I can! This is Chen Xiansong's promise, and he generally doesn't dare to give people a promise casually, because it means that he will bear the corresponding responsibility. And the responsibility is not so easy to bear, he has been taught by Sister Bai since he was a child that the promises made by men must be fulfilled. Unless the other party changes first.

Most of the time in this world, you pay attention to a naked exchange of interests, regardless of gains and losses, regardless of the consequences, and deliberately yours wholeheartedly, only your own relatives are possible. Chen Xiansong wants to help the City Lord's Mansion in trouble, it is because he wants to protect his relatives, if he wants the Lalalong family to really go into the water and cooperate with them, then he must pay a sufficient price.

Chen Xiansong understands this very well, and it is precisely because he understands it too well that he is not surprised by the behavior of the old man. For the sake of profit, many people will do something unreasonable, and for the sake of the family, many people can do anything. He has lived in this era for a long time, and he now knows that although the relatives of the nobles will fight and quarrel with each other for the sake of profit, if there is an opportunity for the family to make great profits in front of them, most of them will temporarily put aside their contradictions, unite sincerely, and unite with the outside world.

The Lalong family is not strong, but there is no family in this world that is ridiculously strong as soon as it comes out, and it always needs a process of growth. The old Rommel is very old and will not live for a few years, but Chen Xiansong believes that the current Rommel has the ability to think, and as long as he lives for one more year, the Lalong family will have to take one more step forward.

"I can!" Chen Xiansong said slowly: "As long as things can be successful, I can guarantee that the Lalong family can get enough wealth and power. ”

Old Rommel smiled, and his eyes, which were too old to open, shone with a strange essence: "I can believe in the assurance of a soul-contemplative." But if this is done in your generation, it may have to be delayed until your second and third generations. So what to do? You should also know that it is not uncommon for wars between countries to be stalemate for decades. ”

What the other party said is indeed the truth, although Chen Xiansong thinks that the gunpowder weapon is very powerful, but it is not ruled out that others will find a way to deal with it. After all, in this world, there are new humans, aliens, and strange dragons. These three forces can determine the rise and fall of a country, and Chen Xiansong is against them. I feel that I am not sure of victory.

After thinking for a while, Chen Xiansong said: "I can only guarantee what happened before I died of old age, and I don't guarantee what happened after." After all, it is up to the deceased to decide what the children and grandchildren do. ”

"Can't be guaranteed?" Rommel's glittering essence. It makes him look less like an old man on the verge of death, but like a lone wolf foraging for food. There was an eerie pressure all over his body. As an old youkai who has lived for more than eighty years. As a post-human who has been released from the restrictions of thinking, based on his experience and life experience, to a certain extent, his intelligence is higher than that of Chen Xiansong.

Chen Xiansong nodded: "I don't make promises that I can't guarantee." ”

Old Rommel looked at Chen Xiansong, and his old eyes, which were already unable to open, narrowed into a thin slit: "Really can't guarantee it?" For example. How about making a will for your sons, future generations to follow this rule? ”

Chen Xiansong shook his head: "No, I can control myself." But I can't control my offspring, I don't have that much power. ”

Old Rommel glanced at Bai Min and said, "You have a sun servant by your side, she has a long life, and she will carry out your will, what do you think?" ”

Chen Xiansong still shook his head: "Xiao Min is Xiao Min, she will have her own life and will in the future, I can't force her to stay in one place and protect my descendants forever, that would not be fair to her." ”

Bai Min's expression changed slightly, but she stood behind, and Chen Xiansong didn't see it.

Old Rommel looked at Chen Xiansong thoughtfully, then at Bai Min, and then showed a knowing smile: "Okay, you have a point, if you agree to the matter, I will doubt your intentions, but you insist that you can't guarantee what is behind you, this is indeed the truth, which shows that you are indeed seriously considering your commitment." ”

"Thank you." Chen Xiansong thanked the old man.

An old man of this age can already see through many things, and can see a person's character and a person's future from small things, Rommel said: "Since Your Excellency can guarantee your commitment, then, as an ally and partner, I can't be too stingy, since Your Excellency wants to join forces with the City Lord's Mansion to do great things, then, friends are indispensable." I know some nobles from several other cities, who are not very happy with the current situation and want to go further, and I think they can join in and do their part in your great affairs. ”

"Is it credible?" Chen Xiansong said expressionlessly: "What we have to do, if we don't get it right, we will punish several clans." ”

Rommel looked at Chen Xiansong's face, as if he wanted to see all the thoughts and truths from his face: "Of course it is credible, if something really happens, Your Excellency can leave, after all, your real home is not in Black Rock City, but we are different, we grew up here, we will definitely be buried here in the future, we have to think more than Your Excellency before we do things, and we are more timid." ”

Chen Xiansong didn't think that these people were cowardly, and when they heard that someone was going to make trouble, they dared to put the whole family's head on the gambling table for the sake of profit. In this regard, Chen Xiansong claimed that he was inferior, if it weren't for the fact that he felt that things were getting more and more urgent recently, he would not have thought of helping others fight for the throne and establish his own power.

