Chapter 80: The Familiar Widow

"No, it's all gone!" Aaron waved his hand, not taking the list of slips from Zabas.

Zabas immediately understood what he meant, nodded his head slightly, and then turned his face and said with a smile: "My lord, a young lady asked to see you!"

"Got it!" Aaron replied and walked out of the room.

The series of events in which Gibson and his son were killed and the leaders of the small forces were killed will inevitably cause a lot of shock in the Salz region in the coming days. None of this will have much of a negative impact on Aaron, though. In the past, the outside world only knew that the lord of Kingston was a bold, talented, kind and benevolent lord.

He was so merciful that his father often bullied the market outside and forcibly seized people's wealth without caring about it. Now, the outside world's impression of him must have changed dramatically, and of course this outside world refers to those in the chambers of commerce, trade unions and trade associations. In the future, the order in Kingston will inevitably be more stable than it is now, and Zabas's policy ideas will certainly not be subject to more resistance.

Just a month ago, Aaron had resigned from the Duke as captain to concentrate on the development of the Kingston Territory. The alchemist's research work also began, but the baron told them to carry out the research work after investing a lot of money, and did not give them any task to produce alchemical equipment.

The situation on the mainland is still in a very delicate stage, with small frictions continuing, but large-scale corps battles have occurred only sporadically three or four times in the past two years. The Holy See's attitude towards Aragon seems to have softened, but it still sends personnel to assist the Empire of Light in suppressing Alagon, as if waiting for something to happen before further action can be taken.

As the sun sets, the lord's mansion is gilded with a golden glow at dusk.

Aaron grabbed a tall glass glass of fragrant wine from a plate brought by a black slave and walked down the hall.

As soon as he entered the hall, Aaron found that there were already seven or eight people seated in the hall, but except for one Kingston who was specially responsible for entertaining guests, the rest were all fresh faces.

"Morgan Consortium, Ivanova, Ivanova, I'm sorry to disturb your rest!" a noble woman with long blond hair in a shawl, a proud figure, and the appearance of a young woman stood up, neatly stretched out her right hand and introduced herself to Aaron with a smile.

"Hello!" Although Aaron didn't care about the other party's proud figure, his eyes still inevitably glanced at the other party's tall chest.

The Morgan consortium, which dominates nearly half of the number of exchanges in Memphis City, has huge financial resources that rival the wealth of the country. At this time, they came to the door, and the answer was about to come out.

After the two sides sat down, Ivanova preemptively identified herself: "We are from Memphis, and this time I am here on behalf of Mr. Hans in the hope that Your Excellency can provide protection for the industries we invest in the Salz region!"

"I provide you with protection, oh, noble lady, I don't understand what you mean!" Aran asked with a smile.

"Some time ago, the industries and outlets of the Bath business group in the Salz region were smashed and destroyed by some unknown forces before they had time to open up the situation. I don't know if that's the case!"

"Yes, it seems that Morgan's information is not simple, but you know what happened not long ago. Let's get straight to the point, you have absolutely no problem getting a piece of the Salz pie, but you have to follow the rules here, otherwise I won't be able to help you if anything happens!"

Aaron's meaning is very clear, as long as you don't destroy the original order here, you can do whatever you like. Now Kingston can attract such powerful organizations as the Morgan Consortium and the Bath Business Group, which Aaron did not expect.

"You already know my attitude, you can talk to the chairman about the specific matters. "In business, Aaron doesn't understand and doesn't have the energy to learn.

"On behalf of Mr. Hans, I thank Your Excellency!" Ivanova did not seem to be a businessman, but she was definitely the most authoritative of the seven.

Aaron nodded a few times, and was about to leave to rush back to the magical forest, when suddenly a picture flashed through his mind: outside Memphis, masked thieves besieged a woman.

"Hey, I think I've seen you somewhere!" said Aaron, who stopped and turned to Ivanova beside him.

"Yes, heh, no wonder I felt so kind when I first saw you, maybe we really met somewhere!" *** smiled charmingly.

"Maybe!" Aaron took another step.

"Your Excellency!"

"Huh?"

"Is it convenient to go out for a walk? I have some personal questions for you!" Ivanova stood up, her golden hair spilling down her shoulders at once, and the charm of maturity and fatal allure continued to be released.

"I'm sorry, ma'am, maybe Mr. Zabas can answer your question......" Alun politely declined Ivanova's invitation and turned away.

"What a hateful fellow. Ivanova scolded hatefully in her heart.

In the years that followed, as long as Alun was outside of the Enchanted Forest, Ivanova would always find him and fight with the Baron for a chance to be alone.

For this question, Aaron can't explain why the other party is pestering him. If it is official, with the strength of the Morgan consortium, it may not be able to prevent the other party from establishing a branch in the Salz region and penetrating various industries. I'm afraid that the local forces are not so bold as to dare to move the people of the Morgan consortium. After all, Morgan and Bath are not organizations of the same level.

If it comes to private matters, I don't seem to have anything else to contact except that she resembles the woman I saw last time outside Memphis City who was besieged by thieves! After Zabas's investigation, Aaron learned the specific information about Ivanova.

