 Chapter 188 188 Dream Showbiz

The nobleman who came with the woman didn't seem to have the ability to cooperate with the Datang Group. He was dressed in strange clothes and only had "I am an artist" written on his face.

Sure enough, this nobleman did not come to discuss business with Tang Mo. Instead, he introduced the female companion he had brought with him: "Let me introduce, this is the most famous singer in the most famous song and dance troupe in the Kingdom of Wright. Ji, the most well-deserved female singer in the kingdom, Miss Susan.”

 In fact, judging from his aura, Tang Mo also knew that this nobleman was not the protagonist of this meeting, but the woman was.

 So he gently grabbed the hand offered by the woman, kissed the back of the other person's hand, then released his hand in a very gentlemanly manner, nodded with a smile: "Ah, it's nice to meet you, Miss Susan."

"Mr. Tang is really young and promising." The woman, who was about 27 or 27 years old, had delicate makeup on her face and flattered Tang Mo with a smile.

Tang Mo was naturally very humble. Since the other party didn't come up to talk about the matter, Tang Mo would be polite and praise him here and there: "No, compared to artists, I am just a layman."

To be honest, in terms of temperament, this woman is even better than Alice, who was born into a noble family. Although she is not as young and beautiful as Alice, her facial features are also very delicate.

Just by virtue of this appearance, the other party can mix well in the aristocratic circle, or even if she marries a random aristocrat, she can definitely become a genuine noble lady.

However, from some small details of the other party's attire, Tang Mo could still see that the other party was not as rich as he thought.

The woman was obviously not in a hurry to talk about her own affairs, but instead mentioned the fashionable clothes that Tang Mo had made in Bunas before: "Hahaha! Mr. Tang was joking. I heard that the most popular clothes in Bunas are now The outfit, a kind of clothing called a suit, was designed by you, Mr. Tang Mo? "

This suit was familiar to Tang Mo and more convenient, so he made it in his factory first and asked the tailor to make a few sets.

Later, Roger didn’t have any new clothes, so Tang Mo made him a set of clothes. As a result, Wes also thought the clothes were pleasing to the eye, so he also made a set.

Furthermore, after Parker and many factory managers got money, they all made themselves this suit of clothes according to the same style without knowing what they were thinking.

Eventually... with the development of Datang Group in Bunas, this kind of clothing gradually became popular, and even began to expand to the entire kingdom.

 Now, even in the royal city, people wearing such clothes can be seen walking in the streets.

 So this set of clothes is also famous. It is not surprising that someone knows that this set of clothes was designed by Tang Mo. Especially those who are dedicated to this aspect can naturally find out something easily.

Tang Mo was not surprised either. He waved his hand and said with a smile, "It's not worth mentioning. I just made a set of work clothes randomly for the convenience of work."

The woman named Susan also smiled like a flower: "You are so modest. I really like the suit you are wearing when I see it."

In the end, the nobleman who brought Susan to Tang Mo couldn't help it anymore, and explained first: "Miss Susan is looking for a partner. Her theater troupe was funded by the Sirik Consortium before the Royal City. Now Sirik The Grameen Consortium is no longer in the mood to be arty, so..."

Tang Mo was stunned. He felt that he could invest in art and expand his influence.

These are necessary investments. After Tang Mo's career reaches a broader level, he will definitely need some support from the art circle.

 So, he doesn’t mind investing some money in advance, especially this kind of early investment, which is cheap and efficient, so why not do it?

What's more, Tang Mo thinks it's definitely worthwhile to let these singers, performers, dancers, etc. perform in casinos and hotels to increase their popularity.

So he thought for a moment and then said to Susan: "I understand... In fact, I also have great ideas to enrich myself in the field of art. So, Miss Susan, how many gold coins do you need?"

"About 130 gold coins per year..." Susan thought for a while and offered a relatively conservative price. In fact, Cyric had previously provided her with 170 gold coins per year, but she was worried that Tang Mo would not be willing to pay such a high price.

 After all, not every businessman is in an arty mood, and not everyone has the spare money to support an art team.

 So, she felt that even if she took less and everyone saved a little, she could still make ends meet with 130 gold coins.

Who allowed his financial backer, the Cyric Consortium, to be defeated by the forces behind the young man in front of him? After all, people are under the roof and have to bow their heads.

"130 gold coins a year? Cyric only gave this little?" Tang Mo's eyes widened in disbelief, as if he couldn't believe it.

The price was indeed too cheap, so cheap that it was beyond his expectation. He really didn't expect that raising a theater troupe would be so cheap in this world.

  You said that the big stars in later generations who evaded taxes were always cool, cool, and elegant, and they all pushed Tang Mo's imagination to an unprecedented height.

 So, when he heard the price, he couldn't believe his ears: he was really afraid whether these two people really knew how valuable the circle he was in was.

 Then he looked at the noble again, with a look of disbelief on his face: "Is Miss Susan really the leading female singer in the kingdom?"

"Uh... Indeed, indeed, indeed." The little nobleman became nervous and stammered in reply.

“I am definitely the best singer!” Susan solemnly and definitely defended her name.

As soon as Tang Mo saw the awkward expressions of the two people, he knew that what they both said must be true. He also didn't believe that after the Battle of Bunas, someone who still wanted to make a living in the Kingdom of Wright would have the guts to come here and cheat him out of his gold coins.

Therefore, he thought for a moment and said: "I will give you 500 gold coins a year! Change your troupe's name to Datang Troupe, and then I will send someone to send you scripts and business strategies! The development of your troupe requires Datang Group to Fully taken over, any questions?”

"This..." The nobleman was a little confused about the situation. He looked at Tang Mo and didn't know what to say.

Susan was also shocked by Tang Mo's generosity. She confirmed with some uncertainty: "You, how much did you say?"

