Chapter 514: Knocking
"Yes, yes, the Michelle family has some property in Francis City, and of course there will be some partners here. North replied with a quick nod, trying to maximize the usable value of the Michelle family.
"Well, that's the best. Jason reached out and patted him on the shoulder with a smile: "I have something I want to ask you for a favor, and I think you and the Michelle family behind you will definitely not refuse." ”
On that day, North was very devastated when he left Wellett's estate, and he didn't know what Jason had told him.
Inside, Villette couldn't help but cover her mouth and said with a smile: "I know that you guy is not well-intentioned, even if the Michelle family is not seriously injured, it can be regarded as hurting the foundation." ”
If the Michelle family does what Jason asks, then the family can only become a third-rate family from now on, but if they reject Jason, or plan to disobey the law, then the Michelle family may be removed from the north.
Jason wasn't Leonidas, he didn't have to be afraid to deal with a person or a family.
Hearing Willet's words, he replied with a very calm expression: "I have never been a broad-minded person, and the Michelle family dares to beat my woman's idea, even if it is because they don't know it in advance, I won't just forget it." "It's like doing a small thing.
"But the Michel family's power in Francis City is no match for Zaogu, even with the addition of his allies, not to mention that his allies are not necessarily responsible for offending Zaogu for them. Wellett reminded with a smile.
"I didn't plan to overthrow Zaogu by the Michel family, I was just having some fun for myself, and I was very depressed in the past few years on the battlefield. Jason had bad intentions and said sadly, "By the way, knock those who have bad intentions." ”
It's too easy for him to deal with Zaogu, just go to the door or find an excuse to transfer him out of Francis City, does he really dare to fight Jason to the end?
He found that these people are simply underbeaten, as long as they don't suppress them for a long time, they want to test Jason's bottom line, if he backs down, then these guys will brazenly want to go further.
On the other side, in a very ornate apartment, Zaogu, who was over half a hundred years old, was leaning back on a chair with a comfortable face, and two handsome maids were gently massaging him.
Zaogu's full name is Zaogu Bang, a few years ago he was just a merchant who once owned a fief for his ancestors, and now he only has a lot of assets, although he has the title of noble title of honorary earl of the kingdom of Lopez, but no one will take it to heart, but he seized the opportunity when Jason was rising, and gambled all his belongings on him while his power was still vulnerable, and turned into a nobleman under Jason.
He even had the opportunity to be in charge of a town, and then he gradually entered the city of Francis, and by a coincidence, Leonidas valued him, entrusted him to temporarily act as the governor of the outer city of Francis during the war.
But the smooth sailing of these years has gradually given him a trace of ambition, looking at the interests at his fingertips, he can't live without things, so he slowly took control of the outer city of Francis in the past two years with the instigation and support of some friends.
Because he felt that with the support of these noble friends, as well as the credit of the past, Leonidas and the others were all disciplined and would not execute a nobleman without authorization, even if Jason was dissatisfied with his behavior later, it would not have too bad consequences, you must know that he had taken care of the outer city more prosperously, and as for the rights of the inner city, he did not dare to touch it at all, because he knew that he did not have the ability.
It's just that he thinks too much, Jason not only wants to move him, but even wants him and his allies to be uprooted, as a negative example, to warn those who have moved their minds that should not be moved.
Even if his ability is outstanding, it is impossible to change Jason's decision, no matter how talented a person is, as long as his ambition can't even control himself, it is not suitable for reuse.
"Your Excellency, Viscount Dona asks to see you. At that moment a servant walked in with his head bowed and said respectfully.
Viscount Dona was one of the people in charge of the business district of the outer city, and was one of the first to persuade Zaogu to secretly control the power of the outer city, and in the end they also succeeded, almost every area had their allies, and even some officers in the outer city defense army were bribed by them, and these people formed a very large network of interests.
This is also one of the reasons why Leonidas and others have not moved their willingness, and the scope of involvement is really large.
Viscount Dona Zaogu opened his eyes suspiciously, usually there would not be too much movement between them without important matters, because this would avoid the possibility of being caught by Leonidas and others.
But why did Viscount Dona rush over in the middle of the day without even giving a message?
Thinking of this, his expression gradually became a little solemn, and he said, "Please, I'll wait for him in the living room." ”
Soon after, Zaogu, who had changed his clothes, hurried to the living room, and there was a middle-aged man sitting in it who was not angry and arrogant, and when he saw him come in, the middle-aged man immediately got up and looked over.
"Viscount Dona, is something wrong? Zaogu first asked him to sit down, then asked solemnly.
Viscount Dona, the middle-aged man, frowned, nodded solemnly, and replied: "We may be in trouble, my family's guards met a group of people on the street this day, although they were all wearing wide robes, but my people still accidentally saw their armor hidden under the robes. ”
Now Zaogu is a little confused, with people coming and going outside the city of Francis, there are mercenary groups everywhere, it should be normal to meet this kind of person, right?
So he asked, "What's wrong with the armor? Isn't this normal in Francis City?"
"But those armors are in the style of the Spartan guards, and there are nearly a hundred such men guarding a man, who do you say, this man be?" said Viscount Dona, wiping the sweat from his forehead, a little desperate and nervous.
Hearing this, Zaogu's face turned white all of a sudden: "It's difficult...... But isn't he still dealing with the aftermath of the war in the Eastern Theater?"
He panicked because they didn't expect Jason to come back so soon, and they weren't ready to face Jason yet.
