But I poured him some wine as if I were a relative, and this was a country wine. Of course, this wine is premised on the permission of Dr. John.

The four of them were moved to tears when they saw the old man's state, and knelt on one knee, and it could be seen from their pious attitude that they were loyal to the old man. Finally there is a backbone, and their lost souls are re-injected with new hope. Before there was no little boss and old man Wang's side, they carried out a meaningless sweeping war against Sanxin Company, because there was no point in this kind of killing, although these four hall masters were excellent tactical masters, and the results were brilliant, but he did not have the strategic talent of the little boss and the old man Wang, and he lost a lot of their money, but their income was very little, and some things became more and more obvious, and the most important thing was that the sect was becoming more and more outnumbered.

"Old man, I have avenged you!" Ah Liu and Ah Qi are simply described as crying bitterly, and their practices still maintain the original worship plot.

In their eyes, only the injured Old Man Wang can clean up the current fiasco by going into battle and going out in person, even if it is just to maintain a stalemate, they will undoubtedly sincerely surrender to all the instructions and decisions of Old Man Wang. It's just the doctor's opinion, it doesn't matter anymore, everything doesn't matter. Old Man Wang must get all the sources and then take the baton.

I try my best to be mentally prepared, not to let myself feel guilty and blame myself too much, that will only increase the burden of Old Man Wang, and excessive grief will only increase Old Man Wang's grief.

The old man waved his hand, I knew he was calling me, I leaned down and listened to his whisper: "Don't ...... anymore Too much correction ...... Pestering other things, listen to my ...... Any commands. ”

I know that Mr. Wang asked me to give them a briefing, put forward his analysis, explain what to do to turn the situation around, and then keep silent, and then how to respond to me, just respond to his family. But I can't just reveal the sadness in my heart.

I officially conveyed the old man's words to everyone, and everyone was silent and knew the seriousness of this matter.

After listening to the old man's words, I said to them: "The old man has clearly ordered that no one of you should interfere, no one should launch retaliation, no one should track down the whereabouts of the murderer, and no one should interfere again!" Old man Wang didn't nod, that is, no one in the sect was allowed to take any war action against Sanxin Company, take care of the disciples in your hands, restrain their behavior, and if you dare to have any violators, you will be expelled from the sect. Protect all your current business activities in a low-key manner, and if you can stop all business activities, you will stop all social activities until your little boss comes out of prison safely. ”

"Uncle Ah Liu, Uncle Ah Qi, you are currently arranging for your subordinates to protect the safety of the whole family, and improve all the security measures in this Wang Mansion, so that no one can fly in even if they have wings!"

They nodded solemnly after receiving the order.

"Uncle Thunder, you are responsible for pacifying all the brothers, accompanying your family more when you have nothing to do, taking care of the elderly and children, not only the monthly money will be paid, but also an extra yuan will be added, and you can't let them act rashly."

Thunder clenched fists received.

"Uncle Shao Xiaoxing, you are responsible for proposing to Sanxin Company the preparation for the peace talks, and the time and place are chosen by them."

All that Old Man Wang did was to worry that once others knew that he would wake up, they would retaliate in a crazy revenge and bloody war, because Old Man Wang was a powerful man in the whole Shanghai Beach when he was young.

None of us guessed the old man's true intentions.

Ah Liu asked in surprise: "Old man, are we going to lay a trap for them?" Want to make the enemy let their guard down? ”

Thunder also asked excitedly: "We plan to use the massacre to avenge the little boss?" As long as the old man gives an order, the brothers will go to the knife and go to the sea of fire, it is incumbent on them! ”

"The old man said, extraordinary times are very important, mention it again, and if you violate it, you will be expelled from the sect!" Everyone was stunned.

After the meeting, everyone went to arrange their own.

When Huo Zhuoshan of Sanxin Company received the invitation of Mr. Wang, there were doubts at first, could it be that Mr. Wang set a trap? Are you really planning to avenge the little boss with the massacre of the whole audience? However, Mr. Wang quickly proved his sincerity, and he not only invited the mayor of Shanghai and the chief inspector in Songjiang to participate in the peace talks. Then he took the decisive final step to confirm his intention to make sure that everyone could leave the meeting safely: he asked the boss to vouch for it, and his assistant would arrive directly at the scene.

Let the boss make a guarantee, which is tantamount to determining the safety factor of 100%, which is equivalent to putting all your own net worth and life in front of everyone, and there is no way back.

Things are moving quickly, and such a meeting can be held on the third day.

Mr. Wang's body was still recovering, and he ordered Dr. John to inject him with stimulants, which would ensure that his body was in a state of euphoria during the meeting, and Dr. John shouted: "This is undoubtedly suicide, Mr. Wang, a shot will not be able to regain his vitality for at least half a month." Are you all crazy? But this protest was directly ignored by Mr. Wang.

I thought that any of the four hall masters would accompany Old Man Wang to attend the peace talks, but he pointed at me and said, "It's you." “

"I, I'm Mao Jiujiu, not from your sect, are you sure I can deal with those big guys, and I'm not going to fight, I'm going to be useful, right?" I hesitated for a moment, because the strange old man had been a little unkind to my gaze since he woke up.

"I have not lost my memory," said the old man, who was able to hide his weak body with a sonorous voice after the injection, "but you have obviously lost your memory, and in this house the young man is only allowed to answer, and must not speak." “

I saw Ah Liu's surrender and bowed their heads, their faces flushed, they must have looked at me being instigated by Old Man Wang and suffocating internal injuries, and I didn't dare to laugh if I wanted to.

I shut my mouth and said nothing. I'm not a child, I don't need to talk to me like this, and no matter who takes care of you, you should be grateful, no wonder that Miantang never mentioned this old man to me, it turned out that the two of us didn't shoot each other, and the contrast between the coma and the back was so big, it was really inexplicable.

It's 9 a.m. on a Saturday.

Under the guidance of a servant, I helped the old man Wang to walk in a long and wide corridor, this corridor is decorated in the classical style of gold and Athens, and what I see when I look up are ingenious, carved beams and paintings, the feet are covered with red and blue Persian carpets, and the powder walls on both sides are full of a long ink landscape painting, and the head of the realm is a gold lacquer gate, a salute from afar, like a gate to fairyland, but I know that this big world is not a leisurely landlord, but may be hell......

The meeting room is equipped with soft leather chairs, and the meeting room is 100% private, all ready to be provided for everyone to use. Always carefully selected small troop eco-top weapons.

The meeting time is set between 9:30~10:00 in the morning, since Mr. Wang is the initiator of the peace talks, so he is a master, so he is the first to arrive, he has many advantages, punctuality is one of them.

The invited guests gradually arrived, they knew each other, and they had dealt with each other for many years, sometimes because of socializing, sometimes because of the pursuit of profits, and they have always treated each other with a standard of integrity.

A small bar and cafeteria were set up in the cabinets, and each attendee was allowed to bring one assistant and ten doormen to attend. Most of them are their own butlers, and they are basically all men. I'm kind of an outlier, because I'm not a sectarian, I'm just a friend. So I gathered everyone's curious eyes on me, and I was an anomaly.
