Cheng Luo took Wang Kun and Zhao Shichang to Sanfa, both the layout of the street and the buildings on the street are very Chinese-style. If it weren't for the natives who walked by the streets from time to time, Wang Kun would have thought that he had come to the countryside in ancient China.

After a while, Cheng Luo led the two of them to a building, Wang Kun looked up and saw a wine banner hanging on it, presumably this is the hotel!

Seeing Wang Kun's inexplicable and wonderful expression, he opened his mouth to explain: "This tavern is the property of Xie Jie, the eldest brother of the Heshun General Hall Company, and he is the eldest brother of Dagang Company, the largest company in the Heshun General Hall. So if we want to recruit people here who are satisfied, we have to deal with them. ”

Cheng Luo took the two of them in and asked the guy in front of the counter, "Is the shopkeeper Li here?" ”

The guy who was dozing off was startled when he heard someone asking, and quickly raised his head, and when he saw that it was not his own shopkeeper, he breathed a sigh of relief and replied, "Yes!" It's on the inside! ”

After speaking, without waiting for Cheng Luo to answer, he shouted to the back room: "Someone from the shopkeeper is looking for him!" ”

After a while, I saw a short and fat middle-aged man in a brocade dress coming out of the house.

"Shopkeeper Li, do you remember the little brother?" Seeing the visitor, Cheng Luo asked first.

"Oh! Isn't this General Cheng? Why are you secretly here to spy on the enemy? Isn't your chief concerned about our small place? Seeing that the person who came was Cheng Luoli, the shopkeeper immediately became vigilant.

"Look at what your shopkeeper Li said! If I came to investigate the enemy, would I still come so openly and brightly? Besides, if I really want to investigate the enemy's situation, I won't send a dignified commander of the navy! Cheng Luo knew what the other party was worried about, after all, his status in the Lanfang military was not low before.

"That's right, it's really inappropriate for you to be a general to investigate the enemy's situation, but there are real and false, and virtual and real! This is easy to judge! ”

"You Li Da shopkeeper can laugh and laugh, where is there any truth here, don't tell you that I came here to ask you for something!"

"Huh! You General Cheng is also good at laughing, you are a great general, I am the shopkeeper of a small tavern, what can make you ask me? Shopkeeper Li became even more vigilant when he heard him say this, thinking that there was nothing to do except inquire about the news, so that the other party could lower his posture so much.

"Shopkeeper Li, you misunderstood again! Where is there any General Cheng now, I can't hide it, my brother has offended people this time and has been framed. Fortunately, my brother ran out wittily, and I won't be able to go back to Lanfang in the future! Cheng Luo saw that the other party was vigilant, and knew that the other party had misunderstood. Because Lan Fangguo has a precedent of crusading against Heshun Company, the people of Heshun Company are still very wary of Lan Fangguo now.

"General Cheng is making fun of me again, isn't he? Who doesn't know the name of General Cheng, the first tiger general under Lan Fanghui Luo Fangbo! Is there anyone in your position in the Lanfang Club who can't tolerate you? Shopkeeper Li's fat face was full of disbelief.

"Huh! You also know that the younger brother's personality does not like to argue with others, and his personality is too straightforward, so it is inevitable that he will be calculated. This time, he was calculated by the villain and killed a leader by mistake, which is a capital crime in the Lanfang Society. The brother saw that his life was about to die, and he was unwilling to die at the hands of the villain, but fortunately, the little brother's life should not have met these little brothers, so he was able to escape! After speaking, Cheng Luo pointed at Wang Kun and Zhao Shichang with his finger.

"Oh? I don't know where to get rich? What do you do for a living? "Shopkeeper Li was paying attention to these two people as soon as they met, not that Shopkeeper Li was worried about anything. It's just that these two people are obviously different from others in terms of dress and behavior.

"Wang Kun in Temasek Weifeng Company, this is my brother Zhao Shichang, we have just been established and want to come to Li Shopkeeper and have never heard of it. We are mainly engaged in sea trade transportation, and we can't talk about making a fortune, just eating with a mouthful! Wang Kun won't say his old bottom stupidly this time, he still has to leave a little room for imagination for the other party.

Sure enough, for these old seafarers, they never think that things are so simple. In the opinion of the shopkeeper Li, these people are probably not simple, first of all, Temasek Weifeng Company? Haven't heard of it!

Then they are talking about sea trade transportation, which is a big deal, I'm afraid it's a business without capital!

Shopkeeper Li thinks he's guessed right, but it doesn't matter if they're pirates! Not everyone can go wild with these three shots!

"Oh? I said so! But who are you here this time? "Shopkeeper Li didn't believe that the other party came to drink.

"Huh! To tell you the truth, we came this time, if not for anything else, but to recruit more people. After all, there are fewer people to do our job, and we can't withstand the ships of the Europa! After listening to what Wang Kun said, Cheng Luo knew that Shopkeeper Li would misunderstand.

Sure enough, Cheng Luo saw Shopkeeper Li's expression that I knew, you don't need to lie to me. Cheng Luo knew that the other party had misunderstood. Cheng Luo felt that if there was a misunderstanding, it would be a misunderstanding, so that they would be less vigilant.

Hearing this, Shopkeeper Li's face was incredible, and he began to think that you Cheng Luo are doing what you are trying to do? You come to the site of my and Shun headquarters company to recruit people, and then come to do business with me and Shun headquarters. What is your heart Cheng Luo?

