Li Muye's eyes were red and swollen, burning and painful. His tears were flowing uncontrollably and he couldn't stop them. He had to pay back all the tears he owed others in his life. He endured the discomfort and called Zhang Na again, and breathed a sigh of relief after receiving the news that Yiren was safe in the laboratory.
Margaret handed over a new ice pack and gently applied it on Brother Xiaoye's eyes. She looked at it with distress and concern and asked, "How are you doing? Are you feeling better?"
Li Muye hissed in pain and said, "This thing is so terrible, it's so spicy that my soul is about to be knocked out of my body. I'm a cook, so ordinary chili peppers are not a problem. He doesn't know what this is." It's made up by some damn stuff, it's really going to kill you."
Margaret said: "The ingredient test results have come out. It is a spray made from dragon's breath pepper. The spiciness is close to 2.5 million Scovilles, which is equivalent to one drop of pepper extract requiring 2.5 million drops of water." You can't feel the spiciness until it dissolves, and that's you, most people would be burned blind if they do this."
Li Muye asked with interest: "Are there many of these things?"
Margaret said: "It is said that it was accidentally cultivated by a British cook. There are a few farms in Mexico that grow a little bit for seasoning."
Li Muye said: "Purchase as much as you want." He gritted his teeth and said, "I will not give up until I take revenge on you!"
Margaret pursed her lips and smiled and asked, "Would you like to concentrate it into a spray?"
Li Muye said: "No need, just concentrate it, dry it into powder, wrap it up and give it to me."
In the next few days, Li Muye stayed at the Xius Manor to rest, and his eyes gradually recovered. Margaret did what she said, and she really got the dragon's breath pepper. She got hundreds of kilograms at a time, squeezed it into juice, purified and dried it into powder, packed half a kilogram and divided it into dozens of small paper bags. Leave it to Li Muye. I also specifically reminded that this purified and dried powder is more poisonous than the water-soluble spray. It has been tested on animals. A two thousand pound North American giant wild boar was burned to death after eating only half a package.
Li Muye's eyes were much better, and he looked fine on the outside, but the hatred in his heart could not subside for a while. Put these new magic weapons into your treasure bag, and when you meet that little brat again, give him a pack, so that the little brat can also have a taste of this.
Tinkering with new biological weapons is just a trivial matter. On the other hand, Brooke's diving equipment has been obtained, and the permission order for the deep-water expedition will be delivered soon.
Lao Bu got a book in the past few days, which is about health maintenance in the house. He put great enthusiasm into it, including dietary therapy, medicinal diet, and stretching exercises. He strictly followed the requirements in the book and did not dare to make any mistakes. This book was provided by Bai Wuxia and was naturally handed over by Li Muye. Lao Bu may not be able to understand everything, so you should come to ask for advice frequently. In order to maintain his glorious and majestic image in front of Lao Bu, Li Muye kept Margaret out of his way for days on the grounds of seclusion.
There was no movement from Bai Wuxia, so Li Muye tried to contact her to find out if he had gotten any valuable information from Donald. Bai Wuxia kept it secret and was unwilling to talk more about this matter. But he was notified that the beautiful witch's red elixir would be in place soon, and Li Muye was asked to be prepared.
The relationship between the two is ambiguous, but it cannot be regarded as a simple lover's relationship. Bai Wuxia lives a straightforward and free-spirited life. This woman is the enemy of everyone in the world, and her ambition to dominate the world is clearly revealed. Brother Xiao Ye yearns more for the life of Xianyun Yehe, and there is an almost unbridgeable gap between the two. Li Muye was more cautious in his attitude towards her. There's no problem with helping, but I'm not prepared to become a sworn enemy in the trenches.
Starting from Margaret's approach, Bai Wuxia was trying to pull Li Muye over step by step. Li Muye, on the other hand, tried his best to resist and tried to keep a safe distance from her. Bai Wuxia probably knew not to push this man too hard, so he didn't press too hard. This time, sending Zhan Hongyao could help Li Muye maintain the friendship with Brooke to a certain extent, and at the same time, it could also help Li Muye maintain his friendship with Brooke. Li Muye lives more comfortably.
Li Muye also felt that it was time to reduce contact with Brooke.
