Chapter 6 Chapter Five Wisdom Contest
There is a very famous "family dining room" in Mexico City, which is garden-style.The dining room is semi-outdoor and surrounded by the garden. All the seats are separated by flower sheds. There are double seats and long dining tables for banquets.
In the center of the garden is the fountain. The artificial fountain has colorful lights. Around the fish pond, there are various Chinese and foreign bonsai, planted with exotic flowers and plants, and the atmosphere is very beautiful.All dining tables are by candlelight.In the dining room, there is a band specially hired to entertain the guests, and they will play in front of the table according to the call of the customers.
Luo Tuo held a banquet in this restaurant to clean up his adopted son Xia Luohong.The accompanying guests are Chang Laoyao, Aunt Cha, Sun Aqi, and Peng Hu, a strong man from the Jianghu. Luo Tuo took the opportunity to discuss the plan of stealing treasures with everyone.
The camel reserved a place for a big table, and left two tables on either side of it empty. They used the way of family dining, and the empty table was used to set dishes, and the other was filled with all kinds of fine wines.
Although this is a bit like a grandpa's style, it can prevent "the wall has ears" and not be afraid that people at the tables on both sides will eavesdrop on their conversation.
Luo Tuo first explained the host of his bet with the upstart Lin Bian-shui. The bet was one hundred thousand dollars on the gains and losses of the treasures stolen in Mexico City.
Camel said: "It sounds almost absurd at first, but if a person's mind is stopped for too long and does not use it, it will easily decay and degenerate; this matter was very interesting from the beginning, because we have two extremely strong The opponents have arrived, one is the 'old fox' Qiu Yisen, he is a watchdog for the treasure exhibition of the fair; the other is Zuo Luntai, who is known as the 'world's number one shooter', he seems to have come here to steal the treasure..."
Xia Luohong said to his adoptive father: "It doesn't matter if you fight wits with the old fox Qiu Yisen, you can win or lose with your wits! Success or failure can be ended with a laugh, just to hurt your peace! Zuo Luntai is a famous gunman. If you fight with a gunman, it's like It's impossible!"
The camel said: "If we don't play guns with him, won't we get it?"
Xia Luohong said: "But Zuo Luntai started out playing with guns. In the end, can he not use guns?"
"Any gunslinger, don't hit people who don't have equipment! Zuo Luntai is famous for his marksmanship, so he won't be disobedient to the morals of the world?"
"The dog jumps over the wall in a hurry, if you are forced to rush, it's hard to say!"
Luo Tuo waved his hand, telling Xia Luohong to just rest assured, he took out a roll of negatives, took a magnifying glass and told Xia Luohong to look at it.
"What is this?" Xia Luohong asked.
"This is the electronic anti-theft design blueprint for the Temple of Heaven Treasures Exhibition!" Camel said.
"How did you get it?"
"The contractor of this project is the 'Roche & Sons Electromechanical Engineering Company'. The father of the company is an expert, and the son is an 'embroidered pillow'. He is very happy and loves to show off. Chang's youngest has a god-sister named He Xini. She went to 'Roche & Sons Electronics' Mechanical Engineering Company' went to visit their designs, and the playboy brought out all the design blueprints like a treasure, and He Xini took pictures of them one by one with a pocket camera while he was not paying attention!"
Xia Luohong scratched her scalp and said, "If you can get it, I believe Zuo Luntai can get it too. At the same time, 'Old Fox' Qiu Yisen is an old Jiang Hu, so he hasn't considered this issue?"
The camel nodded, giggled, and said, "Considering that the problem with this electronic anti-theft project is trivial, the problem is how to deal with it, which requires wisdom!"
Xia Luohong took a closer look with a magnifying glass and said, "How about the content?"
The youngest Chang explained: "There are six electric eyes around the exhibition hall, monitoring the movement of tourists in all directions. There is a glass cover weighing more than a ton on the treasure exhibition stand, and its weight matches the load of the exhibition stand. If it is serious or light, the alarm bells in the audience will go off."
"Is it completely controlled by electricity?" Xia Luohong asked.
"Yes!" The youngest Chang said.
Xia Luohong rolled her eyes and said, "If there is a power outage, won't all the electronic engineering equipment in the venue, including the alarm bell, be ineffective?"
The camel applauded, raised its thumbs, giggled and said, "Xia Luohong has improved, who said that the talent of the camel has no successor? Our inspiration is exactly the same!"
The youngest Chang said: "Mexico City is a modern city with a well-developed power system. It may not be easy for it to have a power outage!"
The camel said with a smile: "The United States is the country with the most developed electricity, and there was a power outage that paralyzed dozens of cities in the entire south for half a day and night. Do you think it is strange?"
"According to your plan, it should be artificial!" said the youngest Chang.
"This is not a very difficult thing!"
"Then how do you deal with the armed guards present? If there is a power outage, they will be even more vigilant!" The youngest Chang said again.
"Treasure stealing only takes a few tens of seconds. We can drive them away or attract their attention to other areas!" Camel said.
"Create another incident? Or use 'Roche & Sons Electro-Mechanical Engineering'?"
"For example, the Mongolian barbecue restaurant next door has a special accidental fire insurance. We don't need to set fire to it. Just burn him a stink bomb in the stove, and that's enough!" Luo Tuo said.
"Does it only take tens of seconds to steal treasure?" Aunt Zha was a little disbelieving, and interrupted: "You said it too easily, right?"
"Lift up the glass cover to take it out, dozens of seconds are enough!" Camel said.
"Didn't you say the glass cover weighs a ton?" she asked again.
"Peng Hu is a strong man, with two arms that are as strong as a thousand catties. What is a ton-heavy glass cover to him? Sun Aqi is as light as a swallow. He only needs to open a gap to get into it Now, take out the treasure, put the counterfeit in its place, and sneak out, I think thirty seconds is enough!" Luo Tuo said with a smile.
Xia Luohong was even more interested, and said, "Are you ready to replace it with a counterfeit?"
The camel nodded and said, "This is very necessary in order to allow the treasures to be transported out of the country calmly!"
"Is the counterfeit custom made?"
"Mr. Wu Ce is designing according to the drawings, and it will be delivered within the estimated time!"
The youngest Chang is very satisfied with Luotuo's treasure-robbing plan, but he raises new questions. "Brother Luo, if you can think of the blackout move, will your opponent Qiu Yisen or Zuo Luntai also think of this move?"
"Chou Yisen and Zuo Luntai have to try to restrain them, I think Xia Luohong arrived in Mo City, Qiu Yisen greeted him at the airport in person, obviously trying to win over him, then you spend all your time fooling around with him and restrain him. To deal with Zuo Luntai, I want to use He Xini!"
"Zuo Luntai's adoptive daughter Guan Renmei arrived in Mocheng. His daughter has always regarded her adoptive father as a lover, and she is very jealous. It may not be appropriate for He Xini to pester him!" The youngest Chang made a suggestion and said .
"Using softness to overcome rigidity is the best way!" Luo Tuo said, "Zuo Luntai is extremely intelligent and his marksmanship is unparalleled in the world, but he has a problem. He has a good sex. Except for his adopted daughter Guan Renmei, he is too shy to use his brains." In addition, he will be interested in any woman who has a bit of beauty, and there are many scandals in his life, and he is often defeated by women, which is the so-called "hero is saddened by beauty"!"
"Since Zuo Luntai is a pervert, if He Xini is to pester him, wouldn't it be the same as 'sending a sheep to a tiger'?" Xia Luohong said.
"If He Xini doesn't even have this 'dao xing', if we absorb her, we will collapse ourselves!" Luo Tuo said.
"I always think that using beauty tricks is a very dishonest method!" said the youngest Chang.
Xia Luohong has always regarded herself as suave and suave. When she mentioned He Xini, she aroused her interest again, and said, "How does He Xini look like? Do we have a chance to meet?"
The camel warned: "Xia Luohong, you and Zuo Luntai both have the same problem, don't fall into it yourself, that would be a big joke!"
Aunt Cha has always disliked Xia Luohong's flirting outside, because Xia Luohong's fiancée recognized her as a godmother, so she said in a sarcasm: "Other people can be insured, but Xia Luohong can't control anyone else." !"
Luo Tuo said with a serious face: "If it was an ordinary case, we would fail and get away with it. This time, we encountered the strongest opponents. Zuo Luntai and Qiu Yisen are both famous figures in the world. In their hands, a lifetime of fame is ruined, and eight lifetimes will never turn them around!"
Xia Luohong smiled quickly and said, "Father, don't be angry, I'm just joking!"
The camel said: "You often make fakes come true, I can't do anything to you!"
Xia Luohong said again: "However, I still don't understand. Since the adoptive father has such great concerns about Qiu Yisen and Zuo Luntai, why did he choose them as opponents?"
"Boy, this is also a good opportunity for you to become famous. If you can defeat Qiu Yisen and Zuo Luntai, you will be a thunderbolt!"
"It doesn't matter whether you become famous or not in this respect. It must not honor your ancestors. On the contrary, the more famous you are, the more trouble you will cause yourself, and you will be treated differently everywhere!" Xia Luohong said.
"No prospect!" Luo Tuo said in a reproachful tone, "You have talent and skills, so why are you afraid that someone will find you a rival?"
Xia Luohong retorted, saying: "Zuo Luntai is nicknamed 'the number one shooter in the world', and when he gets angry, he will also challenge you for a gun. Father, even if you are more talented and witty, you will not be Zuo Luntai's opponent. !"
The camel was not happy, and said: "If you don't compete with him, won't you be fine?"
"Wouldn't it be shameful not to accept the challenge?"
"Anyway, we won't do anything rough!"
When Aunt Zha saw that their father and son were arguing, she said, "It's useless to talk nonsense, when shall we do it?"
"I'm still planning, until the time when Qiu Yisen and Zuo Luntai are sure to restrain each other!"
