Since Sun Yaowen has agreed to rely on him, there is nothing to worry about. According to Ma Hewen's speculation, shopkeeper Tian is even more weak-minded and likes to act according to the prevailing situation, so he can just lead the people to negotiate.

After appeasing his family, Sun Yaowen followed Li Yi out of the house and went directly to Shopkeeper Tian's house.

After knocking on the door, the concierge saw that Sun Yaowen was here. He didn't dare to neglect, so he went in to inform Shopkeeper Tian who was having fun with his concubine. After a while, he came out and led the two of them into the living room.

"Brother Sun, why are you here so late? Please take a seat." Shopkeeper Tian has a fat head, big ears, and a big belly that can hardly be seen on his feet. But because of this, he looks like Maitreya Buddha with a blessed face.

, he is one of the most reputable businessmen in Baoding Prefecture.

"Old Tian, ​​who do you think this person is?" Sun Yaowen followed Li Yi and said to shopkeeper Tian.

At this late hour, Shopkeeper Tian felt that Sun Yaowen must be in an emergency. Now that someone was introduced for him to take charge of, he couldn't help but get serious. He took a good look at Li Yi, but he couldn't remember that he had seen this person before.

"Brother Sun, you'd better tell me directly who this is." Shopkeeper Tian brought the tea bowl himself and placed it in front of the two of them.

Sun Yaowen didn't want to waste time and said: "This is the Qianlong Li Yi I often mentioned to you. This time he came to Gaoyang, and now he is accepted by the emperor's master Sun Chengzong and studies in the Sun family."

Originally, when it was said that Li Yi was An Xin Qianlong, shopkeeper Tian was still very calm, but when he heard that Li Yi had become a disciple of Sun Chengzong, he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows and the eagerness in his eyes became much stronger.

What about Anxin Li Yi? Although he does have some strength, his status is low and he is no higher than himself. But his status as a disciple of Sun Chengzong is different. It is an invitation to join the powerful in the future.

"Oh my, it turns out to be An Xin Qianlong, who is known as the most benevolent and righteous man. Old Tian, ​​I am so blind that I didn't recognize him just now." Shopkeeper Tian greeted Li Yi enthusiastically and complimented him with a smile.

Li Yi was not used to this kind of enthusiasm, but the compliments given to each other by Hotan shopkeepers were nothing more than official words like famous names that they had heard for a long time.

The three of them sat down. Sun Yaowen went straight to the topic and said, "Old Tian, ​​do you know where Deng Yutang is these days?"

Shopkeeper Tian was stunned when he heard this and said: "How do I know this? Deng Yutang is not here to collect money, but he will not come to my place. This man has a cold face and an even colder heart. He only has money in his eyes all day long, but he looks like this to those officials.

When I see him licking his face and complimenting me like my biological father, I don’t want to pay attention to him."

Deng Yutang was the best at running business and was a good hand in getting along with powerful people, but he was the most cunning and greedy towards the people around him, especially the wealthy shopkeeper Tian, ​​so shopkeeper Tian didn't like him and didn't bother to pay attention to his affairs.

Seeing his reaction, Sun Yaowen felt more at ease and said: "Deng Yutang is not elsewhere now, but in the hands of his brother."

"Brother?" Shopkeeper Tian's eyes were full of doubts.

Sun Yaowen smiled apologetically and said: "It's Li Yi. I have promised to follow him to do great things. It just so happened that Deng Yutang committed suicide and offended his brother, so I want my brother to be the master of this dental practice.

, lead us to create a career."

What Sun Yaowen said was not very clear, but how could Shopkeeper Tian, ​​who was already a veteran of the shopping mall, not understand. What he just meant was that Deng Yutang was finished, and Li Yi was now in charge of the dental store, and he fully supported it.

This is not a trivial matter. Although Yaxing cannot put it on the table, its subordinates are responsible for many hardships. This power is not small. How can an outsider get involved?

It seems that Sun Yaowen is too generous. Everyone knows that you admire An Xin and Li Yi, but there is no need to muddy the waters like this. When the time comes, the two reckless men, Hob Dragon and Liu Sandao, will unite.

, some are suffering.

Shopkeeper Tian's heart was filled with excitement, but there was no dissatisfaction on his face. Instead, he said: "Brother Sun still has a unique vision. The one in Baoding Mansion who doesn't know Qianlong Li Yi's name is famous. Now that he is Sun Chengzong's disciple, he is even more extraordinary.

If he takes charge of the dental clinic, it will definitely be successful."

