Chapter Forty-Six: A Beautiful Woman in My Arms
When I sat down again, the atmosphere was much more relaxed.
Su Mo leaned back in his chair and asked, "Although the Flying Eagle Fort is the smallest of the nine forts on the front line, it has tens of thousands of permanent cultivators, so there should be many aspiring people like you, right?"
Gu Cheng said helplessly: "I have thought about it this way, but to put it mildly, our background and experience of casual cultivation are very complicated, and people's hearts are difficult to decide, and it is easy to fall into infighting." After the establishment of the Chamber of Commerce, who will be the president? Who will have the final say? How should rights be divided? How should resources be allocated? Doing business is not about fighting and killing, it is about human feelings, and we can't listen to whoever has the biggest fist, right? If we can't work with one heart and one mind, it is easy to be provoked by others. There was once an old-timer in the Yuanying Realm, who strongly integrated six demon hunting groups and established a mountain villa in Kui Yu Mountain, but before he could gain a firm foothold, due to the arrogance of his disciples, he attracted several strong enemies, thus falling into internal chaos. Shirk responsibility and unscrupulous means, no one among the factions believes in anyone, and finally cannibalism has to be announced, and it is divided among several families. ”
Su Mo nodded, people's hearts were sluggish, which was the fundamental reason why the cultivation could not be achieved.
Gu Cheng hesitated for a moment and asked, "Childe, I don't know what the relationship between you and Commander Shi is?" After the establishment of the Chamber of Commerce, what conditions should be given? I should prepare in advance, and a group of brothers are also waiting for me, so I can give them an answer." ”
Su Mo's eyes flashed slightly, and he asked, "What conditions did you give before?"
"The Chamber of Commerce is preparing, and Commander Shi has given him a lot of convenience, and he was originally going to give him a thirty percent share. The Kang family is a local clan, controlling many mineral deposits and the output of medicinal stone resources, and business is indispensable for exchanges, and they need to hand over 20% of the share. To win over other demon hunting groups and loose cultivators to ensure the safe operation of the Chamber of Commerce, it is also necessary to take out a 10% share to deal with it. ”
"Tut, in this way, you Gu Cheng contributed and took all the risks, but in the end you could only account for forty percent of the share?"
Gu Cheng sighed: "Don't be afraid of the child's jokes, this is already the best result that can be achieved after so many years of preparation." ”
Su Mo waved his hand and said: "The original twenty percent share of the Kang family was directly transferred to Commander Shi, and as for the one percent that was taken care of other forces, it would be good to leave it to yourself." Otherwise, wouldn't it be a joke that the Chamber of Commerce that he worked so hard to create didn't even have half of the share. ”
Gu Cheng was stunned and whispered: "Can it be done?" The Kang family won't talk about it first, those demon hunting groups and loose cultivators may not dare to come to the door to provoke, but the methods used in secret are very disgusting. ”
Su Mo looked at him, "Enlarge the pattern a little, don't always keep your head down and think." ”
Gu Cheng's face was full of doubts, but he didn't understand.
Su Mo said lightly: "When Commander Shi occupies a thirty-percent share, he can probably contribute three points of strength, but when he occupies half of the share, he will make seven points of strength." In Eagle Castle, no matter whether the Commandership is strong or weak, it is the ruler in name and de jure. With his protection, do those young people still dare to commit crimes? There is a special way to ask for gifts, and how to transform the limited resources in their hands into human affection to the greatest extent is a university question. In the future, don't worry about following the Consul's Mansion, I will arrange it for you. ”
Gu Cheng hesitated slightly, then nodded heavily and said, "I understand!"
Su Mo picked up the wine glass, took a sip, and asked, "How many people are under your command?"
Gu Cheng replied: "Five hundred and sixty-three people, except for me, there are two cultivators in the three realms, forty-five people in the second realm, and the rest are all cultivators in the first realm. ”
"Are people reliable?"
"Childe rest assured, they are brothers who have fought side by side for many years, and they are absolutely reliable. ”
"Can you control them?"
"Our Feather Eagle Demon Hunter Regiment is not as loose as other Demon Hunter Regiments, and the most important rules are the same, and we have been carrying them for decades, and we still think we have some prestige. ”
Su Mo nodded and said, "One or two people, I can teach patiently, but there are too many people, so I don't bother to deal with them one by one." You listen, unreliable, make you have doubts, kick out as soon as possible. This is for your good as well as the Chamber of Commerce. Otherwise, if you cause any unnecessary trouble in the future, don't blame me for being unkind. When the time comes, I'll be ruthless, you'll be embarrassed, and I'll be upset, understand?"
Gu Cheng said solemnly: "Childe, I promise that if something goes wrong, I will clean up the portal and never let you be upset!"
"Okay, I believe you!" Su Mo smiled, then took out a Xuantie token and put it on the table, "Take this token, go to Shi Ze, explain the conditions clearly, and he will help you." ”
Gu Cheng looked down at the token and asked in a low voice, "I'll go by myself, can I do it?"
Su Mo's expression was indifferent, but his tone was unquestionable, "There's nothing that can't be done, let you go, you will go!"
