Settlement

Under normal circumstances, Hua Hong would stay in the previous pawn shop named Chang'an to handle official duties, but recently he has been staying here Tian'an Main Headquarters.

At the banquet, Prime Minister's Mansion's senior management and staff from all walks of life formulated development policies for the next three years. Hua Hong, as the president of Tian'an Chamber of Commerce, needs this old man to meet with people from all parties these days to coordinate the industry and implement those development policies.

Therefore, after bringing Little White to the 19th floor, Xu Yuan did not go directly to Hua Hong, but first went to a waiting living room nearby.

Through the induction of the array arranged by Tian'an Main Headquarters, Hua Hong is currently meeting with several big shopkeepers at the state level. It seems that they are arranging work, so it is best not to disturb them.

Soul Key opens the way, smooth journey.

Although the old man Hua Hong is very picky, all the materials used in Tian'an Main Headquarters are luxurious and luxurious.

The waiting room is more than ten feet square, and its interior furnishings, pavilions, stools, pavilions, and soft couches and tea tables are all made of golden wood, whose texture and color are all of the finest quality.

As soon as he entered the room, Xu Yuan casually found a soft couch to lie on his side and rest. Bai Muxi followed Xu Yuan, but did not sit down. Instead, he knelt down at Xu Yuan's feet. He raised his hand slightly and took off his shoes gently.

Sensing the touch at his feet, Xu Yuan looked at the seductive kneeling Little White with some surprise.

Most of the wealthy families in Great Yan have servants to take care of them, such as dressing, tying their hair, dressing and washing their hair at night and in the morning.

Don't ask why you don't do it yourself, just ask because of the "sense of ritual". You must know that in some farm families, after the men return home, the women of the family will take care of them.

However, since Prime Minister's Mansion is not allowed to enter the inner courtyard, no matter in the past life or in this life, Xu Yuan has never been very accustomed to this feeling of being served by others.

He wanted to refuse, but after the thought flashed through his mind, Xu Yuan still half-closed his eyes and acquiesced.

However, after ten breaths, Xu Yuan opened his eyes, staring at the boots that were still firmly on his feet for a few breaths, and couldn't help but feel a sense of humor in his heart.

After ten minutes of tinkering, I didn't even untie my bootlaces.

There is a kind of beauty that Chu men can't understand bra.

"."

Realizing the sight, Little White took his hand away and looked eagerly at Xu Yuan.

Little White is actually very familiar with her movements, and she obviously made up for her previous duties as a maid, but the problem is that Xu Yuan's boots are not ordinary objects.

In order to meet the needs of combat, the cultivator's boots are extremely cumbersome in terms of materials and binding method, not to mention that his pair were custom-made by Institute of Investigation.

Thinking about it, Xu Yuan waved his hand towards her:

"Forget it, don't take it off. It will be troublesome to put it on after taking it off for a while."

The purple veil swayed in the wind, Bai Muxi bit her lip.

In the young master's life, she appeared too late, and people's hearts are so big that they can only hold a few people.

However, the beauties around the young master are all very strong-willed, and the silent gentleness and delicacy that moisturizes things should be able to open a hole in the young master's heart, but now.

Although he felt annoyed in his heart, after hearing what Xu Yuan said, Bai Muxi had no choice but to give up. He nodded in despair, then swayed to look at the side room, and took a few incense from the formation freezer there.

Array-patterned freezers are not a rare item. They have become popular among ordinary wealthy people more than ten years ago.

Many noble people like to place one in the reception room of their home, where they can chill some citron fruits and vegetables and drink sweet tea to entertain their guests.

She returned to the soft couch and knelt down, took out the citron fruit plate, and poured a glass of purple wine. Bai Muxi wanted to feed her, but as soon as she made this move, Xu Yuan directly reached out and held her slender wrist, with a hint of helplessness in her tone:

"Where did you learn this?"

Bai Muxi blinked and looked at the man in front of him carefully. Seeing that he didn't mean to be angry, he said softly:

"From the etiquette documents in the mansion."

