Money ability is sometimes quite useful.
How can I not meet someone who has come to me on his own initiative? I just wanted to see if I could get some useful information out of him.
Chu Qiuze waved his hand and asked the waiter to open the door of the private room and let the dancer in.
The dancer moved quite quickly. She had already changed her clothes within a short while of leaving the stage.
The dance outfit she wore before was frivolous, and it gave off a hint of sexiness and charm, but now that she's put on this outfit, she looks like a lady from a wealthy family.
She has perfectly grasped the character of the down-and-out young lady.
The dancer knelt down and kowtowed as soon as she entered the room. Although she kept her posture very low, her posture still revealed a hint of dignity. She thanked Chu Qiu Ze repeatedly in the not-so-standard Dahan Mandarin.
Chu Qiu Ze didn't let her get up and kept observing her secretly.
It seemed to be fine, but his intuition told him that this must be the fine work he was looking for.
Otherwise, do you really think there are so many coincidences in this world?
"Raise your head and let me take a good look at you." Chu Qiuze acted like a playboy.
Anyone who saw him like this today would think he was a young master from a wealthy family. The owner of the restaurant was sitting next to him. To have the owner accompany him, his identity must be extraordinary.
The dancer was very obedient and, with a hint of shyness, slowly raised her head.
A pair of watery eyes, hazy and adorable, made Ren Mingbi stare at her in amazement.
Chu Qiuze observed her carefully with a critical attitude and found that the dancer's exotic style was indeed a little light. "Are you a Hu? Or a Dahan?"
"My father is a Hu man. He met my mother when he came to Dahan for business. So I am a Hu man and also a Dahan man."
Chu Qiuze nodded. It was indeed the case. He was a mixed-race child.
He learned from Lan An last night that burning, killing, kidnapping and torture often occurred on the border between Dahan and the Hu people, and many women living on the border suffered.
Obviously he didn't believe what the dancer said, he trusted his intuition more.
Then, Chu Qiuze asked a few more questions.
It was a very common question, and would not arouse suspicion. It would only make people think that the nobleman was interested in the dancer.
"What business did your father run before?"
“Why did you end up in a foreign country?”
"Where in Dahan was your mother from?"
......
The dancer answered all the questions in detail, and there was almost no problem.
But often such a careful answer is the biggest loophole.
After Chu Qiuze asked the questions, he let the dancer go, showing that he was very interested in her the whole time.
Ren Mingbi, who had been standing by, was full of questions: When did this male god become so interested in this dancer?
What's going on? Has this dancer bewitched your mind?
"Qiu Ze?" Ren Mingbi couldn't help but ask, "Do you like this dancer?"
It was normal for powerful people to keep a few dancers at home. Even in his own house, several concubines were promoted to positions through dancers.
Originally he didn't think there was anything wrong with this, but if the male god was interested in this dancer, then it would be a big problem.
His cousin, the prince, was a very unkind person. Except for a few maids, even the flies in the palace were male.
But he thought again, since both of them were men and could not have children, it seemed reasonable to have a son through surrogacy.
It's no wonder he has this idea, as Dahan has encountered many similar situations.
There are men who are born to like men, but it is very common for them to marry a woman and bring her home to have children in order to continue the family line.
After all, in this era, the issue of offspring is still very important in the eyes of most people.
Chu Qiu Ze had no idea what Ren Mingbi was thinking, so he just made a few perfunctory remarks, saying that the dancer was not bad.
The show was over and it was getting late, so it was time for him to go home.
I haven't seen Blue Eucalyptus the whole day and haven't sent him a single message. I don't know how busy he is.
As luck would have it, he had just entered the bedroom when Lan An arrived home.
Chu Qiuze looked at Lan An's tired face and quickly approached him, "What's wrong? What happened?"
Lan Euan opened his mouth, not knowing how to answer.
Today he went to discuss with his brother the conversation he had with Qiu Ze last night and the plans that could be implemented.
This was no small matter, so the old emperor summoned several ministers into the palace to discuss the matter together.
As the saying goes, the sword of a military general and the mouth of a civil official are both sharp weapons that can kill people.
This plan is easy to say, but it is not easy to implement. It takes a lot of time and energy.
Dahan had just obtained this high-yield grain, but it didn’t even have enough to save for seeds, so how could it sell it to others?
So the civil officials disagreed, and the military generals also felt that they should focus on food and fodder first.
No one is wrong.
This is indeed the situation in Dahan. It is not short of money, but it is very short of food.
In fact, let alone Dahan, every country in this world suffers from food shortage.
If you are lucky and have good weather and good harvests all year round, it means that God has given you food to eat and you can eat your fill.
If you have bad luck, there will be natural disasters and man-made misfortunes. Don't even think about eating enough, it's a good thing if you don't starve to death.
Take the drought last year, for example. It almost emptied the grain reserves of the Dahan treasury. It’s no wonder that these ministers disagreed.
But the border issues are equally urgent.
The Hu people had long harassed the people living in the border areas, and the people living in the border areas had been living in dire straits.
If the plan is implemented, the border will be more stable and people's livelihood development will be able to move forward a step.
