Chapter 490 Marriage(1/2)

Ba Kun did not leave. He sat there, lit a huge cigar, puffed out the smoke, and looked at Lu Ming up and down.

"In Antiguala, I can also create huge trouble for you. On Green Funa Island, you can change owners very quickly. And your friends, such as Chen Huanxing? They will all get into huge trouble."

Lu Ming smiled and stood up, "It seems we have nothing to talk about." He looked at his watch and said, "I have a dinner date with Brigadier Yuhase. He is at Phaya Restaurant. If you want to find me, you can go there."

A trace of ridicule flashed in Ba Kun's eyes, but he didn't say anything. He just snorted with a sullen face.

There are twelve brigades of Antiguara's regular army, which are in the hands of different families, and their numbers and equipment are also very different.

Moreover, generally speaking, these brigades with the designation of the National Guard are relatively corrupt, and their combat effectiveness is not even as strong as that of the powerful tribal armed forces, but in any case, they are state government troops with official designations.

Of these twelve brigades, ten are stationed on the peninsula.

There are three brigades around the city of Fellman, namely the Guards Brigade, the First Brigade, and the Third Brigade.

Among them, the first brigade is believed to be controlled by the Zonglawimeng family, who was born in the governor of Chachai. It is also the only armed force close to the governor of Chachai today.

Yuhase is the brigade commander of the Guards Brigade.

The number is very loud, and the other eleven brigades are all numbered.

There is only the Guards Brigade, whose name was inherited from the Guards of the Archduke of Antiguara hundreds of years ago.

Thousands of years ago, Antiguara was a grand duchy within the kingdom, and the queen conferred the title of Grand Duke of Antiguara on the noble Mitai.

However, more than 300 years ago, the state assembly deposed the Grand Duke. It can also be said that the major Mitai families jointly abandoned the Grand Duke's family.

The Grand Duke was given the honorary title of "Phaye", which could be passed down from generation to generation. At that time, he promised to support the "Phaye" family with one hundred gold coins every year.

Today, "Phaya" still has heirs, but the contribution of 100 gold coins provided by the state has not changed, and it has changed from 100 gold coins to the current 100 imperial coins.

It seems that the Phraya family is having a difficult life nowadays, and they even published a newspaper to ask for help.

As for the Grand Duke's Guards, today's Guards Brigade is also extremely poor. It is more like an ancient honor guard with swords, guns, swords and halberds. There are only about a thousand people in number. They can often be seen performing in front of the gates of wealthy merchants celebrating festivals.

Moreover, the state Legislature has repeatedly reduced funding for the brigade.

Many congressmen believe that the honor guard is no longer necessary and should be abolished.

This is because the name of the Guards Brigade is so loud that no one wants another family to have it in their hands. Anyone with such intentions will be attacked in groups. Gradually, the brigade becomes a pure guard of honor.

Therefore, when Ba Kun heard that Lu Ming was going to meet Yuhase, the Guards Brigade Commander, he just sneered in his heart. He obviously looked down upon this foreigner a little. In fact, this guy couldn't understand the situation at all, because the Guards Brigade number was

For this reason, do you think that the Guards Brigade is a very strong armed force and can be relied upon?

Lu Ming smiled at Ba Kun and turned to leave. Du Hao, Papada and others hurriedly followed.



Three luxury cars drove slowly through the shabby apartment buildings that looked like pigeon cages.

Papada sat next to Lu Ming and didn't know where she was going. The Zhongzhou man and Mr. Weichai were sent to Phaya Restaurant.

Finally, in a slightly open place, three cars slowly stopped.

Before the driver ran down and opened the door, Papada got out of the car first, then walked around to the other side and opened the door for Lu Ming.

Papadha also noticed that in the first car, there seemed to be an elderly maid and two twin girls who looked like elementary school students.

In the third car, two broad-waisted girls got out, wearing green camouflage uniforms with submachine guns hanging around their necks. One of them, a tough female soldier, was carrying a small suitcase.

Lu Ming smiled at Papada, he was quite discerning.

Then he walked towards one of the dilapidated apartments.

Papada followed and saw the two female soldiers following behind.

In front of the building, a few children were playing and singing some song. Lu Ming heard the pronunciation of "Phiye" in the song.

When several children saw someone coming, and they were people from Central China wearing luxurious clothes, they immediately dispersed.

Lu Ming asked Papada: "What are they singing?"

"It seems to be a children's song that satirizes Phaya." Papadda had never heard this song before, and the tune was very confusing. It was just a saliva song. It was probably made up by the children.

Lu Ming nodded, the restaurant can be named "Phaya" casually. The restaurant has nothing to do with the Phaya family, which also shows the decline of the Phaya family.

Entering the entrance of the corridor, the light inside was dim. It was already past four o'clock. This was because the layout inside was not very good and there was a mountain of garbage piled up at the entrance of the corridor.

Going up to the second floor, it is a tube building that looks like a dormitory building. There is a corridor in the middle and there are more than a dozen rooms in the north and south.

Lu Ming looked at the house number and came to door 207. The female soldier without a box came up and knocked on the door.

The two female soldiers are Red Three and Red Four among the seventy-two red feathers.

In Antiguara, there are eight permanent residents.

Someone inside was chirping impatiently, and then the door was opened, revealing an old man with a wrinkled face, Mitai, who looked to be in his fifties or sixties.

