Chapter 68 Thank you, old master

  "What could you be sending to Old Stone that's so top-secret?" Ma Jiping asked with a furrowed brow, looking at Liu Shijiang.

  "Deputy Director Ma, I'm not saying you, but you don't understand the rules," Liu Shijiang said with feigned surprise, looking at Ma Jiping.

  "What are you putting on me?" Ma Ji Ping saw it and came even more spirited, saying that he went to grab the thing in Liu Shi Qiang's hand.

  "Ah, ah, ah..." Liu Shijiang said, pretending to be helpless, picked up the bag in his hand, unzipped it, and reached inside for something.

  "If it were for the director, I wouldn't dare look. Ah, but since it's for Old Stone, I have to check." Ma Jiping said, and then reached in to dig out the contents.

  At this time, Liu Shijiang took out the "Land Pass" from inside and handed it to Ma Jiping. He looked at him with a pretended fearful and vigilant expression while observing the surrounding situation.

  Ma Ji Ping took the "Land Pass" from Liu Shi Qiang's hand and said in surprise: "Ah, Director is going to get rich."

  "Are you jealous?" Liu Shijiang laughed and snatched the land pass from Maji Ping's hand, put it in his bag, and asked with a smile.

  "It's a bit." Magi Ping opened his mouth into an O shape and said somewhat woodenly.

  "If you're really jealous, go find Old Shi and ask him to give you some too. Otherwise, I'll expose all of Director Ji's words." Liu Shijiang said, looking at Ma Jiping as if he was taking his side and planning for him.

  "This is quite ruthless." Magi Ping said, still with his mouth open and a bit frightened.

  "This world is not cruel, can you make money?" Liu Shijiang said, nodding towards him, then turned and walked into his own car. Suddenly, he turned around and looked at Ma Jiping, saying: "Hey, why don't you go deliver it to the director?"

  "Who sent me?" Ma Ji Ping looked at Liu Shi Qiang with great confusion and asked.

  "Right, great, settle this with him." Liu Shijiang said as he handed over the bag in his hand to him.

  Ma Ji Ping shifted his eyes and suddenly stuffed the package in his hand into Liu Shi Qiang's hand, then turned around and ran away.

  As he watched Maji Ping's receding back, a pleased smile appeared on Liu Shijiang's face.

  Hey, this Maji Ping looks like it's lit pretty well.

  Liu Shijiang stood beside his car, watching Maji Ping storm in with a huff. He took another look around and then turned into the car.

  In the spacious living room of Shi Lao Ban's house.

  Mr. Shi was smiling, holding the "Land Pass" in one hand and gently stroking his whiskers with the other, while seriously looking at it. On the slanted chair opposite him sat Liu Shijiang, dressed elegantly.

  He looked at Erlang's leg, one hand on the back of the chair and the other on his own wrist, expressionless as he stared at Old Stone.

  "Alright, alright." Old Stone gently tapped the permit with his hand and chuckled, then slowly placed it on the table, laughing and saying: "For something like this, you even had Secretary Liu personally come over, I'm really sorry about that." Old Stone slowly turned his head around, looking at Liu Shiqiang with a smile, and said with a clenched fist.

  "Mr. Shi is being polite." Liu Shijiang said with a smile as he looked at Mr. Shi.

  At this time, Old Stone nodded slightly towards the steward Old Tang beside him, and Old Tang smiled slightly and retreated to go inside.

  Liu Shijiang looked at them with suspicion, unsure of what kind of trick they were trying to pull.

  "Secretary Liu, have some tea. This is the finest Ti Kuan Yin." Old Master Shi said with a smile as he looked at Liu Shijiang, while making a inviting gesture with one hand.

  "Thank you." Liu Shijiang said to Shi Laoban, turned around and picked up the teacup, took a sip.

  "Oh. Secretary Liu. Director Chen, have you been very busy lately?" Old Stone asked Liu Shiqiang.

  "Director, it's been quite busy these past two days." Liu Shiqiang said to Shi Laoban while putting the teacup in his hand on the table.

  "This guy, I don't know how many times I've told him. He says he's in his sixties now, but still acts like a young man. Rushing around everywhere, is it worth it?" Old Master Shi said with a smile to Liu Shiqiang.

  At this time, Tang Guan had already brought a plate to Lao Shi's side.

  Mr. Shi laughed a few times after he finished speaking, and Liu Shijiang also smiled slightly.

  Mr. Shi stretched out his hand towards Liu Shijiang, and Tang Guanjia immediately came to Liu Shijiang's side with a plate in his hand and put the plate on the table beside Liu Shijiang.

  There is a rectangular box wrapped in red cloth inside the dish.

  "Mr. Liu, this is a small token of appreciation from me. Please accept it." Mr. Shi said with a smile as he waved his hand.

  Liu Shijiang listened, then turned around and picked up the small box from the table, opened it to take a look, inside were three golden bars shining brightly.