At the same time, in a Chinese-style "Sanyuan Restaurant" near the "Manshan Farm" sugar factory, Zuo Luntai, his adopted daughter Guan Renmei, and his girlfriend Zhu Daishi were also studying the plan to steal treasure. The owner of this restaurant, Lei Mingtong, was originally a foreman of the sugar factory on the farm. He opened this restaurant as a speculative business, and all transactions depended on the care of the sugar factory employees.Now, there is a dispute between the Zhu family and General Mengoli's mansion, the sugar factory has stopped working, the employees have been dismissed, and the restaurant has naturally closed. For the sake of convenience, Zuo Luntai rented the second floor of "Sanyuan Restaurant" as a place to rest. Zhu's furniture had been moved by Zhu Zhai, and it was quite decently arranged. Lei Mingtong didn't live in the "Three Yuan Hotel" after the restaurant closed. He left his youngest daughter, Lei Lanlan, to take care of Zuo Luntai's daily life and food. Lei Lanlan is seventeen years old, fair and exquisite, lively and cute, Zuo Luntai is very satisfied, at least his boring treasure robbery plan is in progress, life has been adjusted, and sometimes making Lei Lanlan happy can eliminate many problems lonely. But after Guan Renmei arrived, the situation was different. Guan Renmei was not pleasing to the eye when she saw Lei Lanlan. Lan came. "You are nearly fifty years old, seducing underage girls, this is not a joke!" After seeing Lei Lanlan, she looked at the surrounding environment and immediately warned Zuo Luntai. Zuo Luntai was very annoyed, and said, "You are not very old, why do you see all the dirty things in your eyes?" "Maybe it's because I've watched you too much!" "Nonsense, I, Zuo Luntai, have always walked steadily and stood upright!" Zuo Luntai was said to be worthless by his daughter in front of Zhu Daishi, and he was so angry that he wanted to beat someone up. "Lonely men and widows live in the same room, and Zuo Luntai is unwilling to be lonely. Imagine if the little sheep in the tiger's den will turn into a snack sooner or later? It should be called 'love's dessert'!" "Bah! That's why I'm not happy that you came to Mocheng!" "Because I'm the thorn in your eye!" "I'm planning to steal treasure. If you only destroy me instead of helping me, I'll send you home!" Guan Renmei waved her hand playfully and said, "Don't become angry because I saw through your mind. Of course I came here to help you steal the treasure. Even if I go through fire and water, I will not hesitate!" Zuo Luntai said: "This is the biggest enemy I have encountered in my life!" Guan Renmei said: "Since this is the case, no matter whether you succeed or fail in stealing treasure, the first thing to do is to offend others and hurt the harmony of the world!" "But the difficulties in Zhu Dai's family must be resolved!" "Aside from stealing treasure, is there no second way?" Zuo Luntai said: "As far as I know, General Mengoli's minions are deceiving. Only stealing treasures can shock Mocheng, showing that someone can stand up for the Zhu family and force General Mengoli to come forward to negotiate in person! He is a A good man, he considers himself a philanthropist, he pays attention to justice in everything, if the matter of 'Manshan Farm' can be revealed in front of him, I believe it will be easy to solve!" Guan Renmei sneered again, and said, "Do you think it's easy to steal treasure? That's the world-famous 'World Expo'!" "If there were no two groups of Luo Tuo and Qiu Yisen to disturb it, it would be effortless!" "Speak wild words!" Guan Renmei's nonchalant speech made Zuo Luntai furious, forcing him to yell out sternly. Zhu Daishi was always in fear, and now she interjected: "Brother Tai has always seen everything too simple..." She unfolded a self-drawn picture in her hand, pointed and said: "Look, this exhibition venue is surrounded by There are many soldiers and police, and the venue is equipped with electronic anti-theft equipment. If you are not careful, the alarm bells will ring loudly..." Guan Renmei hurriedly snatched the drawing for a closer look, and murmured, "An electronic anti-theft device?" "Isn't it? The design of the 'Roche & Sons Electromechanical Engineering Company', Brother Tai asked me to go to the company to ask how to install anti-theft equipment. That Mr. Luo was obsessed with sex, and he took out the design blueprint of the exhibition venue." , I memorized for several hours before I wrote down all the important items!" Zhu Daishi said very worriedly. Guan Renmei laughed after seeing the drawing, and said: "I know what kind of tricks are in Zuo Luntai's belly, he is not afraid of electronic anti-theft devices!" Zuo Luntai said: "Huangmao girl, tell me what's on my mind!" "Without electricity, wouldn't the electronic anti-theft equipment be useless?" Guan Renmei said. "Is there a power outage?" Zhu Daishi asked. "Cut off the power!" Guan Renmei said. Zuo Luntai nodded and said, "The girl has improved!" Guan Renmei added: "But the circuits around the exhibition hall are buried underground, so it's not easy for you to cut off its power supply!" "It will always have controls and switches on the ground!" "I'm afraid it will take a lot of trouble!" "Win with wisdom, don't be afraid of setbacks!" "However, there are dense guards inside and outside the exhibition hall. When the power fails, they will definitely be more vigilant!" Guan Renmei said. "Of course we must send them away!" "Do you already have a draft in your stomach?" Zuo Luntai scratched his head and said, "The exhibition of treasures in the World Expo is not limited to one country, but also several places where 'treasures are discovered'. We can make a big difference and start in other places first..." Guan Renmei shook her head and said, "However, the security guards employed by each unit are different. Everyone 'sweeps the snow in front of the door', you can't do anything about it!" "If there was a fight, the situation might be different," Zuo Luntai said. "Are you going to use force?" "What's the point of acting? You have to make him 'turn upside down'!" Zhu Daishi was still terrified. She always believed that things would not be as simple as Zuo Luntai imagined, and the people who held the exhibition were definitely not fools. "Zuo Luntai, you have neglected one thing!" Guan Renmei suddenly raised a finger, pointing at the tip of Zuo Luntai's nose mischievously: "You will consider the method of power failure and disable the electronic anti-theft device. The two opponents, Qiu Yisen and Luo Tuo, wouldn't they have thought of this move?" This sentence hit Zuo Luntai's mind, Na Na said: "The ones I hate are these two people!" Zhu Daishi said: "Qiu Yisen is helping the exhibition hall. If he can think of the power outage, he will naturally think of other preventive methods!" Guan Renmei said: "The camel has a lot to do with it. He has many capable people under his command. As long as one person is allocated to deal with you, you will be overwhelmed!" "I should have a way to deal with them!" Zuo Luntai said. "Can you make enemies in every direction?" Zuo Luntai said: "My nickname is 'The World's Number One Shooter', and they are all afraid of my marksmanship, so, before stealing treasure, I will challenge them to compete with my marksmanship..." Guan Renmei giggled and said, "This is a means of intimidation!" Zuo Luntai said: "Use my strengths to deal with their weaknesses, this is where I excel!" "Don't forget, Qiu Yisen is also a sharpshooter!" Guan Renmei reminded him. "I'm a class above him, and Qiu Yisen dare not try it! Especially when it comes to camels, he is the world's number one swindler. He has a very well-developed brain and superior wisdom. He won't do life gambling, at least, I can scare them off, maybe one less enemy!" Guan Renmei still poured cold water on Zuo Lun Tai, saying: "However, Xia Luohong, Luo Tuo's adopted son, is also an expert with guns. I heard that he can also shoot out candles within a hundred steps!" Zuo Luntai was very proud, waved his hands and said, "Hmph, compared to me, that's nothing!" Suddenly, Zuo Luntai's eyes widened, shining with a strange brilliance, he took out his hand, and the revolver pinned under his arm was already in his hand, he gave a light hiss to Guan Renmei and Zhu Daishi with his pointing lips. what happened?Did Revolver discover anything special? On the land of "Manshan Farm", in a "Sanyuan Hotel" that has closed down and no one knows about it, will there be anything worthy of a sword? I saw Zuo Luntai turn around, and slipped into the room that he used as his bedroom.He