Chapter 538: Wooing (2)
The delegation came in a hurry, and left in a hurry... It's becoming the norm. 【Reading.com】
In particular, officials who are newly attached to the Chen family often bring relatives and friends, on the one hand, to increase their knowledge, and on the other hand, to look for business opportunities. With the exception of a handful of promised families and high-ranking officials, very few of the mid-level officials who have recently joined have been given a fixed quota of aisle tonnage. All they can do is carry tens of kilograms of carry-on belongings, as required by the airport.
The Western Continent has been established for more than a year, and there are hundreds of martial arts hall trainees, and the opportunity to make huge profits is rare, often requires some luck and the trust of some natives, and a few business opportunities that need to be carefully managed, what can be obtained is also ability, but will not be disturbed, as for restaurants, hotels and other service industries, it has been warmly welcomed by the martial arts students.
The bright prospects and practical interests are enough to satisfy the majority of middle- and upper-level officials, at least to a certain extent, they are in favor of Chen Zhongguo's export-oriented economic transformation, which is actually voting for Chen Zhongguo and stabilizing the Chen faction that has just gained power.
Of course, there must be someone who is not satisfied.
Like Xie Rong and Xi Tan's father and son.
When the Xi family was not divided, through a series of operations, Xi Rong was able to push the young Xi Tan into the upper echelons of the military and become a well-known "Blue Sè Owl". After coming out of the Xi family, it is naturally impossible to get the same influence.
They helped the Chen family to attack the Cao family, in order to avoid Xi Tan's retaliation, out of their own interests rather than the interests of the Chen family, therefore, the return was relatively less skinny gain, so that Pi Rong clearly felt the decline of the old brand and the new weakness, standing in the prosperity of the West Malaysia market, his back has a kind of depression that lags behind the times.
Xi Tan, who finally came to the Western Continent, had the vigor of a young man, strong and excited: "Dad, don't be discouraged, let's set sail again in the Western Continent if we don't go well in China, you see these sailing sloops, brigs, schooners, and sails, don't you keep saying that China lacks the spirit of great navigation?" It's up to us to create a big deal in the Western Continent and go to the open sea to be pirates. ”
Although Pi Tan was forced to join the victorious Chen camp, it did not mean that he should have kept the staff position of the naval headquarters, and it was normal for him to be sent out of the same rank.
From a staff officer of the Navy Command with a bright future, to a deputy chief of staff of a certain military region who waits for death? For Xi Tan's father and son, who lack support, although they escaped the worst outcome like the Cao family, if there is no new opportunity, their lifelong ambitions will be impossible to talk about.
Xi Rong let out a long breath and sighed: "Tan'er, the Western Continent is in the hands of Chen Yi, the Age of Great Exploration, the Age of Exploration is an era of freedom." Fighters of freedom fight in the waves of the ocean. The West Continent is Chen Yi's bathtub. In order to cheer up, Xi Tan stubbornly said: "The fighter also set sail in the bathtub. As long as we can master a navy, we still have a chance to make a comeback. ”
He took his father's arm and shouted in an affirmative tone, "You see this port is so busy, but there is not a single steel ship. What does this mean? It shows that the ship on the earth cannot reach the Western Continent. If we can preside over the construction of a shipyard and a fleet, when the time comes, will Chen Yi have the ability to take it away from us? In the neo-colonial period, whoever controlled the navy was the boss. Xi Tan clenched his fist fiercely, quickly let go, and said with a smile: "Dad, we may not be able to do anything, and we will never let Chen Yi pinch our necks." Now is the best time, and by the time the fools of the navy are willing to come and can come to the Western Continent, we will have already cultivated our lineage. Xi Rong smiled vainly and didn't respond.
People from a special era have never heard of what kind of generous jīang design.
He patted Xi Tan comfortingly, and smiled: "You are worried that I am depressed, I don't." "Dad!"
"I'm thinking about things." Xi Rong paused, sighed, and said, "I'll take you to see someone." With that, he took his son by his hand, and walked out through the side of the West Malaysia Market to a small place
of the façade.