However, when he heard that the other party was going to deal with the Europa, Shopkeeper Li felt that it was unrealistic, as a person who had lived overseas for many years. We all know how sharp the Europa warships are, and the Chinese ships have no malice on the other side when they encounter the Europa ships. Because you can't run, you can't run, you can't beat and you can't fight, unless you win more or less, you can only wait for death.

Seeing the expression of Shopkeeper Li, Cheng Luo knew that the other party did not believe in his own ability, and he did not believe that he could rob the ship of the Europa.

"It seems that Shopkeeper Li will not believe that we have this ability, and I can't hide that I have been the commander of the navy army in Lanfang for so many years, and I have been thinking about how to deal with Europa's warship. Hey! Don't say that I really figured it out in the end, so you have to believe that I have a way! ”

Shopkeeper Li was still a little unconvinced, but he still nodded, as long as the other party didn't pay attention to himself, he didn't care what he was going to do.

"Huh! It's easy to say that you want to recruit people, but it's just ......"

As soon as Cheng Luo heard the other party's agreement, it would be easy to do: "Don't worry about this, everything will be in accordance with your rules." We won't give you less, we can give you as much as you say. ”

"It doesn't matter, it's just that this is a desperate job, and after all, this has to listen to people's own opinions. So I'm not sure if I can help you, but you have to be mentally prepared. ”

"This is going to cost Shopkeeper Li a lot of trouble, as for the remuneration? This is good to say, as long as you Li shopkeeper speaks, my brother will not treat you badly! ”

"Look at what your brother Cheng said, to be honest, we have known each other for more than ten years, and this time the so-called honorarium brother doesn't want you. It's just that my brother has a reluctant request, please don't do anything to our own people in the future, after all, we all came out to make a living, and it's not easy for everyone! ”

"This Brother Li, you can rest assured, don't you know what kind of person I am? I've always hated people who were cruel to their own people. ”

Shopkeeper Li knew why Cheng Luo said this, because the two of them had been on the territory of the Heaven and Earth Society for a long time, and they were bullied and bullied all day long.

"You and I still believe it, but I'm afraid that what you say won't be counted when the time comes!" Shopkeeper Li looked at Wang Kun with a playful expression.

Wang Kun knew that the other party could see that he was the leader of this team, so he did not deny that he met the eyes of Shopkeeper Li and said, "You can rest assured of this, and I can guarantee it." ”

"That's good, I believe what you say, you can wait here with peace of mind about people's affairs, and I'll take care of it for you!" After speaking, Shopkeeper Li said to the guy next to him: "What's the matter with you guy, the guests have been here for so long, why don't you serve tea?" It's true, you have a little eyesight! ”

Cheng Luo only smiled when he heard this, he didn't care too much about this, he was a member of the Lanfang Society after all. After all, there are still many contradictions with them and Shun Company, and it is right for people to be vigilant about themselves.

After speaking, he said to the three of them: "You guys take a rest here now, and I'll help you get it right!" Oh! By the way, how many people are you going to hire? ”

"For the time being, we plan to recruit at least 100 people, and of course we can recruit more and better." They had discussed fifty people before, but Cheng Luo deliberately said more, because he knew that the other party would definitely discount.

"Well, you guys wait here! I'll come when I go! Ah Shui! Don't forget to serve tea to your guests! "This last sentence was addressed to the guy just now.

Seeing Shopkeeper Li leave, Zhao Shichang touched the gun in his hand. Cheng Luo said with a smile when he saw it: "You can rest assured here!" This is not Lan Fangguo, and no one will swallow your stuff alone. They are a large corporation of thirteen companies, more of an alliance than a combination. They only unite when they are threatened from outside, and they usually do their own business, so if you don't do this business, someone else will do it. ”

Speaking of this, Cheng Luo looked at the expressions of the two of them, and said: "Thirteen companies have contact points here, and everyone comes according to the rules, so you can still rest assured here." ”

"I only believe in the gun in my hand, and I believe that people's ** will make them lose their minds." After experiencing yesterday's events, Zhao Shichang is not so easy to believe in these people.

After a while, the man in the tavern brought the tea, and it was not yet noon, so there was no one in the store at all. So the guy finished serving the tea and went back to the counter and dozed off.

Since there was no one else in the store now, only three people sat in the hall. So Zhao Shichang looked at the deserted hall and pouted to indicate that he was very unhappy now.

Wang Kun knew that he had some thoughts about Shopkeeper Li's hospitality, but in fact, Wang Kun didn't care about this, but he was just curious, it stands to reason that in ancient times, didn't they pay attention to etiquette? Presumably, this is because people don't care much about this overseas!

Cheng Luo seemed to see their doubts, and explained: "They are avoiding suspicion, after all, I used to be a member of the Lanfang Society, and when we fought against the Heaven and Earth Society back then, we all fought together, so everyone knew each other." Now that I'm here all of a sudden, if they take us to the back room, other companies will have something else to think about. ”

Cheng Luo took a sip of water to moisten his throat and continued: "After all, they are only a temporary nominal union, and there is no necessary guarantee, so everyone is usually wary of each other." They are afraid that they will be betrayed at some point, or that some people will betray them. So they made us sit in the hall and wait, to tell people that we weren't plotting anything, that we were talking about business in the open. ”

Hearing this, Wang Kun and Zhao Shichang said that they understood!
