First Family [Interstellar]

Things are looking optimistic.

About three days later, Lu Guanyu got a piece of news.The person in charge of the Imperial Nari Trading Company was invited to drink tea by the relevant departments of the Empire.Regarding this matter, the butler, who loves to complain, said this: "If I remember correctly, Nari Trading Company used unfair competition methods against us not long ago. Sir, at this moment, do you feel that Very touched?"

Not moved!Lu Guanyu would rather believe that this is because the relevant departments of the empire strictly abide by the laws and regulations, so they will not let go of any commercial behavior that disrupts the order of the market at will.

About a week later, Lu Guanyu got another piece of news.A certain certificate they had always wanted but had been blocked by the imperial officials for a long time was finally successfully processed.The butler said thoughtfully: "If my guess is correct, Mr. Gladstone must have done something for us. Sir, from this point of view, this gentleman has indeed shown his arrogance and coolness , what do you say?"

certainly not!Lu Guanyu would rather believe that their previous public relations actions worked.

About two weeks later, Lu Guanyu got another piece of news.The Empire has recently introduced a policy.The policy stipulates that all hospitals rated below Grade C need to update their equipment in a timely manner.Among them, the Lu Group was also listed as a designated merchant by the imperial government.In other words, hospitals that need to update their equipment will purchase part of the equipment from Lu's.Even if this "part" is very small, it is only a part of the matching parts on a large machine.But for the Lu family, this is also a very good opportunity for advancement.

When the news came, Lu Guanyu stared at Slyer for a long time.Obviously, we pay close attention to quality, so we stand out among many competitors!

Slyer smiled and asked: "Sir, as your half etiquette teacher, I have to remind you that it is very impolite to stare at someone for a long time."

Lu Guanyu silently withdrew his gaze: "I'm just wondering why you didn't complain this time."

Slyer said calmly: "Then, what should I say, sir? Should I congratulate you for finally getting married, or should I sympathize with you...for finally getting married?"

Lu Guanyu, who knew that Mr. Butler wouldn't say anything nice, but still wanted to tease the butler, ended up suffering the consequences: ...

"The people we planted among the pirates have heard the news. It is said that the father left a very precious thing, which can obtain the supreme power. However, no one knows what this thing refers to. It may be A huge treasure may be a force, a weapon, or a scientific research achievement..." Lu Guanyu turned to another topic, "Those unreliable novels often have such settings, If you get something, you can get the world, I always thought that only naive people would believe this."

The father mentioned by Lu Guanyu refers to Mr. Oliver.On the surface, Mr. Oliver had passed away many years ago.However, because of Ms. Mei Youwei's reminder, Lu Guanyu knew part of Oliver's background, and also knew that some people were looking for him.Those people did not believe that Mr. Oliver was really dead.

No one would go looking for a "dead man" for no reason, and those people wanted to find Oliver, which naturally had a reason.

Just like what Lu Guanyu found out recently, there has been a very secret message circulating among the pirates. This news was only known to a small group of people at the beginning, and it has been slowly leaked out over the years.Some say Oliver possesses a key item, which is still missing.Those are the people who firmly believe that getting something like this will lead them to great success.

Lu Guanyu scoffed at this rumor.But existence is reasonable. Since it can be believed by many people, it shows that it is indeed reasonable.

No one knows how much wealth Oliver has created in his life, but what is known is that what his adopted son Lu Guanyu inherited is only a part of it.So, where did the rest of the wealth go?Where did he spend the money, what did he hide, did he discover something else?Nobody knows.

There was only one sentence known, an exact one from Mr. Oliver.He once said: "Getting something like this can make you a king."

"Those pirates have connections with high-ranking federal officials. Unfortunately, our manpower is limited, so we can't get much more in-depth information for the time being. However, I guess the biggest boss behind the scenes should be someone from the military, most likely a... Marshal. If we hadn't responded in a timely manner, perhaps the Federation would have issued a warrant for our arrest." Lu Guanyu said.

"So you intend to move most of your business to Empire," Slyer said.

Lu Guanyu couldn't help laughing: "I am a businessman, and a businessman will always make a decision that is most beneficial to him."

In other words, the appearance of Mr. Gladstone did provide Lu Guanyu with a lot of convenience.Before that, Lu Guanyu didn't have any solid backing in the empire, and his career foundation was all in the federation.At the beginning, when Lu Nan was first found, Lu Guanyu was discussing the cooperation between the Empire and the Demon Claw Firm, which was actually the first step for him to formally enter the Empire (the previous cooperation in the gray area was not counted, after all, it could not be put on the table).However, even so, deep down in his heart, Lu Guanyu still couldn't have too much affection for Mr. Gladstone.

