"Although Henas had already told me in advance, I was surprised to see you coming. Xu Yi looked at Sevigny opposite for a moment, and couldn't help but shake his head.

"What, President Xu, aren't you welcome me here?" Sevigny smiled slightly, although his skin had become a little rougher because he had been in the northern part of the kingdom some time ago, but the expression on his face was as gentle and kind as ever.

"How could it be. Xu Yi hurriedly denied it. "I almost jumped for joy when I learned that you were coming to take over as Lord of Bonta City! ”

Sevini smiled and shook his head, "I don't need to ask about this, I believe you should welcome me very much, otherwise, I will ask my father to come to Bonta City, wouldn't it be self-inflicted?"

After finishing speaking, Sevigny suddenly found that his word was a little **, and quickly coughed lightly, paused, and stretched out his hand to Xu Yi: "In short, President Xu, I am now the new city lord of Bangta City, and you, as the most important business leader in Bangta City, hope that we can cooperate well in the future." ”

Xu Yifu shook his head with a smile, and stretched out his hand to shake Sevigny's hand: "Your Royal Highness, don't you think it's a bit redundant for you to say these words to me? I said before when you were here that if you were the lord of Bunta, it would be easier for us to work together. Now that this dream has come true, I am very happy. ”

Sevigny smiled slightly: "Count Stark may not have any opinion on your words, but President Xu, don't forget. Count Satsuma if you know that you had this idea before when he was the lord of the castle. It will definitely be very unhappy with you. ”

Xu Yi laughed: "How could Count Satsuma be such a stingy person." Besides. Even he must be very happy to see this situation now, right?"

"Well, a month and a half ago, when I left the city of Thurwell after my expedition to the north of the kingdom, the Count of Satsuma spoke to me about the situation in the city of Bonta. He told me that he had always had some regrets, and if he had been able to hold on to the position of the lord of Bang Ta City for a longer period of time, the development of Bang Ta City would not have been hindered and delayed for so long. Now I'm going to take over as the lord of the city. He must have been very happy to see it, too. ”

"Of course, when it comes to caring about the development of Bonta City, Count Satsuma is more profound than anyone, after all, he has been the lord of the city here for more than ten years. Even now, when I talk to many people in Buntar City, they still remember Count Satsuma and even praise him as the best lord of Buntar City has ever seen. Xu also affirmed authenticity.

"Oh? That's stressing me out. Severny laughed. "I'm so much younger than Count Satsuma, do you think the people of Bunta City will accept me?"

"Rest assured, the people of Bonta City are very simple. Whoever can make their lives better, they will support them. Even if you don't care about the identity of your Royal Highness. At least...... You wouldn't be any less popular than Earl Stark, would you?"

Hearing Xu Yi's evaluation of Count Stark, Sevini was silent for a while, shook his head lightly and sighed: "Count Stark himself is actually not bad, but his position dictates that he can only take the way he needs. And because of his lack of achievements in the city of Bonta this year, I am afraid that after returning this time, he will not have a good time in the future. ”

Xu Yi was slightly stunned: "Isn't it very sad? Isn't he already the city lord of Loren City, it is said that Loren City is so much bigger than Bangta City, he is considered a promotion, how can he be sad?"

"It doesn't look like you're getting the full picture. Sevigny shook his head and said, "Since you know that I have taken over as the lord of Bonta City this time, then you must know that my two royal brothers will also serve as the city lords of the two cities, and the city chosen by King Brother Eric is Loren City." ”

Xu Yi was stunned: "Then what is Earl Stark going to do?"

"Do you know that Count Stark is going to take over as Lord of Loren City from Haynas?" asked Sevigny.

"Yes, just as you will come to take over as the lord of Bonta City this time, I have listened to Hainas tell me. Xu Yi nodded and replied.

"No wonder you don't know the latest changes. In fact, the news that Count Stark had taken over as Lord of Loren City was only a preliminary decision of the Kingdom Council, but not a final decision. Three days ago, Brother Eric chose to go to Loren City to serve as the city lord, and Count Stark was temporarily idle and would make arrangements later. ”

Xu Yi frowned slightly: "Then Count Stark has no opinion?"

"He may have it personally, but it's actually the Stark family's decision, so his personal opinion doesn't make sense. I think...... You should understand why the Stark family did this, right?" asked Sevigny.

Xu Yi smiled bitterly and nodded: "Of course I understand." It seems that the Stark family is determined to announce to everyone that they want to support His Royal Highness Prince Eric. Then again, Your Highness, what about the people who support you, is there no one as determined as the Stark family?"

