Liu Qiang looked at Qian Guang with a smile and said, "Qian Guang, if it weren't for giving Seventh Master face, you would have been dead by now."
Qian Guang nodded and said, "Thank you for going easy on me."
"Just know it, sigh, you need to be perceptive in life. You offended me, but I can still forgive you. If you stand up and bow to apologize, I might consider forgiving you. Sigh, if you kneel and bow your head to me, I might just forgive you right away, right?" Liu Qiang said arrogantly.
Qian Laowu stood up, pointing at Liu Qiang, and said, "What the hell are you? You bastard, come out and fight me one-on-one."
Liu Qiang disdainfully cursed, "Damn, fat pig, what era are we in? Still fighting one-on-one?"I have more people, I'll kill you, and make preserved sausages...
Qian Laowu was so angry that his nose was crooked. Qian Guang waved his hand, telling Qian Laowu to sit down. He said, "Right or wrong, Seventh Master decides."
"That's right, I have the utmost respect for Master Qi. I've been with him since I was a child. Back then, the caravan was very poor, and we couldn't even afford to eat. Thousands of us were huddled on the Dai people's land, and it was all thanks to Master Qi risking everything to open restaurants and clubs to feed us that we have what we have today. Master Qi, you say it, I'll definitely listen to you," Liu Qiang said in a strange tone.
Seventh Master glared at Liu Qiang and said, "Liu Qiang, you are the most at fault in this matter..."
"Seventh Master, I don't like what you're saying. Why am I wrong?"He smashed my shop first, I retaliated later. Even though you're Seventh Master, you can't be so biased, can you?"To win over the crowd." Liu Qiang said defiantly.
"Exactly, Seventh Master, this matter is because Qian Guang was wrong first," Shouhou said, also displeased.
Seventh Master said, "Liu Qiang, you should be well aware of the money robbery you did in Myanmar, right?"Please provide the text you would like me to translate.
"Ah, Seventh Master, if you say that, I feel even more wronged. I robbed him? Is there any evidence?" Liu Qiang said, looking even more aggrieved.
"Seventh Master, everything requires evidence. Without evidence, it's just nonsense. As an elder, saying this makes the younger generation very sad," Chen Xi said.
Seventh Master glared at the few of them, chuckled, and said, "Oh, so this matter is Qian Guang's fault?"Should I make him apologize to Liu Qiang and compensate for the losses?
"Seventh Master, since you've said so, let's settle it this way. Qian Guang, I'm magnanimous and generous, giving face to Seventh Master. Apologize to me, kneeling is off the table, just bow to me," Liu Qiang said arrogantly.
This sentence made everyone at our table stand up, and Qian Guang also stood up, looking grim. However, Liu Qiang and the others weren't scared; instead, they looked at Qian Guang with arrogant expressions. Qian Guang poured a glass of wine and said, "Liu Qiang, sorry about this."
Liu Qiang heard this and burst into loud laughter, very arrogantly. However, Qian Guang directly splashed the drink onto his face, soaking him completely. Liu Qiang quickly stood up, very angrily, and cursed, "Are you looking for death? Beat him up..."
With a roar from Liu Qiang, a dozen people behind him stood up, and so did Qian Lao Wu. The dozen or so people at our table weren't pushovers either, but when Qi Ye slammed his hand on the table, I saw a dense crowd of people coming down from upstairs, all dressed in black, looking extremely spirited.
Everyone was stunned and didn't dare to move. I watched as this group surrounded us. Seventh Master said, "Liu Qiang, are you disrespecting me?"
Liu Qiang looked at so many people and then backed down, saying, "I'm giving you face, but Qian Guang isn't giving you face. He was the one who started it first, and you saw it too."
"Shut up, I don't care who's right or wrong today. I'm telling both of you to stop and shake hands. I've endured in the north for over twenty years just to ensure everyone lives well. If you want to fight, you're not giving me face. If you want to fight, then fight me," Elder Qi said angrily.
Liu Qiang curled his lips and said, "Seventh Master, you have over a thousand subordinates, who would dare to fight you?"
Seventh Master glared at him, and he immediately reached out, saying, "Qian Guang, give Seventh Master some face. He's old, don't make him angry to death."
Everyone was very angry, but Seventh Master didn't let them move. Qian Guang reached out, tightly grasping Liu Qiang's hand, and said, "You mustn't blame me."
"Not at all, I'm very generous," Liu Qiang said with a cold laugh, retracting his hand.
Seventh Master said, "Alright, whoever is fighting, you're not giving me face. Don't blame me for being rude. Everyone disperse, sit down and eat."
Qian Guang sat down, and I watched as the group of men in black quickly withdrew. It turned out that Master Qi was already prepared; he didn't want these people to fight. It seems he was really angry this time.
A few people sat down and started serving the dishes. Liu Qiang stood up and said, "Seventh Master isn't eating anymore. I have something to do. I'll treat you another day."
After he finished speaking, he stood up and kicked over the table where his brothers were sitting. Everyone looked dumbfounded. Liu Qiang shouted, "Damn it, all you do is eat. Your boss is about to be chopped up and made into dumplings. Eat? Eat my foot, let's go..."
