The two talked for a long time in the study, and when Meng Zhongnan and Fourth Master Qiao came out again, it was already very late.

Standing in the hall, Meng Zhongnan smiled slightly, and a hundred flowers bloomed: "So, please trouble Mr. Qiao."

"That's what it should be." Fourth Master Qiao replied flatly.

"Fourth Lord," standing aside, the butler saw that the two of them had finished their conversation, so he came over and asked, "It's already late, Mr. Meng, why don't you use some light food at Qiao's mansion now, stay for one night, and come back tomorrow Walk?"

"No need," thanked the housekeeper politely, Meng Zhongnan tightly held Liu Yuejin who was about to slip away behind him with one hand, "I still have things to do, so I won't bother you any more."

"It's up to you." Looking at him, Fourth Master Qiao said nothing.

"Okay." Nodding, Meng Zhongnan turned around and walked out. Along the way, Liu Yuejin, who was dragged along, shouted, "Damn you bastard named Meng, I don't belong to your family, I don't know." Don't go! Don't go!!! Ahhh..."

Suddenly, Meng Zhongnan stopped, turned around and smiled at the butler, "Mr. Butler, I really have something to trouble you."

"Please speak."

"Can I have the next towel?"

towel? !

After a moment of silence, the butler beckoned and asked the servant behind him to pass one up.

"Thank you." Taking it with a smile, Meng Zhongnan stuffed it into Liu Yuejin's mouth without saying a word.Drag people to move on.

"..." Blinking, the butler turned his head, only to realize that - his master had already left for the restaurant.

After eating, Fourth Master Qiao only felt exhausted. He took a bath in the bathroom and went to rest early.It wasn't long before she fell asleep, and in the middle of the night, she was woken up from her sleep by the housekeeper.

Frowning, Fourth Master Qiao asked irritably, "What's the matter?" Everyone knew about his low blood pressure. If it wasn't important, the housekeeper wouldn't have come to call him.

"Fourth Master, something went wrong with the last batch of weapons we shipped to the front line of the war!" the butler said quickly.

"What?" Opening his eyes slightly, Fourth Master Qiao was rarely surprised, "What's going on?" As he spoke, he put on the bathrobe next to him.

As the two walked out the door, the housekeeper reported the situation to him.

"I see." Nodding, Fourth Master Qiao walked into the study, "Where is Li Yuan now?" (Li Yuan, Qiao's family is in charge of arms.)

"He is now organizing people to investigate outside."

"Call Li Yuan immediately and ask him to come back immediately. And Lin Shuang, let him come back too." With a cold voice, Fourth Master Qiao said sternly.

"Yes." The butler stepped aside and started dialing.

Standing by the window, through the curtain, you can see the dark sky outside. Although it is spring, the night is still darker and dewy, and there is a cool air.

Fourth Master Qiao took a deep breath.

Something went wrong with something sent to the army.

This is definitely not a small matter.

Fourth Master Qiao's mind is already running at high speed - the last batch of weapons shipped to the war was produced secretly from Chongqing, and then shipped to the Northeast region by sea.

Leaving aside the production issues, just the transportation, there are 230 checkpoints, large and small, not to mention the manpower used on the way—thousands of people at least!

Lower your eyes.

The current situation is turbulent and people's hearts are unpredictable. As long as there is a person who has a different heart, this matter will have a big change.

Now, with this problem—it was no longer the time to make excuses for him to punish defectors.How to make up for the mistakes and fill up the vacancy is the most important thing!

But such a large batch of goods, where to get it and fill it?Even if the goods can be obtained, how much time can Chairman Jiang give him to act?

Not to mention the extra money.

I closed my eyes.

Fourth Master Qiao only felt that the sky outside was as dark as his own heart.

But no matter what, the matter—has to be resolved.

"Fourth Master, Li Yuan is here." Pushing open the door, the butler brought him in.

"Fourth Master." Bowing respectfully, Li Yuan straightened up, his face turned pale.

"What do you think about this matter?" Sitting behind the desk, Fourth Master Qiao put one hand on the table.

