Chapter 18: The Olive Branch

"I'm exhausted."

Jiang Ting returned to the room, took off the suit worth hundreds of thousands of Kyushu coins on his body, and threw it on the sofa casually, and then his whole body collapsed on the soft big bed.

"Director......" Wen Xi looked at Jiang Ting, who buried her head in the quilt like a child, and was speechless for a while, her room was next door to Jiang Ting, so she was not in a hurry to go back.

"It's scary to look back on." Jiang Ting shook his head, looking like he was palpitating, the back of his shirt was wet with sweat, and it hadn't dried out until now.

"I'm expected to see someone visit me later." Jiang Ting frowned, "You two go back first, Xu Tao will leave the bronze Xiaoding here, if there is a situation, I will call you." ”

"Yes, Director!" Xu Tao quickly replied that after experiencing the auction scene, his heart has changed a lot, and he is much more confident than usual.

Wen Xi nodded, the auction was not short, she was also a little sleepy, Wen Xi straightened Jiang Ting's suit, and then left the room with Xu Tao.

An hour later.

There was a knock on the door, Jiang Ting, who had just finished washing, was wearing a nightgown, got up and opened the door, and an old British man with a slightly chubby figure and a well-dressed suit appeared in front of Jiang Ting.

“Hello,my dear friend。 I am%@¥! @¥%@%……”

Jiang Ting: "......"

WTF???

The old man of Britain spoke a standard Oxford accent that made Jiang Ting experience the fear of being dominated by spoken words again, and it was only now that he realized that in this kind of place, if he was away from Wen Xi, he would not be able to move an inch.

Except for the beginning, Jiang Ting didn't understand a word of what the old man said.

“Sorry!” Jiang Ting apologized rudely in standard American English, then left the room and walked next door, taking a closer look at the bronze tripod before leaving, to prevent it from being stolen by the old man.

A few minutes later, the door was opened a crack, and Wen Xi, who was wrapped in a bath towel, stood behind the door, and a faint aroma seeped into Jiang Ting's nostrils.

After bathing, Wen Xi's face was flushed, and the undried water stains slid down her shoulders onto the bath towel, leaving a transparent water mark on the snow-white skin, a pair of slender jade legs loomed, and a small patch of green onion white was revealed in the bulge in front of her, which was very attractive.

The moment he opened the door, Jiang Ting saw so much, he was silent for a moment, and then said: "Actually, you don't have to be so vigilant, no one on the whole ship can beat you......"

Wen Xi: "......"

Director, it's easy for people like you to be beaten outside.

After Jiang Ting explained his intentions, Wen Xi dressed very sensibly and followed behind Jiang Ting with wet hair, obviously it was only the second time to work overtime, but her skilled appearance was distressing.

Jiang Ting didn't notice Wen Xi's resentful eyes, he had been paying attention to the movements of the old man in Britain, and only after confirming that the other party had not entered the door and had not put a rope to get the bronze Xiaoding away, Jiang Ting was relieved.

At the same time, Jiang Ting also called Xu Tao by the way, so that it would be easy to deal with any emergencies.

"My friend of the East, hello, my name is Elsie Oresca......"

The old man from Britain was smiling and always maintaining his demeanor, Wen Xi frowned slightly, and tried his best to translate what he said.

"Hello, my name is Jiang Ting." Jiang Ting remained calm and shook hands with Elsie, compared to before, Jiang Ting obviously felt that his aura was much stronger.

Before boarding the cruise ship, Jiang Ting naturally prepared for the class, although the Tianshu Management Office could not get all the information of the tourists, but fortunately, this person named Elsie was not in this case.

With the background information of this Elsie, he has already taken the lead.

"As the saying goes, many friends have many roads......" Elsie was very sincere, Jiang Ting was a little speechless, he really couldn't think of any British proverb that could be translated into this meaning, but looking at Wen Xi's frowning appearance, Jiang Ting could only sigh in his heart.

"I'm here with you, this visit is to cooperate with the Jiang family, we, the Elsie family have strong financial resources and networks, if the two of us can join forces, it will undoubtedly be beneficial to each other." Elsie asked tentatively, "If Mr. Jiang Ting tells me some information about Kyushu, I think that in this way, we will cooperate more closely." ”

Although Wen Xi had already worked hard, she was not from a professional class after all, so the translated words were a little unsmooth, but Jiang Ting still understood what he meant.

