C180 Flowering Room

"Sir, this morning, the Chinese Army Green Camp sent out soldiers to purchase a total of 50 pigs, 2 big carts of cabbages, some white rice and noodles, and half a carton of liquor …"

"Reporting to Lord, The yamen of the same knowledge has already started preparing for today's banquet. Coastal building's cooks and waiters have already entered The yamen of the same knowledge …"

"The first company has made all its preparations. All equipment has been inspected and orders to rest have been issued …"

"Reporting to my lord, from last night to this morning, there have been three waves of messengers from the Purging Demons that have been killed. Their corpses have already been hidden, this is a secret order that they carried with them …"

"My lord, our tamed falcons have flown up outside the city. Ten falcons have been sent out to guarantee that not a single carrier pigeon will be able to fly out …"

In the morning, at the main house of the Xiao family, when the sky was just starting to brighten, Xiao Letian, who was practicing Tai Chi with Dragon Lord, was already surrounded by the order soldiers.

When Xiao Letian's two sets of punches were finished, his forehead started to perspire. Go back and tell Sima Yun what's going on in the second company, are they still not going to rest? "If there's a quest at night, you should just go to sleep during the day …"

The entire day, the Tanggu City was immersed in a state of restlessness. Xiao Letian took care of all the matters in the morning as if nothing had happened, and spent the morning with Ma Xiu and Mike in the overseas bank to discuss the matters of the Special Zone. In the afternoon, he even went to the bathroom to take a beautiful bath.

Other than Dragon Lord and a few guards, there was only manager Fan Lian who attended the banquet with Xiao Letian. He had already written out the excuse that Zhou Mingkui wanted to drink together and mediate the conflict between Fan Lian and Fan Ru, the two brothers.

To be honest, Zhou Mingkui's excuse was not bad, Fan Ru pestering Xiao Letian like this was not really a problem, it was good that he was able to settle everything today, so as to not waste time twice.

"Good luck, Lord Zhou!"

"Aiya, foreign Manager Fan, it's been a few days since I last saw you. You can drink two more cups tonight. Your big brother has already arrived. Please come into the garden to serve tea …"

"Mr. Xiao! "You came, quickly invite them, you really are an immortal. Qing San Ye and I worked so hard but we couldn't convince these troublesome people, but in the end you were successful in everything you did …"

Zhou Mingkui stood at the second door to welcome them. When his eyes met with Xiao Letian's, he hurriedly blinked a few times as a warning was extremely obvious. When Zhou Mingkui looked at the four to five guards behind Xiao Letian, his face instantly turned white.

"Why did you bring so few people?" Don't think that the Dragon Lord is omnipotent. There are a lot of experts under the surnamed Sun's command! " Zhou Mingkui said in a low voice.

Xiao Letian patted his chest as if he was confident, and swaggered into the second door. Seeing Xiao Letian's uncaring expression, Lord Zhou was so anxious that his forehead was covered in sweat.

The banquet was placed in a warm room in the rear flower garden of the yamen. Lord Zhou was a person who loved flowers, his own flower house was rather famous in the Tanggu.

Fan Ru and Sun Sanhu had already been waiting inside for a long time, seeing that the main character had entered, they both stood up and cupped their hands in greeting. They had originally wanted to say a few words of courtesy, but discovered that Xiao Letian did not even bother to reply, and instead went to watch the show.

"Aiyo, this chrysanthemum blossom is so beautiful, Lord Zhou is so elegant … Look, these pieces of glass windows can be lit up, and they're also warm. This must have cost a lot of money, right? La Mei... "What a beautiful pot of La Mei. I'll take this pot and send my wife back to play …"

Zhou Mingkui anxiously used his handkerchief to wipe his sweat: "Alright, alright, alright, if you like it, we should move away. Let's take a seat.

Xiao Letian's rudeness almost made Sun Sanhu angry to the point that his nose became crooked. He thought to himself that this brat really did not know his place and closed the gates of hell with nothing to do, yet was so relaxed. If you turn around, I have a hundred ways to kill you.

At this time, Sun Sanhu looked at Xiang Shaolong and said, "Aiyo, this is Mr. Xiao's guardian, right? This is a private banquet, isn't it inappropriate for you to have a bodyguard here? "

Xiao Letian rolled his eyes at him. "Who are you? Do you have the right to speak here? "My crotch is tied tight. Don't always jump out and say whatever you want …"

"You …" Sun Sanhu was so angry that he was about to attack. At this time, the position where Dragon Lord was just standing changed, and he had already sealed off all paths in which Dragon Lord could attack Xiao Letian.

Not only was the protection strict, the angle was very tricky and did not affect Xiao Letian's line of sight, it was indeed the famous North Dragon in the martial arts world.

At this time, Fan Ru opened his mouth and said, "Cough cough …" This old man is the oldest on this table. Then let me act like an old man. Why is there such a strong smell of gunpowder! "

Xiao Letian hated these kinds of people who relied on their seniority the most. Moreover, this old fogey actually wanted to sell Hu Niu, which made Xiao Letian even more furious. If it wasn't for the fact that Fan Ru still had some feelings for his brother, Xiao Letian would have taken care of him long ago.

