Chapter 628: McGid's Trap

As soon as Shao Xi finished saying this, he saw Lao Wu hurriedly walk in.

As soon as he entered the door, he said to Shao Xi: "We have just come back, then King McGid got the news, and sent the carriage last time to take us into the palace, and I don't know what is the matter with us this time?" You'd better be careful, kid. ”

Shao Xi also felt a little surprised, although he expected that when he returned to Wuhai City, McJid would definitely get the news as soon as possible.

But what he didn't expect was that McJid would be so eager to see him, and it seemed that several people returned to Wuhai City safely, but the group of spies did not come back, which had already made McJid discover that something was wrong.

I don't know what the purpose of summoning them into the palace this time was? Do you want to continue to explore your own reality, or do you want to take this opportunity to take down a few people without doing anything?

Out of prudence, Shao Xi instructed Sun Lichang and Fu Biao to prepare to leave Wuhai City immediately and return to the Central Plains as soon as possible, otherwise they would have a long night and many dreams if it dragged on for a long time.

Whatever McGid wanted to do, he had to go to the palace this time.

Although Lao Wu has been muttering that this trip is afraid that it will be more auspicious, Shao Xi always felt that the fact that McJid had sent a secret agent to do something to him before was not in itself disgraceful, and he should not be so stupid as to blow himself up.

This trip to the palace should be a psychological game between the two sides, and Shao Xi does not want to give up the cooperative relationship he has established with McJid.

Now that neither side has the intention of tearing up their faces with each other, then there is still room for maneuver.

Sun Lichang and Fu Biao didn't expect the change of events to be so urgent, so Sun Lichang decided to let the caravan start preparing immediately, and the entire caravan would leave Wuhai City and return to the Central Plains early tomorrow morning.

A large number of guards will also be hired from Wuhai City's business partners to ensure the safety of this journey.

Shao Xi didn't bother to worry about these things anymore, so everything was handed over to Sun Lichang and Fu Biao, and he took Lao Wu and Wu Qiu'er into the previous carriage and rushed all the way to the palace of Wuhai Kingdom to meet King McGeid.

After Shao Xi and the others left, Sun Lichang was busy.

He knew that what Shao Xi did this time was tantamount to copying the family of the royal family of Wuhai Kingdom, this kind of thing was not trivial, if King McGeed was provoked, it would be impossible for them to be slaughtered by all the Central Plains.

Such a large treasure is enough to make people crazy, and it is not ruled out that Wuhai Kingdom will completely turn hostile to the Jingyuan Empire in the Central Plains because of this treasure, so it is necessary to return to the Central Plains as soon as possible according to Shao Xi's plan.

At the same time, Sun Lichang was also worried that Shao Xi and the others would not know what would happen when they went to the palace this time, so he asked Fu Biao if Shao Xi and the others would be in danger?

Fu Biao also shook his head helplessly, although he admired his ability as the head of the family very much, but this time he had to face the entire royal family of Wuhai Kingdom, even if he knew that there was danger, he couldn't do anything on his own.

The only thing he can do now is to follow the instructions of the head of the family and do the things handed over to him one by one, he believes that Shao Xi is not very human, and he will be able to turn the danger into a disaster and get out smoothly.

Sun Lichang saw Fu Biao's attitude, and he also understood that they couldn't help with anything now, so they could only complete the things Shao Xi explained without discount.

So Sun Lichang ordered the entire caravan to urgently pack up and leave as soon as it dawned tomorrow morning.

Now Sun Lichang also understands that his future future is also tightly tied to Shao Xi's plan this time.

As long as Shao Xi's plan can go smoothly, his future in Taihe Commercial Bank is also bright, and everything he does now is not entirely for others, but also for himself.

The treasure that Shao Xi gave him had already made him a member of this plan, so it was not only Shao Xi who took the risk in this matter, but also himself.

If this project can be successfully completed, everyone involved will benefit.

As a businessman, he understands that Shao Xi's care for him this time has risks, opportunities, and extremely high returns, and this matter can no longer be dealt with with with the usual idea of protecting the capital.

