Come to Daming with military supplies

Yes, they are the security bureau spies who entered the Phnom Penh Dynasty earlier.This time, it was under the order of the director of foreign affairs, Mr. Skylark, to intercept the merchant ship of the Solangon family here, and to let go of a living person as required.As for why they did this, they didn't need to think too much. The Security Bureau has always had their own rules, and it has become a habit to just do it without talking.

Besides, Naxin jumped into the river and dived into the distance.Fortunately, he was away all year round, and the water quality was good. There was no storm on the river, and it was broad daylight, so he quickly found his way and escaped.

After getting on the shore, I identified the direction, ran all the way, regardless of thirst and hunger, and finally entered the Laos province four days later.Then I found a branch of Solangon Trading Company, and after clarifying my identity, I got on a carriage and drove to Vientiane City overnight.

It was another seven days, and Naxin finally saw the gate of Vientiane City. At this moment, tears flowed uncontrollably, like a child who finally found his parents, and instantly had a backbone.

In the ancestral home of the Solangon family, people of some identities and those who can stand alone are all present.Above the main seat is a young man who is full of vitality and exudes boundless energy.He is the new patriarch of the family, Tanong Si.

He Nongsi was smart since he was a child, especially his ability to do business and conduct himself in the world, and he showed a strong talent when he was very young.However, some of the businesses he handled brought a lot of benefits to the family and became a role model for the younger generation.

Since it is a big family, there is naturally no shortage of talents. On the contrary, the psychology of seniority is still very serious.Even if he is capable of Nongsi, he still needs a huge opportunity to really get ahead, otherwise, he can only wait until his qualifications are up.

To say that his luck in Nongsi is really good, he finally waited for the opportunity, and the seemingly powerful Lancang Kingdom was destroyed overnight.When everyone was still watching and holding a glimmer of hope for the former Majesty Payasai, he made a decisive move.

Since it is a business family, they naturally know more about the outside world, otherwise it is easy to suffer.When buying goods in a commercial street in Vietnam, Nong Si was the person in charge of the family. From there, he heard a lot about the sixth young master and saw how powerful the mercenaries were.After a little comparison now, he knows that the Lancang Kingdom will definitely become a thing of the past, and it is absolutely impossible to make a comeback.So he made a decision immediately, that is to make friends with the mercenaries.

Opportunities are always for those who are prepared.Unable to establish a relationship with the mercenaries in the first place, Tanongsi took the initiative to find the former national teacher Longzi and expressed his intention to join forces.

Lonzi is also the winner of this regime change. Although he will not be able to enjoy any more power in the future, he can get the business principal of 500 million taels. Not only that, he is also allowed to do business in the new Laos province without being banned from business. The Han merchants in the street were crowded out.

This is his advantage.After he found Nongsi, the retired national teacher felt even more powerful. He now has no money and business qualifications, but how to make business more profitable, and he does not have a broad business route. All this happened to be the strength of the Solangon family.

A strong alliance is exactly what they want.Lonzi agreed to the cooperation request put forward by the Solangon family. As the manager and proposer of the matter, Thanongsi contributed a lot. He seized the opportunity and became the new patriarch of the family. bit into a state of retreat.

After becoming the new patriarch, Tanong wanted to bring the family to a higher glory, so he ordered several groups of merchants to send out together. He wanted to see all the people in the family to see how correct it was to choose him as the patriarch.But no one expected that an accident would happen. Not to mention the money was gone, hundreds of people were killed. If it wasn't for his good water quality and quick readability, even he would die. The Solangon family is still shrouded in fog.

Naxin knelt on the ground, and in front of all the family members and the new patriarch, he explained clearly what happened on the Mekong River.As soon as his words fell, there were angry denunciations from other clansmen.

"Bastard, why are these people so shameless?"

"They are obviously robbers"

"You can't just leave it like this, you must give them an explanation."

"Yes, I want them to give an explanation."

More and more tribesmen were infected by this angry atmosphere, and they all looked filled with righteous indignation, as if they would dare to rush to the Phnom Penh Dynasty to kill those officers and soldiers if they were given a knife.

Compared to the angry expressions of the others, the patriarch Tanong Si did not follow along and shouted, but began to seriously analyze the whole matter.



