The old parchment is covered with charcoal-based maps that look vague, and the overall content is a number of plausible iconic objects and a slightly mysterious, unclear poem attached to it.

Donald held the sliced apple in his hand and bit into it, his eyes sweeping back and forth on the map.

Beside him, Anthony, Stephanie and the others were dealing with the documents at hand, most of which were related to this plan, such as the transformation of the Alien Bazaar, the proposal to establish a garrison in Renas City, and the intelligence gathering of underground forces......

Recently, the study of the Talos family has become a public office, which is Donald's request, because this will be a plan for the linkage of various departments, and individual planning is prone to mistakes, so it is better to gather together, and if there are any problems, they will be raised on the spot and solved on the spot.

"It's a parchment scroll that I got from some antique shop and asked the most famous cartographer in Renas to draw it...... The content is as good as possible to convey the message we want to convey, and several copies of the same scroll have been made, so you can pick and choose again. ”

Huxley successively took out three scrolls from the box and spread them out on the table, the workmanship and content were similar, mainly just in case, so additional copies were made.

"It still needs a little bit of processing. ”

Stretching out his index finger and picking it lightly, there was a breeze that blew the three scrolls up, and when the people next to him put down their work at hand and looked at it, various elemental energies flashed around the scrolls one after another in mid-air, which lasted for about five minutes before Donald used his talent to extract all the energy.

At this time, compared with the previous scroll, not only there were wrinkles but also imperceptible paper breakage, which added a sense of vicissitudes.

The so-called traces of time are nothing more than the erosion and alteration of objects caused by various elements.

After some comparison, Donald reached out and picked up the map in the middle, and without saying a word, he used brute force to tear it into six pieces with uneven edges, and then found one of the maps that didn't involve too much important information and burned it directly.

After all these years, the map certainly has to be damaged and "lost".

"Scatter these fragments where they belong, two will be left out, two will be in the hands of the underground forces of Reynas, and one will be ...... Put it in a place where everyone can find it, let them fight, grab it, otherwise it's not challenging, you have to see a little blood, it's interesting to fight the fire, if everyone is harmonious, it's a little boring. ”

Putting the fragments into the box and handing them to Huxley, Donald turned around and walked to a notice board next to him, at this time there were more than a dozen people's portrait photos pasted on it, and there were interconnected clues in the middle, curled his finger and tapped it, and the crisp sound attracted everyone's attention to this side, Donald continued,

"What we have to do is to control the general direction of things, some of the details are left to their own development, I don't want this plan to become a precision instrument like a mechanical clock, with our current strength, we can't control so many forces, not to mention that we are not completely involved in the characters, the more we do, the easier it is to make mistakes, in fact, we just need to understand that there are those things that we must do. ”

"I agree with Mr. Mayor that instead of spreading out the forces at hand, it is better to concentrate them on a few joints to ensure that the project runs smoothly. ”

Anthony doesn't like to call Sewvett Talos very much, and often uses Mr. Mayor instead.

"Seconded. ”

"Seconded. ”

......

Knock knock~

The discussion in the study was about to continue, but a sudden knock on the door caused Donald to stop talking and look at Huxley, who immediately put down the box, opened the door and went out, without letting anyone outside see what was going on in the study.

After waiting for about 2 minutes, Huxley returned to the study with a somewhat solemn expression.

"What's the accident?"

Noticing this, Donald asked.

"Yes, there's something going on over there in the Howling Forest. ”

Huxley glanced at Victor next to him, and said no more, the latter pushed the glasses on the bridge of his nose with some embarrassment, his current position in Donald's team was undoubtedly the outermost.

"It's all my own people here, there's nothing to hide...... Private station?"

Donald didn't mean to embarrass Victor, and took the initiative to mention it before continuing.

When there was a problem with the Howling Forest, the first thing that came to his mind was the private station currently under construction, which was a key part of his plan to revitalize Rainas, so his face was also gloomy.

