The Heavens Start to Reverse Fate from Martial Arts

Chapter 27: Admiral's Meeting
Two days later, in the evening.

In front of the gate of the palace.

bang bang bang...

"Open the door! Open the door quickly!"

In front of the heavy dark red gate, five officers dressed in yamen uniforms and holding wooden red tasseled spears were banging on the door violently.

With a creak, the dark red door slowly opened.

Ah Fu poked his head out to look. When he saw that it was actually the government officials outside the door, he subconsciously shrank his neck and asked in a trembling voice, "Officials, what are you doing...?"

"Is this the residence of Wang Yi, the owner of Limin Commercial Bank?" The leading officer stepped forward and asked sternly.

"No...no." Ah Fu denied it subconsciously.

"Hmph! Do you really think we are idiots? Considering your young age, I will forgive you for knowing the truth and lying this time. Get out of the way!" The leading officer snorted coldly, pushed Ah Fu away roughly, and led his men straight into the house.

Ah Fu staggered back a few steps, then fell to the ground. He stood up in a panic, trotting after him, and kept shouting with tears in his eyes, "My lords, the young master is a good man, you can't hurt him..."

The officer at the back frowned, turned around and kindly said, "Don't worry, the admiral only summoned him to find out some information."

He naturally knew that the owner of Limin Trading Company was a good person, and they also had a general understanding of the affairs of Limin Trading Company. Such merchants who were dedicated to serving the people were too rare.

But no matter how wholeheartedly you serve the people, if you touch upon the interests of foreigners, things will become very troublesome. Wouldn't that bring trouble upon yourself?
Ah Fu remembered that the young master seemed to have mentioned the night before that if anyone from the government office came to visit, he should just bring them to find him.

After a moment's hesitation, he spoke nervously, "My lords, the young master is practicing martial arts in the back garden. I will take you there right away."

As he spoke, he walked a few steps to the five yamen runners and led them straight to the back garden.

Soon the group arrived at the back garden.

In the open space in front of the pavilion.

Wang Yi danced with the spear with a nimble figure. There were continuous shadows of spear around him and the sound of breaking wind. His every move was powerful and imposing.

"What a nimble skill! I didn't expect that the owner of Limin Commercial Bank is actually a martial artist with considerable strength..." The leading bailiff was surprised, and the four people behind him were also surprised.

"The governor invites you, Mr. Wang, please come with us." The leading yamen runner clasped his fists and said loudly.

Wang Yi put away his spear and stood still. He threw the spear casually, and the spear flew across the sky and was firmly inserted back into the weapon rack next to the pavilion. He turned around, bowed, and smiled:

"According to the time, the foreigners should indeed take some action. Please lead the way. I will take this opportunity to discuss something with the admiral."

The leading bailiff's eyes flashed with surprise. The young man in front of him looked too calm. Was he relying on something?

"You're welcome, Young Master Wang." The leading bailiff gestured with his hand, and his attitude subconsciously became much more polite.

"Afu, take care of the house. I'll be back soon." Wang Yi gave the order and walked out of the house, with five yamen runners following closely behind him.

Ah Fu watched the group of people go away, worry flashed in his eyes. After hesitating for a long time, he gritted his teeth and rushed out of the house, running towards Yuelai Inn.

……

Western restaurant.

The admiral in black embroidered uniform, General Wiggins in red uniform, and Mr. Jishan in a neat grey suit sat around a clean white western-style dining table, talking quietly in English. Mr. Jishan had a solemn face and a very stiff tone: "Admiral, my merchant ship is stuck in the port and can't leave. You must solve the port problem as soon as possible. This is not just my request, but the request of ship merchants from many countries."

I worked so hard just to resolve this matter as soon as possible. Otherwise, the longer it dragged on, the easier it would be for the piglet transportation matter to be exposed.

Although he looked down on the Qing government, when it came to bottom line issues, it would still cause him considerable trouble.

General Wigens' eyes were stern, and he spoke slowly: "The normal work and rest of my soldiers has been affected. This is something I don't want to see. This matter must be resolved as soon as possible."

The admiral forced a smile and said, "Don't worry, I have sent someone to invite the owner of Limin Trading Company. The matter of the port will have a conclusion today."

At this moment, a yamen runner led Wang Yi to the dining table and reported, "Sir, the person has been brought here."

"Go away." The admiral waved his hand and looked at the young man at the table with a surprised look on his face. The other party's youth was far beyond his expectations.

The bailiff clasped his hands, bowed silently and stepped aside.

"My name is Wang Yi, nice to meet you, His Excellency the Admiral." Wang Yi bowed with a gentle smile.

The admiral's face turned serious, and he asked bluntly: "Do you admit your guilt?"

"What crime have I committed? Your words make me panic, and I really don't know what crime I have committed." Wang Yi pretended to be confused.

"Disrupting the order at the docks, causing congestion at the port and making it difficult for the port to operate normally, and preventing a large number of ships from docking and leaving normally, do you agree to this?"

Wang Yi looked aggrieved: "I also had good intentions. If there is anything I did wrong, please speak up, Admiral. There is no need to accuse me of so many crimes right away."

The admiral frowned slightly and said unhappily, "Don't pretend to be wronged in front of me. Isn't your purpose of disrupting the order of the port to help Huang Feihong?"

Shortly after the incident at the port, he sent people to investigate the boy in detail. Apart from his origins, he already knew everything that needed to be known.

If he didn't know that he was spending real money to recruit workers and was really intending to do something good for the people, why would he speak to him so politely?
Wang Yi raised his eyebrows, and stopped pretending. He pulled out a chair and sat down, saying seriously, "I know that the Admiral has his own difficulties, but if there is no result for the harm to the people, similar things will continue to happen."

"My request is very simple. I don't ask the foreigners to apologize, but I ask them to control their soldiers and avoid accidentally hurting civilians again."

He glanced at Jishan and said calmly, "Otherwise, if similar strikes can happen once, they can happen twice, or even more times. There will be checks and balances between them, and the order of the port can be better maintained. Don't you think so, Mr. Jishan?"

If he remembered correctly, this guy knew Chinese, and his purpose of coming to Foshan was to carry out the Kingsoft scam... This person had already sought death, and if there was a chance in the future, he would naturally make this guy pay the price for it and earn some origin points by the way.

Jishan's eyes turned cold and he didn't respond.

The admiral's eyes wandered over Wang Yi and Jishan, a thoughtful look flashed in his eyes, he looked at General Wigens, repeated what he had just said in English, and started a more detailed discussion.

After some discussion, the two made concessions to each other and roughly settled the matter.

Wang Yi listened to the discussion between the two and felt relieved. According to his own investigation and understanding from many aspects, the former governor was an official with a bottom line, so he dared to come and discuss these things with him.

Otherwise, given his personality, even if he had a plan, he would hide behind the scenes and manipulate it, and would never take the risk himself.

General Wigens stood up and nodded to the admiral: "Okay, a stable port order is good for everyone. Mr. Jishan, let's go." Then he walked away.

Jishan stood up with a bad look on his face, snorted, and followed.

The subordinates of the two men followed them out of the western restaurant in silence.
