Chapter 1191 Extra: Sowing Discord
"Call all the doctors!" The patriarch of the Coffey family roared: "If Casey can't wake up, let them all be buried with him!"
The Coffey family was restless all night.
After hearing the news, Yin Yuhan finally let out a sigh of relief.
He dared to make plans for him, he really didn't want to live!
On the other side, Gu Miao met with a person in the Coffey family who was a bit marginalized. His name was Vos Coffey, and his identity was the cousin of the current patriarch.
Originally, according to the rules, the Coffey family was to be inherited by the cousin's father.
But when the cousin's father was young, he did a lot of absurd things, which hollowed out his body. He died in his thirties and went to see God.
So the burden of the Coffey family fell on the father of the current patriarch.
After so many years of management, the former patriarch has managed the Coffey family very well.
He has also controlled the current situation, making the Coffey family the actual ruler of the GJ country.
However, Voss Kofi was very unwilling.
Because in the past, when the family was handed over to the former patriarch, it was said that he would manage it on behalf of Voss, and when Voss grew up, he would return it to Voss.
However, when Voss grew up, the position of patriarch was not returned to him, but was handed over to the former patriarch's son, the current patriarch.
Voss was sidelined.
On the surface, Voss didn't care, but he was very resentful in his heart. Obviously, he should be the one in charge of the family, but because his uncle took away the position of patriarch, it now became his cousin's.
So, Gu Miao targeted Voss and planned to turn him against him.
On this day, as soon as Voss arrived, Gu Miao came out to greet him in person: "Brother Voss, your beard is getting more and more handsome."
Voss, who was praised, was immediately happy: "Gu, you are indeed a person with vision."
"Of course, I admire brave, smart and courageous warriors the most." Gu Miao smiled and invited Voss into the yard, and asked someone to send the best Longjing tea, saying: "This is the new tea I just had airlifted in, try it?"
"Okay, you still understand my thoughts best." Voss picked up the teacup with an expression of enjoyment on his face.
Voss likes oriental tea very much, but GJ is a country that has just been established not long ago, and it has not established diplomatic relations with many countries outside, so it is very difficult to get oriental luxury goods.
However, after Gu Miao came, he gave him a lot of oriental gifts, which made Voss very happy, and he and Gu Miao visited more and more frequently.
Every time Gu Miao met Voss, he never talked about work, but only talked about love.
This really scratched Voss's itch. Gu Miao's talent and eloquence made Voss regret not meeting him earlier.
The two quickly became good friends.
"What book are you reading?" Voss saw a book not far away and asked curiously, "Are you reading a famous book again?"
"Oh, it's a history book." Gu Miao pretended to be casual, put the book in front of him, opened it and closed it again: "This is about a famous history of our country, called the Xuanwu Gate Incident."
"Is the story interesting?" Voss asked with interest.
"It's quite interesting. It mainly tells the story of a king in our history. His son, who originally had no right of succession, used means to kill the first heir and sat on the throne himself." Gu Miao pretended to be nonchalant and replied, "These are all historical stories. Let's not talk about this."
"Really? I think this is a very interesting story." Voss's ears moved, as if he thought of something, and said, "Then can you tell me this story?"
"This..." Gu Miao hesitated for a moment: "Didn't we agree to only talk about love and nothing else?"
"Since it is a thing of the past, it is just a story." Seeing that Gu Miao was unwilling to talk, Voss felt that there must be something he wanted to hear in it, and immediately said anxiously. "Gu, my friend, please satisfy my curiosity. You know, our place has always been very closed, and there has been no communication and communication with the outside world. I don't have any great history, so I especially want to hear stories from the outside world."
Gu Miao's mouth curled up, very good, the fish took the bait, and it was worth it for him to arrange people to blow all kinds of wind in Voss's ears and brag about the greatness of Han culture.
Otherwise, how could Voss be fascinated by tea and stories from the East?
Now that the fish has taken the bait, it's time for him to close the net.
Gu Miao pretended to struggle, and finally said as if he was convinced, "Okay, since you want to hear the story so much, I'll tell you one. But we've agreed that we'll only talk about romance and nothing else in the future."
Voss readily agreed.
"This is the history. In our country, there was an era called Tang." Gu Miao told Voss about the history and scale of the Tang Dynasty, describing to Voss a powerful and prosperous country with countless wealth, how happy the people in that country were, what they ate, what they wore, what articles they wrote, in short, the description was extremely gorgeous, and Voss looked fascinated.
Then he changed his tone and mentioned the royal family.
He mentioned the Xuanwu Gate Incident.
