Chapter 512: The Banquet Is in Progress

After reaching a preliminary cooperation negotiation, Yang Hui, Ge Pu and Lei Bier did not continue to stay in the lounge, but Yang Hui took the two of them to walk around the manor.

"It's worthy of the Bist family." Lei Bier sighed. Although he was a federal lieutenant general and was considered a rich man, it depends on who he compared himself with. When he compared himself with the Bist family, he found that poverty limited his imagination.

"If General Lei Bier likes it, I have a private island near Hawaii. Give it to you?"

"No merit, no reward." Lei Bier dared not accept it. Although the cooperation was reached, Yang Hui, who did not get up early without profit, gave you something for free, which was hot.

"Are you sure you don't want it?" Yang Hui asked with a smile.

"..." Lei Bier was silent. He was thinking about Yang Hui's intention. Why did he act like he wanted to accept the island?

"Since Lei Bier doesn't want it, I will accept it shamelessly." Ge Pu smiled slightly and shamelessly replaced Lei Bier to accept Yang Hui's gift.

"Huh?" Lei Bier was stunned. How dare Ge Pu, an old fox, easily accept this hot potato? Aren't you afraid of leaving some handles and being caught by Yang Hui?

But soon, a line flashed through Rebir's mind, and he understood Yang Hui's intention, and then stopped Ge Pu: "It's hard to refuse such a kind offer, so I'll accept it reluctantly."

"Wow." Ge Pu smiled. Rebir's ability in this area is indeed not as good as his, but it won't be much worse. Moreover, even if he didn't remind him of Yang Hui's intention, Rebir could quickly see Yang Hui's intention from another direction.

"General Rebir, you are putting me on the fire by doing this." Yang Hui complained pretending to be unhappy, "You refused at first, and General Ge Pu accepted it again. This private island is no longer yours."

"Then I don't care, you said you would give it to me." Rebir showed his old rogue nature and made a fuss.

"Alas." Yang Hui covered his face and sighed, then said, "I have another ranch in Western Europe, General Rebil, what do you think?"

"No problem."

"Then I'll give it to you two for retirement."

"Hahaha." X2

The two smiled happily, not to mention the deeper intentions, these two places are indeed good places for retirement, and Yang Hui is also expressing his confidence and blessings to them, because there is only one situation for them to retire, that is, defeat Zeon and end the war.

"General Gepu, General Rebil."

At this time, a group of four or five people came, all wearing the uniforms of the Federation Army.

"Huh? Why are you here too?" Seeing that the people coming were Jin Corini and his subordinates, the smile on Rebil's face was restrained a lot. Jin Corini was the chief of staff of the space army and could not threaten Rebil's position, but he was the leader of the conservatives, and the leader of the reformists, Rebil, had always had a bad relationship with him.

"It is reasonable to attend the birthday party of the head of the Bist family." Jin Corini replied without changing his face.

"Aren't you going back to space?"

"No rush for now. The Zeon delegation is about to arrive, and the peace talks are about to begin. I have to attend the meeting."

"Peace talks? Haha..."

"General Rebil, General Corini." Yang Hui interrupted at an inopportune time to stop the two from fighting. "If you two want to discuss internal affairs, I am happy to provide you with a quiet place, but now... don't forget that I, a civilian, am still here."

"Well..." Rebil kept his mouth shut and didn't say anything. Yang Hui's cooperation with the federal army is better described as cooperation with the reformists. As the leader of the conservatives, Jin Corini naturally cannot let him know some things now, and...

"Mr. Hui Bist, as a member of the Bist family, the word civilian is probably not appropriate, right?" Jin Corini said with a smile.

This sentence is sarcastic, but Yang Hui knows that this is Jin Corini reminding him to remember his identity. Jin Corini is not only the leader of the conservatives in the army, but also an important member of the federal aristocracy.

"Excuse me, General Corini. In my opinion, the so-called civilians are not only titles and names, but also a manifestation of responsibilities and functions. I am a civilian without any official position." Yang Hui knew that Jin Corini was really hinting at Yang Hui that since they were both from aristocratic families, Yang Hui should be closer to him, who was from the aristocratic faction. However, Yang Hui was not fooled, and he looked down on both the conservatives and the aristocrats.

"Well, it's a very insightful speech. So, Mr. Hui Bister, are you interested in joining the federal army? The federal army is short of talents now, and young people like you are needed to join."

"Please forgive me for rejecting your kind invitation, General Corini." Yang Hui directly rejected Jin Corini's recruitment. "I'm sure you have heard about my reputation outside. If someone like me joins the federal army, not only will I not be able to help, but I will also discredit the federal army."