Facing the obscene vendors, they were shouting hoarsely: "Fountain pens, fountain pens, fountain pens that can write freely." The fountain pen for practicing the Chinese character is a must-have for the unified examination of the fourth-class officials of Xijiang. ”
"The canned food that supplies the Temple War, the canned food that can be eaten for a month, is locally produced, and the quantity is larger and cheaper."
Xi Rong knocked on the non-soundproof partition and said with a smile: "Lao Liu, what I want." ”
"Boss West. Hey, wait a minute. The peddler craned his neck and yelled again: "Feed,
Jinla feed, no cash, interest-free loans, and mangling pigs with a meter of fat must use Jincarat feed. ”
After yelling, the vendor wiped the sweat from his neck, pulled out a canvas bag from the secret door under the counter, and said in a low voice: "You order, be careful, pure consumer goods that have not paid taxes, cheap, they were caught, I don't admit it."
Xi Tan glanced down, it was all beer and snacks. It is worthless on Earth, but it is quite marketable in the Western Continent.
The natives of the Western Continent are willing to pay a lot of money to try rare things. The high-end slave owners and aristocrats had precious metals and jewels for exchange. These things used to be transported by Chen Yi to relieve the mental pressure of the martial arts students, but now the homesick students can just go home, the importance has decreased, the imports have decreased, and the price has naturally risen faster. Simply using the tonnage of the channel to do this kind of business is subject to heavy taxes, needless to say, the price will not be cheap.
Xi Rong checked it carefully, stuffed the golden coupon given to the vendor, pulled Xi Tan and left.
In just a few tens of meters, you can see more than 100 shops, selling all kinds of living or production materials. Xi Tan thought secretly,
If the family has a channel tonnage, even if it is only 500 tons, building a small brick factory can earn tens of millions a day.
If there is a place full of gold in the world, it can really only be the Western Continent.
I walked half a mile in a hurry, got in the car for more than 10 minutes, and the car stopped next to a gymnasium.
In the era of scarcity of building materials, luxury things like gymnasiums were either built by the diamond-shaped office or built by the martial arts hall itself. All in all, it is Chen Yijian.
Xi Tan said resistantly: "What are you doing here?" ”
"I'll show you what a knight is." Xi Rong pulled Xi Tan into the gymnasium.
"I've heard of the Magic Knights, and they all say they are powerful, but ......"
"Ben is amazing, you know what?"
Xi Tan stopped talking for a long time.
In the air of the gymnasium, four people are flying, and it looks like a two-on-two basketball game.
However, as Xi Tan thought in his heart, this was like a ball game on Krypton. A superhuman player can glide in the air for a few minutes at an altitude of thirty or fifty meters when he steps on the ground, and the speed of the pass is so fast that people can't see it, but it is in someone's hand in a blink of an eye, and in the hand of another person in a blink of an eye, or it has been passed five or six times, seven or eight times, no one can tell.
"Knock"
The basketball bounced off the ground, and the player in the red jersey bounced off the ground and smashed into the basket like a strange star.
Xi Tan covered his eyes, and had no doubt that the instant contact between the basketball and the ground would cause an explosion like a plane falling.
"4 hearts!"
Xi Tan was suddenly hugged by Xi Rong.
A gust of wind swept up from behind him, and the flying stones smashed into a mess around him.
"I'm sorry, I didn't notice people, the cap is a little out of control." A player landed quickly from the air and landed next to the two of them with a "boom".
Xi Rong hurriedly saluted and shouted: "Yinsen Leather Divine Knight, this is my son Xi Tan."
Thank you for your help. ”
"I can't watch you get smashed to death by the ball. It's okay, I also understand humanitarianism. ”
Yinsenpi thought about it for a long time before he thought of this word.
Of course, he doesn't know what humanitarianism is, but it's just a popular word for "Chinese" in the Western Continent recently.
Xi Tan looked behind him stupidly, the door of the stadium was covered and flew, and the hole with a diameter of 5 meters was equivalent to the power of a naval gun.
Yinsen hooked his hand, and the basketball bounced back with a "bang".
It is a solid rubber ball, which is fundamentally different from shells weighing hundreds of kilograms.
Xi Tan leaned over and picked him up, handing him to the Yinsen Leather Divine Knight, who was more than 2 meters tall.
