Hearing that the people of the Barras family were coming, Zhang Tie followed Kita to the gate of the castle to see what those strange guys looked like, but just after coming to the gate of the castle, Zhang Tie heard an ugly voice scolding outside the castle.
"Bastard, do you know who I am? These are the guards I brought, why do you want them to lay down their weapons to enter La Merche, who gave you the right, Olena, let her come out and explain to us a few people why the people of the Barras family are still being treated so rudely on the territory of the Barras Merchant Order! ”
As soon as the sound fell, there was a commotion outside the castle.
"That's it, why do you want us to lay down our weapons when we enter La Merche and don't allow us all to go in!"
"Go back to Limestone Fort, I'll just say we're not welcome here, but you have to come......"
"I heard that the woman was assassinated last night, and she told us that we were kind enough to see her, and now she turned her away, what does that mean?"
When these voices were coaxed, Peryve's roar rang out, "This is the rule of La Mercastle, I don't care what the Barras family you are, who the fuck has ever seen a castle where hundreds of heavily armed soldiers can enter with weapons at a time without being inspected, and those who want to enter the castle must put down their weapons, and the number can only be ten people at most!" The rest of the people had to wait outside the castle. ”
As soon as Perif finished speaking, there was a sudden scolding outside the castle.
Zhang Tie and Kita did not go to the gate of the castle to join in the fun, but came to the tower of the castle, and looked down through the shooting hole of the arrow stack on the tower.
The drawbridge of the castle has been lowered, but at this moment, between the drawbridge and the gate of the castle, there is a team of more than 2oo people crowding around, and among the more than two hundred people, there are three people in gorgeous clothes riding on the mounts of three unusual horses, looking at the guards of La Mer Castle at the gate of the castle with pride. When I entered the castle, I didn't see these three people dismounting, so you can imagine the arrogance and arrogance of these three people.
Standing on the tower of the castle, Zhang Tie could still see that the three people were all old, each of them had a little gray head, and the body shape of the three people was fat, thin, and barely normal, but a little bald, but it was also clear at a glance.
……
"These guys are the bastards of the Barras family?" Zhang Tie turned his head and asked Kita.
Kita nodded and said fiercely, "The fat man in the middle is Sirisses, the thin man on his left is Mesa, and the bald guy is called Etna, these three people are the cousins of the deceased husband of the lady, and the three of them used to be some small people in the market of Charles Island, but I didn't expect that after coming to St. Hena Island, I slowly forgot who I was!" ”
"Do they live in Fort Limestone? Apart from these few people, who else is the Barras family on the island? ”
"Limestone Fort is a castle that several of them forced Mrs. to build for them four years ago, they used to live in La La Castle, in addition to the three of them, the children and wives of these three people add up to more than ten people, these people used to live in La Merbourg, but among these miscellaneous pieces of the Barras family, someone actually wanted to beat Madame's idea, Madame let them move out, and after moving out of La Mercaust, these people pretended to be pitiful everywhere in the city of St. Hena, and said bad things about Madame, as a last resort, Madame built Limestone Fort for them, and let them all move in!"
"Did these people come to La Mer Castle with so many people before?"
"No, only a dozen at most!"
As soon as Kita said Zhang Tie, he understood, the three guys below are not thieves, why do they have to bring so many people to the Blue Castle in the middle of the day, but these guys can bring so many people, they must have already thought of a reason - since Olena was assassinated, then they should go out and bring a little more manpower in case of accidents.
"It would be a lot easier if we could kill these guys here!" Zhang Tie sighed, touched a steam city defense ballista beside him and said.
"I think so too, but in that case, Madame's reputation will be ruined!" For Zhang Tie's words, Kita also looked like he agreed.
After a period of commotion, the guys below saw Peryve's resolute attitude, and more importantly, even if they were making trouble below, no one seemed to open the city defense equipment above the castle, and the castle was calm as usual, without any arrangements for them, which made those people completely relieved, and the three guys on the horse just discussed it and agreed to bring only seven guards into the fort.
