Volume 2 Cold Dew Chapter 39 Specialties
"Are you guys playing a game where whoever blinks first loses?" Jiang You walked to the counter, pulled out a tissue, took off his glasses and wiped the lenses. "I just fell asleep and didn't look at my phone. Jiang Mo, can you sing Spider-Man?"
Jiang Mo jumped off the chair and staggered up the stairs.
It was getting dark outside. Su Yi walked to the door and knocked. "Xiao Jiang, that's all for today. Shall we go?"
Jiang You took two steps forward and said, "Go back quickly, it will be dark soon."
After watching the construction team leave, Jiang You walked back to the long table. "Normally no one comes. Today I just wanted to sit alone and read a novel and daydream, but they all came."
Tang Butian asked, "Who's here?"
"Old man Xu asked me to go to his house to play chess on the weekend, along with Liu Boyang."
"Play chess?"
"Yeah," Jiang You folded his hands and lay on the long table, "This old man Xu is quite interesting. He always says that he has improved in chess, but he always wins in the replay."
“What is a replay win?”
"When reviewing the game, I said, oh, I originally wanted to do this and that, so..." Jiang You laughed, "It's quite fun."
"What about you?"
"Me? I play health-preserving chess," Jiang You paused, then added, "Intelligent AI is so powerful now. You know, when playing chess online now, it's not about chess skills, but machine performance. It has also boosted the sales of desktop computers. Xiaoya, what time is it now?"
Student Xiaoya: It is now 17:25 in the afternoon.
Jiang You looked at Tang Butian and said, "How is my new smart speaker? Is it fun?"
"Just now I wanted to go upstairs, or call you."
"Then what?"
"He suddenly stood at the stairs. If the construction team was not there, he would kill me." Tang Butian stated calmly.
"He doesn't care if there's anyone outside if he wants to kill someone," Jiang You stood up straight. "I had a headache just now, and he was probably afraid that you would disturb my sleep. Do you think there's something wrong with my brain? I think I should get a CT scan or MRI of my brain, or buy some walnuts or something to supplement my diet. What do you want to drink? There are lychee and peach flavored sodas. Which one do you want?"
"litchi ."
"Iced or not?"
"Not cold."
Jiang You walked to the kitchen, opened the refrigerator, took out a bottle of ice cola, drank most of it in one breath, and then took out a bottle of lychee soda from the box by the wall.
He walked to the opposite side of Tang Butian and placed the soda in front of Tang Butian. "He is just a little fierce. Usually when someone steps on his net, he will just sulk by himself. Look at the area around Wenhua Street. How good is the public security in recent years?"
“Three months ago, antisocial elements poured petrol and set fire to the yard of a shop on the street, seriously injuring the shop owner and causing direct and indirect economic losses amounting to tens of thousands of dollars.”
Jiang You changed the subject, "Luo Chengyuan, do you know this person?"
"who is he?"
"You should thank him."
"Him? Luo Chengyuan?"
"No, ginger."
Tang Butian looked at Jiang You in confusion.
"Think carefully about Luo Chengyuan's style of doing things. He lured Liu Yong into the trap, and all the bad things were done by Liu Yong. When the Rake Company attracted your attention, he transferred the assets of the Rake Company and threw Liu Yong to you as a trophy. Both sides benefited. How safe is it for him to hide behind the scenes?"
"I was an accident," Jiang You pointed at himself, "You wanted to test me, so you took action against Liu Yong earlier. But from his perspective, it's unlikely that he would believe that I was an accident, and I..."
"What?" Tang Butian grasped the point.
"I am a little obsessed with growing flowers and plants, so when you came to me that day, he tried to test me, and then a bigger accident happened."
Jiang You walked to the door and took a deep breath. "Do you feel that the air here has become better?"
Tang Butian followed him.
The wind blows the leaves of the camphor saplings.
"No."
"What do you want for dinner?"
“Hot and sour noodles.”
Jiang You turned his head and glanced at Tang Butian, "Which one?"
"It's all right. Let's order takeout. I want to hear you continue."
"That's all I have to say. Just listen to it, don't take it seriously."
"What's the meaning?"
"I am just guessing purely from my experience, just like writing a novel. As a people's policeman, remember to speak with evidence."
Jiang You turned around and walked back. He found his phone and said, "There is indeed a hot and sour noodle restaurant nearby that tastes good. I often order it. I found it. Do you want anything else? I want two more roujiamo. Do you want any?"
"I want one."
Jiang You placed the order.
"So after Luo Chengyuan's accident, their plans were disrupted. He died on June 8th. If he were still alive, 123 would have the first-mover advantage, but Little Naughty might not..."
He walked to the counter, took the candy bowl to the table, picked up a chocolate candy, peeled it, and said vaguely while chewing, "Autumn is suitable for eating sweets." He opened the food delivery app again, "One piece of chocolate cake per person? And a cup of lemon black tea to relieve the greasiness?"
Tang Butian assessed her appetite and said, "Okay."
"This explains why Lei Yao and Jiang Yunxian are so stupid. The smart leader is gone."
"According to what you said, they should let professionals run the company, why don't they do that?"
"Professional talents? Professional managers?" Jiang You put down his phone. "The truly talented ones must have high IQs. After they get in, they will definitely find that something is wrong with this company. They will definitely run away faster than the other. And..."
"What?"
Jiang You looked at Tang Butian steadily, "Before you went down the mountain, did you treat the people down there as human beings?"
"Mortal." Tang Butian admitted.
"You have to thank Xia Xia."
"Yes."
"So they are the same. Jiang Yunxian and Lei Yao, they are not willing to be the thugs of ordinary people, and they don't even listen to the advice of ordinary people. So their subordinates, those ordinary people, must just work day by day and find ways to fool the KPI every quarter. The future of the company has nothing to do with them. Even if it goes bankrupt, they can just change to another company."
Jiang You looked at Tang Butian and said, "Tell me, should you thank Jiang Mo?"
Tang Butian hesitated for a moment, "Yes, yes."
Jiang You looked at her with a smile, "It's his birthday next month, what gift are you going to give him?"
"Gift?"
"Just give me something thoughtful, like some local produce from the mountains, or pick some flowers and plants for me to plant in the yard."