Tang Mo repeated the amount he said, and then emphasized it again: "Five hundred gold coins a year! In addition, your tickets and advertising expenses will be counted as your performance commission, and you will allocate it yourself!"

"Are you telling the truth?" Susan's eyes showed surprise, and she stared at Tang Mo, as if she was about to overflow with tears.

Tang Mo nodded and replied, "Yes!"

"You are really a good person." The sweetness in Susan's tone increased at a geometric speed. Tang Mo felt that he should speak more clearly: "No, miss, I am a businessman!"

"So, what do you want to buy from me? Tonight...I can have a good chat with you about opera." Susan raised her chest and raised her head with a seductive look.

She is already a veteran in this field. How can she still look like an innocent little girl when she can move among these nobles?

 In fact, she was also having an affair with the little noble next to her, otherwise the other party would not have brought her to persuade Tang Mo on such an occasion.

 Obviously, Tang Mo is not very interested in this kind of famous prostitute, because he has collected female celebrities before traveling, from China and abroad, black, white, yellow, various colors, tall and short... there are too many.

Tang Mo also heard the overtone of the other party's words. The other party's so-called chatting about opera at night was just to seduce him.

So he spoke sternly and quickly fixed the topic within a serious category: "I don't have time to talk about opera! Miss! What I want to buy is your troupe, not your body!"

“…” The other party did not expect that Tang Mo would reject an affair so simply, and there was still a surprised expression on his face.

Tang Mo was afraid that the other party would misunderstand and thought that he disliked the other party's ruined beauty, so he explained: "You are indeed a beauty, but I am not one of those old perverts from Cyric... Do your job well and make me feel like I am The theater you paid for is worth the money, that’s enough!”

Susan swallowed and felt that the man in front of her was a little different from other nobles. She felt a little regretful, regretting that she had given her body to others too early.

However, this regret was fleeting. Then she nodded and said to Tang Mo: "I understand, I understand."

After sending the singer away, Tang Mo received several nobles and wealthy businessmen who came to discuss business cooperation. When no one came anymore, Alice returned to him with a wine glass.

Alice looked at Susan who was exchanging cups with several nobles in the distance, and deliberately asked Tang Mo: "Isn't that Susan?"

Tang Mo nodded, not denying it at all: "It's her."

"Why is she gone? Don't you talk to her about art tonight?" Alice was very familiar with Susan and asked Tang Modao directly.

Tang Mo answered Alice simply: "I have to rush back to Bunas tonight..."

"You are really a man who doesn't understand the charm." After Alice heard Tang Mo's answer, she couldn't hide the smile in her eyes.

"Maybe." Tang Mo nodded, agreeing very much with Alice's evaluation. He is very picky about women. For those women he doesn't like, he can be described as a straight man or ruthless.

 Alice smiled and said to Tang Mo, "But I like it."

"..." Tang Mo looked at Alice, and then his mouth was blocked by Alice.

Tang Mo could not have stayed in Wolf City for too long. In fact, he returned to Bunas that night, taking his own train.

This form of transportation is very convenient and requires little preparation. His guards can also go with this train to protect his safety.

Just before Tang Mo left Wolf City, a telegram was sent from Wolf City, and Bunas' expedition fleet was remotely controlled and left Bunas Port under the cover of night.

The scale of this fleet is very large, because after Tang Mo killed Cyric, he acquired several transport fleets anchored under the Cyric consortium.

 Then, he commandeered almost all the ships, took almost all the wealth he could find, commanded by Roger, and sailed to Black Dragon Island in a mighty manner.

Tang Mo’s fleet includes 19 large transport ships, 32 small transport ships and armed merchant ships, and 1 steel warship for escort.

 The entire fleet transported a variety of equipment and raw materials that could build two factories on Heilong Island, as well as about 2,000 workers and their families.

Similarly, a battalion of security forces from the Datang Group were also moved together, and all their weapons were transported together.

 According to the plan, Datang Group will build two factories on Heilong Island, build a simple dock, and build some housing to ensure that immigrants can survive on the island.

 The reconnaissance fleet led by Bernard has returned. They will serve as the **** for the second batch of transport fleets, bringing 40 small transport ships to Black Dragon Island again.

This development plan is more than twice as large as the previous plan drawn up by Tang Mo. This is also due to changes in the situation.

 When the previous plan was drawn up, Tang Mo had not yet defeated the Cyric Consortium, so the expansion plan was obviously much more conservative.

 Now that he has grown up in Bunas and even the Kingdom of Wright, he can naturally invest more power in fighting for the Black Dragon Island.

 In short, for Tang Mo, time is his most precious thing. In order to develop faster, he did not even have time to stay in Wolf City for one night to be affectionate with Alice.

With the armored ships following him, Tang Mo could control the progress of his expansion on Black Dragon Island in real time, and at the same time, he could remotely command the troops deployed there.

 So he put almost half of his strength on Black Dragon Island. After all, he was worried that those countries that had also discovered Black Dragon Island would take advantage of this island.

As a result, on the day Tang Mo returned to Bunas, he received new news: the Kingdom of Yangmu defeated its old rival the Kingdom of Gales, annexed the Seine Plain, and expanded its territory by almost an inch. times.

The Poplar Kingdom’s steam engines and K1 fast guns have become famous, and the influence of this Elf Kingdom has also increased unprecedentedly.

After hearing the news, John, who was worrying about Tang Mo's entertainment kingdom in Bunas, walked into Tang Mo's office with an ugly face.

 He first apologized again for his father's broken promise, and at the same time expressed his attitude of clearing his position with the Augustine family.

Tang Mo comforted him and handed him a bill - the gold coins owed to him by the Augustine family already amounted to 3.1 million in interest...
