Chapter 391: Attention from all sides
The lights in the tavern went out instantly, and for a moment Christopher's men only heard their boss snort and then there was no movement, and when the tavern attendant brought oil lamps to bring a little light to the dimly lit room, the minions of the Tooth Gang saw that their leader was still sitting motionless in his chair, and a well-known assassin in the area playing cards opposite him was impatiently blowing, but Christopher still did not move.
"Damn, don't sit there stupidly, you goddamn idiot, you can't fight or not!"
The Assassin cursed angrily, but soon realized that something was wrong, and Christopher stared blankly at the table as he held the playing cards, motionless like a puppet. When the subordinates on the side quietly touched the leader, a red line appeared on Christopher's neck instantly, the assassin's pupils contracted sharply, and he quickly jumped up and blocked the cloak in front of him, and the next second, Christopher's revelation still slipped down with a sluggish expression, and blood gushed out from the crack in his neck like a fountain under the pressure of the screams of others.
He's dead!
The assassin looked at the scene in disbelief, the toothed ghost Christopher was killed and it was right in front of his eyes, he didn't even have a gap, and the next second the cold of death spread throughout the assassin's body, as if he was going to freeze his soul. The assassin jerked the screaming female behind him and stumbled away.
Damn! What kind of character does Christopher's idiot provoke, being able to kill a person silently in front of him, which is the strength that only high-level assassins have, and I don't want to be mistaken for Christopher's accomplices!
The sheriff of the city quickly rushed to the scene with people after receiving the news, judging from the witnesses and the situation at the scene, the sheriffs could only shake their heads, and Christopher's killer used small stones to break two magic crystal lamps and four oil lamps in the tavern in an instant, and then cut the victim's neck with a knife at the moment when the light dimmed, and the victim was killed before he even screamed in the process. Even one of the Assassins sitting across from Christopher was unaware of the situation. This is definitely the hand of a high-level assassin or even a super-class assassin, and this extremely powerful assassin must be the subordinate of a big man in the Free City.
The killing of Christopher could have been a conflict of interest between the gang, or a warning message for the sake of Liwei.
After a little record, the sheriff also left quickly, I don't know how many cases of dead people happen every day in the free city, and besides, this is very likely to be a dispute between the upper business giants of the free city, and the sheriff can't and dare not interfere in this kind of thing too much. Anyway, Christopher is just a small character, and if he dies, he will die, as long as it doesn't cause too much impact, just wait for him to pass like this.
Christopher's death caused his gang to fall apart, but soon other gangs quickly swallowed up his personnel, something that was all too common for those on the verge of breaking the law in a free city. If it were a normal day, Christopher would not be cared for even if he died a hundred, but this time the death of this insignificant gang leader attracted the attention of some forces hidden in the shadows in Free City.
"A knife killed the other party in an instant, and it didn't even attract the attention of others in a noisy tavern, I have to say that both the technique and the technique are perfectββ"
In the restaurant full of luxurious classical decoration, dozens of young and beautiful maids are naked, exposing their beautiful carcasses to the air, serving diners back and forth with plates, and the darkly dressed red-robed men who do not fit in with the atmosphere of the whole restaurant are standing aside and recounting the news in a cold and merciless voice.
Several figures who are considered to be heads and faces in the Free City are gathering together until the red-robed man finishes speaking. Everyone was still focused on the plate in front of them, without the slightest hint of care, and even hugged the maid next to them into their arms and played with it casually. Finally, when the first diner, a middle-aged man with a sharpened jaw and a temperament like a hunting hyena, put down the knife and fork in his hand, several people in the restaurant seemed to discuss the topic of the red-robed man just now.
"What's that Kerry or something?" asked the young man, who was surrounded by three maids and looked like a playboy, teasing the maids.
"The leader of a small gang is just a trivial ant. β
"It's not a big deal if Christopher dies, your main problem is the identity of the teenager, who can make a deal of more than 500 million riens so casually and has such a powerful assassin as a guard, this young man deserves our wooing. The organizer of the meeting, who is also the owner of this private hotel, said.
On the other side of the table, the arrogant beauty with long red hair and the queen's momentum waved her hand: "I want to correct Your Excellency the 'store manager'." Now the transaction amount is in the billions, and the kid continues to trade. According to estimates, it is estimated that the transaction value will reach about 1.5 billion today. β
"Well, who can tell me that this little guy is not a member of the royal family of the Carl Cermen Empire or the illegitimate son of Mr. Lawrence?"