"The construction of the station is going well, but the problem is inside the Howling Forest, and our patrol in the forest has found that there are exploration teams from other mining companies entering the forest, and there are quite a few of them, and they are deliberately loitering around the mineral resource points we have discovered, and I am afraid that it is not good. ”

"Huh?"

Hearing Huxley's report, Donald's face improved a little, but his nasal voice was still a little heavy when he asked.

Having received a stake in Steve Minerals, Donald had ordered the company's three teams to immediately go to the resource point in the Howling Forest to begin preliminary preparations.

This matter can't be hidden from the outside world, after all, it is a mining operation of hundreds of people, and it is impossible to block the news, Donald is also prepared for this, on the one hand, Count Odelrich's side has long been opened by him through some gifts and the name of the Tarros family, and the imperial government has also conveyed his demands to the Taros family in the name of Sewit Tarros, and it should not be long before there will be a reply.

Donald never thought that someone would dare to hit the mineral resources he had planned long ago at this time, and it was also a resource point in the Howling Forest.

"Do you know whose team it is?"

No matter how bad the reputation of Sewett Talos is, it is still a deterrent enough.

"I already have a rough goal, I don't know if your stone Buddha puppet remembers the auction at the Audrich dinner before. ”

"Auction...... The East German mining tycoon who fought with me for a stake in Steve Minerals? No way, that is a capitalist, he doesn't dare to oppose me...... Tsk, it seems that Viscount Francis is very unhappy that he has lost the favor of two beautiful ladies!"

After a moment's thought, Donald understood what Huxley meant, squinted his eyes and put a piece of apple in his mouth, crunching into it.

The capitalist has money in his hands, a mining team, but no help at the government level, and is very different from Donald, the mayor of Renas, in terms of status, and what he dares to do, apparently, is to find someone who can at least nominally go up to Sewitt Talos wants to contend with.

There is no doubt that Viscount Francis, who completely lost Steve's mother and daughter because he failed to control the mining company, is the best candidate.

"Master, because the Weeping Forest is an uncontrolled area, we can enter, and people from other forces can also enter, and we may not be able to expel them. ”

The so-called unregulated area, as the name suggests, is an area without any direct government agencies, because the Howling Forest is a no-man's land, and there are a lot of fierce beasts inside, the local government doesn't care about it at all, otherwise Donald can't exploit the resources in it so easily.

Because of this, if Donald can go in to mine, people from other forces can naturally do it, and even if the other party is clear that they are here to find trouble, as long as they don't do it first, then there is no reason for Donald's side to drive them away.

After all, Donald is the mayor of Renas City, not the magistrate of East Germany, and he has no authority to control where others go.

If the mining tycoon had discovered other resource points in the interior of the Howling Forest and occupied them in advance, Donald would not have been able to take them back openly, because he would not have been able to tell others that the Wailing Forest was his territory and that everything in it was his...... Even if it's an established fact.

"I'm not going to trouble them, but I'm the ones they think are bullies, these people have to be cleaned up, and if they find more things, it's really troublesome...... Has the road from the private train station to the mineral resource point inside the Howling Forest been cleared?"

"Not yet, logging and road clearing will require a lot of manpower, and construction is currently underway in the city of Renas, so it may take a while longer. ”

Although he didn't quite understand why Donald suddenly asked about this topic, which sounded unrelated to what he had just said, Huxley replied carefully.

"It's just right, tomorrow we will gather the three miners over there, and the government will also call a few people to prepare a sacrifice ceremony...... I mean those ordinary rituals, I used to hear that there are forest guardians in the Howling Forest, so the name of this ritual is to curry favor with the forest guardians, after all, if we want to exploit the resources in the forest in the future, we always have to say hello to others, as for those who don't understand the rules or are occasionally not pious enough, it is difficult to say what will happen to those who do not understand the rules or are occasionally not pious enough. ”

Just because Sewit Talos can't do it doesn't mean that he, the master of the Howling Forest, can't do it.

That's his territory, and no one wants to touch it!
