Chapter 221
Feast at Zhenwei Pavilion.
This is the place where the Zhang family held the banquet.
When Lin Le and Lin Zhengsong drove slowly to the entrance of the hotel, they saw that the Zhang family had been waiting there.
As soon as they got off the car, they saw that the Zhang family was neatly lined up in two teams, quietly waiting at the entrance of the hotel.
Zhang Jingtian was dressed in a solemn formal suit, with a cigarette in his mouth, standing upright at the front of the queue, full of aura.
Next to him, there was an old man who looked quite old. The old man was dressed in an elegant Tang suit, with a head of neatly combed silver hair slightly combed back, looking particularly energetic.
Those eyes were deep and bright, as if they contained endless wisdom and experience.
Seeing Lin Le and Qi Shiyi coming, the old man's face was instantly filled with a warm smile, and he walked to the side of the two with steady steps.
The old man glanced at Lin Le and tremblingly extended his hand: "Mr. Lin, I had the honor of meeting you at the charity event a year ago. I'm glad to see you again, ahem..."
Lin Le nodded. It seemed that this old man should be Zhang Peiquan, the head of the Zhang family. Lin Tiancheng had mentioned him before.
The two shook hands.
Then Zhang Peiquan looked at Qi Shiyi again, stretched out his hand and patted his shoulder: "Old Qi, we haven't seen each other for a while, right? We have to have a good chat today, ahem..."
Zhang Peiquan's eyes flashed a barely perceptible cold light.
He learned from Zhang Jingtian that Qi Shiyi had openly challenged their Zhang family that day.
However, he was very cunning and did not show his inner emotions at all. His face was still filled with a warm smile, as if nothing had happened.
On the contrary, Qi Shiyi was suddenly patted twice on the shoulder. He instantly understood what this meant. Zhang Peiquan was clearly reminding him quietly that the Zhang family was not easy to mess with.
Qi Shiyi snorted in his heart, he was indeed an old fox!
Before their Qi family rose, the Zhang family was already the top family in Haipu City.
The Zhang family can have such a status, mostly due to Zhang Peiquan.
His business ability was a mythical existence back then.
For a long time, the Qi family has been steadily suppressed by Zhang Peiquan.
It was not until the Lin family increased its support for the Qi family that the Qi family was able to keep pace with the Zhang family and occupy a place on the business stage of Haipu City.
Qi Shiyi forced a smile twice, and the strength of his handshake was also two points heavier: "Mr. Zhang still looks so strong, you were a celebrity in Haipu City back then, and I always regarded you as my idol back then..."
Qi Shiyi began to flatter in business.
Zhang Jingtian, who was standing behind Zhang Peiquan, was smoking silently, looking at Qi Shiyi with an extremely cold look.
Zhang Peiquan laughed twice, and then made a gesture of invitation with his hand: "Mr. Lin, I am sorry for the poor hospitality. Please come in."
Lin Le nodded, and several people entered the restaurant.
This restaurant is extremely luxurious. When you step into it, the dazzling crystal chandelier exudes charming light. Elegant decorations and exquisite tableware show nobility everywhere.
Zhang Peiquan led several people to a large private room.
At the table, Zhang Peiquan and Zhang Jingtian sat on one side, Lin Le and Lin Zhengsong sat in the middle, and Qi Shiyi leaned next to Lin Zhengsong.
There were five people at a table, and many people from the Zhang and Qi families stood around the table.
Zhang Peiquan looked at the people around him and then said to them: "You go out first, we have to talk about serious things."
After that, the people around him retreated on their own and closed the door.
The dishes on the table looked unusually rich, and the aroma of the dishes was overflowing.
However, Lin Le had no appetite. The purpose of coming here today was to find out the result of the Zhang family incident.
"Mr. Lin, Lao Qi, and the muscular handsome guy next to you, let me toast you first. It's rare for three big families to gather here!"
Zhang Peiquan picked up the wine glass in front of him, and his eyes always stayed on Lin Le.
Lin Zhengsong waved his hand: "I don't drink, you drink, just pretend I don't exist."
Lin Le stood up and picked up the wine glass in front of him, clinked it with them, and then drank it all.
The spicy taste poured directly into his throat, and he felt as if a ball of fire rose in his stomach in an instant.
But soon the spicy taste disappeared, and a grain aroma of white wine lingered in his mouth.
Lin Le rarely drinks, but the taste of this wine is indeed good.
After drinking, Lin Le put down the wine glass and looked at Zhang Peiquan: "Mr. Zhang, you said that you have found out, so what is the matter with that incident?"
Hearing this, Zhang Peiquan nodded and looked at Zhang Jingtian.Zhang Jingtian took out a tablet from his bag and tapped on it, as if he was operating something.
After the operation, Zhang Jingtian stood up, walked to Lin Le's side, and handed him the tablet respectfully.
"Mr. Lin, please look, all the things our Zhang family has found about Lao Wang are on it. In order to prevent someone from accusing my Zhang family of fraud, we have listed all the evidence in advance, and all of them have been authenticated."
When Zhang Peiquan said the word "someone", he glanced at Qi Shiyi casually, obviously talking about him.
Qi Shiyi snorted coldly, drank the white wine in front of him again, and said nothing.
Looking at the tablet in his hand, Lin Le fell into deep thought.
Most of the information on the tablet was some photos, as well as transfer records and bank card information.
"Let me explain the results of our Zhang family's investigation. The group of mercenaries who entered the country a year ago did enter the country on our ocean-going freighter numbered Z-810906-21..."
Hearing this, Qi Shiyi spoke up: "Mr. Lin, did you hear that? The Zhang family admitted their actions. They brought the mercenaries in! So Uncle Wang was killed by you! I didn't expect it, Mr. Zhang. I really don't understand what hatred the Lin family has with you that you would do such a thing!"
Lin Le frowned and glanced at Qi Shiyi coldly with a hint of coldness.
Qi Shiyi didn't dare to speak immediately.
"Ahem..."
Zhang Peiquan looked very unhappy when he was interrupted. He stood up slowly with his crutches, walked to Qi Shiyi's side, and then stretched out his wrinkled hand and patted his shoulder again.
"Old Qi, why are you so anxious? Mr. Lin is here. I have explained the whole story. Mr. Lin can decide what to do, right? Ahem... "
Zhang Peiquan narrowed his eyes, making it difficult to see his true thoughts.
At this time, Lin Le spoke: "Mr. Zhang, please continue."
Zhang Peiquan nodded: "We found the sailor Zhuang Ming who was responsible for picking up the group of mercenaries on board with Lao Wang at that time. He admitted that he took a lot of money and was responsible for doing this with Lao Wang. At that time, everyone was asleep at night, and then the two of them picked up the sailors on board. We sent people to Lao Wang's hometown and found out based on his transfer records."
"So, this sailor Zhuang Ming should have participated in the incident that year? Where is he now?" Lin Le asked.