Ivanova, thirty years old, came from a declining aristocratic family. When she was seventeen years old, she married a farmer in his eighties, with the status of aristocrats, but on the night of the wedding banquet, the groom's old man was full of blood, and he could not calm down for a while and his heart beat violently and died. Ivanova also logically inherited the legacy of the childless old man under her knees. Three years ago, Ivanova's farm was held accountable by the Memphis Merchant Council, but was later rescued by the Morgan consortium.

"My lord, the batch of fire crystals you brought back last time, except for Viscount Amare, no one can swallow that batch of fire crystals at one time. Maybe Ms. Ivanova can get a good offer there!" Zabas said.

"Isn't there anyone who has the strength to take it in exchange for something?" said Aaron's brow.

"Yes, the price of fire quartl is very high, and the matter cannot be publicized, so I have very limited contact. Zabas said helplessly.

"Well, it looks like Ivanova has to make a trip. Well, you don't have to worry about that. Aaron.

At noon, the baron rode through dozens of shouting streets with people and cars in a carriage, and finally stopped in front of a two-story building tens of meters high.

Arun was also the first to return to the Morgan consortium's branch in the Salz region. The wide walls and high pointed tops are rich in Memphis Native architecture. Among them, a flag with the logo of the Morgan Consortium was waving in the wind, and several well-dressed gentlemen with dignified faces stood in front of the seven-meter-high mahogany gate.

The land on one side of the street has been bought by the Morgan consortium and a row of construction shops has been built, and the land on the other side of the road has not been bought at some point, and many construction workers are busy climbing up and down.

"The influence of this Morgan consortium can be seen from this!" said Allen to Morgan in his heart.

"Hey, Aaron, you're here!" said Ivanova, who had been in contact many times, greeted warmly, and at the moment she was discussing something with several construction leaders.

The Morgan branch occupies a large area and will certainly be imposing when the whole is completed in the future. Originally, it would have taken more than a year to do such a large amount of construction work at the earliest, but the financial strength of the Morgan consortium was quickly explained here. The construction team is not an ordinary construction team, and the Morgan consortium has its own magic construction team. These builders are not only proficient in low-to-medium ordinary magic, but also proficient in architecture.

In less than a month after the groundbreaking, the overall completion was completed by nearly seventy percent, and it is estimated that it will be completed in half a month. The next renovation is estimated to take little time for the next page of these guys' tinkering.

Alan nodded slightly, and stood quietly in front of the door of a detached building that had been completed and largely renovated in the Morgan branch, looking at the busy Ivanova.

"This woman doesn't look like an ordinary aristocratic beauty, and it seems that the hard-working spirit of the commoner can be seen in her. Aaron mused.

In the midst of the busyness, Ivanova, who was sweaty and dirty around her, was nothing less than a beautiful scenery in the sand, gravel and earth. The outfit that is not too conspicuous on anyone is so eye-catching on her. The hot weather, coupled with Ivanova's dress in short sleeves and suspender pants today, the bronzed skin exposed to the air and the proud figure and perfect curves buried under the clothes made the men present like the scorching sun and full of energy.

A pair of proudly erect big Roshan has become a pleasing sight for the hard-working workers on the construction site, with slender figures, strong and powerful thighs and straight round plump buttocks, all of which make those men dry and nameless.

"I didn't think this Ivanova was any different from ordinary ladies before, but today it seems to have a different flavor!" Alan sighed lightly.

"Hey Aaron, come on!" Ivanova said as she left the busy construction site, greeted Aaron with a familiar attitude, and threw a bottle full of cool juice.

Pop, Aaron took the juice and didn't see it, he directly untied the rope that bound the bottle cap, and drank the juice in a few sips.

In this process, Ivanova stared at him intently, looking like a girl with spring and affection. Aaron's peach blossom luck was not only like this, Ivanova quickly took out another bottle of juice and threw it into Aaron's hand, and sat down on the wood next to Aaron and drank the refreshing juice happily.

This special treatment simply made the eyes of the ordinary craftsmen and magic craftsmen around him red. If eyes could kill, Aaron would have died a million times.

During this period of contact, most of the people at the nearby construction site knew that Ivanova was a widow, and this was not something for them to pay attention to. To his great surprise, this Ivanova would come to her as soon as she learned that the lord had returned to the town, which was obviously too warm and open. It would be fine if she was a young girl who had not yet married, but the problem was that she was a widow.

One is the most influential aristocrat in the Salz region, and the other is a beautiful widow who has been widowed for many years, which can't help but remind these people of some bad aspects, such as the seduction of a beautiful little widow by a powerful lord, or the voluntary dedication of a hungry widow to a big man............

In fact, although Aaron is still a little cold and unconcerned about beautiful women, he is much more enthusiastic than before. The ease of life has led him to become interested in beautiful things since his last visit to Viscount Amare's Kriz region. Of course, this beautiful thing naturally includes beautiful women.

For Ivanova, Aaron still attaches more importance to it, after all, it is a member of the Morgan consortium. With a consortium of this size stationed in Kingston, the prospects for development are already foreseeable.
