Ji Feng felt that this possibility wasn't small.
Especially when He Hui brought the order personally issued by Chief Hong, or more accurately, it should be one of the tasks entrusted to him by Chief Hong himself. When He Hui arrived at Jiang Prefecture, Ji Feng agreed to follow him south without a second word.
However, before going to Nanyue, Ji Feng paid a special visit to Rong Peng and Rong Suoyan.
At that time, he had made an agreement with Rongpeng that if he succeeded in stopping the cooperation between the Brilliant Group and the j.a.panese, then Rongpeng would do everything in his power to help him.
It was a pity that Ji Feng had failed. He and He Hui had left Guangdong Province dejectedly. Although it could not be said to be a crus.h.i.+ng defeat, at least they had been defeated powerlessly.
Hence, after returning, Ji Feng didn't look for Rongpeng because he felt a bit embarra.s.sed. After all, he was the one who didn't fulfill the agreement.
Of course, there were many unexpected factors that led to Ji Feng's failure. For example, he suddenly met with an attack from the dynasty, and even though he was heavily injured, Bai Zhu was still severely injured. If Zheng Yuanshan did not save him in time, then perhaps he and Bai Zhu would not be able to return.
This was a factor that completely exceeded Ji Feng's expectations.
Ji Feng was also surprised by the resolute att.i.tude of the Wu Clan.
It was as if the Wu Clan was determined to cooperate with the Jings.h.i.+ Group of j.a.pan and was not affected by any interference from the outside world. Even if Ji Feng launched a strong public opinion attack, it would only delay the cooperation of the Wu Clan for a little, but it would not change the final result.
In the end, Ji Feng failed.
Now that Ji Feng thought about it, Rong Peng's lack of confidence in himself was due to him not fulfilling his promise back then. That was why he felt that he wasn't that strong and had lost all confidence in himself.
Or was there another reason?
As his mind raced, Ji Feng thought of many possibilities. However, in the end, he still decided to get straight to the point. "Uncle Rong, was it because I failed to prevent the cooperation between the j.a.panese and the Brilliant Group that you were discouraged?"
Rong Peng shook his head and laughed, "Young Master Ji is overthinking it. It's normal that they can't stop their cooperation. After all, it's a normal business activity, so how could outsiders interfere? "
Ji Feng replied, "Uncle Rong always thought that way. But I, on the other hand, was too arrogant. I thought that there was nothing in this world that I couldn't accomplish, yet I met with a mishap."
Rongpeng shook his head and said, "Actually, your attack is already very powerful. It's just that an unexpected change occurred in the middle, which is why your efforts fell short. However, this is not something you can control. Frankly, if it were me, I wouldn't be able to do this. "
Rongpeng said, "Very few people are able to calmly admit their failures. Young Master Ji's actions are truly admirable."
"Uncle Rong is too kind." Ji Feng smiled as he waved his hand, but in his heart, he couldn't help but sigh.
From this, it could be seen that Rongpeng had always been thinking about this matter.
After carefully considering his words, Ji Feng then said, "Uncle Rong, a failure doesn't mean an eternal failure. Moreover, even if we don't target the Wu Clan, we still have to fight for our own sake, right?"
Rongpeng laughed and shook his head, saying, "Ah! He was old and couldn't fight anymore. "This world belongs to you youngsters. With Young Master Ji's abilities and elegance, it is easy for you to create a world. I believe Young Master Ji will definitely achieve something unprecedented, and I am also looking forward to seeing that day!"
Rongpeng's words were filled with emotion, but it was followed by a sonorous and forceful tone. His eyes were filled with a sense of affirmation and encouragement, but he didn't mention anything about him leaving the mountain. Ji Feng was left speechless.
Ji Feng tried to probe him again and again, but to no avail. Rongpeng did not try to escape, instead, he gave him a direct answer. He was already old and did not want to continue fighting in the mountains.
Ji Feng could only silently accept this. Since Rongpeng said he couldn't fight anymore, he couldn't possibly let him go fight him head on, right?
Hence, Ji Feng no longer talked about asking Rongpeng to come out of the sect. He didn't even talk about the plan he had thought of last night.
Hence, the two of them continued with their idle chatter. Ji Feng consulted Reng Peng about some of his business experiences as well as the things that happened back then. These were all extremely valuable treasures, and Ji Feng was able to learn many things from them.
After she went upstairs to change her clothes, she also came down to sit beside her father and chat with Ji Feng.
After sending Ji Feng off, Reng Peng and his father returned to the main hall.
"He wants me to come out again." Rong Peng said with a smile.
Rong Su Yan was startled: "Leaving the mountain? He wants you to come out and work again? "
Rong Peng said with a smile.
"Then did you agree to his request?"
Rong Luo Yan pursed her lips and smiled, "Dad, do you really not want to leave the mountain?"
Rongpeng laughed, "I can't do it anymore. Pure Yan, in the future, this family will depend on you to support them. You must work harder."
"Isn't it only right to raise you and my mom!" Rong Su Yan said, "However, I feel that you are still very young, so you plan to retire already? This isn't good. "
"What? You still want your dad to go out and mess around?" Rong Peng said.
"Little girl, you really think too highly of your father."
Rong Peng smiled as he shook his head and said, "How much pressure can one additional person bring to the Wu family? "You have seen what happened a while ago. Wu Clan endured so much pressure, and in the end, didn't they still manage to resist the pressure and sell their projects and resources to j.a.pan?"
Rong Luo Yan asked, "Then … Are you worried that Ji Feng will not be able to win against the Wu Clan? "
Rong Luo Yan asked hesitantly, "Dad, did you retreat?"
Rong Luo Yan couldn't help but be silent.
She had to admit that her father was right. After leaving South Guangdong and coming to Jiangzhou, they had no foundation.
"Dad, I don't think that's right." Rong Su Yan said, "Leaving Guangdong Province is indeed causing us to lose our foundation, but it also means that we have no other way out. We can only move forward and keep moving forward! "
"I do!" Rong Su Yan said.
Rong Peng was startled, "What?"
He looked at his daughter, only to see her leave. Rong Peng couldn't help but ask, "Where are you going?"
"... "This child!"
Seeing Rong Su Yan leave with a slightly hurried pace, Rong Peng was momentarily at a loss. However, his eyes were a bit unsteady.
Ji Feng also did not expect that Rong Su Yan would catch up with him. Bai Zhu had already started the car, but he saw her in the rearview mirror.
"Young Master Ji, Miss Rong is here." White Pearl said.
"Hmm?"
He jumped off the car and saw that Rong Suiyan had arrived before him, breathing rapidly. Perhaps it was because she was walking in a hurry, but her hair was slightly messy, giving her a unique charm.
"Ji Feng, I want to talk to you." Rong Luo Yan said.
Ji Feng happily nodded. He got along well with Rong Luoyan, and he also wanted to inquire about Rong Peng's thoughts and plans from her.