must have heard some strange sound, that's why he acted like this. He tiptoed to the window, where a long velvet curtain was covering a row of long windows. Zuo Luntai suddenly pulled the curtain open, and with a push of his hand, a window was also pushed open. There was a person standing outside the window, just facing Zuo Luntai. "Qiu Yisen..." Zuo Luntai was a little excited, blushing and crying out in surprise. "I came here to pay a visit, but you actually treat the guests with guns?" Qiu Yisen acted quite calmly, holding the window frame with both hands, and was about to lift his foot to step into the window. "A special visit? Are you going to peek at my residence by flying over the eaves, climbing the walls and windows and hiding outside the eaves?" Zuo Luntai was wondering in his heart that Qiu Yisen would actually find the "Three Yuan Hotel" in Manshan Farm. Qiu Yisen stretched out his hand and flicked the dirt off his body. "Zuo Luntai, out of good intentions, I specially brought back the rental car you left at the airport!" When he said this, Zuo Luntai suddenly realized that it was the so-called "everything must be lost." Qiu Yisen relied entirely on the help of Wallace Fanlun's two assistants. He figured out that Zuo Luntai would definitely come in his own car, so he asked Scott and Williams to take turns guarding the parking lot and gradually register the cars coming and going. Wallace Van Lun, in addition to taking notes, took a picture every ten minutes or so.After checking, it was found that there were a total of two cars in the parking lot that had not been moved.One is a transportation vehicle of a private airline company, which was out of service due to breakdown and disrepair; the other is a small sports car "Osmobile", which was found to be a taxi belonging to "Single Car Rental Company". After further investigation, the renter was Miss Lei Lanlan from the "Three Yuan Hotel" of Manshan Farm. Qiu Yisen got a report and identified Zuo Luntai as the "Three Yuan Hotel" hiding in Manshan Farm. It is not difficult to prepare a key, so he boldly drove the small "Osmobile" sports car to "Manshan Farm". Qiu Yisen had entered the room through the window, and pushed the muzzle of the revolver in Zuo Luntai's hand. "Is it Zuo Luntai's usual style to treat visitors at gunpoint?" Zuo Luntai laughed loudly and said, "Then Brother Qiu, what did you do here?" "It's still an old saying, I advise you to give up stealing treasure!" "Are you sure I'm here to steal treasure?" "Zuo Luntai has always been upright, but suddenly he has a secretive move, and his intention is very obvious!" Zuo Luntai clasped the revolver on his fingers several times, twisted his hand, the gun returned to its sheath, and said, "What if I don't accept your suggestion?" "Friends become enemies, and I will become your opponent!" Qiu Yisen said with a shrug. Zuo Luntai applauded and said, "Okay, I finally found a strong opponent!" Guan Renmei was worried that they would clash face to face, so she held her belly together with both hands, giggled, and said, "You two can be said to be meddling with meddling!" Qiu Yisen waved his hand to Guan Renmei and said, "When the road is uneven, it is a common problem for meddlers to draw their swords to help each other, but how can this have anything to do with stealing treasure?" Guan Renmei said: "In the world, there are often many unbelievable things, and it is because of this that they are related. Who said that the two treasures displayed at the expo belong to General Mengoli..." "Guan Renmei, I forbid you to continue talking!" Zuo Luntai scolded. Guan Renmei didn't think so, and said: "Chou Yisen has come here from a long way, with a serious face, I believe he is just meddling in business, so why don't we tell the truth? Let's see which of you two is meddling in business." The weight is heavy, so there is always one side that can give up or make concessions, which is a very open and aboveboard approach!" Qiu Yisen nodded and praised: "Miss Guan is beautiful, and she speaks beautifully!" Therefore, Guan Renmei opened the entire curtain, pointed out the window and said, "When you entered the 'Manshan Farm', you could already see the entire farm in ruins, as if some natural or man-made disaster had happened?" Qiu Yisen said: "I'm wondering, it's the time for spring plowing preparations, why the farm seems to have stopped work? It seems that last year's harvest has not been processed!" Guan Renmei said: "From this window, there is a very conspicuous building, and there is only an empty body left. Can you tell the reason?" Qiu Yisen frowned, and said: "It was a disaster of returning home, and it was burned to the ground, leaving only an empty frame. It looks like a factory!" Guan Renmei introduced Zhu Daishi, saying: "This is Miss Zhu, the third-generation owner of 'Manshan Farm'. 'Manshan Farm' is adjacent to General Mengoli's mansion. Fighting against the situation.” Under the unfavorable conditions of the time and place, the Zhu family violated the above two commandments, so the family was scattered and died. The factory is owned by General Mongoli. Miss Zhu’s brother, because of reasoning, Unfortunately, the shotgun went off and burned the factory to the ground. My grandfather died in a fit of anger. My father was hit by General Mongoli's lackeys and his legs were broken. He is still receiving medical treatment in the United States. He was seriously injured at such a young age and is still recuperating on the sickbed. .My brother is in prison, and his property has been frozen again. This farm is about to fall into the property of General Mongoli's mansion..." Qiu Yisen bowed sadly to Zhu Daishi and said, "I am very sad to hear this story; but what does it have to do with stealing treasure?" "The exhibited treasures belong to General Mengoli, and Zuo Luntai plans to retaliate and give him an earth-shattering counterattack, so as to demand fair negotiations!" Guan Renmei said. "I don't understand!" Qiu Yisen shook his head and said, "According to legend, General Mengoli is a famous philanthropist in Mexico City, and he is very popular. He is definitely not the bully you described!" "The good people in the noble ivory tower are often deceived by their subordinates. There is no good heart, and the bad things are done by the subordinates. Ordinary people want to meet with General Mengoli and express their feelings face to face. It's still hard to reach the sky..." "Then after trying to steal the treasure, are you negotiating face to face with General Mengoli in a grand robber's manner?" Qiu Yisen asked. Zuo Luntai looked annoyed, and said, "This kind of thing, brother Qiu, it's not like you haven't done it yourself!" Qiu Yisen scratched his ears and scratched his cheeks and murmured, "There is another question. Ms. Zhu's brother went to General Mengoli's winery to make an argument. Because the shotgun went off, what is the reason for the argument?" "Miss Zhu's elder was hit by a car, and the car drove away regardless of the injured person's life or death, should it be pursued logically?" Guan Renmei said again. "How can it be proved that it is the car of General Mengoli's mansion?" Qiu Yisen showed fairness in handling the matter. Guan Renmei pointed out the window again and said, "The land around here is all owned by 'Manshan Farm'. Can you see a big yellow mud road in the middle?" "The road is not well driven, and all the fields are divided into scattered parts. It should be built along the route of water conservancy and irrigation!" Qiu Yisen seems to have some research on agricultural construction. "The road belongs to General Mongoli's mansion!" "What? Possessing a road on someone else's farm?" "This is the privilege of the General's Mansion!" "There is no such reason..." "General Mongoli has made outstanding military exploits in the past dynasties, and he has sealed off the territory. According to the strategic needs of his general's fortress, he can occupy a 'strategic road' on a private farm and buy it forcibly at an official price!" "It's too much to bully!" Qiu Yisen also felt injustice. "'Manshan Farm' was originally a wasteland. It was reclaimed by Zhu's grandfather. After three generations of hard work, it became a fertile and profitable farm. Therefore, it was coveted by powerful people and wanted to annex it by various illegal means. , until fully possessed!" "It's unreasonable!" Qiu Yisen said angrily, "What you are referring to is the gang of foxes and dogs under General Mengoli?!" Guan Renmei pointed to Zhu Daishi and said, "How about letting Miss Zhu marry the accountant of the general's