The Fairman Plaza Hotel Antiguara Capital is one of the most luxurious hotels in Antiguara.
In the reception room of the third-floor business center, Lu Ming sat silently.
I said I wanted to have a good rest for a few days, but in the morning I just had some porridge at the Anxi Prince's House and chatted with a few women. In the afternoon, I went back to Antiguala because I had other matters that needed to be dealt with.
Opposite, a fat and fat senior tax officer named Motena, who is the deputy director of the state tax bureau, is talking about the Emerald City State being issued a free trade license by the governor. In fact, it conflicts with the tax laws of the state.
The tax bureau has appealed to the High Court, requesting the court to rule that the trade license is invalid.
The official language of Antiguara is the common Western language, which is Grifenian. Lu Ming can understand what he says.
The meeting between the two was a confidential one, and there were only two people in the empty conference room, Lu Ming and him.
The language of Motena is getting more and more intense.
"If the court rules that the license is invalid, Lee, we will charge your island all taxes due for the past three years, including late fees!"
Lu Ming frowned and was about to speak when there was a gentle knock on the door.
Someone outside helped open the door of the conference room, and a Western man with brown curly hair and a hooked nose walked in. Judging by his face, he was from Sonia.
"Why are you so excited? I heard you guys arguing outside!" the hook-nosed man smiled.
The Sonnians have their own language, but the lingua franca of all groups in the West is Grifonian.
The hook-nosed man smiled at Lu Ming and nodded, "You are the respected Li Piye, right? My dear, Walter, this is my business card." He handed over a small gold-gilded business card with both hands.
Lu Ming took it and glanced at it, "Walter Schmidt, representative director of Punk Trading Company."
"Punk Trading" is the largest foreign trading company in Sonia. Today, it mainly operates in the Western Region. The original free city-state structure of the Western Region has undergone earth-shaking changes due to the entry of "Punk Trading". "Punk Trading" supports more than a dozen
The alliance of city-states is gradually becoming the dominant force in the Western Region, and is also helping the "Punk Trade" to plunder the resources of the Western Region, especially oil.
Schmidt patted Motena on the shoulder, looking very familiar, and smiled: "You are so excited!"
After sitting down, Schmidt continued to say to Motena: "My old friend, can I tell you what I think?"
Motena angrily picked up the cup and drank coffee.
Schmidt smiled at Lu Ming and said, "Is that okay?"
Lu Ming nodded: "If Mr. Schmidt has any suggestions, it's okay to say so."
"Thank you!" Schmidt smiled and turned to Motena, "Old friend, let me just say one thing, does the Emerald City State have a great promotion effect on the economy of your Antiguara inland sea? Laws and regulations still need to be
Serving the citizens. Based on this, I actually have a hunch that the High Court is very likely to reject your appeal. What's more, even if the High Court rules that Emerald Island's free trade license is invalid, this will have a negative impact on the inland economy.
It’s a heavy blow, and when the time comes, all of us will be losers.”
Schmidt looked at Lu Ming, "Of course, Mr. Phraye, the Emerald City State's management is chaotic and there are a lot of underground illegal transactions. I think you can't deny this. I think the Emerald City State should reorganize its executive committee.
, strictly manage the trade on the island. In this case, the state tax bureau and other departments will probably not act like cutting off their own hands, which will hurt both parties. What do you think?"
Lu Ming smiled: "Mr. Schmidt, do you want to invest in Emerald Island?"
Schmidt smiled slightly: "To be honest with Mr. Phaya, I have this consideration, but I still have to go and investigate first."
Motena was silent and finally said: "Mr. Schmidt, if you can invest in Emerald Island, I think we will be more relieved. The trading company you represent has an excellent reputation. We also believe that Punk Trading will not
Doing illegal business locally."
Lu Ming looked at the two of them with a smile, picked up the tea cup and took a slow sip.
…
The moon hole bed has yellow curtains hanging on both sides of the bed hole.
Despite his status as "Section Chief Wang", Lu Ming still removed the art of transformation and lay down comfortably.
I just took a hot bath, and I feel like I can wash away my fatigue in this place of cultivation.
However, as he thought about Schmidt and the punk trade he met in the afternoon, Lu Ming's eyes flashed with a hint of coldness.
Western Region...
He has an oil field of his own, and Joseph Soros gave two more oil fields as gifts. Moreover, these three oil fields are very large.