Of course, a person who can reach Brooke's status will not be a fool, but once this person is obsessed with something, he will often become unconscious and get stuck in it without realizing it or even unable to extricate himself. Today's Brooke and others are not much different from those confused emperors in ancient China who were obsessed with alchemy and immortality. For Li Muye, without much ambition, there was really no need to firmly control such a big man.
During this period, Li Muyuan called almost every day to ask when he would come home. The elder sister had a hot temper and was very dissatisfied with Li Muye's behavior of leaving Xiaofen and his several-month-old son for a month. Naturally, there was nothing nice to say on the phone. Half of them were concerned, and half of them were really angry. Xiaoye Ge was scolded every time and his head was bloody. The more fierce she scolded and the stricter the control, the stronger the sense of happiness and belonging in Li Mu's ambition became.
In this world, only those who truly care about themselves and are not wary would scold themselves like this.
The eyes are almost healed. No matter what Bai Wuxia means, things here are almost settled. The Xuanmen boy was a hidden danger, but Li Muye knew that he was seriously injured at the time, and if no one helped him, it would be difficult to recover within a few months. Li Muye felt it was time to say goodbye to Nana and return to his family. When they called, Nana unexpectedly refused, saying that parting was too melancholy and there was no need for siblings to be so sad.
Brother Xiaoye was a little disappointed, and Zhang Na said cheerfully, "Don't do more evil, and I will save a few more people, so I can atone for your sins." Li Muye couldn't say much, so he could only let her do what she wanted.
On this day, Li Muye said goodbye to Brooke, who was passionately in love with Zhan Hongyao, and left Arizona under the protection of Lao Cui, returning to Canada. Went to a restaurant first.
Toronto's China Building business is starting to pick up, but it's still far from ideal. The main reason is just one word: expensive! A meal can easily cost thousands of Canadian dollars. This is just the basic consumption level for entering the restaurant. If you go a little higher, it is not surprising that a meal can cost tens of thousands of dollars. It’s just expensive, but if you want to eat the most high-end health-enhancing and nourishing medicinal meals at Zhonghua House, you must make a reservation in advance. The reason is that Chinese food culture emphasizes that the food is never tired of fine food and the finer the meat is, the better the food is, the more carefully selected it is.
Chunyu Bingbing believes that the current restaurant business is developing in a good direction. As long as the price is slightly lowered and some popular dishes are added, the performance can be greatly increased and the turnover can be greatly increased. Li Muye told her that she didn't care about the profit level, as the current situation was good, and it didn't matter if she lost money.
I helped Huo Ze wipe out He Kee Hall a while ago, and it was not in vain. A large amount of money was credited to Li Muye's personal account. If he continues to operate at the current rate of losing money, it will be enough to cover his expenses for two to three years. Not to mention that Brother Xiaoye will not be idle in the past two or three years. Even if he does nothing and continues to lose money like this, it is estimated that the Zhou family and Bai Xue will not be able to bear the withdrawal of their shares. If they take ten thousand steps back, they can survive. Li Muye didn't care, he was determined to fight the Chen Miao siblings to the end.
Chen Binghui was not interested in the Zhonghua Building business. Brother Ah Hui was most concerned about whether Li Muye could obtain information from Schroeder Labs through Bai Wuxia's channels. But Li Muye didn't want to owe Bai Wuxia too much, so he never discussed the matter. Separated by mountains and rivers and an ocean on the other side, it was useless no matter how anxious Chen Binghui was.
The Zhou family has been suppressed by him, pinching their noses and admitting to lose money. It was okay to say that the scale of the business was small at the beginning, but now Li Muye is accelerating his expansion in North America, and his business is getting bigger and bigger, and he is losing more and more money. The Zhou family has begun to express their dissatisfaction, openly or covertly, and proposed to send people to participate in the management.
Chunyu Bingbing reported the situation to Li Muye.
Li Muye showed his true character as a shameless person and refused the request arrogantly. And took the initiative to call Chen Binghui to discuss the matter.
Chen Binghui was a little annoyed and said in a strong tone, "How can you not agree to the Zhou family's request and do things well for me?" You cannot take all the good things by yourself. He put forward conditions on the phone, either accept the Zhou family's request, or let you, Brother Hui, and me see something real. Otherwise, don't blame Brother Ah Fai for falling out, it would be boring for brothers to undermine each other.
