Chapter 154 Reason
It is very simple to become a ten-level strong man. As long as both parties agree, you can go to the imperial city of any country to find the official level responsible for this matter.
But the minister of becoming a ten-level strong man is not as beautiful as outsiders, not only because all property will be assigned to the name of this strong man in the future, but also the surname of the strong man should be added forever after the name, even if the ten-level strong man eventually dies, as those of the minister Later generations can't change this fate.
And this point is also like an invisible chain, firmly binding the ministers and the ten-level strong, with both glory and loss.
If you can attach a clearly prominent and highly regarded ten-level strongman, it is certainly an infinite scenery for the ministers, but if the ten-level strong man attached to is a notorious villain, then it is undoubtedly an extremely tragic thing for the ministers.
In the history of the Longteng Empire, there was a rebellion led by a ten-level martial arts master. After a series of bloody massacres, the rebellion was suppressed, and the subjects who followed the ten-level martial arts master did not escape the fate of the exterminated clan without exception.
Through the history of the northern continent, there are many examples of irrational acts of ministers bringing bad luck to their masters, so even for tens of thousands of years, the choice between the two is an extremely cautious thing.
The fat man really can't figure out why the Zhao family is so anxious. Even if he is currently a seven-level warrior and has great hope of breaking through level 10, but after all, there is still a long time to go before the future, it is hard to say what will happen in the future. The Zhao family's decision is a little abrupt.
And Berno, standing aside, heard the two people's conversation and his eyelids suddenly beat wildly, and his heart was like a five-flavor bottle. Although he was only seven or eight years older than a fat man at his age, it was this short seven or eight years that would make their future life go two completely different. Road.
Although the 28-year-old seven-level magician can be called a genius, compared with this martial artist who has broken through to the seventh level at the age of 20, it is nothing. If he has 60% of the certainty that he can break through the tenth level and become a generation of magic masters in the future, then this opportunity of the fat man is at least There will also be eight points.
It's evil! A strong sense of frustration suddenly surged in Berno's heart.
"I really haven't thought much about this problem. Look, I'm only a seven-level martial artist now. It's a little early to think about this!" The fat man scratched his head and said very modestly.
Damn, this fat man is starting to pretend again! Berno cursed in his heart and turned his head to one side, but a pair of ears were high.
"I think Mr. Ye has understood what we mean!" Zhao Tingyu smiled, but there was a little helplessness in this smile.
Seeing that the fat man nodded gently, she said, "For those big families that have inherited for nearly thousands of years, becoming a ten-level strongman will not change anything. It will not improve their status or bring them any practical benefits, but, For a newly emerging family like ours, being able to attach a ten-level strongman is undoubtedly of great benefit to future development.
The fat man raised his eyebrows and did not interrupt Zhao Tingyu's conversation. Although there were only a few words, he had overturned his previous speculation about the Zhao family's behavior. Moreover, he appreciated Zhao Tingyu's way of talking. To be honest, it would always be better than hiding. The conversation made him feel a little more sincere.
Zhao Tingyu sat up straight, and the faint light fell on the plain skirt and dragged a long figure on the ground. The silk scarf wrapped around her slender neck gradually slid down with her movements, revealing a slightly invisible and slightly pink scar on her jaw.
"The reason why I invited Mr. Ye to come today is to ask Mr. Ye if he has any intention to accept my Zhao family as a minister in the future!" Zhao Tingyu's words sounded with an unquestionable determination.
The fat man suddenly fell silent.
There is still the problem that constantly bothers him in his head. Why is the Zhao family so anxious? And do you want to have a relationship with yourself again and again? If there are not enough benefits in it, the fat man will not believe it.
However, after thinking about it, Ye Fei doesn't feel that he has anything outstanding, but simply plans to ascend to the sky in the future? The fat man shook his head slightly and left this idea behind in an instant. If it was just for this, the Zhao family would never have to be so popular with themselves.
Once you are not a native of Su Ai, even if you can break through level 10 in the future, it will not help the Zhao family much. If the Zhao family is a small family in the Longteng Empire, this reason may be reasonable. However, for decades, the Zhao family has managed a good sphere of influence in Ai Sanwu, for a In the unknown future, people who have left behind the industry that the family has operated for decades will not do this!
