Go back to 1990 to start a business

Chapter 18 The Razor’s Edge

"Who?" The woman's voice was obviously not very fluent in Chinese, and sounded like Korean.

To say that the only one in the Liu family who can speak standard Mandarin is Liu Xueyao.

"Hello, eldest sister, I am Tang Xiaodong, Liu Xueyao's classmate. Is Xueyao at home?"

After all, Tang Xiaodong is a son of an official family, so he is quite decent when he is serious.

"Wait a moment." Then a voice came from inside: "Little sister, phone! It's Tang Xiaodong calling."

After a while, Liu Xueyao's calm voice finally came:

"Tang Xiaodong, why are you so late?"

Tang Xiaodong glanced at his father and second uncle, and Liu Xueyao obviously didn't know what he meant.

The two of them were so angry that they wanted to beat him to death. How could the Liu family not even have this little city?

Tang Xiaodong saw that the two people looked unkind and quickly lowered his gaze, but he had an idea and did not apologize.

"Xue Yao, I would like to treat you and Xia Chuan to a meal at noon tomorrow. I wonder if you have time?"

"I have time. I don't know about Xia Chuan. Why did you invite us to dinner?"

"Well, let's talk about it after we meet. You try to take Xia Chuan with you. If it's not convenient for him at noon, then it's okay to do it in the evening."

"Xia Chuan will go back to Hushan tomorrow night, at noon. If you have anything to say to me, I will tell him."

"Does he really live in Hushan?" Tang Xiaodong asked in shock.

"Yes, it's at the foot of Hushan Mountain, but the registered residence is not in Hushan Mountain."

Tang Xiaodong wished he could kick Jiang Er to death. Didn’t you say absolutely not?

But then I was overjoyed. Someone died in that place, and even the body couldn't be found.

Let Jiang Er kill Xia Chuan tomorrow night!

"Then it's settled. Where would you like to go at noon tomorrow?"

"If you want me to decide, don't feel bad."

"Xue Yao, you are making fun of me. You can point to any place and I won't say anything."

"Then let's go to Jiugecheng. I'm familiar with the landlady, I'll book the room, I'll order the food, and you'll pay the bill."

It sounds like you want to kill him severely.

Tang Xiaodong is such a pretentious person, he doesn't care about this, he immediately said: "No problem! It's settled, see you at noon tomorrow."

"OK." Xue Yao hung up the phone.

Tang Xiaodong was very proud. Look, there was no need to apologize at all.

But looking at the faces of the two old men, they were still so gloomy, and he couldn't help but tremble.

"What's going on in Hushan?" Tang Wu asked with a gloomy face: "At such a critical moment, you actually want to hide such important details?"

Tang Xiaodong breathed a sigh of relief, just for this reason. He said nonchalantly:

"I asked Liu Xueyao where Xia Chuan lived, and she said she lived in Hushan. I asked someone to check, but there was no such person. That's all."

"Why did Xia Chuan go to Hushan to buy a house?" Tang Wu never let go of any doubt.

"How do I know? I'll ask at noon tomorrow."

Tang Wu frowned and pondered for a while, then said: "There is definitely something wrong with this house. I'd better go there myself. Since there are clues, I must find out. I feel like it is used to commit crimes!"

After saying that, he quickly stood up and left.

Tang Xiaodong didn't take it seriously. How could a poor guy like Xia Chuan commit a crime?

He made up his mind to call Jiang Er tomorrow and ask him to lead someone to kill Xia Chuan that night.

Completely wash away today’s shame!

……

the next morning.

Xia Chuan ran all the way to the pavilion on the top of the mountain.

Just halfway around the pavilion, my steps suddenly froze.

"Tang Yun?" Xia Chuan was very surprised. Does she come here every day to wait for the old man?

Tang Yun looked a little haggard, but she was still a beauty. She was obviously pretending to be a chance encounter, "Xia Chuan. I didn't see you yesterday morning."

"I was in Hushan yesterday. As long as I was at home, I would definitely come for a run." Xia Chuan explained seriously.

Tang Yun looked relieved. As for what Xia Chuan was doing in Hushan, she didn't want to know.

She wanted to ask if there was any news about Lao Tao, but she was too embarrassed to ask. Finally, she said in a low voice: "It's great to meet you. I come every day."

"I also hope to see you safe and sound every day, shall we go down the mountain together?" Xia Chuan became more and more cautious.

"Okay." Tang Yun turned around.

Xia Chuan walked side by side with her and asked as if he had nothing to say: "I know a classmate named Tang Xiaodong in the Laogan Bureau. Do you know him?"

Tang Yun's eyes lit up: "Are you and Tang Xiaodong classmates? That's my cousin."

"That's such a coincidence." Xia Chuan smiled and said nonchalantly: "When there is news about Lao Dao, let's go and take a look."

"Yes, I will definitely go." Tang Yun's voice was choked again.

Xia Chuan sighed secretly and prepared to say some words of comfort.

"I remember the first time I ran, the old Taoist dragged me. Later I gradually got used to it, and I ran for several years. The encounter between people is really fate, just like a dance. The person who first taught you the dance steps... I may not be able to accompany you until the end."

Tang Yun pursed her lips and said nothing. It had only been three days, and when she was deeply unforgettable, how could she listen to it, let alone let it go?

But it was not good to remain silent all the time, so she had to change her mind: "By the way, my father seems to be in Hushan too. Is this a coincidence?"

Xia Chuan smiled slightly: "I bought a house in Hushan. Your father is going to investigate me. But don't worry, I haven't done anything illegal. On the contrary, it's not good for you to always leak my father's whereabouts. Don't do it casually in the future. Talk to people.”

Tang Yun nodded gently, "I can't control dad's work, but I absolutely trust you because you are Lao Dao's best friend."

"Well. Since you absolutely trust me, let me say a few more words." Xia Chuan looked at Tang Yun's solemn gaze and said calmly: "First, sometimes friends are more reliable than relatives; second, let your father and Your uncle must draw a clear line, otherwise he will suffer the same fate as a fish in a pond.”

Tang Yun's eyes showed extreme shock.

For the first time, she felt Xia Chuan's terrifying energy. This man was far less strong than Zhao Yuntao, and he didn't have the sense of strength that could explode at any time, but there was something else in him that was inexplicable.

That is the courage to walk on the razor's edge, that is the wisdom that is comfortable in the adult world, and that is the indifference of looking at life and death with a smile.It also made her feel palpitated and incredible.

Why do I understand him so little?

……

In the afternoon, Xia Chuan took the long-distance bus with his guitar on his back.

Why take the bus?The bicycle is still detained at the police station. It is Liu Changsheng's tool involved in the case.

As for the guitar, it is a pretentious tool for young people in this era.

Bell bottoms, long hair, and playing guitar are the best combination to attract women's attention.

90. In the 60s, young men playing guitar could be seen everywhere on the road, ranging from 120 yuan for Kingfisher to [-] yuan for Kapok.

Only the woman playing the guitar was nowhere to be seen.

At least Xia Chuan has never seen any of them.

But in this life, Xia Chuan no longer needs to show off.

He was carrying the guitar because there was no entertainment in Hushan.

In Anton in the 90s, most ordinary people had [-]-inch black and white TVs, and color TVs were definitely for the rich.

Hushan didn't even have a radio, but there was an old-fashioned gramophone that was broken.

After getting off the car at Hushan, Xia Chuan saw a beautiful beauty standing in the yard from a distance as soon as he entered the village. She was particularly eye-catching in this remote and remote place.

When I got closer, I saw that she was indeed a beauty.
