Chapter 58 Don’t talk, feel it with your heart, you know!

Deep in the bathing center, Hua Duxiu and Peng Yaoyao were taking a leisurely bath, while in the private room in the front hall, Shen Lijia, Zhao Shentian, and Boss Qi were arguing uncompromisingly.

After Hua Duxiu and Peng Yaoyao left, Shen Lijia was not weak, but even more arrogant.

"Boss Qi, my brother-in-law made it very clear that we don't need to discuss the share issue anymore!"

Boss Qi said angrily , " Okay, the share is just like this, but the money you invested in the shares is too little, right? Ten thousand taels, why don't you go and grab it? My bath center covers an area of 180 acres, and the land alone is How much is it worth?”

Shen Lijia said , " Boss Qi, you can't settle the account like this. I will give you these ten thousand taels immediately to divide. Then the funds for the follow-up renovation will continue to come in. From now on, the customers in heaven and earth will Explosive growth, and the consumption per customer will also increase significantly, and accordingly, our profits will also increase significantly!”

"If you think about it this way, you are a perfect match! Not only did you share 10,000 taels of silver from my Shen family out of thin air, but your monthly profits from now on will not only be considerable, but may even increase!"

Boss Qi said , " What you said is good, but it's a pity that I originally held 30% of the shares, and now it's down to 10%. What's my loss? To be honest, this is a loss no matter how you calculate it!"

Shen Lijia waved his hand , " What's 130%? You lose 20% of the shares, but you have the Governor's Mansion as your backer. Isn't this better than anything else? Besides, after the renovation here, the industrial value will also increase significantly, and you will lose 20% of the shares. , converted into money, it may not be much less.”

"Even if we all break up in the future and even the land and the house are sold, you won't lose money! Not to mention the extra profits you've made over the years."

Shen Lijia and Boss Qi argued with each other, while Zhao Shentian remained silent with a straight face.

He holds 30% of the hidden stocks here.

You don’t have to do anything, just collect 30% of the profit every month, it’s not too fun at all.

What? Something's wrong?

If you have something to do, just arrange for Capt. Zhao to bring Capt. Xing's agents to handle it. How simple.

This is called a backer.

If nothing happens, you can eat and take for free with peace of mind.

If something goes wrong, it can be settled by just talking and showing off your face.

However, the situation has changed now.

His face is not easy to use.

He finally knew who Shen Lijia was.

This little fat man with an unattractive appearance but a sharp tongue, his father is actually Shen Feng, the former head shopkeeper of Heifeng Village, who is famous in the Demonic Valley!

Heifeng Village has developed into one of the largest bandit dens in Yanyu County over the past ten years.

Even if you look at the entire Trapped Demon Valley, it still cannot be underestimated.

Otherwise, Shen Feng would not have been able to call so many green forest horse bandits to help.

In recent years, the big shopkeeper Shen Feng has been obsessed with the Baidao business, but in the green forest, Heifeng Village is still very famous, and the big shopkeeper Shen is also very famous.

This is the power of prestige.

And Hua Duxiu, needless to say, is likely to become the governor's son-in-law in the future.

This is not a joke. Hua Duxiu brought Peng Yaoyao to a place like this in the middle of the night. Isn't this enough to explain the problem?

Originally, when Hua Duxiu was talking nonsense and rearranging the share division, Zhao Shentian thought that Hua Duxiu was daydreaming and was just dreaming, so he really didn't bother to pay attention to him.

But now that I think about it, what this kid said does make sense.

Heqi Sect was the top sect in Tiannan County, with a history of hundreds of years and great strength. However, they were cheated by Hua Duxiu and had to pay more than 200,000 taels of silver to the Governor's Office, nearly going bankrupt.

The Shenwei Escort Agency, run by Heqimen, was ordered to never accept government escort contracts again.

This veto on credibility means that no matter how strong the Ren Shenwei Escort Agency is, it can only become a second-rate escort agency.

The person who took the initiative to introduce the Shenwei Escort Agency into Shenquan City to compete head-on with the Hua's Escort Agency, the Lord of Shenquan City, Li Butian, was transferred to a small city in Shushen County to be the Lord of the city.

Princess Huang of Shushen County has always been at odds with Shangguan Jie. Now that Li Butian has been transferred to Shushen County, he will probably have to endure the consequences by himself in the days ahead.

Well, don’t say it. No one will listen even if you say it.

As for Shangguan Jie, the Governor was furious because of the heavy loss of the escort silver in Yanyu County and gave him a severe reprimand.

Although there was no actual punishment, the governor's attitude said it all: If you want to deal with me, you should think about it first.

The governor dealt with Heqimen, Shenwei Escort Agency, and Li Butian in front of Shangguan Jie. Shangguan Jie had no room for maneuver and could only grit his teeth and swallow the bitter fruit.

Zhao Shentian was present throughout the process, watching the Governor deal with these people one by one.