This old man named Elsie regarded his Jiang Ting as an upper-class nobleman in Kyushu, and the news of his own release moved Elsie, who wanted to get more information and occupy an advantageous position before this non-existent turmoil began.

Regarding the issue of his identity, Jiang Ting believed that the Tianshu Management Office had been prepared, and many of the news that Elsie inquired about was deliberately released by the Tianshu Management Office.

Mr. Elsie laughed. Jiang Ting laughed heartily, "The entire Kyushu is united, stable as a rock, the Longxiang Empire is united in the same spirit, and the foundation is extremely deep, how can there be turmoil?" ”

Then he saw that Wen Xi's face was blackened by these four idioms......

"Yes, what Mr. Jiang Ting said is, how can there be turmoil in the Longxiang Empire?" Elsie also laughed, "I know the taboo of you Kyushu people...... So Mr. Jiang Ting, what should you think of the dawn of the god of Kyushu? ”

"Dawn of God?" Jiang Ting was stunned for a moment, and then came back to his senses, "Dawn of the gods!" ”

This old man also knows about Reiki revival!

Jiang Ting's mind flowed, he smiled without saying a word, and quietly looked at Elsie Oresca in front of him, and an invisible aura spread from him.

If in a room there are emperors, nobles, soldiers, merchants, as well as a missionary, who is the real ruler here?

The soldier, of course, because he has the ability to shoot anyone.

Now, in this room, Jiang Ting is that soldier!

The sense of oppression brought by the capital tycoons completely disappeared at this moment, Jiang Ting completely adapted to the pressure, and at this moment he was extremely calm and looked at Elsie calmly.

Elsie frowned slightly, he clearly felt that after proposing the "Dawn of the Gods", Jiang Ting's temperament changed abruptly, and he seemed to be in control of everything.

Elsie mentioned the revival of Reiki, as a capital tycoon in Britain, he naturally has a lot of information that ordinary people can't touch, and mentioning this to Jiang Ting at this moment obviously treats Jiang Ting as his own kind.

"The people in the Tianshu Management Office do everything without leakage." Jiang Ting secretly admired. He was sure to believe that in the hour just now, Elsie in front of him had already made contact with Britain, and in the shortest possible time, he had determined his identity - the heir of a major force in Kyushu.

"What do you mean?"

It took a long time for Jiang Ting to respond to Elsie's words, his brows furrowed, his face was a little serious, and Wen Xi struggled for a long time before he translated this sentence in a way that he thought was appropriate.

"You Kyushu people just like to be secretive." Elsie shook his head and said, "Mr. Jiang Ting should know very well that cooperating with the Elsie family will be of great benefit to you. ”

"The Elsie family has a lot of money and great social prestige, and we have cooperated with the laboratories of many of the top universities in Bluestar, which can give the Elsie family a step ahead of the day of the gods." Elsie was a capital tycoon after all, and he quickly broke free from Jiang Ting's aura and took the initiative.

"My child visited Kyushu a week ago, there is no protection of the gods, it is behind the rest of the Blue Star, and even the tropical continent is inferior, if your Jiang family does not seek support from the outside world, it will not be able to survive the arrival of the dawn of the gods." Elsie spread out her hands, looking very determined.

"There is some truth to what Mr. Elsie said." Jiang Ting nodded, the current degree of spiritual energy recovery in Kyushu is indeed lower than the average level of Blue Star, "I just don't know what the Elsie family can help the Jiang family, and what do they want from Kyushu?" ”

Jiang Ting's expression was calm, he decided to observe again, as a capitalist who puts interests first, Elsie's attitude is likely to represent the thoughts of other capital tycoons.

As for the so-called "cooperation", it is naturally impossible, and at the critical moment of aura recovery, the entire Kyushu cannot tolerate the slightest foreign forces, and can only be firmly controlled in the hands of the Kyushu people!

"We can help the Jiang family so that you can stand tall in this turmoil brought about by the dawn of the gods, and even go to the next level, with more wealth and higher status." Elsie smiled confidently, believing that the young man in front of him would not reject him.

