Chapter 721: Business
Seeing that Sun Li and the others were so happy, Qianchengxue said to the sisters with a relieved smile.
"No matter what, you are all my most important sisters, and you will not change."
When Sun Li and the other sisters heard Qianchengxue say this, everyone's eyes were a little red, and they shouted in choked voices.
"Sister Xue."
"Okay, it's okay, everything is over, the money is lost, it's best to get it back, if you can't get it back, we'll regroup."
Qianchengxue comforted Sun Li and the others
"However, we are completely out of money now, and the company still owes some loans to the bank."
Sun Li said a little depressed.
"It's okay, I'll take care of these things."
Qian Chengxue said in a relaxed tone as much as possible, not letting Sun Li and the others worry about this anymore.
"Ahem, Xue'er is right, it's really not good, isn't there still me? I'll do my best to help too. ”
Su Mo coughed and echoed with a smile.
"Okay!"
Grunt~
At this time, a very discordant voice suddenly sounded.
Sun Li and the other sisters looked very unnatural for a while, and they subconsciously covered their stomachs. I was looking for Sister Xue all over the world before, and I didn't eat lunch or dinner.
Now that I found someone, my nerves relaxed, and my stomach immediately began to protest.
Seeing this, Su Mo smiled and said, "I'm hungry, so I'll invite you to dinner, everyone has a good rub, and it can be regarded as a new beginning." ”
"Okay."
Sun Li and the others all responded with great interest.
"Say, whatever you want to eat, you're welcome."
Su Mo replied very generously, there was still a little bit of a fraction in his bank card, how could it be enough to invite everyone to eat.
"When I came, I saw a special food stall by the river over there, which is a rare thing! Why don't you go to a food stall, it's been a long time since I've eaten barbecue while drinking beer, so nostalgic! ”
Sun Li excitedly proposed.
The sisters of Tang Demon also echoed, with a very approving expression.
Su Mo also smiled when he saw that they admired that food stall so much.
No matter how stupid he is, he knows that these girls are saving money for themselves, no matter how delicious the food stalls are, can they be delicious in star-rated hotels?
"Okay, let's go to the food stalls, let's go."
......
After a while, Su Mo and the others talked and laughed, and walked along the path by the lake.
Not far ahead, there is a brightly lit area.
There is a large lake view area, with a simple restaurant and simple tables outside.
This is rare in the city, and it can be seen occasionally in the suburbs.
There are many diners eating inside, and from time to time you can hear the sound of fists, dice rolls and laughter, which is full of the smell of fireworks.
"That's it, you smell it, you can smell it from afar."
Sun Li said excitedly.
"Let's go, I'm hungry too."
Su Mo smelled the smell of barbecue wafting in the air, and he was also interested for a while, and his skills seemed to be quite good.
They walked over happily.
At this time, a middle-aged woman wearing an apron, holding a menu in her hand, greeted her with a smile on her face.
"Sit here, I want to eat something."
"Let's see what's to eat."
Sun Li and the others didn't politely take the menu and ordered.
Su Mo and Qianchengxue took their seats first, and let Sun Li and them go to Zhangluo, and they would just wait for dinner.
"What are you thinking?"
Su Mo saw Qianchengxue after taking a seat, he didn't know what he was thinking, and he looked a little distracted, so he asked her intimately.
"I'm thinking about the funding side."
Qianchengxue didn't hide it from Su Mo.
"You don't have to worry about this, I still have a batch of ore in my hand, I'll go back and dispose of it, it should be enough for you."
Su Mo reached out to hold Qianchengxue's soft hand, and comforted with a smile.
"No, you gave me enough money, but I didn't get it myself, how can I get to the point of selling things. Besides, the recent ore market is actually not very good, and if it is put for a while, it will definitely appreciate. ”
Qianchengxue shook her head, not agreeing with Su Mo's idea.
"It doesn't matter, how bad can the market be, at most, sell a little less."
Su Mo didn't care at all.
