There was still silence, but this time it was completely different from before.
Although everyone kept their mouths shut, their hearts were beating loudly, and their blood was burning.
Chen Mo's words were calm and gentle, without any impatience, but they perfectly explained what it means to moisturize things silently.
"Sir, a great talent."
Looking at Chen Mo, Zhong Kui expressed his true feelings sincerely.
His respect for Chen Mo before was entirely because of the dagger.
At this moment, he was completely convinced.
A helpless preacher, relying on his clever mind, abruptly reversed a fatal situation.
Just relying on talent and learning is not enough, you also need to have pride and courage.
Not only that, but it also repeatedly attacked the arrogance of Hou Yong and Xia Houzheng.
Especially the latter, with his backing against the big tree of the current Prime Minister, and with an imperial edict when he came, has always been unscrupulous in the fortress.
The only one who could defeat him was the great general Xia Houzhen.
But now?
Chen Mo's spine was bent with just a few words.
Who says you have to use a knife to kill?
You can use your mouth or words, too.
"Chen Jiaoyu has such a pure heart. If he can fight on the battlefield, he will definitely become a famous general in the future."
Cheng Jingang murmured to himself. Perhaps he was influenced by Chen Mo and his speech became more formal.
Perhaps, this is the art of language and the power of words.
When are people most easily moved? When they touch the core, they can empathize. Apparently Chen Mo did this.
"Chen Mo, how many things are you hiding in your body?"
The one who touched her most deeply was Hua Mei Shu. At this time, she felt that Chen Mo was like a treasure that she could never dig out.
Whenever he feels like he's about to hit bottom, he always reveals a deeper layer.
What kind of man is this?
Why did you just meet him now?
Thinking of all the things that happened between the two of them since they worked together, and thinking that Chen Mo had already started a family and started a business, Hua Meishu felt a little uncomfortable in her heart.
Especially when I think of the scene on the cliff top of the inn, I feel even more disappointed.
Fate, do you really have to miss it like this?
If so, why let each other meet again?
As he thought about it, the light in Huameishu's eyes became firmer, and his whole body showed an unyielding energy.
Happiness has always been achieved by oneself.
This sentence is Hua Tiannan’s teaching.
It is precisely because of this that Huameishu did not learn the etiquette of female celebrities, but started a business like her father.
This is an attitude, but also a choice and pursuit.
We could do it before, but can't we do it now?
Not only do you have to try, you also have to get what you want!
Of course, Huameishu will never use dirty tricks, let alone do shady things.
What she has to do is to show her best side.
Where there is sincerity, gold and stone will be opened.
One day, it will bear fruit.
Thinking of this, Huameishu's eyes looked at Chen Mo with a little more dazzling light.
In stark contrast, was the resentment in Xia Fangzheng's eyes.
How could a teacher make a huge difference?
But I have to say that this nonsense is really good at talking nonsense. In just a few words, it won people's hearts over.
But at this time, I have no choice but to keep my hatred in my heart.
"Chen Jiaoyu, you are really serious."
This sentence is what Xia Houzhen said from the bottom of his heart.
Not only did he find resonance just now, but he also touched the true feelings in his heart, and even felt some grievances.
Since arriving at the fortress, many personal matters have gone wrong.
The most obvious thing is that the person next to me feels more and more alienated.
But how many people really understand the hardships of being stationed at the border?
The general sounds majestic, but only he, the client, knows how difficult it is to do this job well.
Now, someone who understands him has appeared.
Empathy will always shorten the distance between people, and General Xia Houzhen is not immune to this.
So from this moment on, he no longer just admired Chen Mo, but felt happy that he had met a confidant.
In fact, not only him, but also the guards and sergeants were full of admiration and gratitude for Chen Mo.
Needless to say, I admire you for taking care of the arrogant Xia Fangzheng.
Thank you, no need to say more.
The four words "bearing a heavy burden and moving forward" are the best explanation and praise for them guarding the border.
Therefore, everyone could not help but regard Chen Mo as one of their own in their hearts.
Since they are one of their own, they all want to hear what private matters Chen Mo is talking about.
