"Ming Gong, can you give me some time to think about it? After all, not all of the company belongs to me, and some of the shares belong to others. I need to exchange opinions with them for a while before I can give you an accurate answer..." Waiting for change, facing the strong power of Hu Lian and others, Kang Lin could only adopt this method to buy himself time, because he knew very well that in his current situation, whether it was a strict refusal or a vague answer, as long as he could not answer Well, it could lead to death at any time! In the final analysis, I am just an ordinary person with a golden finger, not Guan Yu and Guan Yunchang, who took the head of a general out of a million soldiers like a man in a bag. There is no guarantee that he can break out unscathed after a conflict with him, even if the elegant and handsome man in front of him is Mr. Kang Lin, who is more like a scholar than an officer, has a lot of property. Kang Lin, who has been promoted to the ruling class, still dare not risk his own life. Therefore, after thinking again and again, he used the dragging technique. !

"It's a matter of great importance, and it's reasonable for you to think about it carefully. However, I can wait, but I'm afraid that the grumpy adults in the capital can't wait. Let's do it this way. In three days, I will give you three days at most to coordinate everything. Fang! At that time, no matter what, you have to give me a clear answer. Otherwise, if something unpleasant happens next, don’t blame me for not giving you a chance..."

Waving to the soldiers and servants outside the door who were watching nervously what was going on in the house, Hu Lian raised his chopsticks and took a bite of the clear water mutton carefully cooked by his chef. He was very sure that the fat man opposite had made a wise decision. Because he could see complex emotions such as hesitation, fear, madness, and violence in the latter's eyes. And if a person does not have the determination to resist, then he is not far from complete surrender. What he needs All I have to do is wait, wait quietly! He has done in-depth research and understanding of this, and it has also been confirmed by many people. After all, he has been in officialdom for decades, and his eyes are as piercing as Sun Xingzhe's, but they are not far behind!

And if you think about it carefully, the conditions he offered are not too harsh. In the final analysis, they still leave enough room for profit for this group of people. You know, Hu Qianshi wants 80% of the shares from others on the ground in the East China Sea. This time, only 60% of Kang Lin was selected. It was because of the bravery of his troops. He assisted the soldiers in defeating the invading Japanese pirates in Zhujiawan. He had considerable combat power and had common command with his mortal enemy. Weng Yuli has an unknown relationship. He is afraid that he will be too harsh and push people to the latter's side, so he only gives the internal friendship price. Otherwise, it will be only 60% of the profit of a small and broken trading company, and he wants to exchange for a guard. There are hundreds of households in the office, and he is protected by Mr. Hu. This is like a dream - I want to eat shit!

"Okay, in three days, I will give you an accurate answer by then!" Seeing that he had finally gained the crucial buffer time, Kang Lin immediately hurriedly filled Hu Lian's wine glass with Huadiao Then he picked up his own wine glass and filled it up. He clinked the glass with the latter and made a verbal agreement.

"Sir, what do you think of this businessman surnamed Kang? Will he give us 60% of the dividend?" After three rounds of wine and five delicious dishes, it was finally time to leave. Kang Lin asked Hu Lian to leave very knowingly. Xi Xi's request, and the latter's goal was achieved, he did not deliberately retain him, but sent the third steward Hu Wudai to send him out of the house himself, while he himself was leaning on a short couch made of old elm wood to rest and sober up. After a while, there was a jingle of rings and a strong and sweet scent of flowers. In the blink of an eye, a slim woman in her twenties opened the bead curtain and walked into the room with light steps. , and behind her were two twenty-year-old girls with double buns, one holding a copper basin towel, and the other holding a black lacquer plate with boiled hangover soup on it!

The person who came was none other than Hu Lian's step-sister, Jiang Yundi's sister from the Hu family, whose maiden name was Yun E. She was not an ordinary woman. In addition to her beautiful appearance, she was considerate and surprisingly intelligent. She was well-read in her teens, and after marrying Hu Lian, she became his housekeeper, the female Zhuge. The latter usually consulted with Hu Lian when he was in doubt, and she always had her own unique insights. This time Hu Lian held a banquet and competed with his old enemy Weng Yuli for Kang Lin, a rising military star. It was her handiwork. As for leaving Kang Lin in the cold and trying to seize his property, it was her husband Hu Lian's. On a temporary basis, Kang Lin was forced to frame the ambassador Shen Sanda, the artillery army was like Wang Ruhai, and the infantry army tried to pass the Japanese flag with Liu Chongqi. It was all Hu Wu who killed him. This guy wanted to show his ability in front of his master. , regardless of his mistress's prior instructions, he used low-level means such as writing a letter of allegiance to force Kang Lin into surrender, destroying Jiang Yun'e's overall arrangement! Therefore, he soon got the punishment he deserved. In a rage, Hu Lian ignored Hu Wu who had served him for many years, and slapped the latter's face with all his strength, completely forgetting that He is still wearing a Taoist robe and a Dongpo scarf on his head. The role he wants to play is that of a gentle scholar and a gentle man!