Li Muye knew that he was in the wrong, and he also knew that he could not always point to Brother Ah Hui to suppress the Zhou family, while not giving any benefits to the head of the General Staff. Sooner or later, we have to go back to the country. It's too ugly to handle things now, and it won't be that easy to ask for help later. But he really didn't want to go to Bai Wuxia to do something, so after thinking about it for a while, he decided to find something valuable from other aspects to make Brother Ah Hui happy.
This other aspect does not include Diana, because doing so will embarrass the Russian daughter. To embarrass her is to embarrass his precious daughter Angel. I can't open my mouth to Li Zhonghua yet, because Lao Li has been holding back the idea of moving himself to Siberia to take over his job. He can definitely get it from Brooke, but Li Muye doesn't want to take the risk. So far, the reason why he has not aroused anyone's suspicion is largely because he has always had no desires or desires in this regard.
In the end, I could only try to communicate with Huo Ze.
Lao Huo has been operating overseas for many years and has friends and partners in both North America and Europe. He has his own science laboratory, and cooperates with the secret departments of some countries in some special fields. Occasionally, he also takes on outsourced jobs that are inconvenient for others to do, such as eradicating the roots and killing people.
Li Muye remembered a time when he and Lao Huo were drinking at the Zhonghua Tower. During the dinner, he mentioned that his laboratory had a cooperation project with the North American military, which was related to nanorobotics technology. Lao Huo was very happy at that time and talked a little too much when the wine was in full swing. When chatting about the anecdotes in the world, he casually mentioned the feud between him and Schroeder. Li Muye deliberately misled him and brought the topic to the field of nanotechnology applications.
Lao Huo took advantage of the wine and talked a lot.
This nanotechnology has a wide range of applications. For example, after a copper or silver conductor that conducts electricity and heat is made into a nanometer scale, it loses its original properties and appears to be neither electrically conductive nor thermally conductive. The same is true for magnetic materials, such as iron-cobalt alloy. If you make it about 20-30 nanometers in size, the magnetic domain will become a single magnetic domain, and its magnetism will be a thousand times higher than the original. When this technology develops to a certain level, it can be used to create magnetic levitation, which can create faster, more stable, and more energy-saving high-speed trains.
In 1999, Brazilian and American scientists invented the world's smallest "scale" while conducting experiments on carbon nanotubes, which could weigh one billionth of a gram, which is equivalent to the weight of a virus; shortly thereafter, Germany Scientists have developed a scale that can weigh a single atom, breaking a record jointly set by American and Brazilian scientists.
This record-breaking scientist comes from the Schroeder Laboratory. Lao Huo expressed disdain for this at the time, saying that Schroeder just had a good reputation. In terms of technology, he may not be more advanced than the laboratory that Lao Huo cooperated with the North American military.
He does not mean that.
At this time, Li Muye thought of Huo Ze, so he said on the phone that he had thought of a way, and promised Brother Ah Hui that he would find a way to get something real that satisfied him within three months. Chen Binghui then agreed to continue to suppress the Zhou family for the time being. If he could not get a satisfactory result after three months, Brother Xiaoye would bear all the consequences.
It is difficult to do profitable business, but anyone can do money-losing business. The bosses are not in a hurry to make a profit, so Chunyu Bingbing has no reason to be in a hurry to get angry.
After appeasing Sister Chunyu, Li Muye ordered Lao Cui to stay in Toronto to protect Margaret, and drove back to Montreal himself. Bite the bullet and return home, although Brooke's manor is as luxurious as the Golden Palace, in Brother Xiaoye's heart, it is far less warm and practical than the two-story villa of his eldest sister's house. A scolding from the eldest sister Li Muyuan is inevitable. Li Muye listened with a playful smile, and in the end Xiaofen just gave a few words of advice.
Li Muyuan didn't really want to scold his younger brother. The main reason was because he felt sorry for his younger brother and sister and was just indignant. Xiaofen wasn't even angry, how could she, a biological sister, deserve this? This is not a typical example of the emperor not being anxious and the eunuch being anxious.
At night, Uncle Makino, who is better off after a long absence than newlyweds, naturally wants to have some intimacy with his assistant, who has been experiencing drought for a long time.
Xiaofen didn't particularly resist. She just placed two chairs in the room, lay down between them with a smile, and then signaled to the uncle that he could come up.
