Chapter Ninety-Eight: Successively Pitted

Sun Lihai didn't regain his usual smile until this time, and he said with a smile: "Of course." Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 info Astor City is not what it used to be, and the family has already negotiated with these nine major business alliances before I set off, considering that you are weak. In the future, your products will be underwritten by our top ten business alliances, and the model will be in accordance with the agent model you formulated. At the same time, we will also officially announce here that the Bai family and the Zhang family are subsidiary families of the Sun family, and Astor City is the sphere of influence of the Sun family and is protected by the Sun family. ā€

The second master of the Sun family and his entourage were led to the western suburbs by Sun Gang when they entered Astor City, and they had no idea what had happened in Astor City in the past few days. Therefore, the other nine people sat here at ease, watching the second master of the Sun family and Sun Xiang talking there.

According to Sun Ying, these people belong to another line in their respective forces, that is, they are responsible for making money for the power group. They didn't know anything about the Astor City trials that the royal family had made, let alone the story behind the Astor City trials.

If it weren't for the fact that the Sun family didn't have any hope for the Astor City trial at the beginning, so they handed over the matter of the Astor City trial to Sun Lihai to do, Sun Lihai would not have known about the Astor City trial.

Therefore, they didn't take Sun Xiang in their eyes and let Sun Lihai and Sun Xiang negotiate. For them, the only purpose is to come here to sign an agency contract with Bai Zhang's family, and the content of the contract has been agreed on in the capital as early as possible. As for Sun Xiang's identity, they don't care. In their eyes, everything that is unscrupulous is a child's trick.

After listening to the words of the second master of the Sun family, Sun Xiang secretly scolded in his heart, it's over, he was pitted by the old fox of the Sun family in the capital! It turned out that the old fox had long anticipated the difficulties he might face here, and had already helped him in the capital to get everything done, and asked the second master to come just to fulfill the formalities.

No wonder he so happily agreed to the deal for reinforcements, it turned out that arrangements had been made a long time ago. But he had to provide his family with three small pills and three detoxification pills every month.

In this way, Sun Xiang sighed again, he still didn't know about the situation here, otherwise, with thousands of years of experience, how could he be pitted by that old fox.

In fact, Sun Xiang didn't know that the second master of the Sun family next to him was also bullying Sun Xiang for not understanding the situation and was cheating him.

One of the nine business alliances he brought with him was that of the Black family. Sun Lihai knew the contradiction between Sun Xiang and the Black family, so when introducing the nine business alliances just now, he only mentioned the names of the business alliances, and did not mention the background of these business alliances at all.

Therefore, Sun Xiang didn't know that one of the nine business alliances was from the Black family. It wasn't until three years later that Sun Xiang made a joke because he didn't understand the background of these business alliances, and he knew that he had been cheated by the second master of the Sun family. Of course, that's an afterthought.

Zhang Jincai and Sun Ying next to them also guessed that Sun Xiang was cheated by the head of the Sun family. Seeing Sun Xiang's ugly face, they all showed sympathetic eyes.

Although the approach of the old fox of the Sun family coincides with Sun Xiang's thoughts, it is also the only way to solve the crisis of Astor City at this stage. But this feeling of being led away made Sun Xiang very unhappy. Sun Xiang, who was helpless, had no choice but to pull Zhang Jincai to sit down, discussed in detail with those people on the details of the sales agent, and finally signed an agency contract with them.

At this time, Sun Xiang once again discovered that the old fox of the Sun family was not simple. The Sun family actually monopolized the right to sell the Bai family's wine in the capital, and the other nine merchant alliances could only sell the Bai family's wine in other parts of the empire.

It must be because of Astor City, or because of itself. After all, the wine is produced in Astor City, and Astor City is about to be declared the Sun family's sphere of influence, and the Sun family can sell it to whoever they want. Only the old man of the Sun family knew that this wine was actually invented by him.

Although he was pitted by the old fox of the Sun family, the interests of Astor City were not harmed, which made Sun Xiang acceptable.

Everything is done, and it's almost time to finish eating. At this time, someone from outside came to report that someone from the Imperial Military Department had come to see the city guard of Astor City.

According to Emperor Deco's secret edict, before the new edict came down, Sun Xiang was still the supreme head of Astor City. Whether it is Chu Sen or Bai Zhaoxuan, they are all appointed by Sun Xiang, and they can only take effect in Astor City, and they are not yet recognized by the empire.

Therefore, people from the military department can only be received by Sun Xiang.

Sun Xiang didn't bother to go out, and directly ordered people to bring people from the military department to the meeting room.

Knowing that the city guard of Astor City did not come out to greet him, the man from the military headquarters walked into the parlor with an angry face. But when he saw the people sitting there, his sweat fell. hurriedly saluted one by one, and secretly muttered in his heart, where is this city guarded and where is sacred, there are so many great gods sitting here.

