my unparalleled way

Chapter 1455
At the beginning of the night, a dinner party for several generals in the southeast war zone kicked off at the Governor's Mansion in Jupan City.

Unlike the cold and drizzle outside that made passers-by involuntarily shrunk their bodies and quickened their pace, what was inside the bright banquet hall was only warmth and enthusiasm, as if it were another world.

The towering dome was illuminated by the lights, and everything in the hall, even the pillars, looked beautiful.The melodious sound of the piano is like gurgling water flowing in everyone's heart, and the aroma of delicious food and wine is floating in every corner inside.

There were not too many people in the hall, only about [-] people in total.There are obviously more celebrities, nobles and rich gentry in Jupan City, but tonight's banquet was initiated by the governor, so naturally not everyone is qualified to be invited.

Although the development of the Three Swords Chamber of Commerce is extremely rapid and vigorous, in this hall, Lin San and Ahan are still far from being the focus of the field.

They have indeed achieved greater 'success' this year, but there are many more 'successful' people than them.

What's more, the protagonists of tonight's banquet are several generals who have temporarily returned from the southeast theater.

The battle between the Bilan Empire and the Chilou Kingdom on the front line is still in full swing.Today's Chilou Kingdom has lost half of its country, and even the original capital has been forced to move south.

Lin San didn't pay attention to this huge war, although he was very interested in military command and even participated in it himself.

Ahan, holding a wine glass, stood beside him, showing a charming smile from time to time and chatting with a certain noble official passing by, but her attention did not leave the man beside him.

Of course she knew what he was looking at, it was a few soldiers in the field.Now is the time of war. Although Bilan's country does not seem to be affected much, it has to be said that many things still have to make way for the war, and the status of officers is naturally quite important in this specific period.

They were not wearing armor, but they were still wearing imperial military uniforms. Their heroic figures were quite dazzling in this banquet hall, and they attracted the attention of many people.

At this time, they were being accompanied by the governor personally, and it was not something they could easily come forward to say hello to.

Among those soldiers, the fourth-rank general with the highest rank was over fifty years old.In addition to several middle-aged generals, there are also two young officers. Judging from the style of their dresses, they should be only partial generals.They came back this time not for fun, nor because of any vacation, after all, the war on the front line is not over at all.

They came back to prepare food and supplies for the front line.

"If I remember correctly, the southeast theater used to be the theater where you served, don't you plan to say hello to your comrades?" Maybe it was because his expression was too serious, she deliberately joked.

"These people are not from the Sixth Corps, and have no friendship with me." He said intently.

In fact, even if these people belonged to the Sixth Corps, they might not necessarily know him.After all, he was only a ten cavalry leader back then.

"Then what should we do, or use your Red Blood Medal to approach them? Compared with other people, it should be easier for you to find a common topic with them, right?"

As Lin San's most powerful arm, she certainly knew what he was thinking.

That's right, no matter how many protective gears the adventure group and gang buy, how can it compare to the purchase of the army?In fact, just two months ago, the protective gear of the Three Swords Chamber of Commerce had been equipped with the city guards of four cities.

Among them, her efforts are naturally indispensable, after all, the official will never buy this kind of second-hand goods.

Of course, the more important thing is his method, deliberately leaving room for some officials to manipulate, so that they can easily get a lot of benefits from it, this is the key to winning those orders.

As for the frontline army, she really never thought about it.Although there is no problem with the quality of their protective equipment, they are second-hand products after all. To be honest, they are destined to be inferior to new ones in terms of durability... no matter how well repaired they are.

However, she is also very aware of the courage and determination of the man beside her, and he will not miss the opportunity to strengthen the chamber of commerce.

Once on the line of the military, the three knife merchants will really be on a giant ship, and the momentum of future development will become unstoppable.

Only this time, she seemed to guess wrong.

"I have nothing in common with them, and why should I approach them?" He suddenly turned his head and deliberately cast his gaze elsewhere.

Ahan asked curiously, "Don't you want to seize such an opportunity?"

"No." He said flatly.

"why?"

"The military will not buy second-hand goods, this road will not work."

"But even in the military, there will be gaps. What's more...we can also make new ones. If you don't try such an opportunity, how will you know it won't succeed?"

"Needless to say." He didn't seem to want to talk about this topic anymore, so much so that his gaze was already on the exit of the banquet hall.

His abnormal performance naturally aroused Ahan's curiosity, but immediately a burst of cheerful music flowed into her ears, and there were already couples of young men and women dancing arm in arm in the middle of the hall.

"Aren't you going to invite me to dance?" She smiled and held out a hand.