Chapter 599 Don't Seek Help

Judging from Naxin's testimony, it is clear that the two generals of the Phnom Penh Dynasty had a rift. After seeing the Solangon family earning so much money, General Hun Sen made a sudden move regardless of General Dahn's face. It is the best of both worlds to get money and slap the other party.

The only fly in the ointment is that Naxin escaped back, making the truth come to light.If it is said that the Solangon family has been doing business for generations, they have some money, but it is obviously not practical to compete with the generals of a country because of this.If they really dared to do this, they could only hit a stone with a pebble, and eventually the entire family's business route in the Phnom Penh Dynasty was wiped out.

Businessmen mainly seek money, and they don't know how to use swords if they don't have to.Hard versus tough is obviously not what he thinks, nor is it in the interests of the family.But since Hun Sen has made a move, how can he let it go, and how can he bow his head lightly?I'm afraid he won't even admit what he did before.In this case, things are a little tricky.

When Tan Nongsi was still thinking about the pros and cons of the matter, the members of the family had stopped arguing and all looked at him. It was obvious that he, the patriarch, had to make a decision at this time.

"Everyone, don't be impatient. Let me discuss this matter with Mr. Long Qi before making a decision." He Nong Si did not make any rash decisions in public. Otherwise, once impulsive, it may bring terrible consequences that will never be restored to the whole family.

The patriarch had spoken, and everyone had no other choice but to agree first.However, some clan elders have expressed that if this matter cannot be handled properly, they will consider reconvening the family meeting and re-selecting a new clan leader.

Tanongsi was able to take the position precisely because he hugged Longzi's thigh, but if this thigh could not guarantee the interests of the family, then they would not mind inviting the old patriarch out.From this incident, it can be seen that his Nong Si's superiority still made many people feel jealous, and the backyard was unstable.

Knowing what the elders meant, he was not angry, but agreed with a smile, promising that the matter would be resolved.After that, he took a few entourages to Yuan Guoshi's mansion and met Long Qi.

He is no longer a national teacher, and Long Qi does not have as many official duties as before. Even the old Canglan nobles still squeeze him out. He had already begun to reap the rewards, and the white money went into his pocket, making him laugh so hard that he couldn't close his mouth, and he seemed to be younger all of a sudden.

Knowing that Nong Si had come, Long Qi laughed and walked into the main hall. He thought it was the payment on the business route of the Phnom Penh Dynasty. How can you be unhappy with several years of salary.

"Mr. Long, something has happened." As soon as he saw Long Qi, Tanong Si let go of the patriarch's airs, folded his fists and lowered his head, repeating what Naxin had said before.

Long Qi put away his complacent look, and quietly listened to his Nong Si's words.After understanding the whole incident, his first feeling was whether the other party wanted to cheat and swallow his share of benefits.But if you think about it carefully, the other party has more to rely on yourself now, so he probably won't do such a small matter.Could it be that there are really people who don't have eyes and swallow their money?

Doing business is difficult, especially depending on the faces of the dignitaries, and sometimes even if you fail to manage one aspect, you may suffer a lot of losses.Although Lonzi has never done business, he still knows the reason behind this.But usually the smaller the business, the greater the constraints will be. On the contrary, the more powerful the family, the easier it is to start a business. This is the power of connections.

The Solangon family has been doing business for generations. In some surrounding countries, even Daming has some contacts and foundations. It is said that such robbery and murder will not fall on them.But why did such a thing happen suddenly?

As a former national teacher of a country, Long Qi obviously thought more than the businessman, Nongsi.It was precisely because he thought about it more that he felt the difficulty of this matter even more.

"Mr. Patriarch, what are you going to do?" It is a habit that Longzi has cultivated for many years without expressing his opinion immediately. Before making a final decision, he first reads other people's opinions and learns from each other's strengths. .

"Mr. Long, I would like to send someone to communicate with General Hun Sen first to see if we can make things clear. If they don't give face, they are asking General Moon for help to put pressure on him. In short, this problem is not resolved. Our caravan can no longer go to the Phnom Penh Dynasty." He Nongsi came all the way, but he thought of many countermeasures.But he still felt that these conventional coping methods were not enough.

"That's right." Longzi nodded in agreement, and he agreed with Nongsi's proposal.

"It's just" a tangled look appeared on his Nong Si's face.

"Just how? Mr. Patriarch, since we are already partners, we can say what we have." Longzi showed a little dissatisfaction with his Nongsi's playing hard to get. Being in a high position, how can you not see through the opponent's tricks if you haven't seen what kind of things.