Xu Yuan sat up from the soft couch, took the wine glass from Little White's hand, drank it all in one gulp, and said:

"I knew it was like this. With the action you just made, the wine would be spilled on me, and I would be confused on paper. If you have time, go find Lou Ji and let her teach you."

Hearing the words Lou Ji, a trace of fear clearly flashed in Bai Muxi's eyes.

She was a little afraid to go to Lou Ji alone.

Although he has been bullied, Bai Muxi is actually not afraid of the princess, nor is he afraid of the saint. The only thing he is afraid of is the young master's sister.

Because the other party really wanted to kill her.

Eyes lowered, Bai Muxi responded softly:

"Good"

Xu Yuan raised his eyebrows, with a somewhat strange look in his eyes.

Surprisingly, there was no scent of tea.

He was very clear about Lou Ji's attitude towards Little White, so he thought that Little White would take this opportunity to show off his tea art.

But it seems that she still knows how to act appropriately.

Just as he was thinking in his mind, Xu Yuan suddenly raised his eyes and looked at the entrance of the hall.

the next moment,

"Tuk-tuk-tuk--"

There was a knock on the door, and then without Xu Yuan's consent, an old man in expensive red-edged black bottoms opened the door and walked in.

Sharp eyes swept over Xu Yuan and Bai Muxi, and Hua Hong's brows wrinkled unconsciously.

Because of the problem of the Underground Palace survivors, the attitude of the Prime Minister's Mansion's core senior management towards Bai Muxi and Underground Palace Simin is basically to kill them and then hurry up.

Although this attitude was forcibly suppressed by Xu Yinhe, the emotion is definitely still there.

However, the moment he saw Xu Yuan bring him here, Hua Hong roughly sorted out the cause and effect in his mind, and walked slowly towards the soft couch, with a serious look on his face, his gestures, and an invisible aura of superiority exuding from his facial expressions, words and deeds:

"Why did you bring her here?"

The voice was a little cold and unhappy, with an air of calmness and authority.

In the past, in front of Xu Yuan, this old man had always looked like a shameless miser, without any of the aura of President Cheonan.

This was the first time Xu Yuan saw Hua Hong with this look. He subconsciously sat up straight, feeling as nervous as when he was facing the head teacher in middle school in his previous life. Little White beside him even lowered his head.

"."

A moment of silence,

After Xu Yuan reacted, he chuckled lightly, crossed his legs, and replied weirdly:

"Old man, what are you doing?"

"."

Their eyes met, not giving in at all.

Hua Hong stared at Xu Yuan for a few breaths, sighing silently in his heart.

Sure enough, I can't scare this guy.

With a slight snort, Hua Hong's aura of Chairman Tian'an dissipated and he turned back into the stingy old man before, but his eyes remained serious:

"I have never understood why Xu Yinhe forcibly left those remnants of thousands of years ago, but now it seems that it is actually because of you."

The voice was very soft, but Bai Muxi couldn't help but trembled after hearing it.

I said this to the young master, but I said it even more to her.

With a slight movement, he glanced at the young master beside him, Xu Yuan leaned on the soft couch, swayed his legs, and said with a chuckle:

"Is there any gain in this world without taking risks?"

"As long as they are separated, those risks can be ignored."

"."

"Hey, I'm talking about maximizing profits, old man, what do you think?"

"Don't talk nonsense with me here."

Hua Hong sat down opposite Xu Yuan, waved his hand to interrupt, stared at Xu Yuan with his old but energetic eyes, and spoke earnestly:

"Changtian I'm not qualified to tell you what you want to do, but I hope that after we old men are dead, you will be able to afford the choice you make now."

Sure enough.

The old man saw the deal between him and Bai Muxi at a glance.

Thinking about it, Xu Yuan smiled nonchalantly and whispered:

"You don't have to worry about this old man at all."

"Oh? What should I say?"

"Because the members of Little White may not even be ranked among the relatives."