mansion, and the matter can be resolved!" "Is anyone still forcing marriage? It's too despicable..." When Zhu Daishi was told to the point of grief, she couldn't help but shed tears. Qiu Yisen, like Zuo Luntai, is not afraid of the sky, the earth, but the woman's tears.Especially for the tears of beauty, Tie Shi's heart will be soft, and he suddenly appears at a loss. Suddenly, Zuo Luntai laughed loudly, and said, "'When the road is rough, draw your sword to help', maybe Qiu Yisen will give us a helping hand and help us steal treasure!" "Don't drag me into the water!" Qiu Yisen waved his hands hurriedly. "Since we have explained our words, you should stand on our side!" Zuo Luntai said with his hands on his hips: "I don't belong to General Mengoli's mansion!" Qiu Yisen said, "However, I have to protect two ancient Chinese relics at the fair!" "why?" "For 'Yanjing Insurance Company'!" "Insurance companies, as the name suggests, do business to protect the property of the rich for profit. In other words, this kind of business is tantamount to a kind of gambling. Qiu Yisen is well-known, and he would be a bodyguard for the gambling business. Isn't it self-deprecating?" You laughed off the big teeth of your friends in the world." Zuo Luntai said in a sarcastic tone. Qiu Yisen didn't blush, and waved his hands again and again, saying: "The founder of 'Yanjing Insurance Company', Jin Fansheng, is my best friend. He left his hometown when he was a child, and came to Mexico City with bare hands to open a port. At first, he used laundry as a business. , After decades of hard work, saving food and money, and working hard to create the "King's Enterprise Building", operating more than ten kinds of business, it is not easy to get, and it also represents the spirit of overseas Chinese to struggle and start businesses overseas. Known as a role model! Now that this year is old and weak, the next generation is inexperienced, and has suffered from the common disease of rich men, the "King's Enterprise Building" has lost two-thirds, and the "Yanjing Insurance Company" is A link that hangs in the balance, if it collapses, the achievements of Jin Fansheng’s decades of entrepreneurial struggle overseas will instantly disappear, wouldn’t it be sad? For this reason, the brothers can only come out as lobbyists with a little old face , I hope you can hold your hand high, so that an old overseas Chinese who has worked hard to start a business will not fall to the ground, which is considered a great merit!" "Hmph, Qiu Yisen actually became a lobbyist?" Zuo Luntai snorted coldly. "Other than this, is there a better way?" Qiu Yisen asked with a sigh. "You appear as a lobbyist, are you sure you will convince me?" "Although Zuo Luntai is a hero, he is not a man with a heart of stone! You have met Jin Fansheng's son and daughter at the exhibition, and they regard you as gods!" Zuo Luntai pointed to the deserted countryside outside the window, and said with a wicked smile: "You are nicknamed 'Old Fox', and you are extremely smart, so how to solve the problem of 'Manshan Farm'?" Guan Renmei laughed and said, "I heard that Qiu Yisen's rich and powerful casino can buy a Monte Carlo city with his family property. Can you help the money to settle the dispute between 'Manshan Farm' and General Mengoli?" Qiu Yisen said with a wry smile: "Since 'washing hands and closing the mountains', he has been wandering around the world. All the expenses are due to the support and entertainment of old friends. It is not a shame to say it!" "Even if you can convince me, can you convince the camel?" Zuo Luntai asked again. "Camel is called a liar. Just the charity organization for orphans and widows he founded. There are dozens of them in Southeast Asia. His heart is softer than yours!" "It's another thing to act chivalrously and do charity. It has nothing to do with stealing treasure. The camel's good deeds have always adopted the strategy of 'the wool comes from the sheep'. In other words, it is generosity to others! Maybe Stealing treasure is his new motivation for philanthropy!" Qiu Yisen murmured and said, "Luo Tuo is certainly hard to mess with, but fortunately his adopted son Xia Luohong is easy to talk to. Jin Fansheng's career is already in crisis. I don't think Luo Tuo can bear to let a man who has worked overseas for decades It should be convincing that many of the old overseas Chinese fell overnight!" Zuo Luntai still insisted on his own opinion, saying: "If the camel ignores it, what about you?" "As long as Xia Luohong agrees, my problem can basically be solved!" "If you teach me to hold back and let the camel enjoy the benefits, I won't do it!" Zuo Luntai said eagerly. Qiu Yisen stayed for a while, as if he was thinking about another problem, and said, "If I help you solve the problem of 'Manshan Farm', and you help me deal with the camels, we have a tacit understanding first, what do you think?" Zuo Luntai was taken aback for a moment, and said, "How to solve the problem of 'Manshan Farm'?" "I'm still thinking about it!" "Old fox, you are adopting the 'two-horse carriage' policy, to appease me first?!" Qiu Yisen hurriedly patted his chest and said: "My surname, Qiu, has always kept its word. You are willing to let the 'Yanjing Insurance Company' go, and the problem of 'Manshan Farm', we will work together to solve it! Strength and wisdom can be settled!" Zuo Luntai laughed and said, "Your purpose is to try to win me over to deal with the camel!" "Camels are powerful opponents. Wouldn't it be interesting to fight camels with our joint strength?" "Will you fight camels?" Zuo Luntai was still thinking, "But then again, if camels also come to win me over, how should I choose?" Qiu Yisen was stunned, "There are many talented people under Luo Tuo, will he win you over?" "I can steal treasure with the strength of one person. No matter how many capable people there are under the camel, at least I will be his resistance. It is not too much for the camel to help me. At the same time, with the strength of the camel, it can help I solved the problem of 'Manshan Farm', and in this predicament, at least the camel is still the strong one, isn't it better for me to approach the strong than to be an enemy of the strong?" Qiu Yisen was embarrassed and said, "Could you be this kind of person?" "Sometimes the fire is so close that there is no choice!" "From your tone, you're still afraid of camels!" Qiu Yisen sneered. "Wandering in the rivers and lakes, no one is afraid of anyone! 'Knowing heroes and respecting heroes' is the code in the rivers and lakes! If you accept my conditions, I will help you fight camels!" Zuo Luntai said in a compelling tone: "If you can fight wits with strong people, It is also the honor of a lifetime!" "Your condition is a question of 'Manshan Farm'?" "Solve the problem of 'Manshan Farm' first!" Zuo Luntai said again: "We'd better set a time limit!" "I need time to understand the process of the dispute between the two parties!" Qiu Yisen said. "Generally speaking, Guan Renmei and I have explained to you clearly!" "I need to learn more!" "You can answer me within a week!" "Don't you think it's too compelling?" "There are not many exhibition dates in the expo. At the same time, fighting wits with camels also takes time to plan. I will not suspend the overall plan because of your few words. If I stand by and let the camels enjoy the benefits, the 'Manshan Farm' matter cannot be resolved. How can I, Zuo Luntai, have the face to run around the rivers and lakes again?" "One week?" Qiu Yisen frowned, as if he was thinking carefully. "Is the car you returned still on the farm? Then I can give you a ride!" Zuo Luntai had already driven away. "I should do it for you." Guan Renmei suggested to Zuo Luntai. "Okay! I'm tired." Zuo Luntai said. Qiu Yisen didn't want to continue arguing with Zuo Luntai, and it would be best to resign at the right time, so he said to Zuo Luntai, "We've made a deal, and I'll give you an answer within a week!" "Go out of the house now, don't you need to climb the window?" Guan Renmei said to Qiu Yisen in a sarcasm tone, then winked at her adoptive father, jumped up and down, and led her downstairs. Zuo Luntai and Zhu Daishi looked out the window, watching Qiu Yisen and Guan Renmei step out of the "Three Yuan Hotel". Zhu Daishi's face was sad, with tears in her eyes, she murmured: "Zuo Luntai, your plan to steal treasure has been exposed, as long as there is any movement, you may be captured at any time!" Zuo Luntai was confident and said, "Don't worry, Qiu Yisen is only here to seek peace!" "No! He knows your movements and will call the police at any time!" Zuo Lun Tai Gege laughed and said: "Friends on the rivers and lakes will not call the police, otherwise he will show his incompetence!" "I do not understand what you mean……" "It's because you don't understand 'jianghu dao'! Qiu Yisen is famous, if he informs the police, he won't have to mess around when he runs outside in the future!" “但是他为了保护宝物不被盗窃，可以不择手段！” “仇奕森绝不会这样做，否则他就不会有那样大的名气！大家也不会称他为'老狐狸'了！” 朱黛诗还是想不通，又说：“关人美一再表现和仇奕森亲切，是有何作用吗？” “小妮子是希望能对仇奕森多作了解，知己知彼，对我们终归是有利的！”