In the end, it was the mistress whom Hu Wu looked down upon the most who saved his life at a critical moment. Otherwise, with Hu Lian's fiery temper, he would have been beaten to death today! Afterwards, Hu Lian, who had once again pretended to be an elegant scholar, met Kang Lin in the West Flower Hall and treated him to a Qianshi Mansion working meal worth fifteen taels of silver. The last part was the robbery. To be honest, Jiang Yun E didn't expect that her husband, who had always seemed elegant and wise, would make such a stupid mistake, but as a woman, she couldn't show her face easily in front of others, so she could only wait until Hu Wu sent Kang Lin away before she made a hasty move. When she came out to discuss with her husband, she had already seen some bad signs in Kang Lin's words and deeds. She wanted to remind her husband to be careful about this fat man who seemed to be submissive! Because in her opinion, the latter is not a person who gives in easily. What he is doing now is just to stabilize himself and then wait for an opportunity to escape or counterattack...

"He is a smart and capable man, smooth and thoughtful in dealing with things, and he has a group of loyal subordinates. He is a good person. But if he wants to hang out in the East China Sea, he is really a big dragon, and he has to be taken care of. Madam, you don't want to I'm too worried! Well, by the way, Madam, has she ever seen the oil lamp that guy sent me? It's extremely bright and different from ordinary oil lamps. If all that guy's shops sell these kinds of things in the future, , then we are really rich, tsk tsk, a copper lamp is sold to him for 12 or 80 taels, and a hundred lamps are 1,000 800 taels. This is much faster and safer than supporting the gang of evil sharks to commit robberies. "It's..." After drinking the sobering soup in the hand of the pretty maid next to him, Hu Lian put down the blue and white porcelain bowl nonchalantly. He was not as cautious as his mother-in-law. In his opinion, he held great power in his hands, and the entire capital except Gu Wentong, a commander who smells like copper, has the final say all by himself. He talks about a new small pirate force like a notorious pirate gang like Fierce Shark. He also supports it as long as he says it is supported. , just wipe it out if you say it will be wiped out, there is no need to worry at all!

"Master, I see that this man is very unruly and very tolerant. If he can't be used by us, why not cut him off as soon as possible!" Looking at his master's indifferent expression, Jiang Yuncai said. There was a hint of sternness on her face. Although her brother Jiang Yundi was a playboy and a bastard, he was the only bloodline of her mother's family. She married an old man Hu Lian with the reputation of being a step-mother. Wasn't she just trying to find a strong man for her family? Is there a strong backer? Now the eldest brother has the qualification to compete for the Hundred Households of Zhengyin. On the way, the only competitor Liu Chongqi is also ready to give up due to financial constraints, but he doesn't want a killer named Kang to pop up halfway. Not only does Liu Chongqi Injecting sufficient campaign funds, he also brought him several Japanese pirate heads! What is that? Perhaps in the eyes of other women, it is just some smelly, dry and horrible thing, but in her eyes, it is the golden key to the pinnacle of career! With these heads, her brother Jiang Yundi could surpass his rival Liu Chongqi and become the sixth-grade Zhengyin Baihu of the guard station, but the killer surnamed Kang just gave this great credit to the latter, and this... It means that his younger brother will miss out on the official position of Baihu... Therefore, whenever he has the opportunity to support his younger brother, Mo Jiang Yun'e will arrange that annoying fat man surnamed Kang in front of his father. Now that he saw the latter leaving, he even encouraged him Her husband completely strangled it in the cradle!

"Yun Niang, this person is still useful to me, so don't touch him for the time being. You also know that these days, Weng Laopifu and his gang have been staring at me with wide eyes. If they are caught at this time, The handle, to be honest, is a trouble!" He reached out and took Jiang Yun'e into his arms. Hu Lian's eyes were full of tenderness and sweetness. He doted on this beautiful girl who was nearly twenty years younger than him. Therefore, Aiwujiwu also takes great care of her incompetent playboy brother. It can be said that Jiang Yundi, a commoner, was able to be promoted from a small banner to a general banner, and even to test a hundred households in one year, because he was working behind the scenes, otherwise Even if the former overlord comes to the world and the second master is resurrected, he will not be able to obtain enough bandit heads in one year to upgrade his official position. What's more, reaching the trial hundred household level, he has more than just heads. You can get promoted. I'm afraid even Jiang Yun'e doesn't know how much exchange of interests and compromises there are. However, seeing the worried look on his little wife's face at this moment, Hu Lian still comforted the latter and said,

"As for the eldest brother, I will continue to follow up. Don't worry, he won't be able to become a member of the Zhengyin Hundred Houses this time. As long as I am still in the position of Donghai Wei Qianshi, it will be one or two years at the earliest and three or four at the latest. In the next year, I will make him the deputy of a hundred households or even a thousand households!"
