Tomorrow is 515, the anniversary of the starting point, and the day with the most benefits. In addition to the gift bag and school bag, this time's "515 Red Envelope Flip" must be seen, how can there be a reason not to grab the red envelope, set the alarm clock high~

On the field road, a steam car is moving slowly.

This car looks like an expensive horse-drawn carriage on the outside, and compared to the steam cars in Shadowland, this one is clearly well-polished and designed.

At this moment, Samir, who was sitting in the car, was listening to his son report to him.

"Knights of Origin? Are you saying that the boy of the Firth family, relying on Vivian's connections, got into the Nord of the Blackwater Knights and became an official knight? ”

Compared with more than thirty years ago, Samir is old, and the wrinkles and white beard on his face reveal his age, but the glint in his eyes expresses ambition.

His ambition has not diminished with age, but has become stronger and stronger.

"Father, too many things have happened in Angesaland this month, at the beginning of the month there was a werewolf riot, I heard that many soldiers died, and the upper and lower houses launched an impeachment of the king because of this, and now he has come to power and ascended the throne, I heard that it is a woman." In charge of the report was Samir's third son, Abdullah, who seemed to be shrewd and capable, the most capable of his sons and his favored successor.

Looking at the melancholy in his son's eyes, Samir shook his head slowly, and then said: "The queen ascends the throne, this is actually nothing, the royal family of this kingdom can manage a lot of things, but the change of power within the family cannot be interfered with, the real problem lies in Nord's official knighthood." A little chill flashed in his eyes.

"So what now?" The worry on Abdullah's face became more and more intense, "Originally, I came here this time, not to plan to talk to that Ben. Is there a showdown with Bourbon? Now there's one more Nord. Firth, and became an official knight, I'm afraid it's not easy to do, after all, the Blackwater Knights are also very powerful, and I heard that in the army of the Kingdom of Angesaland, the influence of the Blackwater Knights is no less than that of the royal family. ”

"Don't panic," Samir shook his head, "the worst is not yet the worst, even if he becomes a Blackwater Knight, he is just an ordinary member. And the place where we are at the intersection is very important to Angesaland today, black gold oil has become an indispensable part of the steam industry, for the Angesaland royal family and cabinet, the Blackwater Knights are indispensable, but our opinion is also very important, not to mention the federation in the New World. Didn't you get in touch with us? Their purpose, which I know very well, can be used as a bargaining chip with Angesaland at a critical moment. ”

"And Anglosalan?" Abdullah was a little surprised. "Isn't it the Hefuss family?"

"If you negotiate with the upper echelons of the kingdom and then negotiate with the Firth family, I believe the chances of success will be higher," Samir smiled confidently. "As I said earlier, the royal family's interference within the family is limited, and the place of convergence is not in the kingdom itself after all. As long as we get the approval of the kingdom, the power of the Firth family cannot be extended to our base camp, of course, there are still many details to be discussed, what you have to do now is to find out the big and small news of Shadow City in this month, and do not miss a single thing. ”

"Yes!" Abdullah nodded, looking at the smile on his father's face, the panic in his heart finally calmed down a lot, his family, being able to rise in the intersection of the place, of course, had the initial support of the Firth family, but in his opinion, it was more his father's ability, and it was his father's fearless composure that could establish a huge industry.

"All of this is our own hard work, how can we be picked up by the Firth family? Even if they give a little favor at the beginning, then we can return some money at most, if we want to take our family's inheritance, it will cost our lives, even if we are facing the Blackwater Knights, we have to fight! ”

With such thoughts, Abdullah strengthened his determination, but he didn't think that if Su Yan hadn't chosen Samir in the first place, not to mention the start-up capital, even Samir himself would have become a slightly larger trader at most, and through the place of intersection, the goods of the Golden Continent and the Stim Continent would not have been able to go to the point where they are today.

What's more, the property they are in charge of is still the property of the Firth family in legal terms.

