"Didi..."
After Chen Xing killed the Corpse King, he returned to the hammock. Just as he was about to take a sip of tea, his black watch suddenly rang.
When he opened it, he saw that it was an email from Dragon Scale Guard's contact in New Edo.
[Your Excellency, Prime Minister, we have found a business group that meets the requirements in all aspects. Can we arrange a meeting in the near future? ]
Chen Xing quickly clicked on the black watch screen a few times to reply to the message.
[See you at the same place tomorrow night]
Things here are almost busy, and it’s time to go back to Shin-Edo to handle the follow-up matters.
[receive! ]
Turning off the screen, Chen Xing asked the goblin to call the little ant queen up.
"Everything is almost ready, it's time for me to go back."
"Chi chi chi..."
The little queen ant crawled to Chen Xing's feet and rubbed her little head against his shoes, somewhat reluctantly.
"Hide yourself, I will come see you after a while."
"Chichi!" The little queen ant held up two insect scythes and screamed happily. Before it reaches the first stage of growth, it has not awakened telepathy and cannot convey information through brain waves.
The next night, Chen Xing returned to Shin-Edo in a low-key manner, wearing ordinary clothes and big sunglasses, and went to the izakaya near the airport as scheduled.
Although he showed his face in the king's battle a few days ago and attracted some attention, his psychic fluctuations were only at the guard level. As long as his appearance was hidden, he would basically not attract attention.
"welcome!"
After opening the door and going in, the proprietress ran over quickly, knelt on the bamboo mat and saluted.
There were two people in the box. When they saw Chen Xing coming in, they quickly stood up and bowed.
Among the two people, one was well-proportioned and was the contact person of the Dragon Scale Guard, while the other was short and fat, with a small parting of his hair, a chubby face, and a pair of round-rimmed glasses, looking like a small businessman.
Seeing the short fat man's face, Chen Xing was stunned for a moment, and the other party was also stunned for a moment.
"Luo Danan!"
"Brother Chen!"
There was surprise on their faces, but they quickly calmed down and sat down in the box facing each other.
"Sir, do you know each other?" the Longscale Guard contact person asked Chen Xing in a low voice.
Chen Xing nodded. This Luo Danan was the son of a powerful man whom he befriended under the nickname "Blue City Sex Demon" after the duel incident in Ice Blue City.
Luo Danan admired him very much, and introduced a group of powerful disciples who also admired him to befriend him, calling him "big brother" one after another.
The two had always been in contact, and later they went to Ice Blue City to drink together. It was not until he took refuge with Aaliya that they broke off the contact.
Chen Xing looked at Luo Danan, "Are you the businessman he mentioned?"
"Yes!" Luo Danan looked excited, "I never even dreamed that I could meet you here!" He gave a thumbs up and said sincerely, "Brother is truly a hero. We haven't seen each other for more than a year. He has become the number one person in our Ice Blue City, and I am really impressed with him!"
Although Luo Danan
He has been doing business outside and traveling all over the world, but he still pays close attention to the current affairs of Ice Blue City and knows everything about it.
Luo Danan and Chen Xing have always had a good relationship, and they send emails to check on their current situation every once in a while. But when Chen Xing came to power and became the most powerful official in Ice Blue City overnight, he felt that his status was low and he was embarrassed to contact him.
His original friendship with Chen Xing was not because of the other person's power and position. He, a powerful son of the royal capital, had no need to curry favor with a small noble from a remote area. He was just impressed by Chen Xing's eclectic charisma when he grabbed breasts in public, so he brought Da Fei, Mao Kai and other brothers to pay homage to him and recognize him as his eldest brother.
In a sense, Chen Xing is their spiritual idol.
These heirs, because they made some mistakes when they were young and ignorant, were not welcomed in the aristocratic circle and were not taken seriously in the family. But they think they have some talents, and they want to start a career to impress their families.
And Chen Xing's behavior dared to risk the disapproval of the world. Even if the whole world was scolding him, he still went his own way. This freedom and magnanimity were what they pursued and envied.
On the day Chen Xing came to power, Luo Danan took Da Fei, Mao Kai and other brothers to get drunk on the street and sang all night, like a group of lunatics.
When they sobered up the next day, they vowed to be more diligent and follow in their eldest brother's footsteps.
But in the end, no one among them has gone to Chen Xing to ask for an official position, but they have just worked harder to run the business.
Even Da Fei, the eldest son of Count Tao Yongning, the former deputy chief inspector of the Ice Blue City Police Department, never thought of using this relationship to intercede for his father and get his official reinstatement.
It seems that if interests are involved, this friendship will be stained with the dust of the world and become less pure.
