307 Pulling people into the water (Part 2)

The layout of the Lafite family is no different from that of other noble families. However, in terms of decoration, Chen Xiansong found that this family loved silver jewelry very much. The corners of the table, chair corners, and corners of the furniture were all covered with gorgeous silver jewelry. Seeing Chen Xiansong looking at the decorations in his home, Rafite said proudly: "Your Excellency, it's not bad. These furniture were specially purchased from the home master of the royal city and Master Buji, and the cost was quite large."

"It's really good." Chen Xiansong smiled. Judging from his 23rd century mankind, such decorations actually have a 'classical' atmosphere, but they are also full of nouveau riche. He looked around and said, "It would be better if there were more ink and paintings from the Zhendan Kingdom."

Rafi wrote down this sentence with great care. Chen Xiansong is a recognized genius soul-thinking person, and he is also a very powerful artist. Old Udir once received a portrait of him, and everyone thinks it is extremely charming. His suggestions are definitely not aimless.

The two sat down, the servants served the food and went down again, and they knew that the two big men had to discuss important things. Annie originally wanted to leave, but Chen Xiansong suddenly said, "Forget it, Annie, stay here and listen. It's okay."

When Annie heard this, she was so happy that she felt like the dark cloudy sky suddenly turned into a clear summer with the fragrance of flowers and plants.

Lafite had no objection to this. A sun god servant and a dragon clan have a higher identity than himself. He is qualified to speak out. In this world, everything is spoken according to identity and strength. The Laron family is indeed a prestigious family in Black Rock City, but if it is placed in the whole country or in the whole world, it is just an ordinary little noble.

Any nobleman, as long as he has the opportunity, would think about climbing up and bringing his family to the top step by step. There are countless people who follow this path. However, there are very few people who can truly do it. Many people fell in the middle of the journey, but they have never made the later generations think of retreating. The power of the desire for power can be seen through.

The Lalong family is naturally no exception. Rafi had probably guessed Chen Xiansong's purpose. But he didn't dare to speak nonsense, for fear that the opportunity would be lost by himself. So he had to try his best to say some polite scenes, find ways to heat up the atmosphere, and find ways to let Chen Xiansong say his purpose on his own initiative.

As a qualified aristocrat, Rafi has good research on how to talk to superiors. In fact, Chen Xiansong feels comfortable listening to him and his level is much higher than that of ordinary aristocrats. And you can't tell anything special from his words, but his attention will be attracted by him.

The two chatted for a while, and Chen Xiansong felt that the time was almost over, so he said, "Hisser Lafite, I want to discuss something with you."

Finally here! Rafi was delighted. There was a very calm expression on his face. He had just said a lot of saliva, but he was almost speechless, so he finally waited for the other party to speak. He subconsciously tapped the table twice and said, "Oh, please tell me if you have anything to do. As long as our Laron family can do it, we will definitely do it for you without saying a word, and the time will never be delayed."

There are two most unreliable things in the world. The sweet words of men and the promises of nobles, and Lafite took them both. Chen Xiansong naturally would not take his words seriously, but believed them twice, and then said, "It's not a big deal, but I heard Zelonger say that. His elder brother Bill is planning to do some charcoal business with your family, and you gave him the best price?"

"It's true." Rafi desperately recalled the knowledge he learned from the "genealogy" over the years. Try to match the examples in the book to see if there is an example similar to the situation in front of him. At the same time, he said: "His Excellency Bill and I are very friendly friends. The friendship is comparable to the purest gold, and it will never fade because of time and distance. Since he wants to do business with me, I naturally have to give him the greatest discount."

Seeing Rafi looking very familiar with Bill, Chen Xiansong felt a little funny. Before coming, he asked about Zelonger's situation. Combined with the information in the association, he probably knew what was going on. Bill is a person with good face but no ability. He usually likes to brag among the nobles of the same age, and often spends a lot of money to invite people to serve in the tavern, and enjoys the fun of Xiaoyao.

Rafi and Bill were quite close, but he wanted to establish a relationship with the City Lord's Mansion through Bill. However, the old City Lord and Zelonger have always been very busy and rarely contacted the young nobles. After a long time, Rafi learned about Bill's status in the City Lord's Mansion and gradually began to alienate him. However, he did not expect that the night before yesterday, Bill actually came to the door and said that there was a business to negotiate.

Lafite didn't care too much at first, but just received Bill in a routine manner. Unexpectedly, as soon as he talked, he found that it was indeed a big business, but a very "strange" big business.

