The largest hall of Tianxiahui in Nanliang is Fuyuan Building, and the owner of the building is Hua Yiyi.
In the past, Hua Yiyi stayed at Fuyuan Building.
Later, Ji Ba asked Hua Yiyi to build the Crystal Pavilion, which became the most luxurious place in Jinling City.
Hua Yiyi also liked to sit upstairs and watch the river view, so she moved to Crystal Pavilion, and Fuyuan Building became a pure hall.
Hua Yiyi was sitting on the fifth floor of the Crystal Pavilion, looking at the river to the north and Jinling City to the south, with a cup of ice tea in her hand, feeling very comfortable.
Everything on the fifth floor of Crystal Pavilion is good, except that it is hot.
Direct sunlight makes the temperature inside very high during the day.
Fortunately, the windows can be opened, the whistling river breeze blows in, and coupled with a cup of ice tea, Hua Yiyi does not feel uncomfortable.
"Master, the guests have arrived downstairs."
A tall woman wearing an orange dress walked in. ??
This woman wears a gold-medium bun and doesn't wear any gold or silver jewelry. She is not pretty. She is a very smart and capable working woman.
This woman is Hua Yiyi's deputy, named Xiang Nanchun.
"Bring him up."
Hua Yiyi said lightly.
Xiang Nanchun immediately went down to pick them up, and at the same time ordered the maid to prepare fruits, tea and snacks.
When meeting guests, you must be polite.
Xiang Nanchun walked to the third floor and saw a eunuch walking up with two young eunuchs.
"Mr. Bell."
The person who came was none other than the eunuch Zhong Gui.
"Xiang, deputy host, I haven't seen you for a long time. She looks even more beautiful."
Zhong Gui smiled and said hello.
Xiang Nanchun said with a smile: "There are three thousand beauties in the palace, how can they be so beautiful in the eyes of my father-in-law?"
Zhong Gui had already walked up and followed Xiang Nanchun upstairs.
"The women in the palace are just superficial. There are very few women in the world who are as smart and capable as Deputy Host Xiang."
Xiang Nanchun smiled and greeted Zhong Gui on the fifth floor.
When I walked in, I saw Hua Yiyi sitting there. She didn't get up to greet her, but just said with a smile: "Master Manager, please take a seat."
Zhong Gui didn't mind, he smiled across from Hua Yiyi sit down.
The maid poured the tea, and Xiang Nanchun asked the others to leave.
Zhong Gui was sitting in the Crystal Pavilion, looking around at the scenery, blowing the river breeze, and praised: "It is indeed a place where a lot of money is spent. If the landlord hadn't invited me, I would never be able to come here in my life."
Although Zhong Gui was Li Chengdao's personal eunuch and had great power, he had no money in his pocket.
He can't afford a high-cost place like Crystal Pavilion.
Just like civil servants in later generations, even if they reach the prefect level, their legal income is only 300,000 yuan a year.
For those high-consumption occasions, you simply can’t afford to pay yourself.
But being in a high position, holding great power, and being itchy, corruption comes about through power-for-money transactions.
Zhong Gui was in this situation, but he didn't dare to use the power in his hands because Li Chengdao was too powerful.
If Zhong Gui dares to wield power under the banner of Li Chengdao, his death is not far away.
"The steward has nothing to do with his sleeves, it's just that he doesn't want to come."
"If the steward is willing to reward you, I, the Crystal Pavilion, will open the door to welcome you."
Hua Yiyi's words were both flattery and secretly trying to win over Zhong Gui.
Zhong Gui naturally knew what Hua Yiyi meant, but he did not answer because he did not dare to accept Hua Yiyi's bribe.
"I'm not destined to accept it, just take a look."
Zhong Gui chuckled.
Hua Yiyi saw that Zhong Gui refused to get on the boat, so she didn't say much.
In the transaction of power and money, one must be willing to fight and the other to suffer. This kind of thing cannot be forced.
"It's because my Crystal Pavilion is too crude, and the manager doesn't like it."
Hua Yiyi smiled and changed the subject, not talking about it anymore.
"I invited my father-in-law here today because I want to ask about Wolong Valley."
Hua Yiyi spoke calmly.
