He could see clearly that this Duke Gu Jian had absolute power over everything. Whether to build transportation or not, as well as how to build and how to open the trade, all had the final say with him... So before officially finalizing it, he had to bargain with him first. It would be best if everything could be settled under the table.
Let's stabilize the channel first before talking about infiltration or not. You have to eat one bite at a time... Fortunately, this should not be a difficult task. He noticed just now that Cheng Gujian was not affected much by his ability, but he was really interested, and even had a bit of fanaticism.
But then again, he didn't think Xie Qingyan and Jiang Chengcheng hadn't considered these things, and they were simply being sarcastic because they were jealous.
You guys, pattern.
"Humph."
The white-haired loli looked very proud and said with a giggle, "I'm the only one who got it right. Dad, are you going to give me a reward?"
Xu Shi was not stingy and gave her a kiss on the face, and the old lady instantly smiled like a flower.
"...Okay, okay, so how are you going to talk about this?"
Jiang Chengcheng and Xie Qingyan turned their heads away at the same time, their thoughts were exposed. Isn't that jealous?
"Let's try and see if we can make friends."
Xu Shi narrowed his eyes, "I have prepared all the gifts."
As she was talking, Xiaomei also knocked on the door, "Mr. Xu, I have done what you asked me to do."
When I opened the door, I saw the other party commanding people to carry in a few boxes.
The box was opened, and it was filled with gold bars and silver bricks.
"Master, where did you get... so much money?"
The room was suddenly filled with a vulgar smell, and Pan Ling was stunned for a moment.
“It always has.”
Xu Shi laughed and said, "Isn't this what you brought with you when you boarded the ship?"
This is indeed the case. Although the City of Night Sin abolished physical currency a long time ago and replaced it with credit points as a means of transaction, Xu Shi had considered a long time ago that the situation might not be the same in other places.
Maybe Night Sin City is an exception... So to be on the safe side, he collected a large amount of gold and silver long before setting out to sea - the value of these precious metals in Night Sin City is not as high as imagined, and most of their uses are in industry.
The result was just as he expected. The trading system of the Hualan Empire was still based on the gold and silver standard. If that was the case, why not wait any longer?
This is just a small part of it. There are nearly a hundred boxes on his command ship...
"And these, please keep them, benefactor."
Xiaomei handed him a few more purple cards, "As you requested, I have deposited 50% in the magic crystal card. You can access it whenever you need it. The rest has also been moved here."
"Thanks a lot."
Xu Shi took the cards and distributed one to everyone, including the two sisters Feng and Ling.
"Isn't this... no need?"
The two sisters didn't dare to answer, "We, we have our own pocket money..."
They were more shocked in their hearts, knowing that their master (father) was no ordinary person, but they didn't expect him to be so wealthy!
But if you can't take it, it's already a good thing to accept them as apprentices, and you can't take the money.
"What are you talking about? This is your money."
Xu Shi's tone was unyielding. "Didn't Brother Pan give me some tuition? I asked Xiaomei to deposit it into the card, and you two can each pay half."
After hearing what he said, the two of them took it carefully.
No wonder he didn't want the money his father gave him. Although that was certainly not all of Pan Cheng's savings, it was still far less than that, not to mention the few gold and silver coins in their pockets...
Suddenly they became wealthy women. Both sisters felt a sense of unreality. They felt a little dizzy for a moment and had no idea how to spend the money.
"How you spend your money is your business. I have no intention of interfering in this regard."
Xu Shi smiled and said, "Eating, drinking, gambling and love are all fine. Of course, if you really fall, don't come and complain to me about your poverty."
"...Thank you, Master (Master)!"
Pan Feng and Pan Ling nodded vigorously. Needless to say, they didn't want to be involved in these bad habits.
"You two little sisters are rich now, shouldn't you treat me to something delicious?"
Xia Ke'an jumped down from Xu Shi's arms, "I will invite you whether you agree or not! I saw a lot just now..."
"Oh, okay."
Pan Feng did not refuse. She liked this little senior sister very much. She was so cute.
"Then Master, shall we go now?"
Pan Ling also noticed it. Maybe the master wanted to send them away...
"Go ahead, celebrate for yourselves."
Xu Shi smiled and waved his hand. After they left happily, he looked at Shen Qin again and said, "You go too and take care of their safety."
"……Yes."
Shen Qin didn't want to do this kind of thing, but compared to not being around this bastard, she wouldn't refuse.
"Oh? What do you want to do by sending them away?"
