Amid the surprised and uncertain gazes of everyone, Jiang Sui walked into the White Horse Manor one step ahead of everyone else.
Gu Qinghuan and several gun-wielding robots followed closely behind.
Just when the delicate and beautiful Shen Rong was about to raise her hand and say something, Colonel Shen grabbed her daughter's hand tightly and squeezed it hard. The smile on her face became even bigger: "Please, please, Mr. Governor, please come in."
As he walked to the banquet hall, Colonel Shen quickly thought about it in his mind - what did the Governor's move just now mean?
The medical expenses are borne by the Governor's Mansion... Could it be that Jiang Sui, a cruel Governor who killed too many people, suddenly became merciful when he saw how pitiful the Shen family was?
No, it's impossible!
School Shen has more channels and knows more details about the day when Gray Eye Palace fell. He heard that Jiang Sui directly dragged an officer who was about to "do something" from the bed and shot him to death in the living room.
This is why Colonel Shen had to greet him with a smile when he saw armed guards entering the manor.
Colonel Shen had no doubt that if he dared to say more nonsense, the governor would dare to bring in the armored vehicle.
So...it's not kindness, what is it?
Principal Shen, who was used to doing business, subconsciously began to use exhaustive methods to guess Jiang Sui's intentions.
Either to release a little bit of goodwill to the Shen family and express their willingness to cooperate; or to block the excuses made by the Shen family and insist on seizing the property as much as possible.
Principal Shen thought about it and felt that the first possibility was more likely.
Not because he was so optimistic.
But given the character of the new governor, if he had any dissatisfaction, he would definitely machine-gun fire and shell the manor on the spot.
Jiang Sui ignored the little movements of the father and daughter, and generously looked at the beautiful scenery of White Horse Manor under the sunset.
"It's a nice garden. Isn't it too empty to live in?"
Discussing mansions with rulers has always been a very dangerous topic. Colonel Shen's face froze and he quickly explained: "The Shen family's property requires a lot of people to take care of it. It seems big to you, but in fact there are a lot of people and it's lively."
Jiang Sui looked left and right with interest, and continued to praise: "The manor is well maintained."
Colonel Shen felt his accelerated heartbeat and smiled slowly: "Mr. Governor, because I know some craftsmen with good skills... If your palace needs them, these people will be yours from now on."
"No, no, no, I'm very satisfied with the current Governor's Mansion." Jiang Sui was still chatting with an old friend, "I'm just curious. Mr. Shen has time to take care of the manor, why doesn't he have time to reinforce the mine?"
A very simple question, but murderous intent rushed towards me!
If the answer is not good...
"Mr. Governor, you are new here and you don't know many things." Colonel Shen shuddered and immediately looked distressed, "I told the miners not to operate in violation of regulations, but they didn't listen! This is how it happened. ACCIDENT."
"We haven't found any mine yet, and we have to be responsible for compensation... You're so shocked that you took action. Look at what's going on."
Jiang Sui gave Principal Shen a meaningful look and said nothing more.
There is no need for Principal Shen to lie on this matter. Jiang Sui also believes that the mines controlled by the Shen family must have some symbolic "safety rules."
However, Jiang Sui also knew that these so-called safety rules, instead of protecting the miners, would become a tool to exploit them!
High taxation tasks are on the heads of miners at all times. If you want to dig out enough ore, you must violate regulations and enter deep mines that may collapse at any time.
In the predicament of not even having food to eat, violating safety regulations is the only option for these miners.
Once an accident occurs, Principal Shen, who has long been colluded with the Gerbil Gang, can refuse compensation on the excuse that the miners violated the code.
This Colonel Shen looks civilized, but is actually a beast in clothes - essentially what he does is no different from the Gerbil Gang.
It was the same robbery, the same killing. The Gerbil Gang was wiped out with force, but Colonel Shen was able to live in a mansion in a grand manner. He could even talk to the new governor and even blame the deceased for his fault.
If the gerbil gang is like leeches lying on the skin sucking blood, then the capital represented by the Shen family is the cancer hidden under the skin!
Compared to the perpetrators with guns, Colonel Shen knows how to use the power of interests and try his best to bring the rulers into the same camp.
The moment the Governor himself becomes a vested interest, all future actions against the Shen family can only be superficial work.
"Very cunning, but his calculations are very good. Unfortunately, his vision is too low."
…
While chatting, a few people finally walked through the manor's path, pushed open the door engraved with many gorgeous patterns and decorations, and came to the banquet room.
After opening the door, you are greeted by a long red carpet, and the crystal chandelier hanging from the ceiling is even more spectacular.
Colonel Shen invited Jiang Sui to sit on the main seat and said in an apologetic tone: "Mr. Governor, please sit here for a while and taste the tea grown in our own tea garden."
"Some ingredients need to be eaten within a few minutes after being cooked to taste good. I'll go and hurry up the kitchen, please forgive me."
After finishing speaking, Principal Shen quickly left the banquet hall with the butler.
Soon, only Jiang Sui, Gu Qinghuan and Shen Rong were left in the huge banquet hall.
Jiang Sui reached out and played with the crystal wine glass on the table, then raised his eyes to look at Shen Rong, who was a little restless: "Did you have something to say to me just now?"
Shen Rong was startled: "General...Mr. Governor, no, no!"
"As long as there is no malice, speaking will not be a crime for a person." Jiang Sui put down the wine glass, "If you want to say anything, you can definitely say it."
The girl didn't have as many twists and turns as her father, and her emotions were basically written on her face. She was quite embarrassed at this time: "But Mr. Governor, father didn't let me say..."
Is this really an innocent little white flower?
Complete image of a well-educated noble daughter.
If what he said when he first came in was "reasonable", then by leaving Shen Rong alone, Principal Shen probably wanted to take advantage of her character to "move her affection" towards Jiang Sui.
"Your father just didn't let you say it in front of him." Jiang Sui shook the cup and reminded him thoughtfully, "His intention of leaving you here and leaving by yourself is already obvious, isn't it?"
Shen Rong was stunned, then stood up quickly, lifted up her skirt and made a standard salute: "Mr. Governor, I have no right to interfere with your decision, but I still hope you can forgive me for my offense."
"I...I want to know, are you here today to punish my father?"
Jiang Sui's expression did not change at all: "You are not as cunning as your father, but you can see more things clearly than him."
When School Shen was still using profit as a basis for thinking that he could preserve the industry, Shen Rong, who didn't understand this, sensed Jiang Sui's true attitude.
Shen Rong's tears immediately flowed out: "Mr. Governor, I beg you, please spare my father. I can swear to you that he is a good person. Please believe me..."
