Gao Yutian stepped into the hall with steady steps, and saw a thin and tall middle-aged man with a fleshless face, living like a zombie guy, sitting and talking with the relevant people, but the pair of eyes in the deep recess, but from time to time looking around, showing a cunning look, it didn't look like a good bird, this thing was called Zhu Ba.

Zhu Bayi saw Gao Yutian walk in, and hurriedly stood up. He had watched Gao Yutian's fandom more than once, and he could recognize him from his face. But today's humble attitude is not a reverence for Gao Yutian's martial arts. As a millionaire's butler, he is also arrogant when he enters and exits the door of the powerful and gentry, and of course he will not put a martial artist in his mind.

The question is that before coming, Clark repeatedly told Gao Shikui and Gao Yutian to be "polite", can he take the rare behavior of the master lightly?

"Mr. Gao," he bowed respectfully, "Chairman Clark has asked me to come here to invite the two Mr. Gao to come over and discuss important matters. As he spoke, he handed Gao Yutian a letter printed with "Clarke's Co., Ltd."

Gao Yutian nodded slightly, took the letter, please give Zhu Ba tea, and then he also sat down on the rosewood Taishi chair on the coffee table next to him, opened the letter and looked at it, the content was the same as what Zhu Ba said, but the words were very humble, and after a while, he glanced at Zhu Ba, and then said: "My uncle is out, and when he comes back, I will understand the hospitality of Chairman Clark, and then make a plan, what do you think?" ”

"Chairman Clark has instructed that only one of the two gentlemen will be willing to appreciate his face. Since Mrs. Gao is not here, do you want to ask Mr. to work? Zhu Ba said in a sincere tone.

"This ......" Gao Yutian stood up after thinking for a while, and said categorically, "That's good, it's better to be respectful." ”

Seeing that he agreed, Zhu Ba accompanied Gao Yutian out of the hall with joy. At the gate, he hurriedly took the first step, opened the door of an ink-colored car parked on the side of the road, bent down and said, "Please!" ”

Gao Yutian didn't push and got into the car. As the car sped through the street and the Clark Company building flashed by, Gao Yutian was a little surprised and thought, "Where is he going?" ”

Zhu Ba, who was sitting next to him, seemed to see through his thoughts, and without waiting for him to speak, he explained: "Chairman Clark said that there are many people in the company, please ask Mr. Gao to meet at Clark Villa on Hongqiao Road, thank you for your patronage." ”

It is a red-tiled and yellow-walled English classic-style country house, and before its construction, Clark spared no expense in bringing high-end oak and other building materials from England. Climb the stairs into the foyer, which is flanked to the south by the living room and dining room, and to the north by the reception room and study. The living room's wooden frame is exposed on the wall, with wooden windows and a large stove, making it feel like you are in the countryside.

The villa is surrounded by a lawn and wood, and the courtyard has sculptures, a manger, a drinking fountain and a glass flower house. The fountain is located in the annex building. Zhu Ba led Gao Yutian from south to east, through a skewer-shaped staircase, to the second floor, let him into a delicate small living room, and invited him to sit down.

"You sit down for a while, and I'll go and ask the chairman." After Zhu Ba finished speaking, he cautiously walked out of the side door.

Gao Yutian looked at the room, which was uniquely furnished, with oil paintings from the Bible hanging on the walls around it. Gao Yutian has been painting since elementary school, so he can generally see the stories in his paintings. Such as the drift of Noah's ark, the confusion of Adam and Eve, the operation of the Three Apostles, and the holy conception of the Virgin Mary......

Suddenly, he heard a faint sound of prayer coming from outside, and looked at it, and it turned out to be coming from an open round window. Curious, he approached the window and saw that there was a corridor outside, and a room was open on the opposite side, and he could see the scene of the room: on the front wall was a statue of Confucius, and in front of the statue, there was a kneeling figure of a woman in a white robe, and the sound of prayer came from her mouth.

This big beauty knelt on the ground motionless, her black hair, long draped over her shoulders, even if it was a back, it was enough to make people feel that the kneeling person was very pious.

Gao Yutian echoed two words in his heart: "Obsession!" It is no wonder that his hometown of Ganyu Qingkou is next to the temple, but some people who are duplicitous have given him a living negative education. People taught him that when someone hits you on the left cheek, you have to send the right flip to the risk! And what he thought was that when someone hit me on the left side of the cheek, I was going to punch him in the right cheek......

The footsteps sounded, and Gao Yutian hurriedly flashed and returned to his original seat. As soon as he sat down, Sassoon walked in through the other door with a smile on his face.

After a few words of cold talk, Clark said bluntly: "The reason for inviting you to come: that is, the Lantern Festival is approaching, and the foreign chambers of commerce in the region have decided to celebrate it well and celebrate the festival with the citizens of Shanghai." As the vice president of the Chamber of Commerce, I am ready to make a contribution. ”

"It's been like this in previous years, and there are no new flowers." Gao Yutian Road.

"However, now we have invited 30 martial arts halls at home and abroad, and when the competition will win the lottery, we see that 28 martial arts halls have already agreed, and they have given an affirmative answer. Only you, the patriotic hall with the highest martial arts and the most famous reputation, have not heard back, so we specially invite the two to come to discuss. ”

Gao Yutian couldn't help but complain in his heart that his junior brother was related, why didn't he say hello to himself beforehand. But after thinking about it, maybe the stubborn master didn't tell him. But how to answer it now?

Just as he was silent, Clark said again: "This time, Clark Company is determined to pay the price of 10,000 oceans......"

Gao Yutian, who was worried about raising the huge amount of money needed, couldn't help but feel moved when he heard it. This is obviously a great opportunity. But he immediately thought of his master Gao Shikui, who hated greed for money and profit the most in his life, and if he didn't convince him, he would rashly agree, and the result would inevitably make his old man angry, and even the Aiguo Hall would not participate at all. Thinking of this, he didn't move, but said, "The stakes are very high, and we must discuss with Master Gao Shikui before replying." ”

"Is this...... All right! Clark said.

The more this is the case, the more heartfelt Clark becomes, and after repeated begging, Gao Yutian promised: "Within one day, I will give you a clear answer." ”

When Clark sent Gao Yutian, he happened to meet the many white-robed women in the hallway. After Clark's introduction, Gao Yutian knew that this was the famous daffodil, and the impression left on him was only eight words: glamorous and cold.

After Gao Yutian left Clarke's villa on Hongqiao Road, he was not in a hurry to return to Aiguo Hall to find Gao Shikui, the problem was not only that on a day like today, he didn't want to make an exception for Master, but the important thing was that he deeply understood Master's personality. The contest was linked to the purchase of guns to resist Japan, and he was convinced that Gao Shikui would be duty-bound.

The problem now circling in Gao Yutian's mind is to try to find clues to buy guns. Little devils are not allowed to buy and sell guns openly, but it is an open secret that the underworld forces buy and sell in large quantities in private.

There is a saying: people die for money, and birds die for food! One side wants to forbid, while the other side wants to buy and sell, and conflicts occur from time to time. News of the exchange of fire between the military police and arms smugglers who are anti-smuggling is revealed in the newspapers almost every few days. But it is not easy to buy a gun and hook up with these outlaws.

Gao Yutian searched in his mind while walking, and finally remembered a person, this person is called the young shopkeeper, and the acquaintance of the good man Gao Yutian and the young arms shopkeeper is purely accidental.