In the past year, they have attended no less than fifty banquets together.For their business, she put other men's shoulders, and he put other women's waists, and of course there were moments of dancing between the two.

She knew that it was impossible for him to fall in love with those women. Like herself, he was also a person who only had money and interests in his eyes.No matter how beautiful a woman is, in his eyes, the only criterion is whether she can help him.

In fact, she could see that some women would be so shallow that they would annoy him the moment they came into contact with the banyan stick, but he covered it up very well.She even suspected that this person might not have the emotions that normal people should have at all.

But fortunately, I am special to him, although I can't say I like it, but I will never get bored, because I am the same kind of person as him.

"Sorry, can I do it next time? I'm not feeling well today... I want to go back early."

There was a sincere apology on his face, but Ahan knew that the so-called discomfort was just an excuse.

Although he is not a practitioner, his energy is simply stronger than many practitioners. She has never seen him tired, let alone sick.

In her mind, he was almost a freak who would never fall down.

But she is a smart woman, and she doesn't want to make trouble with her, and she can see that he should have a real reason.

"Okay then..." She smiled, and immediately walked towards a handsome young man not far away.

A moment later, she slowly slid onto the dance floor under the invitation of the young man, and then, the corners of her eyes suddenly trembled.

She saw a woman in the group of officers who seemed to recognize him suddenly, and then the woman walked towards him quickly, even waving at him as if she had discovered her relatives, but he seemed to be hiding looking at her...

The female officer looked pretty, and she looked heroic in the light blue uniform.However, she is only a hundred cavalry commander, and it is actually an accident that she can appear on this occasion tonight.

Although female soldiers have a special status in the Bilan Army because of the current Empress Dowager, they still have to follow the rules of military rank.The female soldier and her other companion were originally the wives of a certain general in the field in the eyes of others, but now it seems that they guessed wrong.

Her behavior was a bit abrupt, so she quickly attracted the attention of many people.Especially when they saw that her line of sight and route were exactly Lin San, they were even more surprised.

The presidents of some big chambers of commerce have already speculated secretly. It is said that this young president once served as a soldier on the front line. Could it be that he really forged a friendship with a certain big man?Although this female soldier's military rank is not high, her appearance here is enough to show that her status is quite special.

In fact, it's not just them, even the governor of the province and those generals couldn't help but turn their eyes to this side.

"Lin San! Why are you here?" Her voice was full of surprise, which was the joy of reunion after a long absence.

When Lin San turned around, the same happy smile was already on his face: "Long time no see, Qi Qi."

Yes, until a moment ago, he saw her long-lost figure among the group of generals.

She is still the same, except for the slightly serious and formal attire, little has changed.

It's as if she saw herself now, so she didn't think about the so-called big shots and etiquette at all, she laughed and acted as she wanted, and patted herself on the shoulder without any scruples.

Perhaps when she was in the army, she would also be bound by military regulations.But at this moment, he still saw her from before...

He didn't expect her to appear here, because it couldn't have happened.

It didn't surprise him too much that she could be promoted to the captain of a hundred riders.Yet how did she become an entourage?And even the entourage, the Hundred Riders are not qualified to appear at this banquet, right?What's more, he knew her background. Her father was just the leader of an underground gang, not a general.

The first time he saw her, he was eager to greet her.

However, just like when he saw her suddenly on the frontline battlefield, he finally chose to mix in the crowd and watch from a distance, choosing to shrink his sight.

Of course it wasn't because he was afraid of her, let alone because he hated her.

He himself doesn't understand why, he is obviously very 'successful' now, isn't he?Even if he had no intention of running up to her to show off, he wouldn't want to avoid her, would he?

It's just that some feelings are real.He found that he was actually ashamed to meet her now...

"What are you doing now, where have you been all these years? I'm so worried, I thought you were in trouble! Also, since there's nothing wrong, why don't you go to me? I've already looked for you, It's a pity that you are not in the Fifth Corps..."

It was just the second sentence they met, and she started to criticize him like she was used to.

The familiar voice and tone made his nose a little sore, which was an emotion he hadn't experienced for a long time.

"I'm fine..." He didn't know how to talk to her, and he didn't know what to say. He was trying to change his state.Because they were separated for so long, he almost forgot what the little porter who lived under the same roof with her should have looked like back then.

But 'fortunately', his predicament was quickly broken.

"Sister Qi Qi, who is this? Is this your friend?" The person who spoke was another young female soldier who was traveling with her, also a hundred cavalry commander.

Qi Qi's actions obviously aroused her interest.

At this time, those generals seemed to be walking in this direction, accompanied by a group of high-ranking officials from the Governor's Mansion.

After reuniting after a long absence, they obviously couldn't continue the conversation...