We talked for a long time, and the compliments kept coming, and everyone listened to them, but Shopkeeper Tian never said a word about his position from the beginning to the end, whether he was opposed to it, supportive of it, or just sitting on the sidelines.

Sun Yaowen was not stupid either. He pulled Shopkeeper Tian's sleeve and said, "Brother Tian, ​​then you will be on the same path as us from now on. We will share the joys and sorrows together and we will definitely make a career in the world."

This was forcing him to express his position. How could Shopkeeper Tian let go so easily? But no matter how perfunctory he was, Sun Yaowen persuaded him and himself to support Li Yi.

This is a naked interest. How can you make a decision just because of a personal relationship? Sun Yaowen can only be a loyal hero, and there is no way to become a qualified superior.

"Yaowen, please stop first and let me have a good chat with Shopkeeper Tian." Li Yi kept watching the two of them evading, and now he didn't want to waste time like this, so he might as well take action himself.

Although shopkeeper Tian didn't know about An Xin's situation, he also knew that Li Yi was not weak. He didn't dare to be disrespectful at the moment and said with his hands in hand: "Brother Li, please tell me."

"Shopkeeper Tian, ​​now that Yaxing has no helmsman, do you want to take this position?" Li Yi chuckled.

In fact, all the stores in the dental shop say that Shopkeeper Tian is the richest, but to be the boss, it depends on the strength. Shopkeeper Tian’s subordinates are not strong, so they cannot succeed Deng Yutang at all, not to mention that some big households in Gaoyang will not allow a wealthy person.

The power of money and people appears.

"Hey, brother Li, how did you figure out that even if I were asked to do it, I wouldn't be able to take over as a dental shop?" Shopkeeper Tian's face was full of grievances.

Li Yi also believed this and said, "In that case, are you going to support Brother Sun to take over this family?"

Shopkeeper Tian shook his head, knowing that he would not be able to get through today, and simply said: "Actually, Old Tian, ​​I just want to be a rich man, and I really can't do anything about fighting for power. Whether you are An Xin, Li Yi, or my brother Sun Yaowen, they are not ordinary people.

It’s okay for me to take charge of this family. But the key is that there are still a few people in the dental shop, and whether Hobosaurus and the others agree or disagree is the key. As long as you can convince them, I have no objection and will definitely support it."

Shopkeeper Tian is worthy of being a veteran. His words are well-founded. He tells Li Yi and the others to persuade the Hob Dragon and the others. Can those two fierce men persuade them? Isn’t his plan to make both parties persuade them?

Get up, will he take refuge with whoever is stronger when the time comes?

Li Yi smiled coldly, Ma Hewen's calculation was clear. Shopkeeper Tian was indeed very cunning.

"Okay, let's ask the other two bosses to come out and see if they agree." Li Yi said, waving towards the door.

It was dark outside, and shopkeeper Tian didn't know why, so he stretched his head to look outside.

As soon as he stretched his head, he saw two objects flying in from the outside. The object wrapped in black cloth rolled to the ground and stopped directly in front of Shopkeeper Tian.

"This, this, what on earth is this?" Shopkeeper Tian said in shock.

He didn't need to open the package before he smelled the smell of blood, and there were blood stains on the carpet.

Li Yi didn't say anything. Sun Yaowen stepped forward and opened the two packages, revealing two heads. If it wasn't Hob Dragon and Liu Sandao, who else could it be?

Seeing the two famous fierce men in Gaoyang City, with their heads naked in front of him, Shopkeeper Tian couldn't bear it any more. He suddenly retreated and slumped down on the chair.

"You, you actually killed two of them?" Shopkeeper Tian screamed in confusion, pointing at Li Yi and the two of them, full of horror.

"Shopkeeper Tian, ​​we have already talked with Liu Sandao and Hob Dragon. They have agreed with us. Now you are the only one left. What do you think?" Li Yi said coldly.

This shopkeeper Tian is really too cunning, and he must pay attention to his power when using it in the future, otherwise he will definitely play tricks everywhere.

Looking at the bloody heads on the ground, and then looking at Li Yi and Sun Yaowen standing in front of him, Shopkeeper Tian knew that he had no choice. If he didn't agree to their conditions, his head might immediately end up with Hob Dragon and Liu Sandao.

together.

Those who know the current affairs are the best. Shopkeeper Tian forced himself to calm down and bowed to Li Yi: "In this case, I, Tian Fu, will rely on Li to take charge of the business. Tomorrow I will have someone send two thousand taels of silver to help the boss.

Stabilize the situation."

