Chapter 323: Negotiating the Inside Story

PS: Bow down and thank the book friend "jht121" for the tip~!

in high-end shops.

"Sir, do you think I look good in this? And this?"

"It's all good-looking!" lowered his voice, "Hehe, but I prefer you to wear nothing, haha......"

"Sir ......" dragged out his tone, and said dissatisfiedly, "What, it's not sincere at all." ”

"Oh......? If you like it, you don't have to save me money!haha, things in small places are cheap. ”

Slightly vulgar and arrogant words, although unelegant, are undeniably able to bring supreme vanity to some women.

The waiter on the side was naturally even more excited, his face flushed, and he kept saying all kinds of seductive words, selling one high-priced dress after another to the woman next to the "local tyrant".

Not far from a few people, there was also a pair of aristocratic men and women who had come in with them who were choosing clothes. However, the man did not show the temperament of a companion nouveau riche, but smiled and gave professional advice according to the shape and temperament of the female companion.

"This one is beautiful, sir, what do you say?"

"Well, I have a good eye, this one is really good. However, your fair skin and full curves are not suitable for wearing such flashy short skirts...... Well, this one is more suitable for you, although the neckline is a little lower, it will not look exaggerated with a string of white bead necklaces, and it can also highlight your Miaoman figure more haode. ”

"Hehe, Sir Xiexie. ”

"You can match an already gorgeous flower with the right green leaves. You know, it's my pleasure!"

"Hehe......"

I have to say that this rather handsome man is a little less wealthy. But decent words and deeds. Undoubtedly, it is also very pleasing to female companions.

It's this flower...... Don touched his nose. After making sure that he hadn't seen the wrong person before, he immediately glanced at Josia, both of them were a little surprised, shouldn't he still be a few cities away......

But since Yujian is here, of course you have to say hello. Tang En stepped forward and put his hand on the handsome young man's shoulder: "This big brother is very experienced, admire, admire." Well, can you give some advice to my girlfriend?"

"Well said. Belch...... Tang Tang Tang?" the handsome young man turned around gracefully, and then he stammered with a frightened expression.

The corners of Donn's mouth curled slightly, and he was about to say something. Unexpectedly, the handsome young man quickly glanced at Josia's face that seemed to be smiling, slightly relieved, and then looked at Josia's figure again, and was stunned, his face changed, and he rushed up to hug Don En first, and kept patting his back. Words excited: "Aha, what a coincidence." I didn't expect to run into you here...... Say, isn't this Josia?"

The latter sentence was whispered in the ear, and Tang En couldn't help but be stunned, and then reacted. Josia is true of disguise, but he is still lacking in skill. is similar to acquaintances, or people with vicious eyes, they can still see flaws.

And this handsome young man is both, not only does he look at women with vicious eyes, but he is also very familiar with Josia, and more importantly, he knows Donn's disguise skills, so it is not surprising that he can guess.

Just when Tang En was stunned for a moment, the handsome young man undoubtedly got the answer. He let go of his arm, took a step back, first beckoned to the "local tyrant" who came not far away, and then waved his hand solemnly and said, "Well, let me introduce it." This is Done, this is ......" hesitated, as if he didn't know Josia's identity, "It's Done's friend." ”

Then he pointed to the somewhat inexplicable aristocratic lady beside him, "As for this young lady......"

"Philip, what's wrong?" the majestic local tyrant came over with a few people and asked puzzledly.

After a quick look, Philip greeted him and pulled the tyrant over, "This is Sir Alex, this noble lady is his sister, well, and my sister." haha......”

A string of tongue twisters seemed to be introduced quickly and quickly, so that everyone present was a little dumbfounded.

Tang En was sober, looking at Philip who was pretending to be calm and a few traces of sweat on his sideburns, he couldn't help but slightly curl the corners of his mouth, and laughed secretly, this guy's reaction is fast, it's a pity not to act......

In fact, Philip's repeated actions are only for one purpose, that is, to clear the relationship. Philip was going to pursue Josia, and Don knew it, even most of the Grey Army garrison. After all, the things he did before, such as playing the piano under the moon and using the washing machine to be courteous, had a great impact. Now the pickle girl who has not changed her life happened to be hit by Josia, so she naturally wants to exculpate it with all her might......

Let's not talk about whether Philip's good intentions have any effect, and the next chat is even more embarrassing.

Philip Philip said very empty words in a babbling tone to support the scene, and his female companion, Miss Noble, inexplicably had an older brother and younger brother, and his mind was a little confused for a while. Tang En had no intention of breaking the siege, and was interested in the current situation. Josia didn't know if she had seen the doorway here, and watched calmly. Alex was also stunned when he had a younger sister, but his reaction was not slow, and after receiving Philip's signal, he not only took over the relationship, but also secretly emphasized it several times in the subsequent conversation. Immediately, he observed Josia with a dish-faced face without a trace, with a look of inexplicability and disbelief......

Naturally, this scene didn't last long, and just when the sweat on Philip's forehead became more and more obvious, Alex cooperated with a few hahas, and then pulled the noble sister beside Philip to say goodbye.

"Hehe, it's been a long time, let's find a place to sit and have a drink. Philip maintained a stiff smile on his face, not daring to look at Josia, and proposed to Donn.

