"Your Majesty, I am very grateful for your support and help to me. But if you do, will it ...... Parliamentarians will certainly have a lot of opinions about what you're doing. Xu Yi asked thoughtfully.

Lampari XIII glanced at Xu Yi: "What? Do you really want to be stripped of your nobility?"

Xu Yi shrugged his shoulders: "I don't really attach much importance to the status of nobility, and if I am deprived, I will be deprived." The problem is that your Majesty's actions may cause the noble council to be dissatisfied with you, because I am only a viscount, so it doesn't seem worth it. ”

"I just think it's worth it. Lampari XIII shook his head slowly, glanced at Xu Yi meaningfully, and asked in a deep voice: "Xu Yi, if I ignore this matter today, and you are deprived of your noble status, and then you are taken back to your private territory and some privileges that only nobles have, what will you do next?"

"Don't do it. Xu Yi shook his head and said. "I can't resist the decisions of the Council of Nobles, and if they have to, I'll honestly hand over my domains and privileges. ”

"And what about the New Flying Chamber of Commerce, and what are you going to do?" asked Lampari XIII.

"I can go from nothing to the point where I can develop the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce to this point, so on the basis of the current situation, of course, I have enough confidence to find another place to develop again. Xu Yi smiled confidently: "It doesn't matter where it is, as long as I'm still here, the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce will still be there." ”

"You're very confident. Lampari XIII nodded approvingly. "But you don't think it's important where you develop, but I think it's very important. The new flying chamber of commerce is such an important thing. If I let it slip away from our Lampari Kingdom, then I will be a Kingdom sinner. ”

Xu Yi was stunned: "Your Majesty, I didn't expect you to value our Xinfei Chamber of Commerce so much." ”

"How could I not value it?" Lampari XIII patted the stack of texts beside him. "There are countless numbers and examples here that prove that the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce has played a very positive role in the development of the kingdom, if I don't value it, then what qualifications do I have to be this king?"

Xu Yi smiled, and rolled his eyes: "Your Majesty, since you value our Xinfei Chamber of Commerce so much, do you want to give us a little more privilege?"

Lampari XIII was a little amused: "You kid is quite good at climbing the pole, but I'll give you a chance." Say, what privilege do you want? if it makes sense. I can promise you. ”

I didn't expect Lampari XIII to be so easy to talk to. Xu Yi was overjoyed in his heart, and hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, although you have previously approved our Xinfei Chamber of Commerce to have the right to trade freely, I don't think this right is enough. ”

"Oh, what else do you need?"

"Hmm...... This right of free trade allows our chamber of commerce to have the right to trade with other countries and regions outside the kingdom at will. However, trade with enemy countries was strictly forbidden. So ......"

Lampari XIII narrowed his eyes: "What? Do you still want to do business with the Kingdom of Sark? Do you still think that the Kingdom of Sark is not strong enough, do you want to give them some money to help them become stronger?"

"Of course not. Xu Yi immediately shook his head. "陛xià. Although we have always adopted a win-win strategy to do business with each other. But for the business itself, it is not difficult to make money purely from the other party. Trade with the Kingdom of Sark. Instead of helping the kingdom become stronger, it can drain their resources and money through these trades, weakening their strength. ”

"Really?" Lampari XIII was shocked and asked curiously, "How?"

"Let's give you an example. For example, if our Chamber of Commerce sells a magic air conditioner to the Kingdom of Sark, do you think this will improve their strength?"

"Of course not. Lampari XIII shook his head. "This kind of thing can only be used for daily use, and it obviously doesn't help the strength of the entire kingdom. ”

"But our Chamber of Commerce's latest magic air conditioner is currently priced at twenty-eight gold coins, and selling one to the Sark Kingdom is equivalent to earning twenty-eight gold coins from the Sark Kingdom. This is equivalent to weakening the funds of the Kingdom of Sark and strengthening the strength of our Chamber of Commerce. ”

Lampari XIII pondered for a moment and nodded slightly: "I probably understand what you mean. But the Kingdom of Sark will not be so stupid, what you want to sell them, they will want, and there will be restrictions on this. ”

Xu Yihe smiled and said, "Your Majesty, I think even you should know about smuggling, right?"

Lampari XIII's face sank, and he snorted coldly: "You, the president of the Chamber of Commerce, are so bold to mention smuggling in front of me!"

Xu Yi was not afraid at all, and still said with a hippie smile: "Your Majesty, I not only want to mention smuggling in front of you, but the privilege I want to ask you for this time is about smuggling?"

Lampari XIII was immediately happy: "What? Do you Xinfei Chamber of Commerce also want to smuggle?"

