As night fell, Luther finally arrived at Yangxin City.
A sudden large-scale cooling swept across the entire Sinnoh, and Yangxin City in the south did not escape.
But even so, there was no need for Luther to continue to be fully armed when flying in the northern region of Sinnoh. After landing, he couldn't help but take off one piece of clothing to loosen up his body.
Facing the strong cold wind and constantly rushing on the road, no matter how good his physical condition is, Luther must let the Qixi Blue Bird rest for a while.
The Qixi Blue Bird spread its wings and waved, indicating that it was still OK, but Luther didn't care, put it back in the ball, and handed it to the people at the Elf Center for inspection.
Luther sent a message on his mobile phone and sat quietly in the elf center waiting.
After a while, a silver-white car stopped at the entrance of the Elf Center. The driver in a black suit found Luther, who was sitting on a chair with his eyes closed, and respectfully invited him into the car.
The place the vehicle was heading to was the Soramu family's mansion on the outskirts of Yangxin City.
After entering the signal area, Luther received a call from Kongmu Che.
In the end, Kong Muyuan still failed to get things done. By the time he hoped to find Luther through Wuye, Luther had already left Black Gold City.
It was no longer possible to apologize in person. Kong Muyuan knew that this kind of thing could not be done perfunctorily, nor could he lie, so he could only bite the bullet and report the news to Kong Mu Tetsu.
Kongmu Che looked at the numbers circled in red on the calendar and finally chose to dial Tong De's phone number in person.
Luther didn't want to meet Kongmu Che at this time, but after thinking about it, he finally chose to accept the invitation.
After being led into the hall by the butler, Luther found that all the servants had been dismissed, and wine and hot food had been placed on the table.
Kongmu Te has carefully understood Luther's habits, and one of the most distinctive ones is that he likes to talk while eating.
When Kong Muche invites people to dinner, he usually just eats and doesn't talk too much at the dinner table. He doesn't quite understand Luther's habit, but he is willing to cooperate.
Xiaoyin and the others were taken care of by servants, while Gardevoir stayed with Luther and ate with Luther. For this reason, Kongmu Te had to ask someone to bring another set of tableware.
Wine is good wine. After all, apart from the fruit juice card, the other card that Kongmu Tetsu holds firmly in the ranks of the top families in Sinnoh is wine.
Luther didn't drink much. After quickly eating something to fill his stomach, he asked straight to the point: "I'm here? Have you eaten too? It's time to talk about things."
Kongmu Che said on the phone that he needed to apologize for something, and Luther wanted to know what it was.
Since Luther went straight to the topic, Toru Kongmu didn't make any detours, and explained clearly the matters related to Black Gold City and Kiriha.
"The people in the family are not doing their job well, and I apologize to you."
Luther couldn't laugh or cry? He also wanted to check the other party's background after returning to the island, but it turned out that it was someone from the Kongmu family who had caused trouble for a long time.
Although the relationship between Mai and Toru Kongmu is still tense, she did say "give each other some time" after all. It doesn't really mean that the relationship has been severed.
Therefore, Luther quickly put the matter out of his mind and expressed his indifferent attitude with a smile.
After ignoring what happened in Black Gold City, the two fell into a state of having nothing to say again.
Luther ate the dishes handed over by Gardevoir and drank wine slowly to relax from the fatigue of the journey.
Luther is very calm? He doesn’t believe that Kong Muche personally contacted him and came to his home to meet him just to apologize. This is a lot of trouble.
"Mai, it's my birthday tomorrow." Kongmu Tetsu broke the silence.
"Yeah." Luther's response was flat.
"More than a week ago, I sent someone to the island to deliver gifts, but they were blocked by a person named Mira. I couldn't even see Mai's face."
Luther was stunned? He was on the island more than a week ago, but he had no idea about this matter.
But then he understood Mira's thoughts.
Mira is a thoughtful person? What is Mai's attitude towards the Soramu family that even Luther rarely mentioned? So she learned that it was someone from the Soramu family who was visiting, so she simply blocked it.
I thought his next sentence was to ask Luther to help deliver the gift to Mai? But that was not the case.
Luther was somewhat unexpected by Kongmu Che's words.
"Your wedding should be next year, right?"
A very jumpy conversation? One second you were still talking about gifts? The next second it was Luther and Mai’s wedding.
Kongmu Che stared at Luther closely, his eyes were very complicated.
Kongmu Tetsu didn't doubt Mai's vision. When she left home, he asked himself to treat her as an adult.
Mai began to make her own decisions and began to show her own charm.
Strong personal charisma.
Luther is nominally the real island owner of Qidao, but Mai is the only one who has shown up.
In the few interviews she had, Mai handled them flawlessly, and she deftly resolved all kinds of tricky questions.
There currently appear to be four projects for Qidao.
