257 Plantagenet
"Knock Knock Knock ......"
When there is a knock on the door, the interval between sounds is generally the same, not a second longer, not a second shorter.
If the knock has an expression, the knock also represents politeness, and when you hear this sound, you can also feel the mentality of the knocker.
Polite and extremely respectful to the people in the house.
Lebon Randolph is the person in the house, a study, a study in a high-rise building.
Of course, the so-called high-rise building is not the kind of reinforced concrete building with dozens or hundreds of floors on the water blue star, this world, compared to the region, the number of people is actually small, there is no need to build high-rise buildings like the water blue star, anything is, if it is not necessary, the development will be relatively slow.
In the continent of Noah, in the French Empire, even a huge city with a population of one million like Reims City does not have buildings with more than ten floors, and the entire city, including the parliament building, and a few buildings such as the Church of the Holy Cross, has buildings or towers with more than ten floors.
The building where Lebang is located is only seven floors, and he is located on the top floor.
Seven-storey buildings, which are considered high-rise buildings in the northern district of Reims, are mostly office buildings where major trading companies or companies are located, and the headquarters of a large trading company often has many employees, and only six or seven storey buildings like this can be accommodated. The Albert Cleaning Company, which the Iris branch used for camouflage, is only three stories high.
Of course, Albert Cleaning has a huge underground palace, and if you count the underground buildings, it is not necessarily smaller than the area of these seven-story buildings.
Located on Fifth Street, not far from the Iris branch, just one street away, this building is also home to the offices of many large trading companies and companies, and its status in Reims City, some of which are like Central on Hong Kong Island on Aqua Blue, are lined with office buildings and companies of all sizes.
Hong Kong Island on Aqua Blue is dominated by finance and trade, and at one point, it was a huge cargo transshipment port, similar to the current Port of Reims.
The world is different, the rules are different, but there are always many similarities in the places where human beings live.
Joys and sorrows, nothing like that!
This building is the headquarters of the Plantagenet Trading Company, which has more than a dozen large sea vessels, dozens of small river boats, and dozens of fishing boats.
Plantagenet Trading Company has many shareholders, however, the largest shareholder is Leo Leslie.
This trading company is a rising star, the history is not long, but the history of decades, from scratch, small to large, by Leo Leslie personally laid the country, and the Leslie family has nothing to do with the entire trading company, and does not use the shares of the Leslie family, in this regard, Swan Castle side takes a tacit attitude.
It's actually a compensation.
At the beginning, Leo Leslie lost the battle for the head of the family, and the position of head of the family was won by Ron Leslie, and Leo had to leave Reims City and take another path.
This outcome is the norm in the internal strife of large families.
Under normal circumstances, the defeated heirs of the family can only stay away from the ruling inner circle of the family for a certain period of time, and over time, after the victor is really in power, these losers can be exempted and return to their birthplace.
Of course, there are exceptions.
Leo Leslie is a special case, he did not despair after being exiled to the imperial capital of Bahrain, but studied seriously at the imperial capital university, formed his own social circle, and then, after graduating from college, he joined the army, starting as a small second lieutenant, until finally becoming a general, becoming the commander of the Southern Army.
Among them, the family has made some efforts, without the background of the family, without this identity, he would not be able to climb so much, but all this is more due to himself.
Without ability, he can't go this far.
Wealthy Couples!
Although there is no such thing in this world, in fact, cultivators must inevitably need it, otherwise, there would not be so many transcendent people who invest in irises, or become the worship of major wealthy families, it is nothing more than because the resources for cultivation are difficult to find, and most of them are in the hands of those powerful forces.
Otherwise, it will be like Redbeard, and it will be difficult to go far in the cultivation process.
Although Leo Leslie has made a scene, but Ron Leslie is not bad, as the Grand Duke of Hellstein Castle, he firmly controls the Leslie family, so that Leo Leslie has no opportunity to take advantage of, in this case, Leo also gave up his ambitions, but found another way to find his own path.
I don't know if it's in the psychology of compensation, or the strategy of the family's cunning rabbit three holes, for Leo's self-development, even within the scope of Reims City, the Leslie family not only did not fight, but secretly supported, in this way, after decades of hard work, the Plantagenet Trading Company has become huge.
If there are no surprises, this happy situation will continue.