After he finished scolding, he left with a dozen people behind him. Seventh Master was furious, and I was very angry too; he was really arrogant.
"Dad, don't be angry, everything has been resolved," Ma Qing said, as she spoke, she was calming Qi Ye's chest.
"Yeah, Seventh Master, everything has been resolved, no need to be angry," Chen Xi said.
Seventh Master nodded and said, "Don't blame me for always bringing up the past. Back then, you were all part of the caravan. The caravan was suppressed by others and hid in the mountains, fighting for territory with the local Dai people, getting beaten badly. At that time, if I had taken my wealth and left, I would have had no regrets. But I chose to stay, spending all my wealth to support everyone. I vowed to make sure my caravan brothers lived good lives. Now that
Chen Xi nodded at Shouhou, but his eyes were very disdainful. Watching from the side, I felt that Seventh Master was now more willing than able. The more he brought up his past achievements, the more it would make the people around him less convinced. This is human nature.
"Seventh Master, I have something to attend to. I'll treat you next time..." Chen Xi said. After he finished speaking, he left with the Thin Monkey. Soon, more than half of the people in the restaurant were gone, leaving it empty and desolate, with the food on the table untouched.
"Damn it, Dad, they're not giving you any respect..." Ma Lan said angrily.
Seventh Master said, "Face is earned by oneself."
I looked at Seventh Master. Although he said that, his face looked very grim. I knew he was furious, and that fire would inevitably come out...
The banquet was half-empty, making it feel very sparse. Seventh Master said, "Start eating..."
We waved goodbye to Qian Guangcao, and a few people immediately stood up to toast to Seventh Master. Only then did Seventh Master smile and drink with everyone.
At that moment, I also walked over with a glass in hand and said, "Seventh Master, this is for you."
Seventh Master nodded, clinked glasses with me, and after I finished drinking and was about to leave, Seventh Master said, "Just sit here."
I was very happy to hear that, so I nodded and sat down. I looked at Ma Qing; she was sitting next to Qi Ye, and beside her was Qian Guang. To be honest, I felt a bit envious of Brother Guang. With such a beautiful woman, of course, I also wanted to sit next to him.
Seventh Master said, "Qian Guang, I know this matter was Liu Qiang's fault. You've been wronged."
Qian Guang said, "Seventh Master, evil people will get their comeuppance."
Seventh Master nodded and said, "You're from Wax Village too, right? I remember your father was."
Qian Guang nodded but didn't say anything, as if he were a bit uncomfortable.
Seventh Master said, "Dala Village used to be just a stop for our caravan. When we were driven to desperation, we settled here. But when you're poor, you're bullied. The nearby villagers wouldn't let us settle and tried to drive us away. We fought for a long time to keep this place, and many people died. At that time, I vowed never to let the caravan go through such a life of fighting and killing again."
"Dad, the horse caravan is gone, and you're still lost?" Malan said.
Seventh Master was a bit unhappy and said, "The body is gone, but the soul is still here."
Malan didn't take it seriously, but suddenly I thought of something. I said, "Seventh Master, the caravan has disbanded, but the people are still here. Haven't you thought about reorganizing the caravan?"
Seventh Master shook his head and said, "If you promise someone something, you have to follow through..."
After I heard that, I found it a bit unbelievable. Seventh Master is indeed an old fossil. I said, "Seventh Master, we can't use the name 'Mabang,' but we can start a company, form a club, and bring everyone together. Company culture is very important nowadays."
"I've thought about it too, but that was when I was young. Now I'm old, and I don't have a son, so there's no one to carry on. I'm already very satisfied with the current situation, and I just want to maintain it. That's my wish. So, I don't want anyone to cause me trouble before I die," said Elder Qi.
"Dad, I, I can inherit it..." Malan hurriedly said.
Seventh Master ignored Malan and said, "Eat, no more talking."
Seventh Master spoke very decisively. I could tell that he didn't want me to bring up this matter. I felt a bit helpless inside. Why?Why does Seventh Master want to completely reorganize the caravan?
Malan was very uncomfortable, drinking a lot by herself and dragging me into it. I could sense her frustration.
"Qian Guang, you young people should communicate more. Ah Xin needs your help in business. If you have time, meet privately..." Old Master Qi said.
Qian Guang nodded and didn't say anything. Ma Qing said, "Qian Guang, is that okay?"
Qian Guang said, "Sure, Miss Er can come find me anytime..."
"Just call me Ah Xin..."
I watched the two of them chatting, and in Ma Qing's eyes, there was nothing but respect, even a hint of admiration. But in her eyes, I was always met with disdain and contempt. It made me feel so bitter...
I started drinking with Malan. Men always hope that women can face themselves, especially elegant beauties...
This meal took a long time, and by the time we finished, it was already afternoon. Everyone had left, so it was time for us to go as well.
Seventh Master personally delivered the money, and I followed behind. Seventh Master escorted us to the door and said, "Qian Guang, you must seize the opportunity and not let others get ahead of you. Otherwise, it will lead to endless troubles."
