Chapter 117

Although Lu Hantao is a businessman, his funeral did not choose to be held in a funeral parlor like ordinary Hong Kong island community bosses and rich people. Instead, he was buried locally according to the Lu family's customs in the New Territories, and then sent a memorial tablet to enter the Lu Family University shrine.

Early in the morning, there was a 16-bar coffin for the funeral. There were nearly a hundred people in the procession, all of whom were members of the Lu family, who could be regarded as Lu Hantao's juniors.

In this kind of scene, no matter what you think in your heart, you will definitely cry on your face.

The whole team set off from the Lu family mansion at 04:30 in the morning, and arrived at the cemetery of the Lu clan at 06:30. Along the way, the crying was loud, the white paper was floating, and the sad music, gongs, drums and suona sounded, even strangers People at the scene will probably be infected by the sad atmosphere, and can't help but shed tears.

Lu Hantao is an old-school person at heart. His tomb has actually been built a long time ago. It is next to the tomb of his deceased wife. It covers an area of ​​about [-] to [-] square feet. It has a circular cement pavement, pines and cypresses on both sides, and an open mound in the middle.

The golden nanmu coffin slowly fell into the tomb. Lu Yongyu and the four Lu family brothers beside him cried heart-rendingly, beat their chests and stamped their feet, especially Lu Yongfu, just rolled on the ground, stained with tears and snot mixed with dust, It's full of roles, and it's even more sad than the death of my father.

When the coffin was completely placed and the tomb needed to be sealed, Lu Jiugong appeared again. According to the procedure, he persuaded family members and friends to mourn and not to cry badly.

Make offerings to the tomb and light incense.

So far, the burial ceremony is over.

Compared with the sad atmosphere of the burial ceremony, sending the tablet into the ancestral hall next is a different scene.

Everyone took off their filial piety and linen gowns, only the close relatives came up with cuffs to show filial piety, and played gongs and drums, looking very festive.

This is also a local tradition.

Returning to the ancestral hall means being with the ancestors, which is a happy event;
The greater a person's lifetime achievements and the higher his prestige, the more honorable he is for his ancestors, and the more lively it must be when he returns to the ancestral hall.

The number of people playing drums and playing drums was almost twice as large as during the funeral, and more people came to watch the fun. Next, there would be flowing water mats outside the ancestral hall for three days and three nights.

Lin Jiajun and Feibo were also among the crowd, and followed Luo Ye to watch the fun. It was a funeral, and they wanted to see if they could get over it.

There are no ghosts. Lin Jiajun was a little surprised that Lu Hantao's way of death did not accumulate resentment and become a devil.

However, among the people who came to 'congratulate', apart from the squires from the New Territories, they saw some 'big shots' and people from the rivers and lakes.

A few local councilors from the New Territories, Hua Jun, the leader of the Hung Lok Club.

"Holy shit, Hua Jun has been very powerful in the past two years. Hong Le Club, a sunset club, was brought back to life by him. Last time he dared to fight with Hong Xing. What's even more exaggerated is that Jiang Tiansheng finally chose peace talks. Although Hong Le apologized He spent some money to set up a table of 81 and drinks, but he earned a lot of face. Now everyone in the world is saying that if Hong Le has three talents like Hua Jun, he will definitely become one of the top four in the future. How did he come? " Fei Bo muttered.

"One Hua Jun is powerful enough, three Hua Jun, they will fight first."

Lin Jiajun rushed to a large pile of elegiac banners with Lu Hantao's title written on them at the entrance of the ancestral hall in the distance, nunuzui: "Hong Le was first in the New Territories. Last time it was Lu Yongfu who caused trouble. If Lu Hantao did something, it would probably be Hong Le's." people."

Lu Hantao's achievements in this life are so many that they can't be written on more than a dozen banners. Among them, the two most important titles are the vice chairman of the New Territories Squires Committee and the head of the Lu clan.

Although the New Territories is large enough, most of it is in the countryside. It has stayed in the clan management model for a long time. Several big surnames each elect their own clan leaders to manage the affairs of their respective clans. These clan leaders also form the Squire Committee, which becomes the actual control of the New Territories. Speakers and speakers are more authoritative than the government.

Members elected in the New Territories are often the puppets of the gentry committees, at least the spokespersons, and some are simply the sons of rich patriarchs;

"Ah Jun, speaking of it, do you know who is the chairman of the New Territories Squires Committee? Why have I never heard of it?" Fei Bo asked worriedly: "Don't knock one down, and another one will be more ruthless." If you come out to support Lu Guo, it will be troublesome."

Before Lin Jiajun was about to move to Lu country, he investigated all the information clearly.
"The last chairman was Hua Jun's old man. But he died inexplicably afterwards. Since then, the New Territories Squires Committee has no permanent chairman. There are more than [-] members, and one-third of them are vice-chairmen. , the rotating president, in fact, can't move other people, it's more like a meeting convener, don't worry, here in the New Territories, it's still a matter of surnames. Something happened to the Lu family, it's good if other surnames don't come to take advantage of the fire , it is impossible to help."

Fei Bo thought for a while, then sighed and said, "A plate of scattered sand is invincible in internal fighting."

Lin Jiajun looked at his watch: "Leaving Boge, if you stay, you will have dinner. The scene of this meal may be a bit tragic. I don't want to stay and eat."

……

……

Running water table, the top table.

Lu Yongyu was sitting first on the left, while Lu Jiugong was sitting in the main seat.

The first position on the right is Lu Jinqiang.

In the other positions, there are several key members of the Lu family, and several uncles who are currently the oldest in the Lu family.

"Ayu, don't worry, your old man is gone, but our old bones are still there. We must not let Lu Guo go wrong, let alone watch you suffer and suffer!"

