Rebirth of reverse life

As one of the four ancient capitals and the capital of a country, it is the center of modern political power, economy, finance, management, culture, science and technology.The size and prosperity of Yanjing City are self-evident.

Prosperity represents a large flow of people, and people cannot do without food, clothing, housing and transportation. Naturally, the catering industry in this city is indispensable.According to statistics, there are nearly [-] famous hotels in Yanjing City.

So, having said that, as the leader of the catering industry in the capital and even the entire north, the hotel under the name of Fourth Master Qi is indispensable.

For example, the well-known five-star hotels in Beijing—Jinhua Hotel, Century Huangting Hotel, Yuquanshan Hotel, Ocean World City, etc. are all under his name.

In addition, when modern people advocate returning to nature and pursuing the manor-style life of ancient nobles, Fourth Master Qi created three super five-star collective manors in Beihai Manor, Zizhu Garden and Galeries Lafayette. Home, leisure, low-key A luxury hotel.

In the current Yanjing City, almost everyone knows that only foreigners will live in the magnificent star-rated hotels with tens of floors and hundreds of floors in high-rise buildings.If the locals themselves or entertain distinguished guests, they usually choose places like Beihai Manor, Purple Bamboo Garden or Galeries Lafayette Club.

However, due to the geographical environment, except for Beihai Manor, the addresses of Zizhu Garden and Lafayette Club are all on the fifth and fourth ring roads.

Naturally and due to the geographical environment, among the three super five-star manor hotels, Beihai Manor is the smallest.

But the smallness does not mean that the Beihai Manor is really small, but it is based on the Zizhu Garden, the Galeries Lafayette Club, and other similar hotels in Yanjing City.

As far as Beihai Manor is concerned, it is actually one of the best places no matter whether it is located in Yanjing City or other prosperous cities.Not to mention that its location is really in the center of Yanjing City, on the second and third ring roads.

If someone in Yanjing City can customize the location there when there is a lot of traffic, whether it is simply eating or lodging, it will be a matter of face.

Today, for the convenience of the family, and for the peace and quiet of this festival, Fourth Master Qi held the family banquet at Beihai Manor.

As the name suggests, Beihai Manor is a manor hotel close to Beihai. Its main body is a large courtyard with seven entrances and a large garden with an area of ​​[-] square meters.

In the past, this was the residence of princes and nobles, so no matter the scale of its building or the shape of the house, it is very majestic and noble.Fourth Master Qi didn't destroy it after he got it back then, but specially invited a master of ancient building restoration to restore it to its most prosperous time.

In fact, this garden still belongs to the state's public property, and the land deed is also in the hands of the government.

Only in the 90s, as the first batch of people who rushed to the sea, Qi Siye invested one billion yuan in one fell swoop with his boldness and foresight, and assigned 70.00% of its shares to his own name in the form of purchasing its shares 100 years.

There is no way, in Yanjing City, large courtyards like this are basically owned by the state.It is the courtyard house in Qi Xuan's hands, which he bought in the name of the Qi family when he returned to China for the first time as an overseas Chinese in the 80s.

After the 90s or 20 years, even if the courtyard houses are allowed to be bought and sold, ordinary people have no identity and status, and you can't keep it.

Qi Siye took over the manor at the end of the 80s and the beginning of the 90s when everyone was not optimistic about the courtyard house.Ten years later, when someone finally realized the importance of courtyard culture.It was only when he looked back that he discovered his vision.

But the benefits obtained by the Beihai Manor are not just provided to the country.Not to mention that Fourth Master Qi holds 100% of the shares in the manor for 70.00 years, and supplies one-third of the profits to the National Hotel every year.Even the background of Fourth Master Qi's family and the means by which Fourth Master Qi makes money are not something that anyone can follow.

But that's it, those who want to poach his corner come every year, overtly and covertly.

"...Thinking about it now, my grandpa still has a vision." Standing on the corridor, looking at the falling snow in the yard by the light in the corridor, Qi Zhenfei said when introducing Beihai Manor to Letian, "Back then my family Lao Tzu actually meant to buy it in one fell swoop. He was rich and powerful at the time, thinking that anyway, he had too much money to spend, so he should rest assured that the things are in his own hands. There are big and third grandpas behind him. But I Grandpa always disagreed when he said that the gun hits the head. He also said that even if others knew that the Qi family was not short of money, they couldn't do that.

