Chapter 850： looking for a shield

"I know very well. The general has eaten all kinds of food in Xianhailou, and there are many new recipes that have not been released. The general has also eaten them first. The taste is delicious, and the shrimp that slips into the mouth is soft, glutinous and tender. .” Zhan Chi shared the delicious food with him without hesitation.

"...Is beheading the general just kidding me?"

"Why did Master Li say that?"

"General Zhan has a close relationship with Xianhai Tower. Bei Li intends to sell Xianhai Tower. Not only does General Zhan not tell me about the inside story of Xianhai Tower, but he fights sloppy eyes with me. Don't forget General Zhan." It’s fine if Bei Li Fu Rao beheads the general, but if Bei Li loses money, the beheading general will also be punished.” Li Mu was a little anxious in his heart, and clarified what he said when a few words didn’t fit.

Zhan Chi thought for a while, then suddenly smiled: "Master Li, you are in charge of the imperial business, and this general is the one who holds the knife. The Beili business loses money, and even if you go around eight hundred turns, you can't be punished by this general."

"Even if you can't be punished, as a Beili native, you have to think about the interests of Beili, how can you just ignore it?" Li Mu stood up angrily.

"Li Mu, you have been in charge of the Imperial Business for ten years, and you need to ask a general who knows nothing about business for commercial interests. It seems that you, the head of the Imperial Business, should be replaced." Zhan Chi sneered.

Li Mu's face darkened, he didn't expect Zhan Chi to jump into the pit at all.

"The emperor sent this general to protect Mr. Li. I don't understand business matters, let alone participate in any decisions." Zhan Chi finished speaking and before Li Mu could speak, he said, "If this general is good at doing business, how could the imperial merchants have done it ten years ago?" It fell on Mr. Li's head."

Li Mu tightened his fingers in his sleeves, and took a deep breath: "General Zhan came back from Xianhai Tower?"

"good."

"Is the Eighth Prince still in Xianhai Tower?"

"I don't know, I haven't seen it, I'll find it myself."

"..."

The emperor really sent him a good guard!

Zhan Chi stood up and yawned: "If Mr. Li is fine, I will go back and catch up on my sleep."

"I am going to visit the Eighth Prince in Xianhai Tower, and General Zhan will accompany me."

sleep? He didn't sleep well, and he didn't want to be safe.

Zhan Chi yawned two more times in a row, a little reluctantly, and followed Li Mu downstairs.

Who could Li Mu be more satisfied with with that little thought?

Going to look for the eighth prince is just to find someone who can be used as a shield in the future when he returns to Beijing.

If he was involved in the matter of Xianhai Tower, as long as he said the last thing, if something happened in the future, Li Mu would definitely push all the responsibility on him.

Zhan Chi got on his horse, and Li Mu got into the carriage.

Zhan Chi couldn't help but sneer at the hurried appearance.

The eighth prince is bloodthirsty, and Li Mu dared to ask the eighth prince for such a thing. It should be like this.

Li Mu and his party arrived at Xianhai Tower and the sun had already set.

Li Mu visited the Eighth Prince, but he didn't expect that the Eighth Prince was not in Xianhai Tower at all, and his face was filled with sadness.

As soon as he came down from upstairs, he saw Lord Feng of Nanyuan and Wang Li of Dongyi coming in from the door, and his heart skipped a beat.

How did these two get together?

Could it be that the two countries came together to ask Gu Shuo to buy Xianhai Tower?

Old Prince Feng has always been changeable, if he doesn't pay close attention, he will most likely be biased towards Dongyi.

Thinking of this, Li Mu hurried forward: "Prince Feng."

Old Prince Feng was also very surprised to see Li Mu coming here: "Why is Master Li here?"

"Our eighth prince lives in Xianhai Tower. I have some matters to ask the prince for instructions. I didn't expect to meet the prince here." Li Mu glanced at Wang Li behind him: "What a coincidence, Mr. Wang."
