Zhao Hai was stunned when he heard the knock on the door. He had already told the hotel staff not to look for him unless it was something important. He believed that the hotel staff would not disturb him.
Zhao Hai had already expected it to be Shunyi the first time he knocked on the door, and it really was Shunyi. But who would it be this time? Zhao waved his hand, and the projection of the surveillance camera appeared in front of them. They quickly saw the person standing outside. He was dressed in gorgeous clothes, but what was strange was that the gorgeous clothes were actually a servant’s robe.
A servant’s clothes were more gorgeous than an average Noble’s? Zhao Hai and the others felt a little dizzy when they saw the servant’s attire.
However, Zhao Hai also knew that a servant who could wear such clothes was definitely not a simple person. Zhao Hai waved his hand at Shunyi, and Shunyi understood and immediately went to open the door.
As expected, the servant was standing outside the door. Although his clothes were very gorgeous, it was still a servant’s uniform, and his attitude was also very humble. When he saw Shunyi open the door, he immediately bowed to him and said,”Hello, I’m here to see Mr. Zhao Hai.”
Seeing his attitude, Shunyi didn’t say anything bad, but he didn’t let down his guard. Instead, he looked at the man and said, ” “May I ask who you are? Is there something you need, young master?”
The servant smiled and said, ” I am also a servant. I am here to pass on a message from my master. However, my master’s family status is a little special. Therefore, I can only tell you my master’s name after I meet Mr. Zhao Hai. Please forgive me. &Quot;
Just as Shunyi was caught in a dilemma, Zhao Hai’s voice came, ” “Shunyi, let him in.”
Upon hearing Zhao Hai’s identity, Shunyi immediately acknowledged, then turned around and made a gesture of invitation. The servant then bowed to Shunyi and entered the room.
Zhao Hai was already sitting in the living room. It was obvious that the servants knew Zhao Hai. They immediately walked up to him and bowed, ” &Quot; greetings, Mr. Zhao Hai. My master has set up a banquet at home and has invited you to join us. &Quot;
Although the words were very polite, the tone revealed a pressure that could not be refused. This made Zhao Hai feel very strange. He did not know what the background of this servant was.
However, Zhao Hai didn’t care that much. He just looked at the servant and said, ” “Can you tell me the identity of your master? I won’t hide it from you, but I have a lot of enemies on the continent, so I won’t go if I’m invited by ordinary people.”
Li Rui was stunned for a moment, but he still smiled at Shunyi and the others, ” &Quot; Mr. Zhao Hai, my master’s identity can’t be revealed so easily. However, my master came with sincerity this time. Please do give us the honor. &Quot;
Zhao Hai frowned and looked at the servant, ” &Quot; everyone in this room is someone I can trust completely. If you really don’t want to tell me, then I’m sorry. I won’t meet people who are hiding. &Quot;
Li Rui’s face darkened when he heard Zhao Hai’s words. He looked at Zhao Hai and said, ” “Sir, if that’s the case, then I’ll tell you. The person who wants to see you is none other than the third Prince of the Roson Empire.”
Zhao Hai was stunned. He looked at Li Rui in confusion.”The third Prince wants to see me. Why are you being so mysterious? Is there something wrong?”
Li Rui looked at Zhao Hai and saw that he really didn’t understand. He sighed and said, ” “It turns out that you really don’t know. I’ve misunderstood. This Outwater city is the territory of the second Prince of a neighboring country, while the third Prince’s territory is the Jade water city. This time, His Highness came to Outwater city in secret. He doesn’t want the second Prince to know, so he can only meet you in secret. Do you understand now, Sir?”
He understood. Of course, Zhao Hai understood. However, he was no longer worried. He nodded and said,”Alright, please lead the way.” After saying that, he stood up.
Li Rui heaved a sigh of relief when he saw that Zhao Hai was going with him. He was afraid that Zhao Hai wouldn’t go with him, so he quickly led the way.
Only then did Zhao Hai realize that he had entered through the back door of the hotel. There was already a horse carriage waiting for him in the courtyard behind the hotel. Zhao Hai did not stand on ceremony and sat in the carriage.
The carriage was very ordinary. There was nothing special about it from the outside, but it was quite big and could fit five to six people. Zhao Hai, Xu Wanying, Shunyi, and Li Rui all sat in the carriage. The coachman was an ordinary-looking coachman.
Zhao Hai felt that Li Rui was making a mountain out of a molehill. What was so serious about it? However, on second thought, he noticed something else from all of Li Rui’s actions. He was afraid that the battle between the princes of the Roson Empire had already reached the point of white heat. Otherwise, the third Prince would not be so careful.
However, Zhao Hai was puzzled by this. The old king of the Roson Empire was still in good health. Why were the princes fighting over him?
