0074 Lunch

Early the next morning, Catherine took Cen Mu home, and an hour later, Cen Mu came out.

Refreshed and happy.

Under Catherine's negotiation, Franklin and him reached some secret agreements, and these documents on black and white will provide a certain degree of security for the relationship between the two, and his cultivation in Bounty Town has finally achieved some substantial results, and the second purpose is almost achieved.

All that's left is to execute the agreement, and as long as he helps Catherine take charge of Bounty Town, the agreement will be fulfilled: a series of food and arms purchase agreements; offensive and defensive alliance agreements; Loot distribution agreements and much more.

The three towns have the bounty town as a large trade market and mercenary platform to rely on, and the development will be smoother, while the Franklin father and daughter will have the strength to break the balance with the strong reinforcement of Cen Mu, which is a win-win situation.

Catherine talks about friendship, Franklin talks about reason, feelings plus interests, and the three of them have a high degree of unanimity, and the possibility of future disagreements is pitifully small.

It's time to go back, Cen Mu still has a stalk in his heart, forcing him to go back, Gray is still uncertain about his life and death.

At the moment before the explosion, Cen Mu saw Gray on the edge of the battlefield, his position was good, and he was also alert, and at the moment when Cen Mu avoided it, he also reacted, and when the first round of explosions was over, Cen Mu stretched out his head, and he was no longer visible.

So, there is a good chance that he has left the battlefield and returned to the town of Good Luck.

Just as Cen Mu was about to leave Bounty Town, a person he didn't expect came to the door.

It's Tuoba Peak.

"Master Cen, where are you going?" Tuoba Feng leaned against the door and greeted Cen Mu in what he thought was chic and appropriate.

"There's something going on in the town, and I'm going to leave for a few days."

"Oh." Tuoba Feng pursed his lips and asked, "Before leaving, eating a meal shouldn't affect the itinerary, right?" My dad would love to talk to you alone. ”

What does Tuoba Hong want to do? Did he perceive it?

Cen Mu said: "No problem, I'll pack my luggage and I'll be there later." ”

Tuoba Feng smiled: "It's okay, I'll wait for a while!" Go with Master Cen. ”

After a while, Cen Mu followed Tuoba Feng to the second largest base in Bounty Town, "Thunder Axe Base", this base is located in the southwest corner of Bounty Town, covering an area of nearly 1,000 square meters, and the base has built a training ground, a bomb testing room, a bar, an apartment and a canteen, which can be said to be an independent institution, and it can be seen that the treatment of Thunder Axe members is quite good.

Tuoba Feng introduced while leading the way, and greeted the people he met from time to time.

Lunch was arranged in a luxurious room, Tuoba Hong's private room, and the room was furnished in the most extravagant style, and Cen Mu even found some traces of federal luxury here.

The lunch is in a Western style, with some BLACK_TIE_PARTY shadows, but it is very unprofessional, only learning the atmosphere of luxury, but not its cultural essence, which represents a higher level of elegance and dignity in a particular era.

Cen Mu remembered that the surname "Tuoba" had a relatively ancient circulation in the old era, the earliest can be traced back to the Yellow Emperor's descendant Tuoba, the surname came from the Xianbei Tuoba Department, which should have been an ancient family with some historical accumulation, I don't know why in the new era, they lost their faith and turned to pursue Western-style culture, which makes people inevitably have a funny and regretful feeling.

"Sit." Tuoba Hong grabbed a pair of white-handed napkins in both hands and tapped his lips.

The two sat opposite each other across the long main table, and Tuoba Feng sat on either side of them.

Soon, the servant brought the staple food and placed it in front of Cen Mu.

Cen Mu put his hands on the table, did not move, and waited quietly for his next step.

Tuoba Hong snapped his fingers, and a servant took out a bottle of wine from the closet and presented it, the body of which was faintly recognizable in the light.

Tuoba Hong lifted it with one hand and said: "This bottle of wine was excavated from a doomsday base buried more than five hundred meters underground in the old era, Margaux 1978, it can be said that it has a history of four or five hundred years, and today we will taste it." ”

This guy not only doesn't understand the meaning of "Margaux 1978", but also doesn't understand the taste of wine, if he has a body that is invincible, Cen Mu wants to taste what this wine that has been sealed for more than 400 years tastes like.

Cen Mu raised his hand to stop him and said: "Eh~ Hong Lao, this is not necessary, red wine is not aged for the longer the better, generally speaking, five to ten years is the time when it tastes the most mellow, after fifteen years, it is basically impossible to drink."

Hong Lao can get such a bottle of wine with historical significance, I think it is better to continue to save it! I really don't dare to drink it, I don't have a good stomach. ”

Tuoba Hong's face turned red, a trace of anger flashed, and he said with a smile: "I didn't expect Master Cen to have some research on red wine, so let's change the bottle." ”

Seeing his eyes, the servant next to him trembled, took the wine, and stepped back carefully.

"Come, fill your stomach first, you're welcome."

The three of them began to eat, and Cen Mu also ate casually, but it made Tuoba Feng look brilliant, the reason is very simple, although Cen Mu did not deliberately perform anything, but the use of knives and forks was very casual, as natural as breathing, it was this casual and natural style that made Tuoba Feng on the side uncomfortable.

