The eyes froze this scene at the moment when the velvet curtain opened, and the light of the world that had just entered the hall had been completely covered by the grace of the three women who had just stepped into the hall door, and the originally noisy hall was silent at this moment, and both the guests and men seemed to be intimidated by the fact that the three women had the same appearance but different temperaments.

"Beautiful, so beautiful!" Wu Feng couldn't find a more suitable word to describe the three girls' beauty and beauty, any superfluous praise seemed to be a kind of blasphemy to the three girls, and the occasional voice from the depths of the throat was immediately forcibly choked by the master, at this moment, it seemed that no one wanted to destroy it.

It was the master who reacted first, and the originally steady pace became lighter at this moment, Wei Zhongxing walked quickly to the door of the hall, showing an elegant aristocratic etiquette, bowed slightly, made a gesture of please, and said loudly: "The three princesses come to the cold house, the walls are shining, please here." ”

"Uncle Wei, you are too polite. The girl who looked a little older politely replied, "It's an honor for nieces to be able to attend your New Year's dinner uncle." ”

The hall suddenly turned into a beehive again, and the buzzing discussion permeated the whole hall, and the content of the discussion naturally fell on the three girls who had just recently arrived. Wu Feng finally gathered his intoxicated mind, tried his best to calm his emotions, and smiled bitterly, it seems that the charm of a beautiful woman is indeed unrivaled, at this time, it seems that no one remembers him at all, everyone's eyes are revolving around the figure of the three women, and wherever they go, there will be a large group of noble men following behind, introducing them diligently.

"My lord, do you seem to be feeling a little emotional?" asked Ju Zhen, who was standing on the side, with a smile.

"Well, this is also a kind of happiness, what a proud feat it should be to win the favor of a beauty, but this method is too mentally retarded to think about. Wu Feng looked at the crowd of people surrounded by three girls, and said half-teasingly, but he was a little unhappy in his heart for no reason.

"My Fair Lady, a gentleman is good, human nature. "Ju Zhen is probably one of the very few male surnames who have not been confused, firstly because of his age, and secondly, he is well-educated after all, and his self-control is much stronger than ordinary people.

However, although these three princesses are in exile in Yanjing, their father pinned his hopes on them, and heard that there are rumors that who can avenge their death and are willing to marry as princesses no matter what their status. Ju Zhen continued with a smile, but his eyes glanced at Wu Feng intentionally or unintentionally.

Wu Feng immediately became vigilant, and his mind was also thinking rapidly, this Ju Zhen tried his idea again and again, could it be that he came for a purpose? While quietly smiling: "Well, the officers and men of the Southern Military Region have to work hard, with this promise, I think it will be difficult for the Maqi Khan people not to surrender!"

"Haha, my lord is so humorous, but the charm of these three girls is really powerful, even the old man is itching, if he is twenty years younger, maybe the old man will really pursue the pursuit. ”

Although he laughed out loud, Wu Feng still sensitively caught the wisp of disappointment in Ju Zhen's eyes, and Wu Feng couldn't help but wonder even more, could this old guy really have any conspiracy?

I heard that the Imperial Press and Publication Administration has ordered the collection of the original imperial administrative map and is preparing to republish the map including the Northern Luzon region, and now the two things that people in Yanjing talk about the most are the war on the southern front and the development of North Luzon, and the ordinary people are eager for the tobacco and coffee and other specialties of North Luzon to enter the empire on a large scale, so as to alleviate the inconvenience caused by the soaring prices of these two items caused by the war on the southern front. He was followed by a middle-aged man dressed in a Western Continental suit, with a large ebony pipe in his mouth, a pair of black eyes under his yellow hair, and a mustache under his hooked nose, which was clearly of Caucasian blood.

Wu Feng nodded, this person was introduced to Wei Zhongxing just now, and he is also Wei Zhongxing's best friend, Robson, the editor-in-chief of "Imperial Business Weekly", has an extraordinary influence in the imperial business world.

What Mr. Luo said is that Northern Luzon is a land of abundant products, but its economy is underdeveloped, and the road traffic infrastructure is relatively poor, so it may be difficult to achieve satisfactory results in the near future. However, Li is ready to increase efforts to the economic development and infrastructure construction of the North Luzon region, and believes that there will be great changes in the near future, and here I also hope that Mr. Luo can introduce more information about the situation of North Luzon and Northwest County through the media, and call on businessmen to invest and develop in North Luzon and Northwest China, and Li promised that they will not return empty-handed. Wu Feng replied with a smile.

"Luo should do his best, I heard that the Luo Pei people have also reconciled with Lord Li, is it really true?" Robson's eyes flashed, and he suddenly asked.

You can't say that. The Naluopi people were originally nomadic barbarians on the Tengger grassland, and the reason why they plundered everywhere was their strong military strength, but after being defeated twice by Li, their attitude was no longer as rampant as before, and the opening of the northern trade route was also beneficial to them, and they could obtain a considerable income from transit tariffs without taking the risk of failure, I think they could figure it out without us teaching, and they would naturally be calm. However, these guys are not fully civilized after all, and if they want to coexist peacefully, they must have a strong armed force to back them up, otherwise they will immediately make a comeback if they think they can make greater profits by looting. Wu Feng's mind changed sharply, and he said these words slowly, so that the other party could not find any leaks to catch, after all, befriending the sworn enemies of the empire was difficult for the vast majority of the people to accept.

