Chapter 673 Confidant (I Went to Eat...)
678, Confidant
After listening to his childhood friend's words, Ah Sheng also understood that there must be something that cannot be seen in this. As Huo Zhen's confidants, they are more likely to listen to Huo Zhen, rather than Dongguanzi.
"Shou Gou, what do you mean?" Ah Sheng was still a little uncertain.
"I think this matter is very likely Mr. Huo Zhen's intention. If we stand on the wrong side this time, the consequences will be disastrous." Shou Gou frowned.
He immediately smelled the unusual meaning from this incident. It is very likely that this matter is not as simple as it seems.
"What should we do then?" Ah Sheng was a little depressed. He thought it was just an ordinary "job" but he didn't expect it to become so complicated now.
Shou Gou sneered: "We are Mr. Huo Zhen's people, so we naturally help Mr. Huo Zhen. What we do is also a token of our loyalty."
"Okay, I'll listen to you." Ah Sheng nodded. He still trusts his childhood friend more.
Shougou smiled and said, "Don't worry. If we do well this time, Mr. Huo Zhen will not treat us badly. By the way, who are the targets you and Mr. Huo talked about?"
"Green Snake and White Snake, the others have not been decided yet." Ah Sheng said embarrassedly.
Shougou nodded and praised, "Not bad, your vision is pretty good."
"No, don't tease me. If I hadn't seen that poster, how could I think of them." Ah Sheng said modestly.
"Do you have other targets now?" Shougou asked.
Ah Sheng shook his head and said, "I don't have a clue yet, so I called you here. Mr. Huo and I mean to form a similar "group" so that we can save face. Do you have any recommendations?"
"How about Cai Yiwen and Chen Qiuxue?" Shougou said the names of the two without thinking.
Ah Sheng nodded and said, "It's okay, but you are wild. I think Li Jing, who just debuted recently, is also good, and Huang Wenjing is also good."
"You have a good vision, isn't it?" Shougou smiled.
Ah Sheng smiled foolishly, "Same here."
"But those two snakes are a little difficult to deal with now, do you have any solution?" Shou Gou asked.
Ah Sheng thought for a while and said, "How about I ask the people in Southeast Asia to come up with some ideas and hold a commercial performance there? I heard that their financial conditions are not very good now, especially the green snake."
"Well, then I will arrange for them to be responsible for a commercial performance. When the time comes, you can ask the people in Southeast Asia to prepare. As for the others, I will ask someone to sound out the mouth later." Shou Gou thought for a while and said.
In Shou Gou's opinion, it is not easy for them to take action against the local people in Hong Kong. These things are just child's play in their eyes.
"But Shou Gou, be careful. The second young master Huo said not to let other people in the Huo family know about this matter." Ah Sheng repeatedly reminded.
"Don't worry, I will handle the things here." Shou Gou said confidently. Li Jing and Huang Wenjing, who just debuted, are easy to deal with, but Chen Qiuxue and Cai Yiwen are a bit troublesome.
But this is not difficult for Shougou. As a "dog-headed military advisor", he has a lot of information in his hands. Not to mention that the original reputation of these two people is just so-so.
So Shougou began to let his men "contact" the other party to see the other party's "attitude". If the other party agrees, then everyone is happy. It's hard to say whether he is responsible.
Huo Ershao is in full swing, but Huo Yuan is a little "wrong".
Huo Yuan has been feeling a little uneasy since he saw Huo Ershao last time. Huo Ershao's sudden return to Hong Kong is really a bit "unexpected" for him.
He knows that Huo Ershao is not the kind of "homesick" person. If there is no "thing", Huo Ershao will not give up his life of drinking and partying outside.
So out of caution, Huo Yuan called his men to go out and inquire.
"Master, everything has been checked. After the second master came back, he went directly to meet Ah Sheng's people." The men told Huo Yuan everything about Huo Ershao's every move after returning to Hong Kong in an orderly manner.
"What's going on with Asheng? If something happens, wouldn't Dongguanzi's side be "easier" to deal with than Asheng's side?" Huo Yuan thought more and more that something was wrong.
Although Asheng is also his "family", Dongguanzi is the most suitable person to "do things" in terms of strength.
This series of actions by the second young master Huo made people very suspicious. What was the trick? So Huo Yuan thought about it and decided to tell his father about it.
After listening to his son Huo Yuan's report, Huo Wen was also suspicious. The recent abnormal behavior of Huo Zhen and his son made them a little unpredictable.
"Send someone out to inquire and see what the situation is." Huo Wen planned to send someone out to inquire quietly for his own considerations.
But unfortunately, both "both sides" this time adhered to the principle of "low-key". So far, only 4 people knew about the whole thing, so Huo Wen and his son didn't know what happened after inquiring for a long time.
Huo Zhen has become active again since he helped the family win a Caesar Hall in Southeast Asia last time. However, some of his recent actions are also very intriguing.
Huo Wen thought about it and decided to "talk" with Huo Zhen. After all, he still had to take care of the "crisis" family affairs. So he called Huo Zhen and his son and invited them to come to his house for dinner in the evening.
"What's going on, father? Why did my uncle and his family suddenly invite us to dinner?" The second young master Huo wondered.
Huo Zhen sneered: "It must be your recent actions that have attracted their attention. Haha, this old fox will not invite us to dinner for no reason."
"Then what should we do?" said the second young master Huo with a frown.
Huo Zhen thought for a while and said: "Act according to the situation. They should not know the news of our cooperation with the Li family. Remember to keep your mouth shut and pretend that you know nothing."
"Okay, father, I will pay attention." The second young master Huo nodded and replied.
Just as Huo Zhen thought, Huo Yuan and his son just wanted to find out the situation. The main thing is that the second young master Huo's return to Hong Kong this time is too strange, which makes people have to be on guard.
In the evening, Huo Zhen brought his son to the Huo family. As soon as he entered the door, Huo Wen had an attitude of "long time no see" and asked Huo Zhen and his son about their well-being. Both sides started "playing Tai Chi" at the dinner table.
Huo Wen made a series of indirect attacks, but Huo Zhen's attitude of "I don't know" made Huo Wen more and more sure that there must be something going on.
The atmosphere at the dinner table seemed particularly "weird". Although everyone was talking and laughing, those who knew the situation could tell that they were just smiling from the outside but not from the inside.
After the dinner, Huo Wen said with a gloomy look in his eyes: "Find a few people to keep an eye on them."
"Okay, father." Huo Yuan nodded.