Shrugging his shoulders, Don said nonchalantly, "Okay, it's good to have a few questions for you." ”

......

They didn't go far, and a few people found a tavern nearby. However, the tavern that can be opened in the city square is naturally not an ordinary kind, and the decoration inside is very luxurious, facing guests with status such as nobles and wealthy merchants.

With Philip in the lead, Don and Josia were not embarrassed by the waiter at the door. The three of them found a quiet place on the second floor. Ordered a few drinks and sent the waiter away.

Don was really a little confused. There was a stranger present just now, and it was inconvenient to ask. After sitting down, he immediately said, "Philip, why are you here? Could it be that the negotiators are also here?"

After coming here, Philip still didn't dare to look at Josia next to him, and he was sitting on pins and needles. Now that he heard the inquiry, he quickly took over the conversation: "No, those old guys are too slow, so Alex and I came over first." ”

I see...... Don and Josia looked at each other and nodded secretly. Based on prior information. The other party should have two days to go. If you can get this wrong, then the secret agencies are too watery.

The drinks arrived quickly, and just as we had just started talking, a waiter came over with a tray, two glasses of wine and a glass of cyan juice.

Josia picked up the juice and raised it to Philip, who was flattered at first, then quickly calmed down when he felt something was wrong, and responded with a glass of wine, and drank most of it with his head up.

Every move of the aristocracy has a standard, and so is the posture of serving wine. At this point. Philip was convinced that the woman with a vegetable in front of him was Josia. I couldn't help but feel a little apprehensive in my heart, did she doubt the situation just now......

Don: Now that they're alone with Philip. Naturally, you have to ask about negotiations. And Philip didn't know whether he wanted to make amends for his previous performance, or if he really didn't care about this, he just looked like he had to answer questions.

Through the conversation, Don and the others learned some inside stories about this negotiation.

Of course, the capital has no good impression of the Gray Army, but the current situation is really tense, and it is not appropriate to open a second battlefield at all. In addition, the new nobles saw the value of the Gray Army, and after some efforts, they finally contributed to the current negotiation situation.

Of course, it only led to the beginning of the negotiations, and no one knows what the outcome would be. However, one thing can be confirmed, there is the shili of the new aristocracy, and there is the corresponding traditional aristocracy. Naturally, it was impossible for them to sit idly by and watch the new nobles strengthen Liliang and grow stronger. The dispute of interests in this is very complicated, and even involves the imperial power, and there is a faint figure behind the eldest prince representing the traditional aristocracy and the second prince who is supported by the new aristocracy......

Just like this negotiation, if you talk about the objects of the two sides, it is naturally the gray army and the new nobles, but there are a lot of traditional nobles in the negotiation team here. On the surface, they are talking about supervision, but everyone knows that they are definitely here to wreak havoc.

This is the general environment of the negotiation, as for going deeper, such as the hole cards of the new nobles in this negotiation, Philip shook his head and said he didn't know.

As if afraid that Don and they wouldn't believe it, Philip explained again. It turns out that although Philip is a member of the new aristocratic group, and his status is not low, he is completely indifferent, which is equivalent to only occupying a name, and he came here this time for a completely private purpose, as for what purpose, of course, Don is naturally for Josia.

But then again, such a person should not be accepted regardless of the group, but his situation is a bit special. How special, Philip didn't make it clear, so he covered up the past.

After chatting for so long, although they didn't inquire about the core things, Tang En and they were already very satisfied. After all, if you don't know the complicated situation in the negotiation team of the other side, it is easy to be led into the ditch by some people with ill intentions.

"Well, look at my memory......" When the scene was a little quiet, Philip patted his head, looked at Josia for the first time, and asked with a normal face, "I don't know what this lady is called?" ”

It's finally here...... Don raised an eyebrow and looked at Philip, who was pretending to be relaxed but in fact highly focused, and raised his glass to cover the corners of his upturned mouth.

The purpose of Philip's inquiry is simple: to protect. From the previous shop to the current tavern, he pretended not to recognize Josia, no doubt to enhance the authenticity of the previous cover-up. And Philip is also very skillful in asking now, if Josia makes up a fake name at random, it basically means that there is no suspicion. On the contrary, if you tell your name directly, you may see through it......

Josia took a sip of juice and smiled, "Chloe......"

Call...... Philip exhaled lightly, picked up his glass, and smiled enthusiastically, "Oh, Miss Chloe, it's a pleasure to meet you." ”

Don lowered his head, his shoulders shrugged. Tragedy...... Philip didn't know, but Don certainly knew that Josia's full name was Chloe Josia, and the former was the family name.

Sure enough, Josia stretched out her cup and touched it, and said, "Chloe Josia, it's a pleasure to meet you." Well, it's getting late, so we'll take our leave, xiexie, your hospitality. After a pause, he looked like he had been struck by lightning magic, and said with a smile, "By the way, your 'sister' is good, let's go out shopping together when we have time." ”

The words of emphasis, everything speaks for themselves.

"Alas......" Don got up, the corners of his mouth twitched, put on a heavy complexion, and patted the stunned Philip on the shoulder, "Brother, mourn!"
