Chapter 1173 1171 [Intrigue! 】(2/2)

"That's fine!" Wade took the lead and walked towards the private room.

To be honest, the three of them were very surprised when Shi Zhijian invited them to dinner this time.

Originally, they had nothing to do with Shi Zhijian. To be precise, they had a quarrel at the last funeral of the Duke of Windsor. But such a relationship, Shi Zhijian personally called them and sent them an invitation, inviting them to come to this Chinatown restaurant today.

"Get together" at the restaurant.

After receiving the invitation, the three people met to figure it out. They didn't know what Shi Zhijian was up to, and their curiosity drove them to come over and have a look.

Entering the private room, the large room is antique, with Chinese landscape paintings posted on it, and a guqin placed beside it, emitting a faint fragrance.

What surprised the three of them was that there was already a white man sitting in the private room at this moment. They were stunned when they saw each other. They felt that they looked familiar, but they couldn't pronounce their names.

Shi Zhijian took the opportunity to step forward: "Come, let me introduce you to you," he said, pointing to the white man sitting upright: "Captain of the British Empire Navy - Mr. Gilbert!"

No wonder they looked familiar. Only then did Wade and the three of them remember each other's identities. They were the closest subordinates of a certain general in the British peak.

"Hello, I'm Wade!"

"Daniel!"

"Thomas!"

Although the three Wades held high positions and were in charge of London's taxation and water and electricity business respectively, the other party had a special status and was a subordinate of the famous general, so they immediately put down their arrogance and shook hands with the other party.

In fact, the Gilbert and Shi Zhijian in front of me can be regarded as "old friends."

When Shi Zhijian was trapped on the pirate island, Lei Luo was trained at Scotland Yard in England and rushed back to Hong Kong overnight to rescue him. At that time, it was Colonel Gilbert Bert who helped fight against pirates! To be precise, Gil was not a colonel at that time.

But the Major!

It was through this rescue operation that Shi Zhijian established a deep friendship with Gill. Later, Shi Zhijian ordered Badgar and Hu Juncai to go to South Korea to discuss the arms business. Major Gill was the British representative and made a fortune by smuggling arms.

labor.

After making enough money, Major Gill not only took up his post, but was also transferred back to the UK from Hong Kong. As a confidant of the top boss, he continued to participate in the arms smuggling business that Shi Zhijian had promoted, and made the business bigger and bigger.

At this moment, Shi Zhijian finished his introduction and invited everyone to sit down.

Here the maid of the restaurant knocked on the door and came in, wearing a cheongsam and Tingting, serving tea to everyone.

The fragrance of the tea made several ghost guys couldn't help but take a deep breath.

Shi Zhijian made a "please tea" gesture, blew on the tea foam, and took a sip. Then he put down the teacup and raised his head and said to everyone: "Everyone, actually I invite you here today to discuss a business."

After Shi Zhijian finished speaking, he looked at Jill, who smiled knowingly and said, "Originally we didn't want outsiders to get involved in this deal, but my dear Lord Earl said that if you have money, everyone will make it. In their Cantonese, it's called 'same pot, same profit'.

"

When Wade and the other three heard this, their faces showed a trace of solemnity.

We are all smart people, and there are only a few types of business we can do with soldiers in this world, either daily necessities or arms.

The three of them are not wholesalers, so there is only one possibility - arms!

"Ahem, I'm sorry, I'm in charge of taxation. If you two do business in a company, maybe I can help!" Wade shrugged, looking helpless.

"The same goes for us. We manage water and electricity, and we don't understand anything else. But I don't know if I can help you two?" Daniel and Thomas also looked at Shi Zhijian.

In terms of status, Count Shi Zhijian really outclassed them all.
