Chapter 718: Puzzle

"Sorry for keeping the two of you waiting for a long time."
When the tea that had been brought up but had not been touched by the two had completely cooled down, Lu Li's voice slowly sounded, breaking the silence in the living room.
"finally come."
Before the two of them looked at Lu Li, Tan Long who had been guarding the side immediately heaved a sigh of relief. He couldn't help but wipe the sweat from his sideburns and looked at Lu Li who walked in from outside.
"Not long waiting."
"I have seen Mr. Lu."
Zhang Zhiming and Hou Baye stood up to meet Lu Li at the same time. Although they spoke different words, they both expressed a meaning.
That is submissive.
Although the situation in Yanzhou today is far from what Lu Li initially envisioned, in a sense, the plan he had promised has failed, but this does not seem to affect the'cooperative relationship' between the two parties.
"You two don't need to be cautious, please sit down." Lu Li arched his hands and smiled and let them sit down.
The two masters of the family sat down silently.
Lu Li sat on the main seat and signaled that Tan Long, who was about to retreat, was listening here.
Tan Long was slightly startled, but then he showed ecstasy.
Mr. Lu, is this admitting me? Planning to take this opportunity to train me?
Many thoughts flashed in his mind, but Tan Long still restrained the ecstasy on his face very well and walked to Lu Li's side, watching his nose and nose, pretending that he did not exist.
Regarding Lu Li's request for a guard to listen to, Zhang Zhiming was a little unhappy, but he still hid it and proactively said, "Manager Lu, it has been so long. You contacted me. You should make a decision?"
Decision?
Hearing the words, Baye Hou glanced at him blankly, with a sneer at the corner of his mouth.
This Zhang family’s ‘wolf cub’, I’m afraid I still don’t understand what happened, right?
Even if Lu Li had given you any promise before, at this stage, this promise is destined to be impossible to fulfill.
Running to the door to ask the decision, in fact, it was to make Lu Li take the initiative to make a choice.
"It's really looking for death to find a home." Baye Hou shook his head slightly, making no comment on Zhang Zhiming's behavior.
Zhang Zhiming also ignored the ‘old man’, but stared at Lu Li with scorching eyes. The uncomfortable ill-air aura completely receded, making his whole person a little more sharp.
"Patriarch Zhang is still impatient."
Lu Li tapped the handrail lightly with his index finger, speaking at a gentle temperature, and he couldn't hear the joy or anger. After a pause, he continued: "Now Yanzhou has become like this. It is a completely defenseless dinner plate. What does Patriarch Zhang want? This kind of delicacy, just get it by yourself, when is my turn to make a decision?"
Just as Zhang Zhiming's expression changed slightly and he wanted to refute, Baye Hou followed Luli's words with a low smile: "Although Patriarch Zhang is young, his appetite is huge. In just ten days. Inside, he swallowed at least five middle-class families' legacy industries, and even mastered a secret business road with the'Yuncheng'. With such a rich harvest, wouldn't it be enough to feed you?"
After speaking, Baye Hou pulled his gaze back from Lu Li and took a deep look at Zhang Zhiming: "Patriarch Zhang is too greedy."
"That is what the Zhang family deserves."
Zhang Zhiming did not deliberately deny this in front of Lu Li.
Because he knew very well that even though Lu Li had been staying in King Yan's Mansion all these hours, the furious local killers were all his eyes, eyes and eyes.
In a short period of time, these territorial killers will replace Tianbu's functions to some extent, even if he really conceals it, he absolutely cannot hide it from Lu Li.
More importantly, although Zhang Zhiming was still a little afraid of Lu Li, he was not afraid of Ba Ye at all.
For a while, when all the other families are dormant, as the two collaborators chosen by Lu Li, there will always be some ‘friction’ when splitting the results.
If Lu Li would get angry because of Zhang Family's actions, then the Hou Family's behavior could be called heinous.
At present, the middle-class family has not finished dividing the cakes, but the Hou family has eaten at least one-fifth, more than ten times more than those obtained by the Zhang family. When the Hou family has completely digested this industry, its power can at least expand to more than twice the current level.
