Chapter 571 I Want to Join the Game
"Xinghan is too busy today, so he specially asked me to greet you all! Please don't mind!"
With the help of her maid, the eldest lady politely saluted Lowe and others.
General Lowe seemed somewhat displeased.
After all, he is considered a top figure in Siam and the highest security officer in the capital of Siam. With such an identity, he came to your Ruan Xinghan's territory, but he didn't come to entertain me in person?
What do you take me for?
Seeing Luo Wei's displeasure, his sister Luo Song beside him hurriedly said, "Madam, you are too polite. You are our cousin, and Mr. Ruan is our cousin's husband. We are all family members. Why should we be so polite?"
"Thank you for your understanding, sister. We haven't seen each other for a long time. How have you been recently?"
Women are always the quickest to start a conversation, and the two of them soon began chatting, seemingly forgetting about Luo Wei, Jiang Ning and the others standing by.
Lowe felt a breath stuck in his chest, feeling a little uncomfortable.
But he was not a reckless person. Although he was a general of Mandu, he was now in someone else's territory and was a lone commander.
Therefore, the dragon should coil up and the tiger should lie down.
Originally, he came here to get business done. As long as the other party could accept Jiang Ning, everything would be fine.
Thinking of this, Luo Wei also lowered himself and joined in the conversation between Luo Song and the eldest lady.
After chatting for about an hour, Jiang Ning became a little impatient.
It would be fine to leave it alone for a while, but what does it mean to not show up for so long?
He glanced at Lowe, his eyes revealing a different meaning, the subtext of which was saying, I'm not here to play with you today.
Luo Wei took a deep breath and said, "Madam, where is Mr. Ruan now? I have something to discuss with him."
"Oh, he is discussing matters with those gem merchants." The eldest lady said, "They usually don't allow outsiders to interfere in their conversations."
Hearing this, Lowe became even more depressed.
So we are all outsiders!
The eldest lady also felt that she had said something wrong, and said with a smile: "Don't get me wrong, I mean, in business, they have their own circle. Of course, our family ties are thicker than blood."
Lowe sighed and looked at the wall clock. It was almost eleven o'clock in the morning. The banquet would begin after twelve o'clock.
Everyone was drinking and chatting happily at the banquet, and there were too many people to talk to each other, so it was not convenient for Luo Wei to talk to Ruan Xinghan about Jiang Ning.
"Madam, I actually wanted to talk to Mr. Ruan about business." Luo Wei pointed at Jiang Ning beside him and said, "This gentleman from China also likes the jade industry and wants to do some business with Mr. Ruan, so I brought him to the banquet as well."
"Oh, I don't understand about business matters. Well, come with me and I'll go talk to Xinghan." said the eldest lady.
She was an easy-going person with a noble demeanor, which made it hard for Lowe to find fault with her.
Jiang Ning, Luo Wei and others, along with the eldest lady, came to a large conference hall.
"They are discussing matters inside. I'll go call Xinghan!"
The eldest lady knocked on the wooden door.
"Can you excuse me?"
"What's the matter?" Ruan Xinghan's voice came from the house.
"General Lowe wants to talk to you about something. It's a business matter," said the eldest lady.
After a while, Ruan Xinghan pushed the door open and walked out, and asked Luo Wei: "General Luo Wei, why didn't you tell me earlier about your business matters? Don't delay it!"
After hearing this, Lowe felt angry.
I told you a long time ago that I would introduce someone to the local area to contract the mining area. Now you say in front of Jiang Ning that I didn’t tell you in advance. Aren’t you playing a trick on me?
But now he needed help from Ruan Xinghan, so he suppressed his anger and said calmly, "Didn't I come to you to tell you this?"
"Hahaha!" Ruan Xinghan laughed, looked at his watch and said, "You see I'm busy right now, how about we talk about it in detail after today?"
Lowe frowned and thought, I am the sheriff of Mando after all. Do you think I have time to hang out here with you every day?
Besides, I came to you to discuss business, how could you push it back? You obviously don't give me face!
"After today, I will go back to Mando. I still hope that we can talk about things now, and I hope you can come and make a decision in person." Lowe said.
"Okay, ten minutes!" Ruan Xinghan smiled slightly.
That smile was so annoying that it made Lowe furious.
This is clearly a lack of face for oneself.
But he suppressed his anger and said, "I talked to you on the phone before. One of my good brothers wants to do jade business. He wants to come to Myanmar to contract some mines..."
The people in the house heard this, and several aggressive young men rushed out of the door. One of them said, "Contracting the mining area? How can our mining area be contracted to outsiders?"
"Mr. Ruan, we don't have this precedent!"
"Jiang Ning is not an outsider." Luo Wei took out a document and waved it in front of Ruan Xinghan: "Jiang Ning owns a huge gold mine in Mandu and is a partner designated by our royal family. Now, Jiang Ning has even worshipped my sister Luo Song as her elder sister. Luo Song is the eldest lady's cousin, and we are all family!"
Lowe had already anticipated that someone on the other side would object, so he did his homework before coming here.
This is enough to show that Lowe really cares about Jiang Ning.
But even Luo Song herself didn't know that Jiang Ning had worshipped Luo Song as her godsister.
Her eyes suddenly became a little nervous and she couldn't help but become nervous.
Jiang Ning was very at ease and smiled at Luo Song, as if they had known each other for a long time.
This gave Ruan Xinghan a headache.
The jade merchants in their Burmese capital are extremely xenophobic, and Ruan Xinghan does not want an outsider to join their camp.
But at the moment, he had no clear reason to refuse Lowe, as that would offend him.
Although he did not give Lowe too much face, it was not a good thing to offend him openly.
"Hahaha! So, you really are a family!" Ruan Xinghan stepped forward, patted Jiang Ning on the shoulder, and said in an almost threatening tone: "But it is precisely because we are a family that I want to remind Mr. Jiang that jade is not like gold mines. The jade industry is complex and changeable. Many bosses who entered this industry have lost their fortunes, and some even lost their lives. You still look so young..."
"Thank you for your reminder, Mr. Ruan. I will pay attention to these things. But I have confidence in myself and I can definitely do it well!" Jiang Ning smiled slightly: "Please give me this opportunity, Mr. Ruan!"
Ruan Xinghan frowned, feeling very unhappy.
Don’t you understand what I’m saying?
I don't want you to get involved, but you still insist on getting in.
Asking for trouble.
"Well, to be honest, anyone who wants to join Myanmar's jade industry has to go through trials and tribulations." Ruan Xinghan pointed at the people behind him and said, "Which one of them didn't come through hard work? You have to know that the jade industry is not a peaceful one, and there are so many merchants eyeing it covetously. It takes real skills to keep it under control."
"Mr. Ruan, do you think I can't calm down?" Jiang Ning smiled slightly.
Ruan Xinghan said nothing, but his eyes showed a hint of contempt.
Of course he felt that Jiang Ning couldn't control himself.
A young man in his early twenties, relying on his relationship with the Myanmar nobles, wants to get involved in the Myanmar jade industry. Isn't that a crazy idea?
"Haha, when you say this, it means you can't do this job!" Ruan Xinghan refused directly.
