Chapter 916 The battle between the three imperial merchants
"Oh, do you have anything else to do?"
Chu Qianqiu became a little curious when he saw the two family heads asking questions at the same time.
Tangning's eyes immediately widened. Could these two bastards be trying to do something?
"Master Fan." Chai Song took a step back and said quickly.
"No, Master Chai invites you first."
Fan Chengze, the head of the Fan family, also took a step back and said with a smile on his face.
Both sides want the other to speak first and find a way for themselves.
"No, no, no, it's the head of the Fan family who invites you first."
"No, no, no, Master Chai should invite you first."
The two of them stared at each other but refused to speak first.
"If you say [no no no] again, stop talking."
Chu Qianqiu snorted coldly, and Chai Song quickly stepped forward and said:
"Lord Zhongwu, this is what happened."
"The little man has a daughter, called Xingshu, who is seventeen years old. She is very smart and helps to manage the family's account books. She has no leisure time."
"She told Chai today that she wanted to visit Yuzhou."
"Chai took pity on his daughter. She is still in Fengzhou and has never traveled far. I wanted to agree."
"But this Yuzhou is far away and gangsters are everywhere. Even if her family hires an escort from the Fuwei Escort Agency, it can hardly be considered safe."
"I never thought that Master Zhongwu would actually intend to travel to Yuzhou."
"Chai has a gracious request. Can I let my daughter accompany me to Yuzhou?"
Chai Song said with sincerity.
Bastard, you old beast who sells his daughter for glory!
Do you still know how to write the four words "property, justice, integrity and shame"?
You actually presented your act of giving away your daughter in such a grand and high-sounding way, bah!
Tang Ning and Fan Chengze's teeth chattered.
After all, they are the Eight Great Imperial Businessmen and respectable people. How could they give away their daughter?
nonexistent.
If you tell it, it will make people laugh to death.
Xu Guogong arranged his daughter to be with Chu Zhongwu. It was only a relationship between monarch and minister. It was Miss Xu who became Chu Zhongwu's subordinate.
Recently she went on a killing spree in Fengzhou, and the rumors about her have become less and less, and she can no longer laugh out loud.
So Chai Song's method is to follow Lord Zhongwu to Yuzhou, just with a companion on the way.
If both parties come together, it is called mutual love.
So shameless.
Chu Qianqiu felt that she was too sad and that they always misunderstood her.
"Ahem."
"There will be some conflicts in Yuzhou recently. Where will Miss Chai go to play?"
"Maybe the paths are not similar."
"Lord Zhongwu, please be at ease."
"My little girl wants to go to Shuiyun City to meet the female workers of the Liu family, learn the knitting work, and knit clothes for her future husband."
When the head of the Chai family heard that Tang Ning and Fan Chengze were about to bite their teeth, he said with a smile on his face, without any consciousness of selling his daughter for glory.
"Ahem, Chu's fleet is very big."
"If Miss Chai wants to accompany her, Chu has no reason to refuse."
Chu Qianqiu coughed lightly. After all, he would invest a large amount of capital in these three imperial merchants and ask them to set up relevant scientific research institutions and gradually develop into a military-industrial complex.
So under this premise, the Tang family has begun to accept Chu Qianqiu's control, and the Chai family is naturally no exception.
When both parties enter into an alliance, it is natural that there will also be mutual personnel exchanges.
Chu Qianqiu is more powerful, so naturally the Chai family needs help.
"Thank you for your help, sir!" Chai Song took a step back with great satisfaction and glanced at Patriarch Fan and Patriarch Tang.
This kind of villain is extremely shameless!
The head of the Tang family was almost chewing his teeth. Originally, the Tang family was one step ahead and placed Tang Wan'er beside Lord Zhongwu. The relationship between the two parties improved bit by bit. At the same time, according to the news that came yesterday, Tang Wan'er is very likely to have a relationship.
Pregnant.
He was simply overjoyed, not only did it mean that the Tang family had passed the test, but the Tang family was also expected to make further progress in the future.
Under such circumstances, Tangning naturally felt that he should be the boss among the three major imperial merchants.
After all, the Tang family has the strongest combat power and specializes in ordnance.
