Chapter 187 Who is measuring whom?
Zhu Mengmeng's words did not cause any ripples in the room. The old man was still playing chess. Du Lianfeng just smiled faintly: "Miss Zhu, you are joking. There are many men who want to lick you. We have to do the opposite."
He looked at the two Calabash Brothers, and a strange color flashed in his eyes, as if he was disturbed by the strange power of the mask, making it impossible to determine where the two people came from.
He didn't care, and just continued: "Please take a seat, everyone. We are here to discuss business."
Zhu Mengmeng wanted to say something, but Qiu Wuji pulled her twice. Zhu Mengmeng stopped talking and sat down angrily.
Zhong Yi and Chu Ge also sat beside her, watching Du Lianfeng and waiting for him to reveal his cards.
Du Lianfeng gestured, and a charming OL woman in black stockings came over and started making tea for everyone.
Qiu Wuji looked at the clothes and then at Chu Ge. Chu Ge sat obediently, his expression hidden by the mask.
Qiu Wuji curled his lips.
The aroma of tea rose in the air. Du Lianfeng leaned back on the sofa and said slowly, "Ms. Zhu must know that all we want is the ore, and we will buy it at the market price, or even at a higher price..."
Zhu Mengmeng said directly: "Not for sale!"
"Why bother?" Du Lianfeng sighed, "Your father has changed his career a long time ago. This mine is no longer of much use to him... We are all sensible people, so there is no need to hide it. There is spiritual energy in this purple sand mine. Your father must have looked for the source, but it seems that no clues have been found after so many years. Since everyone wants to find it, then either cooperate to find it, or let us do it. What's the point of occupying the toilet without doing anything?"
"The mine is ours, why do you care how we use it? Even if we really shit in it, what does it have to do with you?" Zhu Mengmeng slammed the table and said, "I see you can't do it now. I, your wife, really want to use it. Don't just occupy the toilet without doing anything. If you can't do it, let my bodyguard come, or let my bodyguard develop it together, how about that?"
Chu Ge started to cough dryly, and Qiu Wuji glared at Zhu Mengmeng with both anger and amusement.
Du Lianfeng did not get angry, but just said: "I will not argue with you on this kind of trivial matter... The fact is, if you have the ability to ask me to give you my wife, I will give it to you, including me as your secretary. If you want it, take it... The premise is that you have the ability to do so."
"Just like you beat up my dad and thought that was a skill?"
Du Lianfeng suddenly smiled and said, "No need to record, the equipment will become ineffective."
Zhu Mengmeng: “…”
Du Lianfeng said calmly: "Our ability is that we can make you start to consider whether all this is worth it... In fact, you don't need to agree to anything. When Mr. Zhu knows that I have an appointment with you, he may take the initiative to contact me to sell the mine. Do you believe it?"
Zhu Mengmeng remained silent, thinking back to yesterday when her father did show some regret, and she was afraid that she would get hurt.
Weighing whether it's worth it...
But Zhu Mengmeng still felt suffocated. Should good people be pointed at with guns?
Du Lianfeng added: "Even if Zhong Yi came to warn me and threw me off the building...what's the use? He can't protect you forever. You won't take this into account in your self-risk assessment."
Zhong Yi frowned but did not refute.
Because that's the truth.
But there seems to be something strange here, and I can’t figure it out for a moment.
Chu Ge was also thinking, according to what Du Lianfeng said, there was no need for him to throw Lao Zhu downstairs again. He was even waiting for Lao Zhu to sell the mine to protect his daughter. Why kill Lao Zhu for no reason? Just to show off his fist?
But Du Lianfeng finally concluded: "So Miss Zhu, please give me a final answer whether you will sell it or not. If you don't want to sell it, you can go back. We will wait for your father's other reply."
Zhu Mengmeng's hands and feet were cold. She found that the result of her deduction was just like this. As long as the other party came to her, her father would definitely sell it on his own initiative. There was no need for the other party to really do anything. The goal had been achieved.
But it’s so frustrating!
So angry!
Chu Ge suddenly spoke: "Is Mr. Du too confident?"
"Oh?" Du Lianfeng looked at him with amusement: "What special insights does Mr. Calabash Brothers have?"
"The Zhu family has bodyguards. Maybe they didn't have them before, but they do now. When assessing their risks, they may not include Lao Zhong, but they will include their own bodyguards."
"Your Excellency?"
"That's me."
Du Lianfeng asked in a playful tone, "Are you confident that you can protect the Zhu family from any more accidents?"
