Chapter Seventy-Seven: The Opponent Enters the Urn
The three heads of the family nodded, agreeing with Sun Guangzan's words. www.biquge.info Who doesn't know that kid is the first gentleman in the capital, and he has really done a lot of things in the past. This time he was even more bastard, and he actually wanted to rob the city lord of the imperial city. Now they are relieved, relieved that the emperor agreed to the Sun family to lend money to Sun Xiang, it turns out that there is such an episode.
Emperor Deke saw that everyone understood what had happened, and nodded with satisfaction. He has to be balanced and not be too partial to any one family, which can have serious consequences. It was not convenient for him to say at the time about the borrowing incident, but now he must explain it clearly.
Then Emperor Deco continued: "As you can see, the existence of this mysterious organization has endangered the safety of the empire, and these city lords are loyal to the organization and not to the empire. But because of their tight organization, we have too few clues. So I made the first plan called the Bottom of the Cauldron Draw. Then, he stopped and glanced at Sun Guangzan. This statement is the result of research by two people, and it is also Sun Xiang's request to protect him as much as possible.
Then the Emperor continued: "Our purpose is to let them show more flaws, so that we can find more clues. To cut off the Benny family is to cut off one of their hands, and for the sake of the fight for Astor City, they are bound to expose another backup, which gives us a clue. Therefore, we still need to continue to put pressure on the Quinn family in Astor City, so that they continue to have financial problems, so that they will have to ask for help from their superiors, and our opportunity has come. So, the second plan I made was ... ”
Subsequently, the emperor led the four ministers and began to seriously study the next plan.
****************************
The next day, news came from the four super families in the capital that the empire was preparing to add a state in the east, named Astor State, and the state capital was going to be located in Astor City.
There was an immediate sensation, and many people began to look at the map and discover that Astor City was originally part of Cox State, an ordinary city in the easternmost part of the empire. More people began to move around, and the creation of a new state capital meant new opportunities, some people began to study careers, some people began to study business, and more people began to prepare to try their luck there and try to change their fortunes.
According to the laws of the empire, the power of the state capital was great. It is not only responsible for the management of the city guards in the state, including the acceptance of the city guards, but also can enjoy the tax dividends of the cities under its jurisdiction, and the most important thing is that it has the right to set up a magic teleportation array, which can be connected with the imperial capital and other state capitals of the empire. In addition, the state capital can also set up colleges, of course, you have to pay for it yourself, and ordinary cities can't set up colleges even if they have money. If you are a big family in the state capital, then congratulations, you can go to the academy to dig talents and strengthen the strength of the family.
So the state capital means opportunity. Families that sit in the state capital or have power in the state capital will have a stronger future development than ordinary cities. According to statistics, more than half of the first-class families in the empire were originally big families in various state capitals, and later quickly developed into first-class families in the empire with the power of state capitals, and squeezed into the capital, and finally won the imperial title, and some even won the hereditary title. It is conceivable that the state capital was a springboard to the upper echelons of the empire.

In a somewhat gloomy study, the "Queen's Emissary" that Sun Ying had seen was standing in front of his desk with his head bowed at this time, sweat already soaking through his clothes. Behind the desk, a man whose face he couldn't read clearly was looking at the information in his hand.
The floor of the study was a mess, with fragments of broken water cups, tea stains, and scattered pieces of paper.
The man finally put down the information in his hand and asked slowly, "How sure do you estimate we are?" ”
Quinn's messenger replied quickly, "Seventy percent"
"Tell me your basis"
"Let's talk about the Zhang family and the Bai family first, they not only sold all the properties in the city, but also sold all the mansions in the city a few days ago. The families that had been attached to them were scattered, and only a few die-hard loyalists followed them to the western suburbs, but they also sold all their assets. It is said that the main reason is that the funding gap is too large. Therefore, these two are no longer qualified in this competition. Even if their property grows in the future, we already have Astor City, and there are many ways to restrict them from re-entering the city. With that, the Queen's messenger paused and looked at the mysterious man.
