Chapter 587: Shadow Thief Meeting (Asking for a Monthly Pass, Asking for a Subscription)
The churches in this world are full of copper stench, and as long as it is said that Solam donated millions to the two churches, then no one else will doubt the motives of the two churches to send Solam to protect them.
After all, if other churches encounter such big donors, they will also be careful to protect them.
Scarlett's use of this reason to prevaricate the shadow thief is undoubtedly very reasonable, no, hearing Scarlett's explanation, the eyes of the members of the Shadow Council lit up. Donate millions to the church? That's not to say that Solam is really a big fat sheep.
Although the horns of the big fat sheep can kill the dragon, it also makes them even more curious about the contract that Scarlett brought back, which they haven't actually seen yet.
However, this did not prevent them from imagining, they didn't care how much the shadow thief had retreated, only how much benefit Soram could give.
"What about the masked mages? What are they going to do? ”
Fitzterler was not blinded by the news of the church, the power of the church made him jealous, but this was not the reason why Scarlett would back down so much, he believed that there must be something else, otherwise Scarlett would not have backed down so easily, and only the masked mage caused all this.
"Like us, they also saw Solam's potential, even before we did, and the mages had already made contact with Soram before I went."
"Damn! Why did the masked mage intervene?!! ”
"That's right! They crossed the line! That's the benefit of our shadow thieves! What do they want to do? ”
"Humph! We must report to the Council! ”
"These unsightly freaks! Why are they all in business? ”
......
As soon as Scarlett said this, all the councilors exploded, in their opinion, Soram was in conflict with their shadow thief at that time, according to the rules, they should avoid suspicion, at least they had to wait until their shadow thief and Soram's grudge was settled before contacting Solam!
They now see Solam as a big piece of fat, and a little bit of it has been divided by the Masked Mage Guild, and for them, it is a big piece missing! How can this be accepted by these legislators who are always ready to take advantage?
Scarlett waited for a long time, and after the gang had stopped, she said calmly: "It's useless, strictly speaking, they didn't break the rules, they can completely say that they are cooperating with the Storm Bear Chamber of Commerce." ”
"Fart! Isn't the Storm Bear Chamber of Commerce already Solam's industry? One of the councillors jumped up at once.
"It's a fart, but it's enough to have this reason, when we dealt with Solam, we didn't target the Storm Bear Chamber of Commerce, and now as long as they take this point, who will the Council favor, do you need to say? All they have to do is have that reason. ”
Fitzteler was calm, he knew that in the eyes of the Council, the Masked Mage's Guild was much higher than their Shadow Thieves. On this non-violation of principles, it is certain that they favor masked mages, and they are only asking for trouble when they file a lawsuit.
And at the beginning, in order not to offend the relationship behind the Violent Bear Chamber of Commerce, they did not link Solam and the Violent Bear Chamber of Commerce together, but deliberately separated the two, they just simply emphasized that it was a personal grudge, so if you really want to talk about it, this reason also makes sense.
Hearing Fitztier's calm pouring of cold water, the group of people also fell into depression.
If you can't get on the stage, you can't get on the stage, no matter how majestic the shadow thief is outside, but in the eyes of that group of high-ranking nobles, a thief is a thief, and the shadow thief is just a domestic thief, and there is no difference in essence.
So these parliamentarians are a little sad, and they also feel a little resentful about their situation.
"What did they talk to Solam?" Fitzjiler didn't bother to care what the gang thought, but continued to ask.
"They think the same as us, however, at first Soram didn't take a fancy to them, until Meloti arrived, and Soram had a secret talk, what was discussed, I don't know, anyway, the final result is that the five masked mages together gave two million shares in the Storm Bear Chamber of Commerce, they accounted for thirty percent of the shares, but nothing mattered, only dividends."
"So what do you think they talked about? Don't say you don't know! I know you don't know! I'll just say what you think, and I'll judge what it is. ”
Scarlett is a very interesting person in the council, she has always been in charge of intelligence, and she is silent about subsequent decisions and conjectures, except in this case, Fitzteler forces her to say.
Feztimeler knew that this was a sign that Scarlett didn't want to take responsibility, but it just so happened that Fetztierer didn't like this attitude very much, although it meant that Scarlett was honest and didn't take care of things, but the problem was that Fetzteler also needed the collective wisdom of others, otherwise he would use his brains alone in such a large organization?
"Well, I guess it's nothing more than the masked mage, they work for Soram in private, and Soram gives them benefits. I remember very well that before I went, the masked mage wanted to contribute money to the partnership, but Solam didn't like it at all, he didn't think that 2 million was a lot. They must have made a big concession to make Soram change his mind in the end. ”
Hearing this, a group of parliamentarians had no other idea than lamenting that Solam was rich and the masked mage was shameless. After all, it's okay for others to play like this, and no one has stipulated that masked mages can't do business.
