On this day, all the forces in Changsha City, large and small, received official messages, looking for the robbers who set fire to kill people.

Ye Bai asked Shunzi to pretend to cooperate, and the brothers from the restaurant and the dock started to move, and the noise was quite big.

Ten days later, no clues could be found and the matter was dropped. The main reason was that Adjutant Yang was transferred away and no one knew where he went.

Without Adjutant Yang's obstruction, construction of a factory outside Changsha began.

In the past few days, the reputation of Black Back Lao Liu has gradually become louder in Changsha, and he has few enemies with his sharp knife skills.

But after all, he used to make a living by licking the edges of knives. He would often cut his hands without leaving any trace, and there would be blood. Ye Bai got better after scolding him several times.

Black-backed Sixth is also a person with a bad temper. He has many problems that most people would not pay attention to, but he obeys the advice of Mr. Ye who can convince him and does not dare to slack off.

A month later, the weather in Changsha gradually became colder.

On this day, heavy snow fell from the sky. Ye Bai, Qi Xiaohei, Shunzi and others were warming up by the fire in the pavilion in the middle of the lake.

It's freezing cold, and everything is white.

It’s been so many years since Changsha has seen such heavy snow. The snowflakes in front of me are falling from the sky like cotton wool. If it is falling like this, the snow will probably reach the knees tomorrow.

Now that the factory construction and stall matters are on track, it is rare for a few people to relax here.

Ye Bai took a sip of hot tea, peeled and ate a few bites of cooked hot peanuts, and picked up a letter on the corner.

This letter was sent by Zhang Qishan, saying that he was inviting Mr. Ye to go to Zhang Mansion tomorrow to discuss important matters.

Ye Bai asked Shunzi to inquire about it, and many forces in Changsha received this letter.

He didn't know what a big event it was to invite so many people over.

Could it be that they want to integrate Yingkou in Changsha and establish nine gates?

But Zhang Qishan has not yet become a powerful force, so he is too anxious.

Ye Bai doesn't quite understand what Zhang Qishan's move means, but he also knows that there will be fun in the meeting tomorrow.

On the second day, Ye Bai took Shunzi and several of his brothers to Zhang Mansion.

Zhang Mansion was originally the old residence of a down-and-out scholar. After Zhang Qishan became independent, he took over Zhang Mansion and made it his base in Changsha.

This was Ye Bai's first time coming to the Zhang Mansion. Although the courtyard of this room was not small, the decoration and layout were far inferior to the Bai family. After one glance, Ye Bai lost interest.

After being led all the way to the lobby by the butler, Ye Bai realized that the two rows of more than a dozen pairs of chairs in the lobby were almost full.

Oh, there are quite a few of them including Li Yuerhong and others, and Wu Guangyuan and Wu Xiaowu also occupy a position.

We haven’t seen each other for two months, and Wu Xiaoxiao’s height has grown again. He really looks different every day.

"Third Master!"

"Master Ye!"

Ye Bai nodded and smiled, and after greeting these people, he found a seat next to Er Erhong.

It was snowing heavily outside, and there was only a stove in the hall. The scalding tea quickly turned cold, so the servants had to change the tea again and again.

After not seeing Zhang Qishan for a long time, some people started to get anxious.

"This is how Qishan treats guests. We have been here for so long and no one has been seen. Also, what important matters are we discussing? Let us drink herbal tea here and get cold. We are just acting as minor officials. We really think we are from Changsha.

Master?"

The speaker's surname is Gu. He is in his forties or fifties. He has a large gold front tooth. He has a hundred brothers who manage a brothel and two gambling houses. He is called Gu Jinya. He has a small influence in Changsha and often participates in gambling.

I didn’t expect to be invited to do some back-fighting activities this time.

"Be more patient. You've been waiting for so long and you still need this little effort." Er Erhong held the tea cup and spoke slowly.

When Er Erhong opened her mouth, Gu Jinya couldn't say anything else.

He also picked up the tea and drank it in a decent manner, but the tea had just been changed not long ago, and the tea was boiling hot, and he spit it out as soon as it reached his mouth.

"Poof!"

This scene made many people laugh. Gu Jinya was ashamed and stood up with a red face. He didn't know whether it was because he was hot or angry.

Glancing around, I saw Wu Xiaoxiao behind Wu Guangyuan laughing so hard that he couldn't close his mouth. He couldn't help but cursed: "You little bitch, if you fucking laugh again, grandpa will beat you to death."

Wu Xiaowu's smile froze and he refused to give up: "As expected, he runs a brothel. His mouth smells as bad as my rhubarb. I can laugh if I want. It's none of your business."

"The one who rides on the horse." Gu Jinya lost face in front of everyone, and immediately couldn't sit still. He pulled out the whip from his waist and was about to attack.

A group of people around him grabbed him and tried to break up the fight: "Lao Gu, why are you arguing with this little guy? Let's calm down..."

The hall immediately became noisy. A group of people broke up the fight, and a group of people sat and watched the show. Ye Bai was the one who smiled while watching the show.

"Okay, Lao Gu, for my sake, let's forget about this."

Ye Bai turned around and saw that the person speaking was Huo Sanniang.

The Huo family can be regarded as an old family with deep roots in Changsha, and the heads of each generation are women.

After the Bai family broke up, the Huo family also seized the opportunity and took over a lot of territory around Changsha. It seems that they have the idea of ​​​​surrounding the city from the countryside, and their power is not small now.

Ye Bai, who is familiar with the plot, also knows that Huo Sanniang is not a simple character, and has always coveted the position of the head of the Nine Sects.

"Since Sanniang has spoken, I will spare your life today." Gu Jinya put away the whip bitterly, but he also knew that he was embarrassed here, so he threw down the tea, stood up and left.

When he walked to the door, he turned around and spit on the ground: "Fuck Zhang Qishan!"

The sound is not quiet, and everyone in the hall can hear it.

The snow outside was still heavy, but after a while, dogs barking and Gu Jinya's cries were heard in the distance.

"Damn it, whose dog bit me to death, someone, come here!!"

The housekeeper and servants of the Zhang family seemed not to hear the sound, and poured tea and water for everyone, remaining unmoved.

Few people in the hall moved, but hearing the scream was really miserable. Huo Sanniang finally couldn't help it, and walked out of the hall with a frown on her face. When she came back, she led a big yellow dog with a mouth full of snow.

and blood.

"Wu Guangyuan, look at the good things your dog has done."

Wu Guangyuan also looked surprised, which was enough for the scene.

"I tied up this dog. Why did it slip out in the cold weather? The leash must have been loose. Hey, I heard Lao Gu scream so miserably. I thought whose dog could bite this unscrupulous thing. I didn't expect it.

Still my dog."

Wu Guangyuan quickly stepped forward to take the rhubarb and handed it to Wu Xiaowu.

"Go and wash the blood off the rhubarb's mouth. This thing is stained with bad luck."

"Hey, okay." Wu Xiaoxiao took the dog leash with a smile.

Watching the father and son perform a double act, Huo Sanniang sneered twice and had no choice but to return to her seat.
