Mythology Starts with Childish Skills

This person was also quite capable. After waiting for a while, Meng Zhao was taken to a small courtyard of the villa to wait.

There is nothing special about this small courtyard. It is relatively quiet and elegant. There are pots of fragrant sea dragon flowers growing there, which smell refreshing.

The walls are covered with large amounts of blue mud. After it dries, it looks like rippling water under the sunlight, which is very beautiful.

It's just that there are so many people coming and going, which ruins the chic and elegance of the place.

These people are basically all dressed in bright clothes, and they carry more or less paper and account books in their hands. Their temperaments are mostly similar to those of Wen Wen, and they are shrewd and philistine.

More importantly, about half of the people here are women, and most of the women are not very good-looking, not even attractive.

Meng Zhao knew that the status of women in the land of China was not high. Except for those with better family backgrounds, most ordinary women still supported their husbands and raised children, and rarely came out to show their faces. Heroines in the world were not included in this category.

Li Feng Trading Company is a special exception. Because of the relationship with the widow, it is also preferable to use women as helpers to run the business, so it is not surprising that half of the people who deal with it are women.

In addition to these, there was a vague sense of force and coercion coming from the main room of the small courtyard.

This strong, domineering, and sharp aura did not surprise Meng Zhao, because with Widow Jie's wealth and status, if she were not protected by powerful experts around her, she would have been eaten up by others as fat meat.

However, Meng Zhao was not sure what level this man's martial arts was, because with his current cultivation and strength, ordinary top innate masters would not be able to touch him so strongly, unless it was a top-level martial artist like him. A genius, a person with extraordinary fighting prowess, or a grandmaster?

After waiting for about a stick of incense, Meng Zhao was taken to the main room of the small courtyard and met Widow Jie, also known as Madam Jie, who was famous in Liangzhou and even the North.

She was dressed in black uniform, sitting upright behind a desk, with a straight back and a cold and strong temperament. Her hair was tied into a woman's bun and hung down from one side of her shoulders. She looked a bit like a wife.

It's a pity that Widow Jie's face is covered with a layer of black gauze, and her specific appearance cannot be seen clearly. All she can see is her curved eyebrows as beautiful as Yuandai, and a pair of watery eyes that seem to be able to wrap hundreds of refined steel around her fingers. 's eyes.

With her smooth forehead, beautiful curved eyebrows and eyes, Meng Zhao could already confirm that this Lady Xie, er, Widow Xie, must be a very beautiful lady, and her temperament is also quite outstanding.

It is different from the delicacy of ordinary women, and it is also different from the strength of women practicing martial arts, but a sense of strength that is similar to intelligence and tenacity, and is as strong as the green pine trees on the cliff that cannot be knocked down.

If Meng Zhaolai were to describe her, she would probably be the kind of strong woman who was very successful in her career and extremely confident in her previous life.

Widow Jie did not raise her head when Meng Zhao entered the house, but was dealing with the account books in her hand. She did not raise her head until the person leading the way left the house, glanced at Meng Zhao coldly, and said,

"Fourth Master Meng is busy with things. He is not training his own Yangwu army in Lingwu City, nor is he purifying his Shenwei army in Hushan. What are you doing here?"

To be honest, this was the first time Meng Zhao and the widow met, and they had at most heard some stories about each other's deeds.

However, when facing this woman, as well as the tone and movements of the other woman's words, Meng Zhao actually had the illusion that the two had known each other for some time and were very good friends.

And Meng Zhao was also quite sure that this woman had not practiced any so-called spiritual martial arts, or she had practiced it but had not used it on him.

He doesn't know any charm, he just has a kind of personality charm.

No wonder, it makes sense for him to be able to accomplish such a big undertaking.

Meng Zhao smiled, he would never admit defeat. He saw a wooden chair in the corner of the room, moved it over, sat down on his own, and said,

"The reason I came to Jichang County this time was for Lifeng Trading Company to continue to fund the Shenwei Army. However, with the help of Manager Jie San, there was already another channel, and it was not none other than Mrs. Jie. I shouldn't have come here. Disturbing Madam Xie.

Of course, I have always heard of the eldest lady and have been friends with her for a long time. This opportunity is rare, how can I not pay a visit? "

Widow Jie frowned slightly, put down the booklet and abacus in her hand,

"It seems that Jie Wen is informing you about the internal affairs of our Li Feng Trading Company. Isn't he clear about what should be said and what should not be said?

You should not have been soft-hearted in the first place for this rip-off, spare him, and make sure to make him look good in the future.

However, I don’t think you should be happy too early.

The relationships within the company are complicated. I just want to ask for something, and I don’t have a big appetite. You have nothing to worry about.

Those people are not like me. They offer real money and silver to get, perhaps, the military power of the Divine Power Army.

In the future, your Shenwei Army will need them to supply all your daily needs, which means that your lifeblood is in someone's hands.

Oh, I almost forgot, this Shenwei Army was originally taken from others by you, Mr. Meng. You are an expert in it. Those guys are just doing tricks in front of you. How can they be your opponent? "

This seems to be a compliment, but in fact it is derogatory and sarcastic. It can be seen that just as Jie Wen said, this Mrs. Jie has a lot of resentment towards Meng Zhao.

Meng Zhao was still not angry and looked around the room. There was a door on the west side of the main room, separated by an inner room.

Logically speaking, the martial arts master whose aura was so powerful that it attracted Meng Zhaodu's attention was among them.

However, he sensed it carefully and found that it seemed to be something but not there, and he couldn't quite touch it clearly.

On the contrary, the Lady Jie in front of him, in addition to her special temperament, also gave him a strange feeling.

Could it be that that master is the widow in front of me?

Meng Zhao did not rule out this possibility. He was a little surprised when the emperor used his Qi-gazing technique and couldn't see the way out.

However, he remained calm on the surface and continued,

"Madam Xie, don't blame Manager Jie. He is alone and has no power to resist me and my men. If he doesn't insist on his own opinion, he may not see the sun this morning.

As for what you said, coveting the mighty military power.

As you said, what can some clowns do to me even if they jump up and down? "

This is Meng Zhao's truth and what he thinks from his heart.

He was able to seize the power of the Shenwei Army from Bai Shuai's hands. Although it was due to Su Hongtu's own suicide and the right time, place and people, it was also indispensable to rely on his personal calculations and strong strength.

He has no shortage of scheming, strength, and ruthlessness, and he achieves them all to the extreme.

Compared with him, what can some businessmen do?

Relying on the money bag to control him?

At a critical moment, it is not impossible to use the army to brutally kill these people who funded it and seize all their property.

In the final analysis, although money and food are the lifeblood, we still have to see if we can withstand the backlash before the lifeline is taken.
