Genshin Impact: Funina's Official Pastry Chef
Chapter 247 "Grinding Bones and Scattering Ashes"
The next morning, in Chang Ming's office, a burly man in a black cloak was sitting in front of Chang Ming with his legs crossed.
He first looked around the office environment and couldn't help but sigh:
"Tsk, tsk, tsk... What on earth could have caused you to throw away all that waste paper that had been piled up for who knows how many years? What happened?"
Hearing this, Chang Ming raised his eyes slightly and looked at the burly man who was teasing him in front of him, and sighed helplessly.
"If the guards at Melo Petersburg saw the mess in your office, Duke...what would they think?"
"If it weren't for recruiting staff, I wouldn't bother to clean up here."
As Chang Ming spoke, he pushed a cup of black tea in front of Leosli, then asked:
"Why did you think of me today? Didn't the Noklan family file an appeal?"
Hearing this, Leosli chuckled and shook his head, picked up the teacup in front of him, took a sip and continued:
"They did make quite a scene the first day they went in, but it was no use."
"According to the way the troublemakers live, they can't even afford the lowest-level concession meals. Under the pressure of life... they naturally give up making trouble."
"Of course, I came here to tell you something."
As Leosley spoke, he put the teacup in his hand aside, and his expression changed from his previous nonchalant and relaxed state to a serious one.
"Those people you asked me to keep an eye on earlier... have already taken action."
"Although other nobles have the idea of getting involved in opera culture,...the idea of the Noklan family is undoubtedly the most obvious."
"Last night, their acting head of the family went to see a playwright who specializes in writing scripts for nobles. They seemed to be discussing something."
Having said that, Leosli placed a file bag on Chang Ming's desk and said with a stern look in his eyes:
"This playwright is called Nelson. According to the information collected by my people... this person has a deep conflict with Claude."
"And now... Claude made a fortune from the opera a few days ago, so these guys who can only rehash old stories and write accounts have no business at all."
"I wonder... maybe they are planning to attack Claude."
"Of course, this is not without basis. According to the information I found... a large amount of expenses suddenly appeared in the Noklan family's account, and the account to which the money went was Nelson's account."
"The amount of funds far exceeds what is needed to customize ten scripts, Mora. I have a feeling... they are planning something."
Having said that, Leosli stopped talking. He raised his head slightly and looked at Chang Ming, who was also thinking, with deep eyes, as if he was waiting for his conclusion.
Chang Ming was silent for a while before speaking:
"Continue to keep an eye on the Noklan family, and assign some people to keep an eye on the playwright. If the playwright makes any unusual moves..."
"Then let them be reduced to ashes."
Before Chang Ming could finish his words, Leosli chuckled and said something extremely terrifying, then he grabbed his cloak hanging on the back of the chair and said:
"I'll let my men do it, don't worry."
After saying that, he patted the dust off his shoulders and left Chang Ming's office without looking back.
For Leosli...there are two fundamental reasons why he is willing to help Chang Ming do so many things that he himself is not convenient to do.
First, he was repaying a favor.
Chang Ming and Navilette saved him and gave him corresponding status and recognition. In a sense...it can be considered a favor.
The second is conflict of interest.
As the controller of Melo Petersburg, the manager of the dark side of Fontaine, and a major taxpayer in Fontaine, Leosli is extremely sensitive to business developments.
——Otherwise he wouldn’t have been able to get the title of “Duke”.
When he was helping Mo Mang Palace, he could gain some benefits and property through this process.
Take the last time we dealt with the Noklan family as an example. As the middleman, Leosli also gained a lot of benefits from it.
For example...the shops that the Noklan family disposed of were basically bought by him at the first opportunity.
Chang Ming was also aware of this matter, but he did not have any particular objection.
After all, for him...this is truly a matter of transferring money from one hand to the other.
Rather than letting outsiders get this part of the benefits, it is better to let Leosli take it directly and kill two birds with one stone.
In this way, Mo Mang Palace wins once, and Leosli, as the executor, can win once, which is a win-win situation.
As for Chang Ming...
Not only can he get dividends from Melo Petersburg, but he can also completely clean up things that are not in his favor.
Isn't winning twice a win-win in another sense?
......
After Leosli left, Chang Ming fell into deep thought again.
He stood up slowly and walked to the office window as usual. While looking at the street scene outside the window, he thought about these actions that seemed a little unusual to him.
"If they really want to make a comeback with the help of the cultural market...why don't they choose to invest in Claude, but choose one of his arch-enemies?"
"This behavior goes against the logic of business operations... What on earth do they want to do?"
"Do you really think that a noble like you can play against the Mo Mang Palace? They can't be that stupid, right?"
"Or... they really do want to play against me, but the key to the problem is not here, but within themselves?"
"The game is just a superficial one. Do they have deeper ideas? Is Nelson, who was pushed out, just a scapegoat?"
Chang Ming frowned slightly, and a deep look flashed in his sea-blue eyes, as if he was a little confused about the current situation.
and many more?
Selling off their ancestral home and a large number of properties, they are trying to reduce their traces in Fontaine as much as possible, and then they find an actor to stand on the stage and perform...
"You want to use this incident to attract my attention, and then use it to plan a larger asset transfer?"
"Or... this is not just a large-scale asset transfer, but a deathrattle released by a dying elite monster before it died?"
"They don't want everything I do to go smoothly, nor do they want me to reach a higher level in the hearts of the people of Fontaine so smoothly..."
The corners of Chang Ming's mouth rose slightly, and a stern look flashed in his sea-blue eyes.
"Something you don't want to see..."
"I want to make it happen completely."
"Understand that the Fontaine now belongs to the people of Fontaine, not the old Fontaine that once allowed you idiots to call the shots."
"Since I gave you the face, you don't plan to..."
"Then don't blame me for being rude."
