Chapter 1438: Keep a Line when Doing Things
"Xiao Di!" Wu Mingzhe took a breath and rushed over in a hurry.
When Wu Mingzhe arrived at Xiao Di's side, he discovered that Xiao Di had no external injuries and his breathing was very steady, as if he was asleep. It seemed that his life was not in danger.
"Xiao Di, wake up!" Wu Mingzhe kept shaking Xiao Di and calling his name.
"Huh?" Xiao Di slowly opened her eyes and looked at Wu Mingzhe with blurred eyes, as if she hadn't recovered yet.
"Xiao Di, where is Li Zhenbang?" Seeing Xiao Di open her eyes, Wu Mingzhe asked impatiently.
"Huh?" I don't know whether Xiao Di didn't calm down and didn't hear clearly, or whether she didn't understand Wu Mingzhe's words. Xiao Di's eyes showed confusion.
"Where are His Majesty Cui Langmian and the others?" Wu Mingzhe hurriedly changed his question and asked.
"I...I don't know." Xiao Di was stunned for a moment, then put her head in her hands and responded with a very painful expression.
"What's going on with you? What happened?" Wu Mingzhe asked urgently.
Xiao Di shook her head and felt a little more comfortable. She took a few deep breaths and then said: "I...I don't know what happened. After we got here, I was chatting with Cui Langmian and the others. , and suddenly I felt dizzy, and then...then I didn’t know anything else, and then I saw you.”
"What about the four-winged angel statue? Have you got it back?" Wu Mingzhe's heart skipped a beat. He had a bad feeling, but he couldn't help but ask.
"The four-winged angel statue? You never told me?" Xiao Di looked at Wu Mingzhe with a confused look. He knew who owned the four-winged angel statue.
When Wu Mingzhe communicated with Li Zhenbang in the secret room, he was not in the secret room. He did not stop after reporting the letter and immediately went to find a way to stop Chelsea, so he had no idea about the four-winged angel statue.
After hearing Xiao Di's words, Wu Mingzhe's pupils shrank and he stood stunned on the spot. He was now basically sure that Xiao Di's fainting must be related to Li Zhenbang and the others, and the four-winged angel statue must have been taken away by Li Zhenbang and the others. .
Wu Mingzhe regrets it so much now. If he had known this was the case, he might as well have let Li Zhenbang and Chelsea fight each other face to face! If Chelsea dies, he dies. The worst he can do is to say he didn’t know it was Li Zhenbang pretending to be Li Zhenbang in disguise.
After all, the Jucaiyuan Chamber of Commerce is a public place, and it is also a place for buying and selling. You can't search everyone who comes to see who they are after taking off their disguises, right? If you really do this, your business will be out of business!
Not all guests want others to know their identities. For example, many guests attending the auction, especially those who buy and sell black goods, wish they didn't even know who they are.
Although Wu Mingzhe had already guessed the ending, he couldn't help but search the room carefully. He still held on to the last glimmer of hope in his heart.
Naturally, there would be no surprises. He searched the room and the yard inch by inch twice, but found nothing in the end. He stood in the yard dejectedly in a daze.
Xiao Di stood beside Wu Mingzhe, always lowering his head and saying nothing. Although he didn't think it was all his fault, he knew that he was indeed responsible. If he had not passed out but had been staring at Cui Lang, the loss of the four-winged angel statue would not have happened.
He didn't know the exact price of the four-winged angel statue, but for him, the price of something that could be placed on the fifth floor was astronomical. He couldn't even afford to sell his whole family.
"Xiao Di." Wu Mingzhe called out suddenly.
Xiao Di was frightened and looked at Wu Mingzhe in fear.
"President... President, what are your orders?" Xiao Di buried his head deeply in his chest. He was really afraid that Wu Mingzhe would say that he was responsible and ask him to compensate, even if it was only part of the compensation.
However, Xiao Di is also mentally prepared. If Wu Mingzhe really asks him to pay compensation, he would rather sell himself as a slave as repayment. I hope Wu Mingzhe can let him go for the sake of his loyalty to him for many years. family.
"Huh!" Wu Mingzhe let out a long breath and said helplessly: "Let's go back!"
"Wha...what?" Xiao Di was stunned. He couldn't believe his ears. Wu Mingzhe, who had always been considered stingy by everyone, actually neither got angry at him nor got angry at him about the loss of the four-winged angel statue. He was not asked to compensate. Who would dare to believe this if told?
"Let's go back!" Wu Mingzhe's voice was full of exhaustion, and it was obvious that this incident had hit him hard.
"What about the four-winged angel statue?" Xiao Di asked doubtfully.
After asking, Xiao Di regretted it and wanted to slap himself in the face. He said this without thinking at all. The words had already been spoken, and he couldn't take them back even if he wanted to. Chairman Wu Mingzhe didn’t even mention it, but he still brought it up. Wasn’t this making himself uncomfortable?
