Chapter Seventy-One: New Projects
While the Calites Chamber of Commerce was holding a meeting to discuss the current situation, the Tisiphones began to discuss the current situation in the secret room.
Under the dim fluorite lamp, 4 figures sit in the underground secret room of the castle, the four walls of the room are cool and cold bluestone to the touch, and occasionally you can hear the sound of dripping water in the distance, and the passage outside the secret room is also very complicated, full of mechanisms, even if the enemy breaks through the castle on the ground, it can also be blocked here, and then enter the ocean outside from the underground underground waterway, and finally escape.
The head of the family in Tisiphone had a little sparse hair, a somewhat gray beard, and looked very old, but he was in his fifties. It's just that the early years of fighting left a dark disease, and his health has not been very good, and his face is a little withered.
"Ahem.... That's what you guys came up with? What a shame. He said slowly, hoarsely.
In recent years, the head of the family has long since retreated into the background and began to hand over the big things to the younger generation, but unfortunately this time he was very disappointed. The assassination of Angus, while a risky act, was not impossible. It's just that they actually let Angus's daughter go, and more than once, let her finally live to Hopland.
"Adeley, you used to be the most satisfying kid for me, but now ....... I'm disappointed in you. Could it be that a comfortable and affluent life has made you forget your family's mission? The old man's voice was not fast, but it was inexplicably intimidating.
Adelley sat on a stone chair, one hand propped up and his head looking at the table, his face expressionless, not justified, not ashamed.
Seeing that the scene gradually reached an impasse, Wick had no choice but to stand up and mediate a little.
"We also didn't expect that the Karitas Chamber of Commerce actually temporarily found an unknown master and killed Nehanra in one blow on a rainy night, which led to the failure of the second operation."
Nihanra is the leader of the black-clad cavalry, and his strength in the rain curtain has increased greatly to close to Sequence 4, and if it weren't for Lorain's quick hedge, he wouldn't have been able to defeat him head-on, unless he activated the transcendent core.
It's because it's a rapid charge.,The reaction time to each other is extremely short.,According to the terminology of the game.,At the moment, the attack power is extremely high.,But the defense is extremely low.,So the girl can find a flaw in the thrill.,Kill it.。
"Do you see who the other party is?"
"No, according to the memories of the three cavalrymen who escaped, it was a very short time, it was night and heavy rain, and they only saw each other wearing black robes, and they did not know their faces. And after the Karitas Chamber of Commerce returned to Hopland, the black-robed man did not appear. ”
"Hmph, don't you even know the strength and identity of the other party? There are so many people in the other party's chamber of commerce, don't you know if you just catch one and torture it?"
"We've thought about this too, but that old thing in Seres was born in the army, and he is very strict about secrecy, and after returning to Hopeland, he immediately transferred these guards to the Southern Isles, saying that he was going there to recuperate and do a light job for a while, and now we don't know which island they are on, after all, that side is not our scope of activity."
"Serres...... He's still alive, huh. The old man seemed to remember something, and no longer questioned the matter, but asked about something else.
"What does the organization say?"
"There are new instructions from above, and the mastery of Karitas' shipbuilding skills is the first goal, and the unification of Hopland is slowed down first."
The old man listened without speaking, closed his eyes and was silent for a long time. "Do you understand?"
"I see, if we don't take Karitas right away, the organization will even turn to them and give us up." Adeley finally spoke.
"It's good to understand, we Tisiphonene originated from a family in the country of Oz, and it is because of this origin that the high-ranking alchemists of Rourna will choose us."
"But hundreds of years have passed, and under the pursuit of the dark moon of the Verdant Empire, the strength of our descendants of the Oz Kingdom is much less than before, if we can't make some achievements, then we should be abandoned."
"As a vengeful clan, we have assassinated a grand duke and two little princes in the verdant green, such a feud will not stop on the other side, and if Tisiphone can't move forward, he will perish, this is not alarmist."
"Yes, Father." The three responded.
"Addley and Wick, you two continue to attend to Hopland and the family, and as for Abel......" The old man turned to look at his youngest son.
"You led some people and property to the Southern Isles, cutting off contact with the family, ahem..... Settle down independently over there. The old man was still not at ease after all, and began to prepare a way back for the family.
"Yes, father."
Abel is not very old, estimated to be only 16 years old, with black hair and eyes full of agility.
--------------------------
On the other side, the conference hall where Lorain Hill was located also began a fierce quarrel.
"I don't agree to lease the fleet to other chambers of commerce to carry goods!" A large man dressed in blue and black, wearing a large-brimmed hat and a rough beard, stood up with an angry expression.
Lorain Hill sat in the middle seat with some surprise as to why the captain of the fleet reacted so violently.
It was Hytz, the leader of the Swordfish fleet, who stood up, and he continued.
"The eldest lady thinks about their difficulties, do they consider our difficulties?"
"Back then, when we followed Lord Angus to fight for the shipping route, these old chambers of commerce did not suppress us, they joined forces with the Dayas family, and constantly secretly made trips, belittled and ridiculed us, and even we and the Dayas family's fleet really fought a few times at sea, and both sides died."
"Lord Haze, these are all old things from more than ten years ago, the two sides have long been reconciled, there is a generation of practice, and now Miss Lacey is in charge, and you can't be allowed to make a loud noise!"
Chelsea stood beside Lorain Hill and asked sharply. Although she was only the head maid, her seniority in Carites was extremely old, and many of them were her juniors and had been cared for by her, and as soon as she spoke, the scene suddenly fell silent again.
Looking at Chelsea's sharp eyes, Hayz stood for a while, then sat down unwillingly, but muttered a little quietly in his mouth, old woman.
"Since we got the news relatively early, most of the supplies in the territory of Xifeng have been shipped out in advance, and now we can spare our hands to help other chambers of commerce." Lorain Hill's gaze slowly swept across the audience, and many people stared at her, with expectation, admiration, reverence, and so on in their eyes.
"Of course, I won't help for nothing. Thanks to this cooperation, we at Karitas will sign long-term and stable supply agreements with other chambers of commerce in order to obtain the special products of each family. ”
"With such a wide range of supply channels and categories, we will build a new kind of super store."
"In such a store, customers can easily buy all the daily necessities and all kinds of goods."
"One of the many benefits of this is that it's convenient for customers to buy everything they need without having to run around looking for stores."
"Second, after the gathering effect of the crowd has formed a complete and high-quality reputation, customers will think of this super store no matter what they buy in the future, and they will come here to see it first."
"The third is that the advertising effect is excellent, many things are not usually not needed by customers, but they are not known, and in the super stores with a large number of people, these products can quickly spread out."
"Fourth, to reduce operating costs for some goods that are not usually purchased much, such as books, which are usually not bought by many people, and the cost of opening a store is very high, and there is only a remote counter here."
"Five is ,....."
....
Lorain Hill patiently explained the huge advantages and dimensionality reduction blows that supermarkets bring to ordinary stores. She has experienced that era, in a small town, the newly opened supermarket, the kind of full and novel, long queues of people, the impact of the local small shops.
And under her description, the high-level officials of the Karites Chamber of Commerce listened attentively one by one, and their hearts were full of passion, and they almost couldn't help jumping up and running out to do a big job.
Looking at this peerless and intelligent girl on the first seat, some of the old people in the chamber of commerce were convinced at the moment, and they had to sigh that the blue is better than the blue, and this eldest lady is estimated to make a great cause far beyond Angus.
