    "Please forgive me, because I am a director of Houde Company. According to the rules, I cannot provide guarantee for others. Otherwise, I could have provided guarantee for you, Fusheng!" Liu Qingyang's face was full of sincere apology.  "You don't have to apologize. Everyone has their own position!" Chen Zaixing smiled, put the note into his arms, stood up and said, "Since that's the case, I'll leave first." "Resurrection, it's rare for you to come.  On a trip to Shanghai, why don't I set up a table at Deyue Tower to take care of you? " "No, you've seen it too. I really don't have time. It's not too late to bother me again after this matter is over!"  When Chen Zaixing said this, he bowed his hands to the other party and walked outside.  "When a villain succeeds, he takes advantage of others' danger!" In the carriage, Jiang Zhiqing cursed and spat, but Chen Zaixing's face was calm as usual, and he ordered in a deep voice: "Go back to the company first!" "Master, what should I do? Really go and beg for help.  How many people are on the list?" Jiang Zhiqing asked carefully.  "Let's take a look at the situation first!" Chen Zaixing responded casually and asked: "By the way, Zhiqing, are there any good Huaiyang restaurants in Shanghai? For smaller ones, let's forget about Deyuelou? It's September, and it's the time for crab fat.  It¡¯s time for the market!¡± Jiang Zhiqing was stunned when he heard this. He didn¡¯t expect Chen Zaixing to have the leisure to eat crabs at this time. After a while, he came back to his senses and hurriedly replied: ¡°Yes, yes, there is a restaurant over at Nanqiaokou.  The Huaiyang restaurant is called Jufengtang. The owner is a son of a fallen salt merchant. He is not very good at running the family business, but he is very good at eating, drinking and having fun. Although the store is not big, only four or five shops, the craftsmanship is outstanding.  It¡¯s really amazing, the Huaiyang cuisine is the best in Shanghai!¡± At this point, Jiang Zhiqing stretched out his right thumb and raised it high.  "Then let's go to the one at Nanqiaokou. I'll take a nap first. Call me when we get there!" "Yes, sir!" Jufengtang at Nanqiaokou.  "Master! Watch your step, the threshold is high!" A waiter lifted the door curtain for Chen Zaixing, turned around and shouted loudly: "Three masters inside, hello!" "Three men!" came a voice from behind the patio.  In response, it oscillates back and forth between the narrow walls, forming a wonderful harmonic effect.  Chen Zaixing, who had already changed into a Tsing Yi hat, flicked his wrist, unfolded the gold folding fan in his hand, and shook it twice, looking like a rich young man often seen on the beach in Shanghai.  Jiang Zhiqing and Aoba followed behind, and they walked straight through the patio and into the main room inside. They saw a plaque hanging on the main room with four gilded characters on it, "Meng Chang's Legacy".  "Master, please wipe your face!" As soon as he walked in, a servant brought a steaming towel. Chen Zaixing took one and wiped his face twice. His spirits were lifted. He threw the towel to the servant.  Suddenly, I saw a middle-aged man in his early forties sitting in the main seat of the main hall. He was wearing a well-dressed man and was holding a snuff bottle to enjoy it. He didn't get up to greet him, as if he hadn't seen the three of them at all.  Chen Zaixing couldn't help being stunned, turned around and asked in a low voice: "Zhiqing, what's going on? How can someone in the restaurant business behave like this?" "Sir, this is the fallen salt merchant and the owner of Jufengtang.  , surnamed Tan!" Jiang Zhiqing stepped forward and whispered: "Although this surnamed Tan's family business has collapsed, his arrogance has not collapsed. He obviously has no money to support his family and has to open a catering business, but he pretends to be a good person.  It's like treating guests to dinner. On the surface, Jufenglou is not a business, we are all guests at his house." Chen Zaixing was stunned and asked, "Do you need to pay?"  "Give it!" Jiang Zhiqing said with a smile: "But it's not a meal in name, but a gift from a friend. The price is also famously expensive. After all, his ancestors have been in the Zhongmingding Food family for five or six generations, so they spend all their food and drinks."  First-rate, the people who come here are all respectable people, so it¡¯s not bad!¡± ¡°Isn¡¯t that a cover-up?¡± After hearing what Jiang Zhiqing said, Chen Zaixing couldn¡¯t help but feel happy. He thought of what he had just seen on the patio.  The four big characters "Mengchang's legacy" contrast well with this man's style.  "Sir, what you said is wrong. This master wants to put on airs and deceive himself, and he won't bother anyone, so why not? After all, isn't everyone acting these days? The top deceives the bottom, and the bottom deceives the top.  There are many people whose wives lie to their husbands, and whose sons lie to their fathers. Compared with this man, how many people are waiting for him? " After hearing Jiang Zhiqing's words, Chen Zaixing couldn't help but be stunned. Although these words were rough.  It sounds like just the angry words of a cynic, and is often biased, but when you think about it carefully, it is endlessly memorable.  For example, if I say that I have no feelings for my late wife, it is absolutely impossible. After all, the tenderness and love between husband and wife for several years are not fake.  It would be unreasonable to say that there was no mutual use between himself and Luo Lin. After all, without him, Luo Lin would not be able to ascend the throne of the regent princess, let alone??As for taking charge of the Kingdom of Myanmar, he might become a puppet toy of some ambitious person within the kingdom, and his end would be extremely miserable.  If he didn't have Luo Lin, he wouldn't be able to control the Kingdom of Myanmar and create a huge foundation in just a few years.  Truth and falsehood, love and interests are merged together and cannot be separated at all.  ¡°When something is fake, it is also true, and there is nothing but nothing!