Chapter 39 Jiang Daoming's Invitation

Song Xiao came to the place agreed with Jiang Daoming, only to find that it was a small restaurant hidden in the alley.

There are six or seven tables for four people outside, and three small private rooms are separated inside.

The room Jiang Daoming ordered was a bit crowded for six people.

The environment is okay, clean and warm.

Other than that there's nothing fancy about it.

Jiang Daoming was the only one in the room. Seeing him coming in, he got up enthusiastically and walked over to close the door.

The small shop with few people suddenly became quieter.

"It's just the two of us today." Jiang Daoming skillfully opened a bottle of Maotai-flavored wine wrapped in old tissue paper.

The lid is unscrewed, and the rich aroma of wine wafts out. When pouring into the cup, you can clearly feel the hanging cup.

"Have a good drink and have a good chat!"

Song Xiao sniffed, looked at Jiang Daoming and said, "Uncle Jiang is really willing, this kind of wine is too extravagant if mixed with new wine, so drinking it like this is too wasteful, right?"

Jiang Daoming laughed: "Things that have been hyped too much! How many years of wine are used to drink, not to be displayed there. Drink the right wine with the right person!"

Handed the full wine glass to Song Xiao: "As long as you don't think this place is bad!"

Song Xiao smiled and said, "How could it be, how could Uncle Jiang choose a bad place?"

Jiang Daoming sat down, and said with some emotion: "This is an old shop with a history of several decades. The owner and the chef are alone. It has been passed down from father to son. It seems to be the fifth generation!"

Song Xiao respectfully said, "That's not easy!"

Jiang Daoming nodded: "It's not easy. In fact, this store is not short of money, but the boss can still stick to his original intention and insist on being in charge of the cooking, so the taste of this store has not changed much for decades.

Those who know this place are almost all repeat customers.

My father often brought me here to eat since I was a child. At that time, I didn't have your self-cultivation. I always shouted why I came to such a crappy place?

At that time, the restaurant hadn't been renovated yet, so it was a bit run-down, but after eating it twice, I fell in love with it completely, and even ran away to study here at night..."

At this time, a young man gently knocked on the door and brought in the food.

When people are at the door, the overflowing fragrance will come to the nostrils.

Song Xiao twitched her nose twice, and praised: "It smells so good!"

The young man put the dishes on the table with a smile, and said to Jiang Daoming: "Mr. Jiang, my dad heard that you brought someone over and said that he will bring you a special dish later. It's a coincidence that there is no such ingredient for a long time. "

Jiang Daoming's eyes lit up: "Hey, that's a good relationship, thank your dad for me, ask him to have a drink later, and tell him, I have brought it for more than 40 years..."

The young man swallowed: "Then my dad must be very happy!"

Then he turned to look at Song Xiao, and said with a smile, "Boss Jiang never brings anyone here."

Jiang Daoming waved his hand: "As long as you talk too much, I'll give you a drink later, I brought two bottles today!"

The young man bared his teeth immediately: "Then I won't be polite, thank you Uncle Jiang!"

After a while, six delicious dishes came up quickly.

Jiang Daoming raised his wine glass: "Come on, Xiao Song, let's go!"

Song Xiao also picked up the cup, touched it, and took a sip. The decades-old wine was mellow and sweet in the throat, leaving a fragrance on the lips and teeth.

Compliment: "Good wine!"

Jiang Daoming smiled: "Eat the vegetables, eat them while they are hot, and talk about them later!"

"Okay, then I won't be polite, I will bear it for a long time..."

"Haha, then eat more."

Then the boss came in with his waiter's son, had a chat with Jiang Daoming, drank a glass of wine, and left happily.

It can be seen that Jiang Daoming is really familiar with this store.

The owner of the small shop knew his identity, but he didn't restrain himself, and Jiang Daoming didn't put on airs at all.

Drinking and eating dishes casually, commenting while eating, telling Song Xiao about the origin, materials, production techniques and techniques of each dish.

Like a glutton.

It feels very comfortable.

After drinking a glass of wine, Song Xiao took the initiative to pick up the wine bottle and filled it up for the two of them.

Only then did Jiang Daoming look at Song Xiao with some emotion: "At the beginning, I really didn't expect you to be so good, otherwise I would have to ask Mr. Su to recommend you to me to enter the Heavenly Court...it's boring!"