"Really?" Jin Corini opened his slightly closed eyes and stared at Yang Hui. After two or three seconds, he returned to his previous state, saluted Ge Pu and Rebir, and went to the main banquet hall.

Leibill looked at Kim Collini's back as he left, and the displeasure that flashed across his face before he left, and smiled without disguising it.

Seeing Kim Collini recruiting Yang Hui in front of them, he was not worried at all, but was actually laughing.

He and Ge Pu could only cooperate with this little bastard on an equal footing, and you wanted to recruit him as your subordinate right from the start? Such a small temple, aren't you afraid of it being broken?

However, Rebil still appreciated Yang Hui's concept of "commoners". The so-called noble status was shit. The military power would soon fall into his hands. If it weren't for the war with Zeon, Rebil would probably have ordered his troops to sweep away these worm-like nobles at the first opportunity!

However, praise is praise, but there are still concerns.

"You shouldn't reject him so directly." Ge Pu said gently. Although Jin Corini controlled his emotions, his men did not. When he left, the expression of wanting to eat Yang Hui alive was not concealed at all, and it was directly on his face.

"General Corini will not embarrass me. In his eyes, I am just a tiny ant." Yang Hui said without any worry.

"But his men don't think so."

"Those people can't do anything."

"Well, Corini came to the banquet today, you are just an opportunity, what he wants is the Bist family."

"So he is destined to be disappointed."

People are greedy, Jin Corini wants to take advantage of Yang Hui's opportunity to get the support of the Bist family, but he doesn't know that the Bist family has already reached a cooperation with the reformists. The company managed by Cardeas directly connects with Ge Pu, and orders and so on will have nothing to do with Jin Corini.

Yang Hui cooperates with Ge Pu and Rebir in secret, and the content of the cooperation has no common interests with the conservatives.

So in the entire Bist family, the only one that Jin Corini can fight for is Martha Bist, who seduces men everywhere to realize her ambitions.

"It's better to be careful, some methods you dare not imagine." Rebir reminded, the open war is not so terrible in Rebir's eyes, the real terrible thing is the fight in secret, killing people without blood.

Yang Hui smiled and said nothing, dare not imagine? I am over a hundred years old and have lived three times. What kind of darkness have I not seen? I have done a lot.

But on the surface, I still said to Rebill fearfully: "The two generals must protect me."

"...Get lost!" Rebill rolled his eyes. Because of Yang Hui's mischief, Rebill's worries disappeared, and he secretly cursed himself for worrying about Yang Hui, a little fox, purely for nothing.

"Hohoho." Ge Pu was also not worried. At first, it was because of Yang Hui's age, but then he thought that Yang Hui was born in a big family like the Bist family. The education and experience he received since childhood were different from ordinary people, and he also built such a huge plan and made so many preparations.

Presumably, he did not directly reject Jin Collini because of his youth and frivolity without considering the consequences, but he considered the consequences and was fully confident to deal with it.

"General Ge Pu, General Rebill."

A few more federal soldiers came over, but this time they were the reformists led by John Gao Yun, who were Rebill's subordinates.

"Gao Yun, even you are here." Rebil smiled, it seems that his subordinates are not stupid.

"Yes, after all, it is the Bist family." John Gao Yun saw Yang Hui standing next to Ge Pu and Rebil, and smiled happily.

He also came to Cardeas' birthday party with the purpose of winning over Yang Hui and using this as an opportunity to wait for the support of the Bist family. He was just anxious because he was behind Jin Corini, but now seeing Yang Hui standing with Ge Pu and Rebil, his heart relaxed.

"Well." Rebil looked at the time and said to Yang Hui, "It's almost time, take us in."

"Okay, everyone please follow me."

...

Take Ge Pu, Rebil and others back to the main banquet hall. Under the gaze of everyone, Yang Hui took Ge Pu, Rebil and others to their seats, and then stepped aside. Cardeas went on stage to speak, thanked the guests for coming, and gave a blessing, and the banquet officially began.

Throughout the birthday banquet, Yang Hui stood quietly aside, drinking champagne alone, and no one talked to him.

Ge Pu, Lei Bier and others said everything they should say. Under the watchful eyes of the public, it was inconvenient for them to have too much contact with Yang Hui. The same was true for Jin Collini and others. They got the answer from Yang Hui, but the answer was not what they wanted. Now they were opponents, so they would not be too intimate.

Most of the other people who attended the banquet were nobles, wealthy businessmen, and high-ranking officials. Their target was Cardeas. Even if there were younger entourages, they disdained him because of the rumors about Yang Hui.

At this time, Martha Bister arrived late, holding a slightly fat young man.
