Rebirth of Xiangjiang - 1978

A long time has passed since Crow was taken away by Sangbiao. At first, Ma Kun tried every means to find Crow, but as time went by and news came from the treasure island, Crow wanted to

The possibility of returning to Xiangjiang in the short term is almost zero.

Tianxing was hit hard because of the crow incident. Ma Kun, who originally planned to have a fight with Lin Daoqiu, now feels like he has given up. There are also some voices of dissatisfaction with him within Tianxing. Fortunately, there are

The human weight of these voices is not too heavy, so Ma Kun has not felt any real threat yet.

But if the crow cannot be retrieved as soon as possible, Ma Kun's prestige in Tianxing will be slowly digested over time, and it will be difficult to say whether he will still be a talker in the future.

"Boss, Abao is here and wants to see you."

"Abao? What is he doing here?"

As soon as Ma Kun heard the news that Abao came to see him, he immediately frowned.

As we all know, A Bao is now the confidant of Uncle Cha, the new talker of Xin'an. What does this guy want to do when he suddenly comes to visit? Ma Kun remembers that Tianxing has not had any large-scale conflicts with Xin'an recently. Although there are occasional frictions, that is

It's just a fight between younger brothers, there's no need to even put it on the table.

After thinking about it, Ma Kun decided to meet Abao in person and find out why he came to see him.

"Bring him here."

Not long after Ma Kun finished his instructions, Abao walked in from outside with his two younger brothers.

"Master Ma, long time no see."

As soon as Abao walked in, he cupped his fists and said hello to Ma Kun.

But Ma Kun just glanced at him and then turned his attention to other places.

"Abao from Xin'an, what do you want from me?"

"This is our Brother Bao. Please clarify it for me. He is our second-in-command in Xin'an in the future. You'd better be polite when you speak."

Before Abao could say anything, the boy next to him jumped out without holding back.

Ma Kun was not frightened by the other party's words. He just smiled disdainfully and said.

"What's No. 2 and No. 2? If I remember correctly, aren't the people involved in Xin'an's conversation A Sheng and A Qiang? Why do cats and dogs dare to come in front of me and pretend to be pretentious? Why do you think this is where we are?"

After Ma Kun finished speaking, he slapped his hand on the table. Not long after, a large group of people rushed out and surrounded the door tightly.

"Master Ma, please forgive me for my inability to speak. I came here today to discuss matters regarding Grandpa's funeral. There is no need to make the scene so heated, right?"

Even though his retreat was blocked by a large group of people, Abao looked very calm, as if he didn't take Ma Kun's men seriously at all.

As soon as Ma Kun saw Ah Bao's look, he knew that the move he arranged had no effect on him at all. Since he couldn't scare anyone, there was no need to continue acting. It would only make others feel that he was being petty.

"Okay, this time I will ignore the faults of minors. Sit down."

Ma Kun pointed to the chair opposite him, and Abao walked over directly and sat down.

Those who surrounded the door quickly retreated, and the tense atmosphere suddenly disappeared without a trace.

"I have met your grandpa several times. It's such a pity that something like this happened. By the way, have you found out who did it? If you can't find out, you can ask me for help. After all,

Maybe the person who did it was one of your Xin'an people, so it's normal that you can't find it."

This is just a guess. After Grandpa's accident, except for his enemies, most people thought that Grandpa's death might have been caused by someone inside Xin'an. But as for who it was, everyone had different opinions, and there was no definite answer.

Just guessing.

"Thank you Ma Ye, but this is an internal matter within Xin'an. We can solve it by ourselves without help from others. It's just that my grandpa has been working in Xin'an for so many years, so he must be a bit mean-spirited anyway. I hope that this time Ma Ye can honor me and attend my grandpa's funeral."

, then we would be very grateful.”

It sounded like Abao was here to ask for help, but his appearance and tone of voice didn't sound like he was asking for help. Instead, he seemed to be here to give orders.

"Your grandpa and I have only met each other a few times. We are not familiar with each other at all, and the relationship between Xin'an and Tianxing is just like that. I checked the time and found that I had something to do that day and didn't have time to attend, but don't worry

, when the time comes, I will send a younger brother to deliver a wreath and express my condolences."

If Ma Kun just sent a younger brother to attend, Abao wouldn't need to come to invite him personally, he could just send any cat or dog to deliver the invitation.

But Uncle Cha’s idea or hope is that Ma Kun can go there in person, so that he can earn face.

If only a younger brother had been present at the funeral, Uncle Cha's face would have been tarnished.

"Master Ma, not only friends from Xiangjiang Road will participate, but we have also invited many international friends this time. It will be a big loss for you if you don't go."

Ma Kun also heard about this matter, which was one of the reasons why he didn't want to participate in person. Those people came to Xiangjiang to give Xin'an face. If he went by himself, even if he could meet those people, he would just be borrowing Xin'an's reputation.

This is even more unacceptable to Ma Kun, who also has his own pride.

"I already said that I had something urgent to deal with that day so I couldn't go. Didn't you hear clearly what I just said?"

Ma Kun suddenly lost his temper. He said that he would not attend the funeral, let alone carry the sedan chair for Uncle Cha, because it would not be of any benefit to him.

"Master Ma, I have fulfilled my courtesy. It is your choice whether you go or not. I can't control that. However, if you do not participate, I am afraid that you will lose an opportunity to resolve the previous grudges with Xin'an.

You can handle it yourself, I won't bother you any more."

After Abao finished speaking, he stood up from the chair, then turned around to leave Ma Kun's office.

Ma Kun immediately frowned when he heard what Abao said. What he cared about was what Abao said just now about the opportunity to resolve the previous grudges between Xin'an and Tianxing. Could it be that Uncle Cha intends to reconcile with Tianxing this time? What if?

If that's the case, then Ma Kun wouldn't mind attending the funeral.

"Abao, if you have something to say, just say it clearly. There is no need to leave in a hurry. Sit down and talk slowly."

Ma Kun stood up directly, then walked to Abao and pushed him back to the chair to sit down.

Abao had a proud smile on his face. He knew that Ma Kun would not care about the topic he just raised. No, he had already taken the bait.