“金氏企业大楼”的第三层，原是“金氏轮船公司”，只因为近年来业务不振，又发生过海难事件，把轮船全给赔了，业务便告停顿，所有的员工解雇，剩下的只有一座成真空状态的办公室。 为了避讳，仇奕森让金燕妮打开了该楼，利用这空着的办公室做他的临时办事处，那里向装着有好几部电话，连络也颇方便。 仇奕森有许多问题没敢和金京华商量，金京华浮浪惯了，交朋友也没有选择，嘴巴又留不住事情，“成事不足，败事有余”，容易将事情搞砸。他唯一可商讨问题的是金燕妮，可信赖的青年是何立克，这一男一女，几乎就成为他的助臂了。 为了要拉拢左轮泰，仇奕森答应过协同解决“满山农场”的问题。 “满山农场”和蒙戈利将军府之间的冲突，虽然曾经过左轮泰和关人美的一番解说，但他俩说的话是否可靠？有无偏袒？或是故意出此难题？仇奕森都得加以考虑，因此，仇奕森需要该案的资料。 仇奕森让金燕妮和何立克两人翻旧报纸剪新闻资料，加以整理一番，藉以了解全案。整个“金氏轮船公司”的办公室都摆满了各种文字的旧报纸。 金燕妮很觉纳闷，仇奕森为什么对该案发生了兴趣，这和博览会的盗宝防范会有关系吗？ 仇奕森还希望获得法院方面的资料，“满山农场”和蒙戈利将军府都聘有律师，双方面的律师仇奕森都希望去拜访一番。 “燕妮，你对'蒙地卡罗之夜'可有与趣？在邦坝水库的'皇后酒店'举行，又是'仁慈会'的把戏，慈善募捐，不过在此假日中，一定怪热闹的！”何立克翻着报纸，忽地发现一则新闻，打算邀金燕妮去玩乐一番。 金燕妮冷嗤说：“谁有兴趣去赌博？不过这种场合，家兄是一定不会放弃的！” 仇奕森倒是注意到了“邦坝水库”几个字，他怔怔地问：“邦坝水库是什么地方？” “啊，那是墨城新近兴建最大的水库，是风景幽美的观光区，差不多光临墨城的观光客，该水库是第一游览胜地！”何立克解释说：“那儿有足以向世界夸耀的水力发电厂、自来水厂，最豪华的酒店、夜总会、儿童游乐场、动物园等各项设施。” 仇奕森会注意水库，就是联想到发电厂的关系。便说：“该水库的水力发电厂供电量大吗？” “现在墨城全市的电力，已几乎全都由邦坝水库供应了！”何立克说。 仇奕森两眼炯炯再问：“那么，假如邦坝水库的发电厂电路故障的话，墨城是否会陷于停电，全市黑暗呢？” 何立克和金燕妮面面相觑，他俩都不清楚仇奕森又有着什么样的想法。 “这种事情在墨城从未发生过！”何立克怔怔地回答。 “仇叔叔，你又想到了什么？我们很难懂呢！”金燕妮也怔怔地说。 “你说'蒙地卡罗之夜'是什么人主持的？”仇奕森接过何立克手中的报纸，找寻他发现的新闻报告。 “'仁慈会'主持的！”何立克说。 “'仁慈会'是什么性质？社会团体吗？” “是的，都是社会上有地位、对慈善事业热心的社会名流组成的，经常募捐或举办各种吸引人的演出，收入所得悉数拨归慈善机构，家父也是其中一份子，他是监事！”何立克说。 金燕妮忙说：“蒙戈利将军是该会的名誉会长！” 仇奕森笑了起来，说：“那么'蒙地卡罗之夜'，蒙戈利将军也会出现了？” “不一定，这个老家伙年纪大，病痛多，他只要名誉，事情都是由手下人办理！” “不过也可能出现，对吗？”仇奕森面呈得意之色，说：“我想骆驼和左轮泰都不会放弃这种机会，和他们在那地方碰头，倒是很有趣的事情呢！” “仇叔叔假如有兴趣，我替你弄请帖！”何立克一方面是讨好仇奕森，同时他想，金燕妮也一定会答应与他作伴了。 “一定需要请帖才能入场吗？” “这是社会名流的派头！” “那么我需要七八份请帖！” “仇叔叔是打算另外邀请朋友去吗？”何立克再问。 仇奕森点头说：“这样就无需左轮泰和骆驼另外再去动脑筋了！”
这天，“豪华酒店”骆驼的房间里，侍者送来了“蒙地卡罗之夜”的三份请帖，是用仁慈会的信封装着的，上面写着“骆驼教授收”。 骆驼暗觉奇怪，是谁会送他这样的三份请帖呢？他正在动脑筋，企图设法弄得几份请帖，不想得来全不费功夫。 这原因，是“蒙地卡罗之夜”是在墨城最著名的邦坝水库举行，骆驼曾在附近勘查过，若想博览会停电的话，在会场附近或是在墨城动脑筋，非常的不简单，所以，骆驼获悉“仁慈会”在邦坝水库举行“蒙地卡罗之夜”的消息，就企图设法获取请帖，先到邦坝水库去查探一番。 骆驼曾和帐房经理商量过，他自称有赌博癖好，又希望到邦坝水库去观光一番，因之，请帐房设法替他索取请帖。但是“仁慈会”是由社会名流组成的，发请帖由他们自列名单，认为够得上资格赌博的人才会发出邀请，很多地方他们都不买帐，不过那位经理应允尽力替骆驼设法。 骆驼又动脑筋，让贺希妮冒认蒙戈利将军府的关系索取，但那是非常冒险的事情，常老么也出动设法，向印刷厂动脑筋。 忽地，竟有人自动将请帖送上门，是谁送的？Nobody knows. 骆驼向送请帖进来的侍者询问。侍者回答说： “有人把请帖送到柜台就自行离去，什么话都没留下！” 骆驼猜想，也许是经理真为他尽了力，于是不疑有他。那位经理也正好领功了事。 骆驼已经计划好，侦查邦坝水库的分电所，一定非要孙阿七出马不可。 孙阿七是“飞贼”出身，有飞檐走壁之能，分电所的输电路线，那一个枢钮是输往墨城、和博览会有关连的，需得很快查出。 夏落红也需要参加这个盛会，他的头脑灵活，可以给孙阿七接应，计划将来停电的设计。 贺希妮曾经冒认和蒙戈利将军关系至深，她没有请帖是不像话的。因之，骆驼计划好，分给贺希妮一张请帖，夏落红和孙阿七一张，骆驼和常老么一张请帖。 每帖两人，照说是应该邀请女伴同行的，好在他们是游客身分也就无所谓了，贺希妮只身挂了单，骆驼教她邀酒店的保镖占天霸同行，藉以显耀身分特殊。
“满山农场”也有人送去请帖二份。 左轮泰的情形和骆驼相同，他查探过博览会周围的环境，要动脑筋停电的话，很费手脚。邦坝水库举办“蒙地卡罗之夜”很吸引他的注意。墨城有专供游览取阅的旅游手册，上面有一页就是专门介绍邦坝水库的，说明了墨城的电力供应，有三分之二依赖邦坝水库供应。 博览会盗宝只需停电一分多钟，电子防盗设备失效，他便可以从容盗出宝物。 “满山农场”若未遭遇惨变时，每逢有这样的盛会，会自动有请帖送上门。慈善募捐的大户，名册上也少不了会有“满山农场”的。可是“满山农场”经过巨变，已至家散人亡的程度，还有官司累身，“满山农场”的几个字就在名册上剔除了，不再会有请帖送上门啦。 左轮泰需要了解“邦坝水库”，得设法弄一张请帖到手，可是请帖竟自动上门了，难道说，“满山农场”还没有在名册上剔除吗？ 朱黛诗很觉奇怪、她说：“'仁慈会'一连举办好几次慈善大会，我们都没有收到请帖，为什么这一次又特别了？” 左轮泰说：“说不定是办事人员的疏忽！” “不！”朱黛诗说：“每逢有这种盛会时，蒙戈利将军的帐房佛烈德就会来邀请我做他的女伴，藉此炫耀他们的权势，名单被剔除，也是这批人捣的鬼，他们用心险恶，怎会疏忽呢？” “你认为佛烈德还会来邀请你吗？” “一定会来的！他会借此机会逼我就范，接纳他们的条件！”朱黛诗说时，有无限的感伤。 关人美脑筋一转，说：“会不会是仇奕森捣的鬼？他识破你的企图了！” 左轮泰不乐，说：“你把仇奕森看得太神奇了，他能老走在我们的前面吗？” 关人美呶着小嘴，两眼灼灼地说：“你想，骆驼和他的党羽也会趁着'蒙地卡罗之夜'的机会，到邦坝水库去吗？” 左轮泰被提醒了，凝呆了半晌，呐呐说：“你倒提醒我了，我们是三方斗法，也说不定是骆驼，他在试探我是否同样在邦坝水库上动念头！” “这两份请帖，不是骆驼送来的，就是仇奕森送来的，他们两方正在进行和你竞赛！”关人美说。 朱黛诗摇头说：“我曾经多次游览邦坝水库，那是一座非常雄伟的工程，机构繁多，特别是水力发电方面，有变电所、分电所、蓄电所等等，不是该电力机构的工程人员，谁会搞得清楚可以在那儿切断电源呢？我老觉得这件事情太过冒险了！” 忽地，一部豪华汽车驶至“三元饭店”前，嘟，嘟揿了喇叭。 雷兰兰已飞步奔上了楼梯，她呐呐向朱黛诗说：“蒙戈利将军府的帐房先生佛烈德又来找你了！” 朱黛诗柳眉倒竖，异常气愤地说：“对不？他们是一点也不放松的！” 左轮泰诅咒说：“岂有此理，简直是欺人太甚了！”他拉开窗帘向外望，只见那部豪华汽车漆着有蒙戈利将军府的旗帜。后车厢的玻璃窗口探出一只脑袋，半秃头，鹰钩鼻，络腮胡子正好围住他的嘴巴，远看好似没有眉毛，两只圆亮的老鼠眼……凭他的长相竟然想不择手段追求朱黛诗，也不自己照照镜子。 朱黛诗推开窗户，高声说：“佛烈德先生，又有何指教？” 佛烈德下车一鞠躬，扬高了他手中的一份请帖，说：“朱小姐，我能有荣幸邀请你给我作伴，参加'蒙地卡罗之夜'的盛会？” 朱黛诗叱斥说：“下次再擅自踏进我农场的土地，我就用枪打你！” 佛烈德嬉皮笑脸说：“黛诗小姐，不要紧的，我在等候着你的回心转意，总有一天，我想，你会接受我的邀请的！” 朱黛诗恼了火，一只玻璃杯飞到街面上去了，“乒”的一声，砸得粉碎。 佛烈德还是那样厚颜，深深一鞠躬，然后走回汽车里去，司机发动汽车，又揿了喇叭，汽车扬长而去。 朱黛诗异常激动，转身向左轮泰说：“我说过佛烈德绝对不放弃机会的！” 关人美很为朱黛诗打抱不平，说：“你就这样忍气吞声吗？” “在这种环境之下，我又能如何呢？”朱黛诗已是热泪盈眶了。 左轮泰咬牙切齿说：“这种人，非得收拾他不可！” 关人美说：“现在的问题，'蒙地卡罗之夜'请帖是从何来的？” 左轮泰说：“管他呢！邦坝水库我们是非去不可的，不论是谁邀请我们，我们都得感激他呢！”
At the same time, in a Chinese-style "Sanyuan Restaurant" near the "Manshan Farm" sugar factory, Zuo Luntai, his adopted daughter Guan Renmei, and his girlfriend Zhu Daishi were also studying the plan to steal treasure. The owner of this restaurant, Lei Mingtong, was originally a foreman of the sugar factory on the farm. He opened this restaurant as a speculative business, and all transactions depended on the care of the sugar factory employees.Now, there is a dispute between the Zhu family and General Mengoli's mansion, the sugar factory has stopped working, the employees have been dismissed, and the restaurant has naturally closed. For the sake of convenience, Zuo Luntai rented the second floor of "Sanyuan Restaurant" as a place to rest. Zhu's furniture had been moved by Zhu Zhai, and it was quite decently arranged. Lei Mingtong didn't live in the "Three Yuan Hotel" after the restaurant closed. He left his youngest daughter, Lei Lanlan, to take care of Zuo Luntai's daily life and food. Lei Lanlan is seventeen years old, fair and exquisite, lively and cute, Zuo Luntai is very satisfied, at least his boring treasure robbery plan is in progress, life has been adjusted, and sometimes making Lei Lanlan happy can eliminate many problems lonely. But after Guan Renmei arrived, the situation was different. Guan Renmei was not pleasing to the eye when she saw Lei Lanlan. Lan came. "You are nearly fifty years old, seducing underage girls, this is not a joke!" After seeing Lei Lanlan, she looked at the surrounding environment and immediately warned Zuo Luntai. Zuo Luntai was very annoyed, and said, "You are not very old, why do you see all the dirty things in your eyes?" "Maybe it's because I've watched you too much!" "Nonsense, I, Zuo Luntai, have always walked steadily and stood upright!" Zuo Luntai was said to be worthless by his daughter in front of Zhu Daishi, and he was so angry that he wanted to beat someone up. "Lonely men and widows live in the same room, and Zuo Luntai is unwilling to be lonely. Imagine if the little sheep in the tiger's den will turn into a snack sooner or later? It should be called 'love's dessert'!" "Bah! That's why I'm not happy that you came to Mocheng!" "Because I'm the thorn in your eye!" "I'm planning to steal treasure. If you only destroy me instead of helping me, I'll send you home!" Guan Renmei waved her hand playfully and said, "Don't become angry because I saw through your mind. Of course I came here to help you steal the treasure. Even if I go through fire and water, I will not hesitate!" Zuo Luntai said: "This is the biggest enemy I have encountered in my life!" Guan Renmei said: "Since this is the case, no matter whether you succeed or fail in stealing treasure, the first thing to do is to offend others and hurt the harmony of the world!" "But the difficulties in Zhu Dai's family must be resolved!" "Aside from stealing treasure, is there no second way?" Zuo Luntai said: "As far as I know, General Mengoli's minions are deceiving. Only stealing treasures can shock Mocheng, showing that someone can stand up for the Zhu family and force General Mengoli to come forward to negotiate in person! He is a A good man, he considers himself a philanthropist, he pays attention to justice in everything, if the matter of 'Manshan Farm' can be revealed in front of him, I believe it will be easy to solve!" Guan Renmei sneered again, and said, "Do you think it's easy to steal treasure? That's the world-famous 'World Expo'!" "If there were no two groups of Luo Tuo and Qiu Yisen to disturb it, it would be effortless!" "Speak wild words!" Guan Renmei's nonchalant speech made Zuo Luntai furious, forcing him to yell out sternly. Zhu Daishi was always in fear, and now she interjected: "Brother Tai has always seen everything too simple..." She unfolded a self-drawn picture in her hand, pointed and said: "Look, this exhibition venue is surrounded by There are many soldiers and police, and the venue is equipped with electronic anti-theft equipment. If you are not careful, the alarm bells will ring loudly..." Guan Renmei hurriedly snatched the drawing for a closer look, and murmured, "An electronic anti-theft device?" "Isn't it? The design of the 'Roche & Sons Electromechanical Engineering Company', Brother Tai asked me to go to the company to ask how to