It's just an idea for the time being. When to implement it depends on the situation.

Although the dwarves love blacksmithing, they belong to the type that can't walk when they see good materials. The gold coins that Shi Xiaolei exchanged from the system will definitely arouse their interest, but don't forget that the dwarves have already had a relationship with Aspen. Gard signed an unbreakable contract.

Asgard provided shelter for the dwarves, who in turn provided Asgard with armory. In this contract signed thousands of years ago, a rule was clearly set - all works related to combat, whether it is weapons or armor, can only be supplied to Asgard.

I have been to Asgard, where I saw a few dwarves who opened a shop for a living, and even ordered a batch of products from them.

Even though they never thought of ordering custom-made weapons or armor with them at the time, in the process of dealing with them, they would still talk about some contract-related content. After going back and forth, Shi Xiaolei had a relatively clear understanding of the contract between the dwarves and the Asgardians.

If I rushed to the door rashly, the dwarves might not agree to my request.

Although they will be moved after seeing the gold coins, for them, the protection of Asgard is obviously more important.

Either ask Thor to come forward, or ask Loki to help out. Besides, you have to vent to Odin, who is in charge of the house, and get his permission. Perhaps because of the familiar and close relationship between the two parties, the three of Odin and his son will be very easy-going and agree to it easily, but just looking at the nature of the matter itself, it is actually more or less out of the 'private matter' category.

so…

Regardless of whether people will ask for benefits or not, as a seeker, Shi Xiaolei must not come to the door empty-handed.

To ask for a favor from Asgard requires some price. In addition, after going to Nivada, a thank-you gift must be prepared for the dwarves who are responsible for doing the work. Thinking about it carefully, the process is still a little bit troublesome, not that it can be completely done in just one or two sentences.

Time passed day by day, and in a blink of an eye, it was already February.

A sudden light rain interrupted the rising temperature. The beauties on the street who had changed into skirts in advance could only honestly take out the winter clothes that had been put away for a few days, and wrapped themselves up again. Zongzi.

It is much warmer inside the house than outside.

"Ugh." Taking off her hat and scarf, and trotting into the room, Kang Na threw herself on the sofa, rolling back and forth a few times with the soft square pillow in her arms.

"It's still comfortable at home." Shi Xiaolei followed into the house, beside him, followed by 2B and Yixian.

Today is the Lunar New Year's Eve, according to Shi Xiaolei's idea, he originally planned to stay at home, get together with his family and have a happy reunion dinner.

just...

There is a saying that plans are not as fast as changes.

It just so happened that a business investigation group came from China... the main personnel consisted of high-level executives from various Chinese-funded multinational companies, and many of them were officially named. In order to entertain, the consulate held a New Year's dinner by the way, and sent invitations to some Chinese businessmen doing business in the United States.

Although he doesn't take much care of it, it is undeniable that Shi Xiaolei does have a lot of property under his name. It is not unreasonable to say that he is a tycoon in the business circle if he insists on dividing his identity.

Of course, Shi Xiaolei also received an invitation letter.

Different from the similarly private invitations of previous years, it has a somewhat formal feel. According to Shi Xiaolei's personality all along, he is actually not very interested.

But thinking that this dinner party was organized by the consulate... After all, I usually go to the consulate a lot, and I always get some small gifts from China from Peng Mingwei and the others, so I have received a lot of care. Therefore, as a friend, Shi Xiaolei felt that it was still necessary to show some face and respond to the party led by the consulate.

Therefore, Shi Xiaolei could only temporarily change the plan, took a vacation with the family members who had already gathered in the manor, and took 2B, Yixian and Kang Na to the dinner party held by the consulate.

I deliberately didn't bring Missouri with me, and I planned to use the excuse of "the secretary who knows the details is not around, so I can't make any promises to you now" to avoid those conversations related to business cooperation. It has to be said that in order to avoid those topics that he didn't want to be involved in, Shi Xiaolei took some thought.

But well.

Some people came here for him, even if Shi Xiaolei didn't follow Missouri, they have already prepared a very detailed research material. In addition, those friends from the consulate are threading needles in the middle...

Shi Xiaolei still couldn't escape completely.

All in all, in the dialogue with these domestic businessmen, Shi Xiaolei made a lot of promises and got some guarantees. Because the matter involves many aspects, and the scope of influence will be relatively large... Well, the main reason is that the other party's question is a bit narrow, so, in order to cope with this conversation, Shi Xiaolei really lost a lot of brain cells, and the mental consumption is also a bit big .

Now back home, feeling the relaxed and peaceful atmosphere again, Shi Xiaolei relaxed a lot as if soaked in warm water.

"Commander~!" After sitting down for a while, he heard crisp laughter again.

Before Shi Xiaolei could turn his head away, there was a burst of laughter like silver bells, mixed with the fragrant wind, and then, Shi Xiaolei's eyes went dark, and his head was firmly hugged by a few soft hands.

"Don't make trouble, let me take it easy." That's what Shi Xiaolei said, but Shi Xiaolei's tone was full of indulgence, without any trace of disgust or disgust.

"Hey, no~." The soft and waxy response was full of mischief. Kongxiang hugged Shi Xiaolei's head vigorously, and wrapped his long and thin legs around his waist: "Commander, do I smell good? Hehe, we just finished soaking in the hot spring and had a spa..."

Before he could finish speaking, Kong Xiang had already been grabbed by the collar.

After a while of yelling, under Richelieu's suppression, the girl was finally pulled aside, allowing Shi Xiaolei to regain the light again.

"Thank you, Sister Li~." Stretching out his fingers to admire the fantasy, Shi Xiaolei turned his head to look at Richelieu, and Shi Xiaolei showed a big smile: "Didn't you go with Jean Bart, Dunkirk and the others?" ?”

"They went back to their room to drink." Richelieu smiled, and sat down next to Xiang Xiang: "It is said that a lot of water has been evaporated, and it needs to be replenished. Hehe, I just want to drink red wine~www.mtlnovel. com~ Wearing a soft velvet pajamas with a pattern of small floral patterns, although Richelieu is still showing a bit of extravagance uncontrollably, he does not have the usual heroic feeling. On the contrary It highlights the more feminine side of being a woman, showing the unique elegance and romance of the French.

Of course, compared to the inconspicuous home clothes on his body, what Shi Xiaolei cares more about is the small gift in Richelieu's hand.

"What is this, a New Year's gift for me?"

"Yeah." Nodding slightly, Richelieu held the delicately packaged little gift in both hands, and handed it to Shi Xiaolei: "I drew it by myself, it may not look very good, Commander, don't be disgusted."

"Draw it by hand? So, is this a painting?" After receiving the gift, Shi Xiaolei showed curiosity: "Can I take it apart now?"

"certainly."