When the people next to them heard Wu Feng say this, they all felt the same way, the Naluope people have lived in the border for a long time, and have always used force as the only way to solve problems, and the respect of the strong is the truth of heaven and earth in them, if you want to win their respect, only stronger than them, more domineering, this is the only law of survival in this land in today's world.

Just as the guests were talking about the war on the Southern Front and the development of Northern Luzon, the dinner finally began.

As soothing music played, the guests took their seats. This is a buffet buffet party modeled after the West Continent, the waiters dressed in the West Continent costumes shuttle through the crowd as if flowing water, serving dishes one after another, the guests are each holding knives and forks to choose their favorite dishes, the atmosphere is quite relaxed and casual, and the guests also form their own circles, while eating and talking.

This cold meal is not actually the main event, it will end quickly, and the next after-dinner cocktail party will be on time.

The spacious hall is covered with all kinds of finely embroidered cashmere carpets, and those who know the goods know at a glance that this is a Boshu craftsman from the plateau of the Central Continent, which is worth a thousand gold, and the artworks hanging on the surrounding walls are all made by everyone, and they are priceless. The well-crafted fireplaces on both sides of the hall emit a stream of heat, and it doesn't take long for even a frozen person to walk in and get back to normal. The ladies took off their fur coats one after another, revealing their slender or bloated figures, and the sound of warblers filled the room.

Wu Feng didn't have much interest in this kind of drinking party, but it was precisely these imported products from the Western Continent that made these so-called imperial high society flock to it, and it soon became popular. Wu Feng took a glass of authentic Royal Salute whiskey from the Western Continent presented by the waiter, and took a sip lightly, the alcohol stimulated his tongue and made Wu Feng feel extremely comfortable.

Well, the famous wine of this Western Continent is really not bad, no less than the "heroic blood" produced in its own territory, although the flavor is different. Wu Feng quietly sipped his wine as he walked to the corner of the hall, hoping to be quiet for a while, but soon someone followed.

"Your Excellency, you don't seem to be interested in the banquet?" followed Robson and another man.

"Oh no, I'm just a little unaccustomed to this kind of occasion. Wu Feng replied with a polite smile.

"This is Mr. Rawang, the representative of the General Chamber of Commerce of the Kingdom of India, my good friend, who, like the adults, only came to Yanjing the day before yesterday. Robson introduced with a smile.

"Oh, the kingdom of Indean, a friend from afar. Wu Feng warmly hugged each other in the way of meeting in the middle of the continent to show his closeness.

"It's a pleasure to meet you. The other party showed a mouthful of snow-white teeth, and his dark skin looked very healthy.

"My lord, Mr. Lawang has made a special trip to Yanjing to visit you. Robson's voice lowered.

"Hmm, what is there that Mr. Rawang needs to make a special trip from distant Indean to Yanjing to find me?" Wu Feng was surprised.

"This is not the place to talk, I would like to ask you to go over there and talk about it in detail. Glancing around, Lawang said in a non-standard Tang language.

Wu Feng nodded silently, and the three of them left the hall unobtrusively and went to the courtyard outside the hall. The courtyard is extremely spacious, with many cloisters running through it, forming countless secluded small gardens.

Rawang briefly explained his mission. The Indean kingdom, which turned out to be quite large in the eyes of the outside world, is now in an extremely difficult situation, the current titular king Movol III is surnamed cowardly, and his Hyderabad tribe is also in decline under his leadership, while the Yakuan tribe in the west, In the south, the Tik tribes began to grow and gradually rival the Hyderabad tribes, and Movor III gradually lost the ability to control the entire Indean tribe, while some smaller tribes began to rely on the other two large tribes to obey the orders of Movor III, as exemplified by the Punjab tribe living in northern Luzon.

Relying on the support of the Tik tribes to the west, the Punjabi continued to harass the northern Luzon border, and also developed to ignore the center of the kingdom and began to plunder the caravans of the Hyderabad tribes, and their power quickly spread northward, which caused great concern among the nobles of the Hyderabad tribes. You must know that although the Indean Kingdom is rich in products, it has a large population, and the nobles do not get much wealth from ordinary people, and the profits brought by caravan trade are their biggest source of money.

Although the Hyderabad tribes were very angry at the actions of the Punjab, they were reluctant to directly confront the backers of the Punjab, and second, the Rope people in the north also involved too much energy of the Hyderabad tribes, so even if the Punjabs controlled the important trade routes of the Hyderabad tribal caravans to the Grand Duchy of Luzon and the Duchy of Comini, they still held back, and they could still maintain their trade with the Western Regions to the east and the Hansen Alliance to the west.

But now the Punjabi tribe, with the strong support of the Tik tribe, the Punjab tribe is even more arrogant, constantly sending armed men to harass the southern part of the Hyderabad tribal settlement, and on several occasions even sending tribal troops directly into the hinterland of the Hyderabad tribe to rob caravans, which has aroused great indignation among the elders of the Hyderabad tribe.

It was at this time that the forces of Wufeng entered Northern Luzon and took control of the region, which made the nobles of the Hyderabad tribe very happy, and they immediately discussed and decided to use this opportunity to fight the power of the Punjab tribe and even the Tik tribe behind them, so Lawang's trip to Yanjing was born.
