The commotion at the door did not attract the attention of the other guests in the restaurant, but a few waiters hurriedly ran over when they saw this, nodded and led the two to the private room in the depths of the hotel.

In view of the simple and unpretentious attire of the two, they inevitably received some people's eyes and ridicule along the way, and some people's looks of disgust and disgust were overflowing, but fortunately, Li Jianguo and Huang Si were not people who cared much about other people's evaluations.

The private room is at the end of the left turn passage of the hall, the door is a round moon cave door, the door picks down two partition doors, push open the partition door, there is an octagonal small pavilion inside, the surrounding flowers and plants are pleasant, the pavilion is a delicate small square table, the water is murmuring by the pavilion, the stream stones are scattered, it is very elegant.

Huang Si cautiously glanced around the room, and after confirming that there was no danger, he immediately smiled and said, "Let's eat inside, adults, I'm a rough person, so I won't go in." ”

What's so embarrassing about that?

Li Jianguo said again and again: "Don't mind, eat together, anyway, the underworld will be reimbursed, what are you afraid of, come and come." ”

Huang Si thought for a few seconds, took a step forward, tiptoed close to Li Jianguo's ear, and secretly took out a few invoices from his pocket: "My lord, if it's convenient, how about helping me report this invoice......

Uh, this ...... Not quite right?

The two were pulling, and another junior ran over in a hurry: "Master Li, our boss asks you to go up and talk about it." ”

Li Jianguo was afraid of trouble, and he was really hungry, so he refused: "It's okay, the environment here is quite good, I won't go." Just in time, a la carte"

Xiao Er was startled, thinking that he hadn't made it clear, so he added in a low voice: "Master Li, our boss...... But Meng Po! ”

Meng Po ...... What happened to Meng Po?

Li Jianguo looked at Huang Si suspiciously.

Huang Si's eyes lit up.

"My lord, Meng Po, that's the big boss of the No. 1 consortium in the underworld! We are little people, we can't see her in our lifetime, ah, no, maybe we can see her again in our previous lives, but now we can't. My lord, big boss, even if people rub some dead skin off their hands, it will be enough for us for a few years! ”

Yes?

When did Meng Po become the richest man in Hades?

Huang Si pretended to nod his head profoundly: "My lord, haven't you heard of such a sentence?" Monopoly brings profits, and extreme monopoly brings ultimate profits. Looking at the Three Realms and beyond, there are eight wildernesses in the world, what else can be more monopolistic than Meng Po Tang? ”

Li Jianguo thought about it carefully.

Indeed, within the Three Realms, any god can be replaced, only Meng Po cannot be replaced at all!

Meng Po soup is the key props of the soul reincarnation, is a consumer goods that everyone must buy, its market is extremely sinking, and there is no competition at all, the market share is 100%, the commercial value of Meng Po soup is far more than ginseng fruit, big peach!

No wonder Cui Ling told himself just now that he wanted to help lower the price of Meng Po soup......

Li Jianguo almost instinctively became disgusted with Meng Po: What kind of profiteer would keep raising the price of such a commodity that is closely related to everyone, in order to seek a windfall profit that is enough to endanger the peace of the Three Realms?

Li Jianguo had already sketched out a dark underground empire in his mind: the evil Meng Po used Meng Po soup as the starting point, coerced the soup to order the princes, infiltrated and corrupted the bureaucrats of the underworld with high profits, and established underworld organizations all over the underworld. Perhaps, in the face of the people's criticism, Meng Po's words should be like this: Where is it expensive? It's been this price for so many years, okay, don't talk nonsense with your eyes open, it's hard for a time-honored brand! Sometimes I also look for my own reasons, whether the underworld currency has risen or not for so many years, have you seriously dreamed of it......

Although the opportunity to have dinner with the richest man was very rare, Li Jianguo still instinctively felt a little uncomfortable, in addition to the above reasons, he vaguely felt that he always resisted meeting the other party.

He struggled to remember how many years had they met, how many years had it been?

Regardless of this, since Meng Po has made an invitation, let's go!

Hopefully, the food is actually prepared.

It seems that all capitalists have a kind face, amiable and approachable, no wonder so many people want to call Daddy when they see them.

Meng Po ...... is an exception.

Her office is on the highest floor of the hotel, and the back of the office is luxuriously floor-to-ceiling glass, where she can overlook the entire Fengdu and the 10,000-year-old ancient city.

In other words, now she can see a large area of illegal buildings and dazzling spots dotted in Fengdu, just like the scum in the waste ditch, very ...... Eye-catching.

Li Jianguo and Huang Si, under the guidance of Xiao Er, boarded a viewing elevator, and as the height continued to rise, the wind and clouds outside the window seemed to be howling.

The deep darkness was like a rock approaching Li Jianguo's head. This was the first time Li Jianguo had gazed at the dome of the underworld so closely, and the sky seemed to be made up of dense grains of sand, rolling like a huge whirlpool.

