Chapter 1348

Just after Kong Nan's voice fell, Charles immediately shouted to Kong Nan with a smile on his face:

"Yes!"

"The central emissary is waiting for our reply outside now!"

"The central government now has a trade related to salt and wants to cooperate with us!"

"Your Majesty invites you to come to Baiyang palace tonight and discuss this cooperation in detail while having dinner with her!"

"How are you, sir? Do you want to promise? "

"Of course!" Kong Nan said readily, "go and reply to the central envoy outside - I will be on time tonight!"

The trade related to salt is a great trade.

The benefits from it are quite amazing.

The center of the British Empire rarely cooperated with other forces related to salt.

In Kong Nan's memory, the last time he cooperated with the central government about salt was almost 8 years ago.

There is such a good deal in front of Kong Nan. Of course, Kong Nan will not let it slip away in vain.

After receiving Kong Nan's order, Charles turned around and prepared to reply. They were all central envoys waiting outside.

Konnan didn't notice - after Charles turned around, a few strange colors appeared on Charles's face.

……

……

That night——

Kong Nan went to the appointment on time and came to Baiyang palace.

Ilsa prepared a luxurious banquet for Kong Nan in the banquet hall.

Because this banquet tonight is mainly to talk about cooperation with Kong Nan, only Ilsa and Kong Nan are present.

The two had a very pleasant talk about cooperation.

After just chatting for a while, they reached a consensus on cooperation.

Later, they just chatted.

As the contemporary patriarch of the Ryan family, konnan is a very talkative person. Therefore, even if the scale of the banquet is very small, only he and Ilsa are alone, konnan can still stir up the atmosphere of the banquet and chat with Ilsa.

After having enough to eat and drink, this small-scale banquet gradually came to an end.

……

……

"Your Excellency Kong Nan."

At the end of the banquet, Ilsa suddenly said to Kong Nan in a cordial and enthusiastic tone.

"This trade cooperation is a long lost cooperation between us and you, so let's give each other a gift as a souvenir!"

After that, Ilsa took a long sword that had been ready to be on her side early in the morning.

"This is the sword that I entrusted the Royal blacksmiths to forge. Come on, your excellency Kong Nan, please take it."

Ilsa handed the long sword to konnan.

And Kong Nan immediately took over the long sword handed by Ilsa in fear.

"Thank you, your majesty!"

"Lord Kong Nan, pull out your sword and have a look."

"Yes!"

Kong Nan slowly pulled the long sword out of its scabbard.

The snow-white body of the sword and the golden handle are all inlaid with precious stones.

Although the body and handle of the sword are inlaid with precious stones, it doesn't give people a sense of exaggeration.

The center of gravity, length and weight are all perfect.

Kong Nan liked the long sword very much and played with it.

"How? Lord Kong Nan, do you like it? "

"Well! Like it! " Kong Nan directly admitted, "what a sword!"

After that, Kong Nan took the long sword back into its sheath.

According to Ilsa, they exchanged gifts to commemorate their cooperation.

Now Ilsa has given konnan her gift, the long sword.

It's Kong Nan's turn to give him a present.

However, because of the sudden incident, Kong Nan didn't expect to exchange gifts with Ilsa, so she didn't bring anything decent to the banquet as a gift.

In desperation, Kong Nan could only take out his pocket watch made of pure gold and inlaid with many precious stones.

"Your Majesty, I commissioned a watchmaker master to order this pocket watch for me."

"Although I have used this watch for many years, it is still very beautiful and new because I usually take good care of it."

"If your majesty doesn't dislike it, please accept it."

"Wow, what a beautiful watch!"

Ilsa accepted the gold watch from Kong Nan with surprise.

Looking at Ilsa with a happy face, Kong Nan breathed a sigh of relief:

——Great... It seems that your majesty likes this watch very much

Ilsa gave him such a beautiful sword. If he didn't return an equally exquisite gift that would make Ilsa happy, his face would be lost.

……

……

Kong Nan took the long sword given by Ilsa and walked out of the banquet hall with a happy mood under the guidance of the waiter.

Kong Nan's figure had just left the banquet hall, and the smile on Ilsa's face disappeared with the naked eye.

"Your Majesty."

Camille's body flashed out of the side door of the banquet hall.

"I got Kong Nan's personal belongings smoothly."

"Kong Nan really gave me a good thing..."

Ilsa sneered and played with her gold watch.

"This gold watch has been used by Kong Nan for many years... Perfect gift."

Then Ilsa threw her pocket watch at Camille.

Camille also accurately caught Ilsa's pocket watch.

"Camille, let's go."

"A fatal blow to the Ryan family."

……

……

Next day——

"Your Excellency."

"Huh?" Kong Nan looked at Charles with a puzzled face. "Charles, what's the matter? Why are you so serious? "

"Sir... I want to go back to my hometown for a while."

"I just received a letter from my hometown - my daughter's condition has worsened."

"I want to go home and see my daughter."

"Your daughter's condition is getting worse?" Kong Nan frowned.

Kong Nan knows something about Charles's family.

Charles's wife and daughter are now living in his hometown.

His 14-year-old daughter was seriously ill a few years ago and has not recovered yet.

Kong Nan didn't expect that Charles's daughter's condition has not improved, but has worsened.

Charles has been with him for many years. He usually works hard, and he hasn't rested for a long time.

So Kong Nan nodded readily.

"OK, I'll give it to you - a two-month holiday."

"Hurry back to your hometown to see your daughter."

After that, Kong Nan took out a large stack of yinglang from his pocket.

"This is your fare. The horse is also lent to you. Go home at ease. "

"Thank you, sir!"

……

……

Charles rode out of pandragon.

But his destination is not his hometown.

But -- Leif city.

And what he carried was not only the fare given by Kong Nan.

And... Kong Nan's gold watch.
