Chapter 424: The Purpose of Each Man

The news that Su Lan had become an earth immortal also spread rapidly in Chang'an.

Next, Su Mansion is naturally in an endless stream, receiving guests from all over the world, these guests are friends of Su Mansion for many years, naturally it is impossible to slack off easily, otherwise it will be easy to be criticized.

Su Lan also did not hesitate to use his own experience, pointing out these people who rushed to make them able to break through the level smoothly.

After all, this is an earth immortal, and its cultivation and knowledge are naturally amazing, and if you can get a point or two, it will also be quite helpful to those people.

Everything looks lively.

After sending one person away, Su Lan turned his eyes, but noticed a person in the distance, who looked lonely and was staying in the corner drinking alcohol.

Su Lan took a step, walked in front of the man, and asked with a surprised expression, "Isn't this Minister Yang, why are you here?"

That's right, the one who stayed here to drink was the former prime minister Yang Chenglong, but unfortunately since the Yang Zishan case that day, Yang Chenglong resigned because of this, and his subordinates and friends also chose to leave for various reasons, leaving him here alone, with a decadent look on his face.

"Is there anything wrong with me coming here?"

Yang Chenglong reprimanded directly with a cold face, the status of an earth immortal, which is extremely noble to others, is also ordinary to him, and there is no emotional fluctuation.

Su Lan didn't care, and still said with a smile: "It's nothing." It's just that I'm curious, weren't you the prime minister before, and why is the prime minister a different person now?"

"The term of office has expired, and it is time to abdicate. My dynasty is not as good as the Song Dynasty, once the term of office is up, it should naturally abdicate, right?" Yang Chenglong's expression was still indifferent, and he didn't have the kind of respectful appearance that everyone else had.

Such a performance made Su Lan a little excited, but said: "Since this is the case, don't you plan to become the prime minister again?"

"What do you mean?" Yang Chenglong finally showed a little surprise and looked at Su Lan with vigilance.

Su Lan replied: "It's nothing. I just feel that with your talent, it is really condescending to be only the prime minister. ”

"Haha. The position of prime minister has been condescended, so I really can't think of any position in the world that can be higher than the prime minister. Yang Chenglong shook his head and replied self-deprecatingly, his eyes fell on Su Lan, but he said, "It's just that I advise you, don't fight those bad ideas." Don't forget about the Blue Dragons!, understand?"

In the Chinese Dynasty, the prime minister is already the pinnacle of the Executive Yuan, and if you want to rise further, there will be no other position except the post of prime minister. But now that the position of prime minister is occupied by Xiao Feng, how can Yang Chenglong have ideas, and how dare he get involved with this son?

"You're bothered about this, I'll pay attention to it. Su Lan smiled, and his face was also solemn.

For him, Xiao Feng has always been an obstacle in front of him, and if he wants to accomplish his goal, he can't finally get around this mountain.

Now that they have met, Yang Chenglong is not willing to continue to stay here, and after instructing the attendants to send the congratulatory gifts, he bowed his hands and said goodbye: "I still have something to do, so I will leave here." Then he waved his sleeves and left.

Su Lan's gaze was too sharp, which always made Yang Chenglong feel like he was being spied on, and he just wanted to get out of here quickly.

Su Lan smiled and stared at Yang Chenglong's distant figure, but thought in his heart: "Although you try your best to hide it, the desire hidden in your heart, but tell me clearly that you are not reconciled." And what would you do now? I'm curious about that. Just as he was leaving, a voice came from the side.

"Dare to ask you, is it Su Lan?"

Su Lan turned sideways, and saw Nakang Guangsha squeezing away everyone all the way, looking at him with a flattering face, and replied, "That's right." And aren't you the Kang Guangsha that my little brother said he said?"

"That's right, it's me. Kang Guangsha was overjoyed, just because the earth immortal in front of him still knew his name.

Su Lan asked, "Then I don't know what you came to me for?"

"It's-"

Kang Guangsha was stunned for a moment, but he didn't expect Su Lan to be so direct, he rubbed his hands and pondered for a moment, and then said, "Well, this." In fact, I want to ask you to do me a favor and bring down that Zhang Shangying. His face suddenly sank, and then he scolded: "I was already able to promote the accession to the throne, but that Zhang Shangying has repeatedly done bad things for me." If I don't bring him down, how can I get rid of the hatred in my heart?"

When talking about Zhang Shangying, Kang Guangsha gritted his teeth, obviously hated Zhang Shangying to the core, otherwise he would not have asked Su Lan for help.

"Help? I have nothing to do with you, so why should I help you?"

Su Lan snorted lightly, still maintaining his unfathomable appearance before.

Kang Guangsha suddenly became nervous, and hurriedly said, "Indeed, I have nothing to do with you. But I swear, if you can help me bring down that Zhang Shangying, then I can also help you and help you monopolize all the trading houses in Chang'an. Is this okay?"

"Monopoly firms, what do you mean by that?" Su Lan's face condensed slightly, revealing a little vigilance.