Xia Wuyou also noticed it, and came over and asked with interest.
"Instead of asking what I want, it's better to ask what you want?"
Xu Shi stretched out his dirty hands and said shamelessly.
"...I know, but you still ask."
Xia Xiaomao's face turned red. What do you think she wants to do?
The fact is that they were also affected by Xu Shi's ability just now. Of course, they did not feel fear, but another kind of "negative emotion" was stimulated in them.
*want.
This scene seemed familiar, because coincidentally, she was also present when Xu Shi tested his abilities last time, and she had been confused and started to eat with him at that time...
To be honest, her current situation is even worse than last time. She has been teaching her apprentices these days, so how can she have time to spend with Xu Shi? Not to mention that the bad man also patronized Shen Qin on the boat... It's no exaggeration to say that she is almost suffocating to death.
"Isn't there me?"
Jiang Chengcheng said in dissatisfaction, "Wuyou, don't even think about running away... I'm also clingy now."
Xu Shi laughed. He was never a person who favored one over the other.
"Elbow, come into the house with me!"
The girls didn't object. After all, the first threesome was the three of them. Since then, they have no objection to it at all. Sometimes they even think it's more fun to be together...
Xia Wuyou and Jiang Chengcheng exchanged glances, and after entering the inner room, they knelt down in front of him tacitly, unbuttoned their clothes and held their hands, "Are you satisfied with this service, husband?"
Xu Shi was surprised that they also started to speak so half-literately, and was even more surprised at their clever synchronization and the perfect amount of pressure.
“My evaluation is that I am very satisfied.”
Wait, did I forget who?
"you……"
Listening to the lewd music coming from the room, Xie Qingyan stood there, wanting to say something but stopping himself.
Only now did she realize that she had been inexplicably isolated again... Just now she seemed to be jealous with Jiang Chengcheng, but she could make up for it the next time, but she couldn't.
The key point is that the two of them haven't brought you to play with them—although the dog woman thinks she can't be as proficient as they are, the last secret kiss was the closest contact between her and the dog man...
But that's the attitude. Calling a fiancée a wife? What a joke! We are the real ones.
"...so annoying!"
Xie Qingyan stamped his feet fiercely, and went to his room angrily to bite his handkerchief.
Hello, this is what a loser is like.
……
It seemed that all the pain in the world was now concentrated on Xie Qingyan alone. Anyway, Xu Shi was very happy, Xia Wuyou was very happy, and Jiang Chengcheng was also very happy.
The sisters Feng and Ling who were sent out to play, as well as Xia Ke'an were also very happy.
Children's happiness is very simple. Shopping and eating delicious food can make them very happy.
"Here, little senior sister, this is for you."
Pan Feng bought a lot of gifts for the white-haired loli and had a lot of fun himself.
What Xu Shi said was right, she really wanted to celebrate, after all, she knew that the people of the empire had always looked down on them Yinsongdao people, and now she was proud and elated, not to mention how happy she was.
The key is that you don't need to care about money... This is how the poor become rich, so you have to spend it well!
"Hey, thank you."
The old lady laughed so hard that her eyes were invisible, but this guy was greedy and started to ask Pan Ling for a bribe, "What about yours?"
"...You can't spend money like this. You need to have some planning."
"After all, you just don't want to treat us, right?"
Xia Ke'an snorted, "I don't care, at least Xiaoling, you have to treat me to a meal later, otherwise I will go to dad and say bad things about you."
You are just simply enjoying the pleasure of soliciting bribes... Pan Ling could sense that she would not really do that, and she just felt that her junior sister was too childish.
No, she is a child.
"Yes, Xiaoling, you please!"
Pan Feng and the white-haired loli stood on the same front and bullied her together, "Don't be unhappy, no matter how you plan, you can spend this little money, right?"
"I'm not unhappy..."
Pan Ling didn't know whether to laugh or cry. Why would her sister be like this?
"Then why are you so stern? Even on the island you should... smile."
"Oh."
Pan Ling forced a smile and said, "I just think that the master is really amazing, so I felt a little emotional for a moment."
This is the truth. Xu Shi had taught her before that the prerequisite for doing what one wants is to have the ability to back it up. Thinking about it this way, isn't that what the master just did?
Although they looked very polite, their methods were actually not gentle at all. It was no exaggeration to say that they were ruthless... And those imperial people, who she had previously thought she could not afford to offend, did not have any temper at all about this, and even if they did, they did not dare to vent it.