Chu Ge said calmly: "No one can guarantee that there will be no accidents... But I can guarantee that if they have another accident, you will die."
Du Lianfeng was stunned, and the old man who had been playing chess next to him was also stunned and looked up at Chu Ge.
Even Zhong Yi and Zhu Mengmeng looked at Chu Ge in surprise, as if they couldn't believe that these words came out of his mouth, and... that tone was indifferent and calm, as if he was standing in the clouds, overlooking your life and death.
The only one who was not surprised was Qiu Wuji.
Just less than an hour ago, the sunrise that the real body saw in the world of the book came earlier.
A heaven that controls the world and looks down on all living beings like ants. Chu Ge is not a schizophrenic patient. This meaning will sooner or later be reflected in reality.
The more someone tries to challenge this by going beyond the rules, the more likely it is that he will become more unruly.
Especially... under the mask, it seems that one can unscrupulously turn that sunny and smiling face into a cold one.
"In fact, I'm not just talking about the Zhu family, but the entire Nanjiang. Whenever there's a case, I'll come to you." Chu Ge said slowly, "You said you want to stay in Nanjiang permanently, so your residence and company can't be hidden. I'd like to borrow your words to let you think about it and see if it's worth it."
Du Lianfeng squinted his eyes and looked at him for a long time, then suddenly laughed: "Interesting...haha...actually, Zhong Yi also tried to tell me this last night. This is how I got all these injuries, but I still don't think this is enough to scare me. I really want to know, what method can you use to overcome these injuries, so that I can judge whether it is worth it?"
Chu Ge looked at the chessboard on the coffee table and said, "I heard that you guys often use gambling to decide who owns the items, but also to show off your muscles?"
Du Lianfeng smiled and said, "So, you want to play chess with Lao Qi? That's meaningless. Even if you beat Lao Qi, it doesn't make us afraid of you."
"That may not be the case." Chu Ge said calmly: "At least the police won't know how he died... and you may also die in this way."
Du Lianfeng's face finally changed.
He truly felt the murderous intent of this person. It was not a warning or lesson like Zhong Yi's, but a real death threat.
Where did such a desperado come from in Nanjiang?
The old man Qi Chengtai finally spoke: "How do you plan to fight?"
Chu Ge said, "Your name is Qi Chengtai. You have been obsessed with chess since you were a child and have been playing for seventy years... I know that your ability is not only effective in coaxing people to play chess, but it can also force people to play chess, and the end point must be one side's failure. Once you lose, at best your soul will be scattered and you will fall into a coma, at worst your soul will be destroyed and you will die, right?"
Qi Chengtai felt a little startled. Zhong Yi didn't even know this information. How did this person know it?
But he was still very confident in his ability, and said calmly: "That's right. If you enter my chess game, there is only one solution, that is, you can really beat me in chess. Even if your other abilities are a hundred times better than mine, it will be meaningless."
Zhong Yi hurriedly pulled Chu Ge and whispered hurriedly: "This man has been playing chess all his life. It is really unreasonable to compete with him in chess. Don't choose this."
Chu Ge said calmly: "Superpowers have never been about cause and effect. You don't have to play chess to break his chess game. You just need to let him know what backlash is."
He was absolutely confident that the other party could not withstand the backlash of a world.
In fact, he is confident when it comes to playing chess, because he can cheat - let the fairy chess player in the book play the game against him.
Qi Chengtai sneered: "A newborn calf is not afraid of a tiger. Since you are looking for death, then come on."
"Wait." Qiu Wuji, who had been silent all this time, suddenly grabbed Chu Ge's hand and said, "I'll play this round."
Chu Ge was stunned.
Qiu Wuji transmitted his voice in secret: "It's just a game of chess. He has been playing for seventy years, and I have been playing for ten thousand years. And how can he compare with the calculation power of immortals? Even if there are a thousand of them, he can't beat me..."
Chu Ge also knew that Qiu Wuji had no reason to lose. Even if he lost, why would the other party hurt the soul of a cultivator who was undergoing tribulation? If Qiu Qiu wanted to make a move, it would be a complete defeat.
But I can't help but be curious: "Why do you want to fight for this game?"
"First, it's because he was the one who hurt Mengmeng's father, and I want to teach him a lesson myself. Second, Qiu Wuji glanced at Du Lianfeng: "The Du Lianfeng who can drag people into the Chu River and Han River is the one you should try to play against."