……
Olena met the three people of the Barras family in the council hall of the castle, as Olenna's current "personal bodyguard", Zhang Tie was also in the council room, a little lazily and Kita stood behind Olena, watching the three bastards of the Barras family walk in.
"Olena, I heard that you were attacked last night, it's okay!"
As soon as he entered the council chamber, Sirisis cried out with a slippery and exaggerated emphasis, as if he were afraid that others would not hear him.
When he was in Huaiyuan County, Zhang Tie had seen many people wearing expensive clothes made of oriental silk, but he had never seen a few people wearing clothes that would be so tasteless.
"I'm fine, it's just that what happened last night made my brain sober up a lot at once, and I figured out a lot of problems and saw through them!" Olena said with a smile, not at all able that yesterday's events had affected him at all, and her tone was indescribably kind and indifferent.
"Ah, what do you see?" As soon as he heard Olena say this, the bald Etna said a little nervously, and just after he finished speaking, the somewhat thin Mesa next to him hurriedly pulled his sleeve, and Etna, who seemed to react, quickly coughed a few times to hide his nervousness and a trace of gaffe, "Oh, I mean, you figured out something, and you won't be stimulated!" ”
Looking at such a lame table, he almost exposed his bottom in three sentences, and even Zhang Tie couldn't help but roll his eyes on the side, just a few guys like this, they actually wanted to seize the control of the Baras business group, God is not joking. It's no wonder that Olena can tolerate them for so long, because they are stupid enough to make people let their guard down, but in addition to being stupid, it is estimated that Olena did not expect these people to have such a vicious side.
Olena sighed, "I'm thinking, if I die like that last night, the entire Barras Merchant Group will be in danger, I have no relatives by my side, the only relatives are you, I should actually let you share a little more of the management affairs of the Merchant Group, the affairs of the Merchant Group have delayed me too much time over the years, I feel that it is time to give myself a little more time to enjoy life, I have made so much money, it would be a pity to die if I didn't enjoy it!" ”
The three of them were stunned, and the look of surprise seemed to be written on their faces, they didn't expect that this time they came to Highland Castle not only was there no danger, but there would be something good to come.
Etna almost jumped for joy, "This is long overdue, anyway, the Barras merchant group should let the Barras family share a little more!" ”
"Ahem...... Ahem......" Mesa coughed twice, glanced at Sirisis, and asked with some uncertainty, "What you said is true?" ”
"Well, I plan to let the three of you enter the board of directors of the business group first, and learn about the specific operation of the top level of the business group, your rich experience must be able to give me some necessary opinions in the board of directors, and there are also several positions under the business group, Sirises, last time you recommended your son to serve as the representative of the trade representative office of the big 6 of the Barras business group, I think you can consider it!"
The look on his face was still a little suspicious, and even the trace of surprise disappeared after hearing Olena say this, but he pretended to be modest and hesitated, "This, it's not very good......
"I've decided, so be it, let you come over today is to announce this matter to you, once you figure it out, you will know how to let go!" Olenna's pun was only heard a little by Zhang Tie and Kita, who were standing behind her, Kita was still a little puzzled, but Zhang Tie suddenly understood, and was secretly shocked in his heart, at this time, Zhang Tie finally understood what Olena meant by what he said last night, this is the real murder without blood.
"Is that all there is to it?"
"Well, there is one more thing, today I originally planned to visit the patriarch of the Bell family, give him a gift, and by the way, discuss the matter of cooperating with the Bell family to open a new settlement in the middle of St. Hena Island, but because of yesterday's incident, I want to take a rest in the castle today, and when you go back to Limestone Castle, you will help me visit the patriarch of the Bell family!"
"No problem!" The three of them were already a little carried away with joy at this time, and when they heard that Olena had actually assigned them such a "glorious" task, they quickly nodded and agreed.