install anti-theft equipment. That Mr. Luo was obsessed with sex, and he took out the design blueprint of the exhibition venue." , I memorized for several hours before I wrote down all the important items!" Zhu Daishi said very worriedly. Guan Renmei laughed after seeing the drawing, and said: "I know what kind of tricks are in Zuo Luntai's belly, he is not afraid of electronic anti-theft devices!" Zuo Luntai said: "Huangmao girl, tell me what's on my mind!" "Without electricity, wouldn't the electronic anti-theft equipment be useless?" Guan Renmei said. "Is there a power outage?" Zhu Daishi asked. "Cut off the power!" Guan Renmei said. Zuo Luntai nodded and said, "The girl has improved!" Guan Renmei added: "But the circuits around the exhibition hall are buried underground, so it's not easy for you to cut off its power supply!" "It will always have controls and switches on the ground!" "I'm afraid it will take a lot of trouble!" "Win with wisdom, don't be afraid of setbacks!" "However, there are dense guards inside and outside the exhibition hall. When the power fails, they will definitely be more vigilant!" Guan Renmei said. "Of course we must send them away!" "Do you already have a draft in your stomach?" Zuo Luntai scratched his head and said, "The exhibition of treasures in the World Expo is not limited to one country, but also several places where 'treasures are discovered'. We can make a big difference and start in other places first..." Guan Renmei shook her head and said, "However, the security guards employed by each unit are different. Everyone 'sweeps the snow in front of the door', you can't do anything about it!" "If there was a fight, the situation might be different," Zuo Luntai said. "Are you going to use force?" "What's the point of acting? You have to make him 'turn upside down'!" Zhu Daishi was still terrified. She always believed that things would not be as simple as Zuo Luntai imagined, and the people who held the exhibition were definitely not fools. "Zuo Luntai, you have neglected one thing!" Guan Renmei suddenly raised a finger, pointing at the tip of Zuo Luntai's nose mischievously: "You will consider the method of power failure and disable the electronic anti-theft device. The two opponents, Qiu Yisen and Luo Tuo, wouldn't they have thought of this move?" This sentence hit Zuo Luntai's mind, Na Na said: "The ones I hate are these two people!" Zhu Daishi said: "Qiu Yisen is helping the exhibition hall. If he can think of the power outage, he will naturally think of other preventive methods!" Guan Renmei said: "The camel has a lot to do with it. He has many capable people under his command. As long as one person is allocated to deal with you, you will be overwhelmed!" "I should have a way to deal with them!" Zuo Luntai said. "Can you make enemies in every direction?" Zuo Luntai said: "My nickname is 'The World's Number One Shooter', and they are all afraid of my marksmanship, so, before stealing treasure, I will challenge them to compete with my marksmanship..." Guan Renmei giggled and said, "This is a means of intimidation!" Zuo Luntai said: "Use my strengths to deal with their weaknesses, this is where I excel!" "Don't forget, Qiu Yisen is also a sharpshooter!" Guan Renmei reminded him. "I'm a class above him, and Qiu Yisen dare not try it! Especially when it comes to camels, he is the world's number one swindler. He has a very well-developed brain and superior wisdom. He won't do life gambling, at least, I can scare them off, maybe one less enemy!" Guan Renmei still poured cold water on Zuo Lun Tai, saying: "However, Xia Luohong, Luo Tuo's adopted son, is also an expert with guns. I heard that he can also shoot out candles within a hundred steps!" Zuo Luntai was very proud, waved his hands and said, "Hmph, compared to me, that's nothing!" Suddenly, Zuo Luntai's eyes widened, shining with a strange brilliance, he took out his hand, and the revolver pinned under his arm was already in his hand, he gave a light hiss to Guan Renmei and Zhu Daishi with his pointing lips. what happened?Did Revolver discover anything special? On the land of "Manshan Farm", in a "Sanyuan Hotel" that has closed down and no one knows about it, will there be anything worthy of a sword? I saw Zuo Luntai turn around, and slipped into the room that he used as his bedroom.He must have heard some strange sound, that's why he acted like this. He tiptoed to the window, where a long velvet curtain was covering a row of long windows. Zuo Luntai suddenly pulled the curtain open, and with a push of his hand, a window was also pushed open. There was a person standing outside the window, just facing Zuo Luntai. "Qiu Yisen..." Zuo Luntai was a little excited, blushing and crying out in surprise. "I came here to pay a visit, but you actually treat the guests with guns?" Qiu Yisen acted quite calmly, holding the window frame with both hands, and was about to lift his foot to step into the window. "A special visit? Are you going to peek at my residence by flying over the eaves, climbing the walls and windows and hiding outside the eaves?" Zuo Luntai was wondering in his heart that Qiu Yisen would actually find the "Three Yuan Hotel" in Manshan Farm. Qiu Yisen stretched out his hand and flicked the dirt off his body. "Zuo Luntai, out of good intentions, I specially brought back the rental car you left at the airport!" When he said this, Zuo Luntai suddenly realized that it was the so-called "everything must be lost." Qiu Yisen relied entirely on the help of Wallace Fanlun's two assistants. He figured out that Zuo Luntai would definitely come in his own car, so he asked Scott and Williams to take turns guarding the parking lot and gradually register the cars coming and going. Wallace Van Lun, in addition to taking notes, took a picture every ten minutes or so.After checking, it was found that there were a total of two cars in the parking lot that had not been moved.One is a transportation vehicle of a private airline company, which was out of service due to breakdown and disrepair; the other is a small sports car "Osmobile", which was found to be a taxi belonging to "Single Car Rental Company". After further investigation, the renter was Miss Lei Lanlan from the "Three Yuan Hotel" of Manshan Farm. Qiu Yisen got a report and identified Zuo Luntai as the "Three Yuan Hotel" hiding in Manshan Farm. It is not difficult to prepare a key, so he boldly drove the small "Osmobile" sports car to "Manshan Farm". Qiu Yisen had entered the room through the window, and pushed the muzzle of the revolver in Zuo Luntai's hand. "Is it Zuo Luntai's usual style to treat visitors at gunpoint?" Zuo Luntai laughed loudly and said, "Then Brother Qiu, what did you do here?" "It's still an old saying, I advise you to give up stealing treasure!" "Are you sure I'm here to steal treasure?" "Zuo Luntai has always been upright, but suddenly he has a secretive move, and his intention is very obvious!" Zuo Luntai clasped the revolver on his fingers several times, twisted his hand, the gun returned to its sheath, and said, "What if I don't accept your suggestion?" "Friends become enemies, and I will become your opponent!" Qiu Yisen said with a shrug. Zuo Luntai applauded and said, "Okay, I finally found a strong opponent!" Guan Renmei was worried that they would clash face to face, so she held her belly together with both hands, giggled, and said, "You two can be said to be meddling with meddling!" Qiu Yisen waved his hand to Guan Renmei and said, "When the road is uneven, it is a common problem for meddlers to draw their swords to help each other, but how can this have anything to do with stealing treasure?" Guan Renmei said: "In the world, there are often many unbelievable things, and it is because of this that they are related. Who said that the two treasures displayed at the expo belong to General Mengoli..." "Guan Renmei, I forbid you to continue talking!" Zuo Luntai scolded. Guan Renmei didn't think so, and said: "Chou Yisen has come here from a long way, with a serious face, I believe he is just meddling in business, so why don't we tell the truth? Let's see which of you two is meddling in business." The weight is heavy, so there is always one side that can give up or make concessions, which is a very open and aboveboard approach!" Qiu Yisen nodded and praised: "Miss Guan is beautiful, and she speaks beautifully!" Therefore, Guan Renmei opened the entire curtain, pointed out the window and said, "When you entered the 'Manshan Farm', you could already see the entire farm in ruins, as if some natural or man-made disaster had happened?" Qiu Yisen said: "I'm wondering, it's the time for spring plowing preparations, why the farm seems to have stopped work? It seems that last year's harvest has not been processed!" Guan Renmei said: "From this window, there is a very conspicuous building, and there is only an empty body left. Can you tell the reason?" Qiu Yisen frowned, and said: "It was a disaster of returning home, and it was burned to the ground, leaving only an empty frame. It looks like a factory!" Guan Renmei introduced Zhu Daishi, saying: "This is Miss Zhu, the third-generation owner of 'Manshan Farm'. 