Ge Sheng looked at the girl who was staring at him with interest with his head full of black lines.
She was still dressed in the same outfit as when she went to eat at her own restaurant before. Under her shiny white wide gown, she wore a rather tight woolen jacket and fine linen trousers. Her whole person looked fresh and capable, paired with the face that was far above average. The exquisite face above can definitely be regarded as a 100% beauty. Although it is not as harmful to the country and the people as the Third Highness, it is still half a step behind Aoxuehua's level, but this is because of comparison after all. The object is too harsh.
For a more fair and sad comparison, our dear classmate Ye Xiaojiu is easily surpassed by this Christie in terms of overall quality.
But now Ge Sheng has no intention to appreciate the beauty of this beauty. As soon as she left, he went to check the details of the other party. This is nothing. I can only say that Ge Sheng is cautious and steady.
But it's another thing to be cornered at the door by the subject of your investigation as soon as you emerge from the tipster.
"Don't be afraid, don't be afraid." Christie jumped down from the white horse sculpture with a hand, looked at Ge Sheng who was about to cry, and comforted him with a smile: "I didn't say anything to you, there is nothing to be afraid of. .”
Ge Sheng confirmed her attitude and finally felt a little relieved, so he asked: "Why are you here."
"Why am I here?" Christie repeated Ge Sheng's question, and then smiled helplessly: "How much did Yi Lanshan tell you? It doesn't seem like much."
"This is his West City, his film market, but the owner of West City itself is me." Christie said the shocking things easily, without any hesitation.
"So this is not only his home court, but it's also mine."
"In that case." Christie came to Ge Sheng and looked at the young man's childish face: "If I want to know your whereabouts, it will obviously be easy."
Ge Sheng was silent.
Yes, if everything was as Christie said, then he would be under her surveillance from the very beginning, and everything would be a matter of course.
Just, why?
"Because I like you." Christie answered Ge Sheng with a smile.
Ge Sheng took a step back and bit his lip gently.
Christie directly answered the question he didn't ask.
Why is this.
It is because the other party is good at negotiation and communication, and good at observing words and emotions, so you can predict the enemy's opportunities.
In other words, the other party has some kind of mind-reading ability?
No matter which possibility it is, it is not a possibility that makes people happy.
"By analogy, it can probably be classified as the ability to read minds." Christie reached out and touched the upper edge of her lips, where there were fine soft fuzz: "But usually I am very taboo about being exposed, so Yi Lanshan also I didn’t explain it to you, probably thinking that if I knew that he had told you about my talent in this area, I would be angry at him.”
"That mountain master is so shrewd that it's disgusting." Christie concluded calmly.
Ge Sheng finally gave up and sighed deeply.
This is one of the exits of the movie market. Places like this are generally sparsely populated and relatively hidden. Moreover, Ye Ye City was originally a gathering place for hibernating patients, so it is normal for no one to come and go.
But in such a public place, which is even one of the exits of the film market, it is very abnormal for Christie to casually and easily utter several pieces of information with huge information and equally huge value in succession.
Unless she is convinced that this place has become a private space exclusively for her at this moment.
"The mountain master told me that you came here because of me. Can you tell me why?"
Yeah, and not for such an embarrassing reason like "because I like you."
"Of course there are many reasons." Christie spoke calmly and slowly explained: "I must admit that the reason why I followed the movement was because I liked you after seeing it before, but the reason why I came here is , it is indeed because of you, but it has nothing to do with my feelings for you. In fact, at first, I didn’t even know you existed.”
"To put it simply, it's because of Xia."
Ge Sheng bit his lip.
What a familiar yet unfamiliar name.
"Christie is my name, Tina is a term of endearment, and some people like to call me Christina, but my full name is Christie Croft, and I am now the head of the Croft family."
"You must have never heard of my name, including my surname. Croft is an ancient and young family. At first, he was a loyal servant who served Xia, managing the business that originally belonged to the Commercial Federation for that saint. A large area of land, ever since Xia completely abandoned his identity and past and finally became a saint, the Croft family has fallen into a long period of confusion. Although they are still faithfully executing the instructions left by the original saint, they have firmly controlled We are leading today's commercial federation, but we still can't find the next direction."
"So out of various considerations, in the following hundreds of years, the Croft family has been following Xia's footsteps, hoping to get guidance, help, or relief."