If possible, everyone is willing to help.
"Chen Mo, you said it's public, what do you mean by private?"
Instead of calling Chen Jiaoyu, he called Chen Mo's name, which is enough to see the change in Xiahou Zhen's attitude.
After Chen Mo bowed his hands and saluted to express his gratitude, he spoke with some consideration.
"General, transporting supplies on this trip has been very difficult from beginning to end. Meishu, in particular, has put in even more effort and effort to convince Mr. Hua."
"The Hua family is a home of merchants. In order to get rid of the predicament that Mei Shu is in, we decided to do some business on the way."
"Firstly, if you don't get the money, you can avoid losses to the greatest extent. After all, the cost of the transaction is not a small sum. Secondly, you can also give Mr. Hua an explanation. We do not do things impulsively, but have corresponding plans.
"
"Meishu, when it comes to Mr. Hua, it would be rude for me to say more. I won't add the rest."
"OK."
Nodding, Huameishu planned to get up.
"No need." After Xia Houzhen stopped him, he said sincerely, "Each of us has been young and had differences with our parents. So I believe everyone present can understand what you two are thinking.
"
"understand!"
Some people couldn't help but respond, which aroused a lot of echoes.
Xia Houzhen pressed his hands down and continued: "There is actually nothing wrong with seeking some personal gain while transporting supplies. It is completely human behavior that can be seen everywhere. This general is not a cold-blooded person, so I will not be held accountable for this."
"General, this is inappropriate. No matter for whatever reason, they did not arrive at the specified time, so they should..."
"What should it be?"
This time, Xia Houzhen didn't hold back and interrupted directly.
"Master Supervisor, this general also wants to ask you about this matter. Do you know that you cannot get money for transporting supplies?"
"I don't know," Xia Fangzheng shook his head.
"General, I have to ask a question. The most common thing your Excellency says every day is that as a supervisor of the army, you must be sharp-minded and upright. Such a big thing has been going on for several years. Where are your ears and eyesight?
where?"
"I……"
"Please allow me to finish what I'm saying." Xia Houzhen interrupted again, "After I've said that I have a clear ear and eyesight, let's talk about being upright. Before Lord Supervisor came here, did he know why Chen Jiaoyu and the others were late? Did he send anyone or personally investigate?
Pass?"
"This... I have important things to do, so..."
"What a pressing matter." Xia Houzhen's counterattacks came one after another, "Since there were pressing matters, why did you go to see Chen Jiaoyu and Miss Hua? Since you saw them, why didn't you investigate the reason for their late arrival?"
"What I want is..."
Xia Fangzheng was speechless and didn't know how to answer.
"Master Xia can't be thinking about gold, right?" Cheng Jingang answered without any warning.
"Cheng Jingang, you are so presumptuous." Xia Fangzheng got angry and scolded him directly, "You are a warrior, what else do you know besides spitting blood? Even if I am here for gold, is there anything wrong? You don't have to think about it.
, if there is really gold hidden in the car, what will be the consequences if it is taken to an enemy country."
"Master Xia, please stop it. Be careful of the trouble coming from your mouth." Cheng Jingang said coldly, "As the saying goes, there is no need to blame others. According to our old Cheng's opinion, if there is real gold, it is probably 80% possible.
You stole it for yourself."
"you……"
Xia Fangzheng was so angry that he wished he could chop Cheng Jingang into pieces with a knife.
"I won't talk to you, a reckless man like you, Chen Jiaoyu. Now that we've reached this point, I'll ask you one last question. Where do you want to do your so-called business? Who do you want to do it with? Do it according to your conscience.
Tell it like it is."
"Master Xia, if you don't do anything wrong, you won't be surprised if you knock on the door in the middle of the night. You don't have to worry about your conscience. I will tell you the answer very responsibly now."
Chen Mo said, raising his hand and pointing in the direction outside the wall.
"I want to do business in Hu Xiaguo, and I want it to be long-term, prosperous, and spread all over the country."
boom……
When Chen Mo finished speaking, everyone was shocked.
