Chapter 18 - The Lord's Past

"What's the matter, Lao Li? Looking at your expression, it's a little embarrassing? Don't worry, we don't have any money for you, and if there are any new weapons in the future, don't hide them," Batian leaned on his chair and wiped his mouth with a napkin, looking like a rich man.

Li Yuankai said bluntly, "That's not what the city lord means, the main thing is that there is a shortage of manpower, you also know that this is a top-secret technology that ordinary people can't master, so I won't tell you that I can make up to 5 pieces a day." ”

Batian frowned, and only when this new thing is kept secret can it be sold at a good price, "That's good, I don't want you to give me more than 6 percent, and you can be regarded as contributing to the defense of the city." ”

Li Yuankai thought about it and patted his thigh, "Okay, just according to what the city lord said"

"Okay, refreshed, come and drink. ”

"Since the city lord has finished eating, let's go to the conference room and talk about the next matters in detail, okay?" Li Yuankai stood up and made a gesture of please

"Okay, since Lao Li said so, let's talk about it in detail, by the way, that's the third child of your family, right? I heard that he is talented and does not lose to you, who is a father, so call him together. Deception grinned and said it seemed very natural.

Li Yuankai was also stunned for a moment, what was the situation? Asked for the third son by name? Could it be that the matter of the third son had reached the ears of the city lord? Glancing at the third son with a strange look, Li Weixuan also said with a blank face that he did not know about this matter. Li Yuankai came back to his senses and nodded: "Okay, no problem, city lord, third son, you can also come over together." ”

"Got it, Daddy. Li Weixuan deliberately showed a particularly surprised look.

"Lao Li, I heard that the third child of your family is not simple. Leaning back in his chair, he said with a smile

"City Lord, don't you know, on the day of Judgment Day, my son was inexplicably unconscious, and this coma is Zhengzheng for five years, and it has broken my heart in these five years. Li Yuankai recalled that when he was in pain before, his face showed some displeasure.

"Eh, Lao Li has been very worthwhile in the past five years, hasn't it helped a lot now. ”

Li Yuankai nodded, "Yes, it's helped me a lot now." ”

"By the way, Lao Li is dissatisfied with you and you say that I am like having a good talk with your third child, I appreciate him very much and wants to recruit him to where I am. As he spoke, he looked at Li Yuankai meaningfully.

Li Yuankai frowned, looked at Li Weixuan with a confused expression, and muttered in his heart that these three sons should not have many outstanding things outside? What's the matter with this city lord, he actually came to dig people, he rarely uses family power, and besides, these three sons must be trained to be their own successors, what if this passes?" City Lord, you also know that my eldest son was also injured because of the incident, and the second son didn't know where to run, so these three sons can penetrate the essence of my Li family. “

Seeing Li Yuankai's embarrassed face, Batian of course smiled, his purpose was very simple, "Then what Lao Li, don't think about it too much, you let me talk to the third child of your family first, okay, and see what he means." “

Since the city lord said this, Li Yuankai is not easy to refute the feelings: "Okay, you guys have a good chat, the third son, you have to talk to the city lord." As he spoke, he walked out, glaring at Li Weixuan as he walked.

The atmosphere in the whole conference room was very awkward, and it lasted for ten minutes, and the longer it passed, the more things developed in the direction that Batian wanted.

In order to break the deadlock, he poured a glass of Romanée-Conti wine and slowly put it into his mouth, "It's not easy to drink this wine now, I can only think about it before Judgment Day." ”

"Oh?" said it and regretted it, and the initiative was gone.

"It's a long story, you see I look like a hero now, but I was a bear before. "Batian's words are so clever that Li Weixuan has to admire, because in the embarrassing more than ten minutes just now, he must have known that the black shadow has something to do with Li Weixuan, and the most important thing is that the last signal flare is the Li family's special signal flare, and the last Li family member to appear there is Li Weixuan, and when Batian saw Li Weixuan for the first time, he saw something familiar in his eyes, maybe because of the girl.

"I was born in a poor family, and I didn't go to school, so I liked the heroes in the book, but it backfired, and I got tuberculosis at a young age, and it was a drug-resistant type, and poor people like us got this disease, not to mention the drug-resistant type, the torture of the virus made me mentally and physically weaker and weaker, but fortunately, there are good Samaritans in the world so that I can barely survive. Speaking of bitterness, Batian also took a sip of wine.

Li Weixuan knew that this was to be a set of words, and he asked him to take the initiative to say it, it must be with some bloody plot, but not to mention that Li Weixuan was still very curious, how did the man in front of him get to this point.

"What is it like to live in the weakest, darkest and most uncontrollable environment all the time? Even my most current food and clothing are so far away, and at that time I have forgotten what a dream is, and I have lived such a decadent life hiding in the dark, hiding in a damp corner like a reptile gnawing at rotten garbage. Until I met her," he said, subconsciously wiping the ordinary silver cross around his neck with his hand. "It was a year after the Judgment Day, and it was also when City A was first established, and at that time, I had already awakened my abilities, but that kind of sluggish and decadent atmosphere surrounded me, I couldn't extricate myself at all, so I just sank like this, the survival of mankind? What does it have to do with me? Until I met her, she was completely different from me, she was like a lotus flower in a weedy quagmire in the wasteland, showing that amazing vitality and that beautiful and gentle light. In the end, she died in my badness, all because I didn't stand up like her and face the responsibility I should have, God gave us this ability to change the fate of the people around us. After speaking, Batian drank the Romanée-Conti wine in his glass, and stared at Li Weixuan with bloodshot and tearful eyes, as if waiting for his choice.
