Chapter 115: How did the enemy come about?
"Well, it's time to buy a hat to block the sun. I should also buy some Huoxiang Zhengqi water, but it's a pity we don't have it here." Secretary Wang responded.
"Then you should send someone to buy it." Komnenos looked at him.
"The bodyguards have all sent my niece away."
"You really didn't keep any for yourself?"
"Yes." Secretary Wang nodded calmly and said, "I am different from Mr. Komnenos. I have no enemies."
Komnenos: "..."
Komnenos was speechless, but he still waved to a bodyguard and assigned him the task of buying a hat.
The bodyguard was stunned, thinking for a moment that he had misheard. He could not help but stare at Li Xiaoya for several more times before going out to buy a hat.
This one.
Sheng Yuxiao poured a glass of water for Wei Wenjuan.
Wei Wenjuan whispered, "Thank you." Although he had a sharp temper, he was not a fool. He knew that Sheng Yuxiao was being polite to him just for Xiaoya's sake.
"Mr. Wei, you are so polite. I originally wanted to come here to give the duck a surprise..."
"In the end, you almost got a shock, right?" Wei Wenjun sighed, his brows furrowed.
At this moment, Wei Wenjun's cell phone vibrated.
He received a message from his brother, asking why he disappeared.
Wei Wenjun called directly and said, "It's okay, you don't have to come to me, just hide well."
Of course, there was no need to wait for Wei Wenqing's response. He hung up the phone immediately, then looked up at Sheng Yuxiao in front of him again.
As early as the time when he had dinner with General Manager Zhou and discussed how to kick General Manager Liu out, Wei Wenjun had witnessed Sheng Yuxiao's cleverness.
"Since you said the duckling is safe, I believe you." Wei Wenjun's expression returned to calm.
"But safety is only temporary after all. We still have to bring her back," said Wei Wenjun.
"Of course." Sheng Yuxiao's face looked a little grim.
He asked: "What do you know about this Komnenos?"
"Real name unknown, real age unknown."
"Wait, when he signed the contract, did he also use a fake name?"
Wei Wenjun smiled helplessly. Only then did he realize that although Young Master Sheng was smart, he was still a little young.
"What kind of business does Young Master Sheng think he is doing?"
Sheng Yuxiao pursed his lips and said, "I see. What else?"
"He is suspicious, arrogant, a little crazy, and paranoid..."
"Other people are more particular about what they do, but he is not. He is always surrounded by a group of people who came back from the battlefield."
Sheng Yuxiao asked, "From what battlefield did this person come?"
"You are worthy of being Master Sheng." Wei Wenjun praised him first, and then continued, "There is indeed a difference between battlefields and battlefields. However, Master Sheng lives in China, so he may not be aware that there are several places abroad that have been in war for many years and are known as the empire's meat grinder. Komnenos specializes in accepting mercenaries who survived from these places."
In fact, Wei Wenjuan didn't need to explain it too clearly, Sheng Yuxiao already knew what the so-called Imperial Meat Grinder was.
"It's okay if he's a mercenary, at least he's not some kind of fanatical worshiper." Sheng Yuxiao said calmly.
"It's hard to say. Once someone offended Komnenos, he was punished with a special punishment."
Sheng Yuxiao frowned, but his expression remained generally calm.
Wei Wenjuan immediately understood why he was so sure about the duckling's safety.
Is it because there is someone from the Sheng family around Komnenos? And that person is very reliable? Will he be able to persuade Komnenos?
"How did you become enemies?" Sheng Yuxiao asked again.
"Wei Lin actually knows this better, because my father was not in good health at the time and was rushed to the hospital twice. From then on, Wei Lin tried to take over the first thing in the family - protecting a person in the name of normal business activities. This person is a very important white glove."
Sheng Yuxiao was surprised and asked, "You are still doing PMC business?"
"What else should we do? Grab territories like the gangsters in the movies? Sell illegal items? That's outdated. Our family has our own transportation lines and channels. Young Master Sheng should understand what this means, right?"
Sheng Yuxiao raised his eyebrows. The Gui family's business was a little bigger than expected.
It's just that the old man seems to have intentionally tightened his "business empire" a bit. Probably for both physical and mental reasons.
"Well, let's go on... This White Glove has a very high status. In other words, protecting him should be a very easy thing. Because no one would be so blind as to provoke him. But... Komnenos is a madman. For some unknown reason, this man offended Komnenos, and Komnenos was at loggerheads with him, so he killed the man openly at a cocktail party."
"How could Weilin be willing to do this when he messed up his first job? He went to my father and asked him to teach Komnenos a lesson in the name of not wanting to damage the family's reputation."
"My father actually agreed." Wei Wenjun shook his head.
This is also the reason why he angrily accused his own father on the phone.
Although the Gui family has long since transformed and no longer engages in traditional mafia activities, the family and the company, from top to bottom, still adhere to the same operating logic -
We must maintain the reputation of the host family and also uphold brotherhood.
In modern society, what's the point of settling scores? The hatreds that are created are not just one but many.
Why has Wen Yu’s whereabouts not been found for all these years?
To put it bluntly, there are just too many enemies...
Wei Wenjun took a deep breath, suppressed his complicated emotions, and put away his ugly expression. He said, "I'm sorry, I lost my composure."
"Since the White Glove has a very high status, it should be easy for you to get rid of Komnenos together." Sheng Yuxiao said, "What happened again?"
Wei Wenjun spread his hands helplessly and said: "Komnenos' luck is really good. At that moment, this white glove was exposed for multiple crimes. His former colleagues certainly would not avenge him. And his successor maintained a very delicate relationship with Komnenos."
"Later, we messed up several of Komnenos's deals. We became enemies after the back and forth. More importantly, Komnenos wanted the transportation lines in the hands of the Gui family."
Sheng Yuxiao pressed his temples and felt that this matter was a bit beyond the scope.
The Sheng family and the Qin family are mortal enemies, but within the legal framework of China, no one wants to resort to violence. Although the fighting in the business world is also bloodless, it does not require guarding against a group of extremely vicious criminals.
"Actually, there is a very easy way to get out of this situation..." Sheng Yuxiao said, raising his head.
"Shengda Shao has any ideas?"
"Pick a suitable time to leave here."
"But little duck..."
"The duckling will only be safer if you leave."
"Why do you say that?"
Sheng Yuxiao said with a complicated expression: "Because Komnenos may not know who Li Xiaoya is, what does it have to do with you."
"But he clearly kidnapped..."
"Is it really kidnapping?"
At this time, a bodyguard knocked on the door and came in, saying in a low voice: "Comnenus's men are making a move."
"Where are they going? Are they going to look for Wen Qing?" Wei Wenjun's face darkened.
"Our people have caught up..." the bodyguard said as the walkie-talkie in his hand began to ring.
A voice came from the other end: "The Komnenos man went into a store... Oh, he came out, and he was holding... He was holding a child's hat? There were two flowers on it?"
Wei Wenjun:?
Who cares if there are flowers on it?
"Komnenos' men went to buy another bucket of ice cream and a marshmallow..." The voice on the other end became more and more strange.
Wei Wenjuan suddenly came to his senses and said in an extremely ridiculous tone: "...Buy it for the duck?"
Sheng Yuxiao interrupted and asked, "Are you willing to leave now?"
