C27 Money Hoodwinks

After so long, Xi Qingyang finally revealed her plan. She must have been holding it in for a long time. Hao Zhongtian did not show any emotion and nodded. "You can decide."

The corner of Xi Qingyang's mouth tilted into a smile, and she couldn't help but mock him in her heart: "Great, Zhongtian, I love you so much."

At this moment, she was so immersed in the pleasant environment that she did not notice Hao Zhongtian's gloomy eyes.

At the same time, in the Xi family, Xi Zongtan was preparing for the project that was about to be launched. This was a dangerous project to trade in firearms overseas. If it succeeded, the profit would not be child's play. It would be a lot of money.

Deputy Governor Chen was listening to the father and daughter, Xi Zongtan and Xi Qingyang, on the other end of the phone, and actually had this idea. Never-ending Castle had started out as a black market business, and over the years, when Shui Yunqing took over, he stopped these black market businesses. In the past two years, there had always been people who were eager to try, but he did not expect that Xi Zongtan would also have this idea.

Xi Zongtan found him because he wanted to make use of his identity as governor, but seeing that the benefits given by the Xi family were so great, Deputy Governor Chen rubbed his greasy head with his fat head, and his dark eyes revealed a greedy look. He made up his mind. If something happened, he would just not admit it. If nothing happened, he would just turn a blind eye to it, and he could still make money.

People were always blinded by ambition and rich profits. Xi Zongtan used his old connections to quickly contact the largest drug trading area in Southeast Asia. It was chaotic, but it was also the lowest place in the country.

On the surface, Xi Qingyang was doing a list of foreign trade, but in fact, she was using this to contact overseas. Now that she had Hao Zhongtian's funding, it was simply adding fuel to the fire for her.

The three of them were colluding with each other to deal with these shady businesses.

Hao Zhongtian pretended to casually look at the details of the foreign trade contract on the contract. It seemed like he would have to work with Shui Yunqing again. Never-ending Castle knew this kind of contract the best, so he accepted the list without leaving a trace.

After taking the list, Hao Zhongtian went to Hao Tianwan's room. When he saw that his daughter was sleeping soundly, he kissed her gently on the forehead and looked at her lovingly. As he looked on, Hao Zhongtian seemed to see Xi Wanyi's expression. He couldn't help but lean forward and kiss her hard.

Hao Tianwan was woken up by the kiss. Seeing that her daughter was woken up with a start and wanted to cry, Hao Zhongtian immediately picked her up and gently patted her back.

"Sleep, sleep, my little darling." He remembered that Xi Wanyi used to coax her daughter to sleep in the same way, so he used the same method. Unexpectedly, this method was very effective. Hao Tianwan immediately fell asleep again.

It was his mother's method that worked, wasn't it, little rascal? Did you miss your mother? Hao Zhongtian asked himself and Hao Tianwan in his heart.

Inside Never-ending Castle, Yang Xiaoqing, Shui Yunqing, and Xi Wanyi were still eating.

"It's been a long time since so many people have eaten together. I've been eating alone during this period of recuperation." Shui Yunqing was the first to break the awkwardness.

"Of course, Hao Zhongtian would occasionally come to see me. Fortunately, I have him, or else it would be difficult for me to be alone. I didn't expect that my old enemy would become someone who helps each other." Shui Yunqing smiled helplessly.

"Ahem." Yang Xiaoqing suddenly coughed.

Shui Yunqing looked at Yang Xiaoqing, who gave him a look. Shui Yunqing looked at Xi Wanyi again, and suddenly regretted what he had said.

Xi Wanyi was a little stunned. She used her chopsticks to pick up the food in the bowl, her eyes empty. Suddenly, she picked up the wine glass and drank it all in one gulp. The atmosphere became a little subtle once again. Other than the sound of chopsticks and chopsticks, the Never-Ending Castle was terrifyingly quiet.

At that moment, a person walked in and broke the silence. Xi Wanyi looked up and saw a familiar figure in the distance. She suddenly threw down her bowl and chopsticks and ran upstairs.

Yang Xiaoqing and Shui Yunqing were puzzled, and only when they looked in that direction did they know that it was Hao Zhongtian.

"Hao Zhongtian, why didn't you say anything when you came? I wasn't mentally prepared." Shui Yunqing seemed to blame Hao Zhongtian a little.

Hao Zhongtian was getting a little impatient from his words.

"What? Why didn't you tell me to greet you when you were recovering?" After saying that, he sat down on the sofa.

"You guys continue to eat." Hao Zhongtian looked at the two people at the table. He did not find it strange when he saw Yang Xiaoqing. Anyone could see what Yang Xiaoqing was thinking about Shui Yunqing. However, to his surprise, he discovered that there was a pair of chopsticks beside Yang Xiaoqing. He suddenly remembered the sound of someone running upstairs when he came in, and instantly understood.

"Tell me, what business do you have with me today? Don't tell me you came here today to see us eat, or to see my injuries?" Shui Yunqing said coldly.

"Of course not. I have something important to do today. Come upstairs after dinner and we'll talk." With that, Hao Zhongtian walked upstairs as if he was in his own home.

This brat really didn't treat him as an outsider. Shui Yunqing was a little unhappy in his heart.

Hao Zhongtian slowly walked upstairs. When he reached the second floor, he saw a shadow moving in the room opposite the stairs, so he walked in. The silence made him hear the person's rapid breathing.

