Chapter Ninety-Five, Birthday Banquet
The news of the crushing defeat of the Holy Light Empire's army under the city of Algar quickly spread throughout the Tian Yuan Continent. {szcn}
As a price for quick success, the Holy Light Empire had no choice but to give up the magic crystal mine on the Tianyue Wasteland, and command the remnants of the army to retreat into the country, completely admitting the defeat of this war.
Because if it continues to fight, the Buffy Empire, which has paid a huge price to achieve victory at this stage, will definitely not give up. And the Azure Empire in the north of the Holy Light Empire is obviously also the master who sees the cracks, and when he hears the crushing defeat of the Holy Light Empire, he will inevitably take the opportunity to declare war on it. If the remaining combat power of the Holy Light Empire is also held back in the south, then the defense in the north must be empty. The final result is very likely to be both the inability to grab the magic crystal mine and the fire in the backyard. That's a chicken-and-egg fight.
The Holy Light Empire Army, that is naturally very happy for the Buffy Empire. In order to celebrate this victory, Harrimanton named Luke Lewis, the third prince of the empire who had performed miraculous feats in this battle, as the new head of the White "Color" Knights (naturally for the sake of Zheng Xiyuan's face), and also announced that the "Chu Tianxie" who played a turning role in this battle was also officially awarded the title of "Imperial God of War". Of course, because a certain god of war does not covet fame and fortune and does not say goodbye, he has become a legend.
At this moment, in Ruoleni Province, a middle-aged man was squinting at the dozen or so young boys and girls in the dim attic, and his expression was a little grim. This person is Kitano Mo's uncle who doesn't make people feel at ease - Kitano Cangya.
Beside him, He Zhihao pointed at those young boys and girls with a smile on his face and said, "Thirteen people, one is not less." The parents and elders of these people are all elders of the Kitano family, are you not afraid of offending them by doing this?"
Kitano Cangya seemed to get rid of the hesitation in his heart, and said with a smile on his face: "At this time, do you care so much? Anyway, their parents are also determined to stand on the side of Kitano Wind Cliff against me." This time these little ones are in my hands, and they still have to be obedient? When they support me to sit as the head of the family, I will see how slowly I deal with them. β
Smiling and smiling, his face slowly turned gloomy. In the end, he was bored and walked away. Obviously, in the previous rounds of confrontations, he suffered a lot of losses at the hands of Kitano Wind Cliff.
He didn't know that on the second floor of the dim attic at this moment, a young man with a playful smile was looking at him. This teenager is none other than our protagonist Zheng Xiyuan.
"Hmph, the second uncle is too much this time!" beside Zheng Xiyuan, Kitano Mo said angrily. If Kitano Cangya knew that he was plotting, all of them fell into the ears of his nephew, I was afraid that he would die of grief and indignation, or he would be in a hurry to kill people.
Zheng Xiyuan smiled and was about to speak, He Zhihao came up and asked:
"Master, what should we do next?"
Zheng Xiyuan pointed to the young ladies who were tied up, and said: "Go and inform the parents of those people, and say that after the matter is completed, your love will definitely be returned." As for the opponent's children, have you caught them?"
He Zhihao nodded, indicating that he had done it.
At first, when he heard Beiye Cangya's plan to kidnap the other party's children as a threat, Zheng Xiyuan patted He Zhihao on the shoulder and said: Beiye Cangya, this old boy is a talent, this is what the underworld should do, you let the brothers of the Dragon Gang study hard in the future. Arrest all the children of the North Field Wind Cliff to me. Oh yes, you have to catch the children on both sides together, otherwise you will be startled if you say it's not good.
Of course, He Zhihao did so, so he immediately ordered the hidden killing team to do it, and the children on both sides were arrested together. At the call of him, the leader of the killers. The killers of the hidden killing group incarnated as the ultimate abductors one by one, abducting the high-ranking cadres of the elders of the Kitano family everywhere. Doing everything he could, he got it done in a few days.
Motioning for He Zhihao to go down, Zheng Xiyuan said to Beiye Mo: "I have already used the influence of the Dragon Gang to help you deal with the powerful figures in Huayue City, and I will also help you block all the tricks of Beiye Cangya, and then I am really not suitable to directly participate in your family's affairs, I think your father also means this, right?"
Every big family is very sensitive to family matters, Zheng Xiyuan can send someone to protect Murong Shenxia in the name of a friend, or he can secretly push Beiye Fengya behind the scenes. But if it appears on the table. His sensitive identity will turn things to the "sexual" nature of the Zheng family's "meddling" in the family affairs of the Kitano family, which is also intolerable for Kitano Fengya.
