"Stay or go as you like, I won't stop you."
Han Dongwen's voice echoed in Zhan Taiyi's mind.
Without any hesitation, he grabbed the cinnabar stick and carved the word "Go" fiercely.
The dog emperor, the dead and faint king, still can’t see the situation clearly, and still doesn’t want to borrow money?
Well, when Simeng is isolated, you will definitely have to pay the price.
It is impossible for the National Finance Department not to be aware of this naked threat called transaction in Blood Harbor.
Letting people out of anger is a sign of stupidity!
After Zhan Taiyi finished writing, he looked up and saw that the other three business envoys had already finished writing.
The papers were folded upside down and inward, and after making sure no one could see them, they were handed to Han Dongwen's hands.
The emperor even had time to swallow a sip of brandy in front of him, grabbed a hard candy and stuffed it into his mouth, and slowly unfolded the origami in front of him.
Zhan Taiyi looked at Han Dongwen and confirmed again and again in his heart.
Not named.
It was indeed unnamed. Even if he couldn't notice the guards hiding on the rafters, Gu Ya would definitely notice them.
No, really not.
The other three business envoys looked at Han Dongwen on the main seat and exchanged looks with each other.
"well……"
After a long time, Han Dongwen's sigh came.
"Two of you want to leave, and two of you want to stay."
He actually announced the results just like that.
Zhan Taiyi's eyes immediately glanced at all the business envoys present. Each of them looked at each other with sharp alertness in their eyes.
There are two people who want to stay?
Go, naturally you have your own vote, this is self-evident.
Is it the White Eagle Troop? Olimar? Zuling Kingdom?
"It doesn't matter, as I said before, I will never force you to stay."
Han Dongwen raised the small cup in front of him: "When you do business with Simeng, you are Simeng's customer. If there is a business group that wants to stay, Simeng will naturally protect their safety. If there is no business, you will leave the Simeng sea area. Simeng is also unable to provide security, so here’s what I have to say, everyone, let’s have a drink together!”
"Thank you, Your Highness!"
"Thank you, Your Highness!"
"Thank you, Your Highness!"
After drinking all the wine, the voting paper was crumpled into a ball and thrown into the fire, reflected in Zhan Taiyi's disdainful eyes.
Han Dongwen was talking about a clumsy threat.
No, not even a threat.
Once out of the high seas, Simeng could not guarantee the safety of the merchant group.
The subtext is that you may encounter threats.
What a joke, how dare Simeng?
Business groups from other countries withdrew from Simeng and were beaten on the back foot. Why did Simeng as a country make enemies of the four countries?
"At the end of the day, the Eight Treasure Emperor's Tip Group!"
The singing started again, and the jade plate was served. It was filled with bright golden chrysanthemums, surrounded by two plump and red crabs.
It's not a crab either. If you look closely, you can see that the usually hard crab shell is no longer a crab shell. Instead, it's made by beating fresh shrimps into meat paste, mixing it with starch into a mold, frying it, and coloring it with safflower, just like a crab shell. shaped shrimp crisps.
What is contained in this artificial crab shell is juicy and runny complete crab meat and crab paste. The troublesome parts such as the heart and the heart have been removed, leaving only this plump essence, with a fragrant aroma.
A maid came to help the guests disassemble the crabs into eight pieces - although the most troublesome crab shells had already been removed, so there was no need for such trouble.
So much trouble, just for a delicious bite.
At the end of the dinner, it was a pity that the oily wood tabletop was already riddled with holes.
"There is no banquet, and the two of you who still have to leave Simeng will officially open the Simeng Haizhou Port in a week. I wish those two Yang a safe journey!"
Han Dongwen paused and then said:
"A week later, it happens to be the Simeng New Year's Immortal Ceremony. Following the ceremony, I will be standing as the concubine. I regret that the two who are leaving cannot celebrate the ceremony together. The river lasts for a long time. See you in the future."
Everyone thanked and saluted together. Under the attention of everyone, Han Dongwen stood up and left this glorious palace together with Tilda.
——————————
Shaoqing, it’s night, on the top floor of Yanqing Tower.
After leaving the palace, the business group naturally does not need to be escorted by the National Finance Department.
