Chapter 99 Xu Si's Request"They are all over there, why don't you go over and take a look?"
"No." Jiang Lan yawned uninterested, "Is there any water?"
"Yes." Xu Si said, got into a truck nearby and took out a bottle of mineral water.
Jiang Lan reached out to take it, unscrewed the bottle cap, and poured it onto the dried blood on his hands.
After a few rinses, all the bloodstains disappeared and dripped onto the ground with the water.
The bloodstain had been on his hands for a long time. Although it had no effect on Jiang Lan, he still felt a little uncomfortable.
"You, you killed quite a few people just now..."
Because it was dark, Xu Si noticed the blood on Jiang Lan's hands when he saw him washing his hands.
"Ah."
Jiang Lan drank the remaining half bottle of water in one gulp and continued, "About seven or eight, I can't remember exactly how many."
"Tsk tsk..." Xu Si smacked his lips, "They are all Quan Xing, right?"
Jiang Lan glanced at Xu Si and said nothing.
Xu Si chuckled, "It's not that I don't trust you, I'm just asking."
After saying that, he seemed to suddenly remember something and asked Jiang Lan, "By the way, what about the second one..."
Jiang Lan knew what Xu Si was referring to and nodded slightly, "It has awakened, but I don't feel that it has any effect on me."
In fact, there is an impact, but compared with what Jiang Lan had endured before, the current impact seems insignificant.
Moreover, Jiang Lan could feel that the Taowu, which had just awakened, did not enter the inner elixir in his dantian, but instead, like the Taotie at the beginning, it was entrenched in his spiritual platform.
Jiang Lan didn’t know about it before. He just thought that Taotie was hiding in a secret place inside his body. It was not until some time ago that he figured out that the place where Taotie originally lived was exactly his spiritual platform.
Hearing this, Xu Si let out a long sigh, "It's good that there is no impact... You don't know, I have been worried for the past two days, afraid that something might happen to you."
Jiang Lan smiled and said:
"If something goes wrong, wouldn't that be better? I can go back to the bunker and you can have some free time."
"What you said..." Xu Si seemed a little unhappy, "We are brothers after all. Don't you know who I am?"
"It's just a joke, don't take it seriously." Jiang Lan said with a smile.
Just when Xu Si wanted to say something to Jiang Lan, a figure slowly approached from a distance.
Seeing the person coming, Xu Si raised his hand and greeted him.
"Dad! Here it is!"
The person who came was Dou Le, the head of the East China region of Nadutong.
But Xiao Zizai was not there with him.
Dou Le walked up to Xu Si and said, "Xiao Xu, we have captured quite a few Quan Xing this time. This is a great achievement for you."
Xu Si smiled and said:
"Come on, you've seen it before. Longhu Mountain was almost torn to pieces. It's good enough that the company didn't punish me. I don't want to do any meritorious service anymore."
Upon hearing this, Dou Le took out a cigarette case from his pocket, popped out two cigarettes, and handed them to Xu Si.
"Longhu Mountain is located in East China, and I was supposed to be in charge of it. This time you are taking the lightning for me. I won't say much, thank you..."
Xu Si took out a cigarette, thought for a moment, and handed it to Jiang Lan next to him. Then he took out a cigarette from Dou Le's cigarette box.
Jiang Lan said nothing, took it silently and put it in his mouth.
Xu Si took the lighter, lit it and handed it to Jiang Lan.
Jiang Lan's eyes flashed with surprise, but he still didn't say anything, just silently took a puff towards the flame. He didn't smoke, and Xu Si knew this.
But since Xu Si did this, he must have his purpose. Jiang Lan is not stupid and will not sabotage him at this time.
Seeing this scene, Dou Le seemed a little surprised, but didn't say anything.
He also took out a cigarette and lit it. Dou Le exhaled the smoke and said:
"I just got the news that the head office wants the heads of our seven regions to attend a meeting."
"Meeting... The company hasn't had a meeting for a long time. What's the matter this time?" Xu Si asked, leaning on the truck that could go everywhere.
Dou Le glanced at Jiang Lan standing beside him, as if he wanted to say something.
But after seeing the cigarette in Jiang Lan's mouth, he turned his gaze directly to Xu Sidao:
"I don't know the details, but it seems to be because of the temporary workers. I heard that the temporary workers at Lao Liao's place defected a while ago."
Dou Le continued, "This call is probably for this matter. I think the company may have to reform the temporary worker system. I can't say how strong it will be, but I wouldn't be surprised even if they abolished the temporary worker system."
Xu Si paused.
After a while, he said, "Brother Dou, do you think it will really come to that?"
"Xiao Xu, there's no point in trying to get my opinion. No matter what decision the headquarters makes, we have to follow it."
Dou Le exhaled a puff of smoke and said with a smile.
Xu Si frowned. "If the company really wants to use temporary workers, I have to have a good talk with them. Apart from anything else, without temporary workers, some things will be very difficult to do."
"With temporary workers, some troublesome jobs are much easier to do." Dou Le continued, "But I still say that if the company really wants to use temporary workers, I can't do anything about it. Do you have any?"
Xu Si threw the cigarette butt under his feet and stomped it out. "I definitely can't do it alone, but... forget it, we'll talk about it later."
After saying this, Xu Si continued:
"It's not easy for several of us regional leaders to get together. How about we get together before this meeting?"
"also……"
Jiang Lan had been listening to the conversation between the two people.
He also knew why Xu Si had specially handed him the cigarette just now.
Just to let him listen next to me.
Handing him the cigarette was to tell Dou Le that Jiang Lan was one of them and he didn't need to worry about him.
Otherwise, Dou Le would not have said those words just now.
Jiang Lan looked at Xu Si with some surprise, but quickly concealed his expression.
So...Xu Si already knew what Dou Le wanted him to do?
Yes, when Chen Duo got into trouble before, Xu Si was there.
Jiang Lan was thinking about something in his mind, while Xu Si, who was standing next to him, exchanged a few more words with Dou Le before saying goodbye.
After seeing Dou Le off, Xu Si took out a cigarette box from his pocket, took out a cigarette, lit it and took a deep breath.
He looked at Jiang Lan.
"Although I didn't receive any notification, when I first saw my father, I knew he definitely didn't come here to chat with me. Temporary worker... To be honest, I had already guessed it before my father opened his mouth, but after I really confirmed it..."
Jiang Lan stared at Xu Si for a long time, but suddenly a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
"Didn't you say that we are brothers after all? If there is anything, just speak directly. There is no need to hide it."