The latter laughed and said, "Your Excellency Chen Yi hopes that we can control our strength, so let's practice basketball." I didn't expect tǐng to be fun. ”
"Your power control is already very good, much better than the last time I came." Xi Rong smiled complimentarily.
I just like you to talk xìn Senpi smiled and clapped his hands and shouted: "Rest for a while, who is going to repair the door?" ”
"I was the one who repaired it last time."
"It's" heavy, it's over. ”
Gimori Shige, who has the dual faith of loyalty and honesty, is extremely difficult to regret when he says good things, so he has no choice but to jump down and use his divine power to re-melt the cement.
Xi Tan looked stupid and said, "How can the cement be remelted?" ”
"It's to use divine power to shape, Yinsen has Xiangying's divine skills, we have to use divine power." Yinsenpi said disapprehantly.
Xi Rong touched his son and said with a smile: "Yinsen Leather Divine Knight, I brought chestnut cakes from my hometown this time, they are very delicious, you can taste them." ”
"Oh, great, Mr. Xi Rong's hometown food is very good. I love it. ”
"It's good if you like it, oh, and a little duck paw, Moutai, red wine and beer, which one do you like?"
"I like the bubbling kind." Ginsenpi's mouth was already stuffed with bread, and his speech was slurred.
Xi Rong opened the bag and said with a smile: "Beer, yes?" ”
"Yes, black sè."
"Bring it, Bavarian Stout." Xi Rong's canvas bag was like a robot cat's pocket, and he took out six or seven kinds of food in one go.
Xi Tan noticed that the bag was empty.
It seems that he has given Yinsen Pi a choice, but in fact, Xi Rong has already guessed Yinsen Pi's choice, and in order to be able to carry as many satisfactory gifts as possible, he doesn't know how long he has been doing his homework.
Xi Tan suddenly recalled the story when he was a child, and his eyes were a little blurry, as if his father had just retired from the recent period. I remember that my father just drank for a day and a night, slept for two days and two nights, and then regrouped and educated himself.
Of course, education does not completely change destiny. Xi Rong also needs to raise various gifts to pave the way for Xi Tan's development, just like now.
How could a mere native of the Western Continent resist Xi Rong's gift offensive.
After a while, Yinsen Pi laughed drunkenly and sang a song stupidly.
It is also common for the magic knight to sing, and a little divine power is often released along with the mood.
The father and son of the Xi family soon became dizzy.
Xi Tan didn't want his father to bow his head and beg again, so he pulled Xi Rong and asked, "Let's finish reading, should we go back?" ”
"It's not over."
"No?"
Xi Rong stiffened his face, suppressed his voice, and said, "What do you think, what have I been doing in the Western Continent these few times?" What do you think I'm doing on Earth? You remember, if the Xi family wants to change their fate, it depends on this experience. ”
Xi Tan was a little caught off guard and repeated: "How to change?" ”
Xi Rong glared at Xi Tan, stopped his words, continued to straighten his body, bent his waist to 90 degrees, arched his back in parallel, and respectfully poured wine to Yinsen Pi like a Luo pot, and Xi Tan was sad and angry when he saw it.
The dignified Xi family, although it is not prominent, does not need to pour wine like this. But think about it carefully, if you can become the youngest rear admiral, the Xi family can have today, isn't it the father 20
The year is like a day, do you give gifts to people and pour out wine?
As a result, the rats who had stiffened their wings kicked themselves and their father out!
Xi Tan gritted his teeth with hatred.
But he forgot the story of his love for the stack and ruthlessly pushing the family to the forefront of the factional struggle.
Yin Senpi, who was drinking and drinking, opened his eyes and saw Xi Rongzhi pouring another round of dark beer for himself, and couldn't help but smile in a trance: "Well, good, good wine, I like your two things the most, one is good wine, and the other is informal, not like the guys in the temple, pour a glass of wine and bathe and change clothes, then kowtow and break the bricks, and then pour the wine with dirty hands, hehe, idiot." ”
Xi Tanting's ears are about to explode.
Is this called informality?
Xi Rong had the spirit of spitting on his face, and said with a shy smile: "What Your Excellency the Divine Knight said is that in the future, I will pour you wine, and I will bathe and change clothes, but when I kowtow, I don't get my hands dirty." ”
"Look at you, I don't like kowtowing, no...... Humane ......"
