On the day she wore the book, she was hunted down with three oceans in her hand
Chapter 186 A "small gift"
Xiang Yu's eyes were full of gloom, and he really resented this disgusting world.
If the Japanese hadn't started a war and dragged everyone into trouble, his Xiang family would still be a well-known and wealthy family. How could he be controlled by these "overlords" with guns?
It's a pity that in such a world, people have to lower their heads under the eaves. He can only recognize it by pinching his nose!
"Misunderstanding?" Huo Zhan looked indifferent, glanced at Xiang Yu, noticed the unwillingness and gloominess in his eyes, hooked his lower lip, then slowly turned the teacup, placed it on the small table, and sighed: "That's it , that’s annoying.”
After saying that, Huo Zhan stood up and nodded politely towards Xiang Yu. Ignoring the coolness in his light eyes and the current situation, he behaved like a well-educated young man from an aristocratic family who was bidding farewell to "Shibo".
After Huo Zhan turned around and walked a few steps, Xiang Yu took a deep breath: "Young Marshal!"
In a psychological game, whoever shows cowardice first has already lost.
Xiang Yu invited people into the study and said solemnly: "Young Marshal, I didn't mean to shirk just now. I was really afraid that it would not be done properly. On the contrary, it would ruin the relationship between the Xiang family and Fengjin. But you said it for this reason." I don’t want to say anything anymore. I just hope that the young commander will care about friendship and not embarrass Xiang Jia. As you know, Xu Du is in a precarious situation now and he really can’t withstand the twists and turns."
When he said these words, the smile on Xiang Yu's face disappeared, and instead he showed fatigue.
This smiling tiger, who speaks human words when seeing people and lies when seeing ghosts, finally took off his disguise after showing his timidity.
Huo Zhan shook his head and chuckled: "Mr. Xiang, you worry too much. It's just a trivial matter."
Xiang Yu twitched the corner of his mouth, not believing it at all, but pretending to be listening attentively.
"Preparations for your beloved's wedding have already started, right?" Huo Zhan's narrow fox eyes glanced at the red silk hanging outside the window.
This was a strange question, and Xiang Yu was stunned for a moment. Could it be that... Marshal Huo was also a man of temperament, and wanted to steal the marriage?
Xiang Yu thought about his daughter carefully, and then nodded secretly. Although his Xiang family was just a merchant and didn't have much ability, the girls he raised were pretty good, and it was not unusual for them to catch Huo Zhan's eye.
When he thought that it was for his children's love, Xiang Yu breathed a sigh of relief and became much more natural.
He smiled and nodded: "Indeed, Lingchuan will be here in two days, so it's time to get ready early."
Because of the marriage between the Xiang family and the Huang family, it was also a disguised display of his close relationship with the Huang family. Xiang Yu deliberately called him closer and warmer. Is there any intention to arouse Huo Zhan's "jealousy"? And know it.
"I hope that Mr. Xiang can use your daughter's marriage as a pretext to put safety first and send people to investigate all outsiders in Xudu, especially those coming from the direction of Longdu. Of course, I will let Huo Jiajun join the team to assist Check."
Huo Zhan's voice was calm, he spoke calmly and unhurriedly, and his smile was so gentle that it felt like a spring breeze.
Xiang Yu looked dumbfounded and couldn't understand. What did this mean? To protect his daughter’s marriage?
However, this thought just passed by for a moment. He suddenly realized that he had thought too much. It seemed that Huo Zhan was planning to find someone in Xudu and did not want to arouse suspicion, so he took advantage of the Xiang family's "happy event" to come. Carry out your own plans.
This man is quite capable. He can actually make Huo Zhan think of ways to do it. I don’t know which party he is from.
Xiang Yu's mind turned over and over again, and then he smiled and said: "This is how it should be. The wedding is related to Xu Du, so there must be no mistakes. I'm really ashamed that the young marshal actually asked me to take the initiative to mention that you are willing to lend me the Xiang family. It's really shameful. It could not be better."
As soon as these beautiful words came out, the atmosphere in the study suddenly became harmonious.
Huo Zhan raised his thin lips lightly and said with clear amber eyes, "I came to Xudu in a hurry. I didn't expect to encounter a happy event for the Xiang family, so I prepared a small gift, but don't look at Mr. Xiang with disdain."
After saying that, Huo San left the study. A moment later, four Huo Jiajun carried a huge box into the study.
Xiang Yu looked at Huo Zhan, and the defensiveness in his eyes disappeared, and he was filled with kindness: "Young Marshal is so polite."
Huo Zhan's graceful thin lips curved slightly, and he raised his hand to signal Xiang Yu to come forward to see if he liked this "little gift".
Xiang Yu smiled and nodded, stepped forward, stretched out his hand to open the box, his pupils shrank, and he swallowed unconsciously, then looked at Huo Zhan in disbelief, then looked at the contents of the box, his voice trembled: "This …”
Huo Zhan met Xiang Yu's excited gaze, his expression still gentle: "Mr. Xiang, I'd like to trouble you to make arrangements."
Xiang Yu reacted immediately and said hurriedly: "This is natural! Don't worry, young marshal, everything will be taken care of by me. I will make arrangements immediately to ensure that the people who come and go in the near future are clearly investigated!"
Huo Zhan chuckled, and with a bit of carelessness, he raised his hand and patted Xiang Yu on the shoulder: "Hurry."
Xiang Yu nodded solemnly, obviously taking this matter seriously. As for whether it was out of sincerity or out of the value of a "little gift", they both knew each other well, and Huo Zhan didn't care, so he quickly said goodbye and left.
As soon as he left, Xiang Yu bent down and touched the brand-new firearms neatly stacked in the box with trembling hands.
Although I had known for a long time that the "thin gift" Huo Zhan mentioned would not be really thin, I never expected it to be so thick!
There are a whole box of twenty rifles. With the blessing of these weapons, the Xiang family has a little more capital to survive in the coming turbulent waves. Weapons cannot be bought even with money today. Hard stuff!
He had long known that Fengjin had its own arsenal and had interests in dealings with all major forces, but he never thought that Huo Zhan would take out these weapons without blinking, just to investigate one person. Who is he?
While Xiang Yu was deep in thought, a rush of footsteps sounded, and the sound of running high heels was particularly loud.
"Bang -" Xiang Huijia pushed open the study door, and the smile on her face froze when she saw only Xiang Yu.
She clutched the hem of her skirt tightly and said anxiously: "Dad! Where is Huo Zhan?!"
Xiang Yu stood up, stared at this reckless girl, and sneered: "Let's go."
"Leave?! Dad! How could you let him go?! You should have kept him!" Xiang Huijia's voice was sharp. As he spoke, he was about to turn around to find someone, but was stopped by Xiang Yu sternly: "Stop!" !”
"Dad!" Xiang Huijia turned around and said in a more urgent tone: "He must not have gone far. I can still chase him back!"
She was a little annoyed. On the way back, Huo Jiajun had obviously taken a long detour and wasted a long time before sending her back. Otherwise, she would have met Huo Zhan at home and kept him there. Stay for a while!
"Xiang Huijia! Do you know what you are doing? What does it look like for a young lady to run after a man? My face is about to be embarrassed by you!" Xiang Yu patted his face and cursed angrily. .
After scolding, Xiang Yu softened his tone again and said softly: "Okay, Lingchuan will arrive in Xudu soon. You should think carefully about how to please him. That is the most important thing. As for Huo Zhan, you will die now." Take care of yourself and prepare to get married with peace of mind."
Xiang Huijia bit her lip tightly, her face was blue and white, but she refused to let go.