"Isn't that you?" Sevini winked at Xu Yi.

Xu Yi was stunned for a moment, and then sneered: "Your Royal Highness, you really know how to joke." I'm just a small businessman, and no matter how strong I support you, what influence can I have? ”

Sevini pursed his lips and smiled, "President Xu, don't underestimate yourself too much. Even Earl Stark and I were very supportive of you when we were doing the handover, claiming that if it weren't for our differences, he would have been very supportive of you. I admire the ability of even Earl Stark to impress you in just one year. ”

"Oh, Count Stark said something like that?" Xu was also a little surprised. "I thought he would hate me to death. ”

"You're wrong about him. Severny shook his head slightly. "Actually, personally, I still appreciate Earl Stark. He's targeting you everywhere just because of the Stark family's decisions, which are at best a matter of position. When he talked to me, he analyzed the situation in Bangta City to me in great detail, indicating that the development of Bangta City is now closely related to the development and even every move of your Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, and even told me that if you want Bangta City to achieve better development, you must give strong support to your Xinfei Chamber of Commerce. ”

"That's not right, right?" Xu Yi frowned slightly. "Even if he is no longer the lord of Bonta City, his position will not change, right? Why would he praise me and propose such a proposal to you? Does he want to change his position, betray his family, and support you?"

"It's not something I know. Sevini shook his head. Anyway, that's what he said. ”

Xu Yi looked down and thought for a while, but he didn't have the slightest clue, so he had to shake his head and not think about this question, and asked Sevigny: "Okay, beloved Royal Highness, now that you have officially become the new city lord of our Bangta City, what do you plan to do next?"

Sevini smiled slightly, completely to Xu Yi's surprise, and even half squatted down to salute Xu Yi, and chuckled: "Your Excellency Viscount Xu Yi, regarding how to govern and develop Bangta City, I also hope that you can give me the greatest support and construction without hesitation." ”

Xu Yi was stunned: "Hey, you are the city lord, okay?"

Sevini winked at Xu Yi again, and there was a hint of naughtiness in his smile.

"But whether it is my father, the Count of Satsuma and the two former city lords of Stark, they have all solemnly explained to me that regarding the development of Bangta City, you must listen carefully to your opinion, the president of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, so President Xu, you must bear this responsibility. ”

Seeing the joy from the bottom of Sevigny's smile, Xu Yi couldn't help but shake his head, and he didn't know what to say for a while.

###

The news of Her Royal Highness Sevigny's appointment as lord of Bonta was immediately publicized by the daily newspaper Bonta.

On the day of this news, the people of Bonta City suddenly discovered that the city seemed to become lively overnight, and the streets of Bonta City, which had been depressed for a year due to the policy of suppressing commerce and agriculture promulgated by Earl Stark, seemed to be prosperous again in the blink of an eye.

Countless shops that were forced or voluntarily closed before seemed to have been agreed, and reopened on the same day, and countless people flowed on the streets in an instant.

Although it is not as prosperous as the previous two years, it is no longer as depressed and desolate as when Earl Stark was the lord of the city.

It's just that the city lord has changed, but the entire Bangta City seems to have changed its appearance in an instant and become vibrant again.

Under these circumstances, it is natural that few people have noticed that the "Bonta Daily" announced that Her Royal Highness the Royal Highness of Sevigny had succeeded Earl Stark as the new lord of Bonta City, and at the same time announced another piece of news.

His Royal Highness Prince Eric serves as Lord of Loren City.

And almost all of them naturally ignore some of the explanations and related analyses of the two appointments in the Bonta Daily.

According to the information obtained by the "Bonta Daily", the reason why His Majesty the King unexpectedly made His Royal Highness Prince Eric and His Royal Highness the Princess of Sevinny as the lords of Loren and Bonta respectively, was actually to test the ruling ability of the two of them and prepare for the determination of the heir to the throne.

If either of them can do a good job in the position of city lord, then they will naturally get extra points in the heart of the king, and add chips to the king's final decision on who will take over the throne.

So from the point of view of the people of Bonta City, this is just a change of city lord, but if you look at it from a long-term perspective, it is very likely that it will determine the next king of the Lampari Kingdom.

As for His Royal Highness Prince Mifam, who was not mentioned in another "Bonta Daily", I don't know why, it was directly ignored by everyone...... (To be continued......)