Li Jianguo couldn't help but admire Meng Po's strong psychological endurance, but anyone who had a little fear of heights, dense phobia, and claustrophobia couldn't stay in this place for half a minute.

The valuable velvet carpet was spread from the elevator entrance to the mahogany door of the office, and Li Jianguo looked at Huang Si who was walking with him with great care, and he seemed to be very interested in the velvet under his feet.

Huang Si stood at the door as usual, with no intention of going in. Li Jianguo gently pushed open the door, there was no expected "squeak" heavy BGM, this door was weak and boneless, silent, and even greeted by an inexplicable fragrance, refreshing, as if plunged into the arms of the girl.

"We are rarely patronized by heavenly officials here," a girl's voice came lazily from behind the desk, like a sophisticated music box-like voice, as if ready to tell a long-ago story to the visitor: "It was my negligence to treat Lord Li inconsiderately, but why did you come to the Humble House?" ”

...... behind the desk It was a graceful and luxurious black dress, wrapped in a delicate face.

This is...... Meng Po?

Is Meng Po a young girl?

This face is incomprehensible, it is a beauty that you can't forget at a glance. The phoenix tail in the corner of her eyes is gently raised, and her gaze is as soft as water, as if you can see the ripples flowing in her eyes, but you can't tell whether the waves are calm or turbulent under the waves.

Fortunately, Meng Po invented Meng Po soup, Li Jianguo thought to himself, otherwise how many people in the world would have a girl who is haunted by her dreams.

Li Jianguo looked down and saw that it was a huge desk, on which all kinds of documents were neatly placed, and there were many books densely stacked on one side. Although the books have been opened, they look very new, and it is estimated that the owner has not read them much.

There are only two cups of tea on the table, and it seems that they are not ready to eat.

Is this a dry conversation?

Li Jianguo was a little irritable.

I was already dissatisfied with Meng Po, what about being good-looking? I'm not an evil capitalist yet, working hungry, it's a bit difficult to do.

But as long as the other side knows that he is Master Li, it should be easy to do, and my set of buffs should still be there. After chatting, Meng Po soup was reduced; If we can't talk, I'll go down to eat. Either way, it's a joy for all.

When the door closed, Li Jianguo suppressed his emotions and said to Meng Po with the attitude that he thought was neither humble nor arrogant:

"I, Li Jianguo, you, reduce the price."

Meng Po raised her eyes and glanced at Li Jianguo, lowered her head and pondered for two seconds, and then said with a shallow smile: "It turns out that the last choice of the heavenly people is you, sit down." ”

I?

Don't play according to the routine?

Wait, Meng Po does she know me?

Did you choose me...... Is there any other meaning?

Li Jianguo was surprised, and sat down with Meng Po's gaze: "You...... Seen me? ”

Meng Po's eyebrows fell again, stretched out her hand, picked up the teapot on the table, poured a cup of tea for Li Jianguo and herself, and said with a smile: "I have had a few encounters with many people, but it is just some impressions from many years ago. Drink tea. ”

Li Jianguo held the teacup in his hand, the temperature was suitable, the tea was fragrant, Li Jianguo put the teacup to his mouth and sipped, it was really good tea!

Although he doesn't know anything about tea tasting, this tea is drunk by Meng Po, so it shouldn't be bad, right?

This tea is called "The Day Returns", "Meng Po gently picked up the teapot and refilled the cup, and gently introduced: "Although the current situation is sinister and brilliant in the past, who doesn't want to be able to turn back time and win the prosperous era again?" ”

Li Jianguo was silent, pondering what Meng Po meant, do rich people like to play dumb riddles?

Feeling that Meng Po's eyes fell on him, Li Jianguo remembered that he still had something to do, this time, Li Jianguo restrained a lot, and asked with a straight face: "Lord Meng Po, about the price reduction of Meng Po soup......

"My lord, you don't have to say it," Meng Po stared at Li Jianguo's eyes and said calmly, "It's impossible. ”

Li Jianguo was not surprised, but a little embarrassed.

Is it really another miser, Grande?

Then he thought with a little resentment in his heart: Meng Pohe has been in the underworld for so long, maybe the miser is her bloodline, right? Then she can be regarded as picking the door and arriving home.

Meng Po may have seen through Li Jianguo's micro-expression of blowing his beard and staring, turned her head to face the glass window, looked at the spots in Fengdu City, and looked at the endless stream of people cruising in Fengdu, and continued:

"My lord, do you know the evolution of the financial crisis in Hades?"

Li Jianguo only knew that there was a crisis in the underworld, and he didn't know the development of the crisis, so he shook his head honestly.

