Chapter 31: Ambition

Heavy gasps, visible white mist spilled from Berg's mouth and nose again and again, as if there was a real volcano in his body, and these were just hot mist evaporated from the boiling of magma. As he breathed again and again, the purple and black color on his face faded little by little, and gradually became normal.

At this time, Berg's entire body had appeared in the light, and in front of him was Pheloch under the protection of the God's Barrier, backed by the dark circle of light formed by the power of the realm.

"Lyles, ......"

——————————————————————————

With a bang, Lyles slapped his right hand on the coffee table with an angry face.

"Your meeting didn't think of adding these conditions until now, isn't it too much to rob while the fire is hot, and the appearance is inevitably ugly!"

The old man turned a blind eye to Lyles's anger, and his tone was full of banter: "Robbery? Originally, it was his own thing, and what kind of robbery did he fight, the patriarch was really joking. ”

Lyles leaned back in his chair, "Then you can just take it away, and you don't have to talk about any conditions." ”

The old man suddenly smiled, turned around and left, "There are many young masters in the Peterson family. The voice was very soft, but in this quiet place, Lyles must have heard it. Lyles suddenly got up when he heard this, and threw out two wine jugs in succession, just like the previous one. The old man didn't look back, his left and right hands caught it together, and he stopped at his feet.

Lyles smiled wryly. The so-called negotiation should at least be at a similar level between the two sides. But he didn't know how many layers were between him Peterson and the Hero Chamber of Commerce. His confidence is just to give the Hero Chamber of Commerce a sufficient reason. But he had just learned from the old man that the Chamber of Commerce had also received two other appointments. One is the revenge of the extermination of the clan, issued by the young patriarch of the Hawking family who was exterminated by Peterson, and the other is the revenge of the extermination, issued by the leader of the mercenary group in The Hague. Which of these two is not more justified than the reason he can provide? So, what is left to rely on? His intelligence is not a good thing for someone who wants to take over Peterson, and it is much easier to support a fool than to use him. So just by saying a word, the other party has the capital to turn around and leave.

"It's in Xia Menglang, and I lost my square inch for a while, so please don't blame the old man. I still have some private possession of this wine, and I still have about a dozen cans left, so I will order someone to take it and make amends for you. Lyles bowed deeply to the old man's back, facing the earth, unable to see his expression.

"It's going to be a long night," the old man opened another bottle of wine and paced back to his original position, "but it shouldn't be used for such a waste, and watching a play is better than talking nonsense, you say, patriarch." ”

Lyles didn't even dare to say it, but the old man shook his head.

"The heart city government has it, but the others are a little lacking. You don't have to come with me like this, first, you can't paralyze me, and second, even if you are unhappy in your heart, it is difficult to have a chance to take revenge on me in this life. He waved his hand to stop Lyles' next words, because that must not be what he wanted to hear, "What I just asked, in addition to all the resources and profits of the Peterson family for the next ten years, we also need control of all trade routes, as well as your discretionary decision-making power in several areas. There's no bargaining, but you can make a request and we'll probably accept it, and it's only this one chance to make it or not. So, Patriarch Lyles, think about it. ”

After the old man finished speaking, he drank to himself and did not look at the man in front of him again.

After Lyles returned to the main position and straightened his position, these conditions were not so harsh, but it was the Hero Chamber of Commerce who made the shot, and he didn't believe that after the contract was signed, the other party might miss, but ...... He rubbed his eyebrows, and the wrinkles between his eyebrows and eyes were clearly visible, indicating that he had entered middle age. These requirements of the Chamber of Commerce have compressed the space for his operation to the extreme, this is another decade, and after a change of days, he is still a puppet, which makes him how can he be willing. He let his mind run wild, letting all the anger, reluctance, and resentment run wild in his mind. After a minute, he took a light breath to dispel all the emotions that he shouldn't have, and began to seriously consider the only chance the Chamber of Commerce had given him.

A thought flashed through his brain, and he was as sharp as lightning, grasping the inspiration for the moment, and then lingering in it for a long time. His hands began to tremble uncontrollably, and his breathing was choppy. It took him more time than he had done to calm himself down, to think about the pros and cons and the details, but he soon gave up on doing it because it made little sense.

"I've figured it out."

—————————————————————————

"Lyles, how did he get his hands on you?"

In the study, Berg had returned to normal, but the realm behind him had not been withdrawn.

"I heard that there is a follower and contacted the fifth-level agent of the Chamber of Commerce."

I don't know what kind of considerations, Felloch gave it all and did not hide it.

"It's just a fifth-level agent, how can you accept such a commission, are you kidding?"

"That's up to Lyles to pay for it."

Berg lowered his head slightly, and said quietly: "Now that the Peterson family is still my master, do you think I won't be able to pay the price he can pay?" ”

"Oh?" Felloch's expression was full of banter again, "You can also pay for the next ten years of the Peterson family?" ”

"Huh!" Berg snorted coldly, "What qualifications does he have to agree to such conditions for you!" ”

"As long as you're gone, plus the 'assistance' of the Chamber of Commerce, what's so difficult about this." Felloch deliberately bit the word "auxiliary" very hard. He seemed to be particularly childlike tonight, especially when he saw that the green tendons on Berg's sideburns began to jump again, he always felt extremely happy, and said that this was the pleasure of leaning against the big tree to enjoy the coolness.

Berg was already angry in his heart, but now that he had his emotions under control, he would not easily release the angry lion in his heart, because he needed a clearer mind to deal with everything that followed.

"So, what are Lyles' conditions, let me not be in charge, to die or live?"

"Hehe, about this, I have to say that your son is excellent. As long as he turns out, as for your life or death, he has never mentioned it, anyway, don't block him from taking over the family, so the two paths for you at the beginning, old friend, which one do you choose? ”

There was a long silence, and then the old Berg, who bowed his head slightly, raised his chin and showed a cold gaze.

"I choose ......"

With a bang, the crystal cracked, and the study was purple for a while.

————————————————————————————

"My condition is ......" Lyles took five minutes to think, and then said without hesitation: "I hope to contribute to the Chamber of Commerce, and I am willing to serve the dogs and horses." ”

The old man grinned silently, and sighed in his heart: "What a Lyles, what a young patriarch's ambition......"
