Chapter 200. Analysis before departure
The banquet set up by the Senge Chamber of Commerce in the inner city of Gray Mist City may be a Hongmen banquet in Levi's opinion, even if it claims to invite decent gentlemen and nobles with heads and faces on the Great Silver Pan Island, but the strong conspiracy atmosphere hidden in it is simply too strong. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
You must know that the shadow of the rebellious viscount is still hovering among this group of nobles, and the Governor who controls the North Trumming Sea is still trying to find out this rat who is secretly planning everything, or the Governor who once controlled the North Trumming Sea, is still seriously ill in bed, and even the basic administrative orders have to be issued by the butler's agent, and the last appearance was two months ago.
No one would believe that the old Governor would survive this painful ordeal, and even if he survived, he had to find an heir without any heirs, because the authority of the Northern Roaring Sea needed to be inherited.
The title of the governor, the status of the earl, the huge amount of wealth, the entire Great Silver Plate Island, the small Silver Pan Island, and even the entire Northern Roaring Sea, are all things that anyone covets, and the taste of power has soaked the little hearts of all nobles, making their eyes slightly red, and feeling the temptation that belongs to the authority of the governor.
Even the nobles who supported the governor wanted to support the governor at a critical time, and reaped the sweet fruits of the final victory, and even in order to push the governor into a corner, they sometimes deliberately indulged the breeding of rebel forces.
In their opinion, everything is under control, as long as they demonstrate their loyalty and reliability in front of the Governor at a critical time, then in the end, the authority of the entire Northern Roaring Sea may fall to them, because this idea is really good.
A choppy banquet is about to begin, but Levi in Cape Town on the East Coast is still fighting for the development of his territory, at least compared to those nobles who don't seem to know anything, Levi has a lot to face, especially the direction closest to the new route on the east coast, once attacked, it is also the first area to encounter the war.
He didn't want the town he had worked so hard to build would eventually turn into flames under the pressure of the enemy's army, leaving only a pitch-black ruin to remember his old memories!
And just after the meeting, Levi also left Green, his most trusted chief minister, the main details still need to be discussed by the two of them, especially the banquet in Gray Mist City, this kind of banquet with obvious conspiracy, if you want to go, you must also have a detailed plan, at least your own safety, but you must ensure perfection.
In this regard, Li Wei continued to hold the snow-white envelope, his eyes swept over the letters on it, and finally formed a beautiful sentence, and couldn't help but praise softly: "I have to say, there is still calligraphy in this world." ”
"But, Your Majesty, did you really choose to go to this banquet?"
Green looked at Levi's seemingly relaxed eyes, but his face was serious, and he gently reached out and tapped the table, as if to prove the firmness of his words, and said in a deep voice: "But this banquet is definitely not simple, I am afraid that there will be an accident, once you can't carry out the rescue in time because of the isolation of the guards, your situation will be very passive at that time." ”
"The banquet organized by the Senge Chamber of Commerce, I don't think there will be too much danger, after all, in the Gray Mist City, this huge Chamber of Commerce has always been known for its neutrality."
Smiling slightly, Levi didn't seem worried, still looking at the beautiful characters on the envelope, his eyes narrowed slightly, and he smiled faintly: "Besides, most of the nobles and gentlemen in Gray Mist City will also be present, if there is no accident, it may be a temptation for everyone." ”
Levi's words paused slightly, looking at Green's slightly frowning brow, he also smiled and said: "It may be a temptation for our Governor, after all, we haven't seen him for three months, who knows what happened to this supreme being?" ”
"That's what I'm talking about, and that's why it's more dangerous."
Green also understood Levi's words, this kind of power struggle always seems to be a graceful calm, but under this calm sea, there is a violent undercurrent that can burst into a tsunami at any time, he is not sure what the power struggle in Gray Mist City is, and can only suggest Levi: "We can bear the enemy attack, or encounter some difficulties and shirk it." ”
Touching his chin, Levi said easily: "Old Morton can at least hold up some of the pressure, he is so cunning and can solve anything, I don't believe he will have no backhand." ”
Squinting his eyes, Levi's eyes were also a little dignified, remembering the rumors about old Moulton before, the fingers on the table also lightly tapped on the table, and said lightly: "It's time to ask Old Moulton, especially the elven fleet is about to appear, I don't want to resist their invasion by myself." ”
"But we don't know who old Morton is."
