Darek Danny, who is just forty years old today, is known throughout Crewe for his family's Danny Chamber of Commerce.

No, it should be said that it is famous throughout the empire.

His family has been committed to the ore trade since a hundred years ago, and the business has even reached the main city of the three major orc tribes, and the ore needs of nearly the three cities in the Eastern Continent need to be supplied by his chamber of commerce.

Even the Reagan family's business in the orc clan needs to be handled by the Danny Chamber of Commerce.

The Dannies are not native to Crewe, their ancestors were nobles during the nomadic period, and their bloodline is in some ways nobler than that of the Reagan family.

However, during the War of Unification 300 years ago, his family initially sided with Locke the Great and Archduke Patweed, so much so that they were almost wiped out.

Later, when the Human Empire was founded, Emperor Locke rewarded the nobles with a piece of grassland north of what is now the town of Tyre to the Danny family.

One hundred years ago, the Danny family sold their territory and started doing business, which has continued to this day.

Over the course of a hundred years, the Danny family unknowingly integrated into the aristocratic social circle of Crewe, and entered the main hall of Kawar Fort to participate in political affairs.

...

After Pedi announced his dissolution and left the hall, Sir Derick was surrounded by a group of nobles.

Sir Dyric was clearly the leader of these nobles, and he did not appear to be arrogant in the presence of the nobles. He always maintained a reserved smile, and when faced with the topics of the nobles around him, he only nodded and did not speak.

When the group reached the castle gate outside the school grounds, a handsome war horse stopped just outside the gate, and an old man with white hair on the war horse was in good spirits, and two piercing eyes were staring at Sir Derrick.

Sir Derick also looked at the old man, and he interrupted the nobleman beside him and said, "You go first, and I will stay a little longer." ”

The voice was very small, and the small one could not even be heard clearly in the discussion of many nobles, but the topic discussed by the nobles came to an abrupt end. When the nobles saw Sir Bowenwright who had come down from his horse, they looked at each other and immediately silently quickened their pace.

Bowenwright wears the same standard leather armor as Sir Daric, but his leather armor is simple and functional, which makes him look like an old mercenary.

"Long time no see, my dear uncle. Sir Derick greeted Bowenwright warmly.

"The last thing I want is to see you here, Darek. Bowenwright frowned, "Isn't the new trade route in Balan Town enough to keep you busy?, you shouldn't be involved in this, it's more complicated than you think." ”

Sir Bowenright was a member of the Danny family, and he was supposed to be Sir Derrick's uncle by seniority, and it was for this reason that he could only stay alone in his manor for ten years.

"It's not complicated," said the two of them, quietly approaching a quiet corner of the schoolyard, and said Sir Derrick, "the young ruler of Kavalburg wants to rectify the commercial tax, and the nobles won't agree... What's so complicated about that?"

"Isn't that complicated enough?" Bowenwright stared at his nephew, "Business reform should be more beneficial to the Danny Chamber of Commerce, are you as short-sighted as those aristocrats?"

"Have you forgotten what the Danny family is in business with?" said Sir Derick, shrugging, "the tariff on the ore trade has risen by nearly two percent, and the transaction tax and the commercial tax are even more outrageous!"

"But the elimination of transit duties along the way is not a small amount of money. "Don't challenge Lord Pedy's patience, and don't treat him like a child, for you should understand what can happen to those who come down from the battlefield." ”

Sir Derick had fought in the attack and defense of the Kumar Fortress thirteen years earlier, and he was also considered dead.

"I learned a lot during the war ... I've heard about Master Pedi's performance on the battlefield. Ser Derick smiled, "Although Fort Kawar has lifted the tariff on land routes, this is limited to Crewe... No, it's only in the direct domain of the Reagan family!" he laughed, "but our family business is spread throughout the Empire. ”

Sir Bowenwright looked stunned, "What is your purpose?"

"Master Pedi is too cautious, God knows why this young adult is so cautious as an old man. "He has been so cautious that he has made no progress in the reform of the tax items in these months, and the same nobles have been too cautious... Or rather, they want to resist but lack the necessary courage. ”

"So, you added a fire?"

"I'm just letting what should have happened happen ahead of time. Derrick looked like he took it for granted, "Master Pedi should thank me. ”

"Little set on fire!" said the old knight in the same words as Edwin, "Lord Pedi is a wise ruler, don't you know why the police station will be established?"

"The moat has already been repaired around me, and no amount of fire can burn me. ”

"Then you beware of being drowned in the river. ”

Derick shook his head noncommittally, "You'd better take care of yourself first... Just now in the hall, Master Pedi issued a war letter to the Cade family. ”

"You provoked?"

"I didn't say a word. ”

Sir Bowenright looked at Darik earnestly, "I warned you a long time ago not to take others for fools, let alone play with your cleverness. With that, he ignored his nephew and walked as fast as he could.