Tuoba Feng simply grabbed a steak with his hand, tore it with a big mouthful, and said with a smile: "It's still refreshing to eat like this." ”

This made Tuoba Hong frown, and it was another unpleasant place.

Cen Mu asked, "Elder Hong, do you want to talk to me about anything this time?" ”

Tuoba Hong decided to give up the way of attracting Cen Mu by showing off his "personality charm", and he said bluntly: "Master Cen still remembers that public test in the bounty arms? ”

"I remember, but I didn't know Mr. Hung at that time, only Mr. Franklin, because his head was engraved on a copper coin."

Tuoba Hong laughed and said, "Then Master Cen should have some understanding?" ”

"Enlightenment what?"

"That quiz is not a test for customers at all, but a test for you by the higher-ups of Bounty Town, doesn't Master Cen realize this?"

Cen Mu nodded, and then asked, "Are the higher-ups still satisfied with the results of the test?" ”

This is the question that Tuoba Hong is waiting for.

He put his hands on the table and said solemnly, "I'm satisfied, but Franklin doesn't seem to be very satisfied, do you know what the first sentence he spends on you?" ”

"What is it?"

"This person can't be used! These are his exact words, no matter how much we try to persuade him, even if I slam the door and leave, it will not change his decision, this is Franklin, a stubborn, rigid old man. ”

He hadn't heard the story, and Catherine hadn't told him, not because she wanted to hide anything, but because it was a thing of the past, and there was no need to turn it out.

The reason Cen Mu can probably guess, it is the same reason that he did not get a response immediately after the showdown with Franklin yesterday, Franklin was worried, and Cen Mu wanted to hear what Tuoba Hong said.

"Why?"

Tuoba Hong smiled: "Because he loves power, he is jealous, he is old, and he still occupies the top spot in Bounty Town, and the development of Bounty Town has stagnated over the years, all thanks to him, which even his ally Garfield can't look down on." ”

Cen Mu didn't comment, nodding his head while motioning for him to continue.

Tuoba Hong continued: "Master Cen, you are young and promising, and you have talents in various fields, and I personally admire you very much!

I may have a lot of shortcomings, but I have an advantage, I admire it very much, I don't suspect people when I use people, as long as I fancy a person, I will give him freedom to the greatest extent.

When Master Cen came in, he should have seen some of the facilities of the Thunder Axe base, and it can be said that fully considering the feelings of each member, the welfare of the Thunder Axe team members is very good, everyone is equal, and they share the fruits of the victory of the Thunder Axe team.

Here, I would like to provide two ways for Master Cen to consider, the first is also the one I expect the most, I hope that Master Cen can join our Thunder Axe Corps, the treatment is good, I can offer the highest salary in the Corps, and you can make more requests, as long as I can do it, I will try to meet it. ”

Tuoba Hong paused, observed Cen Mu's reaction, and found that he did not show the excitement and excitement that a young man should have, and his evaluation of him in his heart couldn't help but increase a few points.

It's very calm!

Tuoba Hong continued: "The second way, that is, we use the method of employment, but I hope that this is an exclusive employment, after Master Cen accepts our invitation, he can no longer accept other people's invitations, for this reason, I am willing to pay three times the price before to trade with Master Cen, you think about it, see how to choose?" ”

A seemingly sincere statement can only deceive the fledgling young man.

It's a pity that Cen Mu not only saw this, but didn't talk about the loopholes in his words, just said that he knew the cost of each component in this room, if the value of the facilities outside the thunder axe was 1, then the value of this room was 20.

Is this what equality is called?! It is impossible to join the Thunder Axe.

Cen Mu pretended to ponder, thought for a while, and replied: "I really want to find some strong foreign aid here when I came to Bounty Town, and Elder Hong, as the official force of Bounty Town, is undoubtedly the most ideal choice.

This cooperation is not so simple, Hong Lao may only need my personal ability, but I need more things, including: food, water, weapons, medicines, etc., this transaction may not be very equal, I don't have a better idea for the time being.

So, my idea is that I will go back to the town for the time being to deal with personal matters, and by the way, count the most urgent needs of the town, and then come to talk to you in detail, what does Elder Hong think? ”

Before Franklin's showdown, Cen Mu must not expose their intentions, so, whether he believes it or not, Cen Mu has to cover up his actions.

Because, an overlap of power is far from something that can be done by killing a few people.

Franklin didn't want to stir up a bloody storm in Bounty Town, after all, there were many innocent people among the Thunderaxe and Lone Wolves, and there were many talents they needed in the future.

Therefore, this infighting is best controlled within a certain range, and as long as the Tuobahon family and Billy's core team can accept Franklin's arrangement, leave their lives behind, and make a peaceful evolution, it is not impossible, and even Franklin is more looking forward to this way, after all, they have worked together for many years and have had some experience of living and dying together in the early days.

Franklin, then, needed an excuse to take the moral high ground in order to launch this campaign of change of power, and we could not take the initiative until the enemy had shown his fangs.

In this way, Cen Mu had to hide his relationship with Franklin, which is why he did not hesitate to accept Tuoba Hong's invitation.

Speaking of this reason, Tuoba Hong could not make any demands on him for the time being, so he could only wait for Cen Mu to come back.

Tuoba Hong asked, "Then how many days does Mr. Cen plan to go back?" ”

Cen Mu replied: "If it is fast, it will be within three days, and if it is slow, it will take a week. ”

"Good! Then I'll wait here for good news. ”