Hao Zhongtian left the room and walked towards the study room.

Although I really want to see you right now, I can't.

Hao Zhongtian walked into the study and sat on the leather sofa, waiting for Shui Yunqing.

"Xiao Qing, you eat first. I'll go upstairs and see what's going on with him."

"Alright, I'll go see Wanyi."

After saying that, the two of them went upstairs together.

"What do you want from me?" Shui Yunqing said coldly.

Hao Zhongtian took out the foreign trade list from his pocket and handed it over to Shui Yunqing.

"What is this, a foreign trade list?"

"This is the project Xi Qingyang told me about. I promised her I'd help her invest." Hao Zhongtian began to get serious.

"Do you really believe that this is just a simple foreign trade list?" Shui Yunqing's words revealed a sense of contempt and contempt.

When did he become so naive? Shui Yunqing examined the man sitting on the sofa, who was once a formidable opponent of his.

"Do you think I really believe you? I have already recovered my memories. Based on my understanding of Xi Qingyang, how could she possibly do business that only earns a small amount of money?" When Hao Zhongtian thought of Xi Qingyang, he felt an inexplicable sense of irritation. However, he had no choice. The time was not ripe yet. He could only pretend to have amnesia and calm Xi Qingyang down.

"Then do you want to cooperate with me now?" Shui Yunqing was a little surprised. He did not expect the two rivals to start working together again so soon.

"Yes, it is quite clear that what they want to trade in is not a commodity, but a black market that is illegal, and since you have the experience of doing so, of course I would like you to cooperate with me. After all, it would be good for both of us, wouldn't you say?" Hao Zhongtian looked at Shui Yunqing firmly. He knew that with Shui Yunqing's personality, he would definitely cooperate with him.

"Alright, I promise you. Go back and wait for my news." As expected, Shui Yunqing readily agreed to Hao Zhongtian's request for cooperation.

Hao Zhongtian revealed a rare first smile at Shui Yunqing. He looked at Shui Yunqing knowingly, stood up and walked out of the room.

"Thump, thump, thump." The sound of Hao Zhongtian's leather shoes echoed in the Never-ending Castle. Yang Xiaoqing finally brought Xi Wanyi out of the room. Xi Wanyi didn't know why, but she wanted to see Hao Zhongtian, but when she saw him, she subconsciously ran away. Xi Wanyi lowered her head and thought. When she raised her head, she was so scared that she took four or five steps back.

The person she wanted to see but was afraid to see appeared in front of her. Those familiar eyes were looking at her. In silence, Xi Wanyi suddenly felt that it was no big deal. It was as if she had suddenly become very strong and was not afraid to look him in the eye.

"Didn't you go downstairs? Why..." Yang Xiaoqing did not look any calmer than Xi Wanyi.

I want to see her. Hao Zhongtian didn't answer. He just looked at Xi Wanyi silently. He really wanted to hug her. The way he looked at her was so gentle that it almost melted his heart.

"Do you guys want to chat for a while?" Just as Yang Xiaoqing was about to leave, Hao Zhongtian suddenly turned around and quickly walked downstairs, leaving Xi Wanyi staring blankly at the place where he was standing.

Xi Qingyang returned to the Xi family to discuss the black market in the gunpowder business. Xi Zongtan, Deputy Governor Chen, had been waiting for her there for a long time. Because Xi Qingyang had the financial support of Hao Zhongtian, she was even more confident in front of them and spoke her mind confidently.

They decided that in order to fool others, they would not just meet at the same place. Although the location of the transaction was in the drug market, it was divided into different places. However, they would only exchange at one place. The other places were just to confuse others. After the goods were checked, the payment would be made and the goods would be delivered in one hand. At the same time, Deputy Governor Chen's men would have to take care of it and secretly protect it.

However, because it involved a very large amount of money and the gunpowder business, it was likely to be very dangerous. Although she had the support of Gu Zhongtian's funds, Xi Qingyang felt much more at ease. Because he, Gu Zhongtian, was a big shot. As long as he was willing to invest in a business, he would make a lot of money back. With such a big economy, who would let the money he invested go to waste? Wouldn't that be stupid?

Of course, Deputy Governor Chen was also a key figure. Since he was taking care of things, it would be much more convenient for him to do business. He was an important figure who could save people a lot of trouble.

However, Xi Qingyang's heart was still not at ease. She felt that, after all, she had never seen or worked with a foreign partner before, so how could she be so at ease in the gunpowder business with him? Just to be on the safe side, Xi Qingyang decided to send someone out of the country personally to find out more about the situation. The two sides would meet and prepare for the next deal.

The first person Xi Qingyang thought of was Lee Deyang. Lee Deyang was a person whom Xi Qingyang trusted and was proud of. He was the sales manager of the Xi family and the person who had helped Xi Qingyang's career the most. Of course, he also had many other identities.

Xi Qingyang immediately called Lee Deyang and asked him to come to the Xi family. She wanted to talk to him face to face. Lee Deyang agreed on the other end of the phone.

"What's wrong with this Xi Qingyang? Don't they usually meet at the hotel? How dare she call me to the Xi family today? She's not afraid of being seen by others, but I don't care. Could it be that she, a dignified young miss, has the same status as me?" Lee Deyang hung up the phone and was puzzled.
