"Elder Meng's words are wrong. When the old man passed here just now with the head of the council, he ran into this Lord Cardiff who advanced to the star stage. He originally planned to congratulate him, but the old man found out that he had a relationship with this Lord in other places. After a chance encounter, this will show up."

The old man Gu who was on the side spoke at this time. What he said was water-tight and plausible. At the same time, he glanced at Hollande. Although he did not identify him, he believed that Hollande would definitely remember him.

Because when he was in Black Rock City, he assisted Guo Ye Haotian, Hollande and others to leave Black Rock City, so the two met once.

Old man Gu is obviously not a fuel-efficient lamp, but he has never had a good opportunity to perform well since he came to the Imperial Capital Foundry Masters Association, and now he has such an opportunity, of course he will not let it go, and it happens to be in front of the chairman. Show your face.

Hearing Old Man Gu's words, Hollande's face immediately changed. His eyes fell on Old Man Gu, and he found that he had indeed met him before, and that he was the branch president of the Foundry Branch when he was in Black Rock City.

President Mills and Elder Meng who were on the side noticed the change in Hollande's face, and they had different thoughts in their hearts.

Regarding the sudden arrival of President Mills and Old Man Gu, Elder Meng was surprised, but not surprised, because he already knew from his information that Ye Haotian had the status of a craftsman, and the Foundry Masters Guild must also be interested in Ye Haotian. Tian is very interested.

Old man Gu looked at Hollande with a smile on his face, and Hollande immediately returned to his normal expression and smiled at Old Man Gu.

Although Hollande was very surprised to see old man Gu suddenly, he could also hear that "Black Rock City" and "Ye Haotian" were not mentioned in the countermeasure. He knew that the other party didn't want to reveal his identity. Leaving Black Rock City made Hollande somewhat grateful to Old Man Gu.

"Excuse me, both of you, I don't know why you are here?" At this time, Cardiff said to President Mills and Old Man Gu from the side.

Apparently, he had also noticed the slight change in Hollande's expression just now. Being experienced, he immediately realized that Hollande and Old Man Gu must know each other, and there were some things that he couldn't say right now, so he hurriedly changed the subject.

"Oh, it's all my fault that the old man was so focused on talking to Elder Meng that he forgot to congratulate His Excellency Cardiff." President Mills immediately said kindly to Cardiff.

"We are members of the Imperial Capital Foundry Association. This is President Mills, and I am Elder Gu."

At this time, the old man also introduced himself with a smile, and when he introduced his identity, he didn't mention Black Rock City, apparently deliberately avoiding some sensitive information.

"Thank you two for coming, it's just two..."

Seeing that the other party had a more friendly attitude, Cardiff also smiled back, but he hesitated to speak, obviously hesitant and scrupled.

"Of course we also have important matters to discuss, but it's obviously inconvenient here, can you..." President Mills said with a faint smile, and he also deliberately emphasized "If there is a discussion", it is obvious that the purpose of coming is not only to congratulate Cardiff for his advancement .

Like Elder Meng, he had some scruples when speaking, and he didn't mention Ye Haotian as if he had a tacit understanding, but Hollande and Cardiff already understood the real purpose of their visit.

Both of them represented the Apothecary Guild on the one hand, and the Foundry Guild on the other. Their identities already explained the problem. It is not difficult to guess their thoughts based on the rich experience of Hollande and Cardiff.

"Well, as long as the two of you don't dislike the simplicity of this place, then please come in and talk." At this moment, Hollande said.

Although he still doesn't know the specific thoughts of the two of them, but in order not to make the situation stalemate, because the Imperial Capital's Pharmacist Guild and Foundry Guild have to give some face, and because of Old Man Gu's "love", he also Had to make an invitation gesture.

"Are you all okay!" Then he looked at the three brothers and others and asked.

"Thank you, Mr. Ao, for your concern. I'm fine!" Sha Tongtian hurriedly bowed in response.

Although the three brothers and others were oppressed by that Elder Helian's aura before, they have all taken the Purple Jade Pill at this time, and their complexions are much better.

In front of several "big shots", they obviously had no place to speak. At this moment, they all stood aside, as if they hadn't seen anything, and they were just playing the role of "gatekeepers".

"Well, that's good, Sha Tongtian, you go in and report first, others will guard here, and no one can enter!" Hollande nodded, and then ordered them.

"If someone tries to break in, you know what to do!" Cardiff added, with a serious expression on his face.

He had never given such orders to the three brothers and others before. It seemed that after returning to the star rank, the majesty and aura of the strong in the past also returned.

However, with his current status and status, he is also qualified to speak to the three brothers and Gremi like this, and there is absolutely nothing wrong with him ordering this in the current situation.

"Subordinates obey!"

Several other people responded in unison, and then Sha Tongtian quickly entered the courtyard, while the others continued to guard outside the courtyard like menacing gods.

Usually Hollande and Cardiff rarely give them such direct orders, but today's situation is special, and the few of them have already known very well that both of them are now star-level powerhouses, and they have great prestige in Ye Haotian's mind. Gao, so I dare not show any disrespect to them.

Regardless of whether Ye Haotian was present or not, they all had to be in awe of Hollande and Cardiff. This is the dignity of the strong!