One is the island’s specialty.
Including but not limited to unique honey and a large number of tree fruits.
According to the information provided by the sailing boatmen, the areas where a large number of fruit trees are planted on Qidao are the west and north areas, the southern area is slightly less, and there is still no movement in the eastern area.
According to the data on fruit trees sold on the market this fall, this amount of income is not much, but it can ensure that the balance of payments is close to balance. Maintaining this status, the money spent on buying fruit trees can be recovered soon.
The premise is that the people on the island do not have the hobby of spending money randomly and building large-scale construction projects.
The second is the personal training project started by Mira and Huoyan.
This personal training project is not only profitable, it is the bridge that Qidao maintains contact with the outside world and the information bridgehead for the top people in Sinnoh.
Mira is simply a master of both sides. With her superb appearance and excellent personality, she can not only help Qidao obtain first-hand information about local enterprises and families in Sinnoh, but also help Qidao maintain a strong sense of presence.
.
Kongmu Che didn't collect much information about Huoyan because Luther recalled her to the island inexplicably and gave all her resources to Mira.
When Kongmu Che thought something was wrong with Huo Yan and was abandoned by Luther, Huo Yan came out again, but this time she began to cooperate with Mira and no longer dealt with the resources she got separately.
If it weren't for the businessman's reserve, Kongmu Che would have wanted to ask Luther what method he used to get these two incompatible people to work closely together.
The third input is somewhat special.
Whether it is Huoyan or Mira, Luther's contacts with them all have a traceable context, and Kongmu Che's information network has played a significant role.
How did Musashi and Kojiro, former members of Team Rocket and wanted criminals of the alliance, get together with Sushima?
What's even weirder is that they seem to have the trust of Luther and Mai.
The store they were doing business in Binhai City was negotiated with Mai personally after the Rockets found it.
Later, Mai went there in person no less than three times. Each time, she brought plenty of gifts and had long conversations.
It is said that these two people also received invitations to Qidao's New Year's party. Kongmu Tetsu couldn't figure out how these two people did it.
The invitation letter to the New Year's party on Qidao means that you can communicate closely with the big shots on Qidao, get closer to each other, and find out who else has settled on Qidao besides Sirona, Yang Bai, and Kikuno.
However, these two people did not go!
Kongmu Tetsuto was dumbfounded. During the entire New Year period, the two of them had been busy in Binhai City and had no intention of returning to Qidao.
It was only after the year that Kong Mu Te realized how powerful these two people were.
Seizing the trend in the Galar region, I made money from several short-term transactions in a row.
It sounds simple, but putting it into practice is another story entirely.
These two people seem to know exactly when and how to make money, and they always leave with a lot of money before the market becomes bloated.
Kongmu Tetsu took it for granted that the reason these two people were willing to contribute to Qidao was Mai's unique vision.
It's not that he underestimates Luther, but Luther's business acumen is indeed not as good as Mai's. This can be seen from the fact that he rarely handles complex projects personally.
After being called back to Qidao once by Mai, the duo sold their store in Binhai City and never appeared again.
Kongmu Teru wanted to know where Mai planned to let these two business geniuses go and what their next plan was.
The fourth input item was also very special. Kongmu Te was confused for a while after hearing the report from his subordinates.
Mai contacted a small animation studio and created a wonderful work in which elves and humans can transform into special forms by wearing a belt.
After deciding on the project, the production team tentatively named the work Elf Knight and intended to make it into a series.
Kongmu Tetsu was completely confused by Mai's investment. He saw some scrap drafts of elf transformation through his connections, and saw the trailer at the preview screening at the public exhibition in Yangxin City.
A person puts on a belt and transforms, and then fights passionately with a weirdo who has also transformed.
After the elf transforms, he releases a variety of cool skills to defeat his opponents.
No matter how you look at it, you think it’s something for children. How many people would be willing to pay for it?
Kongmu Tetsu was hit in the head by the reaction at the scene.
The small workshop Mai invested was surrounded by young people participating in the exhibition, and they all asked when it would be scheduled to be broadcast.
Even before the show started, people were already asking whether the belt could be released and whether it would have sound effects.
"I can't keep up with the times?" Kongmu Che was among the crowd, but felt that the laughter and noise around him were far away from him.
He really didn't find this thing interesting at all, but the market's feedback to him was indeed so direct.
Young people really do this.
He used his own thoughts to speculate on the success or failure of Mai's investment. Once he couldn't understand Mai's operation at all, and once he was defeated by Mai's sense of the market.
This feeling is very bitter.
Mai was supposed to be the next generation head of the Soramu family who had high hopes. The abilities she has shown now can completely bring the Soramu family to another level.
But now Mai is no longer from the Soramu family.
Kongmu Che let out a long sigh and revealed his true intention of inviting Luther to the appointment this time.