  "Thank you." Liu Shijiang smiled and said as he looked at Shi Laoban. Then, he put the box into his pocket.

  "Secretary Liu, is this your first time coming to our place? My backyard would like to invite you to take a stroll, I don't know if you have the interest?" Mr. Shi said with a smile as he looked at Liu Shijiang invitingly.

  "Good." Liu Shijiang looked at Shi Laoban with a smile and nodded his head, seemingly also very interested.

  "Please."

  Mr. Shi said and stretched out his hand, making a gesture of invitation. He also stood up and took Liu Shijiang to the back.

  Liu Shijiang and Tang Guanjia followed behind Shi Laoban, walking slowly forward.

  Walking in the winding corridor, facing the peach red and green scenery, fake mountains, flowers and grass, trees, dotted with. Protecting far away is a narrow lake.

  Through the nine-turns corridor, I came to a place with a moon gate, where several gardeners were standing guard, and it looked a bit mysterious inside.

  "Mr. Shi, this place is very mysterious." Liu Shijiang, who was walking forward, suddenly turned his head and said to Mr. Shi.

  "Oh, oh," Old Shi stopped and stood up straight, looking at Liu Shijiang and saying: "Liu Secretary's eyes indeed have a unique perspective. Hehehe, ah, I've been traveling the world for so many years, and as the treasure of the town, I do have a few pieces. Hmph, it's just that in recent years, with war and chaos, and an unstable situation, I naturally had to take extra care of these treasures."

  As he spoke, he looked at Liu Shijiang and stretched out his hand in front of him, saying: "Secretary Liu, come, please step this way."

  Just then, I had just arrived at a nine-bend corridor.

  "Master, Master..."

  With a woman's wailing voice, a man in his thirties, holding a one or two-year-old child who was crying loudly, came before Shi Lao Ban, with tears all over his face.

  "Who are you people? Get out quickly!" Old steward Tang shouted loudly.

  Old Master Shi gazed at the woman with a slanted eye, standing there. For a moment, he didn't speak. Looking at the mother and son kneeling in front of him, Old Master Shi's heart was loudly scolding, "You shameless woman, how dare you not know the timing? You didn't come early or late, but came exactly when it's most inconvenient. How annoying!"

  Besides, for a while, he didn't know what was going on either, and it wasn't good to speak rashly, so he could only watch the mother and son with his eyes.

  Thinking so, he then looked at the mother and son with his eyes, looking at the steward Old Tang, asking him what was going on.

  Liu Shijiang also looked at them, without making a sound. He was observing how the stone boss would deal with this poor mother and son.

  "I'm a warehouse worker. I've been working hard all the time, never slacking off. It's just that recently my child has been running a fever and it won't go away, so I've mustered up the courage to come before you and beg if you could possibly give us some of our wages from the past few months, so I can take my child to see a doctor. I'm really at my wit's end."

  At the time when the woman was wailing and crying out in sorrow, the child in her arms had been crying loudly non-stop, almost hoarse from crying.

  Looking at her miserable situation, Liu Shijiang couldn't bear it in his heart and was about to give the three gold bars he had just taken out to them.

  However, thinking that he is now a guest and there is still a host around him, so he quietly stood there, quietly observing the outcome of things.

  "Get out of here, you old hag! Can't you see what kind of situation this is?" Old Tang, the butler, shouted loudly at her.

  "Lao Tang." At this time, Shi Laoban finally spoke up and called out to him.

  "Master, master, please! Master!" The woman knelt down and cried out.

  The child was also crying out loud in her arms.

  It was a scene of blood and tears!

  Liu Shijiang is still observing the changes.

  "Get up quickly." At this time, Old Stone handed the palm of his hand to Housekeeper Old Tang's hand, hurriedly bent down, stretched out both hands, and helped the mother and son get up.

  "I'm not clear about the wage arrears, let me send someone to investigate immediately. If it's true, I'll give you every penny. How about that? Let the child see a doctor as soon as possible. Old Tang."

  "In."

  "Go and take her to the kitchen, make a few more dishes, eat well, and give people money without missing a single cent." Old Master Shi instructed while looking at Housekeeper Old Tang.

  Mr Shi apologized with a bow while supporting the mother and son with his hands.

  "Yes, yes, yes, yes." The butler, Old Tang, nodded and bowed as he spoke to Master Shi.

  "Come. Come with me."

  "Thank you, sir. Thank you, sir."

  At this time, Liu Shijiang was standing on one side, turning his gaze from Shi Laoban to another direction. His heart was churning like the ocean at this moment. The woman, holding her child, bowed deeply and expressed her gratitude with utmost sincerity.

  Hmph, look at these blood-sucking big bosses, one set of words in front of people and another behind their backs. Look at him, pretending to be a kind-hearted gentleman in front of me.
