Chapter 271 Can’t Return to the Capital
North City Airport.
A group of people hurried towards the terminal in the night.
"Boss, Liu Cong hasn't come yet. Are you sure it will be okay for us to go back a day earlier?" Jiang Bei asked as he followed Han Xi, pulling the suitcase.
Han Xi looked at the watch on his wrist, his eyes dark. "When did he book his flight?"
"It's nine tomorrow morning, so it should be close to noon when we get there."
Han Xi mused, "It's okay, let's go."
"yes."
Things are basically back on track in Taihu Bay. According to the plan, Han Xi was supposed to take tomorrow's flight. He would wait for the group's new project supervisor Liu Cong to arrive, complete the handover, and then leave.
result.......
Thinking of the news from the capital, Han Xi could no longer sit still.
It is now nine o'clock in the evening and the plane will take off in forty minutes. The bodyguard sent the two to the check-in gate, and Han Xi and Jiang Bei prepared to go through security and board the plane.
At this moment, a group of people appeared nearby.
"etc!"
The bodyguards who had not left immediately looked over with vigilance. There were four or five strong and agile bodyguards on the opposite side. Soon the bodyguards moved aside, and the person who had just shouted was revealed.
"Xiu Jin, I'm your third uncle!"
The person who came was Han Yi, who was supposed to be in the capital. Seeing that Han Xi was not going to pay attention to him, he squeezed through the crowd and pulled Han Xi out.
Han Xi's dark eyes sank slightly, and he lowered his eyes to look at the hand that was pulling his shirt.
Han Yi's expression froze for a moment, then he smiled and let go.
"Are you going back to the capital?"
Han Xi said nothing. Jiang Bei, who was pulling the suitcase, also stepped out and stood aside. "Yes, Third Master, what are your instructions?"
"I dare not give the order, but you may not be able to return to the capital."
Jiang Bei frowned, and even Han Xi beside him raised his eyes coldly.
"Third Master, what do you mean by this?" Jiang Bei sneered.
"You don't think I'm deliberately stopping you here to do something about the Taihu Bay project, do you?"
Han Xi didn't speak, and Jiang Bei didn't speak either.
Han Yi's smile faded, and he immediately revealed a bit of grievance: "Xiu Jin, you've misunderstood Third Uncle. Is Third Uncle that kind of person? Besides, the Taihu Bay project originally belonged to our Han family. There are two Hans in the same sentence. It's my subordinates who were too unruly. It's only right that you replace them now. How could I possibly cause trouble for you over this!"
Hearing the broadcast urging passengers who had not yet boarded the plane to check in and enter the station, Han Xi's eyes showed a hint of impatience.
"Uncle San, just say what you want to say."
Han Yi's face froze, and then he frowned fiercely: "You don't know?"
“.......”
"Something happened at the mining area! Didn't your fourth uncle tell you?!" Han Yi said with a worried look on his face.
Jiang Bei frowned immediately: "Impossible!"
Han Yi: "How is it impossible? I called my fourth brother today, and he was hesitant on the phone. I guessed he was hiding something, so I immediately contacted an employee who used to have some friendship with me. Do you know what he said?"
“…”
"He said the mine has been shut down for three days because a miner accidentally crossed the boundary while mining. The Zhao family is now holding onto this matter and has detained eight of our miners. They're demanding 40 percent of the raw stones as compensation before they'll release them!"
"Didn't your fourth uncle tell you about such a big thing? Xiu Jin, it's no exaggeration to say that the mining area is the Han family's main base. This is no small matter!"
There was finally a subtle change on Han Xi's cold face.
He glanced at Jiang Bei next to him, and Jiang Bei immediately let go of the box, took out his cell phone and walked to the side.
Han Yi's eyes moved slightly, and he glanced at Jiang Bei calmly, with no change in his expression.
Soon, Jiang Bei came over with a serious expression after finishing the call.
He leaned over to Han Xi's ear and whispered, "Jiangdong has also been detained, so we haven't received any news. What the Third Master said is basically true. The mining area is now under the control of the Fourth Master alone. He may be blocking the news in order to seize power."
Han Xi's eyebrows moved slightly, and then he glanced at Han Yi opposite him.
"Uncle San is worthy of being Uncle San. You have people in Mamba."
Han Yi's expression changed slightly, then he smiled: "That's not Xiu Jin at all, it's just a coincidence that a former employee happened to be there."
Han Xi curled his lips slightly and said nothing.
Listening to the increasingly frequent broadcasts, he looked at the watch on his wrist, then frowned and said to Jiang Bei: "I'm not going back to Beijing, I'm going to Mamba."
Jiang Bei: "Yes, I'll apply for the route right away."
After Jiang Bei left, Han Xi looked at Han Yi again, and after a moment of silence, he slowly said, "Third Uncle is so busy, and he specially rushed all the way from the capital to tell me this. I can't let Third Uncle make a wasted trip."
The uncle and nephew looked at each other, and there was deep meaning in their eyes.
Although Han Yi's face was calm, it was not difficult to tell from his eyes that he was a little nervous and expectant at the moment.
Han Xi stared at him quietly for a long while, then pursed his lips slightly: "I feel at ease leaving Taihu Bay to Third Uncle. I'll arrange for your people to take over tomorrow."
Han Yi couldn't help but smile.
Then he came to his senses and found that his nephew was staring at him deeply.
Han Yi's smile disappeared, and he quickly put on a worried look, saying what he thought was sincerity, "Third Uncle isn't telling you this for this reason. However, since you're going to deal with Mamba's affairs, Third Uncle, as a member of the Han family, should naturally help you keep an eye on this side."
"Don't worry, Uncle San is here at Taihu Bay. Nothing will go wrong, and the project will proceed on schedule!"
Han Xi's expression was indifferent: "Thank you for your hard work, Uncle San."
Half an hour later, the route application was approved, and Han Xi and Jiang Bei turned around and boarded the private plane to Mamba.
Looking at the plane flying overhead, Han Yi finally revealed a sneer of determination in his eyes.
"My nephew is truly power-oriented. Look, family ties are nothing to him. Even as his uncle, I have to provide valuable information to get what I want from him."
"Third Master, what should we do now? If we miss Fourth Master's plan, will he find out later..."
Han Yi's face turned cold: "What are you afraid of! The Han family is a place where the strong prey on the weak, and the capable are at the top. If he didn't keep it secret and the news leaked, it has nothing to do with us."
"Can......."
Han Yi's eyes flashed with a sinister look, and the bodyguard immediately fell silent.
"Inform Chen Song to go to North City tomorrow morning to take over the Taihu Bay project. Tell him not to mess around with me again and let people find fault with him, otherwise, get out!"
"yes."
"By the way, tell the Second Master that Han Xi has left. He... forget it, I'll talk to him."
"yes."
"cell phone."
The bodyguard took out his cell phone and handed it over respectfully.