Gu Miao was very eloquent, and he told this history in a thrilling way, with twists and turns everywhere, which attracted Voss so much that he listened to Gu Miao's story attentively.
When Gu Miao talked about Li Shimin leading troops to force the palace, beheading his brothers, and forcing his father to give up the throne, Voss's eyes lit up.
"Oh my God, it's possible to do this?" Voss expressed disbelief: "What happened later? Was this usurper Li Shimin cursed?"
"How could it be?" Gu Miao replied: "Not only was he not cursed, but he became an emperor of the ages, and his reputation has been passed down through the ages. People still talk about him today, saying that he opened a prosperous era. Under his governance, the entire Tang Dynasty was highly developed, the territory was expanded, the people worshiped, and the vassal states all submitted. They were all surnamed Li, so why couldn't he be the monarch?"
Voss seemed to be lit up all of a sudden.
Yes, his surname is Kofi, and he is a member of the Kofi family.
Since everyone has the surname Kofi, why should the Kofi family fall into the hands of others?
Why can't he take back what originally belonged to him?
The position of the patriarch of this family should have belonged to him!
It was his uncle who was shameless and took the position and passed it to his cousin.
So why can't he take it back?
Voss stood up and walked back and forth excitedly.
Gu Miao looked like he knew nothing and said, "Is my story not good? It doesn't matter, let's not talk about this. Do you want to try the Da Hong Pao I just brought..."
"No, no, no, Gu, my good friend, I suddenly have something to do today, I think I should go back! Your tea is very good, I like it very much, but can I taste it next time?" Voss felt that he seemed to have opened a great door and needed to go back and think about it carefully.
"Really? That's really no way! Okay, I'll have someone pack the Da Hong Pao, you take it back and taste it slowly. If you like it, tell me, I will prepare better tea for you." Gu Miao said with an understanding look.
"Gu, you are so nice! It is my honor to know you as a friend!" Voss patted Gu Miao's shoulder and said, "I will go back first."
"Okay." Gu Miao sent Voss away. When he could no longer see the car, he said to the person behind him, "Go tell that person to mention the story of Chen Sheng and Wu Guang's uprising and the story of Kangxi's nine dragons' fight for the throne in front of Voss."
"Yes." The man left with a smile.
Gu Miao picked up the teacup and sipped the tea leisurely.
Rebellion is really interesting!
If the other party is those European people, it can't be done this way.
However, my country is so backward that it doesn't even have a decent history of civilization. It would be a pity if we don't talk about so many historical stories in our country?
"Really good tea." Gu Miao smiled lightly, with a happy smile in his red eyes.
On the other side, Yin Yuhan, who had been actively negotiating, suddenly became cold and stopped chasing Kofi's patriarch to discuss mining.
At first, the patriarch didn't feel it.
It was not until three days later that the patriarch discovered that the president of the Yin family, who had been keen on negotiating with him, seemed unwilling to pay attention to him.
At this time, a servant came hurriedly and reported in a low voice: "Patriarch, it's not good. Some people have been visiting Yin these days. It seems that they plan to sell the rubber plantation at home to Yin."
The patriarch said puzzledly: "Rubber plantation? Doesn't he want a mine? Why is he suddenly interested in the rubber plantation again?"
"I haven't heard about this."
"I'll go and see it myself." The patriarch couldn't sit still.
The patriarch actually wanted to sell this mine.
These rare earths are useful to others, but to him, they are not as useful as gold.
However, the patriarch knew that his youngest daughter had ideas about Yin Yuhan, so he deliberately suppressed Yin Yuhan and refused to talk about the deal.
But if Yin Yuhan really didn't buy it, the patriarch would also be anxious.
So the patriarch hurried to where Yin Yuhan lived and met Yin Yuhan in person.
It was a coincidence that when the clan leader came, he saw the owner of a rubber plantation leaving with a smile on his face.
"Yin, why didn't you come to drink with me these days?" The clan leader greeted with a smile.
Yin Yuhan's mouth curled up, very good, this fish has also been hooked.
Yin Yuhan sighed and said, "Originally, I wanted to apologize to you, clan leader."
"Oh? What do you mean?" the clan leader asked.
"It's like this. I came here to discuss other projects, as you know. Those projects have been negotiated, but I stayed for a few more days because of my selfishness. My family already knows that I want to buy the rare earth mine project, and they are very unhappy." Yin Yuhan said with a sad look.
"Why are you unhappy?" the clan leader asked curiously.
"This is because our Yin family has discovered a rare earth mine with even richer reserves in another country, and the price is very low. My father is negotiating business there, and I think the contract will be signed in the next few days. Since the project here is not going well, let me give up the project and rush back as soon as possible." Yin Yuhan replied.
