Brunhill doesn't have a sweet tooth.

As a woman, she always attaches great importance to her appearance, and is never stingy with makeup and beauty-related products, and is even willing to take a knife for it. But the elves are more admiring natural beauty, and it is already the bottom line to cover their appearance with surgical tools when they go out, and to use knives on their bodies and faces, including Brunhill, most elven women are not sensitive to this.

Even if he doesn't get fat by eating like the captain of the guard, Brunhill is by no means willing to be a sweet-toothed party, which involves the image of himself and even the consul, and there is no room for compromise.

What is commendable is that Brunhill is not angry with others like most women on a diet, and he is unhappy, so why let everyone be unhappy? In this regard, Brunhill thinks very openly, as long as the work itself is not a problem or too much, some details in the office can also be handled humanely. As a result, his subordinates were able to relax and feel more relaxed, and their work efficiency improved, and their love for Brunhill deepened.

But at this moment, Brunhill, who was accustomed to seeing the coffee tables of the pro-guard giants piled up with all kinds of sweets and regarded that scenery as everyday, couldn't help but feel greasy near the base of his tongue as he watched the guests enjoy the principality-style refreshments without changing their faces.

Several silver plates on the table were piled with various kinds of halwa sugar cakes, almost spilling onto the table. The principality-style tea stove made of gold is shining, the celestial crystal at the bottom is working, the boiling water steam rises to heat the white porcelain teapot, and the fragrance of strong black tea evaporates in the air.

A silver spoon scoops up a spoonful of jam and puts it in his mouth, and he holds up a finely carved crystal teacup to his lips. The rich black tea melts the jam on the tip of the tongue little by little, the soft sweetness flows through the throat, and in order to intensify the happy aftertaste, another piece of chocolate cold cake is sent into the mouth.

"Your dim sum chef is very good, I never imagined that I could taste a tea in a human country that tastes and looks more delicate than my own. ”

The guest sitting on the sofa said contentedly, but his face did not show the corresponding joy and sorrow.

The dense hair was neatly erected and did not cover his face, and the guest had no history of facial nerve disease, which was caused by his nature alone.

"I can get the praise of you, a rare guest. On behalf of the lucky one, I would like to thank you. ”

The other end of the couch. The relaxed and cheerful sound creates a striking contrast and gives a sense of family-like relaxation. But the moment he knew the identity of the voice's owner, no one would treat him as a good neighbor anymore.

President of the V.E consortium, the richest man in the world, a merchant of death, a monopoly capitalist, and a source of chaos in the world...... Siegfried Otto Lelin, who bears many "dazzling" titles, smiled charmingly and asked his guests:

"But it's more than praise. I hope that the following talks will be more satisfying to you. Your Excellency Director Dzerzhinsky. ”

The most feared man in the United Principality of All Rus' nodded. The expression of indifference did not change in the slightest.

The Supreme Governor of the Bureau for the Protection of Public Safety and Order, Oclana, was looking at his opponent with his piercing gaze, even though he had seen the portrait and report of the "nouveau riche" countless times, and now he saw this man with his own eyes. However, it was found that the impression obtained from the data was slightly different from that of the real person.

Li Lin's rise to prominence is unprecedented, and in just over a decade, he has developed a small trading company into the world's largest giant enterprise, from an unknown small businessman to an industrial giant with enough gestures to influence Charlemagne and the whole world. It is inconceivable that in the course of such a rapid rise, there is no violence and lawlessness involved. However, V.E has never been able to catch any evidence that can prove its dark side along the way, and it is all speculation and assumption, which does not damage the foundation of the consortium at all.

But the traces of those words, and the business involved in the principality, were enough to surprise the ruthless chief of the secret police.

Explosives, assassinations, arson, poisoning, kidnapping...... V.E. is so fierce that it can almost compete with Oklana, and even for the intelligence agency, the cyclical density of such behavior is quite high. These crimes are nothing compared to the large-scale smuggling of arms, stimulants, narcotics, industrial products, resources, monopolizing industries, and triggering wars for profit.

Any of the above things that are exposed will cause Li Lin and the consortium to suffer heavy losses or even collapse, but he has not hesitated to implement them, and has always done them very successfully. And many of these matters are quite short, taking into account the time between planning and preparation and starting to arrange, it can only be considered that many plans are carried out at the same time, and they are all parallel.

In Dzerzhinsky's opinion, this is simply crazy.

One of these alone would require a lot of effort and resources, and if one plan deviates, several plans related to it could be affected, eventually dragging Li Lin and his business empire into the abyss of ruin.

It can be asserted that even if businessmen are out-and-out interest animals, they will consider risks. Li Lin didn't seem to take the danger into account, and even enjoyed the excitement brought by the danger to carry out those plans. While going crazy like an adventurer, he makes a plan every time he makes a trickle, and every time he reaps great benefits, he leaves nothing behind.

What is he thinking, what is he seeking?

The man who wanders between madness and reason, playing with money, power, and human life, is he merely satisfied with the ever-increasing number on the list of possessions?

"Your Excellency, President. ”

Truncating more and more into speculative thinking, Dzerzhinsky leaned forward slightly, and said in a tone without heat:

"The cooperation between you and me has always been satisfactory. Your company's products are the world's first-class in terms of technical level and quality, and your shipping speed and follow-up service are impeccable. You've been one of the best people you've worked with so far. ”

From the mouth of the director, it is rare to hear compliments and politeness, but this is also a statement of facts, and the transactional tone continues:

"In view of our good history of cooperation, the Principality has decided to further deepen its cooperation with your company. ”

The breath on the other side began to speed up for a moment, and then it regained its steadyness.

And rightfully so.

"Deepening cooperation".

It doesn't sound bad, but it can mean a huge order and business opportunity, or it can mean a very good-looking, but deadly trap. Until the specifics of this intention are clarified, a shrewd businessman will never take a position lightly.

"I'd like to hear from you. ”

Those narrowed eyes opened slightly, and just this one action made Li Lin's appearance change dramatically.

The gracious old man was gone, and sitting on the couch was a mixture of the cunning of a fox and the greed of a lion, an outright profit animal. (To be continued......)