As for the secret pact made by those high-level mages and Solam, so what? As long as they don't rebel, who cares? No one would trouble a disciple of a legendary mage for this.
"Is that what you decided to concede?"
"Well, I think that's enough, Soram now has the support of the masked mage and the two major churches behind him, and if we want to get the benefits, we will undoubtedly have to pay more, so I made a concession."
"And what about handing him over the docks?"
"That's what Soram asked, he felt that his business needed a little security, and the most important part of his business was the dock, and he didn't feel very safe." Speaking of which, Scarlett shrugged her shoulders at Fizteler and said helplessly.
"You know our reputation as a shadow thief, but he still can't trust us. However, it's nothing, anyway, the biggest gang in the dock has been killed by us, and it's nothing to hand it over to him, he promised that the gangster sphere of influence he established will only stay in the dock area, and will not expand, but should be given a thirty percent increase to his filial piety, so I agreed. ”
"With so many concessions, can his spices really bring us so much benefit? And about the source of goods, did he say anything? Of course, Fitztimeler didn't have any ideas, he thought very simply, just two points.
The first is whether they can have enough spices to meet the supply of their shadow thieves, after all, in the promise given by Solam, only 30% of the goods arriving in Hong Kong, if there are not many goods, these three achievements are not interesting. That little money, they can't look down on the shadow thieves.
The second is that Fitzteler is very interested in the source of goods, if they can know the source of goods, with the power of their shadow thief, even if they snatch it from Solam, it is nothing, to deal with a Solam, their shadow thief is not willing to pay too much price, but with a spice source, it is another matter.
"No matter how smart they are, they can't tell me about the source of the goods, but I got some news from a woman named Nazaire under Solam, who is the person in charge of this negotiation, and that woman is indeed a talent."
When Scarlett heard Fitzterer ask, she could only pout her lips, how could there be a good person in the shadow thief? Fitzteler was no exception, he was even more greedy and vicious than the stupid parliamentarians below, though he generally didn't show it.
In order to stabilize Fitztier, Scarlett had to reveal a little information, and she didn't want her relationship with Soram to be affected. And this information was not made up by her, she actually observed it, so it was no problem to fool Fitztier.
Hearing Scarlett's words, Fitzgerer immediately became interested, he didn't care much about women, he cared more about Scarlett's news from that woman's mouth.
"What's the news?"
"That woman has a relationship with pirates in the Far East, and I have heard the names of Tushan Monastery and several pirates of the East from her mouth."
The Far East is far away from the Feron Continent, and only some pirates in the southernmost part of the continent will encounter these pirates, compared to the pirates of Feron, the range of activities of the Far Eastern pirates is undoubtedly much larger, in addition to the waters of the Far Eastern Continent, these Far Eastern pirates also appear from time to time in the southern waters of Feron.
Let's put it this way, if it weren't for the fact that the Far Eastern pirates didn't care much about the interests of the west coast, they would have invaded the west coast of Feren long ago. It was also because they didn't have much access to the West Coast that few people knew about these pirates, and most of them were hearsay.
The shadow thief eats the news and knows more. That's why I know the names of Tushan Monastery and those Oriental pirates. Among them, Tushan Monastery is more important than the names of those pirates.
The Far Eastern pirates are different from the Faren pirates, and one of their biggest forces is controlled by a group of monasteries, so there are many warrior monks in the Far Eastern pirates, they are all orderly and evil existences, extremely disciplined, and the overall combat effectiveness is much stronger than that of the pirates of Faeron.
It is not known why the monasteries that trained the warrior monks were involved in the pirates, but it is said that they raised money through pirate trade for some great duty.
All in all, few people on the continent know about these circumstances, and even fewer know about the existence of Tushan Monastery, the largest monastery in the evil faction of the Eastern Monastery Order.
The people of Orientals and Pheren are different, they don't care much about fame and are very low-key. Therefore, those who know about Tushan Monastery must be those who are very familiar with the pirates of the East can say it.
After all, the word "Tushan" is not in Fei Lun's language at all, and it is a bit difficult to say it properly!
"So, their source of spices was provided by those Oriental pirates?"
"I don't know, I'm just telling you what I've heard." Scarlett has changed her former appearance again, and easily does not express her opinion.
"Damn! I need your ideas, don't always be so irresponsible! Scarlett! Fitzteler was speechless about this, these people under him were either too ambitious, or they didn't have any ambition at all, and it was difficult for him to do it!