Looking at the changes in the city-states in the Western Regions, Punk Trading will naturally not let go of Soros's two oil fields. Even its own oil fields in Bad City, Punk Trading will find a way to swallow them up sooner or later.
Although he sent people to operate in the Western Region, because his homeland was extremely far away from the Western Region, and he did not originally want to break the balance of the many city-states in the Western Region, the influence was far less than the rapid expansion of the punk trade that later entered the Western Region.
In the Western Region, it seems urgent to curb the expansion of Sonia influence.
Then he shook his head, he really didn't think about those things here, after all, he didn't have a few days of leisure time left.
Patting your belly feels very comfortable. Taking a bath here will wash away the fatigue of other bodies. The same is true for eating. Eating something in any body will satisfy the hunger of all bodies.
This is mysterious and mysterious, and now I can’t help but believe it.
In fact, it is probably the same as the observed quantum entanglement. It is originally a phenomenon that humans can only observe in the mysterious world.
In essence, I am actually one body now, but I am in a higher dimension, eliminating the sense of space. From the three-dimensional world, I am four bodies, appearing in different regions at the same time.
While I was thinking about it, I heard something sound outside.
"Who?" Lu Ming asked.
"It's my concubine, Xiying..." the delicate and timid soft and waxy oriole cried outside.
"Huh? Oh, come in!" Lu Ming then realized that after breakfast, he once asked Zou to come to his room in the evening and went to Antiguala by himself, forgetting about it.
The door creaked slightly, and soft footsteps came in. After hearing the movement, the door was closed again.
Then Mrs. Zou walked in cautiously, stood in front of Lu Ming's bed, and whispered: "Master, I don't know why you call me a concubine. My monthly expenses are more than Wan Jun..."
She wore a red skirt, light green panties, orioles and snow gauze covering her delicate ankles, a pair of pointed embroidered shoes looming, and she was wearing a charming little concubine.
Lu Ming waved his hand: "I'm not telling you this, Xiying, who else is there in your family?" Seeing Zou's originally red face turn pale, Lu Ming smiled and said: "I didn't mean to send you home.
, I just think, I have been fighting everywhere, and now this home has finally stabilized for the time being. It is a place where I can recuperate and understand the people's sentiments. If you have any relatives, you can take over and make a living in Anxi City, so that you will not be lonely.
Unreliable."
Mrs. Zou lowered her head and whispered: "I have lost contact with my family a long time ago..."
Lu Ming nodded: "Okay, I'll go back and find someone to help you find..." But he saw that Zou's little body seemed to be trembling, and her snow-white face was slightly flushed. He immediately understood that he had been here for a while, and it was freezing outside.
, her pretty face turned red because of the wind, the northwest wind was strong, and it would still be quite cold at night if she wore thin clothes.
"You've been here for a while!" Lu Ming patted the head of the bed, "Looking at how cold you are, come and sit here."
"Ah, how dare I..." Ms. Zou was startled, "I just need to stand and answer!"
Lu Ming was helpless: "You didn't obey even when I asked you to sit up?"
"Yes, if Sister Bai asks, I will say that you asked me to do so. It's not that I have no rules..." Zou said in a low voice.
Lu Ming was angry and funny. He thought to himself that after a few years, you will be considered useless and you will have forgotten all your livelihood skills. How can you still be such a considerate little beauty? You are too dull. You have been raised by yourself for several years and you are completely useless.
.
"Well, that's what I said!" Lu Ming shook his head.
Mrs. Zou then came to the bed and carefully sat on the edge of the bed, far away from Lu Ming, for fear of annoying the head of the family.
Lu Ming sighed inwardly. In fact, he could see that her life was not easy. She was very cautious in everything she said and did, fearing that she would be kicked out if she made the slightest mistake.
So even though she called her at night, she definitely didn't think that she would have any thoughts about her. After all, it had been several years since she had treated her without any pretense, and today was even the only time the two of them had a private conversation in several years.
In fact, I really just wanted to chat with her, ask about her family situation, help her bring her family over, and go away her worries.
But now looking at her pitiful condition, I couldn't help but feel pity in my heart. I stretched out my hand and gently held her delicate hand. I couldn't help but shake my head: "This little hand is so cold..."
Zou's delicate body trembled, and she looked at Lu Ming with fear on her face. Her beautiful eyes were full of panic, and she said anxiously: "I deserve to die! I deserve to die! I knew that I was cold, so I didn't dare to approach His Highness..."
