Chapter 471 Yiyu North Club
The battle in Bingzhou was raging, but in the distant land from Luancheng to Yiyudong, the railway construction boom was not affected at all, but was proceeding in full swing.
The railway group run by Zhao Sheng, like a huge rock thrown into a calm lake, announced an eye-catching news.
That is, after the railway in Yi Yudong is completed, the construction of the railway line in Yi Yubei will be started immediately.
This railway line is being spearheaded by the Yiyu North Chamber of Commerce, working in conjunction with the Yiyu South Chamber of Commerce. The specific route remains shrouded in mystery, yet to be unveiled.
As soon as the news came out, it instantly caused an uproar in the local area, like a blockbuster bomb exploding in people's hearts.
The Yi Yubei Chamber of Commerce is an alliance formed with the second generation of descendants from large grassland families such as Nalan Xiongying as its core. The industries of each family are intertwined and closely connected.
Among them, Dun Chanyu's son successfully became the president of the Yi Yubei Chamber of Commerce by relying on his family's prestige and his own abilities.
On this day, the sun shone through the thin clouds and sprinkled on the vibrant land of Yiyubei.
Nalan Yilan, dressed in gorgeous clothes, came to the Chamber of Commerce with her maid Dema, walking with elegant steps.
The so-called chamber of commerce in Yi Yubei has a completely different style from that in the south bank.
This place is more like a huge tavern. On weekdays, when the Chamber of Commerce members have nothing to do, they will get together and discuss matters in the aroma of wine.
In the past, there were almost no women here, making it like a castle exclusively for men.
But ever since Lan Yilan arrived like a breath of fresh air, this long-standing balance was completely broken.
Gradually, many women appeared in the Chamber of Commerce, including children of noble families and even princesses from royal families.
However, it is rare to see someone as openly appear in a tavern as Lan Yilan.
Yelu Feng saw Lan Yilan coming from afar, and his eyes lit up instantly. He quickly picked up a pot of wine that exuded an alluring aroma, walked forward with a smile on his face, and said:
"Roland, here's some great wine, would you like some?"
Nalan Yilan had no aversion to Yelu Feng, and her family was interested in arranging a marriage between the two families.
So Yelu Feng's arrival made her feel happy, and she responded with a smile: "Pour me a bowl, I'm thirsty too."
The beautiful woman's sweet smile made Yelu Feng feel as if he was struck by an electric current, and his whole body trembled slightly.
He quickly waved for a crystal-clear glass and said excitedly, "Fine wine in a glass, drunken bedside with a beautiful woman by your side! When it comes to drinking wine, you should use a glass to savor its flavor."
Ever since Zhao Sheng invented glass, everyone called it colored glaze at first. Later, a word came out from somewhere saying that glass was more expensive than colored glaze. As a result, everyone was proud to own glass products, and glass gradually became a symbol of nobility.
The blood-red wine slowly poured into the glass, reflecting a dreamy purple light.
Lan Yilan elegantly picked up the wine glass and gently swirled it, enjoying the beauty of the moment. She smiled and teased, "There's a saying in the Central Plains: 'If someone shows kindness without any reason, he's either a traitor or a thief.' So, what's the matter?"
Yelu Feng's mouth curled up slightly, revealing a helpless smile, and he muttered to himself: Don't you know what I want to do? You ask even though you know the answer.
However, he quickly changed the subject and said, "This time, the two major chambers of commerce in the north and south are planning to build a railway, but the railway line has not yet been planned. What do you think is the best route?"
"You're asking that, but I don't understand it. For things like this, we should learn a little more from the South Shore Chamber of Commerce. Look at how they enjoy themselves, and then look at us, all we do is drink all day and never do anything."
Although Lan Yilan was joking, there was a hint of seriousness in her words.
She really couldn't stand these second-generation people on the grassland, who lived a life of luxury and idleness in Yi Yu all day long.
“Everyone wants to build the railway to their own village so they can collect high tolls.”
When Yelu Feng spoke, there was a hint of mockery in his eyes, as if he was quite disdainful of everyone's thoughts.
"You're talking like you're planning to rob people on the highway. Are you going to rob people just because they have a road?"
Lan Yilan really couldn't figure out what was going on in the minds of these second-generation people. They could have worked together to make money, but why did they have to act independently and fight over a little personal gain?
"In fact, building a railway is a good thing. It allows us to quickly trade goods from the grasslands here, and also allows us to transport good things from here to the grasslands, including the food we need."
As Yelu Feng spoke, his eyes sparkled with excitement, as if through the wine glass in front of him, he had already seen the future scene of the grassland and the outside world exchanging what they have and prospering.
Nalan Yilan stared at Yelu Feng's eyes, her eyes full of admiration, like a fangirl who was in love with him, and she was reluctant to look away.
However, the good atmosphere is always easy to be broken.
Just as they were having a pleasant conversation, there was a loud bang and the door of the club was slammed open, and several big men rushed in aggressively.
The leader was none other than Gojile, the brother-in-law of Dun's second son, Huxietu. He usually followed Huxietu around, so he felt that he was superior and acted arrogantly.
At this moment, he saw Lan Yilan sitting there drinking. His eyes lit up immediately. He held a large wine glass filled with white wine, bared his big yellow teeth, and approached with a wretched look on his face, saying:
"Naran sister, brother is toasting you one, take a big bite and brother will show you one."
Goerle's reputation in Yi Yu is really not very good. He likes to touch and tease the maids in the club on weekdays. Everyone treats him as a plague god and stays away from him.
Wherever Gozel is present, there are almost no female maids to be seen.
Seeing this person approaching so shamelessly, Lan Yilan felt disgusted and said mercilessly and viciously, "Get out!!!"
Gojile didn't care about Lan Yilan's bad attitude at all, but leaned forward again, with a disgusting smile still on his face.
She continued, "Brother can roll, but only on the bed. Do you want to roll with me now?"
Seeing his master being bullied like this, Dema was furious. He stood in front of Lan Yilan without hesitation and said in a low voice with a serious face, "Please stay away from my master."
Seeing that the fat body completely blocked his view of Lan Yilan, Gozel immediately became angry and without saying a word, he stepped forward and slapped Dema in the face. With a "pa" sound, it hit Dema's forehead heavily.
Dema was caught off guard and was knocked to the ground. His body curled up on the side, twitching in pain.
Seeing this, Yelu Feng's anger suddenly rose up. He jumped off the chair, reached out and pushed Goerile hard, and shouted: "What are you doing!"
Unexpectedly, Goerile reacted very quickly, grabbed Yelu Feng's hand, and tripped him with a sweeping kick. With a "thump", Yelu Feng was knocked to the ground.
