Power and Empire Chapter 796: Blood of Winter (5)
796 Blood of Winter (5)
Socutus Delan is standing in front of the window sill on the fourth floor at No. 64 Ruiliyang Street, wearing a dark black dress, which makes her more mysterious and seductive
The slender willow eyebrows, the dark and clear eyes, the straight nose bridge, the soft and plump cherry lips, the beautifully-lined, sleek and clean cheeks, and the battered pink face, are just the right collection in the same Zhang Qingdan’s beauty exudes an irresistible charming temperament;
The window is covered with drizzle, with a bit of deserted and indifferent, white rain fluttering in the wind, covering the surroundings of the old castle like mist,
This is a magnificent and large courtyard with a 2-meter gate fence made of white iron, and a huge flowerbed full of flowers extends from the delicately carved gate to the greenery.
Two rows of neatly trimmed short-footed evergreen trees are like upright sentinels. Even in the cold winter, they still look lush and vigorous and vigorous.
The drizzle is hazy, and the rustling hits the flowerbeds. As the line of sight extends, at the end of the green avenue, there is a quaint and chic, beautiful white castle with four red castles. The spire points to the light blue sky, and is connected to an outer wall made up of large pale white rocks covered with cyan vines.
When you see it, you will feel a quaint aura hitting your face. Hundreds of exquisitely carved flower window frames are distributed on the wall of the ancient castle according to the four layers, like a pair of beautiful eyes staring at it. You
This is one of the most famous buildings in Ruimier. An extremely ambiguous name "White Rose" is as old as this city and it makes people feel a touch of pity, because this is the name that is beautiful and passionate. The last home of the famous Princess Ruimir,
It’s here. In the back garden of the old castle, there is still an unmarked tomb. A handful of simple loess is buried in the miserable life of a peerless beauty. The person who buried her was in The consideration of the current situation only temporarily planted eight mangroves around the grave to imply something vaguely,
Later, the owner of the old castle quietly built a beautifully decorated white pavilion on the tomb to shelter the poor woman who had left her home from the wind and rain. {WW.3, go and read} After hundreds of years, the beautiful crowns of the eight mangrove trees at the time have been formed around the pavilion,
When the mangrove season comes, the leaves that are rolled up in the wind keep circling around, just like the red dancing skirt of a beautiful woman who keeps spinning,
Just like the autumn harvest in the Dorok Mountains, all Dorok women will use the collected red leaves, weave beautiful ornaments in long strips, and hang them on their red and fluttering long skirts. With its graceful figure, the red leaves transform into a beautiful dance of wind in the mountain breeze
Beautiful things can never withstand the ravages of war. The Falcon Army entered the three northern counties strongly, the iron hoofs of the East Court cavalry ransacked in the north, countless cities were burned, and millions of people were displaced. It has never been a military powerhouse. In the city of Ruimier, before the cruel war, anything that could not be taken away had no value at all. No matter how beautiful the building was under the flame, there was only one color, the color of scorched earth
Even this ancient castle with a minimum value of more than 300,000 gold coins was also sold to the business alliance by the former owner, the Bosdi family, for almost 50,000 gold coins due to the war. It was messy at the time. Yes, no one thought that Remier would overstep in peace,
Waiting for the sword of the war to flicker outside the city of Ruimier, the energies gradually grew, and the talent of Ruimier found out that the Falcon dynasty had no intention of attacking Ruimier at all. This is a bit strange and legendary. The beautiful and elegant castle has become the branch of the business alliance in Ruimier,
There are only two who got the most benefit this time. One is the thirteen deacon of the business alliance, Socutus Delan, who entered the business alliance with a large amount of money.
Under the secret order of the fat man to try his best to stabilize Remier, Socutus Delan took advantage of the opportunity of the nobles in the city to flee, and bought 30% of the noble homes in the city and a large number of them with very little money. Industry, firmly control the most valuable things in this city in your hands
The other person is the Marquis de Bocondi, the leader of the underground forces in the city. This is a veteran of the local forces. Although the Marquis de Bocondi is an upper-class nobleman, the Bocondi family has been early Has been inextricably linked with the local underground forces,
This time, due to the power imbalance caused by the large-scale escape of the upper-class nobles, the Marquis de Bocondi used various resources in his hands to gain a lot of benefits from the war. , Made a huge fortune. Although most of the industries they control are small and medium-sized industries, their quantitative advantages are enough to allow them to gain the upper hand in the control of Ruimier City.
Currently, one third of the economic lifeline in the city of Remi is in the hands of Socutus Delan, and another third is in the hands of the Marquis of Bocondi,
The remaining one-third of the composition is more complicated. There are deacons from the business alliance who later added in, and there are also investors who have seen the opportunity and want to make a big profit, and there are also some emerging businessmen’s investments.