"It's much worse, because of the interception of the Blue Whale, domestic companies have been severely hit, resulting in a chain reaction that has caused the economies of various countries to malfunction, and the purchasing power has dropped significantly, and no one has bought at all. If it is sold to the merchants of Star Ring City, it will definitely suffer even more losses. You don't have to worry about the financial matters, I plan to borrow a sum of money from my father to use it for the company's turnover, and slowly re-develop. ”
Qian Chengxue told Su Mo about his plan.
Su Mo saw that Qianchengxue's attitude was so tough, so he didn't continue to insist.
At this time, Sun Li and the others also ordered the dishes and sat around one after another.
"Hey, there is open-air projection equipment here, this food stall is quite intimate."
Zhao Han found a remote control at this time and said a little strangely.
"Turn it on, we can just watch TV while eating."
Su Mo suggested to Zhao Han.
"I'll give it a try."
Zhao Han tinkered a few times, and soon the video projection popped up.
I saw a spokesman for the Federation, reporting the real-time news with a serious expression.
"Recently, the civilian ships of the major alliance countries and the Federation have been in serious friction and conflict with the civilian ships of the Imperial Army in the starry sky area outside the Star Ring City. So far, 438 civilian ships have been damaged in the conflict and 532 civilian ships are missing......"
"Orange Danger Alert for some star fields is hereby issued!"
......
Looking at the news, Su Mo said with some surprise.
"This private conflict is more serious than imagined, and it seems that we have to be cautious when we turn around and sail."
"You know, we already know. Now all the experts on the Internet are advising not to sail, going out is to find death, and now the friction is terrible. ”
Sun Li didn't look surprised.
"When I talk about this, I feel angry, and I don't understand why the federal government doesn't come forward to sanction the other party. This matter is clearly clear, the people below are all asking for war, but it is useless, I really don't understand why the council chief is so restrained. ”
Tang Demon was very incomprehensible.
"How to sanction? We didn't have much to do with them in the first place, unless we went to war directly, how can we fight? Are you done playing together? ”
Su Mo said helplessly.
"A large-scale conflict is unlikely, and now the Confederates are busy raising new supplies for the front. At this time, how to raise it. ”
Qianchengxue shook her head.
"How's the Federation's material raising?"
Hearing this, Su Mo asked curiously.
"Although it is very difficult for the Federation right now, it is still no problem to raise some supplies. It's just that I've heard that no one dares to transport to the front, and that's the most troublesome. ”
Qianchengxue told Su Mo about the current situation.
"If it were me, I wouldn't dare."
Su Mo stretched his waist and replied sparsely. On the cusp of this limelight, who dares to be the first bird.
Zhao Han picked up a case of beer, opened the bottle one by one, and placed it in front of each sister.
"Talk about what you're doing, have a drink today, and we'll work hard together tomorrow!"
"Okay!"
The sisters answered.
Soon hot barbecue and stir-fried vegetables were served, and Su Mo took a look at it.
Basically, all of them are meat dishes, there are no vegetarian dishes, Sun Li, they are really cheaper.
"You're saving me so much."
Su Mo said jokingly.
"No, it's just that we want to eat meat today."
"That's it, Su Mo, you don't even have an opinion on eating some meat, right?"
......
Many sisters asked with a smile.
At this moment, not far away, a very simple, low-key and luxurious flying car slowly drove over.
When normal people see this kind of flying car, they subconsciously ignore the past.
But Sun Li and the others had sharp eyes, and they talked in surprise.
"Look at that car, it's a domestically made bus! Don't look simple, low-key, the price of a car is more than 100,000 star coins. Which big guy drove this car here and ate food stalls? ”
"As for the fuss, some rich people are okay with this."
Su Mo glanced at it out of the corner of his eye, but he really didn't see what was good about this car.
"No, this license plate is official from the Federation."
Qianchengxue said with some surprise.
When Su Mo heard Qianchengxue say this, he was also interested for a while, so he turned his head to look over.
At that moment, the door of the speeding car opened.
I saw an energetic old man dressed in a low-key black robe and a small black domed hat on his head, walking out of the car.