"So they found Xia, and assisted Xia, together with the Saint of the Lost Moon and the Princess of the Sea, to build Ye Ye College and rebuild Ye Ye City. So although Ye Ye College can now take care of itself financially, in the beginning In the 100 years since its establishment, the Croft family has been the largest financial backer behind Ye Ye College."
Ge Sheng continued to remain silent.
Yes, Ge Sheng had never heard of what Christie said.
In the history he knew, when Ye Ye Academy was at its peak, the three saints in the world gathered here to educate all people. The miraculous Ye Ye Academy was built directly by the three saints.
However, when reading this period of history, Ge Sheng had some doubts: The three sages are naturally cultivated in Xuanxuan, and their knowledge is as profound as the sea. They can build large and exquisite buildings such as Ye Pagoda, but the stone, metal and wood used for construction are so Where did the supplies come from?
So at the beginning, I could only assume that with the Three Saints' cultivation, they must be extremely rich, and everyone could fill up the bottomless hole in the academy by spending their personal belongings.
Now Christie has given another explanation. It seems a bit unbelievable at first, but it makes perfect sense when you think about it carefully.
After Ge Sheng had interacted with the three saints to varying degrees, he already had a preliminary understanding of the net worth of the three saints.
From a conventional point of view, the richest person is the Saint Yue Yi. He was born in the top nobles of Ye Ye. He has the highest starting point and once dominated the world. The entire Ye Ye College is his private property. But when he has a better understanding It was only later that we discovered that Saint Yue Yi was actually the poorest one.
Because he himself has a very pure scholar character. Whether it is cultivation, research or even scholarship, he is meticulous and pure. No matter whether this saint left behind unknown flesh and blood in the end,
, but judging from public records, although Saint Yue Yi was married, he did not give birth to children. All his savings were donated to Ye Ye College for free. Ye Ye College is the Saint's largest private property, but Ultimately, this private property is also the most precious public property in the world.
Because as we all know, the final ownership of Ye Ye College was completely handed over to Lin Xi.
As for Xiao, Xiao was born into a prominent family in Wanghai Prefecture. He was accompanied by visions when he was born, and his talent for growth is so high that no one can match it. Although Xiao has lived in Ye Ye College for the longest time after becoming a saint, But she herself had been the state shepherd of Wanghaizhou for a long time, named state shepherd. However, for Wanghaizhou, which had been independent for a long time and had not been included in the Aussie Empire at that time, she was just a king who did not call herself a king.
Even today, Wanghai Prefecture has been included in the Aussie Empire, and Xiao's family still firmly controls the military and political power of Wanghai Prefecture, only recognizing the Aussie Empire in name.
So in fact, the resources Xiao has at his disposal are particularly terrifying.
But Nai Xiao herself is another form of extreme. As the one with the highest talent and the strongest combat power among the Three Saints, she always pursues a higher realm and farther scenery.
For her level of existence, some resources are needed that cannot be satisfied by just Wanghaizhou. In other words, even if all those resources are handed over to Wanghaizhou, they will still be the same because they have no means or realm to use them. A huge pile of hazardous waste.
Just like a ton of highly purified uranium stone, it is a priceless treasure to some countries, but to other countries, it is a poison that will make you miserable if you get close to it.
What Xiao needs, no one in this world except the saint can satisfy her, but similarly, what she has is worthless to anyone except the saint.
So Xiao is an alternative and embarrassing combination of rich and poor.
As for Xia, he is the most mysterious one.
For the first two saints, everything was traceable from their birth to their death, but for Xia, it was like an existence appeared out of thin air.
Appearance is the presence of a saint.
Of course this is impossible, so there is another possibility, which is the possibility mentioned by Christie.
A Xia is a saint who has given up his identity and past.
He was once a part of history, but for some unknown reason, he separated himself from history. As soon as the separated existence appeared, he became a saint. At the same time, he also separated himself from everything before. .
Just like what Christie said about the Croft family, they once served Xia and even secretly controlled the entire commercial federation. Such skill and power were not only terrifying, but also thrilling.
But Xia finally gave up on all this and chose to completely cut off from the past.
perhaps.
Ge Sheng slowly told himself in his heart.
Because of this, those who know his past will choose the word "Xia" as his title.
