Fengyang Building, the best restaurant in Phantom Moon City, belongs to the Tian family's industry, and earns a lot of gold and silver for the Tian family every year.

At this time, it was dinner time, and the Fengyang Building, which is usually hard to find, was unusually quiet today.

The old man of the Chen family set up a banquet in Fengyang Building and invited various families to discuss important matters. The Tian family is naturally one of them, so the Tian family prepared everything in Fengyang Tower early and waited for the people to come.

As the sky darkened, a large number of carriages gradually gathered at the entrance of Fengyang Tower.

"Huh, Lao Tiantou, why are you here to be the second shopkeeper. ”

When the head of the Bai family came to Fengyang Building, he saw the head of the Tian family standing at the door of the restaurant, and immediately laughed.

"Hmph, you're not qualified to let me go out to greet me, hurry inside, it's almost there. ”

"Unqualified" is naturally a joke, and the two families have a good relationship, because the two often quarrel.

Bai Junfang, the head of the Bai family, asked, "Are you here?"

Tian Shiyuan rolled his eyes: "Knowingly asked." ”

Bai Junfang ignored him and walked to Tian Shiyuan's side. "Then I'll wait a while, and I'll see the old man for a long time. ”

Bai Junfang is the same age as Chen Hong, and Chen Hong was a playmate when he was a child. At that time, Chen Hong was just a child of an ordinary family, and his Bai family was not a small family. But the two of them smell the same, which is really puzzling.

It's just that Chen Hong walked out of the phantom moon later, and he came to this day under the arrangement of his family. In the blink of an eye, Chen Hong had died in battle, and he had become the head of the family.

The two of them didn't have to wait long, and a short old man drove slowly in a carriage.

The carriage stopped steadily at the door of the restaurant, the curtain was opened from the inside, and an old face appeared.

Seeing this, the two hurriedly stepped forward and stretched out their hands to support the old man.

The old man was helped out of the carriage and complained to the charioteer: "You can't keep the carriage steady, the old man's waist is about to fall apart." ”

The short old man sneered: "Cut, who knows if your waist was turned by the carriage or by the two little goblins yesterday!"

"Alas, I'm really fed up with you, can't I be normal, for the old disrespectful old thing. ”

The old man was speechless and looked at the sky, Lao Tzu is at this age, so can he still toss blindly?

Tian Bai and the others, who were supporting the old man, looked at each other, they had long heard that there was a special servant beside the old man of the Chen family, and now when they saw it, it was really extraordinary!

Tian Shiyuan helped the old man to walk slowly into the restaurant, and whispered: "Everyone has arrived, just waiting for you!"

The old man smiled: "It seems that I'm late, let's leave quickly, don't let them wait." ”

Bai Junfang hurriedly answered: "How come, just let them wait, the old man doesn't need to worry." ”

"Hey, it's Xiaobai, alas, old man, this brain is not easy to use. The old man looked at Bai Jun carefully before he found out the memory of this person from his memory. "I remember that you often came to my house when you were a child, and every time you lost a fight with Hong'er, you would sue me, hehe, you looked much better at that time than now, hahaha. ”

Bai Junfang smiled embarrassedly: "When I was a child, I was not sensible, and I caused you trouble." ”

The old man smiled noncommittally: "I want you to make trouble for me now, but it's a pity that Hong'er is no longer here! ”

mentioned Chen Hong, Bai Junfang also felt a little regretful. "Definitely, I will visit the old man often in the future. ”

The old man smiled.

The three of them went up to the third floor and came to a room. The room was full of people, and when they saw the three people entering, they got up and said:

"The old man is well!"

The old man waved his hand and sat down in the main seat vacated by everyone.

The people present were also the closest to the old man in terms of grade of Hong Zhiguang, the head of the Hong family, the old man is over 90 years old this year, and Hong Zhiguang is over 70 years old this year.

Not to mention the grade, the identity of the old man alone is enough to sit on the main seat.

Ten years ago, the patriarch of the first family of the Phantom Moon, stepped down as the head of the family five years ago, and now the ancestor of the Chen family, one of the two major families of the Phantom Moon, no one present is more qualified to sit on the throne than him.

The wine and food were soon placed on the round table, and everyone pushed glasses and changed lamps, talking to each other, and there was no secret sword and sword shadow.

In their words, this is self-cultivation, which is a compulsory course for the children of a large family.

When he was full of wine and food, the old man put down his wine glass, looked around, and said, "I invited you here today because I want to discuss something with you. ”

Hong Zhiguang raised his head and asked with a little solemnity: "The old man made such a big battle, I don't know what happened?"

"It's not a big deal, I just want to buy your share of the salt mine. ”

One sentence made the people at the wine table talk a lot, and the profit of salt since ancient times was very large. The proceeds from the salt mine were a lot of money for each of their families.

Hong Zhiguang said cautiously: "Can the old man think clearly? Even if the Chen family is rich, if they want to buy all the shares, I am afraid that with the financial resources of the Chen family, it will be greatly damaged!"