After returning home, Zhao Shentian immediately sent a message to his cousin Zhao Erdan, strictly ordering him not to return to Pomo City within a year!

Why?

Because he was really scared. He was afraid that Zhao Erdan would be caught by people from the Governor's Office and then implicated.

When the momentum is not right, it becomes a stepping stone for others.

When it comes to politics, one must look at the general trend and the limelight.

Governor Peng took advantage of this escort silver incident to not only severely suppress Shangguan Jie's power, but also made a large sum of compensation and appeased the army.

The six-month slump was wiped out.

So, the more Zhao Shentian thought about Hua Duxiu's words, the more he felt that they made sense.

The situation is still unclear, and in the officialdom, it is important to fight without breaking up, so there is no need for him to be Shangguan Jie's pawn.

Even Shangguan Jie himself chose to lie low for the time being, restraining his small movements completely.

There is no need to rush to take a position.

If something really happens, Shangguan Jie has a big boss behind him to protect him, but Zhao Shentian doesn't.

Shangguan Jie was far away in Yanyu County, but he was in Pomo City, in the same city as Governor Peng.

As for the Paradise Bathing Center, whether it is 30% of the hidden shares or 10% of the hidden shares, it is all free anyway.

If the Governor's Office is really introduced as a behind-the-scenes shareholder, he and the Governor will have another layer of intersection.

Many things don't need to be said explicitly, we all understand them in our hearts, and it will be easier to interact with the Governor in the future.

After all, if there are no major changes, the governor's term of office in a realm is five years.

It has only been half a year since Governor Peng came to Trapped Demon Valley.

This means that Zhao Shentian and Governor Peng will have to live in the same city for at least four more years.

It is better to resolve a feud than to create one.

Thinking about this, Zhao Shentian actually admired Hua Duxiu's straightforward approach.

This kid's words may be annoying, but his logic is correct, right?

Introducing the bandits from Heifeng Village and the governor of the First Realm into the group, why not?

Black and white take it all.

Of course, the other original major shareholder...heh, it just makes him angry, so he might as well check the one named Peng.

They all want to hide in the back and fight with knives at the front desk, thinking of good things!

Boss Qi was still fighting for his interests, and Zhao Shentian, who had been silent, finally spoke.

"Okay, okay, Lao Qi, why are you so stubborn?"

Boss Qi was stunned, am I still stubborn?

What kind of medicine is sold in your gourd by City Master Zhao?

Zhao Shentian smiled and said , " Mr. Shen, since you and Mr. Hua have insisted again and again, and Miss Yaoyao showed up in person, then let's do what you want!"

As soon as these words came out, Shen Lijia was also stunned.

He also planned to convince Boss Qi first, and then spend some time convincing Zhao Shentian.

After all, Zhao Shentian looks more like Shangguan Jie's party. The brother-in-law doesn't know why he wants to get him to do business together.

Is this an attempt to poach the enemy and engage in unified warfare work?

As a result, before Boss Qi could convince him, Zhao Shentian took the initiative to stand on their side.

Surrendering so quickly?

Is there a conspiracy?

Go back and think about it carefully.

Shen Lijia said happily , " It's City Master Zhao who understands justice. Boss Qi, just listen to City Master Zhao and stop worrying about it! Tomorrow morning I will send someone 10,000 taels of silver over. I will go back and ask my father about the specific transformation plan." Don’t worry, you two, all the costs of the renovation will be borne by our Shen family!”

Boss Qi still wanted to argue, but seeing the smile on Zhao Shentian's face, which showed his agreement, he had no choice but to keep silent.

Boss Qi sighed silently. He first gave away 70% of his bathing center shares for free, but he still had 30% in hand.

Now, only 10% remains.

Businessmen have no say in politics.

The matter of doing business as a partnership was settled like this.

Ignoring Shen Lijia's side, Hua Duxiu and Peng Yaoyao had finished taking a bath and massaging, and it was almost midnight.

Quite late.

The carriage of Hua's Escort Agency had been waiting for a long time, and Hua Duxiu sent Peng Yaoyao back to the Governor's Mansion.

The two of them were in the same carriage, and as the carriage rocked gently, Peng Yaoyao felt a strange little happiness in her heart.

If you have this handsome and ghostly playboy by your side every day, your life will definitely be very happy.

Could it be that this is love?

After all, Peng Yaoyao is just a little girl of sixteen or seventeen years old.

When it comes to matters of the heart, I am confused and ignorant.

Hua Duxiu was so sleepy that he squinted his eyes, half asleep.

Peng Yaoyao asked softly , " Brother Xiu, don't you want to ask how my father dealt with those people in the end?"

Hua Duxiu opened her narrow and beautiful eyes and muttered , " Why are you in such good spirits?"

"I told you, take a bath, get a back massage, and then take a nap, what a wonderful thing, but you didn't listen."

Peng Yaoyao blushed and said , " Bah, your words are really annoying, what...sleep or not."

