Arknights is too real, right?

The temperature in Victoria continues to drop, and according to locals, it is almost approaching the coldest period of the year.

The next morning.

Black Feather Grill.

"Oh, I'll go, oh ah ah ah ah ah ah, tsk tsk tsk tsk, it's so beautiful."

Tang Hua looked at the golden knife given by the princess on Xia Feng's desk and had been admiring it for half an hour.

For second-level nobles like the Liye family, who are neither high nor low, the honor bestowed by the royal family is simply more important than life. Of course, Tang De may feel that it is more important than life, but when he comes to Tang Hua, he still feels that his life is more important than life. A little more important.

Looking at this exquisite golden knife, Tang Hua's face was filled with envy.

"Xia Feng, Princess Weilin personally gave you the golden sword. You are about to take off."

Xia Feng sat behind his desk without even raising his eyelids.

"Isn't it just a broken knife? If it wasn't for the sake of pure gold, I would have thrown it away."

"Are you crazy? For the meaning of this knife, you won't exchange it for a truckload of gold."

Xia Feng closed the information in his hand.

"What nonsense does it mean? Take it away if you like, take it back to your house and display it."

Tang Hua chuckled. He was already used to Xia Feng's unique character.

"I don't dare. If it is discovered, others will think I stole it."

Xia Feng looked indifferent.

"I'm not kidding you. If you really like it, take it."

"No, no, now I just want to keep a low profile and make money, hehe."

After this period of time, Tang Hua's performance can be said to be highly recognized by Xia Feng. The newly built light manganese mineralization plant and source stone processing plant were basically handled by Tang Hua without any mistakes.

Including the [Eve Turtle Playground] in downtown Hapi, it is almost completed and will be officially opened in the spring.

In any case, now Tang Hua can be regarded as one of his own. At the low end, he is a complicit criminal gang, and at the high end, he is a good brother bound by interests.

"Tang Hua, didn't I tell you last time not to go to my barbecue restaurant all the time when you have nothing to do?"

"Isn't something wrong with me?"

"What's up?"

"Well, I came here mainly for two things."

Xia Feng stood up, took the initiative to make two cups of tea for himself and Tang Hua, sat back behind his desk, and spoke out.

"I probably know what's going on with you. Don't worry, the money I owe your family will be paid back immediately. My brother is rich now."

Xia Feng never paid the money he owed for the previous acquisition of the light manganese ore business. The main reason was that he really had no money.

But things are different now. In just one month, Black Feather's various businesses have taken off in full swing, including maritime smuggling, inland smuggling, origin stone processing, plus large and small entertainment venues in various cities.

Now he is basically making money every day, and the hundreds of millions he owes to the Li Ye family is not a big deal at all.

Xia Feng shouted towards the finance office.

"Nancy, calculate how much money you owe Mr. Tang Hua, and transfer it together with the interest."

"oh."

Tang Hua immediately waved his hand.

"No, no, I'm not here to ask for money. Xia Feng, you misunderstood."

Xia Feng picked up the teacup and took a sip, staring at him with some confusion.

"Then what are you doing here?"

Tang Hua clenched his fists, his expression a little nervous.

"It's like this. You also know that although our Liye family is a second-level noble, except for this light manganese mining area, it is not paid much attention by the royal family. I think that the nobles cannot be used as food after all. Although you don't treat me well. Thin, but I can still come up with more power.”

"Just tell me."

Tang Hua coughed lightly.

"Okay, let me tell you straight. I don't want the money you owed me before. I...I want to buy a stake in your Originium processing business."

This sentence really surprised Xia Feng.

"Tang Hua, you are a noble, and processing Source Stone is a crime that will cause you to lose your head."

Although Tang Hua was a little nervous, he still insisted.

"Aren't you about to become a noble?"

"Huh, I'm different from you."

After swallowing his saliva, Tang Hua was very persistent.