"Ten grain shops, three cloth shops, plus three million taels for your share. The old man did not answer, and directly stated his conditions to Hong Zhiguang.

Hong Zhiguang thought about it for a long time, and to be honest, the price given by the old man was very high. He was able to get more than 1 million taels from the salt mine every year, and the annual profit of the grain and cloth shops given by the old man was about 1.5 million taels, slightly more than the salt mine, plus 3 million taels of silver.

It's just that I don't understand what the other party has planned, so I don't dare to agree easily. But in the end, he nodded and agreed, when he didn't have a loss, he might as well sell his favor to the other party.

The old man secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and then turned to Wu Guangyi, the head of the Wu family, and said, "Two blacksmith shops, plus a route to the south. ”

Wu Guangyi didn't hesitate for long, a route to the south was equivalent to the Chen family giving himself a business that was already secure, plus two blacksmith shops with a total value similar to that given to the Hong family.

The old man smiled when he saw this, these two are done, then the rest will be easy to do.

He took out a stack of papers from his sleeve, got up and walked slowly, sat down and handed the papers to everyone. This is the Chen family's trading items formulated according to the characteristics of each family in the past two days, and it is guaranteed to satisfy each family.

Everyone watched the content of the paper carefully, and nodded one after another, the conditions were very rich, and some earned!

The deal was completed, and everyone was happy.

So the room resounded with happy laughter.

Outside an ordinary courtyard in the east of the city, Chen Mo stepped forward and knocked on the door.

Knock, knock.

"Who?"

A hearty voice rang out from inside.

The courtyard door opened, revealing a middle-aged man in his thirties. The middle-aged man saw Chen Mo and the commander behind him, and asked suspiciously, "Who are you looking for?"

Chen Mo carefully watched a large number of middle-aged people, and said in a half-loud voice: "Zhu Li, born and backward, came to Phantom Moon City three years ago and has a five-year-old son. I'm not wrong!"

Zhu Li's puzzled gaze turned cold, staring at Chen Mo and said coldly, "Who are you, why are you investigating me?"

Chen Mo said: "I am the Lord of Phantom Moon City, Chen Mo. ”

Zhu Li was unmoved, just stared at Chen Mo coldly.

"Don't get me wrong, I don't mean it badly. Chen Mo could only explain first, for fear that the other party would do something irrational. "Your strength will naturally be noticed, I didn't deliberately investigate you, I came to invite you to join the City Lord's Mansion and join the Six Gates. ”

Zhu Li sneered: "Join the City Lord's Mansion! Hey!

Chen Mo was speechless, is he so individual? Looking at this demeanor, he should have a bad feeling towards the government, he wouldn't have committed a crime somewhere and ran to the Phantom Moon!

"I appreciate that you have secretly helped hundreds of ordinary people in the past three years, and that you have not relied on force to bully the weak. ”

Chen Mo looked at Zhu Li appreciatively, was surprised that this person was still a "good citizen who abides by the law"

"So what, I'm not going to join any bullshit Six Doors, you can go. Zhu Li said again, and was about to close the door after speaking.

Chen Mo stretched out his hand to stop it, and spoke again: "The six doors are dedicated to dealing with the people in the rivers and lakes who are traitors, and they will not be involved in other things, nor will they be bound by other things, and they will only obey my orders." ”

Zhu Li snorted coldly and said without hesitation: "Hmph! There is no good thing in being an official, if you don't go, you won't go, let go, if you don't let go, I'm welcome!"

Chen Mo was stunned, how deeply was this person hurt by being an official? Such a big resentment!

The stunned kung fu blocked the hand was pushed away by Zhu Li, and the door was closed.

It just failed? My first invitation to Corporal Lixian failed? How sad!

Among the information he asked for from his grandfather, there were only two people who met the standards in his heart, and this was the first one to touch his nose, which made him really angry!

Chen Mo, who was unwilling, knocked on the door again.

Bang, bang.

Bang, bang.

"If you don't go, you won't go, why are you so annoying. ”

The door still hadn't opened, but Zhu Li's voice came from inside.

"Dad, there are people outside, why don't you let him in? Don't you often tell me to be kind and not quarrel with others?"

Immature children's voices always make people calm, no, the door is opened again.

Zhu Li's face was ugly: "What do you want to do?"

Chen Mo shrugged: "I want you to enter the six doors and be one of the famous catches in the four directions." ”

Zhu Li said helplessly: "Don't go!"

Chen Mo: "Don't be in a hurry to refuse, you can try to be a few days first, if you are not satisfied and come back, I will not stop you." ”

Zhu Li carefully pondered for a while, then was silent for a while, and finally nodded: "Okay, I hope you are true to your word, remember, I promised you for the sake of the general's face, don't throw the general's face!"

Chen Mo stroked his forehead, and he had to rely on his dead father for a long time, this is really, really unpleasant!

"Okay, tomorrow you come to the City Lord's Mansion. ”

"Good!"

Bang!

The door is closed tightly!

Alas!

Anyway, the result is there.

Didn't someone say that the process is not important, the result is the most important!

Something seems wrong!