The fiery red-haired beauty said disdainfully: "The transaction of 1.5 billion riens in one day is so casual that it is estimated that even Mr. Lawrence himself will have to shudder." β
"The Kinsor Chamber of Commerce, the Westphalian family, as well as the Slave Trade Federation and the Blackstone Ring Chamber of Commerce have all sent him invitations to the banquetββI have to admit that this little friend is really a blockbuster. β
The young man dressed as a playboy with the maid in his arms was a little skeptical: "I said that this shouldn't be a big scam, if it were me, I guess I would take the money and run away immediately, tsk~ Think about it, 1.5 billion lien is enough for anyone to squander it for a lifetime." β
"One more thing, this boy named Lelouch had traded more than 100 million riens of gold on the gold exchange after arriving in Free City. When he took the gold out of the spatial ring, the amount was so large that the waiter almost had a heart attack. The red-haired beauty continued: "And the various chambers of commerce also went to the warehouse to check the goods, it is indeed extremely rare high-purity ores and forging materials, many of which are good things with a price, so I don't think it's a scam." β
The playboy finally gave in at this time: "So we should also send an invitation to this rich young master who came out of nowhere." β
The other people present also nodded, and the organizer of the meeting, the 'store manager', also spoke at this time: "In any case, judging from the information gathered so far, this young man must be the spokesperson of some huge force. The wealth and strength he possesses can never belong to him alone, and there must be some unimaginable force behind him to support him. Ladies and gentlemen, money and strength are all in the free city, and we should try to find out the situation and make some preliminary co-optations, and if we are sure that he really has more money and strength than we can imagine, then we must let his power be used by our 'food club'. β
"In that case, let's clean up our restaurant first, that Chris or something, although he is dead, I don't know if he has pouted his tongue for someone else, I'll deal with it." The playboy waved his hand and motioned for himself to take care of the aftermath.
The organizer 'store manager' nodded: "That's right, since this restaurant is going to entertain guests, you can't be rude, Mr. Jefferson asks you to clean up a little 'clean'." β
"Since our playboy is in charge of cleaning, I'm going to get some guests. The woman in red licked her lips and smiled.
"I said you shouldn't eat alone while soliciting customers, right?" asked the playboy Jefferson suddenly to the woman in red.
"That's hard to say, but no matter how you look at it, our guest is a beautiful boy, what do you think, Mr. Playboy?"
Jefferson cut a beautiful sigh.
"Keep checking out the identity of the guests, but don't upset them like this time. The organizer admonished, and the red-robed man nodded and quickly exited the room.
At the same time, Lelouch was warmly invited by the president of the Kinsol Chamber of Commerce, Frank Garrod, and at the dinner party, Frank's daughter Ichste and Lelouch sat face to face, and the girl suppressed the affection in her heart. From the very beginning, Isis was attracted by Lelouch's temperament and demeanor, and at one time imagined Lelouch as a descendant of an unknown family and nobleman. However, today Isis found that he had really guessed correctly, Lelouch came to his family's chamber of commerce, and actually signed a business contract with his father for more than 10 million miles in one go, and sold a large number of goods that made his father feel dumbfounded, according to his father's private whisper, these goods can be sold for at least four or five times the price as long as they change hands back to China.
"Come to Mr. Lelouch, I would like to toast you as the beginning of this good cooperation. β
At today's dinner, to celebrate the transaction, Flyer also took out his long-cherished Sandenbell wine.
"Thank you, and I wish you a happy cooperation in the future. Lelouch also raised his red wine glass elegantly and said, and that elegant gesture made Isis even more intoxicated.
After a little wine, the atmosphere of the banquet was also lively, and Isis always chatted with Lelouch from time to time, and Lelouch was also thinking about his plans for the future while responding to his admirer, and the goods brought out from the city of Ulduar had already sold seventy percent of them. Considering the reputation and credibility required for the establishment of the Chamber of Commerce in the future, in the process of selling, Lelouch also paid attention to the fact that one goods are not sold twice, and each Chamber of Commerce is basically separated from the type of goods, and will not conflict with each other.
This is a good start, and there are even better things to make a name for the establishment of the Chamber of Commerce
Lelouch couldn't help but smile. When he set out from Ulduar, Arin deliberately added a little bit of Orihakon magic metal to the goods he carried, not a lot of raw ore of a few hundred grams, but these were enough to bring Lelouch great wealth and fame. (To be continued......)
