Zhao Xiaoyue's face was so dark it could drip ink.
Yang Zhenzhen spoke very seriously about Ma Taiping's matter, "Boss, this is too difficult to handle. He's simply inhuman. He's ruined that girl beyond recognition."
Hou Taotao has never been a big smoker, but at this moment, he was unusually holding a cigarette in his hand, the rising smoke obscuring his face.
Yang Zhenzhen felt disgusted by this. You can do whatever you want, but why did you have to mess with a woman from such a prestigious family? It's like an old man hanging himself!
Now look what's happened; they've found the hunter and are demanding an explanation from the helmsman.
"Tell me about the Lü family. What is their status and interpersonal relationships in Kyoto?" Zhao Xiaoyue asked in a deep voice.
Geng Qiusheng replied, "The Lü family is an old and prestigious family in Kyoto. They were at their peak in the 1970s and 80s, but they have declined now. They have been living off their ancestors' wealth until now. They have a marriage alliance with the Fang family, but they are both from collateral branches."
Zhao Xiaoyue asked, "Is that all?"
Geng Qiusheng nodded, "Yes, that's all!"
Hou Taotao wondered what the captain would do.
He really wanted to pickle Ma Taiping; damn it, he's always causing trouble.
Zhao Xiaoyue asked Hou Taotao, "Brother Tao, tell me about the Northwest Farm, the more detailed the better!"
She's going to kill Ma Taiping! Cut off this cancerous growth!
Hou Taotao looked up in disbelief; taking the helm meant...
As expected of a sieve expert, he guessed Zhao Xiaoyue's intentions immediately.
Zhao Xiaoyue glanced at her and asked, "Is it not allowed?"
Yang Zhenzhen & Geng Qiusheng: "???"
Look at Hou Taotao and then at the helmsman. What are they talking about?
Geng Qiusheng thought for a moment, then suddenly turned to look at Zhao Xiaoyue.
No way, taking the helm requires...
The pale-faced scholar had already guessed it.
Zhao Xiaoyue thought to herself, "Luckily, I have two quick-witted people, otherwise I would have been disgusted to death."
Hou Taotao and Geng Qiusheng exchanged a glance, then looked at the helmsman.
Zhao Xiaoyue ignored them, tapping her fingers on the table as if tapping on everyone's hearts.
Thump, thump, thump, thump.
After a while, Zhao Xiaoyue seemed to have made up her mind, "Let's talk about this when we get back. Let's deal with the Lü family's matter first. After all, Ma Taiping is one of the Hunters' men."
Zhao Xiaoyue let out a soft groan.
This gave Hou Taotao and the other two a sense of oppression, as if Master Pu were in power. This "heh" was also a bit unsettling!
Zhao Xiaoyue: "Are you sure he'll just hand over the land in the outskirts of Beijing like that?"
Hou Taotao took a drag of his cigarette. If Sixth Brother were here, he would be sure, but now he was a little unsure.
"Probably..."
Zhao Xiaoyue didn't resort to sarcasm. "Tomorrow, should we meet at the Royal International Hotel, or somewhere else?"
Hou Taotao looked at Geng Qiusheng.
The fifth brother twirled his two thumbs twice. “I’ll go arrange it, sir. The location is the Peace Hotel. That’s Fang family territory; nobody dares to cause trouble there!”
Zhao Xiaoyue nodded, "Let's meet tomorrow afternoon."
“Okay,” Geng Qiusheng replied.
Hou Taotao then gave a detailed account of the Northwest Farm, which Geng Qiusheng then supplemented.
Ma Taiping is almost fifty years old this year. He is not very educated and is the only son in his family. He has an older sister who married a junior member of a collateral branch of the Pu family.
From this perspective alone, he has no relation to the Pu family. However, his older sister is restless and seduced a younger member of the Pu family who is within five degrees of kinship. This younger member is quite interesting; he is the posthumous son of a member of the Pu family who died in the war.