"Humanitarian."
Sempi" finished, took a sip and drank a dry glass of beer.
Xi Rong poured the wine again, and said with a smile: "By the way, the last time Your Excellency chatted, we talked about faith, is it possible to hold the ceremony of the magic knight as long as there is a unified faith and 100,000 people?" "Well, that's right, but it's hard. The unified faith of 100,000 people may not necessarily have monotheistic knights. Like me, a knight of the three gods, and have the opportunity to train a god to level three,
I'm telling you, it would take a million devout people to reach that level. How many people are there in Mara City?
The Water Dragon Temple has been preparing for the Temple War for 10 years, and no such ceremony has been held. Your Excellency Chen Yi, it's not simple. ”
Drunk people mainly show off, but Xi Rong listened to the first two sentences, he turned his face, looked at Xi Tan, and said in his mouth: "Yes, it's not simple." Xi Tan looked back at his father, and his heart suddenly "thumped", like a solid rubber basketball.
It's not easy to find 100,000 people who have a unified faith, but if you hold a ceremony, you can become a knight of magic like Isamu Ginmori, even if it's a little weaker......
Xi Tan shouted in his heart: Chen Yi originally initiated it like this! The grand ceremony of the opening of Buddhism, the grand ceremony of Taoism, and the grand ceremony of Tibetan Buddhism thought that he really believed in religion, and the root was originally here.
He and his father glanced at each other, and both of them had a good face.
It's true that the Xi family is split, but it's not a slump.
They have no energy in Jiangning, but they have people in their hometown of Dongshan, as long as they organize some middle and low-level officials, what is the difficulty of doing a few religious ceremonies.
"Your Excellency the Divine Knight, I'm a little curious." Xi Rong took advantage of Yinsen's slightly drunken skin, and asked with a respectful smile: "The temple you are talking about, there must be a lot of people presiding over the ceremony." "Of course, there is nothing more important than this, once you become a knight of magic, glory is just waiting for leisure!" Yinmori's smile was about to flow out.
"Who are the people who know about rituals?" "The main priest, the deputy priest, hey, who doesn't know, those priests and small priests, are waiting for the old immortal above to give up the throne......" "That is to say, find a sacrifice, a small sacrifice is fine, and then organize 100,000 people with faith to carry out a ceremony, and you will have the opportunity to become a knight of magic?" "Pretty much."
"Almost? What else? "Ginsenpi is already asleep. He was dizzy in the car, on the plane, and on the boat, and he was a little better after choosing the magic "balance", but he was drunk and dizzy, and he was drunk and dizzy, and he was already sleepy as if he had stayed up late.
Xi Rong pushed Yinsen Pi and shouted, "Your Excellency the Divine Knight." ”
No response.
"I really fell asleep."
Xi Tan chuckled: "Great, as long as we have a few magic knights, the whole situation will be alive." "As long as you can become a magic knight, the situation will be alive." Xi Rong recalled the scene of seeing Yinsen Pi exercising a few days ago, shuddered for a moment, and said, "I always feel that things are not so simple.
Alas, we didn't dare to ask too carefully, for fear of letting Chen Yi know. He was comfortable, and it only took long for him to become a knight of magic. ”
You can't pass up a great opportunity.
Xi Tan thought of his father's contribution, gritted his teeth and said: "When I return to the earth this time, I will go to Dongshan, first find out the videos of the celebrations held by Chen Yi, find someone to analyze it, if there is no problem, just try it?" ”
"Well, find a name, I didn't do anything else, I was discovered first."
Xi Tan nodded heavily and helped Dad pack up his things.
The two of them held back their excitement, and after soaking enough time in the Western Continent, they hurried back to the village and caught up with the magic subway where the delegation returned.
Due to the semi-open nature of the passage, there were more than 3,000 people who returned, and in addition to the more than 2,000 people in the inspection group, it was the team of martial arts students to visit their relatives.
The main administration and institutions of the Western Continent were all Chen Yi's original team, and the families and even the Chen family themselves could only establish companies and abide by the laws of China.
Everyone was excited and happy, just like the Chinese people of the previous era. The father and son of the Xi family were hidden in the crowd, but they were not conspicuous at all. Xi @.