Hua Yiyi came to Zhong Gui today to discuss the purchase of Wolong Valley.
Zhong Gui also knew that Hua Yiyi wanted to talk
What.
Zhong Gui's face was as usual, he was still smiling, but he was already scolding in his heart.
In order to welcome the arrival of President Ji Ba, the Tianxiahui actually burned down the Wolong Valley palace. It was really audacious and did not take Li Chengdao into consideration at all.
"I mentioned it to the Minister of Industry last time, but the Minister of Industry rejected it flatly, saying that Wolong Valley is where the palace of the superior is located and cannot be sold."
"Now that Wolong Valley is flooded and the palace is gone, I think we can take action, right?"
Hua Yiyi drank tea and spoke calmly, as if nothing happened.
I set the fire by myself, and I said it myself without any guilt.
The Tianxiahui set fire to not only the palace, but also dozens of palace maids and eunuchs.
Hua Yiyi didn't take it seriously at all, considering human life so carelessly.
"Wolong Valley is the place where the superiors spent their summer vacation, and it is the ancestral property. The palace was also built by the Supreme Emperor." ??
"Although the palace was burned down, the superior wanted to rebuild it, and Wolong Valley cannot be sold."
Zhong Gui smiled and declined.
Hua Yiyi smiled and said, "Is the manager dissatisfied with us?"
Zhong Gui frowned slightly and said with a dry smile: "How could I be dissatisfied with Tianxiahui? I live in the palace, accompanying the superiors, and have nothing to do with your society."
This is true. Zhong Gui is only ordered to handle matters within the palace.
Those outside the palace are also ministers of the DPRK and important military and political affairs, and have almost no dealings with the Tianxiahui.
Hua Yiyi smiled and said: "Since the manager has no objection to our world, why do you reject it so much?"
Zhong Gui chuckled and said: "This is the intention of the superior. How can I dare to make the decision?"
Hua Yiyi still had a smile on her face, but her tone became colder.
"Father-in-law, the superiors clearly said that you can sell it for a good price."
"But you said that Wolong Valley is our ancestral property and cannot be sold. Aren't you dissatisfied with our world?"
The smile on Zhong Gui's face froze.
Hua Yiyi actually knew exactly what Li Chengdao said. Tianxiahui monitored Li Chengdao.
If it had been anyone else, Zhong Gui would have become violent and ordered the soldiers to take the person.
But the person in front of him was the landlord of Tianxiahui, so Zhong Gui could only suppress the anger in his heart.
"My father-in-law stopped talking?"
Hua Yiyi exposed Zhong Gui's lie and looked at Zhong Gui with a mocking look.
Zhong Gui's voice was dry and cold, and he said: "This matter is very important, and I can't make the decision."
Hua Yiyi immediately asked: "Then who can make the decision? Li Jiye or Xuan Jizi?"
Zhong Gui said: "In Daliang, only the superiors can make the decision."
Hua Yiyi laughed twice and said: "But if the superior doesn't see me, what should I do about this?"
Zhong Gui's face moved and he said, "I don't know then. In the final analysis, I'm just a slave."
Hua Yiyi didn't let go when she saw Zhong Gui, and she had no better way.
After all, Zhong Gui is just a eunuch, and this is true.
"Since my father-in-law can't be the master, that's all."
"Our president will be arriving in Jinling in the next two days, I believe you all know that."
"At that time, the president will personally talk to the superiors and talk about the last war."
"Both Western Xia and Eastern Zhou are now under the control of our Tianxiahui, and the superiors should be very interested in this."
Hua Yiyi is a threat, and Zhong Gui naturally understands it.
The Tianxiahui completely controlled Xixia, and the Eastern Zhou Dynasty also bowed to the Tianxiahui. They were now very powerful.
During these times, Zhong Gui always felt a little strange, or a little confused.
Why would Long Chen be willing to be manipulated by the world?
Could it be that Long Chen couldn't defeat Tianxiahui?
Zhong Gui thought that with Long Chen in charge of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, the Tianxiahui would not be able to completely control the Eastern Zhou Dynasty.
Now it seems that Zhong Gui overestimated Long Chen's ability.
"That's a matter for the president and the superiors. I, an old slave, don't dare to say anything."