Green was also slightly stunned, and his mind quickly remembered the rumors he had learned about Old Moulton, the owner of the Sea Lance Tavern, hesitated for a moment, and slowly said, "But can we really believe him?" ”
"At least we don't have anyone more trustworthy who helped me in my humbliest of times."
Shrugging his shoulders, Levi stood up and came to the window, looked at the already brilliant galaxy outside the window, and slowly exhaled and said: "I also want to mix in the shuffle of Gray Mist City, especially our trade, which can't be broken." ”
Gray Mist City is currently Levi's biggest trading partner, especially when the small sugarcane plantation is established, the sugar produced must also be exchanged for shiny silver coins through the trade object, only in this way is a good environment for development, and now Levi is just a small lord in a remote area in the eyes of that group of nobles, even if he has the strength, he will not put it on the table at all.
When the battle between the rebel viscount and the governor continues, everything will be handled seemingly calmly, and even if it is really time for the war to meet each other, it will only be a very rapid bloody storm.
The struggle between the aristocracy is very fast, especially when it comes to the struggle for power, which can often be settled in just a few days, and even if there are still some remnants hidden, it will not make any waves at all, and this is a model of the struggle for the rights of the Western aristocracy.
As long as it can be recognized by the majority of nobles, then the power can be consolidated, and now in the Gray Mist City, it is precisely because of the governor's serious illness that he has lost the ability to reassure the nobles, which has caused the secret plot of the rebel viscount, even those nobles who choose to stand by the governor's side, in fact, it is also a plan.
"Alright, let's rest first."
Taking out his pocket watch, Levi looked at the time that had been displayed at ten o'clock, and also turned his head to Green, who had been busy all day, and said, "Have a good rest, we will build two more buildings tomorrow." ”
"Yes, Your Majesty the King." Green bowed his head slightly, then quickly cleaned up the tables and chairs in the conference room and gently retreated. The cabinet minister's room was on the second floor, and it was not Grimm's duty tonight, so he quickly came to his room, put his tired body on the soft bed, and rested well.
However, Levi, who had already taken a nap beforehand, did not feel sleepy in the slightest, but turned around and walked towards the outside of the sheriff's residence, although the light of the stars and moon shone down, it was still extremely dark in the shadows of the corners of the surrounding buildings.
Several groups of armed citizens armed with torches also walked slowly, they were night patrols, and when they saw Levi, they also bowed their heads to say hello, and then they didn't mean to stay, still seriously patrolling the surroundings of the traditional houses, as well as the vicinity of the newly built wooden houses on both sides, carefully and cautiously scanning for any suspicious situation.
Levi walked along the formed street, and there was a snoring sound from the houses on both sides, which was the citizens who had been tired from a long day resting, although there were still not enough rooms, but with the newly built wooden houses, they could barely huddle together to rest.
Without disturbing the already tired citizens, Levi walked up the stone staircase towards the city wall, and patrols of sailors armed with flintlock pistols also patrolled the entire city wall with torches, but their number was still too small for the whole wide wall, and there were still large sections of the wall in the gap between the patrols.
Thankfully, there weren't too many enemies at the moment, and Levi stood on the city wall and looked at the roaring sea in the east, and the light of the stars and moon also dotted the sea with a different kind of beauty.
At a height of four meters, the howling of the sea breeze was also a little more, Levi stretched out his hand and wrapped the woolen cloak on his body, and squinted his eyes tightly, I don't know why, now he is standing here and a little dazed in his heart, looking at the undulating sea in front of him, and the sea level looming in the distance, there is also a touch of pride in his heart: "This is my territory." ”
Not far away, in the deep water, there are also dots on the huge Galen sailboat, which is the oil lamp hanging outside to show the outline of the sailboat, and the vague huge hull in the moonlight is also one of the sources of pride in Levi's heart.
This is a symbol of the power of firepower, Levi's current strongest flagship, and also the world's biggest reliance!
Besides, Levi doesn't believe that in the turbulent dark tide of Gray Mist City, there will be any disadvantage for him, a rookie who is currently appearing, because it is too late to win him over, how can he push this currently strongest guy on the East Coast in the direction of the enemy?!