The car left Sheila hotel and went around the streets. It took a while before they arrived in front of a house. This was the back door of the house. However, just from the back door, one could tell that this house was not simple. The construction of the back door was simply too beautiful, even more beautiful than the front door of ordinary people.
The car didn’t stop but drove straight into the back of the car and stopped at a parking lot. Li Rui invited Zhao Hai out of the car. Zhao Hai wasn’t angry. He really wanted to know why the third Prince was looking for him.
Under Li Rui’s lead, they passed through a few courtyards and arrived at a relatively elegant courtyard. It was not very big, similar to the plum fragrant courtyard Zhao Hai lived in Smith’s mayor’s mansion. However, the courtyard was not filled with plum blossoms, but some ornamental trees. Zhao Hai could not name them, but they made the courtyard stand out from the masses.
As soon as they entered the yard, they saw two people standing in front of the door. One was a fat man in his 50s who was dressed in a gorgeous business suit. This guy was so heavy that he looked like a mountain of meat. What made Zhao Hai feel strange was that this mountain of meat didn’t look heavy at all. Instead, he seemed to be very strong.
The other person was dressed in a very ordinary Noble’s clothes. He didn’t look very gorgeous. He was about 30 years old, looked very gentle, and his hair was combed very neatly. Although he was simply standing there, you naturally felt that he was superior to others, a natural born superior.
Li Jie walked up to the man in his thirties and bowed to him. &Quot; “Your Highness, Mr. Zhao Hai has arrived.” The man nodded and smiled at Zhao Hai, ” “Sir, please don’t blame Charlie for his rudeness. I really couldn’t help it.”
Zhao Hai smiled and dodged Charlie. &Quot; “Greetings, Prince Charlie. It’s an honor to be summoned by Your Highness.”
Charlie smiled. &Quot; you’re too kind, Sir. Please introduce him to us. This is a famous sea merchant in the city of waters, onas. &Quot;
“Greetings, Mr. Onas.” Zhao Hai bowed to him.
Onas’s chubby face was full of smiles as he said, ” “Sir is too polite. Your Highness, Sir, please.” After that, he led the two of them into the living room.
After they sat down in the living room, Li Rui immediately gave Zhao Hai and the others a cup of tea. After they took a sip of the tea, Charlie said, &Quot; I just happened to come to water city to deal with some matters. I heard about you, Sir, so I took the liberty to invite you here. I’m really sorry for my rudeness. &Quot;
Zhao Hai smiled. &Quot; Your Highness, you don’t have to say that. You’re too polite. There’s no such thing as being impolite. May I know why Your Highness has called me here? ”
Charlie was stunned. He did not expect Zhao Hai to be so direct. Then, he smiled and said, &Quot; Sir, you’re really a straightforward person. I won’t beat around the bush then. I invited you here this time because I have something to discuss with you. I wonder if I can have the honor of working with you. &Quot;
Zhao Hai had already guessed this. Other than the things in his hands, he had not shown anything worth thinking about. Hence, he was not surprised to hear Charlie say this. He looked at Charlie and said,”May I know what business Your Highness wants to cooperate with me on?”
Charlie looked at Zhao Hai and smiled, ” &Quot; I know that you’ve been working on some business with Sheila hotel and the kalchi family recently. I’m also very excited about the milk wine and hotpot business. I wonder if you can cooperate with me, Sir? ”
Zhao Hai looked at Charlie and said, ” Your Highness, to be honest, it’s not impossible to work with you. Now, I can provide 55000 Chinese Bellfish and 50000 catties of milk wine to Sheila hotel and the Carrack family every month. This is not my limit. I can also provide 45000 Chinese Bellfish and 50000 catties of milk wine for Your Highness every month. This is already my maximum output. I wonder if your Highness is satisfied with it? ”
Zhao Hai’s words were actually a test. If Charlie wanted to cooperate with him in the business of the huoding fish and milk wine, then he must grab the share of the Karche family that had Sheila hotel. Perhaps Charlie was already prepared to offend those two families. However, Zhao Hai said this because he wanted to see if Charlie would still offend those two families if he could avoid offending them. If Charlie wanted to grab the share of those two families, Zhao Hai might have to think about it. This was because it would mean that Charlie did not know the immensity of heaven and earth, and there was a high possibility that he would have a grudge against the two families.
Hearing Zhao Hai’s words, Charlie was stunned for a moment, but then he said with a happy expression,”Is what teacher said true?”
“I wouldn’t dare lie to Your Highness, of course it’s true.” Zhao Hai nodded. Seeing Charlie’s expression, Zhao Hai could more or less guess the answer.
Sure enough, Charlie said with a smile, ” good, that’s the best. Please rest assured, Sir. I’ll pay the same price to the carci family and the Sheila family for all your goods. I’ll definitely not let you suffer a loss. &Quot;
