On a sunny afternoon, Wang Xiaotian's carriage slowly walked on the streets of Boer City, and the shock absorber developed by Gray Stone City made the carriage ride a comfortable enjoyment, and the rhythmic sound between the wheel and the ground made a rhythmic sound, which was a pleasant movement in Wang Xiaotian's ears, but in some people's ears, it was a painful torture.

Wang Xiaotian sat calmly in the car, eating a piece of "egg tart" in his mouth, Wang Xiaotian, who was used to eating coarse grains in the north, finally came to a civilized society, he naturally did not treat himself badly, a golden egg tart was sprinkled with some sesame seeds, and the fermented bread with rich taste had a sense of enjoyment that melted in his mouth when he bit into it.

"Well, this Dick, are their cooks so good!" sighed sincerely, Wang Xiaotian's mood became more and more happy.

But there are always people in this world who are not very happy.

When Wang Xiaotian was happily wandering the streets.

Inside the embassy of the Wallen family.

The so-called "miner's family" was sitting opposite Sir Norman, like those great nobles who came and went in Magnoria, always dressed appropriately, just like now he was casually holding a special tobacco from the Greystone City [Botanical Garden], and the gray-white waistcoat and white shirt looked like a very polite gentleman this spring.

Just as a certain lyric says, "Try to act like you don't care, and frequently expose the self-deceitful, the more you disguise it, the more profound it becomes", although Sico is very indifferent, but his inadvertent act of turning a gemstone ring on the ring finger of his left hand reveals his inner unpeace.

Opposite him.

There was a reserved smile on Sir Norman's battered face, a smile that was just the right one to give a sense of intimacy, but a closer look reveals that the smile had a haughty alienation in it.

He is a nobleman of Magnoria, a central nobleman from a prosperous capital, he has witnessed the most prosperous place in this country, even if he is sitting in front of a nobleman with a huge wealth, in the eyes of Norman is just a rich man, a hillbilly, the central aristocracy will rarely look at a nobleman in the countryside, this is the pride of Magnoria.

"Lord Sico, don't you know if I have anything to do to help you?" Norman looked at Sico flatly, without a trace of emotional fluctuation in his words, obviously it was just a polite word.

Siko didn't say anything, it is estimated that even if he heard it, he pretended not to understand, as the patriarch of the "miner family", Siko had seen a more embarrassing situation than this.

But so what? Sico knew how to forbear and slowly figure it out at a very young age, just like the aristocrats in the west who ridiculed him as a "dirty miner" and a "ridiculous hillbilly", and now they have two handfuls of grass on their graves in the north.

He is now a giant who controls most of the human resources of the entire western region.

"That's right, Sir Norman, and some of my friends and I have heard of the sincerity of the Valen family coming to Boer City, and I think we can give you a little insignificant help, like ...... Contact some influential people in society to jointly advise the city lord, or urge you to have a head-on conversation with the city lord. ”

Sico squinted his eyes and gently exhaled a puff of smoke, this gentlemanly temperament is difficult to make people feel bad.

It's a country aristocrat with a bit of interest.

Norman looked at Sico's face without moving, picked up a glass of red wine in his hand casually, took a sip, and said, "Oh, what should we do in return?"

Norman, who is middle-aged, knows very well that the transactions between nobles are all red, and you should never expect a free lunch in politics, if you eat that lunch greedily, maybe the next moment, the poison in the meal will kill you.

Sico raised his eyebrows, glanced at the nobleman from Magnoria, he smiled, and said pretending to be relaxed: "It's very simple, there has been a little trouble in the city recently, and this trouble needs to meet your 'guide', please introduce me." ”

Sometimes diplomatic rhetoric is so ridiculous.

Norman was very dismissive of the "little trouble" in Sico's words. Even an outsider like him can see very clearly that the situation in Boer City is very tense now, and the gourd in the city lord's mansion doesn't know what medicine is sold, which is not a small trouble.

Seeing Norman quietly take a sip of wine, Sicot didn't have any surprises, after all, some words are okay to deceive fools, and in the face of a shrewd person from Magnoria, the most direct interest is king.

"Lord Norman, to tell you the truth, something happened to a friend of mine named Crane, and now I need to meet with the head of the Ministry of Security, and before that, I have asked the Chamber of Commerce and some nobles to jointly write a "Business Plan for Magnolia", which should allow the Lord of the City to negotiate with you in advance. ”

Sico didn't ink anymore, and directly threw out a plan, which included most of the merchants and nobles on his side, and from the perspective of Magnolia's commercial development, the importance of a friendly attitude towards Magnolia was marked on the side.

To a large extent, such a plan was a pressure from the nobles to the city lord.

It's a risky act.

Sico also knew that it was dangerous to gather most of the nobles to put pressure on the city lord, but he couldn't help it, Crane's arrest might be a trivial matter, but they couldn't afford not to take it seriously.

The city of Bol is clearly trying to set off a political storm.

Prior to this, the city of Boer had set off one political storm after another in the name of commercial engineering, and many people were already a little afraid of this uncertain city of Boer.

For example, a simple construction project could extend to the extent to which the nobility imposed physical restrictions on workers and peasants and the degree of control over material tax cards. And then a trivial thing can cost the nobility a huge wave of power.

Although afterwards, the city of Boer made corresponding compensation and concessions.

But these are the lessons.

Political storms in the city of Boer often set off inadvertently, and then pull down a large number of people in an instant. The nobles have had enough of the losses, and now they are extremely sensitive to the slightest disturbance in Boer City, and the establishment of this security department has made many people smell something different. Some of them were already feeling a gust of wind blowing around them.

This time, the political groups of Xike and their groups can no longer care about giving way to the city lord's edge, they want to have a political game with the city lord's mansion, and some people have already sworn to make the city lord's mansion pay attention to the interests of the nobles, and for this, they do not hesitate to shed blood!