In the end, it was Sun Xiang's turn, and when he saw the fifteen or sixteen-year-old boy in front of him, that person was even more blindsided. Although he had not been in the military department for long, he had never heard of a child serving as the city's guard.

After being kindly reminded by some people, he learned that this young man turned out to be the grandson of the Sun family, a hereditary baron!

His sweat came down again, and he suddenly felt that there was something strange about this mission.

Sun Xiang asked lazily, "What's the matter?" Go ahead. ā€

If another castle guard dared to talk to him like that, that person would have jumped up and lashed out. However, in the face of the young master of the Sun family, he didn't dare.

The man said respectfully: "Lord Sun, I am on the orders of the military department to take away those prisoners who have violated discipline. This is a warrant from the military department. With that, he handed the warrant with the seal of the military department to Sun Xiang.

After Sun Xiang took the warrant, he saw that the content inside was indeed the same as what the man said. He smiled, very happily.

"We have more than 500 prisoners in prison, and it takes a lot of time to check them one by one. It's not getting early, so why don't you rest in the western suburbs for the night today, and I'll take you to pick up those prisoners tomorrow." ā€

Seeing Sun Xiang say this, that person didn't dare to object at all. Because according to the procedures of the Empire, he needed to be present to take away those prisoners. And the lord city guard in front of him didn't want to leave the western suburbs at all, he had no choice at all.

Hearing that the tiny city of Astor had imprisoned more than 500 prisoners, everyone was stunned.

Sun Lihai hurriedly asked, "Xiangzi, what's the matter?" ā€

Sun Xiang didn't bother to answer, and motioned for Sun Gang to come out. So, Sun Gang stepped forward and explained the situation in Astor City in detail in the past few days.

After listening to Sun Gang's introduction, everyone in the room had mixed reactions.

The man from the military headquarters was sweating again, and he guessed that this strange task might be a game between the bigwigs in the capital. Thinking of this, he sweated even more.

And the nine representatives of the business alliance showed a mocking expression, they were laughing at those business alliances who came in advance for not being able to do their best, and they were also laughing at the strength of Astor City was too weak and could only rely on the Sun family.

Sun Lihai was angry, rarely angry.

He yelled at the man from the military headquarters, "Who issued this warrant?" Does His Majesty the Emperor know? ā€

The man was just an errand runner, and he knew about these things, and he couldn't answer them at all.

Sun Xiang said with a strong smile: "Second uncle, forget it, make money with harmony." Forget it. ā€

Seeing that Sun Xiang had no intention of pursuing the matter, the second master of the Sun family said hatefully: "Okay." After I go back, I will definitely report this matter to the head of the family, and ask the head of the family to go to His Majesty the Emperor to ask for an explanation. ā€

Listening to Sun Gang's introduction that among these people, there were people from the Yu family and the Zhao family, and Sun Lihai reacted to why Sun Xiang asked if there was a business alliance between the Yu family and the Zhao family among the top ten business alliances. And because the two families were involved, the Sun family was not easy to fight directly, so they could only go to the emperor to ask for an explanation.

Sun Lihai knew everything about the trials in Astor City and the story behind them, and he believed that His Majesty the Emperor would definitely give Sun Xiang an explanation.

After Sun Xiang comforted the second master a few more words, he instructed Zhang Jincai to arrange food and lodging for these people tonight, and then left with Sun Ying and Sun Gang.

Back in his small courtyard, Sun Xiang took the two of them to his study, closed the door and said, "Sun Gang, you go back immediately and reconfirm the location of those foreign merchants." Be careful not to be spotted by them. Also, in the middle of the night, I will go to the city of Astor, and you will be waiting for me at the gates. ā€

Sun Gang was stunned for a moment, and then somewhat understood. He looked at Sun Xiang in surprise and asked, "Young Master, you, what are you going to do?" ā€

Sun Xiang said hatefully: "They really think I'm a bully? Hum! ā€

Sun Ying also reacted, and hurriedly dissuaded: "Young master, don't." ā€

Sun Xiang said unhappily: "Not taking revenge on this will affect my Dao heart. Do you want my cultivation to stagnate forever? ā€

Sun Xiang's words frightened Sun Gang and Sun Ying. They are martial artists cultivated by the family, and they are loyal to the family, how dare they destroy the path of the family's sister-in-law's cultivation of the gods.

After sending Sun Gang away, Sun Xiang went to the restaurant. The second master is here, and he can't help but accompany him. Sun Ying stayed behind to take care of Xiaoling.

Due to the emergence of the variable of Baleno City, it not only helped Sun Xiang solve the financial problem, but also won Sun Xiang enough time. As a result, the taste of wine is stronger and more authentic.