But if we want to really implement it, we have to wait until the second half of the year.
After all, the potatoes and sweet potatoes grown in the first season need to be saved for seeds, so there are not many to sell.
The old emperor looked calm and composed, and everyone's opinion was right and everyone's suggestion was problematic.
It's like a complete fence-sitter.
The blue gums have grown big.
But at this time, a letter was received from the border, saying that an envoy from the Hu people would visit next month to pay tribute.
It was obvious that they already knew about the grain issue. If the negotiations went well, everyone would be happy. If not, a war would be inevitable.
Compared to war, Lan Euan, who has been on the battlefield, said that he would rather solve the problem in a peaceful way.
Seeing Lan An was silent, Chu Qiuze asked again: "What happened? Tell me, maybe I can give you some advice."
In the end, Lan An told Chu Qiu Ze everything. As husband and wife, there was nothing they couldn't keep secret.
Chu Qiuze also fell silent. He had roughly guessed what the old emperor was thinking.
Now it is obvious that the boss feels that he is old and does not want to get involved in any big things. He just wants to be a hands-off manager and let them work out a solution themselves.
The concerns of those civil officials and military generals are not without reason.
Dahan had just recovered, and the people had hope for their lives. The food in the barracks had never been good, and people were even not full.
There is nothing wrong with the idea of sticking close to one's own country.
Chu Qiuze thought about his current mission. If he completed it well, maybe he could solve this problem. At least he could use the detailed problem to negotiate with the Hu people and gain more benefits.
"Lend me a few people." Chu Qiuze thought for a while, first told Lan An about his mission, and then talked about his plan.
Lan An was shocked at first, because spies are very dangerous people. He was worried that if Chu Qiu Ze was exposed, he would be in danger.
"Don't worry." Chu Qiuze patted his chest and assured, "I'm not in any danger in Dahan. I have Xiaoen's protection."
Xiao En also flew out and assured repeatedly that his protective shield could not be penetrated even by bullets, let alone the swords of this world.
Lan An knew that Xiao En was a product of a higher dimension world, so he could only choose to believe it temporarily, but he still recruited a few secret guards.
Firstly, it is to secretly protect Chu Qiuze's safety. This is Lan An's order, and everything is based on Chu Qiuze's safety.
Chu Qiuze was helpless, but still accepted his husband Jun's feelings.
Secondly, Chu Qiu Ze needed someone to go to the Western Regions to gather information from the Hu people. He printed out the photos he had secretly taken today to see if he could find out the details of the dancer from the Hu people.
Thirdly, he needed someone to find out the dancer’s contact in Dahan.
There were many talented people among the secret guards. They received orders based on their own strengths and then disappeared.
Truly coming and going without a trace.
Chu Qiuze was amazed at the performance. "This is really amazing."
Lan An was a little jealous and hugged his beloved into his arms. "One month later, the Western Regions Hu envoys will come to visit. How should we deal with it? Today, my brother has handed this matter over to me."
Chu Qiuze thought about it, then found the Chinese military parade ceremony on his phone and showed it to Lan An.
The upright posture, neat formation and majestic slogans all demonstrate the strength of a country.
Demonstrating our country's combat power can also serve to intimidate other countries.
Lan Euan is extremely novel. The civilians are not allowed to see Dahan’s military training. The number of troops and weapons are not allowed to be leaked.
They have never thought about showing the country's military to outsiders.
But if you think about it carefully, there are many benefits to doing so. Let the Hu people see the style and weapons and equipment of the Dahan army, and they will probably not easily provoke a war.
By then, even if we implement the trade plan, we will have the confidence to negotiate higher conditions.
Lan An couldn't help but kiss Chu Qiuze on the face, "Qingqing, you are really Dahan's lucky star."
Ever since Chu Qiuze has been with Lan An, Lan An's true character has gradually been revealed. He had discovered a long time ago that Lan An is actually a child who lacks love.
Baji, kissed back, "Just your lucky star."
After discussing the details and plans, the two began to talk about modern things.
I had obtained my household registration but not my ID card, so I had been using a temporary ID card during this period.
The annual leave is over and it’s almost time for my ID card to be mailed home.
So Lan An planned to sell some things. First, he had to buy a house for his biological mother and stepfather. He couldn't always live in Qiu Ze's house.
Firstly, it was inconvenient; secondly, his mother was somewhat reserved because of Uncle Yao's matter; and thirdly, Anbei was already three and almost four years old.
Modern children are about to go to kindergarten, and the school is not worried about these things. They are just worried that Anbei grew up in ancient times and cannot adapt to kindergarten life.
“You can let An Bei try first.” Chu Qiu Ze took into consideration that An Bei was still young. Even if she said something like Da Han or Princess, other children or teachers would just think that she watched too many TV dramas or learned it from her parents.
Speaking of Anbei, there are actually some things that are quite troublesome.
That is the household registration of Anbei.
Lan An is unmarried, so in order to register her child, she needs not only a birth certificate but also a paternity test.
There is no way around it. China now attaches great importance to child safety.
Mr. Chu said that he would leave the matter to him, but I don’t know what the situation is now.
I have to find time to ask and get this matter settled as soon as possible.