Kitano Mo naturally understood this truth, nodded and said: "This is natural, anyway, the initiative is already in my father's hands." Otherwise, the uncle would not have done this kind of dog jumping over the wall. But five days later is my sister's birthday, and my father wants to hold a drinking party for her. You're not going to be absent, are you?"
Zheng Xiyuan smiled, he naturally would not be absent.
Just the next day, Kitano Wind Cliff attacked Kitano Sky Cliff at the family meeting. And listed the accounting problems that have occurred in the industry in charge of Kitano Cangya in recent years. Kitano Cangya is a person who is greedy for enjoyment, and he wants to win over the patriarch of the Kitano family to fight against Kitano Wind Cliff. Spending money is naturally like flowing water, far from what his monthly money can satisfy. The extra money is naturally indispensable to move the public account of the Kitano family. Originally, there was no shortage of things like moving some money from the family, and if everyone didn't check, they would naturally know it silently. However, it is easy to find out the problem when you look it up.
Kitano Cangya was about to argue about this matter, but was refuted by a group of patriarchs. He didn't want to kidnap the plan, but it didn't work. On the contrary, there are many family elders who were close to them in the past. was caught off guard on the spot.
All the patriarchs agreed that it was necessary to investigate him, and he was naturally at a loss for words, and even the control of the property under his rule was completely deprived until the so-called investigation. Thinking about it, it's a sin that wants to be added, so there's no excuse for it. When the time comes, Kitano Wind Cliff will give him a hat casually. He is afraid that it will be difficult for him to make a comeback for the rest of his life.
At this point, the matter of the Kitano family came to an end.
In the Zheng family's mansion, Zheng Xiyuan stood in front of the mirror, and Xue Zhen was arranging the collar of his tuxedo for him, looking attentive and devoted. Because he was so close, Zheng Xiyuan could vaguely smell the fragrance between her hairline. It was a very pleasant taste, and I couldn't help but pinch a strand of her hair and play with it.
Xue Zhen naturally noticed his movements, and his face turned red, but he did not resist, but continued to bury his head in sorting out his clothes for him.
An Xi knocked on the door, and Zheng Xiyuan motioned for him to come in.
"Young master, the car is ready. β
Nodding, Zheng Xiyuan went downstairs and got into the car. The car, now known as the "Celestial Phantom", soon stopped in front of a hall in Joleni.
At the entrance of the hall, there were waiting attendants to greet them.
Handing over the invitation card in his hand, Zheng Xiyuan walked into the hall. He handed the small box containing his birthday gift to the attendant on the side. At that time, he will hand over the invitation to the housekeeper for counting.
The attendant looked at the silver hairpin in the box, but his face changed. The attitude became more respectful, and he was about to let Zheng Xiyuan sit down, but he didn't want to hear an exclamation at the door: "Oh, it's Delia's guardian." It's a magic guide worth millions of gold coins. Zheng Gongzi, your shot is amazing. β
Zheng Xiyuan was stunned, this hairpin was just blackmailed by him from He Zhihao. is indeed called Delia's guardian, which is He Zhihao's salary during a mission. Secretly praising the eyesight of the person in his heart, he couldn't help but look at the door.
But I saw a middle-aged gentleman with a red face coming in at the door, he walked over and stretched out his hand to Zheng Xiyuan and said, "Zheng Gongzi, I haven't seen you for a long time." β
This person is none other than Porfi Kuwait Newwings Se'lu, who had borrowed a car from Zheng Xiyuan in front of the Greentown Tavern before. (See chapters 54 and 55 for details.) οΌ
Zheng Xiyuan also stretched out his hand to shake him: "I haven't seen you for a long time." How, how did the sports car I sent feel to?"
"It's an indescribable feeling to go for a ride with a beautiful woman. Bofi laughed calmly, with a look of nostalgia.
Zheng Xiyuan also "revealed" a kind smile.
After a farewell at the Greentown Tavern. As promised, he sold several cars to Porphy in advance of the sale. Including sedans, sports cars and women's sports cars of all colors, of course, he also gave discounts on prices, in fact, for the other party, a bull fork who controls the mercenary union, the discount of tens of thousands of gold coins is just symbolic.
But the favor that can be sent, naturally still has to be sent. If this kind of character can make friends with Zheng Xiyuan, he still hopes to make friends, after all, if he wants to step on someone in the future, it is also very important to have connections.
Led by the waiter, the two quickly took their seats in the corner of the banquet. Porphy seemed to have something to talk to him about, so he sat down next to him.
