www.lnmao.org, the fastest update to the latest chapter of My Wife is an Archon!
The meeting place of the five parties is Richard Hotel. Compared with Long'an Hotel, Richard Hotel is older and only has five floors. However, it is the oldest hotel in Longbei with a history of hundreds of years. Many firsts in history happened in this hotel.
More than 80 years ago, the Richard Hotel and the Governor's Mansion were connected to gas. More than 70 years ago, the Richard Hotel and the Governor's Mansion were connected to electricity and light bulbs were installed. And, basically, these changes in the Governor's Mansion, It was all made possible by Richard, the owner of Richard's Hotel.
The first movie show in Longbei more than 50 years ago was also screened in this hotel.
Nowadays, this hotel looks far less grand than the Long An Hotel from the outside. Moreover, old Richard has already died of illness and his descendants have returned to the south. It is just the golden signboard of "Richard Hotel" and a new operation. are still in use.
The interior of the hotel still maintains a very elegant and comfortable style. There are not many hotel rooms, but billiard rooms, bars, dance halls, chess and card rooms, theaters, coffee rooms, etc. are all available. This also makes these entertainment facilities a must-have for hotel guests. It can be fully used and you can comfortably spend a day in the hotel without leaving home. Therefore, the hotel rooms here are almost all private rooms for dandies.
Compared to the Long An Hotel, the real traditional upper class still recognizes the Rich Hotel as the Rich Hotel.
But now, no matter how reluctant the young masters are, they have to temporarily clear out the private rooms. The Richard Hotel has been temporarily requisitioned as the meeting place for the five-party meeting, and it is also a temporary residence for representatives of all parties.
Wang Ding lives here.
After a big gamble yesterday, Lu Ming came to the Richard Hotel early this morning.
In the conference room on the fifth floor, the seventh round of consultations of the five-party meeting was held.
Actually, it is a conference room, but it has the same style as the super VIP rooms in some membership clubs. It is not like a venue. Several representatives are sitting on the large and soft sofas, smoking cigars, drinking tea and chatting.
Qi Zongxun deliberately sat next to Lu Ming. The chips he lost in the last round yesterday were returned to him, so after the final settlement, he still won hundreds of thousands.
"Commissioner Zhang, I must treat you to dinner, and please give me this thin noodles!" Qi Zongxun whispered.
Lu Ming smiled: "Okay, let's take a look and coordinate the time."
In fact, Kim Hae-hyeok, the representative of Haiseo, was talking loudly about the urgency of reaching an agreement as soon as possible on the chaos in Ansan.
Six rounds of consultations have been held, but in fact nothing has been discussed at all, and the tone of the meetings has not been unified.
Because Montenegro and Longbei require that the issue of who represents the Ansan regime be resolved first.
If this fundamental issue is not resolved, it will be impossible to reach a consensus, let alone issue a joint declaration.
Lu Ming listened to Jin Haihe's speech. Although it was very empty and boring, but listening to what these people said, from some small details, he might be able to understand the real thoughts of Haixi's senior officials.
During the entire morning meeting, Lu Ming did not speak. He just listened to them and thought silently.
However, I could still occasionally notice Tojo Saburo's gloomy gaze, but Lu Ming just pretended not to see it.
……
The eighth round of meetings is scheduled for two days later.
Lu Ming returned to the study in the Snow Garden and did not come out for the whole afternoon. He kept writing something.
There was a gentle knock on the study door, and Bai Narcissus came in holding a plate of fruit.
"Sir, Zihan's parents are very good, and they asked me to send a message to say thank you for the gift."
Lu Ming was stunned before he realized that in the morning, he allowed Bai Shuixian and Xue Zihan to go home to visit their relatives. He gave them one hundred thousand yuan each to use to settle their relatives. Anyway, the money they just won was nothing. I feel bad. Yesterday, I gave a reward of 10,000 to the casino manager and dealer.
"Oh, is she back too? Why didn't you stay at home for one night? Is the family settled?"
Bai Narcissus said: "Actually, there is no arrangement. Sister Zihan and I have discussed it. From now on, we should give them some money every month. Otherwise, all the money given by the master will be given to them all at once, and there may not be any trouble. It is better to give some every month, which can really help them and will not cause a huge change in the living environment of the family. ”
Lu Ming nodded: "You are right."
Bai Narcissus glanced at Lu Ming's expression and said, "I heard from sister Zihan's family that one of her best friends in college is what the master calls her best friend. She has her birthday tomorrow and went to Zihan specially. The Han family is at home. Because Zihan dropped out of school suddenly, no one knows what happened to her. Her good friend has been to her house several times, and he went again this time to ask for news about Zihan. "But after a pause." Zihan told her family not to tell her former classmates that she was back."
Lu Ming's attention has returned to the materials on the desk, and he said casually: "Doesn't she want to go? Why? Plastic sisters?"
When he didn't get a response, Lu Ming looked up and then understood, "Oh, just ask her to go. It's rare to go back to Long'an and meet all my classmates and friends. Keep in touch." He glanced at Bai Narcissus and said with a smile: "And you, you have been seeing all your relatives and friends these days. I have no objection to you having a social circle. You should know this."
"Well, Zihan and I both know what the master is like, but what the master is doing here is a big deal. We don't want to affect the master's work, because we are afraid of being contacted by old friends and being noticed by interested people."
Lu Ming smiled and said: "It doesn't affect me. I am a secret police leader and have no reputation. I am not afraid of being said to be greedy for beautiful wives and concubines. And to be honest, if there is no one around me now, I feel uncomfortable when a whole family follows me." This is half true and half false. It seems that I have gradually become accustomed to being accompanied by a group of warblers wherever I go, and I have settled in several homes, all over the world.
Perhaps, the less you belong to this world, the more afraid you are of being alone.
Hearing Lu Ming say "a big family", Bai Narcissus' beautiful eyes lit up, and she breathed a small sigh of relief and whispered: "Then I'll leave and go to inform Zihan."
Lu Ming nodded.
As soon as Bai Narcissus left, Granny Camel Dragon knocked on the door and came in, handing over a secret message.
The secret message came from Wu'an County. The year before last, a new pawnshop was opened in Wu'an called "Da Ciye". In fact, it was the headquarters of the Military Intelligence Department. Moreover, it was personally selected by Lu Gaoyi, and only the same as Lu Gaoyi. Single line contact.
Of course, this intelligence point has always been silent and does not spy on intelligence. It just operates a **** shop normally.
He was not even asked to have contact with Lu Zhongduo, even in business.
A few days ago, Lu Ming ordered Lu Gaoyi to transfer this information point to the leader of "Commissioner Zhang".
Lu Ming did not really activate this intelligence team, he just asked them to investigate Boris's current situation. Moreover, it was not a secret investigation, just the news that could be known on the street.
This telegram is Boris’ current situation.
Looking at it, Lu Ming shook his head. It seems that this old man has developed feelings after all these years in Wu'an. He is planning to stay in Wu'an forever. He even bought a piece of Feng Shui for the cemetery.
