After inspecting the large construction site under construction, the sun was already overhead. Tang Youde and others invited Zhao Hao to take a bus to the Songyue Mountain Villa, seven miles away for lunch.

Songyue Mountain Villa was rebuilt on the basis of the original water war site and was temporarily housed by Tang Youde and others before the completion of the Xingang Fort.

It is said to be a temporary residence, but it is not ambiguous at all. The buildings of the original Water War Station were almost completely demolished, and only its foundation was used. So Fatty Tang said that it was rebuilt on the "foundation" of the Water War Station, which is not wrong.

The newly built Songyueshan Villa is a castle-like square surround building with a corner tower with flying eaves and brackets at each corner. There is a half-moon-shaped pond in front of it, and you must pass through a suspension bridge to enter.

"Old Tang's awareness of defense is still in place." When the carriage drove across the suspension bridge, Mr. Zhao quipped and said, "It seems that you don't have to worry about you being careless."

"Safety is the best in overseas people." Tang Youde smiled and said, "Only by living well can you continue to serve the young master."

"Hahaha." Zhao Hao got off the carriage with a loud laugh.

The carriage stopped in the yard. When Zhao Hao got off the car, he saw that the courtyard inside was staggered, with flowers and trees gurgling, and it felt like he was overseas and Jiangnan.

"Is it a lot of money?" Mr. Zhao asked with a smile.

"It was all the money we collected, but we didn't spend a penny in the market." Tang Youde hurriedly explained. He had scared the beagles of the Procuratorate and Supervision Commission for a while. While meeting Mr. Zhao, he quickly took the initiative to break up the matter so that the little wolf dogs would bite people in the future with this villa.

"Don't be so nervous." Zhao Hao smiled and patted Lao Tang's belly and said, "At your age, it's okay to be nice to yourself." Anyway, Jiang Xueying's offense is under the jurisdiction of all the offending things, so he can pretend to be good.

"Translator Kim also contributes money and effort, and is very enthusiastic." Tang Youde glanced at Kim Hee-sun, who looked like a pug, and added.

Zhao Hao knew that 80% of the besieged building was given to Tang Youde by Jin Hee-sun, at least it was a big deal.

He smiled and looked at Jin Hee-sun and said, "I'm sorry, there's something wrong with the capital, I'll leave you here for so long."

"Young Master is so serious. If you have the honor to serve the young master, you will be willing to wait for the villain." Jin Xishan was so happy that he nodded and said, "Besides, the villain is not idle either. He has learned a lot from Mayor Tang."

"Haha, you can still get along?" Zhao Hao asked with a smile.

"The old Jin people are good. They can get along well, and they can get along well." Tang Youde quickly invited Zhao Hao to the table.

The autumn is clear and the red maple is like fire, so lunch is arranged under a big maple tree in the yard.

There is a large mat with several feet of rush surface under the maple tree, and two rows of square dining tables are arranged on the mat from east to west. There is also a screen painted on the sunrise sea under the maple tree to the north. There is a slightly larger sandalwood table in front of the screen, which is the main seat of Mr. Zhao.

A maid Li Chao, wearing a yellow short top, a bright red skirt, a brightly colored satin edge on the cuffs and collar, knelt on the Lin mat to help Zhao Hao get rid of his boots. Then, under the guidance of two other maids, he sat in front of the screen.

The rest of the people also had maids serving, sitting in front of them. There were each set of rosewood dining tables and chairs, precious porcelain tableware, musicians played the mysterious crane zither from beside them, and graceful dancers danced in the atrium, which allowed Mr. Zhao and Zheng Ruozeng and others to appreciate the rich life of Li Chao for the first time.

"It's true that there is a Tang style. It's rare to see this kind of sitting on the ground in the Ming Dynasty." Zheng Ruozeng couldn't help but sigh. He had been recuperating in the capital for several months and was in good health. This time he had to follow Zhao Hao to go out to sea again.

The pretty maids started serving the dishes with trays. Copper bowls of all sizes quickly filled everyone's dining table... Well, it was because the dining table was a little smaller.

However, there are more than a dozen dishes on the table, steamed, roasted and hot, and the dishes are colorful, making them look very rich.

This made Zheng Ruozeng come back again and feel a little impressed by Li Chao. He said that it seems that people call themselves Xiao Zhonghua and are not completely bragging about Boyi.

Zhao Hao didn't make a fuss because this thing is generally not much different from Han Dingshi in later generations. It looks good, but it tastes the same.

Park Sung-sung boasted there with a proud look that this was prepared according to the standards of court cuisine. Even the maids who served the plates were selected according to the standards of court.

He was not bragging. Han Dingshi was indeed made by the nobles of the Li Dynasty imitated the palace cuisine. The reason why it looked shabby was because their kings were also shabby.

Moreover, among the officials and slaves on Danluo Island, there are many female relatives of two groups of adults. They are originally beautiful women of the Li Dynasty, and they intermarried with the Central Plains people on the island, and they really gave birth to some beautiful women who are not big-breasted faces.

Unfortunately, everyone always thought that Mr. Zhao was still young and no one gave him a few, which made Zhao Hao feel quite sad. After the Chinese New Year, he was about to 17.

But this age is indeed not suitable, so he is like a hungry ghost in lust. He withdrew his gaze from the bow behind the maid's skirt with some regret, and asked Park Sung-sung, who was chattering, and said, "Have you received the will of our dynasty?"