"Fan Ru, Royal Merchant Fan! You are indeed a servant of the royal family. We can't compare to you in bearing. How can one of your subordinates be so domineering? The bosses haven't spoken yet. Do you think your servants have the right to speak first? "Your grandma …"

With just one sentence, it had made Fan Ru and Sun Sanhu's faces turn red, especially when Sun Sanhu scolded them until their ears turned red. From the bottom of his heart, he truly looked down upon Xiao Letian, the great and royal secret protector.

Just wait for me to take care of you. When I get back, I will kill you instantly, using your body to fish out fish hooks one by one. I will use your body to go fishing by the river, Sun Sanhu scolded angrily in his heart.

Just as the atmosphere in the greenhouse was tense, the guards in the small courtyard seemed to have heard the sounds. They did not know that in the house surrounded by the flower rooms, Sun Sanhu had hidden more than thirty martial arts experts, they all sheathed their bows and blades.

At this time, it was already past six in the evening and the sky was completely dark. Suddenly, dense footsteps came from the public road outside the city, and many curious villagers went out to size up, seeing that countless Green Battalion s were heading towards the Tanggu City in darkness. Everyone was silent.

The farmers didn't dare to get involved with such matters. They hurriedly locked the gates and became cowards. Even the oil lamps were extinguished.

The encirclement around Xiao Letian had already started to close, and Xiao Letian was still bickering with Fan Ru and the others.

Old Mr. Fan Ru, you are Royal Merchant, and walk on a different path from us. I'm afraid that you won't get used to it even if you join us here in the water, and doing business at sea with the foreigners is different from doing business with you, you wouldn't be able to explain the rules here, and I can only accept your kind intentions. Xiao Letian tore off a chicken leg and gnawed on it greedily as he spoke.

Fan Ru frowned slightly: "Oh Mr. Xiao, my brother and I are discussing business, it isn't good for you to get involved, right?"

"Involve?" "How can you call it meddling!" Xiao Letian threw the bone in his hand onto the ground and said, "Letian Firm has my share, don't forget that the name of the foreign trade was actually given by me!"

"Humph!" Your shares? "You can't fool me with your tricks …" Fan Ru's eyes were filled with disdain: "Mr. Xiao, don't take all of us from the Great Qing to be fools, you said that you have the shares, tell me, how much capital did you invest? How much money can you, a naked two devils who returned from overseas, have? "

"You tricked and tricked all along the way. Even the bandits of Taihang Mountains were tricked by you. Don't even think about hiding this from me." I've already calculated all the ways to make money for you. Those bandits only have a family of ten to two hundred thousand. The amount of money you earn by writing a book wouldn't exceed thirty thousand taels … Of course, you took the High Scholar Huang's property during the Tanggu's rebellion, so you should be able to get at least two to three hundred thousand. "

Fan Ru tapped his fingers on the table, and said with grief: "Look, didn't I do anything wrong by calculating for you? All the silver taels added together amounted to five or six hundred thousand silver taels. That was already a sky-high price … Oh, I almost forgot, you probably plundered quite a bit in Ryukyu, but Ryukyu is only a county. Even if you pluck it up to the height of three feet, how much silver can you have? "Don't forget, by that time, the Oceanic Society had already established itself …"

Xiao Letian was stupefied, and when he heard it, his old face flushed red, while the always stern Dragon Lord also burst out laughing. This uninformed old man's mind was completely filled with the thoughts of the rich countryside. How would he know what methods Xiao Letian had used to amass money.

Fan Ru didn't even notice that the others were laughing at him, and continued to look on as if nothing had happened. "Five hundred and six hundred thousand silver, I can't afford to support such a huge foreign bank, so the one with the biggest shares is my little brother.

The more Fan Ru said, the angrier he got: "You brat, relying on your knowledge of western studies and your good looks, coaxing Hu Niu to deceive my old brother, isn't your goal not to take over my brother's family property?" At this time, Fan Ru looked at his own blood brother and said in an unsatisfied tone.

"And you! Are you so willing to let him bully you? Are you so willing to work as a laborer to make money for him? "You're really stupid …"

At this time, Xiao Letian could no longer hold it in, he laughed out loud: "Hahaha, you're so funny, you're just too funny. "Hahaha, look at your seriousness. It sounds like you're speaking the truth. Hahaha …"

"You, you, you!" Fan Ru's blood pressure rose, he had never seen such a shameless person. His schemes had been exposed and he was still laughing, did he not understand what was called shame?

Fan Lian kept on kicking his brother under the table. "Stop it, stop it for a while …"

"Kick, kick, kick! Why do you keep kicking me?" You are truly befuddled, why would such a fool like you appear in Fan family! " Fan Ru was already muddleheaded and could not understand what the hell was going on.

"Manager Fan, quickly report this to your big brother. Just tell him about how many big deals we made last month. Let him know how much money it takes to open a bank, and let him understand how high the Heavens are!"