This is a situation of chaos. When the new economic center was formed, the calm water was already surging. Whoever can control this new economic center can undoubtedly become the uncrowned king of the merchant world in northern mainland China.
"Miss, this is the list of people scheduled to be interviewed this morning!" A female assistant who also wears a black dress walked in through the door with a list in her hand,
"There are so many people!"
Socutus Delan was a little helpless to accept the list from the female assistant, thinking of having to face so many requests again, she couldn't help feeling a little upset, being eligible to be interviewed by herself and submitting proposals, the least was The person in charge of the business alliance in a certain area is the real elite of the business community and the driving force for the rapid development of the business alliance
"What's going on"
Socutus Delan looked at the name on it with moon-like eyes, fixed her gaze on one of the names, and her crescent-like eyebrows were slightly frowned.
"Pop" Socutus Delan threw the list in his hand heavily on the table, pointed to one of the names, and asked in a clear and unpleasant voice
"Before the deacon meeting, only twelve deacons and 72 regional leaders were received. What happened to this Marquis de Bocondi? I remember the joint name of the regional leader of the three northern counties that I asked him to be promoted last time. Didn’t the letter call back halfway? How could he still write his name in!"
The female assistant said helplessly, "Miss, I also know that this person is not qualified, but this person was jointly recommended by the two chief deacons, Kang Blacko and Asold. According to the rules of the business alliance, if you can get one With the recommendation of the chief deacon, you can skip over to submit suggestions. If there are two, you can sit in and listen to the content of the meeting. This time it is recommended by the two chief deacons, Conlersuo and Asold, at the same time, so he is qualified to propose and Attend the meeting!"
"Is it recommended by Kang Blacko and Asold?" When the female assistant heard the names of the two deacons, Socutus Delan snorted heavily.
"Yes, this testimonial was only sent yesterday! I have already submitted it with other documents!" The female assistant flipped through the mountains of documents on the desk with an innocent face, and quickly found one. A recommendation letter from two deacons is signed, and it really has such content on it
Socutus Delan's face darkened, and there was a vague feeling of lightning and thunder, "What do these two guys want? I have endured the last incident once, and they really treat me as a bully! "
"Yeah, miss, they were too much this time!" The female assistant said to the side. In fact, she is also pretty long, with a slender figure in a black veil skirt, although there is no such thing as Socutus Delan. People are shocked and inexplicably shocked, but they also give people a fresh and capable feeling, with a special flavor
In the business alliance, everyone knows that the thirteenth deacon is at odds with the two chief deacons, Kang Blackmailer in charge of the grain trade and Asolde in charge of the iron ore trade,
One of these two trades is related to the people's livelihood, and the other is related to the army, so they have always been strictly controlled. The original contradiction is not so acute.
But with the Falcon Dynasty fighting in the north, more than 100,000 troops have been in battle for a long time. The daily food consumed and the large amount of iron ore needed to forge weapons and arrow clusters are all passed through Socutus Dailan, from In the name of internal regulation and control of the business alliance, the businessmen are chasing profits, and if the benefits are doubled, they dare to violate the law, and if the benefits are doubled, they dare to risk beheading.
Selling goods such as grain and iron ore can get rich returns in any war-torn area. Now this road has been cut off by Socutus Delan, and it should have grown significantly. The price is strictly controlled because of this woman’s intervention
IndoMTL.com is responsible for the grain trade, Kang ransomware and the iron ore trade~IndoMTL.com~ Naturally, the thirteenth person with great power will be regarded as a thorn in the eye and a thorn in the flesh.
But the previous several trials ended in vain. They were sent to slander. The slanderer was thrown into the stinking ditch, and the assassination was arranged secretly. As a result, the assassin was killed in the residence the day before, which shocked. For most people with dissidents, there is no way for Socutus Delan in Vikia to download the phone meeting. This has become the consensus of the top business alliances, but this time the meeting in the North three counties is undoubtedly A once-in-a-lifetime opportunity
From this list, Socutus Delan smelled an unusual smell. This is a challenge among the deacons. If you back down, you will look down on other deacons watching the fire from the other side.
The dominance is in my own hands. I really don't have to be afraid of the little actions of these two guys. Unless they can shake your Majesty's trust in them, everything is in vain!
"Anajelin, just follow this list!" Socutus Delan said to the female assistant who was waiting for a reply behind him, and then dignifiedly picked up the list from the table and placed it gently behind him. On a stack of documents almost a foot high, "I will take your declaration of war!"