"Anyway, I've already thought about it. I'm not afraid of risks. There is only one male in my family in my generation. Since I can't honor my ancestors, let's accumulate more money for future generations."

Xia Feng probably understood.

In the face of aristocratic glory and money, Tang Hua chose the latter. Of course, it was not because he was greedy for money. In fact, the money Tang Hua received from participating in the light manganese ore business was enough for him to spend his life.

He did this because he wanted to take on more responsibilities and accumulate some wealth for the family to cope with changes. In general, Tang Hua grew up.

However, although he understood, Xia Feng still could not agree to his involvement in the Origin Stone. It was not because he was stingy, but because he understood that Black Feather was now being targeted.

If things go wrong, in the worst case scenario, he can give up everything without hesitation and find another way to make a comeback, but the Li Family Ye Clan cannot.

Haimen Gang, Black Steel International, Glasgow Gang, Snow Emperor Group, including Casimir's Li Shu, Xia Feng can let them join the Originium business, because this is what they eat, even if they don't touch the Originium. , their business is equally dangerous, and they are also prepared to deal with desperate situations.

Recalling the time when he forced Tang De to transfer light manganese ore, he always felt a little sorry for the Liye family. Now, he could no longer drag Tang Hua into trouble.

After thinking for a moment, Xia Feng sighed.

"Tang Hua, I can't let you join the Origin Stone business. This is too dangerous."

"I'm not afraid of danger!"

Xia Feng shook his head.

"Let's do this. I'll pay you back half of the money I owed you before, and the remaining half will count as your investment in the light manganese ore business. On the original basis, I'll give you another 10%. I'll also give you the amusement park in the city center directly. "

Adding another 10% to the profit of light manganese ore, judging from Heiyu's current business capabilities, this is already a very huge fortune, and this also made Tang Hua understand.

Xia Feng is not stingy, he just doesn't want to interfere with the Origin Stone.

"Okay, I understand, thank you."

To be honest, Tang Hua was very moved. Xia Feng allowed him to avoid risks while satisfying his request to make money. This was considered the most benevolent thing.

This also made Tang Hua understand that Xia Feng did not regard him as a tool, but as a brother.

After the matter was finalized, Xia Feng picked up the cup and took a sip of tea.

"Then, what's your second thing?"

When it came to the second thing, Tang Hua suddenly became a little nervous.

"This matter is not that important. It's just that I don't know what to say. It makes people feel embarrassed."

"What the hell?"

Tang Hua cleared his throat.

"My old man has been very ill recently. He said he didn't have long to live, and he only had one last wish."

Xia Feng calmly drank tea.

"Maybe he wants to have a grandson."

Tang Hua slapped his thigh.

"That's right, oh my, it makes me anxious to death. You said I don't even have a partner now, how can I turn him into a grandson?"

Xia Feng's intuition told him that this matter was not that simple, and Tang Hua did not come to him to complain.

"So, you want me to introduce you to someone?"

After hearing Xia Feng's words, Tang Hua suddenly turned red. He glanced at the finance room quietly, then put his head in front of Xia Feng and whispered.

"Well, Xia Feng, let me tell you straight. I, I, I think your bill collection girl is pretty good."

Xia Feng put down the tea cup and also lowered his voice.

"I also think Nancy is good, but it's not my decision."

Tang Hua winked and winked.

"I specifically asked her a few times before. She doesn't have a boyfriend. Xia Feng, you are the boss. Go and talk to me. Maybe she thinks I'm good too."

"I can't talk about this matter. Even if you think she is good and she thinks you are good, this matter can't be solved."

"Ah? Why?"

Xia Feng said earnestly.

"You have to make her brother think you are good, but based on my understanding of her brother, you are just a giant baby in his eyes."

Tang Hua straightened his back confidently.

"It's impossible, it's impossible. I'm quite confident in myself. Please help me ask Nancy's brother out, and I'll have a private chat with him."
