After about a while of tea, Young Master Liu and his party arrived in the courtyard outside the study room in the inner courtyard.
Young Master Liu took out the key from his arms, opened the copper lock and walked into the study.
"Come in, everyone."
"OK."
"Okay, here we come."
"Xiaowu, Xiaoqi."
"Master."
"After you two put down the food and drinks, please leave first."
"Yes, I will obey, little one."
Xiao Wu and the other two placed the food and wine on the trays on the table one by one, then turned around and left the study directly.
"Third brother, what do you want to tell us?"
Liu Mingzhi turned his head and glanced at the two of them, then pointed at the food and wine on the table.
"Brother, Baoyu, how are you two eating?"
Song Qing patted his belly gently and laughed several times with an angry look on his face.
"Hehehe, to be honest, I'm not even half full.
However, third brother, if you have something serious that you need to discuss with us now, it doesn’t matter if you delay the meal for the time being."
Zhou Baoyu heard Song Qing's words and nodded in agreement.
"Yes, yes, Commander, let's get down to business first.
If you delay the matter of drinking and eating, it will be delayed, and it is nothing."
Young Master Liu shook his head angrily and poured three bowls of wine on the altar.
"Since you're not full yet, let's sit down and eat for a while."
Then Mr. Liu sat carelessly on the chair, reached out and grabbed a piece of roasted lamb leg and brought it to his mouth.
"You two should sit down quickly and eat half full before we talk about business."
"coming."
"Okay."
It takes about the time to make a cup of tea.
Liu Mingzhi casually threw the bones on the table, stood up and stretched, picked up the drink and drank heavily.
"Third brother, are you ready to eat now?"
Young Master Liu put down his drink and wiped the drink from the corner of his mouth with his fingers.
"It's almost half full. You two continue to eat. I'll go outside the study to wash the grease on my hands first."
Young Master Liu didn't wait for Song and Qing to say anything, and walked directly out of the study.
"Baoyu, how is your food?"
"Barely half full, how about you, Brother Song?"
"My brother is about the same as you, barely half full."
"Then let's continue eating?"
Song Qing drank the remaining half of the bowl of wine, dropped the bowl and walked out of the study.
"If you are willing to eat, then go ahead and eat. Anyway, I won't eat."
Zhou Baoyu licked the grease on his fingers, immediately got up and followed him.
"If you don't eat, then I won't eat either.
Business is important, so it’s better to talk about business first.”
Soon.
Liu Mingzhi and the other two went back and returned to the study again.
"Commander, can we talk about another thing now?"
Liu Mingzhi nodded with a faint smile, closed the door and walked directly towards his desk.
"Brother, go and put down the map next to the bookshelf first."
"Okay, brother, I know."
Song Qing responded without hesitation and quickly walked towards the map not far away.
Zhou Baoyu rolled up his sleeves and followed immediately.
"Brother Song, let me help you."
Liu Mingzhi took out the document that Zhou Baoyu gave him from his sleeve and placed it on the desk.
Then he walked to the window sill and opened two windows, and the study suddenly became brighter.
"Third brother, the map has been put down."
"Okay, I'm going over right now."
Liu Mingzhi reached out and picked up the tray with herbal tea on the desk, walked to the map next to the bookshelf and stopped in front of it.
"Brother, Baoyu, the teapot is on the side. If any of you want to drink tea, pour it yourself."
"got it."
"Okay."
Young Master Liu picked up his tea and took a sip. He raised his head slightly and scanned the huge map in front of him, his eyes narrowed slightly and he fell silent.
When Zhou Baoyu and the two saw Young Master Liu's appearance, they frowned for a while and their expressions gradually became serious.
Both of them are old people around Mr. Liu, so they naturally understand Mr. Liu's character very well.
Based on their understanding of Liu Mingzhi, Liu Mingzhi would never stare at the map in front of him in silence for no reason.
For ordinary people, a map is just an item used to identify directions.
However, for a person of Liu Mingzhi's status.
What a map means is naturally self-evident.
He just needs to calm down, stare at the map and think about something carefully.
This means that he must be planning something big.
Especially when the two of them are still standing aside.
Song Qing and Zhou Baoyu both pondered secretly in their hearts.
Suddenly.
The two of them glanced at each other in unison, and an idea came to their minds at the same time.
Liu Mingzhi, there is a high probability that he will use troops again.
From each other's eyes, the two of them could see each other's thoughts.
The two exchanged casually with their eyes, nodded tacitly, and then both looked at the map in front of them.
While carefully looking at the map in front of me, I was thinking secretly in my heart.
Both Song and Qing were silently guessing where Liu Mingzhi wanted to use his troops.
Where do you want the sword to point?
The three of them, Mr. Liu and others, were all paying attention to the map in front of them, thinking about their own thoughts secretly in their hearts.
For a moment, the study suddenly became quiet.
After a long time.
Young Master Liu turned around and put down the tea cup in his hand, and casually took out his tobacco bag from his waist.
To be continued...