"I was so scared that I almost cried. My little hands were trembling, as if I was afraid that Lu Ming would chop my hand off, but no matter what, I didn't dare to take my hand out from the master's hand.
Lu Ming was holding his cold little hand comfortably, but it was extremely smooth and soft as if there were no bones. He held it in his hand and wanted to ravage it hard. Moreover, his white wrist was wearing an emerald jade ring and was painted with
Kodan's alluring red nails are an excellent pleasure to touch and sight.
Lu Ming was speechless for a moment when he suddenly saw Mrs. Zou in such a frightened state, but the cowardly appearance of this beautiful little concubine aroused the man's desire even more.
Lu Ming patted his chest and said softly: "Come on, come up, I'll help you keep warm..." His voice was trembling slightly, and his heart was even hotter.
"I don't dare..." Ms. Zou's face changed color.
"What?" Lu Ming was stunned.
"Your Highness, Your Highness is a noble, how dare you have a concubine on Your Highness? I heard, I heard it is a capital offense..." Zou may not realize anything at all now, all she can think about is not to make any mistakes to avoid being punished.
, especially since the head of the family is actually the emperor of the Northern Territory.
Lu Ming didn't know whether to laugh or cry, so he sat up, leaned on the couch pillow, and said with a smile: "Is this okay? Come here!"
Xin said that if the cats and dogs raised at home have a strong sense of class and their owners are lying down, they will not dare to hold them and will try to run away, because that is a serious violation of the hierarchy. This Zou family,
It’s also the same thing.
Zou, who was originally in a state of panic, finally seemed to wake up and looked blankly at Lu Ming, who was smiling at him.
"You want me to go down and hug you?" Lu Ming gestured to get up.
"No, no... my concubine deserves to die... deserves to die..." Madam Zou hurriedly took off her embroidered shoes. She took them off several times before they fell to the ground. She quickly picked up the snow-white wet towel on the wooden table next to the bed and wiped her delicate hands.
.
Lu Ming pulled her pink arm lightly, then took her into his arms and said with a smile: "It's not that important... You smell good. Didn't you just take a bath?"
The warm fragrance of nephrite made Lu Ming feel that the softness and smoothness of the suet-like skin of the little beauty in his arms was like a cat's paw tickling the heart of someone who was teasing her even through her clothes.
He couldn't help but kiss her pretty face gently, and said with a smile: "You are so beautiful, and I like you too, but the current situation is tense..."
Zou finally knew what was going to happen. She was flattered for a moment, her whole body trembled, and her heart was about to explode with joy. Her whole body was limp and limp in Lu Ming's arms. She wanted to say something, but she just shed tears.
"Let me see your little feet..." Lu Ming whispered next to her snow-white ear beads.
In fact, there are no feelings between men and women in my heart, the most is pity, but the more so, the more intense the feeling of satisfaction of possessing the beautiful concubine in front of me.
"Yes, yes..." Ms. Zou was like a docile and obedient little sheep. Although she was extremely shy, she hurriedly stretched out her slender hands to untie the bow-knotted snow rope tied to her beautiful ankles in her beautiful stockings. However, her slender hands shook under her nervousness.
It kept going and I couldn't succeed for a while.
She was anxious and scared, and said in a trembling voice: "Concubine, concubine, I deserve to die..." But the more nervous she became, the harder it was to untie her.
Lu Ming smiled and pulled it off, and the stockings were removed, revealing a charming and delicate foot that could dominate the frost and snow. Lu Ming held it with his big hand.
Zou's whole body was trembling like chaff, she was extremely happy and ashamed, and she was even more nervous and frightened, fearing that she would not be able to please this powerful man who had taken care of her for many years and was so kind to her.
Moreover, this man is really His Majesty the Emperor of the Northern Territory. Being played with by him makes me feel extremely strange, with a huge sense of satisfaction and glory. Every skin he touches seems to be immediately superior to others, and I feel even more insignificant. Why?
Would there be such an honor? As I trembled, waves of indescribable joy rushed to my head.
Suddenly, Mrs. Zou let out a cry and fainted in Lu Ming's arms. I don't know if it was because of nervousness or something else, but her whole body was still shaking while she was fainting.
Lu Ming was stunned, then laughed dumbly.
Slowly sitting up, looking at the beauty in his arms, and sighing softly, he seemed to have really changed. Probably, he would never be able to return to his previous state of mind, but let everything take its course.