"That's right. But what we want is legal smuggling. ”

"What's legal about smuggling, are you kidding?" said Lampari XIII, glaring at Xu Yi.

"Absolutely. Xu Yi put away his smile and said, "As long as it is smuggling under the supervision and approval of Your Majesty, it is naturally legal." ”

Seeing that Xu Yi was not joking, Lampari XIII pondered for a moment, and suddenly glanced at Xu Yi, revealing a slightly sly smile.

"President Xu, since you are a businessman, you should know what price you must pay if you want to get any benefits, right?"

Xu Yi smiled bitterly and spread his hands: "Your Majesty, I am here, how do you want to slaughter, please feel free." ”

Lampari XIII laughed: "Then you're welcome." ”

###

When Xu Yi returned to the courtyard, Viscount Leslie and Baron Haynas were waiting here.

Seeing Xu Yi, both of them had strange expressions on their faces.

Although not many people saw what happened in the noble council in the morning, it was no secret to the aristocratic circle of Anweimar City that no matter what happened to the noble council, let alone such an amazing scene.

His Majesty the King actually took action in person and forcibly retained Xu Yi's viscount title from the hands of the noble council!

The two royal decrees announced by Director Delmar in public in the noble council were no different from the two slaps in the face of the noble council in the eyes of all the nobles in the city.

Although in the hundreds of years since the founding of the Lampari Kingdom, there have been many times when the king and the noble council have disagreed and even directly clashed, but it is still rare to directly cut the face of the noble council in public like this time.

His Majesty the King is simply telling everyone that no one else is allowed to do anything to Xu Yi.

Prior to this, although many people also knew that His Majesty the King attached great importance to Xu Yi and the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, they never thought that His Majesty would attach such importance to Xu Yi and the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, and even cut the face of the noble council mercilessly.

Just this one incident immediately made Xu Yi the most high-profile person in the aristocratic circle of the Lampari Kingdom, which made countless people envious.

However, Viscount Leslie and Baron Hainas looked at Xu Yi, but they didn't look very happy on their faces.

"Xu Yi, I think that in fact, you were used by His Majesty the King. Baron Haynas shook his head and sighed, "Although it is very majestic to protect you from the hands of the noble council in this way, it can also guarantee that no one will dare to attack you lightly in the future." But in this way, the guys of the noble council will definitely hate you to the core, and will definitely trouble you again in the future. ”

Xu Yi smiled and said, "Do you think that without this matter, they wouldn't have troubled me? The resolution at the council this time was not decided suddenly. ”

Baron Haynas thought for a moment, then smiled and said, "That's right, most of the old men in the Noble Council are on Prince Eric's side, and if they want to deal with you, that's for sure." His Majesty the King is taking advantage of you, probably because he wants to take this opportunity to warn them. ”

"So, if you are used, you can use it. You know, even if many people want to be used by His Majesty, they don't have the qualifications to do so. ”

"You're very open-minded. Viscount Leslie couldn't help but laugh. "I was worried that you would be discouraged by this incident, and that you would be discouraged by disappointment, but now it seems that you have not been affected at all, so I am relieved. ”

"It wouldn't be right to say that it wasn't affected at all. Xu Yi shook his head and sighed lightly: "At least I have a clear understanding of this matter, that is, whether I want to or not, I have been branded with the brand of Her Royal Highness the Princess. Just like Leslie, no matter what you think in your heart, you will still be considered by everyone to be a member of the Stark family. ”

Viscount Leslie smiled and shook his head: "Not only that, if I succeed in cooperating with your Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, then everyone will definitely be regarded as the Stark family's position has changed." So the ripple effect is sure to be very interesting. ”

Xu Yi and Baron Hainas looked at him in surprise, and Baron Hainas couldn't help but say, "Hey, Leslie, you didn't think of this to do this on purpose, right?"

Viscount Leslie smiled but did not answer.

Xu Yi frowned and said, "Leslie, do you really want to do this, openly confronting the family?"

"Why not?" said Viscount Leslie. "Wouldn't it be a waste of my status as the eldest son of the family if I didn't do these things before I was kicked out of the house?"

Seeing the self-deprecating smile on the corner of Viscount Leslie's mouth, Xu Yi and Baron Haynas glanced at each other, and they both saw the helplessness in each other's eyes.

They knew very well that once Viscount Leslie decided on something, he would never change it lightly by others.

And looking at his appearance, it is obvious that he has already planned to do this, so he will not be swayed by others.

But the problem is that even if he is the eldest son of the Stark family, it is still self-defeating to confront the entire Stark family in this way. (To be continued......)
