Chapter 23 Controversy
As soon as the Li brothers' words fell, Zhao Gan's face finally sank, he quietly picked up the teacup in front of him, took a sip gently, and then put the teacup back in its place, while slowly raising his head, but his eyes were over the Li curtain opposite, and directly to the Li brothers beside him, the corner of his mouth smiled slightly, and said softly:
"The two virtuous nephews are already strong souls at a young age, and their strength is about to catch up with me, who is an uncle, it's really terrifying!"
Speaking of this, he shifted his gaze to Li Mu's body, the expression on his face remained unchanged, but his mouth said in a deep voice:
"It seems that there is no need to continue this cooperation......"
Li Mu chuckled in his heart, if the cooperation was interrupted at this time, wouldn't all his previous preparations be in vain?
Moreover, if the Zhao family really did the fake show at this time, really allied with the Qiu family, and then united with the Qiu family to beat themselves upside down, then the consequences would not be something the Li family could bear!
So, Li Mu took a deep breath, secretly calmed down, tilted his head slightly and scolded the two sons beside him:
"Don't be presumptuous! Hurry up and apologize to your uncle Zhao Qian and brother Zhao Han!"
The corners of the Li brothers' mouths twitched, although they felt quite reluctant in their hearts, but they also knew that the cooperative relationship between their family and the Zhao family was important, and if they gave up the cooperation here, the loss would be too serious, so they all snorted coldly, and then they apologized to Zhao Qian's father and son.
In the face of the two brothers' faces, Zhao Han snorted coldly, and tilted his head to the side while holding his arms in front of his chest, but he did not appreciate the Li brothers' apology.
At this moment, if he could, he really wanted to give up this cooperation with the Li family!
If nothing else, just the attitude of the two Li brothers!
Just now, I was puzzled and anxious because my father promised the Qiu family to limit the participants in this fund-winning battle to under 30 years old, and I was afraid that I would not be able to entertain the Li family.
But I didn't expect that in the blink of an eye, I and my father were said to be yin and yang!
It's really a bit aggrieved!
But at the same time, he had to admit that what his father said when he was on the road was not wrong at all!
In this world, there really are no constant allies, there are only common interests!
At this time, Li Mu slowly turned his head, put his gaze back on Zhao Gan's body, with a wry smile on the corner of his mouth, and hugged his fists:
"The dog is spoiled by me, and Brother Zhao also knows what kind of preparations my Li family has made for this cooperation, and now that the Qiu family has changed the rules of the battle for capital, my Li family is equivalent to sacrificing a soul realm in vain, which is really a big blow to my Li family, and I hope that Brother Zhao Haihan, don't worry about children in general!"
Zhao Qian glanced at him steadily, then shook his head, lowered his gaze slightly, and said with a slightly wry smile:
"Anyway, I'm also an uncle, and I'm not so stingy that I have to worry about two children, if I'm really careful, how can I continue to sit here now!"
Speaking of this, he paused slightly, shook his head again, and then continued:
"Besides, what the child said is not wrong, for this cooperation, the Li family really paid a lot, and my Zhao family just violated the rules of the ancestors, gave up cooperation with the Qiu family, and then ran errands and did just a show, in comparison, it does seem a little useless!"
Li Mu's heart tightened again, what Zhao Gan said was obviously the opposite, how could he not hear it?
At that moment, he hurriedly accompanied the smiling face, waved his hand and said:
"Brother Zhao doesn't need to say much, for the sake of this cooperation, what Brother Zhao has done, the younger brother knows very well in his heart!"
Speaking of this, he changed his words and said in a deep voice:
"The first priority should be to discuss what to do next?"
Zhao Qian raised his eyebrows, as if he subconsciously glanced at Li Mu, then pondered for a moment and said:
"The rules have been set, there is absolutely no room for maneuver, and now we can only re-select the candidates!"
Li Mu's face sank, his eyes looked at the teacup on the table with empty eyes, and his fingers subconsciously knocked on the table, saying:
"Re-select the participants...... Moreover, according to the meaning of the Qiu family, for this battle of seizing funds, anyone under the age of thirty can participate in the Awakening Soul Realm, which means that if you want to win the final victory, you will have to face the wheel battle!"
Speaking of this, the corners of his eyebrows twitched, and he suddenly looked at Zhao Gan, and said in surprise:
"Could it be that the Qiu family doesn't have enough confidence in the sword soul?"
Speaking of this, Zhao Gan's expression suddenly froze, he glanced at Li Mu opposite with complicated eyes, shook his head and said:
"Everyone is not stupid, in the face of the top resource like Streamer Iron Ore, which everyone wants to get a piece of, the Qiu family naturally has to do everything possible to ensure that nothing goes wrong!"
A hint of embarrassment flashed on Li Mu's face in an instant, and he knew very well in his heart that he had regarded the people of the Qiu family as fools from the beginning, thinking that the plan was seamless, so he had made preparations early.
As a result, the Qiu family only made a small change to the age of the participants, and directly let themselves lose a Soul Realm in vain!
