Chapter 128: The Bright Moon Family
At this moment, Wang Lin and Bai Xiaojun, who were staying in the inn, waited for the first person to visit. However, this person is not from the Shangguan family, but also from the Mingyue family, one of the three major families.
"The people of the Mingyue family are looking for us?" Wang Lin and Bai Xiaojun glanced at each other, and said at the same time, "Know you?" β
"I don't know!"
"......" Wang Lin looked at the shopkeeper who came up to report, and thought for a while: "Forget it, shopkeeper, you tell the Mingyue family, and we will come down later." β
After speaking, Wang Lin closed the door and looked at Bai Xiaojun, who also looked confused: "What kind of situation is this?" Are you looking for trouble again? β
"I don't think so." It was the Immortal Heavenly Demon on Wang Lin's wrist who spoke: "I guess, there should be some hidden doorways in this Enlightenment Monument, and you and Bai Xiaojun haven't figured it out." Now that the Mingyue family is coming to you, it is very likely that they want to join forces with you. After all, you easily defeated the four guards of the Shangguan family in the inn today, and it is estimated that many people in Xiyue County already know about it. β
"Oh? Is that what happened? Wang Lin pondered for a moment, and then said, "Since this is the case, let's go down and have a look." β
A moment later, Wang Lin and Bai Xiaojun came downstairs. However, it is not the lobby on the first floor, but in the private rooms on the second floor.
In the box, a young girl in a gorgeous dress was seated. The girl also has a beaded curtain on her face, and the pearls look sparkling in series. Seeing this, Wang Lin couldn't help but tug at the corners of his mouth, he was really gorgeously dressed and useless!
And next to the girl, there was also a person dressed as a strategist, who didn't seem to be very old, with a pair of eyes, looking at Wang Lin and the two with a hint of scrutiny, which made Wang Lin a little uncomfortable. There were also seven or eight guards, all of whom seemed to be Melting Realm Perfection and Melting Realm Perfection, standing behind the two of them.
"You two may be seated." The girl bowed slightly.
After Wang Lin and Bai Xiaojun sat down, Wang Lin slowly spoke: "The people of the Mingyue family suddenly invited us to come, I don't know what the so-called thing is?" β
The girl responded: "I am one of the three major families in Xiyue County, and the representative of the Yueming family to participate in the Enlightenment Monument this time, Mingyuexi. I heard that the two of them injured the four guards of the Shangguan family at noon, right? β
Wang Lin frowned: "So, Miss Mingyuexi, was she invited by the Shangguan family?" β
Mingyuexi shook her head: "Naturally not." Just out of goodwill, I still want to inform Wang Lin Gongzi and Bai Xiaojun Gongzi that the person you injured in the morning is called Shangguan Yun. He is the second son of the Shangguan family. He is very smug on weekdays, and he is very resentful. The female guard who said that she broke your leg is called Yueying, who is Shangguan Yun's mother and the personal maid of Shangguan's family, who is now the head of the house. Therefore, this matter should be Shangguan's idea. β
Wang Lin didn't speak, just gently shook the wine glass in his hand and looked at the sake in the glass.
Seeing this, the person dressed as a strategist next to Ming Yuexi immediately frowned, and a trace of dissatisfaction flashed in his eyes.
Ming Yuexi continued: "This time, although it is a little abrupt, I still want to inform the two of you, the Shangguan family, I'm afraid they won't stop easily." β
"I won't give up easily, so what can I do?" Wang Lin raised his eyebrows, looked at Ming Yuexi and said slowly: "I hate people who talk around the bush. You obviously want to join forces with us to achieve your goal in the Enlightenment Monument, so why do you want to say anything to remind us to prevent the Shangguan family? β
"It's a bit too much for two to talk like that!" The strategist next to Ming Yuexi immediately reprimanded.
Wang Lin sneered and didn't speak, but Bai Xiaojun snorted and laughed: "Who are you?" β
"Mingyue family, the strategists beside Miss Mingyue West are unparalleled."