"Sir!" Hearing Fourth Master Qiao's words, Li Yuan knelt on the ground with a "plop".Cold sweat poured down.Along the way, he had thought about it many times. Fourth Master Qiao would not spare his life if something like this happened. However, Li Yuan shook his lips, "Fourth Master, I... I, Li Yuan, committed the crime. I deserved to die after making such a big mistake. Just, I just beg fourth master, don't blame my wife and children, they, they don't know anything. "

Looking at the man opposite him indifferently, Fourth Master Qiao's eyes were as calm as two pools of stagnant water.

"Fourth, fourth master..."

"Li Yuan, stand up." There was a cold voice.

"..." Without daring to speak again, Li Yuan stood up tremblingly.

"Go down and take a picture of all the information of everyone involved in this arms transportation. Remember, I want all of them." Staring at the man, Fourth Master Qiao spit out these words, and then asked the butler: " Lin Shuang hasn't come yet?"

"Yes, Fourth Master. I'll go and remind you, little one."

"Ah."

Seeing Fourth Master Qiao nodding, the housekeeper went over to make another phone call. When he turned his head, he saw Li Yuan standing where he was, in a daze, not knowing what to write.

Walking over calmly, the housekeeper poked Li Yuan's waist fiercely with his fingertips, his eyes were sharp: Hey!What are you still doing here?Do you really want to be shot down by fourth master? !

After blinking, Li Yuan wiped the sweat off his brow before realizing it.Immediately, thinking of fourth master respectfully, he bowed ninety degrees and ran out in a panic.

Shaking his head secretly.The housekeeper knew that if Fourth Master Qiao didn't kill him now, it didn't mean he wouldn't kill him in the future.Li Yuan's father, Li Changqing, had served Mr. Qiao all his life, and the day before he was going to retire for the elderly, he blocked a bullet for Mr. Qiao and died.Fourth master Qiao let Li Yuan go this time, mostly because of Li Changqing. I just hope that Li Yuan can make up for his mistakes, and the days to come will not be too sad.

He was thinking while dialing the phone in his hand.

"Hello, is this the Lin family?"

"Yes, this is the Lin family." There was a delicate female voice, "Is it... Qiao Mansion?"

"Yes. I am the housekeeper of Qiao's mansion. May I ask if Lin Shuang has gone out? Fourth Master Qiao is waiting for him."

"Ah. So it's Mr. Housekeeper," the woman exclaimed, and immediately said, "I, I'm Lin Shuang's fiancée, I was going to call you, but I don't have your phone number. Lin Shuang, Lin Shuang has already After going out for more than ten minutes, just now, a younger brother beside him came over and said that Lin Shuang was robbed by a group of unknown people! Mr. Butler... what should I do..."

Frowning, the butler held the phone tightly, "Miss, don't worry. Is the messenger still there?"

"Here I am."

"Give him the phone, please. I want to ask him something."

"Oh, okay." There was a voice over there, and after five seconds, a man's voice came from the phone, "Hello, hello!"

"You are Mr. Lin's subordinate, right?"

"Yes, it is!"

"Let me ask you, how was Mr. Lin taken away by someone?"

"I, I don't know." The man said stumblingly, "It's a pair of men in military uniforms. They have rifles in their hands. When they came up, they stopped our car and took Mr. Lin away."

"What about you?" The housekeeper asked sharply, "Even Mr. Lin was taken away, how did you come back?"

"Me?" the man said aggrievedly, "I'm Mr. Lin's bodyguard. When Mr. Lin first came out, he found that he had forgotten one of his documents, so he asked me to go back and get it. When I came back, I secretly saw of."

"Okay, I see." The butler said lightly and hung up the phone.

"Fourth Master."

"Ok?"

"Lin Shuang... seems to have been taken away by Chairman Jiang's people." The housekeeper said, "The call from the Lin family said that the person who took Lin Shuang away used a rifle and was wearing a military uniform."

"Oh..." Looking up, Fourth Master Qiao thought for a while, "Then they should be using 1988 Mauser rifles. That's what we shipped over."

"Yes."

There was a silence.Fourth Master Qiao stood up, "Let's arrange a vehicle."

"Yes." Nodding, the housekeeper went out immediately - yes.No matter what the reason was, Lin Shuang was taken away. It was about the face of the Qiao family. Fourth master Qiao couldn't and would not stop meeting Chairman Jiang.