After sobbing for a while, Zheng Xiyuan saw a gleam flashing in Bo Fei's eyes. I knew right away that the main topic was about to begin. Sure enoughβ
"Zheng Gongzi, at first I thought that the magic crystal car was a product of your family, but I inquired a lot, but found that it seemed to be an invention designed by you. It's amazing that you can invent this kind of genius on your own. β
The topic finally revolved to the car, and Zheng Xiyuan smiled modestly: "It's over." β
"I wonder if Gongzi Zheng has any intention of looking for a partner?" Bo Fei asked meaningfully, pinching his beard.
"What do you mean......"
"We, the Dew Beria family, are interested in buying the engine parts design drawings of the Magic Crystal car from Zheng Gongzi. Of course, we don't intend to compete with you, Gongzi Zheng, but want to spread this invention to the foundation of our family, the St. Blaney Empire. β
Zheng Xiyuan shook his head and said, "I'm sorry, if it's that blueprint, I don't have any plans to sell it." β
"Well, if it's a matter of price, our family has prepared six billion gold coins. If you're not satisfied, the price can be slightly increased. Bo Fei thought that Zheng Xiyuan didn't take the 60 billion gold coins into his eyesight, and frowned, but he still hurriedly added.
Zheng Xiyuan looked at him seriously: "You should understand that the design of the engine is much more than this price. β
Just kidding, 60 billion gold coins looks like an astronomical amount. However, let's say that a car can be bought for 50,000 gold coins. Then you only need to sell 1.2 million cars, and you can make a profit. And for the Tianyuan Continent, which has a population of 10 billion, it is obviously not difficult for Zheng Xiyuan to sell 1.2 million vehicles in the future. Monopoly is an important way for him to make money.
Pofi is obviously well aware of this. There was no more point in talking, and he was about to leave. Zheng Xiyuan suddenly said: "Maybe we can cooperate in another way." β
Porphy's brow furrowed, waiting for his next step.
"I can provide you with finished engines for 20,000 gold coins each. Zheng Xiyuan thought for a moment and said.
Hearing Zheng Xiyuan's words, Bo Fei was obviously interested, but he still said in a difficult way: "Zheng Gongzi, you should understand that the price of your car is already quite high, even if you buy your engine and make a finished car in St. Brienny, we can sell it for up to 50,000 gold coins." Twenty thousand gold coins seems a bit ...... I mean, can this price be lowered a bit, how about 10,000 gold coins?"
"For the price of 10,000 gold coins, I barely made any money...... Zheng Xiyuan also pretended to be embarrassed at the right time.
"For 12,000 gold coins, you will receive the friendship of the Selu" Beria family!" Bofi said solemnly, the people of the St. Blaney Empire value their family's reputation very much. Since he has moved out the reputation of his family, it can be seen that he attaches great importance to this transaction.
In the end, in Bo Feiyi's eyes, Zheng Xiyuan nodded reluctantly: "Okay, but you must design the exterior and interior of the car yourself, and you can't copy any of the evil cars." And the price cannot exceed 30,000 gold coins in the future. β
"Oh, that's no problem! I'll go to your house tomorrow to sign the agreement. β
In the end, the deal was happily closed.
Looking at the back of Bo Fei happily leaving, Zheng Xiyuan also laughed wildly in his heart. This is really a surprise to come to this birthday party today.
While it is true that the marketing plan for the taxi has embraced the Magic Crystal in many people in Joleni, there is a process for everything. So far, the sales market for the Magic Crystal car has not yet been opened. Ruoleni Province alone gave Zheng Xiyuan such a headache, let alone promoting the Magic Crystal Car to the entire Tianyuan Continent.
And compared with his own gentleman, the obviously not simple family of Se "Lu" Beria certainly has its own advantages - that is, connections.
Although Zheng Xiyuan relies on the Zheng family, he can be regarded as a not weak connection. But after all, he is still a little "hairy" child in name, and there are not many big people who can bird him. Otherwise, his promotion road would not have required so much effort.
And the Se "Lu" Belia family obviously has no such concerns, although this family is quite mysterious, but looking at Bofei's current power, it is enough to get a glimpse.
The most important thing is that Zheng Xiyuan's current four-sided life is different, they obviously plan to put all their energy into the business of the magic crystal car, if they can lead the "tide" of the magic crystal car in the freest country on the mainland, the St. Blaney Empire, then the Buffy Empire will inevitably follow suit, and the popularity of the Heavenly Evil Car will be foreseeable at that time.
In addition, the engine with an actual cost of less than 100 gold coins was sold for 12,000 gold coins, and it is natural that he can make a lot of money. At that time, it is basically just waiting to collect the money. No one who would have thought of the Belial family would have imagined that an engine that they thought should be extremely complex could actually be so cheap. But they probably won't understand it for the rest of their lives, because there's an explosion scroll in the engine that explodes when you open it.