A look of embarrassment appeared on his Nong Si's face when he was pointed out, but soon he returned to normal.As a businessman, thick-skinned is always the first element. When encountering a problem, he shrinks back. Such a person is destined to not be able to achieve any great things. "Yes, what Mr. Long said is true, it's a little show off."

After admitting that he was wrong, Tanong thought about it and said bluntly: "It may be difficult to solve the matter. Now that General Hun Sen has taken action and the fat has been eaten in his mouth, he will not spit it out." If it comes out, they will even deny it. If this is the case, I am afraid that General Dahn's pressure will not be effective. Not to mention, it is not yet known whether the two generals can really turn their faces for us as a businessman. Therefore, We have other preparations to do.”

"Other preparations? What do you mean?" Longzi naturally understood the reason behind this.Protecting each other from officials and officials is not just talking about it. Facing businessmen, officials always have a sense of superiority. Naturally, what he thinks about Nong Si has its reasons.

After he pondered for a moment, he finally raised his head and said to Long Qi: "We have to be prepared. If we can't do it, we can ask for help from the mercenaries." "Ask for help from the mercenaries?" Surprised, he shook his head and said, "No, no, how could the mercenaries bother with such a small matter like ours. Besides, the Phnom Penh dynasty is an independent dynasty, and they have no affiliation with the mercenaries."

Of course Long Qi wanted to shake his head, he used to be a national teacher, but now he is just a commoner.Skylark wanted to use him before, so he was allowed to put forward conditions.Now that 500 million taels of silver have been given to him, he is allowed to do business, and he is allowed to take some goods quotas from the commercial street first, which is already very caring.People can't push their feet.

Naturally, this is also because Lonzi is now in a weak position, otherwise, he would have done a lot of things to make progress.

"Why not?" On the contrary, Nong Si had a firm expression on his face. "Mr. Long, didn't the mercenaries say that? They will guarantee the people, oh no! It is the interests of their citizens. Now this is Laos province, we are already a citizen here. Commercial taxation, now that we have a problem, shouldn’t we ask them for help?”

Thanos wanted to say that he should ask them for an explanation.But this kind of knowledge should be thought about in his heart, he is not so courageous to really attack the mercenaries.

"This still doesn't work." Long Qi was moved by his Nong Si's words at first, but then shook his head again.Now he is just a commoner, who knows if he will still pay attention to him.What if he came to the door on his own initiative, and someone suddenly wanted to turn over the old account?Money is touching.Now who doesn't know that he has received 500 million taels of benefits from the hands of the mercenaries. If someone tries to get his idea and asks for gold and silver, will he give it or not?

As for whether the mercenary would do this, hehe, anyway, when Long Qi was the national teacher, he did this a lot.Of course, he would think that it should be done by himself.

Long Qi's head shook like a wave drum, which made him feel a little discouraged.The reason why he sought cooperation with him was not only because he saw that the other party could get more goods in the commercial street, but also because of the other party's connections and identity.Then if this matter can't be done properly, why does he still cooperate with the other party and take the initiative to give up the benefits?

This time is not an ordinary incident, but it is related to whether he can continue to be the patriarch. If it cannot be resolved reasonably, he may be beaten back to his original form again.It's not even as good as before. After all, everyone knows that he has the ambition to be the patriarch. At that time, no matter who became the patriarch, he would vigorously suppress him, and that was the difficulty.

Tanongsi, who has become the patriarch, certainly doesn't want to go back to the past, let alone the past that was not as good as the past.

Originally, he didn't want to talk too much, but since he had nowhere to go, he had no choice but to resort to his last trump card, "Mr. Long, this matter must be reported to the mercenaries and asked them to help. If this is the case, I don't think there is any need for you to cooperate with the Solangon family."

"Huh? What did you say?" Long Qi's eyes turned cold, and the aura of the original superior was undoubtedly revealed at this moment.

Chapter 600 He Guang's Thoughts

It's just an empty threat, and he Nong Si didn't take it seriously, "I've made it very clear, Mr. Long, please think twice about the choice you make. By the way, cooperating with you is the result of my efforts, but if because of I am no longer the patriarch in this matter, so of course the cooperation with you will come to an end. And I think, even if the patriarch is changed, they will not cooperate with you anymore. After all, cooperation requires both parties to cooperate. Work hard."
