Hear this.
Qin Jiang said with a hint of sarcasm, "Is that so?"
Chief Qin: "Yes! That's exactly it..."
Qin Jiang: "Didn't someone just say they wouldn't send my grandfather out? They didn't seem to welcome me."
Leader Ma once again glared at Clan Chief Qin with hostility.
Clan Chief Qin: "Ah... I didn't say that... I meant your grandfather doesn't want to come out, he's sentimental! Yes, sentimental!"
Qin Wen: "We all share the same ancestor! The Qin family motto is: mutual help and assistance, and eternal unity! There might have been some misunderstandings just now, but we Qin family members are connected by blood, and there's no misunderstanding that can't be resolved... I promise I won't take sides." He solemnly said to Qin Jiang: "I wasn't in Qin Family Village before; I just returned today! I didn't even know that Qin Family Village produced such a renowned and famous entrepreneur as Chairman Qin Jiang."
"This is truly an honor for the entire Qin Family Village! The Qin Family Village warmly welcomes Chairman Qin's arrival."
"You will be given the highest level of hospitality and respect!"
Qin Wen looked at Qin Jiang with utmost sincerity.
after all:
At this moment, Qin Jiang's attitude was crucial. If things weren't brought to light, there was still room for maneuver. But once they were exposed and weighed, things would become extremely difficult to resolve. Therefore, Qin Wen hurriedly expressed his stance to Qin Jiang: explaining that they shared the same ancestor and there was no need to make things so tense. He also conveyed that he was unaware of the details, and if there were any hidden secrets, he would definitely provide an explanation. Furthermore, he guaranteed that Qin Family Village would provide Qin Jiang's lineage with the highest level of treatment in the future.
even:
He was afraid Qin Jiang wouldn't understand, so he didn't beat around the bush and just said it directly.
Qin Jiang: "Really? I thought we weren't welcome."
Qin Wen: "Welcome, welcome!"
Chief Qin: "How could we not welcome you?"
.....
Qin Jiang stopped dwelling on it.
In response to this.
Qin Wen, the clan chief, and others breathed a sigh of relief. Clan chief Qin, in particular, was genuinely unsure of himself. He knew what he had done and couldn't bring himself to say it openly, especially in front of Leader Ma, when Leader Ma clearly valued Qin Jiang highly. This was bound to cause trouble.
call...
Qin Wen secretly breathed a sigh of relief: "That was too dangerous...it almost turned into a major disaster." Compared to the Qin clan chief, who only thought that he would offend Leader Ma, he was more aware of the seriousness of the situation: it was not a matter of offending Leader Ma at all. The other party came to Shancheng under the pretext of inspecting investments. Now, if the situation of Qin Family Village displeased such an inspecting investor, it would be a major event. If not handled properly, it would be a bolt from the blue for the family, ending in disaster.
The situation between the two sides calmed down.
Leader Ma did not pursue the matter further; sometimes, it's best to downplay or resolve such issues.
Continuing the investigation will benefit no one!
therefore.
Qin Jiang and Leader Ma were having a friendly conversation there, during which Qin Wen occasionally chimed in with a few words.
They weren't in a hurry. The entire Qin Family Village was only so big, and it would only take a few minutes no matter where Grandpa Qin was.
opposite.
The Qin family members were even more stunned as they watched the three chatting and laughing. They were especially incredulous when they saw their proud backer, Qin Wen, only able to occasionally chime in during Qin Jiang's conversation with Leader Ma. Although they had just heard that Qin Jiang was very powerful in Songjiang, practically all-powerful, this was a mountain city, Qin Family Village. How could a businessman from out of town be so powerful?
Isn't the traditional social hierarchy of scholars, farmers, artisans, and merchants?
Is it ranked lowest?
Now...
What's going on? Why can't they understand?
...
Time passed...
Five minutes...
Ten minutes...
Fifteen minutes....
.....
The group had already talked until their throats were dry and there was nothing left to say. Qin Jiang's expression grew increasingly cold, and Leader Ma's face also turned grim. Qin Wen anxiously whispered to the Qin clan chief:
"Dad! What's going on? Why hasn't anyone arrived yet..."
Clan Chief Qin: "I...I don't know either...I've already sent people...Damn it...This is bad..." He suddenly remembered that when he had people watching over Qin Dali, he was afraid that the other members of the clan would let him go, so he specifically ordered that Qin Dali could not be released unless he and several clan elders went together.
Could it be...?
Qin Wen: "What's broken..."
Clan Chief Qin: "I... could you wait a while... his grandfather can't bring him right now... I have to go myself."
Qin Wen: "What exactly happened? I don't care what happened, just bring them here right now..."
Chief Qin: "Alright..."
Without hesitation, he turned to leave, while simultaneously calling out in a low voice to the other elders to come along.
At that very moment.
A young man behind the group from Qin Family Village shouted, "Brother Jiang! I found Grandpa Qin... Something's happened..."
...
brush!
All eyes turned to them.
Then I saw it.
An unremarkable young man, who would be easily overlooked in a crowd, was waving anxiously in this direction. Qin Jiang naturally wouldn't let the Qin family village bring the man out on their own, so in case of any other situation, he secretly sent someone to infiltrate. Although the people in the Qin family village were all relatives and basically knew each other, the sounding of the drum to gather people caused chaos in the Qin family village. In addition, because he was so inconspicuous, no one recognized him and he discovered Qin's grandfather's situation.
Therefore, I came to report immediately...
.....
broken...
Qin Wen's expression changed drastically upon hearing the young man's shout:
Grandpa Qin had an accident...
Knowing the situation, Qin Wentai was well aware of what was going to happen, and the outcome was worse than he had anticipated. He looked at the Qin clan leader as if he were about to breathe fire.
Chief Qin: ∑(O_O;)
How could this have happened?
You shouldn't starve to death even if you go hungry for a day...
Qin Dali looked to be in good physical condition, could it be that he's really getting old... he couldn't even last a day.
...
Compared to Qin Wen's anger and panic, the other members of the Qin family were simply bewildered, confused, and suspicious.
They were completely unaware of the current situation, only shocked that Qin Jiang had gained the attention of the Ma family leader and could speak with him on equal terms; shocked that their patron, Qin Wen, had no face in front of Qin Jiang; shocked that this suddenly appearing young man was who he was; and shocked that their clan patriarch and Qin Wen seemed so anxious...
...
now.
Qin Jiang, who was talking with Leader Ma, suddenly turned cold upon hearing the shout. He looked at Leader Ma and said, "Leader! I have some urgent personal matters to attend to, I must take my leave!"
Hear this.
Leader Ma immediately replied, "What are you saying! You've come to Shancheng for an inspection, so your situation reflects Shancheng's situation. How about this... I'll go with you to see for myself..."
He then followed Qin Jiang away...
Qin Jiang: "Okay!"
Immediately, Qin Jiang and Ma led two groups of people forward quickly.
Ahead.
The Qin family members remained standing there, dumbfounded, blocking their way.
See here.
Qin Jiang coldly uttered four words:
"Clear the way, enter the village!"