"Three please!"

Seeing that Sha Tongtian had gone in to inform Ye Haotian, Hollande politely made a "please" gesture to the three of them.

"Please!"

Accompanied by Hollande, Cardiff and Ye Ying, Elder Meng, President Mills and Old Man Gu walked into the courtyard.

At this time, Ye Haotian had already learned that someone was coming to visit, and he smiled wryly at this. He knew that Cardiff's breakthrough was too big today, and it must have attracted the attention of many forces, which was unavoidable.

After today, this house will definitely attract the attention of many forces, and maybe it will be discovered that he is here. It seems that this place is no longer safe, and he must quickly find a safe place to resettle everyone.

After a while, Hollande and others entered a hall, which looked very simple, not only without all kinds of luxurious decorations, but also without a maid.

All the way from entering the house, Elder Meng and President Mills noticed that the house looked deserted, and they didn't even see a single servant. This surprised them, but they immediately understood that the owner must have lived in the house not long ago. for the sake.

In fact, this hall is only in the front yard. Sha Tongtian has asked Ferrander to arrange for all the soldiers to stay in the house in advance. He obviously doesn't want to expose them too early. Will this prevent Elder Meng, who is a star-level powerhouse, from being probed by others? That's another matter.

"Three please sit down!"

Both the host and the guest were seated, and Elder Meng sat alone on one side. Opposite him were President Mills and Old Man Gu, while Cardiff and Hollande sat on the front seat on the left and right.

"I'm sorry, we just came to the imperial capital. It's very simple and there are no maids here. Please forgive me!" Hollande said first.

"No problem! First of all, on behalf of the Foundry Masters Guild, the president congratulates Your Excellency Cardiff for advancing to the star rank. Please prepare a small gift. Please don't be disgusted with it!"

After President Mills sat down, he immediately spoke, took out a brocade box like Elder Meng, and placed it on the tea table in front of him.

After all, there were no maids here, and in his capacity, he obviously couldn't stand up and deliver the gift in front of Cardiff. If he did that, he would lose his identity, and it would also make Cardiff feel uncomfortable.

"President Mills is very polite, I thank you!" Cardiff responded very politely. He also didn't stand up to take the brocade box from the coffee table, but just glanced at it, looking very plain.

At this time, the atmosphere in the hall became a little weird. Neither Elder Meng nor President Mills planned to take the initiative to mention "important matters", and both wanted to wait for the other party to speak first.

Hollande and Cardiff didn't know how to start the conversation, and the three parties had some scruples about each other, because they all knew that "important things" were more sensitive.

"I heard that Elder Gu had an affair with this Excellency outside the courtyard before. What is going on? Can you tell me so that I can satisfy my curiosity!" Elder Meng said suddenly, and then looked at Ao. Lang De and Old Man Gu.

Elder Meng is an old fox. His words are obviously to let the foundry guild speak up first, so that he can look at the situation before raising topics he is interested in, and he can test the attitudes of Hollande and Cardiff.

Because Ye Haotian was not present, it was inconvenient for him to directly mention the topic about Ye Haotian, and he did not specify who Hollande and Old Man Gu would tell the story. He was just waiting for anyone to start this topic, so that Ye Haotian can be drawn out according to his ideas.

As soon as Old Man Gu heard Elder Meng's words, he cursed in his heart, what an old fox, who doesn't understand what you mean, you want to use us as your pathfinder, but you stay behind and move forward and retreat freely, don't even think about it!

But he immediately thought of his purpose of coming here, and knew that if he didn't take the initiative to mention Ye Haotian, I'm afraid that today's visit would be in vain, which would also make him lose trust in front of the president, and even lose the chance of promotion.

In fact, Elder Meng also felt the pulse of Old Man Gu, that's why he said that.And now he was looking at old man Gu with a smile, obviously expecting the other party to mention Ye Haotian first.

"Where, we only met once before, so it's okay not to mention it!" Old man Gu glanced at Elder Meng, and said helplessly, it was really hard for him to mention Ye Haotian directly, and his face became a little weird.

"President Gu was just joking. I didn't expect to meet again in the Izumo Emperor Capital after parting with Black Rock City. It's really a pleasure to meet you!" Seeing old man Gu's expression was a bit weird, and Hollande couldn't pretend to be nothing, he slightly He said to old man Gu with a smile.

"Oh, Elder Gu, you really have seen it before!"

Hearing what Hollande said, President Mills narrowed his eyes and glanced at the old man Gu and Hollande, and said in a pretense of confusion.

Because he had heard old man Gu mention that he knew Hollande before, his purpose of saying this was obviously to encourage old man Gu to continue talking, and by the way, to draw out Ye Haotian.

Hearing President Mills' hint, old man Gu understood in his heart, he smiled a little dryly, and only listened to what he said.

"Yeah, not long after you left Black Rock City, the old man also left Black Rock City, and came to the Izumo Imperial Capital, and became an elder of the Foundry Masters Guild... Needless to say, President Mills and I went to I came here to meet little friend Ye, I wonder if Mr. Ao can do it..."

He didn't care too much, and the topic directly mentioned Ye Haotian.