Everyone is not stupid, only they are stupid!
But now, it's useless to talk about it, so I can only try to find a way to remedy it!
Anyway, everything went according to my plan, just a little bit different!
The Qiu family is also hooked!
Thinking of this, Li Mu subconsciously touched his mustache, his eyes narrowed slightly, his face showed a touch of ruthlessness, and he said in a deep voice:
"There is no turning back when the bow is opened, since the fish has been hooked, there is no reason to loosen the rod! Even if the rod is broken, this fat fish will be dragged ashore no matter what!"
Speaking of this, he knocked his fingers on the table and shouted:
"The sword soul of the Qiu family must be destroyed, and this kind of demon is not allowed to exist in the Broken Rock Desert Village!"
Then, he looked at Zhao Qian and said in a deep voice:
"Brother Zhao, for the sake of this plan, my Li family has already lost a Soul Realm, you see, ......"
Obviously, although he said that he was "arrogant", when he really thought of the huge price to be paid for this, Li Mu still wanted the Zhao family to share it!
But his hope was destined to be disappointed, because before he finished speaking, Zhao Gan on the opposite side waved his hand to interrupt it, only to see the latter shaking his head while stretching out two fingers, and then his eyes narrowed slightly, aiming at the former, and said:
"It has been discussed at the beginning, this cooperation, my Zhao family is only responsible for two tasks, first, let the Qiu family agree that only the children of the Awakening Soul Realm are allowed to participate in this battle for capital, and second, to confuse the Qiu family by making a show!"
Speaking of this, he paused slightly, touched the teacup on the table, and then said while holding the teacup to his mouth:
"Besides, we have to cooperate with the Qiu family in the drama, and the Zhao family naturally wants the Qiu family to win the battle for capital, if my Zhao family suddenly turns against each other in the competition, then why bother, it is better to go to war with the Qiu family directly!"
After speaking, he shook his head slightly and took a sip of tea.
But Li Tu took his words and said:
"In my opinion, it's better to directly join forces to destroy his Qiu family, what kind of bullshit sword soul does he have, slap him to death with one palm, and it's a hundred!"
Li Zhu also echoed:
"That is, after the Qiu family is destroyed, the Li family and the Zhao family in the Broken Rock Desert Village have the final say, and the streamer iron ore will still not be able to escape!"
As soon as the two of them spoke, Li Mu reprimanded in a deep voice:
"Shut up, two idiots!"
And Zhao Han sneered even more, his head was still tilted to the side, no one looked at him, and said as if talking to himself:
"Hehe, if you start a war openly, I'm afraid that you won't need the Qiu family to make a move then, and the other dozen or so families in the Broken Rock Desert Village will be enough to destroy you ten times!"
"You!"
In the face of Zhao Han's cynicism, the Li brothers were unconvinced!
"Smack!"
At this time, Li Mu slapped the table fiercely and shouted in a deep voice:
"Shut up!"
Then, he glanced at Zhao Han intentionally or unintentionally, and then said with a gloomy expression:
"Although there are few Soul Realms, there is no shortage of Soul Realms, and there are many people in my Li family who are under the age of thirty in the Soul Realm!
Speaking of this, his gaze refocused on Zhao Gan's face, and he added in a deeper and deeper voice:
"But in this way, my Li family is equivalent to sacrificing two Soul Realms, and one of them is still a potential stock under the age of thirty!
After speaking, he stared at Zhao Qian tightly.
Under Li Mu's gaze, Zhao Qian raised his eyebrows, looked at the former quietly, and motioned for him to continue.
So, Li Mu continued:
"After the matter is completed, the streamer iron ore is mined by the Zhao family, and the Li family is responsible for supervision, and the mined streamer iron ore is four or six points, the Zhao family is forty percent, and the Li family is sixty percent!"
As soon as his voice fell, without waiting for Zhao Gan to say something, Zhao Han suddenly turned his head, first glanced at Li Mu, and then looked at Zhao Qian beside him, with a hint of urgency on his face, and said in a low voice:
"Father's ......"
Zhao Qian naturally knew what his son was worried about, so he didn't look at the latter, and directly waved his hand to interrupt his words, and then the corners of his mouth curled, and he looked at Li Mu with a smile, and after a long time, he finally shook his head.
Li Mu's face became more and more ugly, he leaned forward slightly, and said in a deep voice:
"Brother Zhao has to let the little brother gain something, right?"
Zhao Gan's face remained unchanged, and he said softly:
"Destroying the peerless sword soul is not a harvest?
Li Mu said coldly:
"But for this, my Li family has to pay the price of the two Soul Realm, and take a little more streamer iron ore as compensation, isn't it too much?"
Zhao Qian did not answer immediately, but waited for a long time before he said slowly:
"The Zhao family is responsible for mining the streamer iron ore, and the Li family is responsible for supervising, there is no problem with this, but the mined streamer iron ore must be distributed according to the original plan, that is, five or five points!"