The old man was originally full of impatience, but when he saw the people outside standing dumbfounded and showing fear, he asked in a jabbering voice, who should he be asking about you? Have you found the wrong person?

Lu Ming smiled at Papada and said, "Tell him, my name is Zhang Aming, and I come from Montenegro. Well, you can say I'm from the East China Sea. He doesn't know where Montenegro is, so he just said that I have a good deal to discuss with him."

Papadha followed the instructions and told the old man.

The old man Mi Tai listened with suspicion on his face, but Lu Ming had already stepped in and he did not dare to stop him.

This kind of apartment consists of bedrooms and a small living room outside. There is no washroom, water room, kitchen and toilet. The entire floor is shared.

There wasn't much decent furniture inside. There was a sofa and a coffee table, but they were all in disrepair.

There was also a seven or eight-year-old girl in the room, who seemed to have just returned from washing clothes in the water room and was shaking them out to dry.

Seeing many strangers coming in, the girl timidly dragged the basin to the corner.

Lu Ming sat on the sofa and said with a smile: "Mr. Phaya, I have something good to tell you."

Over there, Papadha was stunned. Is it Phi Ya? Is it that Phi Ya?

While Papadha was translating, Hong Si opened the small suitcase in his hand. Inside were dozens of golden yellow croakers.

The old man Mi Tai looked at it blankly.

Lu Ming smiled and said: "You are considered well-informed. This is real gold. You can try it..." With a gesture, Hong Si took out one and threw it to the old man Mi Tai.

As if he had found a treasure, the old man Mitai weighed it in his hand and bit it with his teeth. His eyes lit up immediately, but he still had doubts on his face and reluctantly handed the gold bar back.

Lu Ming smiled and said: "You can hold it for now, and I am going to give these gold bars to you!" He added: "You have passed on the title of Phraya to your second son, so now it is your second son.

Your son and his wife support you, but your other children have severed ties with you, right?" He looked at the girl again and said, "This is your granddaughter, the only daughter of your second son? The future little Phaya?"

Papadha was shocked. It turned out that they were really members of the Phaya family. She translated with a calm expression on her face.

Lao Phraya was even more surprised and said a few words in Jiligulu, which meant that when the second son had a son, the title of Phraya would still be passed on to his grandson.

Lu Ming smiled: "That's not necessary. Mr. Phaya, I'm here to propose marriage. If Mr. Phaya is willing to pass on the title to his eldest daughter, I will propose to your granddaughter Xiao Phaya. Of course, she is still young.

Young, only seven years old? We can get engaged first!" With a gesture, Hong Si sent the small suitcase containing the gold bars to Lao Phaya's arms.

Lu Ming smiled and said: "These are the engagement gifts for you and Mr. Phaya."

Thirty standard gold bars cost about 30,000 yuan.

Lao Phaya was taken aback and didn't know how to react for a moment.

Lu Ming smiled again and said: "And in the Hualman Apartment, I bought a big house for your family. It is 300 square meters, which is enough for your family of four. It will be enough for a few more grandchildren in the future.

For a month, I will also give you two hundred yuan for living expenses, so that Mr. and Mrs. Phaya can live without going out to work, and they can also hire a maid to take care of you."

In this abnormally prosperous city like Fairman, if an ordinary family wants to maintain a normal life, a family of four still needs twenty or thirty yuan.

Therefore, the 100 yuan that the state government pays "Phaya" every year is basically a drop in the bucket.

And with two hundred yuan a month, you can really live a pampered life, and you can indeed hire a maid.

Lao Phaya was extremely surprised when he heard this and couldn't help but look at his granddaughter.

Xiao Phaya is actually an ordinary Mitai girl. Her appearance is not outstanding among Mitai girls, let alone the traditional Mitai appearance, which is inherently not as good-looking as those from Central China, Westerners and mixed-race groups.

Lu Ming smiled and said: "When Mr. Phraya comes back, you can discuss it again. You will know tomorrow whether I lied to you. I will come again tomorrow to transfer the Warman apartment to Mr. Phraya.

"

Warman Apartment is a middle-class community of Fairman Mitai people. It does not have a large apartment with an area of ​​300 square meters. Lu Ming bought two adjacent units and opened them up.

After all, I don't want them to be too public. It's nice to live in a middle-class community, comfortable and less likely to get into trouble.

Lao Phaya was stunned for a long time, and finally murmured a few words.

"Uncle, he asked you about your true identity." Papada said beside him.

Lu Ming nodded: "I am the staff of General Montenegro. I have tens of millions of assets. Now I want to come to Antiguala to develop. I feel that joining the Phaya family is a good start." After a pause, "And it's like this.

I have a wife, but obviously I can’t take Xiao Phaya as my concubine, so I’m going to marry

For the Phraya family, you can add Phraya to your surname. I am Zhang Phraya Amin. According to the agreement between the state assembly and your family, the Phraya family can marry multiple wives. This solves the legal problem.

problem, and I have become a member of the Phraya family, which is also good for my future development."

Looking at Lao Phaya, "Now, do you have any questions?"

Lao Phye shook his head in confusion.

Lu Ming stood up and said, "Then you should discuss it with Mr. Phaya. These gold bars will be left here for you, but you must keep them well and don't let others know. It's a sin to possess a treasure!"
