The study became quiet, Ouyang looked at Dadalia deeply and said nothing.
My mind was running at high speed, reviewing every detail from the moment they met.
The more I think about it, the weirder it becomes. This is obviously not in Zhidong’s interests.
Too many concessions!
In Ouyang's view, as a qualified diplomat, he cannot do things that harm his motherland for the sake of his own interests.
When one's own interests override the interests of one's own country, the other party may be a qualified politician, but he is definitely not a qualified diplomat.
In my memory, Dadalia was very loyal to Queen Solstice, so all this seemed unreasonable.
Ouyang felt that there must be something else in it that he didn't know yet, such as the contract between Liyue and Zhidong that Dadalia just mentioned.
The matter was not a small one, and Ouyang did not have the arrogance to agree to it all. That would have been too stupid.
Professional things should be done by professionals.
Thinking of this, he said to Dadalia: "I still can't agree to your request. I think you should still talk to Ningguang about this matter. But in view of the conditions you just agreed to, I am willing to write a letter now
Give Ningguang to show Zhidong’s sincerity.”
Because Dadalia seemed to be apologizing just now. Although he didn't know whether it was true or not, he understood that the other party was Morax's pawn, and a head-on confrontation would do no good to anyone.
Ouyang didn't want the uncle to come to him because of this, so he also hinted to the other party that he had received an apology.
After hearing this, Dadalia thought for a while and agreed.
"Yes, I, Zhidong, want to help Liyue with great sincerity."
"Okay, are you going to find Ningguang now?"
"Yes."
"Then please wait a moment. After I finish writing the letter, I will ask you to go to Qunyu Pavilion with you."
After speaking, Ouyang took out the letter paper from the table and wrote down some details of the meeting.
Only details are included, and no other suggestions are given.
Ouyang didn't want his suggestions to interfere with Ningguang's decision.
Ouyang really couldn't resolve this matter in one word. Although the authority was sufficient, the asymmetry of information made him feel that this fact was a bit strange.
Let Ning Guang decide.
Thinking about it, she should be able to make the right decision about Liyue.
At the same time, on the other side.
In the Moon Sea Pavilion, Gan Yu is summarizing the news coming from everywhere.
The 800,000 miners in the suburbs of Lisha have almost gathered, and the plan is about to begin.
At this time, Keqing came to her office.
"Gan Yu, the miners should have almost arrived at the outskirts of Lisha, right? This is my new budget plan. You can send it to Ouyang later. If there is no problem, I will set off in the afternoon."
Eh?
Gan Yu, who was busy, raised his head and glanced at Ke Qing, who seemed to be looking at ease, and took the document with some confusion.
"Although the news hasn't come yet, according to the previous arrangement, the miners should have almost arrived. You can actually hand this budget plan directly to Ouyang, he should not be busy now."
"I'm not here to ask about other things, so I'm sorry to trouble you."
Keqing's answer was a little unnatural, but she still tried to change the topic in a normal manner.
"Logistics support should have caught up, right?"
"Don't worry, preparations started two days ago. The supplies have already been sent to Guiliji. By the time you take people to Dihuazhou, it will be ready. The reason why it is so slow is because there are more people now.
The supplies have to be sent to the suburbs of Lisha first, Keqing, you shouldn’t be in such a hurry, right?”
"It's okay, okay, then I'll leave first."
Waving her hand, Keqing turned and left.
In fact, there is nothing to ask, many of them have been explained in previous meetings.
And the reason why she takes such unnecessary steps is actually because she is escaping.
There were some speculations that she subconsciously didn't want to face.
She is a workaholic. When she was doing the budget last night, she realized belatedly that she seemed to have accepted Ouyang Tianda's favor again this time.
During the previous Seven Stars meeting, her thoughts were all on how to solve this crisis, and she didn't have that many ideas.
In addition, she still doesn't understand many aspects of Ouyang's overall strategy, so although her initial focus was on the assigned affairs, she didn't think too much about it.
It wasn't until she started budgeting that she realized what she was going to do.
That was a much larger evidence resource than the renovation of Liyue Port, and Ouyang handed it over to her in an understatement.
Unlike before, this time the favor was so great that she had to think in other directions.
For example, as Ningguang said, there is a possibility that Ouyang likes her.
So, Ouyang really likes me?
Once this thought appears in my mind, I can no longer get rid of it.
Ouyang's face would always appear in her mind from time to time, interrupting her train of thought.
Bits and pieces of the past are also presented one by one.
Because he was drunk, the ridiculous word "wife" came out of his mouth as if he was seeing a ghost.
She, who had always been indifferent, had some different emotions in her heart.
So ashamed of myself!
So although the budget plan should indeed be handed over to Ouyang in person, she still subconsciously avoided it and chose to have Gan Yu hand it over.