Hua Duxiu sighed and said , " Alas, what's the point of making so much money? What's the point of being such a high-ranking official? Isn't it just to live a life like a god? Now that you have these conditions, you don't cherish them. You really don't know what you are talking about."

Peng Yaoyao said , " Hearing what you said, someone who doesn't know you would think you are not ambitious at all."

"Those people, even if you don't tell me, I can guess what they are, I don't care. My father, Uncle Feng, and your father are here, and things will definitely get better in the future. As long as I am sure of this, I can leave with peace of mind."

"Besides, before we leave, we can make City Lord Zhao relax his stance a little, which will be a good thing for your family to gain a foothold here. City Lord Zhao is an old fox who has been operating in Demon Breaking City for a long time. If he relaxes his stance, we can completely turn him against us in the future."

Peng Yaoyao already understood Hua Duxiu's considerations.

While he was helping the Hua family, he was also helping the Peng family.

"Of course, we can't be impatient. Some people are fence-sitters. If the wind is strong in the east, they lean to the west. If the wind is strong in the west, they lean to the east."

Peng Yaoyao laughed and said , " It's not as frivolous as you say."

Hua Duxiu waved his hand lazily , " You are still too young, you think too simply, and sometimes you are a little naive."

"Although I, Hua Duxiu, do not like fighting, in this world, either the east wind prevails over the west wind, or the west wind prevails over the east wind. It will always be like this. Therefore, you must not trust the Zhao family too quickly."

Peng Yaoyao pouted, a little unconvinced , " Aren't you the one who always claims to be the most concerned about a harmonious society?"

Hua Duxiu smiled slightly , " That is the vision in my heart."

Peng Yaoyao was too lazy to refute.

No matter what you say, whether you interpret it positively or negatively, you can't beat Young Master Hua.

"Brother Xiu, a 30% share of the profits must be a lot of money every month, right? Is it really appropriate to give so much money to the Governor's Office for nothing?"

Hua Duxiu smiled again , " Yaoyao, poverty has limited your imagination! This little money is nothing, look at your father, he is really generous. Open your mouth, Heqimen will give you an extra 100,000 taels of silver, isn't it exciting?"

Peng Yaoyao was speechless.

What does this have to do with anything?

Although Hua Duxiu's words were quite unreliable and he often went astray, Peng Yaoyao couldn't help feeling sad when she thought that Hua Duxiu was about to leave the Demon Valley and might have to be gone for a long time.

At night, Peng Yaoyao sometimes secretly asked herself:

This annoying Hua Duxiu, I just met him by chance, and when we first met, he even wanted to leave me to die. What on earth did I like about him?

This annoying guy is completely useless except that he is a little handsome, speaks in an interesting way, has decent writing skills, is good at fighting, likes to be picky, and has a little money at home!

But Peng Yaoyao gradually fell in love with him.

Peng Yaoyao was a little sad , " Brother Xiu, how long do you plan to be gone?"

Hua Duxiu thought for a moment and said , " It's hard to say. I'll try to come back within a year. I'm a homesick person and I'm used to being served. If I go to that shabby place in Mobei and drink sand every day, a year is the limit."

Peng Yaoyao smiled and said , " You. One year is too short. It's hard to achieve great success in martial arts, let alone one year, even in eight or ten years. You only came back after one year, so I'm afraid you'll only learn half of it."

Hua Duxiu thought to himself: Cultivating internal strength is not like learning physical skills. The role my eyes can play is limited, which is indeed a problem.

Forget it, I’m too lazy to think about it, just take it one step at a time!

Hua Duxiu laughed and said , " Why, are you still expecting me to stay in Mobei for seven or eight years?"

Peng Yaoyao said , " That's right. You, Mr. Hua, are so powerful. After you go to Jizong, why don't you get a high-level position like elder or guardian before coming back?"

Hua Duxiu rolled his eyes , " Fame is nothing but floating clouds! I, Hua Duxiu, am not someone who cares about fame."

"Alas, you. Don't do anything stupid when you are out there. The power of your Hua family can't reach that far, and neither can I. You speak so bluntly. If you offend some big shot, you will be the one who suffers."

Hua Duxiu was stunned . " Look at what you said. What's wrong with me being honest? Don't you like me because of my honest and simple character?"

Peng Yaoyao was embarrassed , " No!"

Peng Yaoyao glared at Hua Duxiu fiercely. This man was really speechless.

Peng Yaoyao cleared her mind and said , " You have never been far away, so you may not know. Most of the top famous sects in the world, especially those in Mobei, do not care much about the government's face. I am worried about you..."

Hua Duxiu waved his hand , " It's okay, let's take it one step at a time. If they really don't want to accept me, humph, at worst I can just kidnap one of Ji Zong's direct disciples and force him to teach me the skills."

"There is always a way."

Peng Yaoyao was speechless , " ...as long as you are happy."