Although this Kang Guangsha was irritable and a little eager, he was able to explain his purpose in one word, which surprised Su Lan.

Kang Guangsha smiled: "Isn't it obvious? I have observed before that among the people you invited, all of them are the presidents of various commercial houses in Chang'an. These governors were found in various industries such as textiles, steel, grain, cloth and even trains. And your Su family, at the beginning, made a fortune by monopolizing the food supply of the Huaxia Army. It's just that the food produced by that land is already limited, and if it wants to continue to expand, it will inevitably go deeper into other industries. And the reason why you are holding this banquet today is not because you want to be able to integrate the long-term security industry so that it is convenient for you to act?"

After a pause, Kang Guangsha took a cup of tea, moistened his throat, and continued: "It's a pity that the lord has issued a ban, and even nationalized all the textile industry, the steel industry, and even the railways and ships, and prohibited private establishments. How can you accept it with your ambitions? Naturally, you want to repeal these bans so that you can continue to expand your business territory. Isn't it?"

"Ha! I didn't expect you to have some vision. Su Lan laughed and looked at Kang Guangsha with interest.

As a businessman, Su Lan has no interest in politics, and the reason why he became a parliamentarian before was because of the importance of parliamentary relations, involving forces from all over the country, if he did not participate in it, he would definitely be marginalized and isolated.

In fact, just as he expected, the development of this parliament is really amazing, not only gathering talents from all over the country, but also the various policies and decisions it announces, which are enough to affect the whole country, and make those people also shocked.

As an existence determined to become a businessman like Fan Li and Lu Buwei, Su Lan did not want to live in the Chang'an area, and wanted to extend his hand to various places, even enough to control the entire country.

Kang Guangsha replied confidently: "And I can help you achieve this goal." ”

"Good. Since you have this confidence, then I don't mind helping you. Su Lan replied.

Now that he has the promise, Kang Guangsha is no longer entangled, he doesn't know what Su Lan plans to do, whether he will directly send someone to assassinate, or take various means of rejection, these are not things he can know, but as long as he can solve that Zhang Shangying, it will be the best for him.

After sending Kang Guangsha away, Su Lan also brought Su Wei over and asked, "That Zhang Shangying, do you know it?"

"It's nature. It's just that brother, you suddenly asked him, what is the purpose?" Su Wei asked, curious.

Su Lan replied: "Ha." Naturally, he was entrusted by Nakang Guangsha!"

"Kang Guangsha, didn't expect it to be him?" Su Wei was suddenly shocked, and then looked at Su Lan with a worried face, and asked, "Could it be that the elder brother has already agreed to him?" With Kang Guangsha's intolerant character, he categorically couldn't tolerate Zhang Shangying, and he made a request to Su Lan, which was naturally ill-intentioned.

Su Wei was afraid that his brother would attack Zhang Shangying.

After all, he had also worked with Zhang Shangying for a period of time, and he couldn't bear to see Zhang Shangying being suppressed.

Su Lan looked at Su Wei's expression in his eyes, and then said, "Ha." Even if he really agreed, when and how to act, I still took the lead, just by him Kang Guangsha, how could he question me? It's just Su Wei-" After a pause, Su Lan's eyes became sharp, staring at Su Wei; "Looking at your appearance, aren't you worried about the safety of that Zhang Shangying? You have to remember! The shopping mall is like a battlefield, and the most taboo thing is to hesitate." Do you understand?"

"Brother, I understand what you said. ”

Su Wei's body trembled, and he hurriedly replied: "It's just that he has helped me many times, if you just watch him being suppressed, it's still a little unbearable." Facing Su Lan's forced gaze, he wandered his gaze and didn't dare to look directly at Su Lan.

People always have all kinds of emotions, this is human nature, you don't need to care. ”

Su Lan instead stretched out his hand and patted Su Wei's shoulder, although Su Wei looked a little scared, he still straightened his waist and looked at his brother: "It's just that you have to understand that feelings and careers are two different things." Remember, don't let your feelings slack off your career, you know?"

"My brother taught me a lesson, and I understood. Suvi breathed a sigh of relief.

For his strange and familiar brother, his feelings are also extremely complicated, on the one hand, the other party is really thinking about the Su family, but on the other hand, he feels embarrassed because the other party attacked his friends.

After all, Su Lan acted ruthlessly, and if he hurt his friends because of this, it would not be good.

In such a situation, Su Lan didn't know what he should do, so he could only take one step at a time.

Seeing that Su Wei had regained his composure, Su Lan also encouraged: "Very good." Since you understand my painstaking efforts, that is enough. Pointing to the people who were still walking into the house in the distance, he advised: "And now that those guests have arrived, you should not delay here, and go and meet them quickly." If you let them feel sluggish, that's not good. ”

"Don't worry, brother, I'll pay attention. ”

Su Wei immediately turned around and left, just standing beside Su Lan, he felt extremely pressured, and just wanted to find a chance to leave from here.