This trip can be said to be the most risky business since he started business, but it is also the most profitable business, as long as he is willing to take this risk, he will also become a well-known figure in the business world of the Central Plains in the future.

And through Shao Xi, he also knew that this matter was not only about wealth itself, but also about the interests of the royal family of the Jingyuan Dynasty.

To a certain extent, this is not just a business matter, but a major event of the dynasty, whether this matter is successful or not may even affect everyone's net worth, so there is no room for negligence.

Shao Xi deliberately pulled Sun Lichang into this matter, and he just wanted to find help from Sun Lichang, and now that he is firmly tied to this matter, he can't do his best.

When Shao Xi arrived at the Wuhai King's Palace, there was no change from the last time, the only difference was that the waiter did not lead them to the main hall of the palace, but directly led them to the garden of McJid in the backyard of the palace.

As soon as they met, McGide showed an extremely enthusiastic attitude, and after the two sides met, McGide asked Shao Xi to sit down and retreat.

smiled and asked Shao Xi: "I heard that you have not been in Wuhai City for more than a month, but have traveled abroad, I don't know how you feel about the vast desert and magnificent scenery of my Wuhai Country?" What are the special takeaways from this trip? ”

Shao Xixin said, you are here with me to pretend to be confused, right? Don't you know exactly what I'm going to do when I'm out there?

As for what I've gained, you probably know nine times out of ten, right? Is it interesting to talk to me if you have something to do here?

In fact, the two at this time are like two transparent glass bottles, and both sides face each other to see what is in each other's stomachs, but they can't say it.

To put it bluntly, it means that two people want to sit here and stare at each other and talk nonsense, but Shao Xi doesn't feel embarrassed about this matter at all, opening his eyes and talking nonsense is what he is best at.

So he happily replied to McGid: "Let His Majesty bother, and pay so much attention to the affairs of the next calendar.

"This month or so is indeed to see the magnificent desert scenery of Wuhai country, the world-famous Wuhai is worthy of being a bright gem in the desert of the Western Regions, after seeing it is really amazing.

"This is really an amazing huge treasure of Wuhai country, it is really unforgettable, I can't help myself, I can't wait to move the entire Wuhai back to the Central Plains, so that you can see such a beautiful landscape every day."

Shao Xi's yin and yang weirdness made McJid feel as disgusting as eating a fly, Shao Xi only mentioned Wuhai but never mentioned the royal treasure of Wuhai Kingdom, but the whereabouts of the treasure were revealed in and out of the words.

Even if McJid knew that Shao Xi had something to say, it was not easy to ask directly.

However, he also heard from Shao Xi's words that Shao Xi did find something in Wuhai, but people just didn't say it.

As for where is the treasure? How did you find it? How do I take it out? McGid didn't know anything.

He only learned from the news sent back by the secret agent that Shao Xi was indeed going to Wuhai on this trip, and this was also confirmed by the salt flowers stuck to the cloth strips and the news brought back by the secret agent he planted in the post house.

So it was preliminarily determined that Shao Xi and the others had indeed found what they were looking for in Wuhai.

At this time, Shao Xi publicly admitted that he went to Wuhai, but from Shao Xi's words, he seemed to hear that the other party had long known that he was tracking and monitoring them, and under this tracking and surveillance, Shao Xi still completed the search for treasure.

Now saying it to yourself is tantamount to public ridicule, but I am a dumb person who eats coptis and can't say anything.

None of the people sent out came back, and McJid also guessed that these people might have been planted in Shao Xi's hands, but he couldn't ask anything, and asking was tantamount to opening the matter.

Once you put the words on the table, there is little room for reversal.

And the fact that he wanted to use Shao Xi as an intermediary to establish a relationship with the Jingyuan Dynasty made it difficult for him to turn his face with Shao Xi at this time, after all, the treasure has not yet been settled.

If he offended Shao Xi before finding the treasure, he would be empty, and he didn't want to do the chicken and egg fight.

Therefore, before he found that treasure, he must not give up establishing a relationship with the Jingyuan Dynasty, but now the initiative to find the treasure seems to be in the hands of Shao Xi, and he is completely in a passive situation at this time.