¡± Chen Zaixing sighed. Many things in this world cannot be true, otherwise they will only bring trouble to themselves.  Thinking of this, he couldn't help but feel a little dispirited. He closed the folding fan in his hand and said, "Let's go and see how the Tan family's crabs are doing." On the wine table, the cups and plates were already in a mess, and the two maids were carefully removing them from the dining table.  After removing the crab shells piled up as high as a hill and serving the sweet rice wine soup for digestion, Chen Zaixing patted his belly twice and said with a smile: "Brother Du, brother Du, I have never betrayed you today. If you are in trouble someday, please help me."  Don't betray me!" "What this brother said is wrong. Isn't there such a thing as repaying a favor with a favor? Isn't it a little pretentious to repay a favor with a meal?" A voice came from Chen Zaixing.  He heard something coming from behind, and he quickly turned around to see that the person speaking was the son of a fallen salt merchant who was playing with a snuff bottle in the hall just now and turned a deaf ear to him.  At this time, he was bringing the snuff bottle to his nose and looking at himself with a smile.  Chen Zaixing quickly stood up and said with a smile: "My eyes are stupid, I didn't see my brother come in, please forgive me for being rude!" The owner of the shop stuffed the snuff bottle into his purse, cupped his hands and said with a smile: "Brother said  What are you talking about? You are the food, clothing and parents of someone like me, so what's wrong with that? The crabs are pretty good, right?" "Not bad!" Chen Zaixing gestured to Jiang Zhiqing on the side to give him the reward.  , smiled and said: "I have eaten all kinds of crabs in Myanmar, but this is the first time they are cooked so well." "Sorry, there are so many people at home, and I don't care about dignity." The shop owner took it.  He weighed the reward, stuffed it into his arms, and said with a smile: "You said you have been to Myanmar, where do you do business?" "Is that so? Brother, do you know where it is?" Chen Zaixing asked in surprise.  It seems that a son of a run-down salt merchant would not know that there is a country like Myanmar in Southeast Asia.  "I didn't know it at first, but in the past two years, the market in Shanghai has been full of Burmese rice. Even if I don't know, it's difficult!" The shop owner smiled helplessly: "It's just a hardship for the people in Jiangnan. Once Burmese rice comes in, it will also  I don¡¯t know how many well-to-do families have been reduced to extreme poverty. I originally had two farms in the countryside, but now it¡¯s better to give them to tenants and no one will grow them. There is nothing you can do. After a year of hard work, the rice you have grown is not there.  I can¡¯t sell it for the price, hey!¡± At this point, he shook his head with a look of despair on his face.  "Oh?" Chen Zaixing asked calmly: "Then how are you two Zhuangzi doing now?" "What else can I do? I sold it to the head of the village at a discount. I also know that he is up to something, but what can I do?  ? If you sell it to him, you can still get some cash. If you don't sell it to him, you won't even get a grain of rent. Hey, there is no way to live in this world!"  Isn¡¯t the business at Jufengtang very good? Besides, the cheaper rice price is a good thing for you, right?¡±  "Brother, your accent sounds like you are not from Shanghai. What are you doing in Shanghai this time? Do you want to do business or be an eunuch?" "Yes, you do business." "Oh, then I wish my brother a lot of money and everything goes well!"  "The shop owner smiled. Then he looked at Chen Zaixing's face and whispered: "Brother, I have to say something that is inappropriate. I see that you have a rather gloomy look on your face. Why don't you say it and let me hear it?  Anyway, you and I met here by chance, and we will be strangers after today, so you don¡¯t have to worry about me telling you that I¡¯m pregnant with you.¡± Chen Zaixing looked at the shop owner and saw his plump face.  , with thick cheeks, obviously someone who is used to being pampered, but his eyes are quite bright, which is different from the ordinary children of wealthy families.  Seeing this, Chen Zaixing was moved in his heart and said with a smile: "Actually, it's nothing. I have some business in Myanmar and need to use Houde Bank for capital turnover. However, I was a little short of money some time ago. I defaulted on two installments of the loan and took over Houde Bank.  I refused to pay the bill issued by my account. This is what I came to Shanghai to do. " "That's troublesome!" The shop owner's expression changed slightly and he asked, "What does Houde Bank say?"  "The bank said that only if a trustworthy person provides me with a guarantee can it continue to recognize the bills issued by the small account!" "You must not agree!" The shop owner tapped the table: "This is an old trap of the bank.  , as long as you fall into his trap, he will swallow your bones and flesh, so you must not agree to it!""Oh?" Chen Zaixing is not unaware of the disadvantages of guarantees, but it is unusual for the restaurant owner in front of him, a descendant of a run-down salt merchant, to know so well what kind of background this person has. Thinking of this, Chen Zaixing glanced at the people beside him.  Jiang Zhiqing, but Jiang Zhiqing's eyes were also confused.  "Brother, this guarantee is not for nothing. If you give the bank a profit, you will give the guarantor at least six or seven percent. How much profit can you make from doing business? It's all for free for the bank.  That's it. This is still when everything is going well. If there are some setbacks and the bank gets stuck, you will be completely screwed. Then he will buy all your assets at a low price and then sell them at a high price to enjoy huge profits.  . If you make money, he will get free interest, and if you lose money, he can use your property to pay off the debt. You will not suffer any loss, but in my opinion, you would rather not do it if you take the risk.  This business can¡¯t fall into this trap!¡±
