Chapter 101: Embarrassed
Just when the Cassidy family wanted to deal with Gu Feicang, another force was also eyeing the fat of St. Yorktown, that is, the Quinn Chamber of Commerce, which is now like glue with St. Yorktown.
As one of the five major chambers of commerce, the Quinn Chamber of Commerce has deep roots, and naturally it is not a monolith, to say that the most outstanding person in the generation of the Quinn Chamber of Commerce is undoubtedly William Moremson, but as a big family, it is impossible for him to be alone, in addition to him, in the Moremson family, there is a big brother and a younger sister.
As the saying goes, the same rice raises a hundred kinds of people, don't look at William Moremson is so outstanding, but as the eldest brother, Barson Morlemson and his sister Kirsten Moremson are quite different, not that these two people are really mediocre, compared to those gentlemen, they can be regarded as young talents, but after being shrouded by William's aura, they seem to be so unsuccessful.
Today, William is already one of the five executive directors of the Chamber of Commerce, and there are even faint rumors that the president, that is, the head of the Morlemsen family, is ready to pass on the position of chairman to him, which makes the two people who have been pressed to death by William how willing.
In such a situation, St. Yorktown, with the attitude of riding the wind and waves, entered their field of vision, as one of the heirs of the Quinn Chamber of Commerce, they can naturally see how much power a rapidly developing St. Yorktown has, if they can swallow this power, the assets of the Quinn Chamber of Commerce will definitely be able to go to the next level, plus, this matter is led by William, if they can do something to hit William's prestige, they are also happy.
In this case, Barson and Kirsten talked to the Cassidy family and learned a piece of news, a news that could be used to hit Gu Feicang, that is, his title was not right.
According to the laws of the Cross Empire, there are three steps to become a nobleman, the first is to be granted a knighthood by the royal king, then the family crest of the nobleman is made, and finally, the canonization ceremony is held, and the oath of allegiance to the empire is held, so that you can become a real nobleman.
At the beginning, because of the attack of the orcs and the chaos in the north, Gu Feicang only had time to obtain the family badge, and he had not yet been officially canonized and loyal to the empire, and then in St. Yorktown, because of the continuous development, he left this point behind, so that even he forgot about it.
In other words, in a strict sense, today's Gu Feicang cannot be regarded as a real nobleman, but only a quasi-nobleman.
Under normal circumstances, the gap between quasi-nobles and nobles is not large, even if Gu Feicang didn't have time to canonize, this matter would at most give him some condemnation or something, which was not a big deal.
But the key is that when St. Yorktown encountered a crisis of the undead, in order to keep St. Yorktown, Gu Feicang, as an imperial baron, abolished the position of the former mayor Simon, and even became the acting mayor of St. Yorktown with the regulation that the imperial nobles could temporarily act as consuls, so that he was charged with impersonating a nobleman and breaking the laws of the empire.
If, after this, Gu Feicang found a city to officially canonize allegiance, then it is nothing, but the key is that he has forgotten about this matter, and now, the Cassidy family and Barson They are deliberately calculating him, and this matter is not a trivial matter, and everyone with a discerning eye knows that this is the two families who want to swallow the fat of St. Yorktown, and because of the power of the Quinn Chamber of Commerce, they naturally will not say anything.
Therefore, even if the empire is now in the midst of war, it has not forgotten the punishment of Gu Feicang, and an edict was sent to St. Yorktown, asking Gu Feicang to go to the imperial capital for trial.
After getting the news, Gu Feicang suddenly exploded, he didn't expect that there would be such a thing, and he didn't expect that the people of the Cassidy family would actually escape in the war, and now they are stumbling on themselves, and the new hatred and old hatred are added together, and he suddenly trembles with anger.
In addition, Gu Feicang was still a little worried about whether he would lose the base of St. Yorktown this time, which started with the particularity of St. Yorktown.
St. Yorktown, compared to other towns or cities, is an extremely special place, and its establishment is based on the laws of the law saint-level powerhouses, so no matter who is in the town of St. York, they must follow the laws left by the law-level powerhouses.
If it were other cities, Gu Feicang could completely ignore the edict of the imperial capital now, anyway, now that the imperial capital is in the midst of a hot water, he can't draw the strength to deal with St. Yorktown, which is why so many cities dare to stand on their own.
But St. Yorktown is different, based on the existence of the law, if Gu Feicang really ignores the edict of the imperial capital, he will be judged by the law to be ineligible to serve as the acting mayor of St. Yorktown, and will be expelled, and at that time, St. Yorktown will really fall into the hands of others, which Gu Feicang can't bear no matter what.
Therefore, this time, he has to go to the imperial capital no matter what, and it is best to be able to get through this difficult time at the same time, obtain the edict of the empire, and officially canonize himself as the mayor of St. Yorktown, so that even if the empire wants to depose himself in the future, it will not be so simple.
But the key is that this time it is clear that someone is making trouble behind his back, Gu Feicang has no foundation in the empire, and he really doesn't have much confidence in how to keep St. Yorktown.
Just when he was a little annoyed, William stepped through the door of the mayor's office for the third time.
Looking at that delicate face, Gu Feicang's face suddenly sank, and he sneered coldly: "Isn't this Director William Morlemson? Aren't you calculating how to swallow our St. Yorktown in the Quinn Chamber of Commerce, what are you doing here, is it because you can feel the feeling of controlling St. Yorktown in advance, do you want me to take out the Book of Sages and play with it for you?"
In the face of Gu Feicang's malice, William's face showed a wry smile, and he couldn't help but say: "Baron Francisco, you misunderstood me, although this time the matter is related to our Quinn Chamber of Commerce, but I promise, it is definitely not my idea, I have always wanted to cooperate with Lord Baron and advance and retreat together, but in the family, how many people are not successful, and after being bewitched, they have acted recklessly and brought trouble to Lord Baron, and I also ask Lord Baron to forgive me." ”
"Forgive me, to put it mildly, your Quinn Chamber of Commerce has caused me so much trouble, today, I will settle the account with you, Linus, teach him a lesson!"
