Finally, under the guidance of Lie Hanqing, Silber stopped in front of an old building that seemed to be leaking everywhere.
This old building Silber estimated, except for the new
Except for the stamped signboard, the other youngest components should all be stamped with a round older than myself.
If you insist on calculating the rent, it is really suitable for people of the same age like Lie Hanqing to rent it.
With these thoughts in mind, Silber followed Lie Hanqing into the old building with "Li's Detective Agency" hanging on it.
After passing through several floors full of garbage and sundries to reach the rooftop, Lie Hanqing carelessly pushed open the door of a board room on the rooftop, and greeted the inside:
"Hey! It's been a long time, everyone, and my mother is back!"
Silber stood behind her and turned his gaze to the house.
As a result, Silber immediately felt a little helpless and a headache after meeting the eyes of those people in the room.
Well, thinking about it, at least Lie Hanqing didn't brag this time.
How should I put it, in this narrow house of less than [-] square meters, there sat a descendant of Drake, two dragons with the blood of the ancestors, and a Victorian whom he was quite familiar with.
Even if you don't think about the identities of these people, just their race means that they cannot be idle people.
"Come here, I'll let you all get to know each other. This is the thigh I found recently, Hilbert Lawrence, this man is a blacksmith, there is nothing he can't make in this world—Old Wei, you Didn't you say that there is a crack in Chixiao before, you can ask him to repair it for you, the craftsmanship is guaranteed.
"And... Silber, let me introduce you quickly. This is Edward Atrias, this is Wen Yue, this is Wei Yanwu, and this is..."
Silber chuckled lightly and accepted Lie Hanqing's words: "Adams Swire, a big Victorian businessman, we happened to meet once in the past."
--------------
Chapter 250 Your Prestige From Londinium to Longmen——
Compared with other people, this Victorian film man called Adams Swire is indeed a circle older than others in terms of appearance and age.
From a rough look, the current Adams is about 40 years old, and he is indeed middle-aged in terms of the age of the people in the film.
But the others are relatively young, only in their twenties, not to mention their age. Just because of their ethnic origin alone, their life expectancy is destined to be much longer than other races.
Especially taking the dragon clan as an example, the higher the purity of the bloodline, the longer the lifespan of the dragon clan. The only one who can compare the lifespan with the pure blood dragon is the blood of the Sarkaz royal family.
As one of the most famous businessmen in Victoria in the past ten years, Adams moved the focus of his family business from Londinium two years ago to Longmen, an undeveloped border city.
At that time, many investors were saying that Adams had taken the first bad move in life, and they were all waiting to see Adams' jokes, but some people believed in Adams' vicious vision and followed him to Longmen.
Looking at it now, let alone whether Adams has taken a fancy to the potential of Longmen, but at least he has seen the chaos hidden in Londinium.
The World Expo is just the first boulder to fall in a chain of collapses. Cracks have spread all over the mountain, and an inevitable collapse is coming.
Of course, Silber is also one of the people who agrees with Adams' vision, although it is a little boastful to say it by himself.
When Silber was still in the Londinium Workshop, Adams was one of the few businessmen who sponsored him. If Silber hadn't insisted on independence, it is very likely that he would have been acquired by Adams.
"Mr. Lawrence, I really didn't expect to see you in this place."
A decent smile appeared on the face of the big businessman, perhaps because of a problem of habit. Although this smile is full-bodied, it also gives people a feeling that they are planning something all the time:
"Everyone, maybe you have all heard of the Victorian masterpiece at the World Expo: the Williams Weather Control Instrument, and what I want to tell you is that this Mr. Lawrence is the Williams Weather Control Instrument One of the key figures who came out.
"On my return to Londinium, Mr Fisher-Williams dined with me once, and that was the only time in my life I saw the scholar racking his brains for words to praise Another scholar. If Mr. Lawrence joins us, our progress will be stronger."
The people here are not the kind of existence behind closed doors. Their special identities allow them to learn a lot of things, such as the inside story of the World Expo.
Although the Victorian authorities have been trying their best to cover up the accident at the World Expo, even the Royal Army Intelligence Department is almost too busy to die from overwork, and it is difficult to prevent part of the truth from being revealed.
Edward Atrias, a man of conspicuous Drake blood, obviously knew the truth about the Expo.
He stood up, raised the glass in his hand, and greeted Silber: "Thank you for all your efforts at the World Expo. If it weren't for you, the natural disaster would have fallen on the sky of Londinium on time. ...that was a disaster, Mr Lawrence, you saved countless lives and futures."
"Also, if my guess is right." Wei Yanwu, who had been observing Silber, finally took up the conversation.