So what made the Zhao family make such a decision? Is it that the Zhao family has encountered some difficult crisis? So that they had to leave here?
But...
The fat man hesitated to take a look at Zhao Tingyu, who was full of expectations, and his heart was a little uncertain. Judging from his personal experience in Aisangu during this period, in this city of hundreds of thousands of people, it was nothing more than a few families that could compete with the Zhao family. Although they won or lost each other, they have always maintained a relative In the state of balance of power.
What's more, with a shrewd woman like Zhao Tingyu supporting the Zhao family behind her back, it is impossible for the Zhao family to provoke any strong enemy, which can be seen from her attitude towards herself alone.
And Berno, who stood aside, had already turned his head and stared at the fat man. He really couldn't figure out what strange ideas came out of the fat pig's head.
Looking at the thick pile of documents next to the wine glass, Berno is like seeing a naked beauty lying in **, and his eyes are shining. These are all wasted money. As long as you move your fingers and write your name, you will become your own industry, which is really irresistible **.
At that moment, if it hadn't been for the sudden punch and foot of the fat man who didn't know where it came out, Berno couldn't wait to rush forward and write his name on it.
"Mother! This guy won't be Yang. Is it paralysed? What else is there to hesitate about? Just go straight!" Berno roared in his heart.
"I'm afraid not!"
After a long silence, Ye Fei finally said something that made Berno extremely depressed.
"It's over, it's over! I still expect this guy to take advantage of his happiness to reduce my contract by a few years. This time it's completely hopeless!" The simple and naive Berno couldn't wait to fall to the ground with his eyes.
"Why?" Zhao Tingyu looked at Ye Fei in a daze. She never thought that her already humble compromise could not achieve the desired goal.
"Isn't these conditions enough for me? All the industries of our Zhao family are here. What else do you want? As long as you sign it, these things will belong to you now, and what we will get will only be a distant promise!" Zhao Tingyu seemed to lose her mind in an instant, and her eyes were full of red blood. Under the table, the palms that clenched the long skirt made the joints pale.
"Unless you can tell me the reason, the real reason!" The fat man stared at Zhao Tingyu and said word by word.
And Zhao Tingyu seemed to have drained her strength. Her body, which had leaned slightly forward, gradually fell back to the middle of the chair, and her eyes were instantly occupied by a helpless loss, as if she had been severely damaged, leaving only a mutter: "Fore...reason..."
When Zhao Tingyu's unwilling voice came to the fat man's ears, a very complicated emotion surged in the fat man's heart.
After several contacts, Ye Fei has gradually changed from a trace of goodwill to a trace of appreciation for this woman. The fat man doesn't even know the change in his own mentality. If it is placed on others, when the fat man figure out the truth, he will inevitably be hidden. There was a hostile emotion in his consciousness, but only when he faced this woman, there was a feeling of regret in his heart.
Ye Fei also couldn't figure out where this emotion came from. Maybe it was just because of her most simple spirit of being willing to give everything for her family moved him.
Only slightly sad music echoed around the huge bar, and a faint red remained at the bottom of the gradually empty crystal cup on the table.
After being quiet for a long time, Zhao Tingyu slowly straightened up and said weakly, "Our Zhao family is not malicious to you!"
"I know!" Ye Fei's fingers gradually crossed the edge of the cup and said faintly.
"Why? Are the conditions we offered not enough?
The fat man raised his head, stared at Zhao Tingyu for a moment, and then returned his eyes to his finger. "No, these properties do not add up to four million gold coins and there are more than three million, right? It's a lie to say that you can't move!"
"Then why are you..."
As soon as Zhao Tingyu's words were half full, he was interrupted by a fierce look of the fat man, and his aggressive eyes actually overwhelmed him.
"I said that I would not agree to this matter without a reasonable reason!"
Zhao Tingyu frowned and bit her lips hard. The hesitation and erraticness in her eyes showed that her heart was struggling fiercely.
One minute...
Three minutes...
Five minutes...
"I'll take you to meet someone!" Zhao Tingyu suddenly raised her head and said resolutely.