Seeing the old man walking down, Su Mo and Qiancheng Xue stood up violently, their faces were shocked.
Sun Li and the others looked inexplicable.
"Sister Xue, Su Mo, what's wrong with you?"
The old man walked straight to the crowd with a kind smile on his face.
"Elder Longming."
Su Mo and Qianchengxue suppressed the shock in their hearts and greeted respectfully.
When Sun Li and the others heard this, their hearts were shocked, and they also saw the people who came clearly at this time, and they all stood up in a panic.
Speaker Long Ming raised his hand and motioned for everyone to sit down, and said kindly.
"Don't be inhibited, just sit down."
Sun Li and the others looked at Qianchengxue and Su Mo one after another, how dare they sit down.
Seeing that everyone didn't dare to sit down, the head of the Long Ming Council just smiled and didn't say anything, he said to Qianchengxue: "I'm here to find Su Mo, I don't know if I can lend him to me for a while." ”
"Yes."
Qianchengxue hurriedly replied.
"Thank you, Su Mo will take a walk with me with this old bone."
Long Ming is like an old man in the neighborhood, very easy-going, without a trace of arrogance.
"Good!"
Su Mo immediately followed Long Ming and left.
After Long Ming and Su Mo walked away, Sun Li and the others also screamed.
"Oh my God, I saw the Governor!"
"Yes! Real people! ”
"Su Mo is so powerful, he can even let the council leader come to him."
"That's right!"
......
At this time, Qianchengxue was the only one, frowning and not saying a word.
Not long after, Su Mo and Long Ming walked along the edge of the lake towards the empty area in the distance, gradually moving away from the hustle and bustle.
A little starlight shone on the two of them, and a truly warm breeze blew by.
Su Mo quietly accompanied Long Ming and did not speak.
Long Ming chuckled to break the silence and said to Su Mo, "Has everything been going wrong recently?" ”
"Well, it's okay, Elder Longming, have you heard something?"
Su Mo said a little embarrassed.
"How could I not have heard of the uproar of the matter, such a large sum of money was transferred away, can I not know? Originally, I thought I would see if I could help you with this matter, but the money went to the bank in Star Ring City, and I couldn't do anything about it. You also know the nature of the bank in the City of Rings, but we had to connect it. ”
Long Ming said this with a smile.
"Ahem."
Su Mo was also a little embarrassed, he didn't expect this matter to stab Long Ming.
"I told you at the beginning, without power, many things will go a lot of trouble, after all, the big ghost is better than the small ghost."
"Haha, in fact, it's nothing, life is alive, how can everything go well, there will always be setbacks. If you don't go through thousands of hardships, how can you achieve a perfect life? ”
Su Mo replied very freely.
"That's the way it is, but who likes to be frustrated, give you a heads-up."
Long Ming looked at Su Mo with a smile.
"Speak, Chief."
Su Mo immediately listened respectfully.
"In the headquarters of the Federal Black and White Agency, there is a super central device that records all kinds of information, you can go there and have a look, maybe it will help you."
Long Ming reminded Su Mo lightly.
"Hey~ Actually, I'm more afraid of trouble."
Su Mo really didn't want to be too involved with the military department, for fear that he would not be able to give up when the time came.
"Don't bother, use the badge I gave you, it's like going to your own house."
"Is it so easy to use? Well, I see. ”
Su Mo saw that Long Ming said this, so he could only accept this love.
"It's good to understand."
Long Ming looked at Su Mo with a smile.
Su Mo also looked at Long Ming with a smile at this time, and asked jokingly: "Elder Council, did you come to the lake to look for me this big night, did you also encounter something unpleasant." ”
When Long Ming heard Su Mo's words, he immediately laughed.
"Haha, you kid is getting more and more clever, and he can't hide anything from you."
Su Mo complained in his heart, no matter how stupid he was, he knew how busy Long Ming was, how could he be free, just for the matter of losing money, he came to find himself, at most it would be good to make a phone call.
"Su Mo, I won't go around in circles with you anymore, have you heard about the Blue Whale?"