Zhan Taiyi folded his hands and sat on a chair in the building, looking at the troupe on the stage.
Around him were three business envoys from the other three countries.
Urat of the Zuling Kingdom, Maratano of the White Eagle Army, and Hosu of Olimar.
Several people were not thinking about the show at all, they just looked at each other without saying a word and said nothing.
"ever"
Zhan Taiyi pulled out the short knife from his waist and thrust it on the table.
His eyes were like a shark's, scanning towards the remaining three people.
"Tell me, which two of them want to stay in Simeng?"
There was a brief silence.
The first one to speak was He Su from Olimar. He was so angry that even his beard trembled: "Zhan Taiyi, that's it for the two of them. Is it possible that you still can't trust Ben Hadan? Of course Olimar has to leave. !”
Yawenba
"letter?"
Zhan Taiyi clicked his tongue and his eyes became more fierce: "We are all in the business world. How much is the word "believe" worth? Is it worth 60,000 gold?"
"The White Eagles voted to go."
Maratanio, who was dressed in white, said in a calm tone: "The White Eagle Army always only sides with those who pay the most. Lieutenant General Taiyi should know this."
After hearing what he said, the remaining Zuling Kingdom merchant envoy Ulat quickly said: "Zuling Kingdom is also leaving. Lieutenant General, why would Zuling Kingdom want to offend Xue Gang now compared to Simeng?"
Zhan Tai laughed in anger, leaned on the back of the chair, and said happily:
"You're all leaving? I don't understand. It's already this time, why are you still so stubborn?"
He leaned forward suddenly, grabbed the short knife from the table, and pointed the sharp tip at the three people in front of him.
"Now that you are being stubborn, is it possible that I will still see you at Haizhou Port in a week's time?"
"Of course you can!"
Jose from Olimar waved his hand and said to Maratanio and Urat: "I advise you two to admit it quickly, otherwise what will you do? Then pretend to go to sea? Pretend to be real? "
"It's true, how can it be false?"
Maratanio was still not angry: "A week later, Blood Harbor will definitely see the White Eagle Troops business group at Haizhou Port."
"The same is true for Zuling Kingdom." Ulat continued.
Zhan Taiyi frowned and looked at the three people in front of him.
They all said they voted to leave, but there were clearly two traitors.
What will Simeng do?
After leaving the high seas, will they intercept and kill the business group and be one step ahead?
But the voting was obviously anonymous. How could Simeng know which two business groups had changed their attitudes?
"Since you are so stubborn, I would like to ask you to rest in this Yanqing Building during this week. I believe you will not refuse."
Zhan Tai spoke of house arrest in a fresh and refined way.
We cannot give them a chance to send anyone to communicate with Simeng to show their loyalty.
Guya can ensure this.
By then, even if they really went to sea with him from Haizhou Port, Simeng could only treat them all as really leaving.
As for himself, who is on the bright side, Zhan Taiyi is still confident that he can protect himself.
Touching him would be equivalent to touching Blood Harbor.
"Can!"
He Su Zhensheng.
To Zhan Taiyi's expectation, Maratanio and Urat agreed without hesitation.
The atmosphere fell into silence again.
Zhan Taiyi was thinking in his mind, imagining Haizhou Port in a week.
Four merchant ships left the port.
Four merchant ships entered the high seas.
At this time Simeng will start to take revenge.
Don't worry about yourself, then Simeng will let two of the remaining three boats go.
How do they choose their targets?
How do they know?
"What the hell is this Yiyi singing? Is this what people in Simeng like to hear?"
He Su on the side changed the topic and cursed.
The troupe on the stage was in the middle of singing, and they were singing passionately.
"Shut up."
Zhan Tai's face looked as if it was freezing cold.
He Su was stunned and stopped talking.
Several people were in silence, listening to the graceful lyrics and looking at the silent Zhan Taiyi, not knowing what to say.
Suddenly, a voice came from the corner. He was a little happy, but also a little unbelievable.
"Brother? Are you really here?"
In the corner, a handsome man walked out. His eyebrows were somewhat similar to Zhan Taiyi's.
But it was Zhan Yuhuai, the young leader of the Yanqinglou Theater Troupe.