Lu Jiugong said loudly: "In this way, you can rest assured to leave the business of Lu Guo Building Materials to me in the future! I will definitely do a great job!"

Lu Yongyu glanced at him and nodded expressionlessly: "Thank you, Uncle Nine. I will ask the engineering department when I get back and give you an answer."

"Ayu, I have two nephews who just came back from college. One majors in finance and accounting and the other majors in architecture. They can help you out. Let me arrange for you to join Lu Guo's headquarters. How about that?" said another uncle.

Lu Yongyu's face darkened slightly, but he still said patiently, "I'll ask the personnel department if there is any vacancy, and try to arrange it."

After Lu Hantao died, within just a few days, Lu Yongyu felt pressure from all directions.

After Lu Hantao's death, many problems that were not even noticeable before broke out one after another, which caught her off guard.

It wasn't until this moment that she realized Lu Hantao's difficulties, and finally understood why Lu Hantao was so slow in handing over power and giving her a stage to display her talent.

Maybe I am not as smart and capable as I think I am, and I really can’t be the protagonist on the stage.

"Ayu..."

"Brother Qiang, what are you going to do again?"

Finally, Lu Yongyu couldn't bear it any longer, and asked sarcastically, "Are you going to arrange for relatives at home, or are you going to grab the project and ask for shares?"

Lu Jiugong and the uncle who spoke just now had skins as thick as a city wall. It seemed that they could not hear such obvious accusations.

Lu Jinqiang smiled and said, "Ayu, you have misunderstood us. I am not here to ask for shares, but to return them."

His voice is not too loud, and his tone is very gentle,

But the content of the words was so shocking that the whole table fell silent all of a sudden, and even the people who heard it at the two tables on both sides turned their heads and looked at this table with surprised faces.

"Brother Qiang, what did you say?"

Hearing this 'good news', instead of feeling happy, Lu Yongyu instantly sensed a strong uneasiness and danger approaching!

Lu Jinqiang and his brothers have done so many things for the shares, and they almost turned against each other. Now that Laodou has passed away, no one can suppress him, and he actually gave up the shares?

What is he going to do? !

"Brother Quan, Ah Fu, and Ah Po, come here."

Lu Jinqiang waved his hand and called the three brothers to stand behind him. He straightened his suits and said, "Ayu, our brothers were all picked up by Uncle Tao. We are today thanks to Uncle Tao! Uncle Tao promised to give us A few 5% shares, now that he passed away, Lu Guo is in the most difficult time, we decided to return the shares to Lu Guo, it is our last effort for him."

Lu Yongyu got up slowly and stared at Lu Jinqiang: "Brother Qiang, what is the last heart?"

"Damn it, Ayu, you have studied in college, but you can't understand this? Uncle Tao is dead, and we feel that he died inexplicably, and we feel unfair for him! As for you, you have no ability, and you are not worthy of speaking in Lu Guohua That's why we brothers don't want to continue doing what we did in Lu!" Lu Yongfu said very loudly.

"Ah Fu shut up!" Lu Jinqiang stopped Lu Yongfu and continued to speak down. He took out a few envelopes from his arms: "Ah Yu, we brothers and sisters are together, so we get together and break up. Remember to come to me if you have any difficulties in the future."

After speaking, gently put the envelope in front of Lu Yongyu,
On the cover of the envelope, there were two large characters: Resignation.

"Hey, Ah Qiang, you guys resigned, what are you going to do in the future?" Lu Jiugong, who knew the inside story, asked loudly while looking at the backs of Lu Jinqiang and the others.

Lu Jinqiang waved his hands without looking back, and said loudly: "The New Territories must be developed in the future, and the benefits of the people of the New Territories cannot be taken away by outsiders. From now on, we brothers will start our own company, do it ourselves, and eat it ourselves!"

"Hey, sounds good!"

Lu Jiugong deliberately pretended to think for a while, and smiled at Lu Yongyu: "Ah Yu, since you think we are taking advantage of you by staying in Lu Country, and you think us old men are annoying, then forget it, I will talk to Ah Qiang. "

After speaking, he got up and left.

As soon as he left like this, many people stood up among the dozens of tables present, and they also followed Lu Jinqiang and others to leave.

Lu Yongyu's body swayed slightly, his legs and feet became weak, and he almost fell. He quickly held on to the table and managed to stand.

At this moment, a police car stopped outside the Lu Family Ancestral Hall, and several local New Territories police officers got out of the car. An inspector led by him and two plainclothes men came straight to Lu Yongyu.

"Ms. Lu Yongyu, regarding the death of Mr. Lu Hantao, we would like to ask you to go back and assist in the investigation."

"Hey, what are you doing? Today, my father is going to have a funeral, and you are going to arrest his daughter?" A congressman who didn't know the truth frowned.

The supervisor said indifferently: "Now we have some evidence in hand, Mr. Lu Hantao's death may be related to Ms. Lu Yongyu."

The audience fell silent in an instant, angry, puzzled, surprised, all kinds of eyes shot at Lu Yongyu from all directions.

Lu Yongyu's face was pale, and he forced a smile: "Mr. Police, I..."

Before he could finish speaking, his pale face suddenly turned red again, and turned pale gold again, his thin body shook, and he fell backwards.

Just when she was about to hit the ground, a pair of strong arms supported her from behind.

Hong Le sat in the hall, Hua Jun frowned, supported Lu Yongyu who had his eyes closed tightly with one hand, and touched her breath with the other.

"Ah Sir, killing people is just a nod. No one knows what happened now. Ms. Lu Yongyu is not in good health. Now she has undergone a sudden change and has passed out. Even if there is an investigation, shouldn't she be sent to the hospital first?" ?”
