After the introduction, Lin Haoming finally sat down under Gong Lihai's kind words, and then ordered the maid to serve the dishes.
The dishes were all served at once, and Gong Lihai specially asked the maids to go out. Obviously, he didn't want too many eyes and ears here.
The maids were used to this, and after putting some things aside, they left the place one after another. After leaving, they even opened a soundproof circle.
Lin Haoming also smiled slightly when he saw this.
Shen Yuan, the hostess of the reception room, took the initiative to pick up the wine bottle with a smile, poured a glass for Gong Lihai first, and then came to Lin Haoming.
Seeing this, Lin Haoming deliberately said: "Sir Shen, you should give the two Tongzhi adults a full meal first."
"Haha, Lin Xunzhi, you are the guest of honor here today. We are the guests, how can we overshadow the guest and take the host?" Before Shen Yuan could answer, Qiu San came to his rescue first.
With just one sentence, Lin Haoming discovered that this city might be far more complicated than he thought. Although he didn't want to get involved in the struggles inside, some relationships had to be figured out clearly.
Now that he had spoken, Lin Haoming also took the initiative and said: "Since Lord Tongzhi has said it, I will be disrespectful."
When everyone's wine glasses were filled, Gong Lihai took the initiative to stand up, picked up the wine glass and said: "Everyone, Lin Xunjian is the pride of our Dishan City. From our Dishan City to Tianmanfu Taimiao Hall, he then He killed everyone in the Taimiao Realm and made great contributions to Kun County's victory in winning the top spot in the Taimiao Realm. Now that he has advanced to Shenxuan and returned to our Dishan City, we should also congratulate Lin Xunjian!"
"What the Lord City Lord said is absolutely true." Shen Yuan was the first to agree.
Others also raised their glasses. When Lin Haoming saw this, he could only take advantage of the situation and said: "Thanks to Lord Tongpan's previous respect. If she hadn't looked at me differently, I wouldn't have had the chance to go to Taimiao Hall, and nothing would have happened later." .”
"Lin Xunjian is right. Gong Tongpan is indeed a wise man, but Lin Xunjian is indeed a pearl!" After Lin Haoming finished speaking, Shen Yuan agreed.
Gong Lihai glanced at Lin Haoming specifically. Others didn't know about the relationship between Lin Haoming and Gong Xinlan, but Gong Lihai did. Did Lin Haoming say this on purpose? Are you reminding him? Or is it just a scene?
"No matter what, Lin Xunjian returned home in fine clothes. Let's have a drink!" Gong Lihai planned to take a look before talking.
"Do it!" Lin Haoming didn't hesitate and drank the whole glass of wine.
"What kind of wine is this? It's better than Jiuhua Niang!" After the wine entered his stomach, Lin Haoming felt warm inside his body. Following this warm current, the vitality of heaven and earth slowly began to spread out in his body, and It finally gathered in his dantian, but the sweet taste between his teeth and cheeks was still there, which really surprised him.
"Hey, this is Tianjinglou's own Tianjing wine. We don't know what it is made from. This is Tianjinglou's secret. Although Jiuhua wine is expensive, as long as there are Yuanjing, You can still buy it in Dishuang City, but Tianjing Wine, like our Tianjing Tower here in Dishuang City, only supplies one jar a year, and this jar was set by Mr. Zhu many years ago." Gong Lihai took the initiative to explain , after finishing speaking, he looked at Zhu Li specially.
Lin Haoming knew that Zhu Li would be talked about sooner or later, but he didn't expect it to happen so soon. Since Gong Lihai had said so, he couldn't pretend that he couldn't hear it, so he specially raised his hand towards Zhu Li and said, "Let Mr. Zhu do it today." It’s a waste!”
"Haha, Lin Xunjing is too polite. My nephew offended you earlier, so this wine will be used as an apology to Zhu. If Lin Xunqing likes it, I still have a jar hidden in my house. When I get back, I will order it to be delivered to your house. ." Zhu Li said in a friendly manner.
Lin Haoming knew that as long as he agreed, he would have to let him go, and he would be reconciled with the other party. He did not need to offend the other party, and Zhu Li could get his nephew back, and Gong Lihai's reputation as a peacemaker would also be taken care of. Everyone was happy. .
However, Lin Haoming did not agree immediately. Instead, he asked with a smile: "I heard that the person behind Tianjing Tower is an important figure in Kun County. Lord City Lord, you are the brother of the Lord County Sheriff. Do you know his origin? "
Seeing Lin Haoming asking himself this question, Gong Lihai frowned for a moment, but soon showed a smile and said: "The boss behind Tianjing Tower is indeed a bit mysterious, but I do know something about it. This person's surname is Fang. , his father was originally the general of our Kun County, but he later fell during the War of Ten Thousand Demons. However, although he died, many people were promoted by the general at that time, even the county governor was taken care of by him, so In Kun County, although there are no high-ranking officials on the surface, they are still very important privately."
Lin Haoming originally just changed the topic, but he didn't expect Tianjing Tower to have such an origin. If Gong Lihai is right, the boss of Tianjing Tower is not the uncle of Gao Fangfang and Xinzhu. This is interesting, but Gong Lihai Hai Bu mentioned the matter of Fang Ya and Gong Xuanyu, which was obviously intentional.
"This is the first time that the official knows about it. I didn't expect that Tianjing Tower has such a big background." Shen Yuan answered deliberately again.
"Master Miyagi is right. When I was still in the army, I heard my old boss talk about General Fang. It's a pity that the old general died and no one in the Fang family's descendants can inherit his legacy in the army!" Shang Ying couldn't help but wonder. Sighed.
"Although I haven't continued to gain a foothold in the military, accumulating a rich industry is another way out. You know, this jar of wine alone is worth ten nianjing!" Gong Lihai deliberately said the high price of Tianjing wine. , also reminding Lin Haoming that Zhu Li was indeed sincere in compensating.
In the Heavenly Realm of Divine Profound Realm, one can serve as an official of the seventh rank or above, and the salary of a seventh-rank official is indeed several times higher than that of an eighth-rank official. However, officials below the seventh rank only have three moon crystals, while those above the seventh rank have six. As for Lin Haoming, the patrol envoy under the seventh grade, he only has exactly one Nian Jing. Lin Haoming has been in Taimiao Hall for a long time, so he doesn't like this small salary, but after careful calculation, two jars of wine, twenty Nian Jing. For a sixth-grade official like Zhu Li, Nian Jing's salary was several years old, which was indeed a big deal.
Gong Lihai circled around again and let Lin Haoming know that when he had to respond, as the person with the lowest official position at this time, he put down the wine glass in his hand and said lightly: "Master Zhu, let's not talk about your nephew's presence. There are so many people in my patrol office, and he openly wanted to bribe me on the first day I took office. As a patrol officer, if I cannot enforce the law impartially, I am afraid that my position as patrol commissioner will be ruined. He’s not even qualified to be the official, so Lin accepted Mr. Zhu’s kindness.”
Hearing that Lin Haoming rejected Zhu Li directly, everyone showed surprise on their faces. Only Jia Kai showed such a look in his eyes. Although it was just a flash, it was also seen by Lin Haoming who paid special attention, and Gong Li At this time, Hai also frowned obviously, obviously a little dissatisfied with Lin Haoming.
