Realm of Power
Volume 2: Southern Beacon Fire Chapter 157: Dark Chess
"This time the royal family is really going too far!" Nelly Jones just came out of the hall and complained to the fat man about the royal family's misconduct with a worried look on her face. "Our Jones family has been very low-key. I didn't expect that the royal family would still leave no room for anything. From Kuji Our family is in dire straits due to the special invasion. The royal family has always been so aggressive. Fortunately, you are here this time, otherwise we really don’t know what to do."
"Haha, it's nothing. We are partners, so we should be in the same boat and share weal and woe!" The fat man became even more delighted when he saw that Jones Nellie complained so much about the royal family. However, this incident really surprised the fat man. Unexpectedly, The other party's black hands were able to mobilize people from the business alliance. It seemed that the stall was getting bigger and the people were mixed.
"I'm going to the Samor Kyoto branch. It is said that the Samor Governor's Palace has been built. I want to take a look. I wonder if you are interested in going together." The fat man turned around and asked. Jones Nelly was silent for a while, her eyes Youyuan glanced at the fat man and responded, "I'm afraid I can't go with you. My father asked me to go to the Zhivadin Business Alliance headquarters to complain about this illegal investigation. I will leave soon, and the carriage is already waiting outside."
"So fast? How long are you going to go this time?" The fat man was startled. It seemed that Duke Jones smelled something dangerous from this incident, so he sent Jones Nelly out of Kyoto so anxiously. See Old ginger is still spicy,
"I don't know, my father said it will take at least half a month." Nelly Jones lowered her head shyly. "My father also said that if we can get the support of the Business Alliance Headquarters this time, the Jones family will officially announce a cooperative relationship with you! And will Announcing our engagement"
"Damn it, you ****, you old liar," the fat man cursed in a low voice. He actually deceived Jones and Nelly into getting Zivadin in the name of officially announcing cooperation with him, and also made it impossible for him to stop her in the name of engagement. If he persuaded Jones Nelly, don't go, I'm afraid it will cause a bigger misunderstanding.
"Here you go, take this." The fat man was not at ease about Jones Nelly's trip to Zivadin, so he took off his thorn flower heraldic ring from his finger.
"After you leave Kyoto, you can take this ring to the town of Hasian and find the jewelry store owner Hafi in the town. That is my property. He will arrange for someone to accompany you to Rivadin. You are unfamiliar with the place and place, and having them help you handle things will save you a lot of worry.
"What is this?" Nelly Jones took the ring with surprised eyes and looked at it carefully. The more she looked at it, the more shocked she became. It was an ordinary-looking ring, with a hint of green on the thick bronze ring. With spots of patina, a simple and elegant blue thorn flower is engraved on the ring.
But the keen-eyed Jones Nelly could tell at a glance that this was a family heraldry ring that had been passed down for hundreds of years. Such a precious thing was also on her father's finger. Its long history could even be traced back more than a hundred years ago. The Snow Country Era.
What struck her most unbelievably was that on the ring of the bronze ring, you could still vaguely see the ring pattern of gold thread, which was an honor that could only be possessed by families with the rank of baron or above.
"Is this your family's heraldic ring?" Jones Nelly exclaimed in surprise. "Are you a noble with a title?" Jones Nelly always thought that the fat man was just a commoner, but she didn't expect that he was a high-ranking noble. This discovery made Jones Nelly's heart tremble. She didn't know how many secrets there were hidden behind that silly fat face.
Jones Nelly didn’t know the weight of this ring yet. Except for the top brass of the Samor Army and the Twelve Deacons of the Business Alliance, few people knew that this was the family heraldic ring passed down from generation to generation of the Falcon family.
In the past, the heraldic rings that Fatty gave to others for use in doing business were just imitations of this ring. For example, those who mobilized troops could not mobilize supplies, and those who mobilized supplies could not mobilize money. The scope was certain, and the powers were separated.
But this most important heraldic ring has never left Fatty's hand, because it is the most critical one in the Falcon family. Whoever holds it is equivalent to having the right to mobilize Samor's troops and property. Wearing it Its people have the right to wage war against the enemy. It is a veritable "ring of war"
"It's nothing." The fat man smiled mysteriously, "It's just a small, down-and-out family!" The fat man's smile revealed a trace of deep sadness unintentionally, which made Jones Nelly's heart feel hot. Women are always sentimental, especially towards others. A man who is both mysterious and profound.
The fat man and Jones Nelly reluctantly walked out of the mansion gate. The Duke's carriage was already waiting outside. "Well, don't be like this." Jones Nelly looked back at the fat man with a red face, and her voice was as low as a mosquito. It turned out that the fat man Not changing her lust, she took the opportunity to help Jones Nelly get into the car and secretly touched Jones Nelly's buttocks through her long skirt.
"Remember my words, go to Hasian Town to find the owner of the jewelry store. I have arranged everything." The fat man whispered in Jones Nelly's ear reluctantly. "Believe me, I will go there in person in half a month at the latest." Zhivadin picks you up!”
The carriage disappeared into the distance of the commercial road with a hint of hot summer smoke. The cicadas on the trees sang happily in the shade. Everything seemed so peaceful. The fat man withdrew his gaze and waved to the woods beside the dark road. With a wave of his hand, a dark carriage came out and stopped in front of the fat man. A guard behind the carriage opened the door
"Have you figured out which force this time is?" the fat man asked in a muffled voice, "Report to your lord!" Hulicchiko bowed respectfully and said, "After the two people came out just now, they were stopped by an unmarked carriage. Picked them up, our people have been following them, I believe there will be results soon! "
"Well, this matter must be clarified." The fat man nodded and stepped onto the carriage, whispering, "Go to Samor's Kyoto headquarters!"