At this time, even if he gritted his teeth with hatred in his heart, he could only greet him with a smile, and this feeling of being pinched by someone made him feel very uncomfortable.

The last time he met Shao Xi, he knew that the person in front of him was not simple, but now it seems that this person is not simple? It's just too hard to deal with!

can't inquire openly, he can only use words to try, and Shao Xi is half-covered and half-exposed, which makes him really uncomfortable.

McGid smiled awkwardly and switched the way he was talking.

"I think that my Wuhai Kingdom has lasted for hundreds of years since the founding of the country, and it is even much earlier than the founding of the Jingyuan Dynasty in your Central Plains.

"I don't know how many treasures are hidden in this desert, don't you have any surprising discoveries on this trip? If so, speak up and share it with me. ”

Shao Xi saw that this old guy couldn't pretend anymore, and he almost opened his mouth to ask himself directly if he had found the treasure.

Since you can't help it, then I don't mind making another teasing to make you understand that although you are the king of Wuhai Kingdom, I am not something you can handle at will.

If you have the heart to compete with me for this treasure, then see whose means are more clever.

So Shao Xi did not directly answer McJid's question, but further led the topic to the matter of the royal treasure.

He asked casually, seemingly intentionally or unconsciously, "On the way to Wuhai Kingdom, I heard Princess Alia talk to us about the 'Tears of the Desert Goddess' and the royal treasures of your country, and I believe that what the princess said is true.

"I really wanted to try my luck on this trip, but it's a pity that it's not as easy as I imagined.

"I wonder if His Majesty will really give all the other treasures to the person who found the treasure, as the princess said, as soon as he received the 'Tears of the Desert Goddess'?"

Shao Xi's question is like a chess game in which he "calls death" and takes the opponent's army by the way.

Although he knows that it is impossible to checkmate the other party, he wants to force you to deal with it, intentionally or unintentionally, in order not to drive you to a dead end, but simply to disgust you.

Faced with this question directly raised by Shao Xi in person, McJid had to answer, and he must not answer wrong, because as long as he answered incorrectly, this seemingly unintentional "general" would become a dead move.

"Lord Shao has said it all, you don't doubt what Alia said, what she said is equivalent to what I said, so what Lord Shao heard is not wrong.

"This is indeed a promise I made many years ago, that if anyone can retrieve the 'Tears of the Desert Goddess' for me, then the treasure that exists with it will be publicly given to those who find it, and I will never break my promise.

"But only if the treasure seeker will take the initiative to put the 'Tears of the Desert Goddess' into my hands, if he wants to keep such a thing for himself, how can I fulfill my promise?"

Shao Xi listened to McJid's words, and couldn't help but laugh secretly in his heart, you old fox is really treacherous and cunning, and you can't talk at both ends.

On the one hand, he does not deny the promise he made back then, and he must first maintain his integrity and promise.

Then use this "Tears of the Desert Goddess" as an introduction, and want to seduce yourself to take the initiative to talk about finding the treasure.

To put it bluntly, he will only fulfill his promise by handing the "Tears of the Desert Goddess" in front of him.

But when he handed him the "Tears of the Desert Goddess", it was tantamount to telling him that the treasure had been found, so it was impossible to hide where he found it, how he found it, and how he took it out.

It is equivalent to letting him grasp the information of this treasure exactly, so there are many means to seize this treasure next.

Naturally, the person who found the treasure did not want to make this matter public, and since the news was sealed, it was naturally unknown what McJid did to the person who found the treasure.

The only option for those who found the treasure to ensure that it was not taken away by McGid was to make the information public.

But if the news of such a big treasure is made public, he will become the target of public criticism, not to mention eating and sleeping, I am afraid that it is an extremely dangerous thing to blink his eyes.

That's one of McGid's traps.

McJid, the old fellow, has really pinched the weakness of human nature, and whether the person who finds the treasure will give him the "Tears of the Desert Goddess" or not, the treasure will eventually fall back into his hands in various forms.

It's just that he didn't expect to meet someone like Shao Xi, Shao Xi never played cards according to common sense, and wanted to use this way to hold Shao Xi, McJid still thought too simply.

So what means will Shao Xi use to deal with McJid's routine?
