Chapter 384: I Can't See Through Him (1/3)
PS: Today's three watches, kneel and beg for recommendation tickets, ask for collections, and ask for subscriptions.
It was still the entertainment and dance hall in the ship, in the unobtrusive corner cubicle as yesterday, and in order to keep it secret, Lan Watson also deliberately asked the waiter in the boat to close the beaded curtain of the cubicle.
This businessman, who looked square-faced, sturdy, and looked very principled, but in fact had a black hand and a poisonous heart, looked like a warm smile at this time: "Young Master Eru, how did you figure it out?" ”
As he spoke, the beautiful woman in the black dress yesterday was respectfully pouring ale wine into the wine glasses in front of the three people present.
The order in which she pours the wine is interesting, the first is not her master, nor Eru, but Rollin, who sits silently and tries to reduce the feeling of zài, then her own master, and finally Eru's turn.
If Eru is narrow-minded, this detail is enough to make him unhappy and alienate Rollin, and no one wants his guards to be more valued than himself.
But Eru didn't notice this at all, in fact, his eyes were completely attracted by the charming woman in front of him.
This woman did not wear yesterday's black silk skirt, but changed to a dark red wide-sleeved narrow-waisted cashmere close-fitting low-cut long skirt that matched the burgundy hair color, this skirt showed the advantages of her figure without omission, round breasts, jade-like skin, slender and fleshy waist, round and delicate buttocks, looming long legs, coupled with this woman's perfect facial features, hazy eyes, and a good smell like an orchid fragrance exuded on her body, the impact on Eru, a teenager who had just debuted and had not seen much of the world, was very huge.
Now. Eru's eyes straightened slightly. stared at the red lips of the woman in front of him, stared at her half-exposed breasts, and peeked at the curve between her waist and crotch. Attention is all on the woman, the heart is pounding, and all sorts of fantasies appear in the mind. As for what Lan Watson was saying, he only heard the voice, but he didn't know the specifics.
Seeing this scene, Lan Watson took a sip of his wine glass, and when he lowered his head to drink, he could see the disdain shown at the corner of his mouth, and the beautiful woman sitting next to him was also a veteran. Seeing that he had seduced a noble young master, it was needless to say that he was proud in his heart, and the smile on his face became more sweet and charming.
Luo Lin looked at it coldly from the side, but he admired Lan Watson's negotiation strategy of opening the way for beauties, he had Vianna, he had seen many peerless beauties, not to mention the others, this vision had reached a certain level, the woman in front of him may be the most beautiful and feminine in this dance hall today, but among all the women he had seen. At most, it can only score a seven, which is just an upper middle. Except for the first glance, the rest of the time he was too lazy to take a look.
At this time, seeing that Eru was bewildered by beauty, he knew that if he didn't interfere, the negotiation would suffer a big loss, so he spit out an eye circle in the face of the woman opposite, and when the other party retreated to dodge, Rollin patted Eru on the shoulder heavily, patting him awake, and then pointed to Wen Jiàn on the table, and said to Oranson: "Why don't you take a look?" ”
Wolanson laughed, "Of course, Vizzie, you read it to me softly. ”
Wei Qi, that is, the name of the beautiful woman, she picked up the text on the table and read it one by one in a clear and soft voice, she did not say the specific content of the treaty, but said the number of the treaty on the text, which sounded like a code word, and Lan Watson also understood, obviously, he was extremely familiar with this contract.
When he finished listening, Lan Watson smiled: "Young Master Eru, you are so stingy, who will help you?" ”
Eru glanced at Wei Qi nostalgically, and the other party smiled softly from him, and the laughing Eru trembled in his heart, and almost forgot about the business, but he was still a little reliable, and hurriedly cleaned up his feelings, haha smiled, and said according to the words that discussed with Luo Lin in name and were actually Luo Lin's personal opinions: "President, we are talking about business, of course I want to fight for more interests for myself, what are you not satisfied with, you say, we can discuss it again." ”
Lan Watson was stunned for a moment, and then laughed heartily: "Young Master Eru is right, you see that I am not old, but my heart is confused. Then let's talk about it. ”
He snapped his fingers, and Wei Qi next to him spread Wen Jiàn on the table, and then he began to report the specific target number, Wei Qi quickly found the corresponding position on Wen Jiàn, Lan Woqi didn't look at it, and began to say about the specific entry: "Young Lord Eru, look here, my Chamber of Commerce needs some wood every year, and those nobles are very stingy, it just so happens that there is a hunting ground in the south of Lionheart City, and my requirements are not high, only 3,000 trees a year, and it does not affect the life of the prey in the hunting ground, How did you cross this out? ”
Eru has discussed carefully with Luo Lin, and has a specific grasp of the scale of each item, which can be slightly relaxed in exchange for benefits, which are resolutely not moved, and which can even be increased, and they are very clear in their hearts that the wood item belongs to the one that can be relaxed a little, and the reason why it is directly crossed out is just to give the other party some psychological pressure.