: "The weather control device technology that appeared in research institutes in various countries should be the efforts of Mr. Lawrence and Lady Kazdale. Those short-sighted bureaucrats will never be able to learn this kind of heart and mind."
How else can we say that all of these people are old-fashioned and old-fashioned? After what Adams said, he immediately searched for and matched Silber's identity from his memory, and then a series of various All kinds of praise directly made Silber a little at a loss.
However, the reason why they showed this appearance was indeed because they were able to realize one thing——Hilber was a talent, and he was also a talent they were short of.
People, they are not lacking, even when facing the Duke of Ursus, too many people will cause unnecessary trouble, so what they want is the elite.
Under such conditions, technical talents are even more precious than treasures.
Due to various reasons, it is difficult to mobilize their personal connections, and the shortage of technical talents is quite serious.
Now that the doctor in his team suddenly brought in a craftsman who seemed quite capable, he had to think of a way to keep him.
That is to say, Gaul was extremely suppressed by the Waterloo incident, and it was impossible for Kosiche to spread the story of his embarrassment to the outside world. Otherwise, these people would know what Silber did in Waterloo. Made a deal with Silber.
It can only be said that when Silber himself didn't feel anything, his traces had already been left on this land.
Facing everyone's overt or covert praise, the one who was more excited than Silber himself was Lie Hanqing who was standing beside him, as if she was praising herself.
And after meeting and greeting each other, Lie Hanqing also noticed that not everyone in the office was there: "What about Xiaoli, why is this guy willing to go out, and Lao Lin is not here today."
"Old Lin's subordinates have not been very peaceful recently. He went back to beat those young people."
Wei Yanwu was holding a tobacco rod, and just about to puff out the clouds, he was glared at by the woman named Wenyue beside him, so he put down his hand without any trace: "Xiao Li got a big deal this morning, and said he could do it." Solve his rent and utility bills for three months, and then just rush out."
"It's not easy. His firm can actually get business."
While he was lamenting why the owner of this office hadn’t starved to death, Silber also got acquainted with Adams again, recalled the past days in Londinium, and after seeing that the atmosphere was almost the same, Still led by Adams, the topic was drawn to what they had discussed before.
"It is now certain that Kosiche's deputy has not appeared at Longmen for two weeks."
Adams pressed his knuckles against his chin. His intelligence network is the most active outside the Longmen, so he has the most information on this aspect: "The last time I saw him was at Chernobog, After that, he led a team directly northward, whereabouts are unknown.
"Recently, since the day before yesterday, bulk goods from Ursas have entered the Longmen one after another. I don't know what is inside, but judging from the outer packaging, it should be a mechanical creation of Origin Stone Industry. "
Edward immediately rolled up his sleeves: "Anyway, Kosche is definitely not going to use these things for good deeds, just find an opportunity to smash them first, so as to save a long night of dreams."
Obviously, compared to other people, Edward belongs to the type who never talks much when he can do it.
However, this relatively reckless plan naturally did not get the consent of other people.
To be honest, if it wasn't for the fact that Xianyun was still crumbling over his head, Silber would agree with Edward's plan.
It doesn't matter what medicine he buys in Kexi's gourd, smashing the gourd directly is more effective than anything else.
On the whole, their plan is still similar to Xu Xu Tuzhi, bit by bit to erode Kosiche's influence in Longmen, and try to avoid the situation where the other party and themselves are caught in a dead net.
After all, smashing the entire Longmen is a result they don't want to see.
After listening for a while, Silber realized that these delicate tasks had nothing to do with him. All his confrontations with Kosiche before were all head-to-head confrontations. They didn't do it by themselves, and this time it looked quite similar.
While listening, Hilber randomly found a seat in the small board room and sat down, took out the jade pendant he gave him in the past year, played with it in his hand, and distracted himself from thinking about Longinus. Some designs of guns.
On the other side, Wei Yanwu, who had just finished a proposal, looked around, and when his eyes swept over his companions, he paused for a while on the jade pendant in Silber's hand.
----------
Chapter 250 II The Imperial Order 12 Years Ago
"Sorry, Mr. Lawrence, to take up a moment of your time."
"It's okay, if Mr. Wei has something, just say it, and you don't have to be so polite."
As the topic of discussion gradually came to a conclusion, everyone gathered in Li's Detective Agency also left one after another, and began to deal with the matter that had just been decided.
After Wei Yanwu left, he specially
I greeted Silber and wanted to ask him something alone.
For this reason, even Wen Yue and Lie Hanqing were invited outside the house to wait for a while.
Silber also has a certain degree of curiosity about this young man from Yan Kingdom. Looking at his age, Wei Yanwu reckons he should be about the same age as himself, but the important thing is Wei Yanwu's race.