Song Xiao smiled and said, "I'm actually not that familiar with Mr. Su, and I'm used to being free and undisciplined, so it's more suitable for me to stay in the Heavenly Court."

Jiang Daoming naturally didn't believe that Song Xiao didn't know Mr. Su well.

Mr. Su is extremely prudent, and he will definitely not rashly recommend someone he doesn't know well to protect his daughter.

Especially a handsome young man.

He smiled: "Heavenly Court is actually pretty good." Then he changed the topic, "By the way, Xiao Song, we recently discovered an ancient tomb, and according to various information, it should be the tomb of a great monk.

At present, no other forces have heard of this matter. Are you interested in exploring it together?
Whoever finds the things inside will belong to them, and the practice skills can be shared. "

Thinking of the repeated advice from Lao Wan and those people, and the fact that he has made a lot of money recently, and he is not short of cultivation resources, he subconsciously wants to refuse.

Jiang Daoming looked at him and said, "Don't rush to refuse, let me tell you a story..."

Song Xiao was slightly taken aback, picked up the wine glass and took a sip, and said, "Listen carefully."

Jiang Daoming put down his wine glass, his eyes showed the color of memory, and said: "Our family probably started more than 100 years ago.

The ancestor of the family was a practitioner. You also know something about that era. The country was weak and the people were in dire straits, and foreign powers frantically knocked on our door.

At that time, our family could only be regarded as an ordinary landlord family. Although our ancestors practiced, their realm was not very high.

But be brave!
Once, he took a few brothers and robbed a load of gold and silver that the Sunset Empire earned from selling opium..."

Jiang Daoming admitted frankly that the Jiang family's primitive accumulation stage was indeed not that clean.

But the ancestors have left an ancestral motto since then - no matter when and where, you must remember your origin and blood, no matter where you are, you must not betray your race, and you must not attack your compatriots.

Jiang Daoming looked at Song Xiao and said frankly: "To be honest, I'm not very noble. When I developed and expanded my family in the early years, I did immoral things that harm others and benefit myself.

But always keep in mind the teachings of the ancestors, and have never done anything that harms the race of the country.

Those who cheated were those external forces who already had evil intentions.

So over the years, the Jiang family has had many enemies, but almost all of them are outside.

Of course, there are also inside, but those people..."

There was a sneer on Jiang Daoming's face: "It's just a puppet raised by those demons and goblins, so it's not worth mentioning.

It's just that once the chaebol is formed, it is a monster that eats people.

Any chaebol or ancient power wants to survive forever.

The boss hopes for longevity, and the children of the family want to become better and stronger.

In this way, it is inevitable that good and bad are mixed internally, and it is also necessary to trade and cooperate with multiple forces.

So you say the chaebol are okay?

Not necessarily good.

But it would be biased to say that the chaebols are all bad guys. "

He looked at Song Xiao, and said seriously: "At least I don't have bad intentions for you, Xiao Song. You saved Ying'er's life, and you are also a noble person on her way of cultivation, so don't worry, when you arrive I will never trick you to harm you."

Song Xiao smiled and said, "If I hadn't recognized Uncle Jiang, I wouldn't have come today."

Jiang Daoming smiled, raised his wine glass as a gesture, took a sip, and suddenly asked, "By the way, Xiao Song, what do you think of Ying'er?"

Song Xiao was slightly taken aback, and then said, "Excellent! With a talent like her, the future is limitless!"

Jiang Daoming is also a smart person. Seeing Song Xiao's reaction, he secretly sighed, a little disappointed.

Before, it was purely to protect my daughter, and I didn't think about anything else.

But after seeing Song Xiao's ability and having a certain understanding of his character, he and his wife had other thoughts.

Young, handsome and capable, with a calm and down-to-earth personality, and behind him is a big boss like Mr. Su.

Especially her own daughter doesn't seem to dislike this young senior.

If they could really make a couple, he would be happy to see them.

It's a pity that after a simple test, I found that Song Xiao didn't mean that.

The Jiang family is not a bad family, and their daughter grew up held in the palm of their hand like a jewel in the palm of their hand.

It is also impossible for him to force a sale.

If Song Xiao really showed emotion, he would actually be reluctant.