She really can't contact Ouyang calmly now. Gu Li
Walking in the sunshine, Keqing put her hands on her lower back, and her ponytail swayed with the unique rhythm.
First, take a closer look. What if the other party doesn’t have that idea?
After Keqing made the decision, the faint smile on her lips was well controlled from spreading.
Being liked by others is always a happy thing.
Even if you are liked by the guy who is considered a jerk, it is the same.
Your mansion, study room.
Dadalia has left.
Guiping also went to Qunyu Pavilion with the letter written by Ouyang.
The study became quiet again.
But soon, Gui'an walked in with the drawn up contract.
"Sir, we are almost done negotiating a new deal with Mondiluc. This is the content of the contract."
"good."
After taking the contract, Ouyang did not choose to read it first, but looked at Gui'an and said clearly: "This trade still requires you to make a trip, you..."
thump--
Before he finished speaking, Gui'an knelt down and cried in tears: "Master, please let me serve you! I don't want to sail away!"
Although he was vaguely mentally prepared, when he actually heard this request, Gui'an still couldn't accept it.
"This voyage is too dangerous. My calves are still trembling when I think about what happened last time. Master, please let my brother go. He used to envy me for managing hundreds of people outside and being so powerful!
You let him go, I don’t want this majesty!”
"Get up first!"
After saying that, when Gui'an didn't listen, Ouyang didn't get angry. He controlled the wheelchair and came to him, trying to help him up first.
Ouyang doesn't like others kneeling to him all the time.
Unfortunately, Gui'an was too determined to get up. He knelt down and took two steps back, kowtowing to Ouyang.
"Master, you can blame me for not being useful, you can punish me, but I am really scared and don't want to sail far away!"
As for that? Just a few little thieves?
Frowning and looking at Gui'an who was kneeling and kowtowing, Ouyang thought for a while and said.
"You are on a new route this time, and there are guards on Diluc's side, so you don't have to be so stressed."
With that said, seeing that Gui'an still looked unmoved, Ouyang said angrily: "Okay, get up! I promise you that you and Guiping will take turns going to sea in the future, but this time, you will go first!"
"
He knew that Gui'an was really timid, but someone had to take care of things.
It's not that he really had to do it. In fact, Ouyang could have handed over all the maritime trade business of your family to Beidou, but he did not do so.
On the one hand, I need to know some outside intelligence through people at home, and on the other hand, I don't want to restrict Beidou's freedom.
They are brothers, not superiors and subordinates.
Fortunately, after hearing this, Gui'an's expression changed seamlessly and he agreed with a smile.
"Hey, thank you, master! Thank you, master!"
"Can you get up now?"
"Okay, thank you for your kindness! Get up now."
After saying that, Gui'an kowtowed again before getting up.
Although he still had to sail far away, he knew that it would be a mercy to allow the master to take this step back.
He was just a servant, and he had no part in negotiating terms. Now it was the best outcome. Although he was still scared to death, at least half of the risk had been shared, right?
He didn't think there was anything wrong with his dog-legged appearance.
Your family is a family that lives on Yujingtai. Ouyang's usual behavior has been very good to the servants at home, otherwise he wouldn't have dared to ask for it even if he had the courage to do so.
"Master, please read the contents of the contract first. Eze is still waiting in the side hall."
Rolling his eyes at Gui'an, Ouyang returned to his desk, read the contents of the contract, and signed his name when he saw that there were no problems.
He handed the contract to Gui'an. When the other party took it, Ouyang looked at him and said, "Hurry up and don't waste time on the playground and arena built in the school!"
"No, I've been watching!"
"Go ahead."
After Gui'an went out, Ouyang leaned on the back of his chair and looked at the sunshine outside the window, his expression darkening.
He doesn't mind Gui'an's disobedience. Everyone has their own ambitions and their psychological defenses are different.
It is normal for Gui'an to be afraid after experiencing the treasure-stealing group incident and not want to sail.
Thanks to the education he received in his previous life, Ouyang doesn't like to force others to do things they don't want to do. Just like Beidou, he always regards the other person as a good brother and respects her choice very much.
There is also an equal cooperative relationship between the two, and Ouyang has never considered controlling the other.
The same goes for Xue Lian, she is a very sensitive person, so Ouyang, who understands this, respects the personality of the other party very much, does not force her, gives her a choice, and gives her freedom.
Let her get out of the predicament in her heart, calmly accept the suffering she suffered before, and welcome a new life.
But through the incident in Gui'an, he understood that there were still too few people in his family.
He really needs to find some people and organize a team around him.
It's just that I still don't have the slightest clue as to the candidate.
Ouyang felt a hint of bitterness in his heart when he thought that he had wanted to set up an intelligence network before.
It’s even harder to find a candidate for the intelligence chief!