After a while, the Plantagenet Trading Company will grow stronger, with Reims as its foundation, Flange as a framework, and then, extend its tentacles to the New World, to the far east, where the world of honey and milk flows according to legend.
It's like a new branch from the huge tree of the Leslie family!
On the surface, Leo Leslie, who controlled Plantagenet, also resigned to his fate, which was also a setback in his political life in the imperial capital of Bahrain, and he was able to return to Reims City after failing to become a member of the Imperial Senate, and Ron Leslie also acquiesced to his existence and did not suppress his actions.
However, Ron's only son, Klein, was about to throw himself into the arms of his Heavenly Father due to an accident.
Klein Leslie is the heir of course, if he doesn't have an accident, but when he has an accident, it gives Leo Leslie a chance.
The entire Leslie family, he and Ron are the closest in blood, and if Klein dies, his son has a great chance of becoming the next Grand Duke of Schwanstein Castle.
So, he took action.
Because of his actions, Ryan Charles died, and Gu Chaoyang's spirit was able to travel through the three thousand universes with the golden book, fusing Ryan's memories and becoming the new Ryan.
This, of course, was the reason why he was exiled again.
Just because he can't stay in Reims doesn't mean his actions will stop.
Now, the man who commanded the operation became his confidant Lebon Randolph, and a certain amount of family infighting was allowed as long as it was within the prescribed limits and as long as it did not exceed the boundaries.
The hub is not beetle, and the flowing water is not rotten......
This kind of truth is clearly understood by the big families.
It's just that the rough and brutal operation like the previous one is not allowed, and it is okay to stumble on the other side, just like Leo's two sons, as part of the family heir, will definitely be taken care of by Ron Leslie or someone from other factions, and they will not be allowed to pass the trial easily.
This study is the secret room of Lustu, the president of the Plantagenet Trading Company, and unlike the office outside, only distinguished guests will welcome Rustu into this study.
Of course, many secret agreements were also signed here.
Now, the master of the study, Rustu, was standing outside the door of the study, and stood with a very polite bow, knocking respectfully on the door, until he heard the people inside shouting in, and then gently pushed the door open and walked in.
Lebon Randolph, who occupies the magpie's nest, does not sit behind his desk, but stands in front of the huge floor-to-ceiling glass, looking into the distance, because the floors are relatively high, here, when the weather is good, you can see the blue world of the sea of stars in the distance, and you can see pieces of white sails shuttling back and forth on the blue sea.
Now that the sun is shining, Lebang can see it very clearly.
When Rustu's footsteps stopped behind him, he turned around, let go of his furrowed brow, and his empty eyes sharpened.
Although Rustu is the president of the Plantagenet Trading Company, he is only responsible for daily operations and has a certain say in business strategy, just like the professional manager of those large companies on Aqua Blue Star, even if he has dry shares in the trading company, and his annual salary is very large, however, this is only the surface.
There was a force within the Plantagenet Trading Company, which he could know and borrow, but could not control it single-handedly, and the person who controlled this power was Lebon Randolph, who stood in front of him.
This unassuming old man holds his life and death in his hands.
As long as the other party says a word, his future and fate can be decided, so Rustu has to behave so respectfully, even if there are thousands of complaints in his heart, he doesn't dare to show it at all.
"What is the order?"
Lebang said softly.
Rustu nodded, he was very well dressed, with a gorse badge pinned to his left breast pocket, and when he looked up to see that Lebon was still staring at him, his gaze not taking his eyes off, he said in a deep voice.
"But don't worry, sir, you can't go wrong!"
"That's the best!"
Lebang withdrew his eagle-like eyes.
"In short, be prepared for the failure of the plan, take into account all aspects, don't think of a temporary solution after something happens, that little guy is not so easy to deal with!"
With that, the corners of his mouth twitched slightly, as if he was sneering.
"Never go wrong?"
He said softly.
"There is no such thing as a world that is infallible, and no one can control everything but God......"
As he spoke, he turned around and continued to look at the world outside the floor-to-ceiling window, looking at the sea of stars in the distance.
The words that came out of his mouth were not only to warn Rustu not to be careless, but also to speak his mind, knowing that when Ryan was still a nobody, he was able to escape assassination, not only escaped from all kinds of dangers, but also became powerful, and now, he has become a transcendent being.
Transcendental!
It's hard to deal with!
