Chapter 15 3 Unexpected Joy
Li Tianhao and his entourage returned to Horur City, and Gernas led the generals out of the city to greet them. Jamo duly stirred up his flattering tongue and praised everyone, and the title of "Sycophant" Jamo became famous. Li Tianhao noticed that there was no Mueller among the people who came to greet him, and couldn't help asking, "Where did Mueller go?" β
Gernas replied with a smile: "The Young Alliance Master doesn't know, in the past few days when you have been out to investigate, we have a distinguished guest here, and Lord Mueller and your distinguished guest are waiting for you in your temporary mansion. β
"Guest?" Li Tianhao's eyes rolled, and then he said happily: "It's Elda!" β
"I can't hide anything from you." Gernas smirked.
As soon as he heard that Elda was coming, Li Tianhao didn't care about anything else, and trotted all the way. Looking at Li Tianhao's unusually steady and sophisticated demeanor, and his cheerful pace like a teenager, everyone was taken aback. Yamo said: "What kind of person is this Elda, Lord Li's **?" β
Alam fell back and hurriedly spat out: "Don't talk nonsense! It was the Boss's former subordinate, and now the Boss's agent, in charge of their family's entire merchant fleet and maritime commerce. β
Yamo's eyes widened when he heard this: "Lord Li turned out to be a sea merchant, but I can't see it at all. β
Alam glanced at him and said, "You're still the deputy director of intelligence, you still have a lot of work to do." After that, he followed Li Tianhao all the way.
Li Tianhao and Alam ran all the way into the mansion, and before they reached the living room, they had already shouted: "Elda! I'm back! β
The two people in the room also walked out when they heard the voice, Elda in front and Muller followed, each saluting Li Tianhao.
Li Tianhao helped Elda up and said, "I haven't seen you for more than a year in a blink of an eye, it looks like you have worked hard this year, and you have lost a lot of weight." β
"With the concern of the master, Elda is ashamed."
"Lord Elda, it's been a long time." Alam then greeted Elda.
Elda touched his head and said, "Alam, you have grown a lot taller, and you will be a young man in two years." β
"You're welcome, let's go in and sit down and talk." Li Tianhao took his hand and walked towards the house together: "Tell me how our business group has been doing this year?" β
Entering the house, the three sat down separately, and Alam stood behind Li Tianhao. Elda replied: "Back to the master, the total profit of our family has increased by thirty percent this year, but I have not increased the scale of the business by this thirty percent, on the contrary, I have also withdrawn two percent of the original funds, and invested these funds in the construction of high-speed armed merchant ships, and it is expected that a fleet of one hundred and twenty ships can be formed by the middle of this year, and then we can use this force to block the foreign trade in the eastern part of Yaqui." β
"No, don't do that just yet." Li Tianhao said.
"What? Why? It wasn't Elda who said this, it was MΓΌller.
Li Tianhao looked at Mueller, then at Elda and said, "I estimate that I won't be able to launch an attack on Yaqi here within this year, I think it would be better for you to blockade it next year or the year after." In the meantime, I want you to use this fleet to exterminate pirates! If we block Yaqui's shipping, there is no guarantee that they will not unite with the pirates to deal with us, so instead of fighting on both sides at that time, it is better to deal with the pirates first! Destroying pirates now will not only allow the fleet to gain the necessary combat experience, but also make a name for itself among the nations, so that our fleet will become stronger and stronger, and when the time comes, we will be stronger, and I will be even stronger here, and when the time comes, we will work together to strangle Yaki. β
Elda showed a satisfied smile, lowered her head and said, "The master is far-sighted, Elda must pursue the master's strategy." β
Li Tianhao leaned forward and said, "Now tell me what special reason you came here for?" β
Elda showed a strange smile: "Back to the master, my subordinates have three things to do this time. The first is that Lord Lingtang has asked me to bring a message, do you want to listen to it now? β
Li Tianhao couldn't help but smile bitterly when he heard this, and said, "Say it, but don't go too far, just express the core meaning." β
Hearing this, Elda laughed and said, "That's simple, what Lingtang said is 'She's in good health, you don't have to worry, you quickly help your father avenge me and get back!'" Your sister is getting old, and if you don't come back soon, I'll marry her off at my own pace!" ββ
Li Tianhao lowered his head and held his forehead with his hand and said, "It's so troublesome, how long is the original text?" β
"About two meals."
"Alam, you are not allowed to talk nonsense when you go out," Li Tianhao stopped Alam who was covering his mouth and snickering behind him, raised his head and said: "The next time my mother says this, you can tell her that I won't go back, my sister is still young." β
"This γ»γ»γ»γ»γ»γ» subordinates dare not say it."
"What would you not dare? When my sister reaches the age of leaving the cabinet, won't I marry her to you? You two already knew each other, and didn't you wait for my sister all the time? β
"Thisγ»γ»γ»γ»γ»γ» this, master, I γ»γ»γ»γ»γ»γ» that γ»γ»γ»γ»γ»γ»" Elda's clever tongue betrayed his master in an instant, allowing his master's face to swell like a boiled crab.
"It's awkward, who can't see that you have a crush on my sister? If you really like it, you can do it yourself, anyway, I have permission, and I don't care about the rest. β
"Okayγ»γ»γ»γ»γ»γ» this subordinateγ»γ»γ»γ»γ»γ» subordinate will handle it at his discretion," Elda said as she poured a whole glass of honey water, stabilized her mood before continuing: "The second thing is that my subordinate has brought you a total of three thousand military horses, two thousand horse crossbows, two thousand crossbows, four hundred and twenty heavily armed mercenaries from Paz and Sindra, and fifty armed guards of our Li family. β
"So much? How many ships have you brought," Li Tianhao was overjoyed when he heard this: "You spent a lot of money on this formation, right?" β
Elda smiled: "Actually, my subordinates originally planned to help the master seize Port Potsmo, but I didn't expect the master to take the lead. β
Li Tianhao smiled with joy: "This is a great achievement for you, I am about to fight a big battle here, these things are too timely." β
"Don't be in a hurry, host. In fact, the subordinate also brought you a person, and this person is the biggest purpose of the subordinate's trip, and it is also the greatest credit of the subordinate's trip. β
Li Tianhao's eyebrows moved: "Who is that?" β
Elda smiled, "My subordinate happened to meet this person in Port Kari in Sindra two months ago, and he has a lot to do with his master. Do you remember Mr. Fu back then? β
"Old Master Fu? Of course I remember. β
Elda adjusted her sitting posture and said, "This person is the weird junior brother that Old Master Fu often mentions, Wei Song, Wei Yannian. β
"Wei Yannian! That geek? He's here! Li Tianhao couldn't help jumping up from his seat when he heard this: "Where are the others?" Take me to him! β
Elda also stood up and said, "He's sitting in the back room, Mr. Wei, please come out." β
As soon as Elda finished speaking, she saw a man come out of the inner room.
