Originally, in the city of Divine Radiance, Al had no friendship with the political elite of Saint Teresa. The big names he knew now were only a few people such as Prime Minister Cenarius, Princess Sophia, and Duke Leonard, and if he told these speculations to these people, it would be a hundred harms to himself.

Among them, El's best friendship should be Princess Sophia, but she may be the mastermind behind the scenes, and Al will not be throwing herself into the net when she tells her?

And the Prime Minister of Cenarius, Duke Leonard, is recognized as the confidant of Grievous the Great, and telling them is tantamount to telling the Great. Not to mention the possibility of the Emperor's secret instructions, what good is it for El to expose this conspiracy? He will one day leave Shenghui City and return to the Western Realm, the reward that the Great Emperor may give him is useless, but on the contrary, he will have an additional mortal enemy who hates him to the bone for no reason, and his situation in Shenghui City will be even more dangerous.

In fact, to put it bluntly, Al and the Violet royal family are people who are sitting in the same boat, on the contrary, the Iron Thorn family he represents still has a lot of contradictions with the royal family.

He is not a knight who has made an oath and is loyal to the country, he can throw his head and spill his blood for the sake of the Violet royal family, and at this critical moment, Al first thinks of his own interests.

After thinking for a while, Al said to Little Peter, "Since those gangs have controlled all the doorways, are many people now unemployed vagrants and completely without a livelihood?"

"Yes, as far as I know, many people are hungry now, and if this continues, everyone will not be able to starve to death, and those wolf gangs, tiger gangs, and other gangs will continue to fight. Little Peter replied.

"So little Peter is more familiar with them, and find some of them who are strong, faithful, and honest, and gather them together, and when they are all together, President Sasha will tell you what to do. ”

"Let's find five hundred people first. Al pondered for a moment and decided.

"Young Master Al, do you want to set up a gang, with your prestige, as long as you ascend to the heights, you can definitely call four or five thousand people, and when the time comes, it will be a piece of cake to punch the Wolf Gang, kick the Tiger Gang, and what kind of Bear Gang and Lion Gang, and then dominate the underground world of Shenghui City. ”

"When the time comes, you will be the king of the underworld, and then I will be your prime minister. It's called the Underground Prime Minister, no, it's too ugly, or the Dark Prime Minister? It still doesn't feel good, by the way, it's called the Shadow Prime Minister. ”

"Well, Shadow Prime Minister, that sounds really imposing. Little Peter straightened his chest and said happily, and when it came to dancing with excitement, he seemed to be able to imagine the scene of thousands of great men bowing to him at the same time.

Al patted his head angrily and funny, "What a mess, and the shadow prime minister, and the king of the underground world, children are cranky all day long." ”

He shook his head and said lightly: "Since you are hiding in the shadows, you don't even dare to stand up openly, what kind of king is there to talk about, this city has its own king." ”

Little Peter pursed his lips, "What kind of king, are you talking about the Majesty lying on the bed, didn't you say that the state affairs are now handled by the Prime Minister? Maybe it won't be long before this Holy Radiance City will change the sky." ”

Al looked out the window, his gaze seemed to be far away, "There are only two kings of this Holy Radiance City, but they don't show up often. Because they are often not seen, people think that the lion has no claws and the king is weak. But what they don't know is that no matter how old the lion is, the weight alone can crush the prey, and no matter how powerless the king is, he still has the reason and strength to hold the scepter. ”

"Never underestimate the heart of a king. ”

After seeing Peter off younger, Al found Sasha.

"Do you want to build a carriage and horse shop?", Sasha was taken aback, "Is this necessary? Besides, we have no connections, we are not familiar with the roads, and we have no relevant reputation, how can we compete with those old car and horse shops?"

"You can start with the trade route from Shenghui City to the West, but no matter what, the scale will be expanded first. I've already talked to little Peter, and he'll get 500 or so helpers first, and then he'll keep them on the line. Al said unquestioningly.

"Why do you want so many people?", Sasha subconsciously exclaimed, "Even the largest carriage and horse shop in Shenghui City has thousands of hard laborers at most, and the convoy sent to all parts of the country is only twenty or thirty teams. We recruit so many people at once, most of them eat white rice, and where will we find so many mules and horses in a moment and a half?"

"Mules, horses, donkeys, carriages, and so on must be prepared as soon as possible, and what are you afraid of raising some people to eat? But the scale must be expanded as soon as possible, and I have calculated that the profits of the commercial bank can be sustained. ”

Seeing that Al was so categorical, Sasha knew that he had made up his mind and that there was no possibility of change. He sighed, stopped persuading, and silently withdrew.

Al knew that Sasha might be dissatisfied, and anyone with a discerning eye could see that according to his idea, the carriage and horse company was destined to lose, and it was not a small loss, but a big loss. But Al has his own concerns, which he can't talk to Sasha.

Al walked out of the house, feeling a chill as he was blown by the wind, and he watched as the fallen leaves in the courtyard were swept up by the wind and blown into the distance.

"This is the mountain rain is coming, the wind is full of buildings. He thought silently, and all Al was doing now was to buy himself another raincoat before the heavy rain came, and that was it.

......

As the New Year approaches, the atmosphere of the festival in Shenghui City is getting stronger and stronger. The road is full of celebratory trinkets and religious decorations that symbolize people's good wishes.

At this time, the church, which was originally known for its cleanliness, was also lively. People go to church to confess their sins before the sacred feast, ask for forgiveness from the gods, or pray in the church for a good omen.

In addition to the most famous of the Basilica, there are also many churches of various sizes, both open and hidden. At this moment, in the outermost part of the sanctuary, in a small, remote church, there were many people kneeling in front of the statues, waiting for the confessional room to be vacant, so that they could confess their sins to the priest and wait for the gods' forgiveness.
