Chapter 177: Guarding the Might
Lance was the first to thank the Mutes family.
"You're welcome, since the Morin family cooperates with my Mutters family to do business, it is also appropriate to help in an emergency," Serena also said skillfully, "In addition to doing some family affairs this time, I also stopped by to see my son Cohen, and now that he is fine, I am relieved, and I want to thank the head of the Lance family for taking care of him." ”
"Where is it, Young Master Cohen is a genius, if it weren't for him, there would really be no Morin family today, Madame is so blessed," Lance said with a smile.
"You are too praised, the courage and wisdom shown by your sons and daughters in times of crisis are even more enviable, the head of the Lance family, Serena has come with another mission this time, this is Harris, the head of the Mutes Family Chamber of Commerce in the imperial capital, you knew him before, and I hope you can help him to a certain extent this time, after all, others are soft-spoken, and you are already a heavyweight in the empire's business. ”
"Madame is too polite, even if you don't look at Young Master Cohen's face, Lance can ignore the grace of the Mutters family in need, the Morin family knows how to be grateful, Madam, you can rest assured," Lance said very sincerely.
Serena nodded, and finally ended the conversation after negotiating with Lance about some aspects of the Chamber of Commerce's cooperation.
And at this moment, Cohen was already listening drowsily.
"Master Lance, thank you for your hospitality, then let's go to the Chamber of Commerce guards to visit Uncle Xia first, I've delayed you a lot, I'll have Cohen with you," Serena slowly got up and said goodbye.
Lance insisted on being delivered to the gate, and the talks ended in a friendly atmosphere.
"It's boring," Lynco grumbled as he followed Serena with a smile on her face, and after walking a long way.
Serena's standard smile suddenly froze on her face, but Harris and the others consciously took a few steps behind and pretended not to hear.
"What do you mean by boring?!, you kid, you are really ......" Serena exhaled and put on an impeccable smile again, "no matter what the outcome is, this face-saving matter still has to be taken into account, and you are now in the circle of businessmen, and you have to study hard with your mother." ”
"Forget it," Lin Ke waved his hand completely indifferently, "If you have time, you should teach Xue'er more, she will probably be the one who will run with Uncle Lance in the future." ”
Serena looked at him in surprise and said no more.
The camp of the Chamber of Commerce escort is some distance away from the Chamber of Commerce, and it was already afternoon when Serena and the others arrived here, but the guards who participated in the training did not rest, and were doing actual combat drills on the field under the scorching sun.
Eller immediately saw Selena and her party walking in from outside the camp, and while he was watching the drill, he instantly changed his order, and yelled at the crowd here, "Defend the formation, guard the VIPs!"
The two sides of the guards, who were originally fighting in a mess, quickly assembled and lined up and ran in a tight formation, and in the blink of an eye, they surrounded Lin Ke and his party, with their backs inward and outward, but the murderous aura came to their faces, scaring the guards of the Mutes family in the imperial capital into a little panicked.
Harris's old face turned red instantly.
"The enemy is outnumbered, fight to the death!" Erler in the distance shouted again, and the guards and soldiers who surrounded Lin Ke and his party almost at the same time drew their swords!
"Choke!"
"Kill!"
Momentum * people!
The team of Lin Ke and his entourage was a little scattered, but the mother and son who were standing at the front did not panic at all.
Lin Ke smiled and began to applaud, "The initial military prestige of the guards of the Customs Chamber of Commerce is worth celebrating, and after today's drill, all the guards can receive an additional hundred silver rewards!"
"Thank you, sir!" roared a man.
"Thank you, sir!" said the loud man.
Observation deck at the camp of the Guards.
"The daughter has really had some effect, and the morale is a lot higher," Serena glanced at Lin Ke with a smile and said, "Seventh Uncle, now that Young Master Cohen is really wealthy, this gesture of spending a lot of money is really beautiful, right?"
Eller said with a rare smile, "These guards have been trained for a period of time and experienced the baptism of the Chamber of Commerce, and those who remain are also worthy of rewards, and some sounds can still be heard when Cohen's gold coins are smashed." ”
"What is spent is the money, what is taken back is the heart, I know that most of the guards here are from civilians, many from other places, for these guards who tie their heads to the waistbands of their trousers, every coin is precious, I am not short of money, but lack of heart, loyal heart. ”
Eller laughed "hey" and said no more.
Selina glanced at him and said, "Talking is becoming more and more childlike, I really don't know whether to praise you or scold you, the escort has the current scale and popularity, and it is naturally based on your seventh grandfather's hard work, do you really think that if you throw some money, this people's hearts will gather? ”
Lin Ke nodded yes, a little disappreciative in his heart, "Seventh Grandpa, I really can't call the Sixteen Iron Guards out alone to talk? I haven't come to see them for a long time." ”
"No, as an officer, you must have the consciousness of sharing weal and woe with the soldiers, and the soldiers should not leave the team without permission before the drill is over," Eller said without the slightest affection.
Lin Ke pursed his lips helplessly.
Serena smiled and nodded Lin Ke's forehead and asked, "Seventh Uncle, this time I came to the imperial capital, my father asked me to ask you, do you plan to go back with me or wait for Cohen to go back together during the summer vacation?"
"I'm with Cohen, and his safety needs to be guaranteed," Eller said.
"Thank you, Uncle Seven!" Serena bowed.
"The family doesn't talk to each other, Cohen is different now than it was last year, and the Mutters can't afford to lose him," Eller said.
"Seventh Grandpa praised him in front of him, am I not proud, isn't it a little ignorant?" said Lin Ke with a hippie smile.
The corners of Eller's mouth curled and then ignored him, "Hubert, Dragon Slayer Castle is not as terrifying as you imagined, but it is not the place you should go now, I think if you are given another year to cultivate hard, you can take care of it more when you go with Cohen." ”
Hubert nodded with a complicated expression, "I listen to you." ”
"You're about to break through?" said Eller abruptly to Lilith, who was standing quietly beside Cher.
Lilith bowed respectfully and nodded.
"Don't be impatient, be safe," Eller instructed.
"Seventh Grandpa, what do you think of me?" Lin Ke leaned over and asked.
"Probably before Lilith," Eller said.
"Then why don't you tell me?" said Lin Ke, puzzled.
"It's useless to tell you, you won't listen to the big brother," Eller turned and left.
Lin Ke "......"