Just as Li Yigang was about to speak, Sun Yaowen stopped him and said, "Don't delay, boss. This money has always come from shopkeeper Tian. He is rich and wealthy, so it's nothing."

Shopkeeper Tian also said: "I still have a small amount of money here. I just joined the dental shop because I was afraid of being coveted by others. I just accept it as the boss."

Li Yi smiled, cupped his hands and said, "In that case, I won't be polite."

After talking about this matter, Li Yi and others chatted for a few words, agreed to see each other tomorrow, and then left.

After leaving the gate of the farm house, Sun Yaowen summoned a confidant and asked him to watch carefully before leaving with Li Yi.

Everyone knows that businessmen value profits over righteousness. Although it is not a fault, we should be careful and guard against it.

It was getting late, so Li Yi went back to the Sun Mansion to sleep. Early the next morning, he took Xiaoyu and Chen Hongyan to the Yahang shop and entered the hall on the attic. Everyone was waiting.

The people this time include Sun Cerium, Zheng Shan, Sun Yaowen, Liu He, Tian Fu, Ma Hewen, and Li Yi.

Now that Yaxing is in our hands, I would like to take this opportunity to let everyone get acquainted with it and discuss the next plan.

When Sun Yaowen and others saw Li Yi coming in with the two women, they were all stunned, but they did not dare to say anything more, so they had to ask their men to add two chairs, which was regarded as acknowledging their position.

Li Yi sat in the main seat and looked at his companions on both sides. Unknowingly, he had gathered a large force in Gaoyang. Although they were not strong in force, they were all good players who had been around for many years. They were good at making money and socializing.

Talent must be of great help to you.

"I think everyone must be surprised that I brought two women today. Now I will introduce them to you." Li Yi did not let everyone hide their concerns and said it directly.

He pointed at Chen Hongyan next to him and said: "This is the sister of the former Baiyangdian gangster Chen Tielong, named Hongyan. She now serves as the commander of the gangster camp in Anxin. She has five hundred soldiers adapted from the gangsters.

The brave men are all brave and not afraid of death, and they can be said to be my chivalrous ladies."

It was the first time that Chen Hongyan was introduced like this by Li Yi, and she couldn't help but feel a little shy. Fortunately, she had seen the world and saluted everyone with a smile.

Fortunately, Sun Cerium had known about it beforehand, but the others were shocked. Seeing the woman's beauty, they thought she was Li Yi's woman, but they didn't expect that she turned out to be a chivalrous woman who could control five hundred brave men.

Sun Yaowen was the first to stand up, cupping his hands and saying: "Chen Tielong robbed the rich and gave to the poor. He was a chivalrous man. Unfortunately, he was surrounded and suppressed by the government and died fighting hard. I didn't expect that his sister was also a chivalrous woman. Sun is disrespectful."

When someone mentioned her brother, Chen Hongyan felt slightly sad and stood up to return the favor.

After letting Chen Hongyan get acquainted with everyone, Li Yi pointed at Xiaoyu and said: "This is my cousin Xiaoyu. She knows a little about pen and ink. She often helps me with my affairs. Please take care of me in the future."

Xiaoyu is gentle and pleasant, and she is Li Yi's cousin. The degree of distance is very clear. Shopkeeper Tian smiled and took out an jade jade ring, stepped forward and said: "I have heard about Miss Xiaoyu for a long time. Lao Tian, ​​I have an jade jade ring here as a meeting gift.

, please accept it."

It was the first time Xiaoyu saw this situation. She was a little uneasy and glanced at Li Yi.

Li Yi nodded slightly before she accepted it.

"Now that everyone is familiar with each other, let's discuss the next situation." Li Yi sat down and looked at Ma Hewen beside him.

"Everyone..." Ma Hewen stood up and said, "Yesterday, Deng Yutang fell seriously ill and died suddenly in a hurry. We all need to discuss how to deal with this old master."

Hearing that Deng Yutang died suddenly, everyone present except Xiaoyu was indifferent. Since they are gathered here now, they will also work under Li Yi in the future, so the death of the old master is the best

result.

Besides, Deng Yutang was cold and cunning, and he was extremely profit-oriented, so not many people liked him.

"Young Master, this Deng Yutang was a friend of ours no matter what. Now he died suddenly. Please let me pay for his generous burial. This is the end of our friendship." Sun Yaowen was the most righteous and spoke.

Li Yi thought for a while and said: "That's what I meant. Deng Yutang is also a figure. The funeral will be handled by Brother Sun and Shopkeeper Tian. I will take this opportunity to tell the visitors about our current situation."
