How do you thank her?
Si Mu only felt that he was splashed with cold water by someone's head. The warmth in his heart immediately dissipated around and came out from his bones.
The skin bag was empty, so his voice was buzzing, and he said vaguely: "how do you want me to thank you?"
She saved Si mu, not because of her feelings, not even because of her allies. She wants compensation!
She wants to pay for his medical treatment, make up for his withdrawal, and calculate the alimony for divorce after marriage!
Now, how can she save money for him?
She didn't give him half a favor. Everything she did was purposeful.
Si Mu only feels that this poisonous snake is vicious and insidious. Tear open her flesh, her blood must be cold, no half temperature.
"If things are successful, the governor's order will not change. He will go to Nanjing for at least three years. Yuecheng military government is yours." Gu Qingzhou said slowly, "I know that the taxes handed over to Nanjing are insignificant, and the rest are in the hands of the military government."
Si Mu gripped the steering wheel of the car.
He was very hard, his slender knuckles turned white, and his voice became more and more dull: "what do you want?"
"I want 10% of the military government's tax revenue in these three years." Gu Qingzhou road.
Si Mu took a breath.
Sure enough, the lion opened his mouth!
"... and I don't want the governor to know." Gu Qingzhou continued, "the governor likes me very much. I don't want to disappoint the governor. I'll help you apply for the power to try in the public concession this time. If you agree to my conditions, I promise you can win the lawsuit."
After a pause, Gu Qingzhou continued, "you should believe me. Whether money is important or the case is important, you should weigh it in your heart."
Si Mu's thin lips closed tightly, his feet stepped on the accelerator, and the car quickly returned to the new house.
He stopped talking.
Si Mu will not agree to this. It's not easy to hide 10% of the tax from your father.
What makes simu more angry is that he thought she was helping him. He was warm in his heart. As a result, she was just planning.
Hatred and embarrassment seethed in his chest. Si Mu clenched his hand and didn't say a word.
After getting off the bus, Gu Qingzhou asked, "you don't agree, do you? However, you can change your mind at any time. My proposal is always valid."
Si Mu strode in.
Gu Qingzhou had no words.
The next day, Yuecheng military government received a formal notice from the Ministry of justice of Nanjing: the case of Si Mu's forced death of Nie Yun was tried in the court of Shanghai public concession on the ninth day of February of the 15th Gregorian calendar, that is, the eighth day of the first month of the old Gregorian calendar. Si mu, as a defendant, should attend as scheduled.
After the matter was completely settled, the special commissioner returned to Nanjing.
However, the chief of the Quartermaster Department secretly went to Yuecheng and met with the governor.
"Mr. President still prefers the inspector general." The chief said, "the influence of your son's case should be eliminated in any case. Once this matter is settled, the supervisor can take office after the 15th day of the first month without delay."
That's what the president means.
The president hoped that the court would spare no effort to eliminate the impact of this incident, deal with the aftermath and win the lawsuit. In this way, the commander-in-chief can continue to take office, and the president still wants the commander-in-chief to be the commander-in-chief with a false name.
Because the other party came in secret, the commander did not make any arrangements and sent him away secretly.
He told Yan Xinnong and Si Mu about it.
"The case must be a complete victory!" The supervisor took out his utmost seriousness and never so carefully told Yan Xinnong and Si mu, "use all your strength to buy off the judge!"
Yan Xinnong nodded yes, but he felt thorny in his heart.
When returning to Yan residence, Gu Qingzhou came to dinner and happened to mention it.
Mrs. Yan and others were amazed at Gu Qingzhou's right to apply to the public concession for trial.
"Light boat, I knew you had a spectrum in your heart. It turns out that you have been waiting for Wei Qingjia to do it!" Yan Yiyuan said happily.
Gu Qingzhou was a little pensive.
There was something in her heart that she didn't mention to anyone, including her adoptive father.
Yan Xinnong is also worried.
After dinner, Yan Xinnong said to Gu Qingzhou, "Qingzhou, come here."
Gu Qingzhou road is.
She went to Yan Xinnong's study, and her father and daughter talked privately.
Yan Xinnong knows that Gu Qingzhou has talents, especially Si mu, which proves that Gu Qingzhou's talents are not limited to medical skills and scheming. She can even do diplomacy.
The supervisor asked Yan Xinnong to handle the judge, but Yan Xinnong was not sure.
He told Gu Qingzhou the secret.
Yan Xinnong said to Gu Qingzhou, "you know, the military government has a general relationship with foreigners these years. The governor hates foreigners very much and is motivated to eliminate foreigners. We also disdain dealing with arrogant foreigners. Now it seems that the military government still needs this diplomatic relationship if it wants stability."
Judging from this incident, Yan Xinnong felt that if the military government wanted long-term stability, it would either have a good relationship with Nanjing or recruit talents who knew politics and diplomacy.
At a loss this time, Yan Xinnong realized his shortcomings.
"There's nothing wrong with learning from foreigners and mastering them." Gu Qingzhou said, "the military government is not the Qing court."
Yan Xinnong nodded.
He also asked Gu Qingzhou, "in terms of diplomacy, you know more people than us. Do you have a good plan?"
