"Level 4 events?" Jeffrey stood up suddenly, looked at Mars with a somewhat gloomy face, and said, "What the hell is going on?" How could Cyril get involved in this fourth-level incident? And being targeted by the people of Basti Prison? ”

"President, here's the thing, ten days ago, Goodinia and ......" Mars didn't dare to slack off, and told the story of how Goodinia and Ward got into trouble with the Maimi Restaurant, and then because Ward's Gabriel was involved in the fourth-level incident, and Cyril received the money from the two families, he inquired about the news from Basti Prison through various means, stuffed money everywhere, and tried to get through the relationship to rescue the two.

After listening to Mars's words, Jeffrey was silent for a while, looked into Mars's eyes with deep eyes and said, "Mars, how many years have you been by my side?" ”

"Twenty-three years, President." Mars lowered his eyes, not daring to look Geoffrey in the eye.

"Since Old Jack died, you have been with me, and your father and son have been with me for most of your lives, how do I treat you?" Jeffrey asked.

"When my father was alive, he often talked about the good of the president, he has been by the president's side since he was a coachman, and he has always been grateful for the uncle's promotion, I have been by the president's side for more than 20 years, and the president has treated me like a relative." Mars's head lowered even deeper.

"In this case, I haven't died yet, why am I in such a hurry to stand in line? You have to remember that as long as I am alive, the patriarch of the Morton family will still be me, the president of the Aden Chamber of Commerce will still be me, and the first person in the business community of the City of Chaos will still be me, Jeffrey Moulton. Jeffrey laughed, a little sarcastic.

"Yes...... It's ......" Mars lowered his head, the hair on his forehead was already soaked with sweat, although he had been by Jeffrey's side for more than twenty years, every time he stood in front of him, he still remembered the elder who had trained his father to the bloody head when they first met him as a child.

He is like a male teacher, awe-inspiring when he is lying on his stomach, and when he roars, everyone has to bow their heads.

He is the king of this estate, the king of the Chamber of Commerce of Aden.

"Go get that idiot here." The smile on Jeffrey's face faded, he withdrew his gaze from Mars's body, looked at the maple tree that began to redden not far away, and said lightly: "From today onwards, you don't appear in front of me again, the shop below, you choose the farthest one." ”

"President......" Mars's face changed drastically, looking at Jeffrey's expressionless side face, he still swallowed back all the words that followed, no one could change Jeffrey's decision.

"Take care of yourself." Mars bowed deeply, turned away with a gloomy expression, and when he walked out of the garden, Mars glanced back at the gray-haired old man in the garden, and suddenly remembered what his father said to him on his deathbed: "Remember, there is only one president in this world, and what you have to do is to be absolutely loyal to him, and that's enough." ”

"Father, maybe I should have listened to you." Mars clenched his fists and turned away, his steps a little heavy, he knew that he might never return to this beautiful manor again, and his heart seemed to be vacant of something.

From childhood to adulthood, he watched this manor prosper, watched the young and strong president grow old, and the morning sun sprinkled on this luxurious manor, but it seemed to be sprinkled with the afterglow of the setting sun, and there was a feeling of twilight.

"If the eldest young master hadn't chosen to become a teacher back then, maybe this manor could have become even more magnificent, right? At least...... It doesn't decay too quickly. Mars thought in his heart, but soon shook his head with a smile again, he remembered how happy the eldest young master was when he got the teacher acceptance letter from the Chaos Academy, "Probably this is the life he really wants, even if there is no manor, it is enough to have children." ”

……

"Father, listen to me explain this matter, I ......" Cyril hastened to the garden, his face was a little pale, and Mars had already told him about the situation, and at the same time said goodbye.

Mars is the most trusted person next to his father, although he usually only acts as a microphone, but he is the only one who can understand Jeffrey's meaning through a look and a cough, and has a special status in the Aden Chamber of Commerce.

But now he has been directly dismissed, and from then on he will no longer hold any position in the Chamber of Commerce, and can only enter the shop under the Morton family and become a real marginal figure.

Cyril wasn't stupid and knew what that meant, and Jeffrey was angry, and very angry.

"Smack!!

Before Cyril could finish his words, Jeffrey, who turned around, slapped him in the face, and his crisp voice startled the insects in the flowers to stop chirping.

"Poof!"

Cyril knelt directly on the ground, his left cheek was high and swollen, he looked at Jeffrey with a frightened face, and said in a trembling voice: "Father, I was wrong, I know I was wrong......"

"You know it's wrong?" Jeffrey withdrew his hand, the hand in the wide sleeve trembled slightly, looked at Cyril, and raised his voice a few points: "Then tell me, what is wrong with you?" ”

"I'm ......," Cyril opened his mouth, but he choked at once, and his eyes rolled, not knowing what to say.

"If you don't say it, then I'll tell you what's wrong with you." Jeffrey looked at Cyril like a clown, looked at him condescendingly, and said with a somewhat mocking smile: "First, you shouldn't touch my people, Mars and his son have followed me for decades, loyalty is the most basic principle of a servant, when you make him obey you, you have an unfaithful servant." ”

"Second, you shouldn't change the rules I set, I set the rule that half of the restaurants in the Chamber of Commerce of the Food List were set by me back then, because the restaurants that can enter the Chamber of Commerce can be on the list, but the improvement of the ranking can increase the turnover of the restaurant to a certain extent, which has caused the disgust of many ordinary merchants. And you actually took ninety percent of the list, and you still used bidding to rank, as the second young master of the Morton family, are you so short of money? Do you only have such a small amount of money in your eyes? Do you know what the rules are?

Our Morton family can have its current status because of the rules, even if the rules are set by ourselves, we must abide by and maintain them. Only a relatively free market will have vigorous vitality and room for further improvement. And you, you're killing this freedom, so what's the point of our control? ”

"Third, you shouldn't provoke people and forces that you can't afford to provoke. Businessmen seek advantages and avoid disadvantages, this is the foundation of our survival, a real businessman, should be afraid, know how to protect their wings, so that they will always stand in a safe place.

And you, for tens of thousands of copper coins, went to touch Basti Prison and contaminated the fourth-level incident. Do you know what a Level 4 event means? Even if you are the son of the city lord, as long as you commit a fourth-level incident, you can only stay in Basti Prison for the rest of your life. What do you think you are? You still want to get people out of Basti Prison? If you get caught because of this time, don't worry, I won't catch you. ”

"Father, I was wrong, I was wrong, I was wrong......" Cyril turned pale and took a few steps forward on his knees, trying to hug Jeffrey's thigh.

"Don't think that the Morton family can only be handed over to you after my death, and you can do whatever you want." Jeffrey withdrew his left foot in disgust and said coldly: "From today onwards, Gloria is one of the candidates for the successor of the Morton family, and has the inheritance rights of the Morton family like you." ”

"This!" Cyril collapsed to the ground as if struck by lightning, looking up at Jeffrey in disbelief.