Dragon family, this bloodline has a very high significance in Yan Kingdom, comparable to Victoria's Drake and Aslan family, it is completely the royal bloodline of a country.
Although it is said that with the development of the race and various open and secret struggles within the imperial court, the blood of the dragon clan is relatively more prosperous than races like Drake, so it is not that it is difficult to find even an heir.
After thinking about this point, Silber probably also figured out the identity behind Wei Yanwu. If nothing unexpected, then Wei Yanwu is also a child of the contemporary royal family of Yan Kingdom, but he doesn't know his status in the royal family.
Therefore, Silber is also quite interested in the questions Wei Yanwu wants to ask. As the other party, he must have a lot of secrets that are rare for ordinary people. Perhaps these secrets are still useful to him right now.
"Twelve years ago, before Fu Jiahe, the old lady of the previous generation, he once observed the sky and made another fortune-telling for the general situation of the world."
Wei Yanwu lit the tobacco in the pipe, and this time that Wenyue was not around, Wei Yanwu's posture was also a lot more presumptuous:
"The old master calculates that after ten years, the world will undergo great changes, and every year thereafter there will be a big change. If the world is handled well, the world will be smooth, but if it is not handled well, it will be ruined.
"Finally, the old lady Fu Dudu talked about the major events of No. 12, exhorted and exhorted others, saying that that year was extremely fierce, and one wrong step would drag the entire Great Yan into the bottomless abyss, but if it can be safe If you spend it, at least 50 years of the country will not fall."
Wei Yanwu raised his eyes to look at Hilber, the room was gradually shrouded in smoke, and there seemed to be a little blur between each other: "In that year, the old heavenly masters who were stationed at Yumen seldom returned with letters, and they spoke in a very serious tone. After confirming the hexagram of the Taifu, he then asked people to make a weapon, saying that only those who carry this weapon can help Dayan survive the catastrophe of that year.
"Under the prestige of the old master, Si Suitai also agreed to let the year beast incarnate to choose the person who wields the weapon..."
Having said that, Silber was already able to understand what the other party wanted to express.
The piece of nephrite jade pendant that exudes warmth is still flipping between his fingers. Nian cast this jade pendant 12 years ago, and after waiting for 12 years, he gave this jade pendant to himself.
"I have no intention of asking about Mr. Lawrence's past. Since the old heavenly master has also allowed it, there must be a reason for her to choose Mr. Lawrence as the incarnation of the year beast."
Wei Yanwu lightly tapped the cigarette rod, and knocked off some of the ash on it: "The matter of Xianyun is difficult for casual people to approach, and it is not easy for me to ask, let alone meddle in it, but since Mr. Lawrence is willing to wade into this muddy water Among them, I also want Mr. Lawrence to pay more attention to some things, hoping to help."
Silber raised his brows, he is a real newcomer, he really doesn't understand all the twists and turns in the fairyland, and there is no way to deal with the undercurrents in the dragon gate, since Wei Yanwu is willing to sell him a face , Said to myself, that is naturally the best thing.
"This time, the Immortal Fall was handled by the Lie family of the Longmen family. The Lie family is a veteran noble family in the Yan Kingdom. Although they have lost power in recent years, they still hold all the power accumulated in the past.
"It's just that there are different opinions on the matter of Xianyun in Yan Country. I believe that Mr. Lawrence can understand that there is more than one way to solve the problem, and when it is difficult for everyone to tell which method is more effective. They’re going to stick to each other’s opinions.”
Wei Yanwu took a breath of smoke, and after a moment of silence, he exhaled heavily with a sigh:
"The ancestor of the Lie family, Lie Yongzhou, was born in Dali Temple. Later, by chance, he joined Si Sui Tai. After that, the children of the Lie family also worked in Si Sui Tai. They have a deep understanding of Sui Beast, and the current Patriarch Lie Wenhai is one of them. Outstanding, this is also the reason why the matter of Xianyun was handed over to the Lie family."
Of course, Hilber had heard of the name Lie Wenhai. He was the grandfather of Lie Hanqing, and it was said that he was extremely powerful.
It's just that Lie Hanqing's attitude towards this grandfather is quite complicated.
And that level of complexity even made Silber doubt whether Lie Wenhai treated Lie Hanqing as a grandson.
Wei Yanwu continued: "But after Lie Wenhai, all the descendants of Lie's family devoted themselves to Tianshi Mansion and Dali Temple, and none of them were willing to enter Sisuitai. Miss Lie's generation had a lot of conflicts because of this matter, and she even He once left Yan Kingdom and went to Gaul... I believe Mr. Lawrence should know about this."
"I also met Miss Hanqing in Burgundy, Gaul." Silber nodded. "She did say that she was not very willing to go back to her family."