In other words, his sister seduced Pu Liuye's cousin.
My cousin died, and that lineage ended. Master Pu Liu never married, so the Pu family now only has this posthumous child as its lineage.
There are no younger members in the Pu family; this is their only son.
Therefore, no matter how big a mistake is made, the Pu family always makes a lot of noise but accomplishes little.
Because the Pu family had made contributions to society, the grain farms inherited from their ancestors were not handed over to the state, but were granted special operating rights.
The Ma family used to manage these grain estates, and they still do now. However, 70% of the management rights are now in the hands of Master Pu, while the remaining 20% are in the hands of this younger generation. The remaining 10% is shared between the rest of the Pu family and the Ma family.
At the end of the year, Pu Liuye's dividends were directly deposited into his account at the central bank, but he didn't really care about such things.
As for the rest, Hou Taotao and the others didn't care; they only cared about Pu Liuye's part.
They meet once a year, but it's only when the nine of them go to the Northwest together, instead of Ma Taiping coming to Haishi.
Zhao Xiaoyue was shocked. "So, he's been posing as a hunter outside, and you have no idea what he's been doing? Or is there some kind of connection between them?"
Zhao Xiaoyue was stunned!
She thought that when Hou Taotao said "Ma Taiping is one of the hunters," she meant someone like Hou Taotao and the others, someone who was officially employed by the hunters. Turns out, it was because of his relationship with the mistress.
Hou Taotao swallowed hard. "That's not entirely true. We investigated this person, and apart from being a womanizer, he managed those dozen or so grain farms quite well."
Zhao Xiaoyue almost fainted from anger. She slammed her hand on the table and said, "Hou Taotao, do you think that if someone stabs you to death, then burns incense and apologizes, the person who stabbed you to death was forced to do it, and that he's still a good person?"
Hou Taotao fell silent.
He heard the captain swear several times today.
Geng Qiusheng also sensed that something was wrong.
But he offered a weak explanation: "We're in charge of a lot of things..."
Before she could finish speaking, Zhao Xiaoyue slammed her hand on the table, shouting, "Is this your excuse? This is brainless! Why are you still trying to pin this on the grain store? Don't you know how to find a backer? Don't you know how to find a partner? Damn it!"
Yang Zhenzhen didn't quite understand, and pitifully cried out, "Hold the helm!"
Zhao Xiaoyue yelled, "Shut up!!"
Yang Zhenzhen lowered her head and dared not speak!
The helmsman is so fierce, she's not like a girl at all.
He could only chirp in his heart; he was afraid that if he spoke it aloud, the captain would slap him to death.
Yu Muqi once said that the captain slapped a table in Changyuan so hard it cracked, and that table was made of marble!
"What do we do now? What about the Lü family?" Zhao Xiaoyue spun around in anger.
Hou Taotao and Geng Qiusheng dared not say what to do.
I made the captain angry today.
Zhao Xiaoyue suppressed her anger, "Geng Qiusheng, think of a way to shift the blame for the Lü family's affairs onto Ma Taiping himself, so that people don't think this is the Hunter's style of doing things, that he has to clean up his own mess."
Geng Qiusheng tentatively asked, "What if the people in Sixth Brother's clan..."
Zhao Xiaoyue laughed in exasperation, "Your sixth brother is practically dying, why are you still worrying about those trivial matters? What connection does Ma Taiping have with the Pu family..."
Geng Qiusheng's eyes lit up. Yes, Ma Taiping and the hunter had absolutely no connection!
He slapped his forehead. Hou Taotao had also figured it out. It was all because of Sixth Brother's suicidal thoughts. He thought that the hunter belonged to Sixth Brother, so he was somewhat considerate of the Pu family bloodline.
However, Ma Taiping has no connection with the Pu family. The Hunter is currently in charge of Zhao Xiaoyue, which has even less to do with Ma Taiping.
I'm so ashamed of how stupid I am! I'm so incredibly stupid!