Anyone who wears my little padded jacket feels bad.

Seeing that Song Xiao had no intentions, Jiang Daoming changed the topic without showing any signs.

Remind Song Xiao: "The Dong family has a deep background and has close contacts with many forces. If you really have any conflicts with them, I can help mediate in the middle."

Song Xiao thought for a while, and said: "The day I first joined the Heavenly Court, the third-level demon in the north of the city was not killed by Wang Peng, but by me. Later, I found out that it was raised by the Dong family."

Jiang Daoming showed a clear look: "No wonder, I still wonder, Wang Peng should not have such a strong combat power. If it is you, then it is not surprising."

Song Xiao said: "Except for this matter, I have no conflicts with the Dong family, so I don't know what they want to settle with me?"

Jiang Daoming said: "The Dong family suffered heavy losses recently, and a large number of monster clans they raised were all killed overnight...Of course, this is just the surface, and almost everyone in the circle knows about it.

But there is also a gossip that the Dong family found a message in the place where the demons were killed. "

Song Xiao froze for a moment.

Jiang Daoming said: "It's written on it—Heavenly Court is not something you want to mess with, you can mess with it if you want!"

Song Xiao was speechless, Brother Kun... Forget it, little Nai Kun is a bastard, if you do it, you can do it, leave your sister's name?
Where did you learn this bad habit?
No wonder the Dong family decided it was related to him.

The only person in Heaven who could have grievances with them was Wang Peng except himself.

And Brother Wang... I'm afraid the Dong family didn't take him seriously at all.

After his battle with the aliens in Nanjiang County, the Dong family probably believed that he was the one who killed the third-level monster.

Now the raised demon was killed, and the second-hand little Nai Kun left a warning message.

It's just yellow mud falling into the crotch, it's either shit or shit.

If Jiang Daoming hadn't revealed the real inside story, Song Xiao would never have guessed that the reason was here.

He said with a helpless face: "This is definitely someone who maliciously framed and framed, not to mention our Deputy Director Zhang and many members of the Dong family are close friends, Mr. Dong and I have also met, drank, and had a happy transaction. Do something like this?"

"Hacking a group of demons in his family, what good will it do me?"

"Besides, even if I want to do it, I have to have that ability..."

Jiang Daoming didn't really believe the last sentence.

But he also felt that Song Xiao was wronged, he didn't have such a strong motive, and he had enough alibi.

I don't know why the Dong family seems to believe that this matter has something to do with Song Xiao.

And what puzzled him the most was that the Dong family actually chose to bow their heads on their own initiative!
Seriously, that's not quite their way of doing things.

Of course, it is also possible that I am really afraid of being tossed.

I can't afford to offend Mr. Su.

Anyway, Song Xiao should have taken the initiative in this matter.

In addition, he also heard that there was something wrong with Tianting a while ago, and Zhang Mingfeng seemed to want to seize power.

Burn incense to invite God!

As a result, for some reason, he died halfway.

I don't know if this incident is also related to the aggrieved young man in front of me.

If it's really related, then Song Xiao's background... is a bit scary.

Thinking in his heart, Jiang Daoming once again sincerely invited Song Xiao to join the team exploring the tomb.

"Ying'er has also successfully established the foundation now, and she will follow along when the time comes."

These words are almost equivalent to telling Song Xiao that I have no other intentions, otherwise it would be impossible for my daughter to follow.

Speaking of this, it is really hard to refuse.

Song Xiao nodded in agreement.

The relationship with the Jiang family has always been good, but there has been no further contact. After observing this time, if there is no problem, part of the property in my hand can be slowly realized through them in the future.

Earn money to buy cultivation resources!

The two finally drank up two bottles of old wine and broke up happily.

Song Xiao didn't go home either, and planned to visit Mr. Su in the courtyard house in Luogu Lane.

Young Master Fusu...it's amazing!

I actually have a relationship with that eldest son of the first emperor through the ages...?
Song Xiao pondered while walking.

The magic weapon given to me is an object used by the tea sage, and the jar made by myself can attract the little Naikun.

Brother Scarecrow is so powerful that he dares to destroy even the thoughts of gods descending from the heavens.

Then my old man... who is it?
Two Jinshi?

Song Xiao shook his head.

Could it be a trumpet opened by some big guy in the world?