He laughed: "You are not a nobleman, and you do not know the life of a nobleman. This hunting ground is the face of a nobleman, the hunting ground must not only have a variety of prey, there must be fierce beasts, but also have giant trees and ancient trees to decorate, in order to appear to have a long history and profound heritage. You are going to cut down these centuries or even thousands of years old trees now, and your lumberyard is destined to make a mess of my family's hunting grounds, and our family will be laughed at by others. ”
"I guess now isn't the time to talk about the face of the family, right?" Blue Watson laughed.
"Face is another form of prestige, which can be related to the survival of a family. A family without prestige will have no one to follow, and it will decline rapidly. ”
"Okay, okay, I'll admit you're right. But I do need some ancient wood, you know, the better timber on the Starlet continent has been enclosed by those big families into hunting grounds, and it is getting harder and harder to get it, and my chamber of commerce has a big business of selling precious ancient wood furniture."
"I think it's okay," Eru began to offer a compromise.
Gradually, the two began to argue, and slowly, Eru left the beautiful Miss Vizzie aside. He began to enter the state of a future lord. Fighting for their own interests in the slightest.
Rollin sat on the side. Seeing that Eru was blushing and arguing with Lan Watson for a small clause, Cheng Dù even began to slap the table, and Lan Watson also began to get serious, and couldn't help but smile.
This is a character worthy of support, otherwise the mud can't be on the wall, and Rollin estimates that he will have to flash as soon as he lands.
Of course, Rollin was much more tolerant of Eru than the others, because he felt that this was the Eru of the later generations, and the other party helped him a lot. He deserves something in return.
Eru and Lan Watson talked for more than four hours before they reached an agreement on a small half of the items, and more than half were pending, at this time it was also a little late, and Eru was also a little tired, and agreed to continue tomorrow, so he took Rollin and left.
Fortunately on the way, Eru didn't show anything unusual, but as soon as he returned to the cabin, Eru couldn't hold back. Eyebrows fluttered and said, "Rollin, I feel great." It turns out that there is such a great pleasure in becoming the lord of the city, I control the resources of a city, and I control the happiness of hundreds of thousands of people in a city, this is really a huge force, much more huge than the force of a samurai, I like this sense of power to control a qiē! ”
Come on, this kid tasted power for the first time, and he was a little dazed, so in order not to let him inflate himself to the point of arrogance, Luo Lin struck: "Young master, as far as I know, you are not the city lord now. ”
Eru was stunned, only to feel a stream of cold water splashing over, and his enthusiasm disappeared without a trace, and he suddenly said with some dissatisfaction: "Luo Lin, you can't make me happy for a while." ”
Luo Lin took a puff of his cigarette, squinted his eyes and said, "There is a saying that if you want to make people ruined, let him go crazy first." As your bodyguard, I will always prevent you from falling into the madness of ruining Miè. ”
Seeing that Eru's face was still a little disapproving, Luo Lin continued: "Young Master, restraint is very important, your father should have said something similar to you, right?" Who do you think is more experienced in being a lord than your father? ”
"Of course my father, he was loved by the people of the city." Eru still admired his father very much, and after a long time, he said, "My father said that a warrior must have the courage to draw his sword, but he must also have the restraint to draw his sword. ”
'Click' Rollin snapped his fingers: "Yes, that's right." Hide your sword and show it when you really need it. ”
"You make me think about it." Eru couldn't figure out these things in his head, and he needed to be still.
Rollin, of course, had to grant his wish, opened the hatch, and leaned against it to act as a guard.
Juta was also there, and when he saw Luo Lin coming out, his face was a little unhappy. Ignoring the guard's little jealousy, Rollin threw him a cigarette and lit it himself, and began to swallow the clouds, first by himself, then by Juta, and finally the two of them chatted at the door.
In another cabin on the ship, Lan Watson and his female assistant did not rest, of course, did not do anything inappropriate, but carefully analyzed the opponent.
As an illegitimate child, Lan Watson can create today's family business, relying on unremitting diligence and a high degree of restraint, he will never indulge his **, such as Weizi, the female assistant, she is very beautiful, but Lan Watson needs her mind not her body.
"In the two days before and after, this Eru has changed a lot. It was only when I first looked at me that I felt that he was still a young boy. Weizi sighed.
"That's why I said the guard wasn't easy." Lan Watson stood in front of the window with a wine glass, looked at the sea outside the window, and said seriously: "To be honest, I can't see through him." ”
"That's why you asked me to try to drive a wedge between them?" Weizi asked.
"Of course. But don't make it so obvious now, just throw some seeds, we still need this guard, only if he is there, this Eru can become the lord of the city. Otherwise, our upfront investment will be in vain. Lan Watson laughed.
"And what about after that?"
"Later?" Lan Watson smiled: "Now, Eru needs such a capable subordinate, when he becomes the lord of the city, after a year or two, and sits in a stable position, he will rely on that guard much less, and he will have a lot of courtiers and villains who can't do anything but flattery around him." At that time, with a little provocation, this guard will lose his status even if he doesn't die, hehe. ”
Without prey, what is the use of this sword?
"The master is so wise!" Vizzie boasted. (To be continued......)