…In the end, people from the government thought that the annual maintenance cost of this yard was too much, so they took the initiative to discuss with my father, saying that they could buy shares to develop the manor.

One billion was really a lot in those days. It just happened to be related to the investment of the grandfather and the third grandfather. The country put aside the policy limit and set a 100-year limit for my father.hey-hey!I heard my old man say that at the beginning, he was really unwilling, thinking that he made money by kicking others.Thinking about it now, I feel that fortunately my grandfather insisted, otherwise..."

"Pfft! Just brag, do you see pigs flying in the sky?" Qi Zhenfei's cousin Hua Junce stood behind him at some point, "Are you kidding Letian? Everyone doesn't know, just Mr. Qi Mo Mo can’t make such a judgment at all. Those who can make such a judgment are either your grandpa’s family on the American side, or the third grandpa’s family on Hong Kong Island. Or your old man.”

Second Master Qi was born as a martial artist, and almost everyone in the red family in the capital did not know about it. Even if he was so smart, it was impossible for him to make so many achievements at such a young age during the Anti-Japanese War.In the final analysis, in fact, if he had not had a female sister Zhuge by his side back then, it is still unknown whether Second Master Qi's personality would have survived to the end.

Of course, in private, many aristocratic families in the capital guessed that all this was actually arranged by the old man of the Qi family long ago.

"..." Qi Zhenfei looked back at his cousin with a depressed face, when did this soul come over?How to dismantle him?After a while, he gritted his teeth and said, "Cousin, are you my cousin?"

"Pfft! Does this have anything to do with being close or not?" Hua Junce glanced at his cousin contemptuously, and turned to walk away, "I just can't see it, you are just coaxing Letian over there. You can talk slowly, I Flash first."

Qi Zhenfei curled his lips, took out his phone and checked the time, it was already 07:30.

"Oh, it's so fast, no wonder I'm hungry."

"Let's go, let's go in." Letian glanced at the heavy snow outside the corridor.Turn around and walk into the house.Just now, Qi Xuan and his group of grown men from the Qi family, including Qi Chuyang, were called by Second Master Qi to hold a family meeting.The rest of the house were either women or children.

Well!In fact, there are not many people.When the adult man left, there were only Qi's second grandma, the Qi family's aunt, the Qi family's eldest daughter-in-law, the second daughter-in-law, Le Tian, ​​Qi Zhenfei and Qi Chuyang.

After Lotte sent out the brand-name fashion products that Qi Xuan brought to everyone, get it!A group of women, young and old, gathered together to chirp and admire.

Thus, Qi Zhenfei, Qi Yuhang and Le Tian were put aside.

But Qi Yuhang's little friends are not lonely at all. It just so happens that although this small yard is occupied by Qi Siye today, in order to make the best use of everything, Qi's relatives are arranged in both the east and west chambers.So when mom and dad were busy, Qi Yuhang turned around and went to a relative's house to find a little friend to play with.

In this way, it was inevitable that they would be dragged into the battlefield by the women, and Le Tian could only stand outside the door and listen to Qi Zhenfei's boastful talk while blowing the wind.

Among the gifts that Qi Xuan brought to everyone in Qi Erye's family abroad this time, women basically have a fur coat and a market handbag.

This woman, no matter how old or young she is, there is no one who does not love beauty.So, when Le Tian and Qi Zhenfei walked in from the outside, they saw Qi Zhenfei's mother and aunt walking in the hall, encouraged by the applause of the two old ladies.

"Not bad, not bad!" Second Grandma Qi smiled, nodding, and said to Aunt Qi, "Look at our little Jia, we usually wear military uniforms, and even our wedding photos are military uniforms. Although she looks heroic, but always I think it’s too tough, but this time it’s okay, how expensive it looks.”

"Hehe!" My aunt smiled and nodded, "It's softened. However, the clothes are well chosen, and Xiao Ba has a good eye."

