Chapter 460 - Arrival at Jinling
The next morning, Ji Feng and the others drove to Jinling, the ancient city.Jinling was not far from Jiang Prefecture. Driving a car was like driving for two hours. If the car slowed down, it might take longer, but it would only take three hours.
Although they were very close, Jin"ling"s status was not affected by the Jiang Prefecture at all.
Logically speaking, as the center of China"s economy, Jiang Zhou could be said to be unique. At the very least, the surrounding cities would all be under the influence of the Jiang Prefecture and it would be difficult for them to surpa.s.s it.
But Jinling was very special. As the most dazzling first-tier city in the Eastern region of China, the ancient capital of Jinling was definitely a very heavy city.
In the eyes of some merchants, Jinling held a special position.
Jinling was the first place to start the East China Strategy.On one hand, Ji Feng and the others were going to Jinling to visit Li Yueqin and Li Yantong, and on the other hand, they wanted to explore the market.
Xiao Yu rarely went far away. Even if she came to Jiang Prefecture from Yan Jing, she would only come here by plane and rarely had the opportunity to enjoy the scenery along the way. This time, Xiao Yu was the most excited. Along the way, she kept asking Ji Feng what kind of place this was, and where it was …
"Xiao Yu, do you like the scenery that much?" Tong Lei asked."That"s right, I love travelling, but I don"t dare to go anywhere by myself. Sister-in-law, if you want to go anywhere in the future, remember to bring me along!" Xiao Yu grabbed onto Tong Lei"s hand and said fawningly.
Tong Lei smiled and nodded.
"Little girl, why would I take you out to play?" To be an electric light bulb?! " Ji Shalei smiled."You"re the light bulb!" Ji Xiaoyu wrinkled her nose.
Ji Feng and the others started laughing. Xiao Yu was just like a little child, she was extremely adorable.
Because Ji Feng, Xiao Yu Xuan, Tong Lei and Xiao Yu were all sitting in Ji Shaoru"s Mercedes-Benz, their conversation was quite convenient.The three people of White Spider, Little Shadow, and Han Zhen were naturally in Ji Feng"s BMW X6. As they were leading the way, they would not disturb Ji Feng and the others.
"Xiao Yu, since you like to travel so much, you can find a boyfriend who"s nice to you. You can drive to travel by yourself, and you can go wherever you want when the time comes." "Time flies. In the blink of an eye, Xiao Yu, that little slug, has already become a big girl!"
"Second Brother, you"re the worst!"
Ji Xiaoyu was greatly dissatisfied. "You"re the little slug!""Hahaha …" Ji Feng and the rest could not help but laugh, and even Tong Lei was moved by Xiao Yu"s cuteness, and could not help but pat her on the head.
Ji Feng suddenly thought of something and asked, "Xiao Yu, did you fall in love at school?"
"I didn"t!" Xiao Yu immediately said, "Those boys are like children. All they think about is how to play and how to spend money. They all seem to be very capable, but in fact, they don"t know anything." I want to find a boyfriend like big brother and third brother! ""This is bad!" "Then the chances of you finding it are practically zero."
"Why?!" Ji Xiaoyu was instantly infuriated.
"Do you think that there are people like Big Brother and Little Three everywhere? I wonder how many years it will take before I can find one like them!" Ji Shalei laughed, "Xiao Yu, why don"t you consider lowering your standards? Finding a second brother like this is already not bad!"
"I don"t want it!" Ji Xiaoyu said, "People like you will have their legs broken if I were to bring them home!""Little girl, what are you saying!"
Ji Shalei was immediately angered. "Is second brother really that unbearable in your eyes?"
"Look, you"re still so stingy. I can"t even say a single word..." Ji Xiaoyu wrinkled her nose at Ji Shalei. Ji Shaorei was so angry that she almost drove her car into the fence at the side of the road.
Xiao Yu Xuan and Tong Lei couldn"t help but chuckle. Only Xiao Yu would dare to speak to Ji Shalei in such a manner, even if he wasn"t angry.With Xiao Yu in the car, the atmosphere wouldn"t turn cold.
"Xiao Yu, are you still in touch with Kuangwei?" Ji Feng suddenly asked.
"Ah?!""Ah what? You"re still in contact?" Ji Feng asked.
Ji Xiaoyu hurriedly shook her head, "No, no. Ever since you got angry at his coffee shop, we haven"t been in contact!"
Ji Feng smiled but didn"t say anything else.In fact, as far as he could remember, that Conway had been okay, except for the extremely sn.o.bbish mother, and the young man had been okay. But from the looks of it, he didn"t even dare to look for Xiaoyu anymore. Even if they were to be together in the future, he probably wouldn"t even dare to enter her house.
"San-er, who is this Kuangwei you"re talking about?" Ji Shaorei asked.
"He"s a young man who used to have a good impression of Xiaoyu." Ji Feng laughed, "At that time, Xiaoyu used her holiday to do odd jobs in the cafe at that young man"s house, and the two of them got to know each other. I don"t know how this developed, but that guy"s mother was too sn.o.bbish, and got scared by me …"
Ji Feng briefly recounted what had happened at that time without specifying the details. He only gave a brief summary of the reasons and the results.Ji Shaorei shook his head. "A family like this … "Even if they really succeed in the future, I reckon …"
He smiled and did not continue.