"In return, the Elsie family should get some conveniences in Kyushu, such as the right to mine minerals blessed by the gods, or a fief for our employees to rest." Elsie was casual, as if telling a trivial matter.

"Sure enough." Jiang Ting's anger surged, he lowered his head and hid the killing intent in his eyes, "Foreign forces are not dead, more than a hundred years have passed, do they still think that Kyushu is the same as it was back then!" ”

"I'm afraid Mr. Elsie is hiding something, right?" Jiang Ting's face was as usual, and he completely suppressed the anger in his heart, "I think it is necessary for the Jiang family to understand the situation of their allies in order to make the most correct judgment." ”

Elsie's face changed slightly, and Jiang Ting said unhurriedly: "The revival of the aura is imminent, but the Elsie family wants to take precautions?" ”

"Not putting all your eggs in the same basket has always been the rule of the Elsie family." Elsie looked casual, "We must avoid the risks of the gods coming. ”

"It seems that Mr. Elsie still doesn't want to tell the truth." Jiang Ting shook his head, "Without even basic trust, it seems that we can't reach an alliance." ”

"Jiang! What do you mean?! Elsie's face changed slightly, and he even spoke a little unnaturally.

"The current situation of the Elsie family is not as you describe it to be, is it?" Jiang Ting's eyes were shining, "You came to Kyushu to find a way out for the Elsie family!" ”

"Although I am in Kyushu, I am very clear about the current situation of each continent, and Western Europe is now the place where the major forces are intertwined and the most fiercely contested!"

"In 5 million square kilometers of land, 44 countries, I don't know how many financial tycoons, capital oligarchs, and business tycoons are waiting for an opportunity to move in it, and there are forces from other continents who want to get a piece of the pie, how sure can the Elsie family be?" Jiang Ting's eyes were cold and he looked at Elsie.

"What do you mean?" Elsie frowned and asked rhetorically.

"The most critical part of this aura revival is in resources!" Jiang Ting Dong watched the fire, "Countless mineral resources have changed, and whoever can occupy these resources in the early stage of the revival of the aura will be able to seize the opportunity." ”

Jiang Ting is not alarmist, for example, why is there endless war in the Middle East? More than half of the reason is due to oil resources, and whoever can master the oil will be able to master the lifeblood of the Blue Star, which is not an empty phrase.

So far, the oil reserves of the Blue Star countries have reached at least 90 days, which is to ensure the country's energy security, even if the opponent cuts off the oil supply, it can also ensure the normal operation of the national industry.

What if there was an energy source with higher energy, wider use and greater reserves than oil?

Any force will be jealous, right?

"Although the Elsie family is diversified and its capital is involved in various fields, you do not have an advantage in the energy sector." Jiang Ting's thinking became clearer and clearer, "The mineral field has never been the business strength of the Elsie family, and in Western Europe, this field has long been firmly controlled by other capital tycoons, right?" ”

Elsie's face changed greatly, Jiang Ting had the information provided by the Tianshu Management Office in his hands, and it was naturally no secret that the Elsie family's expenditure proportion in various investment fields was naturally not a secret.

"Britain is rich in mineral resources, and it is extremely famous throughout Western Europe, and all kinds of capital have long been eyeing it, and it is not impossible for a large-scale conflict to compete for the resources after the revival of Reiki." Jiang Ting stared at Elsie's eyes, "Mr. Elsie thinks that if there is really a war...... Will the alliance you have abandoned come to your aid? ”

Cold sweat oozing from Elsie's forehead: "No, Western Europe is a whole, they don't sit idly by......"

"You're wrong." Jiang Ting ruthlessly dismissed Elsie's conjecture, "They won't help." ”

"The change brought about by Reiki revival is earth-shattering, and I am sure that it will have more impact than the three industrial revolutions combined!" Jiang Ting was categorical, "In the three industrial revolutions, every initiator will become the center of the Blue Star, and this aura recovery will be even better!" ”

"Reiki revival is not based on the industrial revolution of the past, and in the face of this reiki revival, the gap between any country is almost zero!"

"Every faction believes that with a little chase, it is possible to become the leader of the Blue Star in a short time, do you think they still need to save Britain?"

Jiang Ting spoke, and a fluttering sentence fell, and Elsie's face turned pale, as if he had been hit hard.