"." Hua Hong

His eyelids twitched, Hua Hong opened his mouth and wanted to curse directly, but in the end he held it back, pressed his eyebrows, and said:

"It's up to you. If anything comes up this time, just tell me. I've been very busy recently, and I still have things to deal with later."

Xu Yuan followed the topic and smiled, raising his hand and pressing it on Bai Muxi's boneless shoulder:

"Didn't I just say this? Regarding her tribesmen, I need Tian'an Chamber of Commerce to help find a resettlement place."

"Impossible." Hua Hong refused without even thinking.

"Old Man Hua, this is my father"

"It's impossible for your father to agree."

"You should know that he has given me full responsibility for this matter."

"Giving you full responsibility does not mean that he will let Tian'an Chamber of Commerce help."

"Tsk, if you don't believe it, you can go to the Prime Minister's Mansion and ask him."

"I will go tonight."

"." Xu Yuan stopped talking.

"." Hua Hong looks like an idiot.

He had seen too many tricks that Shanglu Economic and Trade used to package up identities with poor information, and this guy actually wanted to use this trick to fool him.

It was so quiet in the hall that you could hear a pin drop.

Bai Muxi was sitting on his knees on the ground, his eyes were downcast, but his hands lying flat between his legs were tightly holding his dress.

The conversation of the young master during this trip will determine the future of her people.

In Bai Muxi's nervousness, Xu Yuan suddenly sighed softly.

This old man is so shrewd that he can't fool him even by trying to hide his skin.

I miss the first day of Qing Dynasty.

With a hint of helplessness, Xu Yuan said softly:

"Okay, let's just keep things official.

"I will personally figure out how to use the money and food, but I want to borrow the name of Tian'an Chamber of Commerce. This should be okay, right?"

Hua Hong thought for a moment and nodded slightly:

"Okay."

"First a settlement."

"The cost of building a settlement city that can accommodate hundreds of thousands of people is not a small amount of money."

Hua Hong reminded him aloud, then seemed to think of something, and said with a chuckle, "Even if you throw in all the eight million taels of silver that you gave Xin Yao, it won't be enough."

"This. We can figure it out ourselves."

Bai Muxi suddenly interrupted at this time, glanced at Hua Hong with bright eyes, and said cautiously to Xu Yuan: "Sir, we can cut down the wood and quarry stone by ourselves."

"Have you been asked to speak?"

Xu Yuan glanced at her, and Bai Muxi immediately fell silent.

Taking a deep breath, Xu Yuan said to Hua Hong:

"Everything in the city where the Underground Palace survivors live is built according to the standards of the Great Yan county."

"This is quite a deal."

Hua Hong smiled when he heard this and raised his hand to stroke his white beard, "If the land reclamation order is adopted as the policy, there is no need to purchase land, but Changtian do you have the money to build a city?"

If Sumeru Ring had not been robbed by that old woman Lou Ji, various war materials worth nearly ten million taels of silver could barely replace the initial materials used to build the city, but it is definitely not enough now.

However, facing the old man's smiling gaze, Xu Yuan took out a map from Sumeru Ring without haste and said softly:

"When did I say that we would build settlements through land reclamation decrees? I don't like that kind of remote countryside."

Hua Hong frowned slightly when he heard this:

"Do you want to buy land? Even if you call Prime Minister's Mansion and don't have to deal with it, buying land will cost you a lot of money."

"Haha."

After laughing softly twice, Xu Yuan slowly laid the entire map flat on the tea table in front of him, tapped the previous position with his long index finger, raised his eyes, and said with a smile:

"Old Man Hua, have you forgotten that Huizhou County was destroyed before?

"This kind of land is located at the junction of two continents and at the entrance to Gyeonggi Province. It is impossible for the imperial court to give up. When I read the memorial in the study, the imperial court had already prepared to allocate funds for reconstruction. Although the Ministry of Revenue allocated budget is not a lot of money, it is barely enough for the initial stage."

Saying that, Xu Yuan smiled slightly:

"Old man Hua, it shouldn't be difficult to contract out the reconstruction project of the entire city with Tian'an Chamber of Commerce, right?"

The third day in a row...