"Ce Wushuang? What an arrogant name. Bai Xiaojun teased:
"I mean, you haven't figured out the situation yet. First of all, in terms of status, you are the leading boss of Xiyue County, and we are the leading boss of Donglei County. β
"Secondly, since we are here this time to discuss matters related to cooperation, we should show integrity. Our Donglei County is located in the border area, and we pay attention to efficiency in everything, and we don't like to figure it out over and over again. If this is the unique cultural customs of Xiyue County, then it is better to change it in front of us. After all, to negotiate cooperation, it is equivalent to doing business, to come up with real benefits and chips, and we both confirm that there is no problem after valuation, and we are naturally happy. Instead of suddenly letting an innkeeper come to us like now, say what he wants to discuss with us, and after coming, say something that is not nutritious. β
Bai Xiaojun's words were so scareless that he was speechless.
After a while, after Ce Wushuang reacted, he immediately said, "Of course, our Mingyue family is sincere. It's you who are being rude. β
Bai Xiaojun waved his hand: "The two of you haven't talked about business." Those who have talked about business understand that you are looking for us, so the initiative is in our hands. In terms of business, we are the buyers, and you are the sellers. Even if we can't cooperate with the Mingyue family, we still have the Situ family to choose from, no matter how bad it is, we can also choose to fight with the Shangguan family. Of course, you can also choose other people who have come here to participate in the Enlightenment Monument. But since you have found us, and there is such a big battle, then I am afraid that what you are trying to do is not something that ordinary people can do, is it? β
Wang Lin on the side also smiled, although Bai Xiaojun looked naΓ―ve and cute, but in this kind of negotiation and cooperation, how to speak, how to put on a proper posture, is really exactly the same as the old man of the Bai family!
Ming Yuexi didn't seem to expect Bai Xiaojun to be so difficult. Because in the information she obtained, Bai Xiaojun seemed to be just Wang Lin's vassal all along. And according to their understanding of Wang Lin in intelligence, Wang Lin does not seem to be a person who is good at attacking hearts.
But now it seems that their intelligence has been mistaken. Wang Lin did not seem to be scheming, but Bai Xiaojun was not an easy person to deal with.
Thinking of this, Ming Yuexi bowed slightly and said, "Please forgive me, you two, we are abrupt." Well, I'll be blunt. Mingyue family, I hope that the two of you can reach a strategic cooperation with us in the Enlightenment Monument. Although we don't know the specific assessment content of the Enlightenment Monument, according to the content of each previous session, we can probably guess some. To pass the Enlightenment Monument, strictly speaking, it is not difficult. However, the real difficulty is that while passing the Enlightenment Monument, you can be qualified to participate in the examination of the five universities. β
And this kind of qualification is the scarce resource in the Enlightenment Monument. If it is said that after failing in the Enlightenment Monument, they can still return to their respective families to be cultivated as the first heir, and even join the army, etc., then getting the assessment qualifications of the five universities is the most coveted person to participate in the Enlightenment Monument. β
Wang Lin slowly knocked on the table and said, "I probably still know about the Enlightenment Monument, but as you said, the number of places that can participate in the assessment of the five universities is limited. So strictly speaking, between us and you, we are also competitors. What if we find that there are not enough places in the end for us to split the club? Because I believe that there will not be only one person in your Mingyue family to fight, as you just said, you are just a representative. β
"In addition, you shouldn't just ask me to cooperate with Bai Xiaojun. Although I have self-confidence, in this Enlightenment Monument, Xiaojun's combat power and I should be relatively strong. But among the other counties, there are not without masters. In this way, the number of places you need to get will be very large. In this way, how can Xiaojun and I guarantee that you will not cross the river and tear down the bridge. β
Wang Lin's words can be regarded as pointing directly to the center.
Ce Wushuang suddenly said dissatisfiedly: "If the quota is not enough, it is naturally Miss Mingyuexi who gets it first, but we will also give the two of them a certain amount of compensation, in short, we will not let the two of them go back empty-handed." β
Wang Lin immediately looked at Ce Wushuang with an expression that seemed to be smiling but not smiling. He couldn't help but wonder in his heart, why did this Ming Yuexi recruit such a strange person to be his strategist? Is this counselor wise and foolish? Or is it really arrogant and makes you look a little stupid?
Mingyuexin also seemed to show a hint of distress, and immediately said: "Although the words of the strategist are not very good, they ...... As the initiator of the cooperation, I really want to give priority to ensuring that my family children are protected. But I can guarantee that the other places can be obtained by two people first. β