Long Ming looked at the sparkling lake in the distance and asked coldly.
"I've heard more than I have heard, I was on the boat at the time, and it took us a lot of effort to escape."
Su Mo said with a wry smile.
"Do you think the Imperial Army is excessive?"
Long Ming asked in a very calm tone.
Although Long Ming did not get angry, his tone was very calm. But this calm tone made Su Mo feel pressured, and he could feel that there was a deep anger hidden in it.
"It's not that it's too much to describe, it's that they don't take us seriously at all."
Su Mo thought for a few seconds and said.
Long Ming said with a little emotion: "You are right, these years of restraint have not brought them restraint, but have become more unscrupulous. In fact, I want everyone to develop well together, and no one should bully anyone, but no one is willing. You've probably heard that I'm going to abdicate at the end of the year, and I thought I would be able to hand over the federal government to the next one. It can be regarded as worthy of my efforts over the years, and I have a successful ending, but I didn't expect that at the end, there would be such a thing. ”
Su Mo didn't speak, and fell into deep thought.
After a long time, Su Mo raised his head and looked at the head of the Long Ming Council.
"Elder Longming, is there anything I can do?"
"The Blue Whale incident, although we only condemned it on the surface, did not make any substantive counterattack. But that doesn't mean that's the end of the matter, we decided to treat others the way they would, and sent people dressed as interstellar pirates to attack the Imperial Army's supply ships, and our front line is tight, and they don't want to be happy. However, the strength of the Imperial Army is very strong after all, and the people we have prepared alone do not feel that it is safe, and we still need a strong backhand. ”
Long Ming calmly said the matter.
Su Mo became more and more silent after listening, although Long Ming did not say what he wanted him to do, but Su Mo understood as soon as he heard it, it was obvious that he was letting him participate in the attack and act as a backhand.
At this time, the voice of the Forger Devourer sounded in Su Mo's mind.
"I advise you to refuse, your own physical state, you know best."
Su Mo didn't answer the words of the Forger Devourer, but his expression became more and more silent, not knowing what he was thinking.
"Actually, I know that I shouldn't come to you, after all, I know your physical condition better than anyone else."
Long Ming said helplessly. After all, he advocates the path of peaceful development, and should not be too aggressive. But if the other party is resupplied this time, it will be a catastrophe, and in desperation, he can only make a move. But relying on their strength alone, he was not at ease, so he came to Su Mo for help.
At this time, Su Mo slowly raised his head, looked at Long Ming with a firm look in his eyes, and replied solemnly: "Elder Long Ming, you don't need to say more, thanks to your knowledge, even if I lose this life, I will participate." Not to mention that as a member of the Federation, I should have done my part! ”
Long Ming took a deep breath, his cloudy eyes revealed a hint of complexity, of course he knew that Su Mo was going to give it a go.
"I owe you a favor this time."
Su Mo shook his head and said to Long Ming: "Lord Long Ming, don't say that, I am voluntary." ”
"Okay, I'm not going to talk any other nonsense, I'll briefly tell you about the current situation, after the Imperial Army attacked the Blue Whale, it was more or less clear in their hearts that they were about to take revenge. In order to prevent their own problems, their supply transportation was not united, but was shipped by each country. Your specific target of action, I will give you information when it is approaching, and if you can, you can seize the opponent's materials as much as possible, but think about it and know that this probability is too low, so if you can't do anything, you can only destroy it. ”
Long Ming probably told Su Mo about it.
"Understood."
Su Mo nodded in agreement.
"There's one more thing I need to make clear to you."
Long Ming replied without hesitation.
"You say."
Su Mo opened his mouth and replied.
"It's about you posing as an interstellar pirate and attacking Imperial supply ships. Whether you are captured or besieged, the Federation will not recognize your identity and will not give any rescue, do you understand the seriousness of the matter? ”
Long Ming solemnly instructed, explaining the seriousness of the matter.
"Yes, but I have a request."
Su Mo replied fearlessly.
"No matter what the request, as long as I can do it, I will never be stingy."
Long Ming promised very generously.