'Manshan Farm' is adjacent to General Mengoli's mansion. Fighting against the situation.” Under the unfavorable conditions of the time and place, the Zhu family violated the above two commandments, so the family was scattered and died. The factory is owned by General Mongoli. Miss Zhu’s brother, because of reasoning, Unfortunately, the shotgun went off and burned the factory to the ground. My grandfather died in a fit of anger. My father was hit by General Mongoli's lackeys and his legs were broken. He is still receiving medical treatment in the United States. He was seriously injured at such a young age and is still recuperating on the sickbed. .My brother is in prison, and his property has been frozen again. This farm is about to fall into the property of General Mongoli's mansion..." Qiu Yisen bowed sadly to Zhu Daishi and said, "I am very sad to hear this story; but what does it have to do with stealing treasure?" "The exhibited treasures belong to General Mengoli, and Zuo Luntai plans to retaliate and give him an earth-shattering counterattack, so as to demand fair negotiations!" Guan Renmei said. "I don't understand!" Qiu Yisen shook his head and said, "According to legend, General Mengoli is a famous philanthropist in Mexico City, and he is very popular. He is definitely not the bully you described!" "The good people in the noble ivory tower are often deceived by their subordinates. There is no good heart, and the bad things are done by the subordinates. Ordinary people want to meet with General Mengoli and express their feelings face to face. It's still hard to reach the sky..." "Then after trying to steal the treasure, are you negotiating face to face with General Mengoli in a grand robber's manner?" Qiu Yisen asked. Zuo Luntai looked annoyed, and said, "This kind of thing, brother Qiu, it's not like you haven't done it yourself!" Qiu Yisen scratched his ears and scratched his cheeks and murmured, "There is another question. Ms. Zhu's brother went to General Mengoli's winery to make an argument. Because the shotgun went off, what is the reason for the argument?" "Miss Zhu's elder was hit by a car, and the car drove away regardless of the injured person's life or death, should it be pursued logically?" Guan Renmei said again. "How can it be proved that it is the car of General Mengoli's mansion?" Qiu Yisen showed fairness in handling the matter. Guan Renmei pointed out the window again and said, "The land around here is all owned by 'Manshan Farm'. Can you see a big yellow mud road in the middle?" "The road is not well driven, and all the fields are divided into scattered parts. It should be built along the route of water conservancy and irrigation!" Qiu Yisen seems to have some research on agricultural construction. "The road belongs to General Mongoli's mansion!" "What? Possessing a road on someone else's farm?" "This is the privilege of the General's Mansion!" "There is no such reason..." "General Mongoli has made outstanding military exploits in the past dynasties, and he has sealed off the territory. According to the strategic needs of his general's fortress, he can occupy a 'strategic road' on a private farm and buy it forcibly at an official price!" "It's too much to bully!" Qiu Yisen also felt injustice. "'Manshan Farm' was originally a wasteland. It was reclaimed by Zhu's grandfather. After three generations of hard work, it became a fertile and profitable farm. Therefore, it was coveted by powerful people and wanted to annex it by various illegal means. , until fully possessed!" "It's unreasonable!" Qiu Yisen said angrily, "What you are referring to is the gang of foxes and dogs under General Mengoli?!" Guan Renmei pointed to Zhu Daishi and said, "How about letting Miss Zhu marry the accountant of the general's mansion, and the matter can be resolved!" "Is anyone still forcing marriage? It's too despicable..." When Zhu Daishi was told to the point of grief, she couldn't help but shed tears. Qiu Yisen, like Zuo Luntai, is not afraid of the sky, the earth, but the woman's tears.Especially for the tears of beauty, Tie Shi's heart will be soft, and he suddenly appears at a loss. Suddenly, Zuo Luntai laughed loudly, and said, "'When the road is rough, draw your sword to help', maybe Qiu Yisen will give us a helping hand and help us steal treasure!" "Don't drag me into the water!" Qiu Yisen waved his hands hurriedly. "Since we have explained our words, you should stand on our side!" Zuo Luntai said with his hands on his hips: "I don't belong to General Mengoli's mansion!" Qiu Yisen said, "However, I have to protect two ancient Chinese relics at the fair!" "why?" "For 'Yanjing Insurance Company'!" "Insurance companies, as the name suggests, do business to protect the property of the rich for profit. In other words, this kind of business is tantamount to a kind of gambling. Qiu Yisen is well-known, and he would be a bodyguard for the gambling business. Isn't it self-deprecating?" You laughed off the big teeth of your friends in the world." Zuo Luntai said in a sarcastic tone. Qiu Yisen didn't blush, and waved his hands again and again, saying: "The founder of 'Yanjing Insurance Company', Jin Fansheng, is my best friend. He left his hometown when he was a child, and came to Mexico City with bare hands to open a port. At first, he used laundry as a business. , After decades of hard work, saving food and money, and working hard to create the "King's Enterprise Building", operating more than ten kinds of business, it is not easy to get, and it also represents the spirit of overseas Chinese to struggle and start businesses overseas. Known as a role model! Now that this year is old and weak, the next generation is inexperienced, and has suffered from the common disease of rich men, the "King's Enterprise Building" has lost two-thirds, and the "Yanjing Insurance Company" is A link that hangs in the balance, if it collapses, the achievements of Jin Fansheng’s decades of entrepreneurial struggle overseas will instantly disappear, wouldn’t it be sad? For this reason, the brothers can only come out as lobbyists with a little old face , I hope you can hold your hand high, so that an old overseas Chinese who has worked hard to start a business will not fall to the ground, which is considered a great merit!" "Hmph, Qiu Yisen actually became a lobbyist?" Zuo Luntai snorted coldly. "Other than this, is there a better way?" Qiu Yisen asked with a sigh. "You appear as a lobbyist, are you sure you will convince me?" "Although Zuo Luntai is a hero, he is not a man with a heart of stone! You have met Jin Fansheng's son and daughter at the exhibition, and they regard you as gods!" Zuo Luntai pointed to the deserted countryside outside the window, and said with a wicked smile: "You are nicknamed 'Old Fox', and you are extremely smart, so how to solve the problem of 'Manshan Farm'?" Guan Renmei laughed and said, "I heard that Qiu Yisen's rich and powerful casino can buy a Monte Carlo city with his family property. Can you help the money to settle the dispute between 'Manshan Farm' and General Mengoli?" Qiu Yisen said with a wry smile: "Since 'washing hands and closing the mountains', he has been wandering around the world. All the expenses are due to the support and entertainment of old friends. It is not a shame to say it!" "Even if you can convince me, can you convince the camel?" Zuo Luntai asked again. "Camel is called a liar. Just the charity organization for orphans and widows he founded. There are dozens of them in Southeast Asia. His heart is softer than yours!" "It's another thing to act chivalrously and do charity. It has nothing to do with stealing treasure. The camel's good deeds have always adopted the strategy of 'the wool comes from the sheep'. In other words, it is generosity to others! Maybe Stealing treasure is his new motivation for philanthropy!" Qiu Yisen murmured and said, "Luo Tuo is certainly hard to mess with, but fortunately his adopted son Xia Luohong is easy to talk to. Jin Fansheng's career is already in crisis. I don't think Luo Tuo can bear to let a man who has worked