"The four-winged angel statue must have been taken away by Li...Cui Lang, and there is no point in us staying here. Alas!" Wu Mingzhe shook his head and sighed.
Listening to Wu Mingzhe's tone, it seemed that he didn't mean to blame him. Xiao Di felt a little more at ease and breathed a sigh of relief.
However, Wu Mingzhe did not directly say that this matter had nothing to do with him, so his heart could not be settled. But he can't ask Wu Mingzhe, does this matter have anything to do with me? Do I need compensation? Unless there's something wrong with his mind.
"Is this the end of the matter?" Xiao Di finally couldn't help but make an insinuation.
"Of course it's impossible to just let it go!" Wu Mingzhe said through gritted teeth with dark eyes.
Xiao Di's heart skipped a beat, and she thought to herself: It's broken! Dead! After all, I still didn't control my bad mouth!
In fact, Xiao Di is not usually a talkative person, otherwise Wu Mingzhe would not be able to let him always stay with her and explain many things to him.
It's just that this matter concerns him, and it's too heavy for him to bear, so he really can't feel at ease and talks more than usual.
"Sooner or later, this account will have to be settled with Cui Lang!" Wu Mingzhe said in a calm voice.
However, he clenched his fists tightly, and his joints made a crackling sound, which showed that his mood was not as calm as his voice.
Hearing Wu Mingzhe's words, Xiao Di secretly breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that nothing happened to her, so she reached into her arms and tried to take out a handkerchief to wipe the sweat on her head.
"Huh?" Xiao Di was stunned as soon as he put his hand into his arms. He found that there was an extra piece of letter paper in his arms.
Xiao Di hurriedly took out the letter, glanced at it, and hurriedly handed the letter to Wu Mingzhe.
Wu Mingzhe took the letter in confusion. After seeing the content on the letter, his anger calmed down a little, but it didn't mean that he was no longer angry.
The letter was left by Li Zhenbang. It probably said that he had taken away the statue of the four-winged angel. It would definitely help him sell it for three million gold coins. He would bring the three million gold coins to him next time they meet. If Wu Mingzhe can't wait, then he can wait until the dividends come out and deduct them directly from the dividends.
Then it was Li Zhenbang who helped Wu Mingzhe come up with the idea, asking him to put the loss on the City Guards. Even if he couldn't extort three million, it shouldn't be a problem to extort hundreds of thousands, so just treat it like this. The interest of three million gold coins.
Of course, Li Zhenbang did not just come up with an idea, but also gave several feasible general plans, but Wu Mingzhe still needed to think about the details himself.
"Hmph! You still have some conscience!" After seeing Li Zhenbang's plan, Wu Mingzhe snorted, and then took Xiao Di back to implement the plan.
And the initiators of the whole incident, Li Zhenbang and Cui Lang, were already hundreds of miles away...
"Zhenbang, do you think Wu Mingzhe, that old and cunning guy, would be so angry if he knew what we were doing? It would be best if he could be so angry that he would be beaten to death. Then no one would know the whereabouts of this four-winged angel statue. ." Cui Lang asked happily.
"Brother Lang, you are looking down on Wu Mingzhe too much. Although this four-winged angel statue is expensive, it is not enough to make him angry to death."
"My dividends from the Jucaiyuan Chamber of Commerce are far more than this money. If Omega has died, these dividends will most likely be lost. But if Omega is not dead, then this dividend is real."
"These dividends are in their hands, so the four-winged angel statue seems to be lost, but in fact it is no different from selling it." Li Zhenbang explained.
"I'm quite curious. What secrets do you have with the Jucaiyuan Chamber of Commerce? Not only do you have a rare golden token, but you also get high dividends. Are you Zhen Shoucai's illegitimate son?" Cui Lang looked at Li Zhenbang with a gossipy face.
"If I were really his illegitimate son, do you think he might cut off my financial resources? Fortunately, I am smart. Although I didn't get the money, the things I got were enough for us to live happily for a while. It seems that before Omega was born , we are going to live in poverty for a while!" Li Zhenbang said helplessly.
Cui Lang curled his lips, not talking about the items Li Zhenbang got from the auction, but the things Li Zhenbang got from the fourth floor of the Jucaiyuan Chamber of Commerce. After selling them cheaply, they would be enough to cover normal expenses for a while.
"What are you going to do next? I heard that there are some very interesting places in Liberty City. How about I take you around?" Cui Lang suggested.
Li Zhenbang looked at Cui Lang meaningfully, then said with a smile: "I want to find the Pope first!"
"Well... let's discuss it!" Cui Lang looked at Li Zhenbang flatteringly.
"No need to discuss!" Li Zhenbang said firmly. Remember the website address of this website, www. Biquxu. Com for easy reading next time, or enter " " in Baidu to enter this site