"I received it." Park Sung-sung nodded quickly and said, "Last month, Wang Jing sent an envoy to read out the Tian Dynasty's request for grain transportation. On the way, he would pass through Danluo and ask Jeju Patriarch to provide all convenient orders."

After a pause, he owed his body and said flatteringly: "He appointed the villain as the full-powered hospitality envoy, and he also said that this is the meaning of the Heavenly Dynasty."

"Well, I asked them to mention it." Mr. Zhao said lightly as if he was so cool.

Park Sung-sung and Kim Hee-sun naturally had another disgusting tone. In the eyes of the two, Mr. Zhao could actually control the will of the Emperor of the Celestial Dynasty, which was so powerful that it was unfathomable!

Such thighs must be firmly held tightly, and hair must be made on the thighs!

Of course, Zhao Hao would not tell Park Sung-sung that in order to get this order, he was knocked out another 20,000 taels.

Oh no, I was willing to contribute 18,000 taels of money to exchange for the golden signboard of the imperial pen titled "The Royal Shipping Corporation of Ming Dynasty"... The other 2,000 taels were tips for Eunuch Teng on duty.

~~

"In this case, everything you ordered should be done, right?" Zhao Hao asked with a smile.

"Of course, of course, if it is not done properly, the villain will not have the face to wander in front of the young master?" Park Sung-sung replied happily: "The two squads have said hello, and no one will say anything. Our observation commander also said that he will do his best to cooperate with the supply matters of the Celestial Chronicle fleet and order the villain to stay in Danluo Island forever, and will protect the Celestial Chronicle fleet in the future."

If it was put in the past, it would basically be exile, but now everyone envies him. Not to mention the observation service in the future, even the two nobles in Wang Jing would be polite to him.

"What is Li Mu's attitude? Are there two county magistrates?" Mr. Zhao asked a slightly sharp question. He thought that these three would be representatives, but he did not expect that none of them showed up.

"This..." Park Sung-sung sighed and said, "Mr. Li has a lot of complaints about renting a place as big as the Tianchao, and the Dajing County Supervisor is probably the same." As he said that, he hurriedly smiled, "But it doesn't matter, your arms can't force your thighs. Even if you feel a little uncomfortable at the beginning, you get used to it after a long time."

"For many things, we have to cooperate with local officials, and we still have to establish good relations with local officials." Zhao Hao looked at Tang Youde and said, "Look for an opportunity to visit local officials. We are a country of etiquette, so we should dress people with dresses."

"Yes." Tang Youde nodded quickly, saying that it is his strength to make friends and brothers.

Zhao Hao asked Park Sung-sing again: "How is the Danluo Chamber of Commerce organized? Are merchants willing to join the group?"

"Of course I'm willing!" Park Sung-xing was eager to change the topic and nodded quickly and said, "When they saw the Celestial Empire show great power and destroyed the Japanese pirates on the three islands, they thought they would have no business in the future. Now they heard from the villain that they had obtained the concession from the Celestial Empire, but they didn't sign up enthusiastically?"

"There are thirty-five companies who have registered, and each paid a membership fee of 20,000 taels as the initial fund." He said, and quickly took out a list from his sleeve and presented it to Zhao Hao. "In fact, there are more than thirty-five companies, but many companies cannot afford a membership fee of 20,000 taels, and several companies have joined the company."

"There are more good, and some of them are for them to do business." Zhao Hao smiled faintly and glanced at the list casually. He didn't know anyone except Kim Hee-sun. "The chamber of commerce is set up in Xingang Castle."

He said he looked at Kim Hee-sun, who was scratching his head anxiously, said, "How about Jin Translator come to be the president?"

Jin Hee-sun suddenly looked at the little stars and held his heart with both hands and said, "Thank you, my little man will definitely live up to what he hopes! He will devote himself to his life until he dies."

Although he was close to Park Sung-sung, he was not the most qualified maritime businessman. The top maritime businessman relationship was connected to the two classes of Seoul. Park Sung-sung could not drive them to travel across the ocean to contact the Japanese.

Zhao Hao knew this well, so he praised him as the president of Dongting Chamber of Commerce. Only when he was promoted by Liu Zhengqi and became the president of the Dongting Chamber of Commerce, only when such people with poor foundation and lack of expectations are taken to the throne will they firmly rely on themselves instead of always thinking about independence.

In order to make others more jealous of Kim Hee-sun, Zhao Hao added another price to him: "Is President Kim interested in serving as a municipal counselor and helping Mayor Tang with his help?"

"Young Master, is it true?" Jin Hee-sun shed tears of excitement. He thought that only the Celestial people could enter the municipal committee.

Little do they know that the position of municipal counselor has a united front nature and will fully consider the urban population component when choosing a candidate.

"Ye, how can you joke with the young master? Why don't you thank me?" Tang Youde smiled and said to Jin Xisun.

"Thank you, the young master, for your kindness and kindness. The villain swears to be loyal to your son and to the Jiangnan Group!" Jin Hee-sun quickly leaned over and kowtowed.

"Get up quickly." Zhao Hao raised his hand and helped him softly, and then gave a few words of warm encouragement. Just as he was about to concentrate on eating and filling his stomach, an employee quickly stepped in, came to Tang Youde's ear, and reported a few words softly.

Tang Youde glanced at Park Chengxing in surprise and quickly stood up to report: "Young Master, Li Mu's envoy is asking for a meeting."