I didn't expect that Chai Song would play this trick. He was simply careless and lost Jingzhou.
"Then what's going on with Master Fan?"
Chu Qianqiu said with a smile.
Although the head of the Chai family misunderstood his true nature and acted like this.
But Chu Qianqiu has always been broad-minded and decided to put the overall situation first and reluctantly forgive him.
Fan Chengze said slightly embarrassed:
"Lord Zhongwu, it's like this."
"In the past, the prime minister ordered the Fan family to build a [dragon and phoenix sword]. Now the sword body is ready, but there is still one final step left."
"Now that the Prime Minister has abdicated, no one can put the finishing touches on these two spiritual weapons."
"So the Fan family sincerely asks Lord Zhongwu for help."
The sword body of Baobing determines the spiritual imprint they can hold and their future growth.
Just like the [Houde-Carrying Sword] commonly used in Chu Qianqiu's hand, its blade is of good quality, otherwise it would not be able to hold the souls of several emperors.
But its growth potential is very low. Even if Chu Qianqiu rearranges it to a true body-level military phase, it will not be able to advance to the level of a divine weapon.
The Fan family was almost bankrupt, and the [dragon and phoenix swords] built for the emperor's wedding naturally had a martial soul that could accommodate the true body level.
Chu Qianqiu injects the true body-level soul into this set of swords, so that it will have the opportunity to advance to the level of a divine weapon. This will give it the opportunity to see fortune and sacrifice.
With these words of the Fan family leader, he wanted to give this unformed spiritual weapon to Chu Qianqiu.
"Master Fan's wishes have been received by me."
Chu Qianqiu smiled and nodded. Just as he was about to say something, he heard the head of the Tang family jump out.
"Lord Zhongwu, this [dragon and phoenix sword] should belong to Her Majesty the Queen, how can I give it to you again!"
"Master Fan, this is an indecent use of borrowed flowers to offer to Buddha."
It can be said that the head of the Tang family and the head of the Fan family have a grudge.
Although Tang Ning's sixth brother was killed by Chu Qianqiu, the root cause was caused by the competition between the Tang family and the Fan family for the [Exotic Gold] mine.
In other words, this hatred should be recorded on the Fan family.
[I am a decent man, but I didn’t expect these two people to be so cunning.]
【No matter how many plots and tricks they use, at least one must be destroyed.】
[The Fan family still wants to please Master Zhongwu, but it depends on my methods.]
Tangning laughed evilly and stabbed the head of the Fan family again, which made Chu Qianqiu come to his senses.
This [Dragon and Phoenix Swords] was originally a custom-made order from the royal family for the Fan family, but there was a problem with the handover midway, and it is not the Fan family's thing.
Tang Ning's meaning was very clear. This was originally Her Majesty's possessions. How could Her Majesty's possessions be considered as belongings to your Fan family?
What belongs to Her Majesty the Queen belongs to Chu Zhongwu.
You can use the things that Master Zhongwu should have to borrow flowers and offer them to Buddha.
My conscience is so bad!
【You old beast!】
[Why did the Fan family offend you? You actually, you actually...]
Fan Chengze's teeth also creaked.
He wanted to refute, but couldn't say a word.
"Master Tang, don't be too harsh. Master Fan was also confused for a moment and counted Lord Zhongwu's things as his own." Family Master Chai said equally sinisterly.
There is no good relationship among the eight imperial merchants.
I don't mind stabbing you twice if I get the chance.
This made Chu Qianqiu burst into laughter.
"Okay, that's the end of the matter."
"Master Fan really has good intentions, so don't worry about these trivial things."
"Don't spend your energy on things like this."
"Who can make my design drawings and make a good plan?"
"This is the credit, do you understand?"
"Yes, sir."
This time, the eyes of the three imperial merchants were burning with sparks, which made Chu Qianqiu very satisfied.
They have to fight to be competitive.
If you work hard, it's up to you whether Chu Zhongwu can build a new world in the future.
Just when Chu Qianqiu was feeling complacent, a burst of mourning came from his ears.
"Sir, my grandpa died of illness and the jade pendant is also missing."
Xiangbei, these determined little Taoist priests, suddenly knelt down and cried loudly, unable to bear it any longer.