"Yes, you have to have that drive!" Noticing the change in his son's demeanor, Samir was very pleased, "I have worked hard in this life, relying on myself, but the huge foundation I have accumulated will still be passed on to you after all, you are my most optimistic heir, you must have your own responsibility, although it is surprising that Nord became an official knight, but we were originally going to have a showdown, so we were ready to anger Vivien's woman, she is also an official knight, so I have already arranged this aspect, you just need to act according to the plan, it really can't, You can also make a false deal with the snake first, and when you go back, you can directly announce the founding of the country, and then contact the surrounding tribes, plus the support of Burkitan and the New World Federation, even if you can't convince the Anglosaran royal family, what does it matter? ”

"Yes, it's still my father who thinks about it!" Abdullah suddenly realized that he had touched the great strategy of the family, "Then as soon as I enter the city, I will start collecting information." ”

"Very well, then this matter will be left to you," Samir waved his hand, "I have already made arrangements in the city, there is a special agency for collecting intelligence, although it is not perfect, and in order not to be discovered by the Firth family, some of the power is hidden, but the major events that have happened in this month, there will be some gains, what you have to do is to familiarize yourself with the operation of this department, understand." ”

"Yes!" Abdullah was very excited, feeling his father's trust in him and the possibility of taking power, and couldn't help but look forward to it, fantasizing about the scene when his party entered the city, he would be good at dancing with long sleeves, contacting all parties, and becoming famous.

It's just that before his thoughts could ferment further, he was interrupted by someone who suddenly blocked the way.

"Samir, Lord Nord sent me here to wait for you." The man who stood in the way also drove a steam car, and when he spoke, he did not have the slightest respect for the Samir father and son, who had a huge fortune, and was the current butler of the Firth family, little Albert.

"How do you know our itinerary?" Samir got out of the car and looked at Albert, who was dressed well, with a cold look in his eyes, "It seems that the Firth family doesn't want to sit still, so they sent someone to spy on me, or okay, I'll go visit Nord. Firth, make it clear to him, Abdullah, don't panic. ”

The sudden arrival of the roadblock made Abdullah's mood fluctuate and he became worried again.

"Do you think the old man is spying on you?" Little Albert listened to Samir's words, but felt amused, "What is the status of my lord now?" Still need to meet a little person like you? ”

"Oh? Deliberately humiliating me? Samir's eyes flashed coldly, "Okay, don't use such words to try to test me, you lead the way, I'm a little person?" Hehe, now in the Intersection of Places, how many people dare to talk to me like that? You are just a housekeeper, it is enough to do your own thing, in this case, even if it is the Firth family behind you, few people are qualified to say it. ”

These words, full of domineering, made Abdullah regain his composure, and thinking of his father's authority in the intersection land, his waist straightened a lot.

Little Albert shook his head and sighed helplessly: "It's really pitiful that your horizons are only so big." Then there was no longer any attempt to correct it, because the facts would tell the father and son what kind of existence they were up against.

But these words undoubtedly offended Samir's majesty, so that the two strong guards in the same car glared at little Albert and made a gesture, but Samir stopped them: "Don't worry about such a person, we are not in the same position as him." ”

So, with this pride, Samir and his son followed little Albert and changed direction, no longer heading towards Shadow City, but towards Firth Manor.

However, before arriving at the manor, Samir sensed that something was wrong.

"There are a lot of cars on this road, and I see a lot of old family crests on them." Abdullah made the same discovery.

It is no wonder, for the road to Firth Manor is now full of large and small carriages and steam cars, and the people outside the cars all look anxious, as if they are in a hurry to do something.

It's just that, although there are horse-drawn carriages everywhere on the road, I can see little Albert's car coming, but none of the cars dare to stand in the way, and all of them take the initiative to get out of the way.

"Father, this is not right! Very wrong! After looking through the car window for a while, Abdullah was completely panicked, "I just saw a few councilors, and a lot of nobles, and even a few counts on the continent of Stim have appeared, what the hell is going on?" ”

"I miscalculated!" Samir recognized more people, and he also realized the problem inside, "News! Information! We've done too little in this regard, the organization used to gather intelligence is too small, I'm afraid that something has changed on the side of the Firth family in this month, but we don't know anything about it, it's very deadly! ”

Seeing that his father's face changed, Abdullah was even more at a loss: "Then what to do now, father, you must have a way, you must have thought of this possibility a long time ago, right?" We ......"

These words made Samir's face more and more gloomy, especially when the car he was riding in came to the gate of the manor and saw several carriages with the family crests of several great nobles.

"Samir, you're here too!" Suddenly, a voice came from outside the car, calling Samir's mind back, and he followed the sound to see that it was a rich man, not young.

Soon, Samir recognized the other party and nodded in greeting: "Count Bain, you are here too." ”

"Of course," the fat man's face had a hint of smugness, "you and I are both old members of the Firth family, and we are different from everyone else, so we can go directly to the manor."
