Chapter 110: First Sight (Part II)
Xiao Junling thought about it and decided to put it away, but he had secretly made up his mind that he would never use the money without a compelling reason.
How smart the Zhou sisters are! Just by looking at his expression, you can understand what this guy has in mind. Zhou Yun hesitated for a moment, and finally couldn't help but explain:
"This money was deducted from my sister's future dowry! It's her private property, but you need the authorization of the head of the family to use it! There would have been no such trouble, if you were willing...... Words! ”
"Can you say less?" Zhou Meng blushed instantly, and glared at her sister with some embarrassment.
Xiao Junling understood what she meant, a wealthy woman like them, when she married to the outside world, her mother's family naturally had a lot of wealth as a dowry. Some families will allocate a part of their property to their names from the time they are born, and appoint special personnel to take care of the business, and when they grow up and get married, this wealth will also become their private property and bring it to their husbands' families.
If Xiao Junling's relationship with Zhou Meng can be determined, after obtaining her consent, he certainly has the right to use this wealth. But now, you need the authorization of the head of the family.
"Since that's the case, then sister, your dowry must be quite a lot, right?" He asked casually.
Zhou Yun blushed and said angrily: "You bastard, it's not enough to have a sister, you dare to come to beat me?" ”
"That's not what I meant!" Xiao Junling's scalp tightened, and he hurriedly explained.
"Not? So what do you mean? Zhou Yun asked fiercely.
“…… I just asked casually," Xiao Junling said helplessly, "Since you're unhappy, sister, can I say that I haven't said this?" ”
"Humph! Duducious guy, I'll settle accounts with you when I go back! Zhou Yun glanced at him sideways and shook his fist like a demonstration.
Zhou Meng looked at her sister intently for a while, then looked at him, her beautiful big eyes narrowed slightly, and she said with a smile:
"Actually, I think it's a good idea! If you really like it that much, why don't you marry the two of us together? This also saves you from eating from the bowl and looking at the pot! How is it? Sister is good enough for you, right? ”
"Yes, yes!" Zhou Yun was afraid that the world would not be chaotic and said, "As long as you are willing to say something, our sisters will be your people!" What do you think? Hurry up and take a stand! ”
Xiao Junling only felt a chill in his back, and the feeling of extreme danger rose from the bottom of his heart, and cold sweat suddenly broke out.
It doesn't matter what the two of them think in their hearts, but as long as he doesn't respond properly with one sentence, it is estimated that he will be killed on the spot, and there is nowhere to complain if he dies.
One Zhou Meng is enough for him to have a headache, and now with one more, does he still want to live?
Don't forget that there is a huge family behind them, looking at the entire imperial capital, there are really not many people who are qualified to fight their ideas, and those who dare to be irresponsible after beating their ideas are probably not born!
If you really dare to think of something wrong, it is estimated that the only result is to send the sheep into the tiger's mouth, be eaten by the two sisters, and gnaw until there is no bone residue left! Even his God of War teacher may not be able to protect him.
"Sorry, I'm a little unwell, go to the bathroom first!" Speaking of which, he didn't care about any man's face, he raised his feet and got up, and disappeared in an instant.
The two girls burst into laughter.
"Look! You've scared this guy away! Zhou Meng pinched her sister's waist and smiled.
"And talk about me! Didn't you bring this up? Zhou Yun retorted unconvinced.
"I'm just trying him, I don't want him to react so much, even if this guy still has a little conscience!" Zhou Meng snorted.
"Well, that's the case, but ......" Zhou Yun looked at her suspiciously for a while, and said:
"I think that guy has you in his heart, this is certain! But according to your current approach, sister, if there is no accident, this will be the case between you, and it will be difficult to make new progress! You know what I mean, right? ”
The smile on Zhou Meng's face disappeared, her eyebrows were deep, and she sighed after a while: "That's right, I know what he's worried about!" But there's really nothing to be done about this matter, sister, it's impossible for me to ignore the interests of the family, right? ”
"Are you going to give up on him, then?" Zhou Yun asked.
Zhou Meng shook his head very firmly.
"Then you're planning to break away from the family for him?"
Zhou Meng still shook his head.
"Oops! How can there be the best of both worlds? Zhou Yun had a headache and said,
"If you drag it like this, sister, you want to take care of both sides, and in the end you will definitely fall short on both sides, and you won't get anything, are you sure you want to do this?"
"No way, this ...... I ......" Zhou Meng suddenly found that he had no way to refute his sister's words.