Gu Qingzhou pondered slightly.
After a pause, she asked Yan Xinnong, "adoptive father, do you believe me?"
"This is natural." Yan Xinnong said.
If you were skeptical in the past, you are now very confident.
"Then you should do it according to your method. Buy it when you should, and win it when you should. On my side, you can give it to Si mu. I have something to talk with him and let him beg me." Gu Qingzhou road.
"What are you talking about?" Yan Xinnong asked.
Gu Qingzhou tells Yan Xinnong what she and Si Mu said.
She wants 10% of the tax, otherwise she won't do it, but Si Mu is hesitating.
Yan Xinnong was slightly surprised.
"... if you can save Si mu, you can talk to the governor about it this time, and the governor can agree." Yan Xinnong said, "Yuecheng has a prosperous economy and more taxes than you think. The military governor's jurisdiction is peaceful and rich, and the military capital is sufficient. Let alone 10% or 50%, it will not cause any loss to the military government."
Gu Qingzhou shook his head.
"I want simu." Gu Qingzhou said, "I know the governor will be willing. Talking to the governor may require more money, but I don't want to. I'm not afraid the governor will be disappointed with me, but I'm thinking about Si mu."
"What happened to Si mu?" Yan Xinnong was puzzled.
Gu Qingzhou pondered slightly.
Yan Xinnong said that the military government was stable and rich, and Gu Qingzhou thought of Si Xingyu.
There was a gap in her mind, and the memory poured into her heart like a flood. Her heart was heavy.
After a while, Gu Qingzhou repressed his emotions and said to Yan Xinnong, "I think Si Mu is a little moved about this..."
Yan Xinnong still doesn't understand.
Not to mention Si mu, even Yan Xinnong was very moved. What's strange about this? Gu Qingzhou's hand is amazing.
"When I did this, I didn't consider the interests, just because I didn't want Sima and the governor's house to be calculated. If someone calculated, I would fight back. It's customary. I'm not for anyone, and I can't really stand idly by. But I don't want Sima to be moved." Gu Qingzhou road.
Yan Xinnong is back now.
He suddenly understood Gu Qingzhou's concerns.
"... I agreed with simu that it would be a three-year engagement. It's best to spend these three years quietly. He married a bunch of aunts and children in groups. I'll do my own thing and don't disturb him. After three years, it's best for us to fulfill the contract calmly." Gu Qingzhou road.
She didn't want to impress simu.
Si Mu's moving will make him fall in love. Gu Qingzhou is not sure whether Si mu can overcome the obstacles in his heart. He really falls in love with Si Xingyu's woman, but after being moved for a long time, he will always have other emotions.
Gu Qingzhou doesn't need another man to love her.
She's not narcissistic. She thinks simu will love her. She's just killing this possibility!
There is no possibility, there is no bud.
Gu Qingzhou has a purpose for Si Mu's affairs, so Si Mu won't think about it.
"Si Mu and I are destined to have nothing. I won't love him and I want to avoid him falling in love with me." Gu Qingzhou said, "draw a clear line with him on the boundary between Chu River and Han Dynasty, so as not to say that I have lost him in the future."
Yan Xinnong nodded.
"Light boat, this is very good. There is no unprovoked dispute." Yan Xinnong said.
Gu Qingzhou made a sound.
Yan Xinnong said, "do you have a way?"
"I have a way to win without losing!" Gu Qingzhou raised his eyes and smiled. "Don't worry, adoptive father."
Yan Xinnong asked, "what method?"
"I want to sell it." Gu Qingzhou smiles.
Yan Xinnong also said she was slippery.
After the conversation, Yan Xinnong felt much less pressure. Yan Xinnong is also a military staff officer and is not very good at politics. This time, he relied more on Gu Qingzhou.
Gu Qingzhou said he was sure to win, and Yan Xinnong had a bottom in his heart.
According to his original plan, he went to Shanghai years ago.
When Gu Qingzhou returned to his new house, Si Mu sat on the sofa in the living room and smoked.
He thought a lot.
"The governor must go to Nanjing to take office!" This is Si Mu's main idea.
His ability to be a military commander cannot be recognized or recognized by him alone.
Si Mu needs a chance to experience.
This opportunity was missed. He couldn't win Si Xingyu in his life.
So simu needs to win the case.
Seeing Gu Qingzhou coming back, Si Mu pressed his cigar into the ashtray and stood up.
"Please sit down. I have something to tell you." Si Mu said that his words were very peaceful and there was no anger.
Gu Qingzhou sat on the sofa opposite him.
He was expressionless and opened his mouth like a statue: "I agree with your proposal. This is a document. Have a look."
He not only agreed, but also prepared the documents.
Within the jurisdiction of the military government, there are more than one Yuecheng, and the tax revenue is huge enough to support one army and horse. As Yan Xinnong said, the military government is so rich that 10% of the tax for three years is set aside for Gu Qingzhou, which is not a big deal for the Secretary's family.
Not to mention the military governor's house, as long as Si Mu takes over the military government, he can privately deduct the money to Gu Qingzhou.
"If you agree, sign it." Si Mu Dao.
