Could it be that she had some connection with this Peng Sanbian?
Zhang Qishan entered the New Moon Hotel with these doubts.
After they entered, many people were waiting for them in the hall. They bowed slightly and shouted,"Welcome, Third Master Peng!"
Such a huge formation.
The uneasiness in Zhang Qishan's heart grew even stronger. This Peng Sanbian must have some connection with this New Moon Hotel, but they didn't know it yet.
After bringing them into the room that the New Moon Hotel had prepared for them, they checked the room first before starting to talk.
"Lord Zeng, you really don't have to say that Beiping is a nice place. We don't have a place as exquisite as the New Moon Hotel.”Qi Tiezui sighed.
"The New Moon Hotel has a history of more than a hundred years since it opened. Its origins and background have always been a mystery. The change of dynasties has not affected it at all. This is not true. Instead, it has become more and more stable. This shows that this place is unfathomable.”Zhang Qishan instructed.
However, Qi Tiezui didn't think much of it." I think this is a high-class restaurant. It's specially for the rich to have fun. It's so mysterious. It's nothing more than wanting the gentry to throw some money."”
"Since we're already here, let's stay here in peace. Before the auction starts, we'll scout around and make plans.”
"Alright, Lord Zeng, where do you think the ancestor went? He was unfamiliar with this place. Where did he live? What did he eat?”Qi Tiezui started to worry about Zhang Ruochen. After all, he had left without taking a single cent. In Beiping, which place didn't need money?
"I don't know either. When the ancestor left, he didn't say anything. I think there shouldn't be any problems. After all, the ancestor is so powerful. We shouldn't have to worry about him. Even if we were worried, it wouldn't help even if our hearts were broken.”
"You're right. Our ancestor is such a capable person, so we shouldn't be worried about him. Since he chose to go to Beiping alone, he must have his reasons.”Qi Tiezui could only comfort himself in this way.
They had settled down here, but Star City was in danger.
The Zhang residence had been visited for a long time, but because Zhang Qishan was not at home, the butler could only reject all the guests.
At first, it was fine, but after many rejections, it naturally made outsiders suspicious.
Lu Jianxun and Ju De Kao were the first to notice that something was wrong.
"Sir, just now, an informant reported that Zhang Qishan has been locked up for two days. Everything in the residence is handled by the butler. The guests who came to visit have also been sent away.”
Lu Jianxun also felt that something was wrong after hearing the adjutant's words."Our Lord Zhang, who loves to show his face the most, actually closed his door and refused guests. There must be something fishy about this.”
"This subordinate also felt that there was something wrong with Zhang Qishan, so I investigated some of Zhang Qishan's itinerary. He once asked his adjutant to arrest a criminal.”
"Prisoner? What prisoner?"
"This person's name is Chen Pi, and he has some influence around the docks.”
When Lu Jianxun heard this, he did not think much of it. He thought that Chen Po was just a hooligan." He's just a hooligan. What's so important about him?”
"Although this Chen Pi is not presentable, his master is Er Yue Hong, the famous Red Horn Er Yue Hong in Star City. People call him Second Master Hong. He also has close contact with Zhang Qi Shan.”
"You actually captured your own people.”
The adjutant shook his head." The people under Zhang Qishan are very tight-lipped, so we can't get anything out of them. However, I heard from the brothers in the prison that Chen Pi's crimes are indeed not small. He has an affair with the Japanese and is a traitor.”
Lu Jianxun revealed a meaningful smile."This is getting more and more interesting. Get ready. I want to meet this Chenpi.”
"Yes, sir!"
After they were ready, they went to the prison and found Chenpi, who was locked up.
"You are Chen Pi?" Lu Jianxun asked.
However, Chen Pi did not even look at him. He was already sitting on the stool, motionless.
"The officer is asking you a question. Answer me, are you deaf?”The adjutant shouted at Chen Pi.
Lu Jianxun raised his hand to stop the adjutant from continuing.
"In Star City, everyone knows the name of Er Yue Hong. I'm afraid that someone who can become his disciple is not an ordinary person. Mr. Chen, if you don't look for a job in Pear Garden, where can you make a fortune?”
Chen Pi remained silent and watched Lu Jianxun's performance coldly. Lu Jianxun was not angry and continued,"I heard that there are many merchant ships from the north and south around the dock. Some people take advantage of the situation and hijack merchant ships to smuggle contraband. They work with the Japanese to get it done once and for all. I know that you have a high prestige in the dock area, but it is reasonable for you to do a small business to make a living. However, I don't understand how you offended Lord Zhang and became a prisoner. What I don't understand is that your master Er Yuehong has such a good relationship with Zhang Qishan. Why hasn't anyone come to redeem you yet?”
"Could it be that you have already been expelled from the sect and become an abandoned child?”
This sentence hit Chen Pi's weak spot. Chen Pi clenched his fists and pretended to want to punch Lu Jianxun.