She has already seen that although Xiao Junling has a gentle and easy-going temperament, she is a person with strong self-esteem and an extremely independent thinking and personality in her bones. He really likes himself very much, but it is absolutely impossible for him to sacrifice his independence for this, go to the Zhou family, and become a member of the family completely!
It is a matter of principle, and there is no room for negotiation at all.
In this way, if the two want to continue to be together, then only she can leave the family, give up everything and leave with him, can she do it? For the sake of a man who disregards the interests of the family, this practice is undoubtedly contrary to the education she received since she was a child, and it is the family cultivation that has created her, how can she do such a thing?
Maybe as my sister said, he will leave him one day, so can he afford to lose him?
Zhou Yun looked at her sister's tangled and contradictory eyes, and finally sighed and said:
"If you really can't make up your mind, then separate from him for a while, reflect on what you think in your heart, and then make a choice!"
"Well, that's a solution!" The upset Zhou Meng suddenly realized, and nodded busily:
"It just so happens that my recent cultivation has reached a bottleneck, as long as I sharpen it for a while, it is possible to break through, it is better to go and cultivate for a while first, and then talk to him."
"That's the best!" Zhou Yun said with a smile.
……
The "Fengying" trading house is the largest rare resource trading center in the imperial capital, and it also enjoys a high reputation in the Xinghai world.
The main body of the commercial bank is two sky-blue cylindrical buildings connected together, with a diameter of 300 meters and a height of about 2,000 meters, which is somewhat similar to the original launch vehicle of the Earth Age.
The various rare items that are transported to the Imperial Capital every year from countless overseas Dominions, Starry Sky Ruins, Savage Star Domains, and other channels are definitely an astronomical amount! Most of the best parts are sent here for sale.
All kinds of cosmic treasures, cultural relics and antiques, high-end equipment, and rare mineral resources can be found here. Even if there is no stock, as long as the customer is willing to spend enough money to offer a reward, the huge power behind the firm will always find a way to help you get it!
If the price is sufficient, there is basically nothing that the trading houses can't get. For example, a few years ago, there was a big man who had a lot of money and burned his hands, because he especially liked to eat a rare fruit produced in the territory of a foreign civilization, and planned to get a few fruit trees to plant, but he didn't know that the high-level of the foreign civilization was extremely stubborn, and he refused to give in no matter how high the price was.
As a result, the big man was furious and found the trading house here. Then the top management of the trading house used his huge network of connections to get more than a dozen lords to join forces to destroy the alien civilization, and finally let the big man get his wish.
The Zhou family also owns a certain amount of shares in this firm, so when the Zhou sisters came, they were immediately received by the firm.
"Two young ladies, please come here!" An elderly senior executive in a dark black uniform with a serious and calm expression said politely and welcomed them into the VIP reception room.
“…… We need a piece of information about the various cultivation resources and equipment that can be used by spiritual supernatural beings, can we do it? After a simple greeting, Zhou Meng made it clear what he meant.
The supervisor muttered: "This is no problem, all the goods in the stock of the trading bank, as long as the information in this area can be provided to you!" However, according to the usual practice, we cannot disclose the identities of those entrusted cargo owners! And since the event is still going on, there is no guarantee that there will be better things to be sent for auction by the shippers. ”
"Well, we can understand that!" Zhou Meng nodded and said,
"You can sort out a list of the goods that the firm can call the shots now, and bring it over!"
The efficiency of the business bank was extremely high, and a quarter of an hour later, a pocket light brain was sent to Zhou Meng.
She took it and quickly flipped through it for a while, there were about thousands of things in it, and after deleting the types that could be found in the Zhou family's library, she handed the light brain to Xiao Junling.
A few minutes later, he had deleted all the things that could be found in the vault of the Temple of the Silent Star, and removed some of the items that were not suitable for his use, and there were less than three hundred items that were really worth paying attention to.
"Alright, let's go to the No. 1 exhibition hall and have a look!" Zhou Meng was satisfied.
Under the leadership of the supervisor, several people took a special high-speed elevator and quickly arrived at the circular exhibition hall on the top floor, where the most essential goods of the entire trading house were located.
The huge exhibition hall with an area of tens of thousands of square meters is full of people, and a dazzling array of items is placed in almost every corner of the hall.
Every item here can be said to be a rare treasure in the Star Sea, and being able to put so many treasures together for auction shows the strong strength of this firm, and deduces the status and influence of the Huaxia Empire in the entire Star Sea World!
In the endless flow of passengers in the hall, you can see from time to time the existence of bodies that are completely different from human beings, those guys are all from foreign civilizations, Xiao Junling even found that in the depths of the hall, several Gambino people are whispering around a bronze and stone ball-like object, and they don't know what they are discussing.