Seeing that the other party nodded in agreement, he continued: "I got the news yesterday that because Fabre King and John Mark have contributed to the city of Baleno, the empire has agreed to the Tuoba family and the Huyan family to jointly manage Baleno. Now they have announced that they will leave Astor City and plan to sell their entire assets in a month's time. So now the only one who is competing with us is the Hunter family, and our two families are now equal in strength and have reached a stalemate, so everyone's chances are five or five. But if we can take down most of the properties of the Tuoba family and the Huyan family, the chances will increase to seventy percent. If we can take down some of these two vassal families, our chances will be even greater. ”
"How much money do you expect to have?"
Quinn thought for a moment, gritted his teeth, and said, "Thirty million." ”
The man pondered for a long time before he said, "I just received information that Astor City is about to become the state capital. Originally, the exposure of the Benny family had already made us decide to evacuate Astor City. If it can't be connected to Baleno City, Astor City is meaningless, after all, the east is too poor. But the state capital is significant, because so far we have not mastered a city at the state capital level. Therefore, if you are 70% sure, you must fight to the end. Give you a chance to make meritorious contributions, and give you another 30 million, you go, remember, only success is allowed, and failure is not allowed. ”
"Yes, this time I will personally take charge and definitely take Astor City!"
**************************
In the study of the Blake family in the capital, the atmosphere was rather dreary, and Blake Waters and Blake Arashi were sitting there with their heads a little dejected. The elder Blake, who sat at the top, was visibly senile.
Arashi still couldn't believe it, and muttered, "How can this be?" ”
It all happened so fast that she and her brother were still preparing for the Astor City trial after her grandfather reminded her to win. She and her brother really didn't want to admit defeat like this, because they had planned several wonderful plans, but unfortunately they didn't need them.
Not only that, but the Benny family, who was originally attached to his family, turned out to be a member of a mysterious organization, and almost caused the family to fall into a place of no return. Not to mention the trials in Astor City now, the family was lucky to be able to get out of the Baleno City incident.
Old Black said with a strong spirit, "The matter of Baleno City has given us a good warning, and I have ordered to go down and conduct an inventory of our affiliated families, and I believe that the other three families will take the same measures." ”
Blake Shaw was disappointed by his performances at the Astor City trials and now he is putting all his hopes on Vought.
Arashi and Walter are siblings of the same mother, so they will also support Walter wholeheartedly, so he wants to take this opportunity to teach the two siblings more. "Don't take the matter of Baleno City to heart, I have already explained it clearly in front of His Majesty the Emperor. You should sum up the experience and lessons of this trial in Astor City, which will be beneficial to your growth. ”
Walter was still a little unconvinced, and argued: "If it weren't for the Sun family's violation first, how could Sun Xiang win easily." ”
"No, my child, that's what I thought. But after reading the two-step plan, I knew that the Sun family should not have participated, and Sun Xiang made it alone. If you insist on participating, it should also be the royal family's participation, and the Sun family must have no violation. Blake said earnestly.
"Grandpa, why do you say that?"
"I've been fighting with Old Man Sun all my life, and if I want to say that I know him best, I'm definitely the one. Let his grandson pretend to be a gentleman and hide his strength, what that sinister old man Sun can do. But let him deceive the royal family and break the rules of the trial, he will definitely not dare to do it. I've told you about the first step of the whole plan, the Benny family, and the second step of the plan, what is the most obvious question? Old Blake has completely cheered up, he decided to use today's opportunity to teach the two siblings a good lesson, he doesn't want his descendants to lose to the descendants of the Sun family forever.
After listening to Old Blake's inquiry, both siblings began to think seriously.
After talking so much in a row, old Blake was also tired, and he also had to give the two children time to think, so he stopped and drank his saliva. After all, Lan is older and has a relatively richer experience, so she reacted at the earliest. She asked with some uncertainty, "Grandpa, is it the Hunter family?" ”