"What have you talked to you in addition to doing business with you?" Chen Xiansong asked.

Rafi shook his head and said, "There is nothing important except business... Oh, by the way, Your Excellency Bill mentioned a small matter. He said that he wanted to go out to get some evil stones and come back recently, and asked you to make a piece of equipment for him. He said that since you gave Your Excellency Zelonger one, you will naturally give him one."

"That's it?" Chen Xiansong smiled strangely.

"What else can you think is there?" Rafi had a very strange expression.

At this time, Bai Min walked to Chen Xiansong and whispered: "Xiaosong, he is lying."

Although Bai Min's voice was low, there was no one in the hall now, and Rafi heard it, and his face suddenly became a little ugly. It was a very rude thing to publicly expose the lies of a nobleman. After a few seconds of silence, Rafi laughed dryly: "Ms. Bai, you really like to joke."

"Xiao Min can see if ordinary people are lying." Chen Xiansong leaned back on the back of the chair and said, "Besides, Xiao Min doesn't like to joke. Although I really hope that she can understand humor and get angry like ordinary people, she has never been. Lord Rafi, Xiao Min said, if you hide something, then you must have hidden something. Can you tell me to listen to it?"

An embarrassing atmosphere filled the air. Rafi looked at Bai Min helplessly. If it were an ordinary noble woman, he would have been angry, but he would not be angry when facing Bai Min and others. Besides, he would not dare to be angry. Sun God servant, soul-thinking person, and dragon clan... Who dares to turn against each other casually and don’t want to survive, right?

Rafi quickly calculated the safety and gains and losses in his head... After a moment of silence, he sat down next to him and said, "Okay, since you have asked, I will tell you what I know. Your Excellency Bill did come to discuss business with me the night before yesterday. After the business was completed, we drank some wine, and then he got drunk and revealed some very important news. I originally wanted to rot the news in my stomach, but when you asked, I could only tell it."

"What news?" Chen Xiansong took a sip of fruit wine.

"He said..." Rafi looked at Chen Xiansong nervously, then looked at Bai Min who could see through the hearts of the people, and finally gritted his teeth and said, "When Lord Bill was drunk, he said in a daze, you seem to be planning to build a very powerful weapon, a weapon that can change the situation in the region, which requires a lot of charcoal, and some other materials. He also told me the names of those materials."

Chen Xiansong sighed. Most of the man Bill was drunk by Rafi and then he got everything out. For such an important thing, even a man like Bill should know the importance of the matter and should not talk nonsense. There is no other reason except being drunk.

"Since you know, what do you think?" Chen Xiansong asked.

"There is no idea." Rafi stood up and hurriedly stated: "Your Excellency, our Laron family is just a small family. It is very satisfying to be able to do business and make money. You dare not think about other things, nor do you dare to think about them. Please rest assured."

"I really don't have any idea?" Chen Xiansong looked at the other party with a smile.

Rafi looked at Chen Xiansong's expression and knew that now was a very critical moment. According to his answer, the family might be in trouble, it might be safe, or it might be greatly benefited. He swallowed his saliva and thought that it would be great if his father was here and could make a decision. He was still too young and could take on such a great responsibility, especially this responsibility is related to the future of the family.

Seeing the other party nervously unable to speak, Chen Xiansong was a little surprised and wondered why this person was so indifferent. In fact, Rafi was already very good, and it might not be possible for others to do better. Chen Xiansong himself is a soul-thought-hearted person, and he was surrounded by the legendary Sun God servant and the Dragon Clan. Together with the three, even if the royal family members saw him, they had to consider whether their identity was qualified to talk to Chen Xiansong, let alone Rafi, who was born in a small aristocratic family.

Seeing that the other party seemed to be unable to make a decision, Chen Xiansong said: "Actually, some ideas are okay, just look at whether your ideas are good or not."

When Rafi heard the first half of Chen Xiansong, he was almost frightened. Because the aristocratic class had a habit that in order to show elegance, he would always say before dealing with someone, that it would be okay for you to do XXX like this, I wouldn't be angry... and so on, and then turn around and make the other party worse than death.

At that moment, Rafi thought Chen Xiansong was going to deal with his family. After hearing the second half of the sentence, his panic suddenly dissipated, and he sat back on the chair softly: "Your Excellency, you almost killed me... I will tell you now that I have the idea. I want to cooperate with you to operate that kind of weapon together. I am willing to spend enough money to exchange for a certain amount of weapons. We can talk about this slowly, what do you think?"