What is this concept?
Everything that the Hou family possesses will be able to recruit at least ten more masters, hundreds of them are immortal!
Even if they were to cultivate them personally, those huge industries would be enough to support them to raise two more "hou masters".
This gain, even Zhang Zhiming's view, is a little jealous.
So he didn't worry about Lu Liqiu's final account.
If you really want to settle the account, you must first find the Hou family, and it is not their turn to be the Zhang family.
Thinking of this, Zhang Zhiming’s expression became much more relaxed. He looked at Lu Li, who didn’t speak any more.
It stands to reason that the current gains of the Zhang family are enough to pay for Mr. Lu’s promise, but...accepting this industry, and also It is necessary to contribute to the stability of Yanzhou. The Zhang family has taken a lot of risks, so this gain should be taken by the Zhang family."
"The decision I came to ask about today is what Manager Lu really promised."
"I have handed in information about those families in advance, and the Zhang family has done what Mr. Lu needs me to do."
"Then now..."
Zhang Zhiming was still talking, but suddenly saw Lu Li who was sitting on the main seat stop knocking on the armrest, and glanced at him.
It was this look that made Zhang Zhiming like falling into an ice cave, as if he saw his mysterious and powerful ‘teacher’!
how is this possible?
Thinking of the true identity of his teacher, Zhang Zhiming suddenly felt that his ideas were a bit absurd.
After forcibly calming down, Zhang Zhiming took a deep breath and confirmed that Lu Li had not wasted this time, and his strength had become stronger again.
"Mr. Lu, I think the basis of cooperation is trust." After a little careful consideration of the words, Zhang Zhiming also reduced his tone. Instead of forcibly placing the status of the two parties on an'equality' position, he gave in a bit. As if speaking to a superior person, he said cautiously: "The Zhang Family trusts in the Yan Palace, and I trust Manager Lu, so in the Yan Palace and..."
When he said this, he paused as if he was stuck, and then said helplessly: "Neither I nor the Zhang family stood by when you needed help the most."
This sentence was a little cautious, but in fact, he even wanted to swallow it back if it was not necessary.
It is a pity that the Zhang family's current power is not strong enough for some things that must be accomplished.
In the process of competing with the Hou Family for the victory, Zhang Zhiming had also exhausted his organs, but in the end he found reluctantly that no matter how unpredictable his methods, the Hou Family's countermeasures were completely ignored.
The Hou family did not pay attention to the things that he deliberately arranged.
Whenever they find something weird, they would rather abandon the benefits that they can get from the hands and pursue other gains instead of giving him a chance.
And this kind of ‘shameless’ behavior that relied on the powerful family power just restrained all the cards Zhang Zhiming could use now.
So even if Zhang Zhiming showed the power of ‘fear’ Lu Li, he still chose to ask him for what he deserved.
"You are right."
At this moment, after thinking about it, Lu Li nodded and said: "When Prince Yan's Mansion and I needed help the most, Zhang Er Shao extended a helping hand. Even if this is a trivial help, it still cannot eliminate your support to Yan. The kindness of the palace."
Zhang Zhiming frowned.
He didn't expect Lu Li to speak so well, instinctively thinking that there would be some traps behind this.
But before he could speak again, Lu Li already said, "Everything in those four houses belongs to the Zhang family."
As soon as he said this, Baye Hou raised his head and glanced at Lu Li, but immediately looked away.
Because of the four mentioned by Lu Li, two of them have been snatched by the Hou family.
What does this mean?
Give the Hou's offense?
Baye Hou began to think about Lu Li's intentions.
But immediately, Lu Li's words let him dispel his doubts.
"Everything has its value."
"I believe that the value of these four houses is better than anyone else."
"After tasting the food, it's our turn to talk about the issue of'cost'."
Lu Li was still smiling, but with his voice, Zhang Zhiming suddenly felt that this smile was a little ‘terrible’.
He groaned, suppressing the strangeness in his heart, and said in a low voice, "President Lu, please solve your confusion."