"Yeah. It's just..." Second Grandma Qi frowned thinking of something. The clothes are good, but it is estimated that only his second daughter-in-law and auntie can wear them. She and her eldest daughter-in-law are wearing clothes. Not going out.She is old and can wear it at home, but her eldest daughter-in-law is in the army all year round.It is estimated that such good clothes can be pressed at the bottom of the box.

"Mom, don't worry." The second daughter-in-law, Hua Ling, is smart, and she can tell the old lady's estimation just by her expression, "Anyway, my sister-in-law rarely wears ordinary clothes for work, and these clothes are not out of date. We can celebrate the New Year." time to wear."

"Hehe, it's for Chinese New Year." Second Grandma Qi nodded.As a woman, if you have good clothes, but you cannot wear them for others to see, then it is really a 'night walk in brocade clothes'.However, in this position, their family can only do so.

"Mom, I'm hungry." Qi Zhenfei didn't care how many women were stinking over there, he rubbed his belly and shouted, "It's almost eight o'clock, dad, when will they end?"

"You are so hungry." Hua Ling reprimanded his son angrily, but still raised his hand to look at the watch on his hand, "It's still a while, don't worry. There are snacks in the room, you can eat some if you are hungry. "

"It's a bit late today." Grandma Qi looked at her grandson with a smile, and then at Le Tian, ​​"When Xiao Fei is growing up again, it's not a lie that most of the boys eat the poor old man. Lele is also hungry Right. How about we let them get some pastries first?"

"Mom, it's something else. It's okay to be hungry for a while. I guess we will have to eat at the table before eight o'clock. In case they eat too much later, and they can't eat any good food, this one in our family should Complaining again."

When Qi Zhenfei heard his mother's words, he pouted, wondering if this was his real mother.

While muttering, Qi Chuyang came out from the small room where the elders were having a meeting.But before he was happy, Qi Chuyang called Letian away.

(╰_╯)#!How can you do this?Is it possible to extend the time?

"It's all right now." Grandma Qi couldn't help laughing when she saw Letian leaving with Qi Chuyang, her second grandson grinning, "I guess we really have to wait this time. Haha! Xiaoling, how about You go and ask the waiter to bring some fruit first. The fruit before the meal is nothing."

"Well, the fruit is good." My aunt nodded accordingly.

When Qi Zhenfei heard that he wanted to eat fruit, he immediately became energetic, because he suddenly remembered that when Le Tian and the others came over, they seemed to have brought a lot of fruit, which they said was specially prepared after-meal fruit.

"If you want to eat fruit, you don't need to call the waiter. When I saw Uncle and Brother Tian came over, they brought fruit."

"Hey? That's a good relationship." Hua Ling's eyes lit up, "The things Xiao Le took are definitely good things, hurry up, where are they, take them out quickly."

The Qi family's family meeting has always been a routine meeting at every dinner.For the sake of the long-term development of the family, whether it is Uncle Qi, Second Master Qi, or Third Master Qi's family, almost all of them are like this.Usually, everyone is busy with their own business, and only when they have family dinners can they gather together.

When encountering large-scale festivals, the men of the Qi family will gather together to summarize and plan the past and future of the family.

So although today is not a reunion moment like New Year's Eve, but considering the many abnormal times encountered by the Qi family today, this memory that lasts for more than an hour is also indispensable.

What's more, the old man Qi and the two people in power in Uncle Qi's family were present in this memory.

Le Tian didn't seem to be involved in the internal affairs of the Qi family, so when he came, he told Qi Xuan that he would not participate in tonight's meeting.

Because in his opinion, Qi Zhenfei in the Qi family is not qualified to participate in the meeting, and if he is an outsider, he will overwhelm the host.

After getting along with the Qi family for so long, the Qi family treated him well. He didn't want to be criticized by everyone because he didn't know how to know himself.

I have never eaten pork and I have seen pigs running. For a big family like the Qi family, Letian honestly does not want to intersperse it, so that others will be dissatisfied in the past.

but now……

Well, since Qi Chuyang called him into the conference room, he had no choice.

but……

As soon as Le Tian entered the meeting room, the first thing he faced was Qi Xuan's smug smile, as well as the kind and kind looks of Old Master Qi and Second Master Qi.

Uh!

Le Tian's heart twitched violently.

He simply ignored Qi Xuan's performance.But why does the appearance of Old Master Qi and Second Master Qi make him feel so gross?

