Chapter 492 - The Vineyard Madness (part-1) (1/2)

Ryuu sat on his seat going through a file containing doc.u.ments, doc.u.ments that dealt with the contract with a certain winery, while Yamamoto sat beside him smoking his pipe providing legal advis.e.m.e.nt every now and then while Yu Wu sat on the other side fidgeting.

”Is something wrong sister Yu Wu?”

It seemed as if Ryuu's words seemed to have jolted her awake from her deep thought as she spoke hurriedly, ”Nothing is wrong boss, just a bit worried.”

Ryuu sighed as he spoke, ”I am not taking to fight a Celestial so why are you so worried, I will deal with whoever that person is, but I need you deal with the new head of the vineyard so that we can come to a solution that is beneficial to Shangri-la.”

”I see boss, but what about the vineyard they also suffered a great loss they might demand compensation.”

”Sister Yu Wu, if the damage had been done by our people deliberately we would have entertained the idea, however the happenstance of the situation is different upon saying that if we are able to receive replacement of our shipments intact may be something can be done for them.”

”Is that not a bit harsh?”

A mysterious smile blossomed on Ryuu's face, a smile that meant that he was privy to some hidden secret that only he knew as he spoke, ”Please sister Yu Wu no matter what we cannot show favoritism to any particular contractor no matter the reason, in fact if I am not wrong according to the contract they had to supply us with our goods in lieu of payment which they had failed spectacularly and as such they should be black listed yet we are giving them a whole mile by going to visit them when they should be the one visiting us as a common courtesy.”

Yu Wu simply gave a nod while Ryuu once again paid his attention towards the doc.u.ment in his hands when a few minutes later one of his guards came to inform them of their arrival at their destination.

Ryuu stood up with a sigh as he spoke in a bored tone, ”Well let get this over with.”

As Ryuu stepped out of his flying vessel he was assaulted by the sight, sound and smell of the vineyard, which he stopped to appreciate for a moment before he spoke so low that only Yamamoto was able to discern what he had said.

”So, a fierce battle between bandits led by a Celestial took place against our soldiers led by a mid level Immortal Mystic Emperor, the damage is so interesting is it not?”

”As you say my Prince the amount of damage to the vineyard is really interesting.”

As Ryuu turned he noticed that Yu Wu was looking around with a suspicious look in her eyes, which made Ryuu smile a little.

”Sister Yu Wu since you have been here before why don't you lead the way.”

Yu Wu nodded as she quick escorted to the office of the owner of the vineyard, where they were promptly escorted to occupy their respective seats, but it had been almost an hour since then and Yu Wu was fidgeting on her seat again seeing Ryuu had a blank look on his face, but he was releasing a subtle amount of killing intent while his eyes shone with murderous intent.

'Oh Heavens he is very angry, if that new owner did not appear within a few minutes he might kill him.'

And her thought was right on the mark as Ryuu ground his teeth his anger as his thoughts took a murderous turn.

'How dare he, how dare the lowly worm make me wait, I will make him pay.'

His thoughts were cut off as Yamamoto whispered to him, ”My Prince please control your anger, for now we will teach them a lesson for their insolence but for now I once again implore you to please control your anger.”

Ryuu took a deep breath as he pushed back his anger before he whispered back to Yamamoto, ”Thank.”

Yamamoto simply gave a small nod while Ryuu sat there with his eyes closed meditating, and it would be another half an hour later that the owner would waltz in and without acknowledging them he would take his seat.

Ryuu's eyes twitched at the blatant disrespect he was receiving from the person in front of him, 'That does it I will kill him without even letting him say a few words, there is a limit to tardiness.'

With a small smile on his face, the portly man began to speak, ”I am sorry our esteemed guest this are trying times for my family and I, not only older brother but even his entire lineage has died with him.”

A sympathetic smile appeared on Ryuu's face as he spoke, ”My condolence to you and your family.”

Then man sighed as he spoke again, ”Thank you, oh I am extremely sorry I forgot to introduce myself my name is Li Senhuan, the current patriarch of the Li family.”

”My name is Ryuu the current General Manager of the Kuvosie branch of Shangri-la.”

The man bowed a little bit as he spoke, ”Once again I would apologize to you for making you arrive here as well as wait for me, it has been some trying times I hope you are not offended too much.”

Ryuu gave him a smile as he spoke, ”Of course not Daoist brother, losing one's family is the worst thing that can happen to anyone.”