Gu Cheng had no choice but to pick up the token, hold it in his hand, and secretly input a few wisps of vitality, as if he wanted to find some traces from it.
Su Mo glanced at him quietly, and said lightly: "Okay, the matter is over, head Gu should go back and rest first!"
Gu Cheng hurriedly got up and arched his hand: "I'm sorry to disturb my son, I'll retire below." ”
"Uncle Song, send Head Gu for me. ”
"Yes, Childe. ”
Not long after the two left, the brute tiger walked in, muttering in his mouth, "Childe, we are planning and setting up a bureau, and even the promotion of Commander Shi to the realm of Dongfu has been pushed back, and we have to risk offending the Kang family, and we have done so much, but only have an extra 20% share, is it too little? I see that you are also idle, it is better to open a shop in the castle that belongs entirely to us according to the original plan." ”
Su Mo said calmly: "Rashly opening a branch of Xinghai Pavilion, as long as you are a caring person, you will soon be able to find out our details, which is easy to arouse the vigilance and even hostility of local forces such as the Kang family, which is not conducive to Brother Shi's secret accumulation of strength." As for Gu Cheng's Feather Eagle Chamber of Commerce, it only needs to slowly infiltrate and firmly control the caravan and channels in our hands, accounting for a few percent of the share, is it important?"
"Childe is smart!"
"It's not clever, in the final analysis, all these calculations and plans are based on the position of Big Brother Shi. Otherwise, the Kang family alone is not something we can provoke. Su Mo took out a purple jade bottle from his arms, raised his hand and handed it to the brute tiger, and advised, "You go to the Commander's Mansion and hand over the jade box to Brother Shi." ”
"What's in there?"
"A good thing from a rich man should make Brother Shi a little more sure. ”
"Vitality... Spring water?"
"Well, although the Flying Eagle Castle is not big, the perfect cultivation of the Three Realms, in the position of commander, is still a little less interesting after all. By the way, when you go, you don't have to avoid Gu Cheng and the others. ”
The brute tiger hurriedly took the jade bottle, carefully put it into the ethereal ring, then rubbed his hands, and said with a shy face: "Childe, look at me......"
"Don't worry, I'll help you prepare your share. When you make a meritorious service in Qinglin City, I will send it to you at any time!"
"Childe is wise!"
Out of the house, Gu Cheng's footsteps gradually accelerated, and the mountains that pressed on his heart all disappeared, and he only felt that his whole body was comfortable.
Walking out of the small courtyard, Liu Yan, who was guarding not far away, immediately greeted him.
"How's it going?"
Gu Cheng took out the token, shook it in front of Liu Yan's eyes, and nodded fiercely: "Master Su agreed." ”
Liu Yan was overjoyed at first, then led Gu Cheng to a remote place, and asked in a low voice, "What conditions did Gongzi Su propose?"
"No conditions!"
"Ahh
Gu Cheng said with a smile: "Su Gongzi really didn't put forward any conditions, but just asked me to transfer the share originally given to the Kang family to Commander Shi. Maybe in his eyes, our little profit can't be compared with a favor!"
Liu Yan was silent for a moment and said, "It seems that we have all underestimated the background of this Su Gongzi. ”
Gu Cheng shook his head and said, "You may not believe it, until now, I don't even know the identity of Su Gongzi." But that kind of calmness makes people involuntarily believe in him and follow him. ”
"I don't know?! So what's the use of this token? Could it be a fake? Or just want to stabilize us and get the attention of the lungs?"
Gu Cheng was startled, and hurriedly said, "My aunt, be quiet, don't let him hear it." Don't worry, when Su Gongzi gave me the token, there was no time limit, and it couldn't be a lie to us!"
Liu Yan patted his chest and said angrily: "Then if you don't say it earlier, the people who hurt will think about it!"
Gu Cheng held Liu Yan's wrist and said in a deep voice: "There are some words, I must make it clear first, accept this token, in the position of the Chamber of Commerce, we are the people of Su Gongzi's side." This favor can't really be given in vain, and in the future, I'm afraid we won't be able to make our own decisions, and we must try to do the best we can in the things we promised him. ”
Liu Yan gently hugged Gu Cheng and said, "Okay, I'll arrange it myself tomorrow." ”
Gu Cheng breathed a sigh of relief, the reason was very simple, if Shi Liuyan was unwilling, he could only give up, then the brothers' efforts for so many years would be in vain.
"It's late at night, let's go back!"
Liu Yan raised his head and asked, "Aren't you going to the Commander's Mansion?"
"Don't worry about this moment. ”
"Well, it's okay, so as not to make Su Gongzi think that we don't trust him. ”
Gu Cheng looked down at Liu Yan, the beauty was soft, and she smiled, all of them were moved by him, and she couldn't help but feel guilty.
"Smoke. ”
"Huh?"
"I'm sorry for all these years, hard work. ”
“......”
"When the Chamber of Commerce is established, shall we officially become Taoist couples?"
“......”
Gu Cheng suddenly felt a little flustered, and his voice became more and more slight: "You...... Don't you want to?"
The shoulders of the man in his arms shrugged, he sobbed silently, and tears soaked through his clothes.