"In this operation, I won't be with the other personnel, I'll act on my own."
Su Mo didn't hide it.
"Why?"
Long Ming was surprised.
"Since you've come to me, you don't have much faith in the others. Then I follow them, isn't it the same? I might as well do it myself, haha! ”
Su Mo replied as easily as possible.
"Okay, you can do whatever you want."
Long Ming didn't object, he still recognized Su Mo's ability very much in his heart. Since he brought it up, he naturally has his reason.
"One more thing, I hope that Council Leader Longming will help me keep this matter a secret from Qianchengxue, I don't want her to worry."
"I know this, I'm really sorry for you. But I won't say much more, I have a gift for you. ”
Long Ming stretched out his hand and patted Su Mo's shoulder and said with a smile.
"What gift?"
Su Mo was also confused.
"You'll know when you get it."
Long Ming sold it with interest.
Su Mo saw that Long Ming said this, and he was not embarrassed to break the casserole and ask in the end.
At this time, Long Ming raised his left hand, glanced at the time on the bracelet, and said to Su Mo: "It's not too early, I should go back too, everything will be left to you." ”
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw the black flying car drive by.
"Okay, Elder Longming, you go slowly."
Su Mogong sent Long Ming away.
After the black flying car left, Su Mo breathed a long sigh of relief.
The Forger Devourer said to Su Mo in a deep voice.
"Have you figured it out? Really going to war? ”
"There are some things that you can't back down from, even if they're costly. Parliament Leader Longming took care of me so much, if not for anything else, even if it was to repay him, this trip must be left. Of course, there is another reason, I am really poor, and I can't say that I don't do a vote. ”
Su Mo communicated with the Forger Owner Devourer.
"Whatever you want."
The Forger Devourer didn't say anything more.
After a while, Su Mo walked back to the food stall alone.
"Su Mo, you're back, what is the council elder looking for you?"
Qian Chengxue hurriedly got up and asked with some concern.
Su Mo looked excited, and said to Qianchengxue: "Haha, didn't the council leader hear that I lost money, and he specially came over to introduce me to a big business." I'm going to get rich! ”
Sun Li and the others' eyes lit up.
"So good?"
"What kind of business?"
......
"I can't say this, it involves confidentiality. However, the Speaker himself is absolutely very reliable, so you can wait for the good news. ”
Su Mo patted his chest and said.
"That's good."
Qianchengxue heard Su Mo say this, and her hanging heart was lowered a little,
Sun Li said excitedly: "Su Mo, you are too powerful, the council elders will personally introduce you to business." ”
"It's okay, it's average!"
"You didn't know that the sudden appearance of the council lord was going to scare us to death."
"It's good to know that I'm scared to death, don't talk nonsense about the fact that the council chief came to me."
Su Mo took the opportunity to remind.
"Rest assured, we have measure. But Su Mo, you are so good with the council leader, can you help us get an autograph next time or something. ”
The more Sun Li and the other girls talked, the more excited they became.
"This is not good, can the parliamentarian's signature be given casually? You might as well ask for my autograph, I think I had admirers back then. ”
Su Mo said with a smile.
"Cut! What do you want? Yours is worthless. ”
Sun Li and the others replied with a smile.
"You're going too far!"
......
Qian Chengxue looked at Su Mo and Sun Li and they were idle, but there was still no smile on her face.
Although Su Mo said a good thing, she always felt a little uneasy to be able to let Captain Longming run in person.
Su Mo also noticed that Qianchengxue's mood was not high at this time.
He smiled and said to Qianchengxue: "Don't worry, the business introduced by Speaker Longming is definitely a million profits." It's just a business trip for a while, and during that time, you have to take care of yourself. ”
"Su Mo, will it be dangerous?"
Qianchengxue raised her head and asked with some concern.
Su Mo said lightly: "Don't worry, it's not dangerous, it's just more cumbersome and troublesome, I'll come back when I'm done." Besides, you still don't worry about my ability, who dares to trouble me? ”
"Well, you have to be safe."
Qianchengxue nodded.