...

In Pedy's private office at Castle Caval, the old mage Collier stood tremblingly at a desk, and he didn't even have the courage to look up and peek at Pedi now.

At the door, Sir Cyla simply stood waiting for orders.

Pei Di leaned back to the two of them on the large wooden chair next to his desk, his eyes staring directly at the giant bear flag on the wall.

He returned from the hall without saying a word.

"Is Don Wright here?" said Pedy's voice abruptly.

"It's right outside. Ser Cyrah replied as she stood in the doorway.

"Let him in... No, don't let him in, you go tell him... Tell him—" Pedi said with a rare hesitation, and then he fell silent again.

After a few seconds, Pedy's voice came again: "I don't want to see Gomez in front of my eyes again...", his voice was indifferent and made the nearest Collier's body tremble, and he stood up and straightened his chair as he said this, and he stared at Sir Cyrah and spit out four words from between his teeth: "The sooner the better!"

Sir Cyrah only felt her eyelids jump, goosebumps were raised all over her body at the murderous intent coming from her desk, and although she knew that Pedi was angry at this time, she still considered her duty and advised: "If you choose to do it at this time, the entire nobles of the Crewe Territory will know that you did it." ”

"I'm just making people think I did it!" Pedi suddenly yelled, "I want everyone to know that I killed Baron Gomez!"

Sir Sila felt a chill rise above her head, and Pedy's sharp, murderous gaze made her quickly bow her head and reply, "I see... Do you need to let Don Wright in?"

"No, you have full control over this matter. ”

"Your will!"

Ciara decisively exited the office and quickly closed the door.

The moment the door closed, Pedi sat back in his chair, looked at the old mage and asked, "Have you beaten a nobleman?"

"Disputes are inevitable, my lord. Collier lowered his head and said, "You used to be a sheriff in the imperial capital, so you should know the situation here. ”

"But the police department is different from the security department, you don't have a court and a whole bunch of bachelors to talk to you, and you don't have the upper class nobles to support you, you are just a small police chief. Pedy's tone was a little lonely, "In Crewe, the nobility and the freedmen have absolute rights, and the ancestors of these people are the heroes of the Reagan family, and these people are united even more influential than the Reagan family. ”

"So, these people shouldn't exist!" the old mage immediately answered, "In Crewe, your words are the supreme authority, and their existence is wrong. ”

"But the problem is, they've existed, and they've been around for more than two hundred years. ”

"What you need me to do, all you need is a command, my lord. The old mage suddenly had a bad premonition in his heart.

"Tuk Tuk"

Just then, a knock on the door interrupted the conversation between the two.

"Your Excellency!"

There were not many people who could knock on this door under the watchful eye of the knight of the guard, and Sir Bowenright was one of the few.

The old sir came in with a chubby attendant, the new Superintendent of the Inland Revenue, Sir Edwin Film, and when the two met in the hallway, Sir Edwin asked Sir Bowenwright to bring him in, to which the old man readily agreed.

"See those nobles?" asked Pedy, staring at Bowenley.

Sir Bowenright replied at once, "I saw it when I arrived at the gate of the castle, and I talked for a while with my nephew, Sir Derick." ”

"What were you talking about?" asked Pedi.

"Kavalburg's Tax Item Reform. ”

"What did Sir Derick say?"

"He's certainly there to support you in any decision you make. ”

"Haha!" Peddy laughed, "you've learned to lie, sir, too. He pointed to Sir Edwin and said, "He didn't have that attitude in the hall just now, Sir Edwin can testify." ”

"Sooner or later, he will support you, my lord. Sir Edwin was extremely respectful, "You don't have to worry about these people, most of the merchants in Crewe still support your tax reform, and the fools and fools are only a few." ”

"Put away your compliments, Sir Edwin. Pedi stood up and motioned for the three of them to sit down on the couch next to them and talk, "Your compliments will make me make the wrong decision, in my case you just need to tell the truth." ”

Sir Edwin said as he stepped back to the couch, "The truth is that the nobles will soon learn that they are holding on to the wrong. ”

Pei Di sat casually on the main seat, "Let's stop talking empty words, let's solve the current problem first." ”

"You mean Earl Bell Cade?" asked Sir Bowenwright, "and we only need one legion to bring down the Cade Territory." ”

"It would be nice if it were that simple. Pedi shook her head with a wry smile.

Sir Bowenwright asked, "Are you worried, then, about the attitude of the four Dominions?"

"That's a problem, isn't it?"

"I have a solution. Sir Edwin suddenly said: "Bell Cade's territory is very close to Fort Herien, why don't you give an order to Viscount Bane and ask him to send troops to levy Bell Cade." ”(https:)