"Alexander!" Olena shouted, and Alexander, holding a two-foot-square, beautifully shaped gift box in his hand, walked into the council chamber and stood respectfully aside.
Olena had a smile on her face, and her voice became softer, but Zhang Tie felt the fleeting chill emanating from this woman's body, "I will ask Alexander to go with you with a gift, that gift is for the patriarch of the Bell family, he will like it, and there is a letter from me inside!" If nothing happens, you can leave! ”
The three people of the Alexander and Barras families left, Olena made a gesture, Kita also left, and in the entire council hall, only Zhang Tie and the woman were left, Zhang Tie looked at this woman, and felt that there was an indescribable exhaustion in her body, and there was a relief in the exhaustion.
"The gift in that box is the head you left last night, right?" Zhang Tie asked her.
"Well, Old Bell has two sons who died at the hands of those people on Demon Snake Island, and Old Bell has put a lot of effort into studying all the high-level people on Demon Snake Island, and they are all offering rewards for their heads, take that head over, Old Bell will definitely know who that person is!"
Zhang Tie was silent, looking at the woman in front of him, his eyes were slightly responsible, this woman's scheming was really powerful, so powerful that it was beyond his imagination, if those killers on the Demon Snake Island last night were really hired by these people in the Barras family, this woman did this to let those people jump into the fire pit by themselves.
She asked Kita to set up the scene as if she had ambushed those killers last night, and she was tight-lipped about the people who passed by, and then uncharacteristically rewarded these people of the Barras family today, and then asked these people to personally send the head of the killer leader to the Bell family, if these three things are combined, knowing this news, those people on Snake Island will only have one conclusion - the people of Snake Island were betrayed by the people of the Barras family, and the people of the Baras family pretended to hire the killers of the Snake Island to assassinate Olena on the one hand, On the one hand, he must have informed Olena of the news again, saving Olena's life at a critical moment, so that Olena could set a trap and trap all the killers into it. And use the heads of important people on Snake Island as bargaining chips for cooperation with the Bell family......
When a killer organization encounters this kind of thing, they will not hate Olena, but will hate the Barras family who hired them to the core, which is definitely an undying mortal vendetta. Forming a mortal enmity with a killer organization, this result, needless to say.
Don't say that those people in the Barras family still can't understand Olena's intentions, even if they do, it's useless, because this woman's arrangement is all an upright conspiracy, and it is not something they can control and refuse at all.
It was only at this time that Zhang Tie understood why this woman, who didn't seem to be strong at all, could create such a big foundation on this island on her own.
Olena turned her head to look at Zhang Tie, from the expression on Zhang Tie's face, she knew that Zhang Tie had understood her thoughts, she asked Zhang Tie, "Am I bad?" ”
Zhang Tie shook his head, "Have you ever thought about what if the people of the Barras family really weren't involved in this matter?" ”
"Then all the qiē today can be turned into a reward for them, even if it is compensation for my misunderstanding, they will not lose anything, because they are outsiders, and the people of Demon Snake Island will not settle the account on their heads!"
Zhang Tie was completely speechless, for the people of the Barras family, if he did, then today's reward is a poison smeared with honey, if he doesn't do it, then today's reward is a cheese smeared with honey, all the qiē only depends on whether they still have a trace of kindness to this woman in their hearts.
Does such a woman still need to protect herself, Zhang Tie was a little suspicious, I don't know why, Zhang Tie felt that his mood relaxed all of a sudden, the so-called weakness may be the best disguise for this woman.
"Originally, I thought that I might be able to stay on the island of Santa Hena for a while, but from the current situation, it seems that maybe I will be able to leave soon, because you know how to solve your crisis better than I do!"
"Did I make you annoy you so quickly, or do men don't like women who are too scheming!" Olena said with a sigh, a little resentment on her face.
"I have to go to the Ice Wasteland, and if I stay here for too long, I may be swallowed by you!"
Olena laughed amorous at once...... (To be continued...!)
