Nine idlers

Chapter 240 Five Real Conspiracy

Xu Changqing's question seemed to hit the nail on the head. The Western woman's expression was slightly paused, her eyes were introverted, she seemed to be thinking about something, and she was shaking the wine glass unconsciously in her hand.After a while, she drank the red wine in the glass as if she had made some important decision, and said solemnly: "Since Mr. Xu wants to know, I can tell you, I hope Mr. will not spread it. Then he raised his chest and said as if he mustered up his courage: "As you expected, there is indeed a secret hidden in this golden statue of the Feathered Serpent God. This secret is where the legendary Golden Kingdom in South America is located."

"The country of gold?" Xu Changqing's face showed a rare look of bewilderment, obviously he didn't know much about this so-called country of gold, he only vaguely remembered where he had heard such a name.Inferred from the name, this so-called country of gold should be an ancient South American relic with huge treasures.For Xu Changqing, the treasures in the secular world have completely lost their allure, so after hearing the answer, he no longer has much interest in this matter.

The Western woman didn't seem to see the indifferent look in Xu Changqing's eyes, and continued: "I just heard that Mr. Xu cured the hysteria for the heir of the He family. The He family will definitely be grateful to you. If you can help me I asked the He family to buy the golden statue, and the He family, due to their sympathy and the Chen family's relationship, has a [-]% chance of agreeing to Mr. After the matter is completed, I am willing to pay a considerable amount of money to reward Mr. In addition, you can also make a contract, and when you find the country of gold, all the treasures there will be divided [-]-[-]."

"It's really attractive." Xu Changqing smiled and said, "But I'm curious. From your tone, your family is considered very powerful. Why don't you go out and buy the golden statue from the He family?"

"I tried, but the He family neither recognizes that his ancestor is the leader of the Blue Banner Gang, nor does he admit that there is that golden statue." The descendant of the Banner Gang leader, that golden statue was also buried in the tomb of the ancestors of the He family..."

"The dead are the greatest! It's no wonder that the He family would not admit it. For us Chinese, no matter how precious the funeral objects are, their descendants will not do this kind of thing. In comparison, you Westerners don't like this kind of thing. This kind of business of stealing and digging graves is very good." Xu Changqing sneered a little bit disdainfully, and continued: "Besides, aren't you Westerners very good at using power to suppress people? Why don't you use the power of the Hong Kong British authorities to punish the He family? pressure?"

"Mr. Xu, the question you raised is very strange. Would you announce it loudly after you know where the treasure is? Or maybe this is also one of the virtues of you Chinese people." The Western woman sarcastically showed no weakness One sentence, followed by saying: "The relationship between my family and the United Kingdom is not harmonious, and the importance of the He family to the Hong Kong British authorities is far beyond your imagination, sir. The He family is not only the general agent of the British opium business in East Asia , and under the leadership of British politicians, it became the arms agent of the four countries of Britain, France, Spain and Portugal in Southeast Asia. In East Asia, my family’s strength cannot be compared with that of the He family, let alone put pressure on the He family.”

"How powerful is the He family?" After Xu Changqing heard this, his heart moved, and some things recalled in his mind, he frowned and pondered for a moment, and couldn't help but secretly said: "Good boy, the picture is not small!"

Only now did Xu Changqing fully understand Chen Hui's thoughts, and was surprised by the simplicity of his ambitions.Xu Changqing is almost certain that the arms business of the He family must be in the hands of He Ling, otherwise He Ling, a woman from a wealthy family without any inheritance rights, would never be able to take such an important position in the League.Chen Hui approached He Ling and had a relationship with him, probably because he wanted to take over the entire arms business from He Ling through this means of marriage.

Although the Tongmenghui has already grasped the political power on the surface and occupied half of the country, but after careful consideration, one can know that this half of the country is not secure.The biggest reason is that there is no large-scale arsenal in the south controlled by the League, and almost all the arms of the League need to be purchased from outside.If Chen Hui can fully grasp the arms business in He Ling's hands, then he is likely to use this to make the collateral family of the Chen family completely fill the power vacancy after the Chen family left, and let the collateral family formally replace the Chen family and become the largest in the Republic of China. official businessmen.

For Chen Hui's ambition, Xu Changqing didn't feel disgusted, on the contrary, he admired it a little bit. Besides, he didn't want to 'intervene' in the battle between the two families of the Chen family, so he didn't intend to continue to study Chen Hui's mind at this moment.The Western woman on the side didn't know that Xu Changqing's mind had already flown to other places, and thought that he was considering whether to cooperate with her, so she didn't make a sound, and sat quietly by the side.

"Sorry, I'm not interested in that country of gold. These worldly treasures are of no use to me." Xu Changqing withdrew his thoughts, refused bluntly, then stood up, picked up his clothes, and was about to leave, as if thinking of it What, he hesitated for a moment, and said: "Father Matthews and I have a very close relationship. Since he can write letters for you, I can't help you at all. Just send you a message! As far as I know, The tombs of the ancestors of the He family are extremely secret, and only a few of the He family members know about them. If you don’t want to lose your clues in the end, you’d better go to the He family tonight, because something big will happen to the He family tonight.”

The Western woman was taken aback for a moment, then smiled quickly, nodded and said, "Thank you!" Then she took out a beautifully crafted gold card from her bag, handed it to Xu Changqing, and said, "If Mr. Xu goes to If you are in Paris, France, you can use the above address to find my family’s business, and I hope to have the opportunity to entertain Mr. Xu well.”

Xu Changqing did not refuse, took the card from the Western woman, looked at the words on it, saw that it was written in French and Spanish, and felt a little puzzled, he could not help but recite the name on it: "Catherine Estanba Catalina?" After pronouncing the name, he couldn't help but think of a character in a collection of western legends he read when he was a child, so he asked a little curiously: "Excuse me, Miss Catherine, the Spanish Katarina, the legendary pirate fire lady is..."

"She is my ancestor." Before Xu Changqing could finish asking, Catherine brushed her fiery red hair and replied.

Xu Changqing smiled, and rarely reached out to shake hands with Catherine, and said: "I am really honored to meet the descendants of the fire girl! I was an admirer of your ancestors when I was young. The reason why I worshiped her is It's not because she was the best pirate at that time, but mainly because of her love and loyalty to her own country, which makes people have to admire her." With a slight wry smile, he laughed at himself in Chinese: "If I am a Chinese , can be as loving and loyal to the country as your ancestors, maybe it will not be the current state of broken mountains and rivers."

After speaking, regardless of whether Catherine understood or not, she stopped talking, put the card in her pocket, opened the door, and walked out.