However, Xiao Yu hurriedly said, "You"ve all misunderstood, I"m just friends with Kuangwei!"
The few of them were immediately overjoyed. As children, they didn"t know what love was. Who knew, maybe they were just friends.However, his words seemed to have sobered Ji Feng up.
Xiao Yu had already become a big girl. In the future, there would definitely be boys chasing after her at school. It seemed that they had to check on her properly. Otherwise, they really wouldn"t be able to explain themselves to her little uncle.
Of course, it was good that Xiao Yu was more obedient. If it were those rebellious kids, Ji Feng might not be able to persuade them.
… ….
Shortly after ten in the morning, Ji Feng and the others entered Jinling City. According to Ji Shaodong"s location, they settled down at a place called Jinli Hotel. The office building in Jinling Road, where Ji Shaodong was located, was only a few stops away, which was very convenient.
It didn"t take long for Ji Shaodong to arrive."Big brother!"
When they saw Ji Shaodong, Ji Feng and the others all greet him. Xiao Yu Xuan and Tong Lei also greeted Ji Shaodong very politely, but because they weren"t too familiar with each other, they didn"t say much.
"Alright, alright!" Ji Shaodong pounded on Ji Feng"s chest. "You"ve grown stronger. You"re taller than me!"
Ji Feng laughed, "I haven"t grown in over a year!"
"Brat …" Ji Shaodong couldn"t help but start laughing, "Yu Xuan, Lei Lei, you two take a seat, us brothers will talk, you don"t have to be restrained."
Tong Lei nodded slightly and sat on the sofa.
Seeing how natural Tong Lei was, Xiao Yu Xuan couldn"t help but be slightly startled before she followed and sat down.
In this kind of situation, Xiao Yu Xuan still watched Tong Lei"s actions.Naturally, Ji Shaodong could see their movements. He gave Ji Feng a big thumbs up, thinking to himself, "San-er"s really capable!"
"Brother, let"s sit down and talk!" When Ji Feng saw Ji Shaodong"s expression, he couldn"t help but laugh.
As they sat down, the spider quickly poured water for them. Ji Shaodong couldn"t help but glance at him a few more times, as if he had some doubts. However, since there were so many people, he didn"t say anything.
As for Ji Feng, he discovered that after a long period of absence, his elder brother had become more composed and dignified. When he sat there, a sense of majesty naturally emanated from him.This is a kind of atmosphere cultivated by someone who has been on the upper side for a long time. It can be seen that in Jinling, big brother has a lot of authority!
"Big brother!"
At this moment, Xiao Yu tidied up her room and ran over. "Big brother, you"re even more handsome now."
Ji Shaodong laughed. "Little girl, when did you learn to speak so sweetly?"
Little Yu giggled and sat between Tong Lei and Xiao Yu Xuan.
"Brother, how is the development going here?" After the pleasantries, Ji Feng asked about Ji Shaodong"s work. A while ago, he had asked his big brother to help him divulge the news due to Chang Chongwei"s affair. It was unknown if it had affected him.
Ji Shaodong laughed. "How should we put it? There is no such thing as smooth sailing, especially when it comes to traveling on the path of an official.""Jiangnan is one of the more important provinces in East China. Jinling is also the capital of Jiangnan. It has always been a place where every military power strives for power. That should be the case as well." Ji Feng nodded his head, "Given such an important position, there is no reason for the various factions not to fight for it. I presume that this is a place where both factions are at odds!"
There were several places in China that had always been a place of no return. Whether it was the military or the major factions, this was the case.
For example, Jiang Zhou, Nan Yue, the heavyweight province of East China, Jiang Nan Province, etc. These places were indeed intertwined and entangled by various forces. It could be said to be quite troublesome.
Ji Shaodong nodded approvingly. "That"s right. It"s very difficult to get any results here, but it"s too easy to make a mistake. I don"t know how many pairs of eyes are staring at you. It"s a good place to hone yourself!"
It seemed that his big brother had also encountered some troublesome problems. Otherwise, he would not have said such words. Seeing this, Ji Feng thought to himself.
Ji Feng laughed, "I believe that with big brother"s wisdom, these small waves will definitely not be able to trouble you.""Brat, you"ve learnt to flatter!" Ji Shaodong laughed.
Ji Feng chuckled before asking again, "That"s right big brother, where"s my sister-in-law? Why didn"t she bring her along?""She"s still at work, she"ll definitely come over at dinner time!" Ji Shaodong said, "San-er, do you plan to rest now, or go to Auntie Li"s place?"
"I"m not tired yet. Let"s go visit Auntie Li first, otherwise it would be impolite to wait until the afternoon!" Ji Feng said.
"That"s right, it"s not appropriate to go in the afternoon." Ji Shalei nodded as he spoke."Alright, let"s go together. I"ve prepared the present, it"s in the car." Ji Shaodong said.
"Big Bro"s consideration is indeed thoughtful!" Ji Feng laughed. In his heart, he was still full of admiration. When it came to etiquette, his elder brother was even more considerate than them. They were obviously not on the same level, and Ji Feng had learnt many things.