The carriage turned onto the commercial road, and after traveling for a while, two equally dark carriages came out from the streets on both sides, one behind the other, with the fat man's carriage in the middle. This group of elite guards were dressed up to enter the capital with him.
Since Fatty started implementing the plan, captain Huli Chiko has been responsible for tracking and monitoring other collaborators. According to statistical intelligence, among the 137 large Kyoto families that cooperate with the Jones family, there are some that have close ties with the royal family. Of the sixteen companies, forty-six have ambiguous relations with the conservatives, and there are countless more that have formed complex and intertwined small groups due to their own interests.
But these are not important. What the fat man wants is this result, using the power of others to do his own thing, letting the Kyoto royal family and conservatives struggle in such a quagmire. Politics is always a competition of interests. In such a group power In front of the intertwined huge things,
Neither the Kyoto royal family nor the conservatives can anymore suppress this emerging force. As time goes by, this force will gradually push away the rock of the royal family like a sprout squeezed out of the rock.
The carriage stopped in front of the Samour branch. The fat man got out of the carriage and went upstairs, followed by two guards. At this time, the fat man heard a noise coming from the second floor. It seemed that someone was arguing upstairs. This was in the army. Strictness is rare in the Samor army.
"What's going on?" The fat man frowned slightly. "Is this the military headquarters or the vegetable market?"
"My dear, you're finally here!" A shy voice sounded from the top of the stairs, "Huh?" The fat man couldn't help but stop and look up, and saw a tall beauty with an enthusiastic face appearing at the top of the stairs. The fat man couldn't help but look... He was stunned for a moment, "Who is this woman? Have I seen her before?"
"Sir, please ignore her!" At this time, a branch clerk who happened to go upstairs quickly ran over and whispered in the fat man's ear.
"This woman is a madman. She is the daughter of Baron Sokutus. Because her family owes a lot of debt, she wants to sell Samor visas to offset the family debt. This woman has been making trouble here for three days. Every time she sees one, she comes to do it. Everyone who gets a visa will call her "honey". If Captain Lidakus hadn't seen her pitifully, he would have kicked her out long ago."
"Is there such a person?" The fat man glared at the tall beauty with a strange expression. Although she was not a peerless beauty, she did have a rare sassy temperament. There was a bit of malnutrition in the face, and she was originally tall. The bun looked messy and messy, and the haggard paleness was heartbreaking to see. To be able to push such a heroic beauty to such an extent shows how much pressure is placed on her.
The beautiful woman at the top of the stairs saw someone pointing her finger. Her expression, which was so passionate just now, was like a withered flower. She turned around with a gray face. Qu sat alone at the top of the stairs, waiting for the next hope.
The fat man looked at the sparse tall beauty, sitting alone and helpless on the cold floor on the second floor. He couldn't help but think of Jones Neely who mortgaged herself for money. Could it be that in this world, the daughters of down-and-out families all end up like this?
"I heard you want to apply for a visa?" The fat man came to the tall beauty. The tall beauty did not raise her head. "You really don't want a visa?" The fat man asked curiously again. Seeing the lifeless beauty like a puppet, the fat man could feel it. There is a feeling of sadness that is greater than the death of one's heart.
"Yes, I want to apply for a visa!" The tall beauty looked up, her face was horribly pale, and her eyes were bloodshot. "No matter who it is, whoever can give me a visa, I will marry him!"
"How many days have you not been home? You should go back and take a nap. It might be better!" The fat man couldn't help feeling palpitated when he looked at the beautiful woman's haggard face. This face was once so familiar. When he was in college, he even This is what it looks like when you stay in an Internet cafe for a few days and play games all night long.
"I dare not go back!" The fat man's words made the tall beauty no longer able to hold back the tears in her eyes. She cried, "After I leave this door, I will no longer be me. My father will be executed, and I will be killed by them." Sold to a brothel!"
"If I can help you apply for a certificate, what can you give me in return?" The fat man squatted down, staring at the tearful eyes of the tall beauty, and whispered, "There is no free lunch in this world. I don't lack women, and neither do I." I need you to marry me and do one thing for me, and I’ll give you a pass!”
"Are you telling the truth?" The tall beauty raised her head with tears in her eyes, her cheeks were slightly red with excitement, and she said decisively, "As long as you can help me apply for a certificate, I will do anything!"
"You have to think clearly," the fat man continued in a low voice. "If you agree, you may never see your family again in your life, and you will never return to Kyoto."
This made the tall beauty fall into silence. The fat man waved his hand to the guard behind him. Soon the guard held a pass with complete procedures but no name written on it. The fat man took it and placed it in front of the tall beauty. Real things are more effective than any fat man’s rhetoric.
"Have you thought clearly? You only have one chance!" The fat man asked. After hesitating for a while, the tall beauty's hand firmly grasped the pass on the ground. "I will do it, no matter what it is, as long as it can save me." Family, save my father, even if you want me to betray my honor and dedicate myself to darkness, I will do it."
"Very good, remember what you said today!" The fat man stood up and told the guards behind him, "Send someone to help her pay off her debts, send her to the Zhiwading headquarters tomorrow, and tell President Si Duhan that she was sent by me, and he will know what to do!"