"Xiao Le, sit here." Before anyone else could speak, the smiling Fourth Master Qi Zhijin spoke first.And beckoned him to sit in the past.

There are twelve seats in the small conference room in front of you. If the head and the tail are the main seats, the north and south are just occupied by the old man Qi and the second master Qi.

If the left is the oldest, sitting on the left hand side of Old Master Qi is Qi Weichen, the eldest brother of the Qi family, followed by Qi Zhiyuan.Qi Chuyang sat directly under his father's hands.On the other side, that is, on the right hand side of Old Master Qi, Qi Xuan sat first, followed by Qi Zhijin.

However, the seat that Qi Zhijin beckoned Letian sit in was not his lower seat, but the vacant seat between him and Qi Xuan.

Well!Seeing that location, Letian was a little confused for a while.

What do these people mean?

Although he didn't have many opportunities to see the world, his grandfather also taught him about etiquette when he was a child.Even later he knew that he knew more about certain etiquette than some nouveau riche.

But now, Fourth Master Qi Zhijin asked him to sit next to Qi Xuan, so he would be sitting on top of him.

"Don't worry, Xiao Le, we don't have so many etiquettes here." Second Master Qi said with a chuckle, "Hurry up and sit down."

whispering sound!Letian despises Second Master Qi in his heart. You are 80 years old, and you are still disrespectful and cheating on a three-year-old child?He's not really a kid in his teens who doesn't understand anything.If there were not so many etiquettes, everyone would not sit like this now.

"It's okay." The old man Qi also saw Le Tian's hesitation, and said, "Come and sit, Xiao Le, you are qualified to sit in that seat. For us practitioners, the best is always the first. My old man relies on the old to sell the old, and sit But here, besides Xiaoba, you have the highest qualifications, sit down."

The old man Qi said so, and Le Tian naturally couldn't continue to dawdle, but when he walked over, his face was a little red.When he got to that position, Qi Xuan had already reached out his hand and moved Qi Zhijin away.

"I'm talking about Xiao Ba." Qi Zhijin said with a depressed face when he saw Qi Xuan's move, "Can't you slow down and give Fourth Brother a chance to curry favor with others?"

"It's up to you." Qi Xuan didn't give in.

Qi Zhijin was so depressed.It's a pity that when he looked up, no matter which way he turned his gaze, he met a look of waiting to watch the show.

Damn, is it necessary?I know you guys are jealous of my closeness!

well!Qi Zhijin took a sneak peek, and Le Tian, ​​whose face was a little red, recalled what the old man and Qi Xuan said before, if what they said was true, then this little guy in front of him is the most important thing to save the Qi family. Call it a peerless baby!

Seeing Le Tian sitting down, Mrs. Qi coughed twice to get everyone's attention.

"Since everyone is here, let's continue." The old master Qi started, "I just talked about the various incidents encountered by the Qi family this time, and I got it through Wei Chen, Xiao Ba and Lao Si. According to the information, our Qi family is now the target of public criticism..."

As expected, the meeting did not end until 08:30 in the evening, as Second Grandma Qi had expected. After the meeting, except for those who participated in the meeting, no one knew what the eight members of the Qi family discussed in the meeting room that night.

At one o'clock in the afternoon on January 2006, [-] in the new calendar, Le Tian and Qi Xuan, accompanied by Yuan Shui, Lu Ming, Wang Yang and Jing Hai, boarded the private luxury plane of Qi Sanye's family on Hong Kong Island and left Yanjing.

At the same time, the content of the Qi family's meeting on the night at the end of the new calendar year has become a thorn in the hearts of many people.

It's just that after that day, everyone in the Qi family didn't move, everything was so peaceful, the life, work, and study of the Qi family were as usual, step by step.

But for some people, the more the Qi family is like this, the more fear they feel.

However, there was the previous incident at Ford Mountain Villa; plus the fact that the old eighth member of the Qi family who was clearly killed in the bombing appeared at the airport by accident, and the series of high-profile actions after coming out of the airport.Some people now dare not continue to act rashly no matter whether it is from the strange art or the convenience of ordinary killers.

At least, until they are sure of the true strength of the eighth child of the Qi family, they will not continue to commit crimes against the wind.