Li Muye was a little confused: "How to do this?"
Xiaofen smiled and said: "Uncle, if you don't want to do it, I will put my son to sleep."
Li Muye hugged her and refused to let her go, saying, "You can't bully people like this. How can you do this?"
Xiaofen lowered her head and leaned on Li Muye's shoulder, saying seductively: "Be good, bear with me for now. I don't want to be with you on my bad side. Come on, it won't take long to do whatever you want with me." Now, when the time comes, you can handle everything on the front and back, above and below, on the table and bench."
Li Muye was a little surprised, and then thought of a possibility, excitedly: "Is my little Fen'er going to be promoted?"
The word "jianghu" was first seen in Zhuangzi, the great master. It is better to forget each other in the Jianghu.
Later, it also generally refers to the social environment in ancient times that did not accept the control, command and legal constraints of the authorities and acted appropriately.
Some people are born as people of the world, and after death they are also ghosts of the world.
This kind of person has never felt helpless, nor has he ever felt the sorrow of wandering around the world. When they are unlucky, they will not complain about the cruel and unfair fate of the world, but when they are proud, they will definitely drink and sing. In Li Muye's opinion, Huo Ze is such a person, and so is Bai Wuxia. Li Zhonghua is not. He is in the same category as Wang Ba and King Luo Jia. They all belong to the temple sect in the world. The desire for power and influence is greater than the desire for freedom and immortality.
Li Muye is different from these people. Brother Xiaoye is an ordinary person who strayed into the world. It was the world that chose him, not him who was obsessed with the world. In fact, deep down, what he longs for most is the small days where he and Mo can live without fighting against the world.
Of course, it's just longing. The saying that people cannot help themselves in the world is not just talk.
The tasks assigned by Bai Wuxia have been completed. She has not made any plans to launch the salvage. Seeing that October is approaching and the weather in North America is getting colder day by day, Li Muye is not sure whether she still plans to complete the exploration before winter comes. In other words, she has already accomplished what she wanted to do behind Brother Ono's back? In short, Li Muye didn't want his affairs to be delayed because of her. Taking advantage of these few days of leisure, I can just try to solve the things assigned by Chen Binghui.
Hozer settled in Manitoba. The small town of Hedgemo is located on the west side of Wapusk National Park, almost at the same latitude as Yakutsk. It is only two hundred kilometers away from the Hudson Bay and is full of lakes and tundra. It has far fewer trees than the southern area, making it unsuitable for long-term human settlement. The most important inhabitants of this place are polar bears. Approximately 10,000 animals live here.
Hedgemoor belongs to the plateau tundra. Huo Ze has been operating secretly here for many years, spending a lot of manpower and material resources to dig and build an underground castle that is not inferior to the city that never sleeps.
Devil Huo has been very proud of himself in the recent period. After winning He Kee Hall, he has established a firm foothold in North America. The foundation of Evernight City was occupied by the Taiping Society, but his losses were not great because most of the gold had already been brought to North America by him.
The cunning rabbit still has three caves, not to mention the old world with enemies like Huo Ze all over the world.
He laid out in North America a long time ago. Taking over the territory of He Kee Hall means that the businesses that Evernight City was engaged in before can openly make waves in the North American market. He is engaged in profiteering industries related to pornography, gambling and drugs. The expansion of his business territory will definitely bring a steady stream of cash flow. This money will allow him to continue to increase his influence, recruit talents, and continuously enhance the strength of the underground castle's technology laboratory.
Of course, it's not all good. After the collapse of He Kee Hall, the North American Hongmen Association has been thinking about this piece of fat, but it was occupied by Huo Ze with lightning speed. How could the Hongmen Association be willing to accept it? The big leader is Huang Yongshen's brother-in-law. Under the guise of revenge for his brother-in-law, he openly declares war on the city that never sleeps. In the past few months, the two sides have been fighting openly and secretly.
Li Muye came to see Huo Ze, greeted him in advance, and set off on a date.
This time I went out without Margaret, but Xiaofen personally accompanied me.
The two rented a medium-sized private jet from Toronto and traveled more than 2,000 kilometers before arriving at Hedgemoor. As soon as I got off the plane, I was surrounded by a group of people... (End of this chapter)