The reason is simple, Mr. Gladstone made Lu Guanyu feel threatened.

Slyer was silent for a moment, and then said in a very appreciative tone: "Speaking of that treasure...has the old gentleman never reminded you? Don't you really know nothing? In my opinion, he In fact, I have always been very satisfied with your heir. Although, he did not treat you very well."

Lu Guanyu rubbed his temples and said: "Look, you are so close to me, you don't believe that I really don't know anything about it. Those who are really looking for treasure, they will not believe my innocence In other words, in the eyes of many people, we are now a big fat piece of meat. Maybe Mr. Gladstone thinks so too. Could it be that he is also interested in this so-called treasure?"

Slyer said: "This can explain his hospitality to you. If he doesn't intend to plunder, then we can cooperate with him. However, I don't understand one thing. As a non-royal imperial , even if this treasure really existed, he got it smoothly, but so what? Since he can't violate his physical characteristics and resist the hierarchical suppression from the royal family, then he will never be able to overthrow the imperial royal family."

Lu Guanyu and Slyer looked at each other.

Slyer continued: "Unless this treasure is neither money nor a weapon, but a genetic key. As long as they get this key, they can ignore the level suppression."

"This is terrible. If it is really what you said, then the entire empire will have to be reshuffled." Lu Guanyu said.Of course, all of this now comes from their speculation.Again, maybe there was no such so-called treasure from the beginning to the end?Oliver is a bad character, he likes to play with people's hearts, he can do anything.

Slyer paid attention to the time and said, "It's time for me to go to the kitchen to prepare lunch, sir. For me, it is very important for the young masters to eat on time."

Lu Guanyu hurriedly said: "The last question! The situation is tense now, should I call Sensen home?" Lu Sen, like Lu Nan, has no genetic defects, so he doesn't need to take monster meat for a long time, so Lu Guanyu didn't take it at first. He plans to call his eldest son home.But considering those snoopers hiding in the dark, Lu Guanyu was not very relieved.

Slyer thought for a few seconds and replied seriously: "The situation is never safe, but life always goes on, sir."

Given that there are four young masters at home now, and Er Yan's unusually large appetite, Slyer always prepares a lot of food.Fortunately, he is a very organized person, and with the help of a housekeeping robot, as long as Er Yan doesn't enter the kitchen to help in high spirits, then preparing food is a very simple matter for Slyer.

After Lu Nan left the virtual space, he took a rest not long before it was time to eat.When he sat down at the dining table, he was still reciting materials.

"Don't make yourself too tired, Fourth Young Master. Maybe you can go and play with your friends from the magic plane after the meal?" Slyer sincerely suggested.

Lu Nan smiled embarrassedly, and said: "Recently Ansair started to sleep all day long again, and he was always lethargic. The big bird protected him under his wings to prevent others from approaching. I It has been several days since I touched him. Candlelight and Eli are both busy. So, there is nothing interesting in the magic plane, why not read more books."

"I envy him that he can sleep all the time." Xiaoxin muttered.

Lu Eryan followed suit: "I made a set of clothes yesterday, based on Candlelight's body shape. All the materials are directly taken from nature, and only some physical treatments have been done, without any artificial chemical processing. You wait Bring it to him later. Considering the freshness period of the materials themselves, the whole dress can only be worn for two days. Wear it while it is fresh!"

"Okay, then I'll bring it to him later." Lu Nan said with a smile.I don't know if they have lived together for a long time, but when Lu Nan laughed, he looked like a Slyer.

After eating, Lu Nan immediately entered the inside of the exchanger.Raven, who hadn't shown up for a long time, reappeared!

At the beginning, when Ansair was fed by the big bird to the eighth-level monster, the raven consumed a lot of energy to protect Ansair.After Ansair fused the life source crystal of the blood vine of hell, the raven disappeared as a dot of light.It hasn't been seen since.Lu Nan touched the ring every day, but he really couldn't sense the existence of the raven.

Seeing the raven at this moment, Lu Nan was still a little happy, and he greeted the raven in a good mood.

The raven croaked.

Lu Nan showed surprise on his face: "You mean, can I sign a contract with Ansair? After that, Ansier can use this ring, right?"