So in a calm tone, he told this story about the past and the present:

"Before the inflation, there were still very few people in Fengdu, and the process for most people to come down was very simple: enter the ghost gate, take the money burned in the yang world, go to the ten halls of Yama to report, use most of the dark coins to browse the customs of the underworld, repay the debts signed by the yang world, store them in the family treasury, buy Meng Po soup with a little dark coin, and reincarnate. Except for those who are obsessed, or waiting for their families, Feng does not have too many people, and this is not so much a city as an inn, a foothold for the soul to move forward again.

"When inflation first started, it was us businessmen who first found out about it. I immediately reported this matter to the Ten Halls of Hades, hoping that they would pay attention to it, but only Bao Zheng and his group knew about the importance of this matter.

Then inflation became more and more intense, and all the people who came down rushed to get money to buy Meng Po soup and hurriedly left this place of right and wrong. Unlike the Heavenly Court, officials of all sizes are rarely worshipped in the Yang Realm, and taxes are still an important means of maintaining government spending. Now people are scrambling to leave, and the underworld coin can only buy a bowl of Meng Po soup, and there is no tax source at all. During that time, I gave all my income to Hades, and I paid for nearly half of my family, but to no avail. ”

Meng Po turned her gaze to Li Ben and continued:

"It was I who took the opportunity to raise the selling price of Meng Po soup significantly. This will ensure that people will have to work and stay in Hades to be able to scrape together the money for a bowl of Meng Po soup, and ensure that Hades has a sufficient population and sufficient tax sources. As long as the problem of inflation can be solved, then it is still too late. But the authorities of Hades ...... Indifferent. Even so, I supported the authorities of Hades to approach my income for three years, but only to slow down the inevitable progress of the matter. ”

Meng Po's eyes jumped, she didn't seem to look at Li Jianguo, but penetrated Li Jianguo's body, looking at the dark background of the underworld, like a small boat watching the expanding whirlpool on the sea:

"My lord, it may be different from what you think, as the first god of the underworld who watched Fengdu grow up, I still have feelings for the land under my feet. Bao Zheng and I, as well as many other people who care about the city, have done a lot of work. But the problem has not been solved, please tell me, what is the root of the problem? ”

Seeing that Li Jianguo didn't answer, Meng Po continued to say quietly: "The root of the problem lies in the rigid management system of the Ten Palaces of the Yama King, and also in the casual attitude of the heavenly people towards the issue of the underworld. Even if we don't dig deeper, as long as the two problems of inflation and institutional rigidity can be solved, the price of Meng Po soup will naturally fall. But compared to Master Li, I also know how difficult it is to solve these two problems, right? After so many years of old diseases, it must not be eliminated overnight, right, Lord Li? ”

Although Meng Po's words were aggrieved in every way, her expression was calm, obviously, this was sure that Li Jianguo could not solve these two things. She gently picked up the teacup, stared at the tea in her hand, opened her lips lightly, and took a small sip.

"Well, what you said is," Li Jianguo nodded approvingly, and then changed his words: "But...... I've solved both of these problems, inflation and a rigid system. ”

Meng Po's hand holding the teacup was stunned in the air for half a second, and then put the teacup down quietly.

Meng Po smiled and said: "Master Li said that it is a problem, the Hades has not solved a problem for a century, you have just arrived for two days, and you must not know much about the situation, how can it be solved?" Master Li may not be very clear about these two questions, please let me explain to you, these two questions are......"

Li Jianguo waved his hand briskly: "No, no, I know, I put forward two plans." One is to set up a central bank, and the other is to set up a rotating Hades system, and the document was prepared and implemented in these two days. ”

Meng Po stared at Li Jianguo with a smile, and immediately realized that Li Jianguo should not be telling a lie. She retracted her smile, pulled out an old-fashioned phone from a drawer, and whispered something into the microphone.

A few minutes later, there was a knock on the office door, and a person was respectfully placing a thick pile of materials on Meng Po's desk. Meng Po picked up the documents and carefully read them from beginning to end.

Meng Po browsed very quickly, and when she looked up at Li Jianguo again, although her eyes were still not shocked, her pupils also revealed a flickering light.

Meng Po poured Li Jianguo a cup of tea again, and humbly delivered the tea to Li Jianguo with both hands: "Please allow me to introduce myself again, I am Meng Po, and it is a pleasure to meet you, Master Li." ”

Li Jianguo was flattered and took Meng Po's tea, and Meng Po continued to say gently: "Lord Li is really extraordinary, it is not yet a day, and he has put forward such a shocking and practical plan. ”

Li Jianguo smiled: "It's not enough to worry about." Just now you said that if these two can be solved, you will reduce the price, right? ”

Meng Po did not prevaricate and hesitate as Li Jianguo expected, but said calmly: "Of course, we will also immediately start to formulate a price reduction plan, and the two systems of the underworld will be issued together." ”

Li Jianguo took a sip of tea and nodded.

This negotiation...... It's not that hard!