overseas for decades It should be convincing that many of the old overseas Chinese fell overnight!" Zuo Luntai still insisted on his own opinion, saying: "If the camel ignores it, what about you?" "As long as Xia Luohong agrees, my problem can basically be solved!" "If you teach me to hold back and let the camel enjoy the benefits, I won't do it!" Zuo Luntai said eagerly. Qiu Yisen stayed for a while, as if he was thinking about another problem, and said, "If I help you solve the problem of 'Manshan Farm', and you help me deal with the camels, we have a tacit understanding first, what do you think?" Zuo Luntai was taken aback for a moment, and said, "How to solve the problem of 'Manshan Farm'?" "I'm still thinking about it!" "Old fox, you are adopting the 'two-horse carriage' policy, to appease me first?!" Qiu Yisen hurriedly patted his chest and said: "My surname, Qiu, has always kept its word. You are willing to let the 'Yanjing Insurance Company' go, and the problem of 'Manshan Farm', we will work together to solve it! Strength and wisdom can be settled!" Zuo Luntai laughed and said, "Your purpose is to try to win me over to deal with the camel!" "Camels are powerful opponents. Wouldn't it be interesting to fight camels with our joint strength?" "Will you fight camels?" Zuo Luntai was still thinking, "But then again, if camels also come to win me over, how should I choose?" Qiu Yisen was stunned, "There are many talented people under Luo Tuo, will he win you over?" "I can steal treasure with the strength of one person. No matter how many capable people there are under the camel, at least I will be his resistance. It is not too much for the camel to help me. At the same time, with the strength of the camel, it can help I solved the problem of 'Manshan Farm', and in this predicament, at least the camel is still the strong one, isn't it better for me to approach the strong than to be an enemy of the strong?" Qiu Yisen was embarrassed and said, "Could you be this kind of person?" "Sometimes the fire is so close that there is no choice!" "From your tone, you're still afraid of camels!" Qiu Yisen sneered. "Wandering in the rivers and lakes, no one is afraid of anyone! 'Knowing heroes and respecting heroes' is the code in the rivers and lakes! If you accept my conditions, I will help you fight camels!" Zuo Luntai said in a compelling tone: "If you can fight wits with strong people, It is also the honor of a lifetime!" "Your condition is a question of 'Manshan Farm'?" "Solve the problem of 'Manshan Farm' first!" Zuo Luntai said again: "We'd better set a time limit!" "I need time to understand the process of the dispute between the two parties!" Qiu Yisen said. "Generally speaking, Guan Renmei and I have explained to you clearly!" "I need to learn more!" "You can answer me within a week!" "Don't you think it's too compelling?" "There are not many exhibition dates in the expo. At the same time, fighting wits with camels also takes time to plan. I will not suspend the overall plan because of your few words. If I stand by and let the camels enjoy the benefits, the 'Manshan Farm' matter cannot be resolved. How can I, Zuo Luntai, have the face to run around the rivers and lakes again?" "One week?" Qiu Yisen frowned, as if he was thinking carefully. "Is the car you returned still on the farm? Then I can give you a ride!" Zuo Luntai had already driven away. "I should do it for you." Guan Renmei suggested to Zuo Luntai. "Okay! I'm tired." Zuo Luntai said. Qiu Yisen didn't want to continue arguing with Zuo Luntai, and it would be best to resign at the right time, so he said to Zuo Luntai, "We've made a deal, and I'll give you an answer within a week!" "Go out of the house now, don't you need to climb the window?" Guan Renmei said to Qiu Yisen in a sarcasm tone, then winked at her adoptive father, jumped up and down, and led her downstairs. Zuo Luntai and Zhu Daishi looked out the window, watching Qiu Yisen and Guan Renmei step out of the "Three Yuan Hotel". Zhu Daishi's face was sad, with tears in her eyes, she murmured: "Zuo Luntai, your plan to steal treasure has been exposed, as long as there is any movement, you may be captured at any time!" Zuo Luntai was confident and said, "Don't worry, Qiu Yisen is only here to seek peace!" "No! He knows your movements and will call the police at any time!" Zuo Lun Tai Gege laughed and said: "Friends on the rivers and lakes will not call the police, otherwise he will show his incompetence!" "I do not understand what you mean……" "It's because you don't understand 'jianghu dao'! Qiu Yisen is famous, if he informs the police, he won't have to mess around when he runs outside in the future!" “但是他为了保护宝物不被盗窃，可以不择手段！” “仇奕森绝不会这样做，否则他就不会有那样大的名气！大家也不会称他为'老狐狸'了！” 朱黛诗还是想不通，又说：“关人美一再表现和仇奕森亲切，是有何作用吗？” “小妮子是希望能对仇奕森多作了解，知己知彼，对我们终归是有利的！”
“金氏企业大楼”的第三层，原是“金氏轮船公司”，只因为近年来业务不振，又发生过海难事件，把轮船全给赔了，业务便告停顿，所有的员工解雇，剩下的只有一座成真空状态的办公室。 为了避讳，仇奕森让金燕妮打开了该楼，利用这空着的办公室做他的临时办事处，那里向装着有好几部电话，连络也颇方便。 仇奕森有许多问题没敢和金京华商量，金京华浮浪惯了，交朋友也没有选择，嘴巴又留不住事情，“成事不足，败事有余”，容易将事情搞砸。他唯一可商讨问题的是金燕妮，可信赖的青年是何立克，这一男一女，几乎就成为他的助臂了。 为了要拉拢左轮泰，仇奕森答应过协同解决“满山农场”的问题。 “满山农场”和蒙戈利将军府之间的冲突，虽然曾经过左轮泰和关人美的一番解说，但他俩说的话是否可靠？有无偏袒？或是故意出此难题？仇奕森都得加以考虑，因此，仇奕森需要该案的资料。 仇奕森让金燕妮和何立克两人翻旧报纸剪新闻资料，加以整理一番，藉以了解全案。整个“金氏轮船公司”的办公室都摆满了各种文字的旧报纸。 金燕妮很觉纳闷，仇奕森为什么对该案发生了兴趣，这和博览会的盗宝防范会有关系吗？ 仇奕森还希望获得法院方面的资料，“满山农场”和蒙戈利将军府都聘有律师，双方面的律师仇奕森都希望去拜访一番。 “燕妮，你对'蒙地卡罗之夜'可有与趣？在邦坝水库的'皇后酒店'举行，又是'仁慈会'的把戏，慈善募捐，不过在此假日中，一定怪热闹的！”何立克翻着报纸，忽地发现一则新闻，打算邀金燕妮去玩乐一番。 金燕妮冷嗤说：“谁有兴趣去赌博？不过这种场合，家兄是一定不会放弃的！” 仇奕森倒是注意到了“邦坝水库”几个字，他怔怔地问：“邦坝水库是什么地方？” “啊，那是墨城新近兴建最大的水库，是风景幽美的观光区，差不多光临墨城的观光客，该水库是第一游览胜地！”何立克解释说：“那儿有足以向世界夸耀的水力发电厂、自来水厂，最豪华的酒店、夜总会、儿童游乐场、动物园等各项设施。” 仇奕森会注意水库，就是联想到发电厂的关系。便说：“该水库的水力发电厂供电量大吗？” “现在墨城全市的电力，已几乎全都由邦坝水库供应了！”何立克说。 仇奕森两眼炯炯再问：“那么，假如邦坝水库的发电厂电路故障的话，墨城是否会陷于停电，全市黑暗呢？” 何立克和金燕妮面面相觑，他俩都不清楚仇奕森又有着什么样的想法。 “这种事情在墨城从未发生过！”何立克怔怔地回答。 “仇叔叔，你又想到了什么？我们很难懂呢！”金燕妮也怔怔地说。 “你说'蒙地卡罗之夜'是什么人主持的？”仇奕森接过何立克手中的报纸，找寻他发现的新闻报告。 “'仁慈会'主持的！”何立克说。 “'仁慈会'是什么性质？社会团体吗？” “是的，都是社会上有地位、对慈善事业热心的社会名流组成的，经常募捐或举办各种吸引人的演出，收入所得悉数拨归慈善机构，家父也是其中一份子，他是监事！”何立克说。 金燕妮忙说：“蒙戈利将军是该会的名誉会长！” 仇奕森笑了起来，说：“那么'蒙地卡罗之夜'，蒙戈利将军也会出现了？” “不一定，这个老家伙年纪大，病痛多，他只要名誉，事情都是由手下人办理！” “不过也可能出现，对吗？”仇奕森面呈得意之色，说：“我想骆驼和左轮泰都不会放弃这种机会，和他们在那地方碰头，倒是很有趣的事情呢！” “仇叔叔假如有兴趣，我替你弄请帖！”何立克一方面是讨好仇奕森，同时他想，金燕妮也一定会答应与他作伴了。 “一定需要请帖才能入场吗？” “这是社会名流的派头！” “那么我需要七八份请帖！” “仇叔叔是打算另外邀请朋友去吗？”何立克再问。 仇奕森点头说：“这样就无需左轮泰和骆驼另外再去动脑筋了！”
这天，“豪华酒店”骆驼的房间里，侍者送来了“蒙地卡罗之夜”的三份请帖，是用仁慈会的信封装着的，上面写着“骆驼教授收”。 骆驼暗觉奇怪，是谁会送他这样的三份请帖呢？他正在动脑筋，企图设法弄得几份请帖，不想得来全不费功夫。 这原因，是“蒙地卡罗之夜”是在墨城最著名的邦坝水库举行，骆驼曾在附近勘查过，若想博览会停电的话，在会场附近或是在墨城动脑筋，非常的不简单，所以，骆驼获悉“仁慈会”在邦坝水库举行“蒙地卡罗之夜”的消息，就企图设法获取请帖，先到邦坝水库去查探一番。 骆驼曾和帐房经理商量过，他自称有赌博癖好，又希望到邦坝水库去观光一番，因之，请帐房设法替他索取请帖。但是“仁慈会”是由社会名流组成的，发请帖由他们自列名单，认为够得上资格赌博的人才会发出邀请，很多地方他们都不买帐，不过那位经理应允尽力替骆驼设法。 骆驼又动脑筋，让贺希妮冒认蒙戈利将军府的关系索取，但那是非常冒险的事情，常老么也出动设法，向印刷厂动脑筋。 忽地，竟有人自动将请帖送上门，是谁送的？Nobody knows. 骆驼向送请帖进来的侍者询问。侍者回答说： “有人把请帖送到柜台就自行离去，什么话都没留下！” 骆驼猜想，也许是经理真为他尽了力，于是不疑有他。那位经理也正好领功了事。 骆驼已经计划好，侦查邦坝水库的分电所，一定非要孙阿七出马不可。 孙阿七是“飞贼”出身，有飞檐走壁之能，分电所的输电路线，那一个枢钮是输往墨城、和博览会有关连的，需得很快查出。 夏落红也需要参加这个盛会，他的头脑灵活，可以给孙阿七接应，计划将来停电的设计。 贺希妮曾经冒认和蒙戈利将军关系至深，她没有请帖是不像话的。因之，骆驼计划好，分给贺希妮一张请帖，夏落红和孙阿七一张，骆驼和常老么一张请帖。 每帖两人，照说是应该邀请女伴同行的，好在他们是游客身分也就无所谓了，贺希妮只身挂了单，骆驼教她邀酒店的保镖占天霸同行，藉以显耀身分特殊。
“满山农场”也有人送去请帖二份。 左轮泰的情形和骆驼相同，他查探过博览会周围的环境，要动脑筋停电的话，很费手脚。邦坝水库举办“蒙地卡罗之夜”很吸引他的注意。墨城有专供游览取阅的旅游手册，上面有一页就是专门介绍邦坝水库的，说明了墨城的电力供应，有三分之二依赖邦坝水库供应。 博览会盗宝只需停电一分多钟，电子防盗设备失效，他便可以从容盗出宝物。 “满山农场”若未遭遇惨变时，每逢有这样的盛会，会自动有请帖送上门。慈善募捐的大户，名册上也少不了会有“满山农场”的。可是“满山农场”经过巨变，已至家散人亡的程度，还有官司累身，“满山农场”的几个字就在名册上剔除了，不再会有请帖送上门啦。 左轮泰需要了解“邦坝水库”，得设法弄一张请帖到手，可是请帖竟自动上门了，难道说，“满山农场”还没有在名册上剔除吗？ 朱黛诗很觉奇怪、她说：“'仁慈会'一连举办好几次慈善大会，我们都没有收到请帖，为什么这一次又特别了？” 左轮泰说：“说不定是办事人员的疏忽！” “不！”朱黛诗说：“每逢有这种盛会时，蒙戈利将军的帐房佛烈德就会来邀请我做他的女伴，藉此炫耀他们的权势，名单被剔除，也是这批人捣的鬼，他们用心险恶，怎会疏忽呢？” “你认为佛烈德还会来邀请你吗？” “一定会来的！他会借此机会逼我就范，接纳他们的条件！”朱黛诗说时，有无限的感伤。 关人美脑筋一转，说：“会不会是仇奕森捣的鬼？他识破你的企图了！” 左轮泰不乐，说：“你把仇奕森看得太神奇了，他能老走在我们的前面吗？” 关人美呶着小嘴，两眼灼灼地说：“你想，骆驼和他的党羽也会趁着'蒙地卡罗之夜'的机会，到邦坝水库去吗？” 左轮泰被提醒了，凝呆了半晌，呐呐说：“你倒提醒我了，我们是三方斗法，也说不定是骆驼，他在试探我是否同样在邦坝水库上动念头！” “这两份请帖，不是骆驼送来的，就是仇奕森送来的，他们两方正在进行和你竞赛！”关人美说。 朱黛诗摇头说：“我曾经多次游览邦坝水库，那是一座非常雄伟的工程，机构繁多，特别是水力发电方面，有变电所、分电所、蓄电所等等，不是该电力机构的工程人员，谁会搞得清楚可以在那儿切断电源呢？我老觉得这件事情太过冒险了！” 忽地，一部豪华汽车驶至“三元饭店”前，嘟，嘟揿了喇叭。 雷兰兰已飞步奔上了楼梯，她呐呐向朱黛诗说：“蒙戈利将军府的帐房先生佛烈德又来找你了！” 朱黛诗柳眉倒竖，异常气愤地说：“对不？他们是一点也不放松的！” 左轮泰诅咒说：“岂有此理，简直是欺人太甚了！”他拉开窗帘向外望，只见那部豪华汽车漆着有蒙戈利将军府的旗帜。后车厢的玻璃窗口探出一只脑袋，半秃头，鹰钩鼻，络腮胡子正好围住他的嘴巴，远看好似没有眉毛，两只圆亮的老鼠眼……凭他的长相竟然想不择手段追求朱黛诗，也不自己照照镜子。 朱黛诗推开窗户，高声说：“佛烈德先生，又有何指教？” 佛烈德下车一鞠躬，扬高了他手中的一份请帖，说：“朱小姐，我能有荣幸邀请你给我作伴，参加'蒙地卡罗之夜'的盛会？” 朱黛诗叱斥说：“下次再擅自踏进我农场的土地，我就用枪打你！” 佛烈德嬉皮笑脸说：“黛诗小姐，不要紧的，我在等候着你的回心转意，总有一天，我想，你会接受我的邀请的！” 朱黛诗恼了火，一只玻璃杯飞到街面上去了，“乒”的一声，砸得粉碎。 佛烈德还是那样厚颜，深深一鞠躬，然后走回汽车里去，司机发动汽车，又揿了喇叭，汽车扬长而去。 朱黛诗异常激动，转身向左轮泰说：“我说过佛烈德绝对不放弃机会的！” 关人美很为朱黛诗打抱不平，说：“你就这样忍气吞声吗？” “在这种环境之下，我又能如何呢？”朱黛诗已是热泪盈眶了。 左轮泰咬牙切齿说：“这种人，非得收拾他不可！” 关人美说：“现在的问题，'蒙地卡罗之夜'请帖是从何来的？” 左轮泰说：“管他呢！邦坝水库我们是非去不可的，不论是谁邀请我们，我们都得感激他呢！”