Luo Danan never expected that he would meet his idol again under such circumstances. His mood was indescribable.
"When did you start doing business and you didn't tell me a word?" Chen Xing said pretending to be angry.
Luo Danan scratched the back of his head and smiled slightly awkwardly, "The Prime Minister has many things to do every day. I am embarrassed to talk about my small business."
It was probably related to the theme of tonight's cooperation, and he was worried that Luo Danan's excessive modesty would cause the Prime Minister to doubt his ability to do things. The contact person of Longlin Guard couldn't help but interjected, "Master Luo, your Prodigal Son Consortium's business is all over the world. In a short time, Achieving hundreds of millions in turnover in just one year is not a ‘small business’.”
Luo Danan faced Chen Xing, clasped his fists and said, "Any achievement is insignificant in front of the Prime Minister."
"Hahaha..." Chen Xing smiled heartily. Most people feel happy physically and mentally when they receive compliments, especially if they can feel the sincerity of the other person.
After reminiscing about old times, we started to get into the topic.
Chen Xing picked up the small wine glass, and Luo Danan quickly picked up the glass with both hands and went up to clink glasses. He was about to drink first as a token of respect, but saw Chen Xing pressing his hand to signal him to stop.
"Your Majesty, Prime Minister..."
Luo Danan leaned forward and stretched his neck, looking respectful and listening.
Chen Xing said slowly, "You always call me big brother, you respect me so much, and you treat me to a drink when you arrive at Ice Blue City. I can't admit it."
You little brother. "
"So there are some things I want to say up front..."
Chen Xing stared into the other person's eyes, "What we are going to talk about today is of great importance. Once you know it, you will never be able to get away from it."
"You are my little brother, I can't cheat you. If you find it difficult to bear the burden, tonight's drink is just for us brothers to catch up on old times. After drinking, we can go back to our respective houses and do whatever we have to do."
Chen Xing lowered his voice, his expression was cold, and his eyes were fierce, like a vicious wolf, "But if you are involved, if something goes wrong, it will not be your Luo Danan's personal problem, but your Luo family's problem. ”
Luo Danan suppressed his smile, his expression became solemn, and he fell into deep thought for a long time.
Chen Xing didn't urge him, he drank the wine, put down the cup, and picked up some sushi.
This is a major decision in life, and the other party needs time to think about it.
After pondering for a long time, Luo Danan raised his head, looked into Chen Xing's eyes, nodded heavily, cupped his fists and said, "The younger brother only follows the lead of the elder brother!"
Chen Xing nodded and smiled, the other party had already made a decision. Wealth and honor are sought in danger, fame and fortune come again in danger. If you don't bear its weight, it will be difficult to achieve great things. If you want to get ahead, you have to keep your head in your belt.
"Let's talk." Chen Xing stood up, threw the napkin he was wiping his mouth on the table, left the box and walked towards the door.
"Brother, go slowly!" Luo Danan stood up to see him off. Being able to conquer the world with his idol is the opportunity he dreams of. He believed that Da Fei, Maokai and others would wholeheartedly support his decision after they found out.
"Yeah." Chen Xing responded without looking back, opened the door and went out.
The remaining matters will be discussed in detail between the contact and Luo Danan, and he only needs to make a decision.
Based on what I learned from the Dragon Scale Guard contact before, Luo Danan is indeed the best person to secretly contact the merchants to deliver the "goods" to the Tianqin Principality.
The first thing is to know the basics. The family in Ice Blue City is equivalent to having hostages, and it is not easy to betray.
You know, if the matter is leaked, the reformers sent there and the Dragon Scale Guards and Imperial Guards dressed as mercenaries will be in disaster.
Secondly, Luo Danan's "Prodigal Son Consortium" has been doing well in New Edo for more than a year, doing business all over the world, and has sufficient connections.
The third is that Luo Danan has always been involved in the arms business of the Tianqin Principality. Although he was born in Ice Blue City, before the civil war, merchants did business all over the country without geographical distinction.
Even if there is a civil war now, no one is deliberately squeezing out the Red Country businessmen from the enemy-controlled areas. Because everyone is from the Red Country, with interconnected connections and competing interests, it is difficult to completely draw boundaries.
Therefore, Luo Danan arranged to transport goods into the Tianqin Principality. Even if the source was found to be the Prodigal Son Consortium, it would not arouse too much suspicion.
In this world, arms/dealers are like a fish in water. If you have milk, you will be a mother. Wherever there is profit, you will dig in. Camps and other things have long been forgotten.
After leaving the izakaya, the cold wind blew on my face, which was extremely refreshing. He stretched, and the matter was finally over, and it was time to go back to Ice Blue City.
The hotel bed is still not as comfortable as the palace...