Admittedly, he could have walked away and gone back to the life of the overly living dead in the underground research institute, like that...... The two cyborgs wouldn't have a problem, but what about the others, Alice, Catherine, the little one, Ruth, and the villagers who relied on him and made him their backbone?

In the 23rd century, there are many biographies of famous people, and there are also big corrupt officials...... One of them, a big corrupt official surnamed Lai, once said something like this: I also wanted to be a good official at the beginning, but I couldn't help it, the expectations of relatives and friends, their willingness, in order to satisfy them, I came to this point step by step.

When he first read this paragraph, Chen Xiansong was very disdainful of this corrupt official. If you can't adhere to the principles, what kind of official are you doing?

Chen Xiansong didn't want to establish his own power, nor did he want to be a master, but for the sake of these people, he had to give up some of his principles, there is no absolute perfection in the world, and when he gets it, he will inevitably lose some. He could now understand the thoughts of the big corrupt official.

"Since he is a person favored by the elderly, there must be something outstanding." Chen Xiansong thought for a while and said, "But I need to see them, are they staying in the banquet now?" ”

Rommel chuckled in an old voice: "I am not at the banquet, and I am also temporary, thinking of them...... Rest assured, Your Excellency will be able to see them soon. ”

For such an 'accident', Chen Xiansong couldn't ask for it. A Hero with Seven Gangs...... If you don't have enough manpower and material resources to support it, it's really a troublesome thing. He had been struggling with how to find a suitable ally lately, and he didn't expect that Rommel Sr. would bring a few this morning.

This is a good thing, but it is also a bad thing, this move by the Lalong family will indeed increase the adequacy of Chen Xiansong's preliminary preparations, but it will definitely form a group headed by the Lalong family in the future. Chen Xiansong understands that this is the price that Rommel wants, which is a bit expensive, if one of them is not good, even if it is successful in the future, maybe he will make wedding clothes for others.

Although he was a little worried, Chen Xiansong was not worried. To put it mildly, not very kind, Rommel's current state, even Chen Xiansong knows that the other party does not have a few years to live. In addition to such an old monster, Chen Xiansong is really not afraid of anyone, even against Rommel, Chen Xiansong will not necessarily be played to death by the other party, although he feels that he may not be Rommel's opponent in terms of 'intelligence', but in terms of knowledge reserves, he is definitely several times higher than the other party, and there are two human-shaped 'libraries' at home, if they collide, he doesn't think he will lose.

The two talked in the room for a while, and after half an hour, Rommel claimed to be tired and went to rest.

Chen Xiansong returned to the banquet, and at this time, Ze Longer had already arrived at the banquet.

Chen Xiansong's ladies are so beautiful that many men keep inviting them to talk or dance. After staying with Chen Xiansong for a long time, these women no longer have any interest in ordinary men, although Anne has been at home for a short time, but in her consciousness, only Chen Xiansong is a good person, and other people have ulterior motives when they approach her.

Anne's mother had warned her from an early age that human males were creatures in heat around the clock, and although they were not very strong, they were particularly dangerous.

After Chen Xiansong returned to the banquet, few of those male nobles had the courage to pester the female dependents in the family.

Ze Long'er walked to Chen Xiansong's side, and the two walked to a secluded place, and the other nobles knew that they had something to discuss, and according to the rules of the banquet, they all avoided it far away.

"I just heard that you were recognized by Rommel as his grandson?" Zelong's face was a little gloating.

Seeing his expression, Chen Xiansong asked rhetorically, "What do you think of Rommel?" ”

"What else can you think?" Zelonger shrugged his shoulders and said, "An old fool who has lived for more than eighty years. If I want to be like him, I might as well just commit suicide by jumping off the building, it's too embarrassing. ”

"If you have this kind of thought, if you fight him in the future, you will be eaten by him to the point that there are no bones left." Chen Xiansong said coldly.

"What do you mean?"

Chen Xiansong looked around and said: "I don't know if Rommel was a soul thinker before, but I know a little bit, now he is definitely much more powerful than ordinary soul thinkers, maybe he has mastered a method that can get rid of the limitations of thinking, but he didn't tell his family, nor did he make them 'soul thinkers', I guess, this method must have strong limitations." ”

Ze Longer took a breath of cold air: "You're not joking, are you!" (To be continued......)
