Chapter 219: Robber Logic!(Recommend!Subscribe!)
The elven patriarch Migala and the dwarven patriarch Abigail have been in a good mood recently, because they heard that Erland Island tolerates and protects the existence of aliens, and there are many scattered alien tribes on the continent that have migrated to Erland Island, and among these aliens, elves and dwarves account for a large part of them, which instantly makes the elves and dwarves on Erland Island grow a lot.

On this day, Migala and Abigail came to visit Situ Jin, and each told Situ Jin about the temporary development of the two races, Migala offered to send another 5,000 elves to form a crossbowman army, and Abigail claimed that he would send another 2,000 dwarven craftsmen into the island's manufacturing factory, which Situ Jin was naturally very happy. Recently, the craftsmen of the dwarven tribe have been rushing to build large ships, and the addition of 2,000 men at once will definitely greatly increase the efficiency of shipbuilding.
Now Migala and Abigail no longer have doubts about Situ Jin, Situ Jin has fulfilled the promise he made to them before, since they officially returned to the island of Eland, the safety of the elves and dwarves has been absolutely protected, and on the island of Eland, they have also been treated equally by humans, which is a phenomenon that will never occur in other parts of the mainland of Ceylon.
Now, they have truly regarded Öland Island as their home, and have the mentality of advancing and retreating together with Öland Island and Situ Jin.

Öland Daqi Comptoir, Manager's Office.
A thin black man sat in front of John, his face was a little ugly: "Manager John, so you don't promise to give us a piece of the tea industry, do you?"
The thin black man's name is Gordon Rabelais, and he comes from the Gordon family of the Lorde Empire on the mainland.
The Gordon family is the largest and most powerful business family in the Lorde Empire, and there has always been the Yarrow Empire behind the support of the family's outward development.
After the discussion of the whole family, it was decided to send a person to the Öland Island to contact the Daqi Trading Company, trying to get tea from the Daqi Trading House at a low price, and then sell it to the outside world, and finally, Rabelais, one of the high-ranking members of the family, was selected to send it!
Although he knew that the negotiation process would not be so smooth, after all, it was to tear off a piece of meat from the hands of the Ducky Firm, but what Rabelais didn't expect was that the manager of the Ducky Firm would seal all kinds of possibilities as soon as he opened his mouth, so that he couldn't say anything at all.
Looking at the young and slightly green face in front of him, Rabelais felt a little annoyed, the other party obviously looked like a fledgling stinky boy, but he didn't expect to be so sophisticated when he spoke, and he didn't give him room to maneuver at all, it seems that he underestimated this young man, how can he sit in the position of the manager of Daqi Commercial Bank, how can it be as simple as it seems?
Hearing Rabelais's words, John immediately said: "Mr. Rabelais, it's not that I promised you a piece of the pie, in the end, I'm just working for someone else, the boss didn't speak, I really don't have the right to call the shots in this kind of thing!"
"Your boss?" Rabelais looked at John, "You mean Duke Sakura, right? Although in the eyes of most people, there is no relationship between the Dutsy Firm and the Sakura Duke, but I know that the Dutsy Firm is the private property of the Sakura Duke, since you can't call the shots, then you can let me meet the Sakura Duke!?"
"Mr. Rabelais, you're right, my boss is indeed the Duke of Sakura!" John did not deny that if anyone wanted to investigate the owner behind the Daqi Firm, then there was no way to hide it.
The Gordon family has industrial distribution in various parts of the mainland, and with the support of the Lord Empire, one of the three major empires, its strength cannot be underestimated, and it can be said that it is not difficult to investigate this kind of thing at all.
However, immediately after, John changed his words: "But you must know, Mr. Rabelais, the Duke of Sakura is a noble man, and he manages every day, and I am just a small employee in one of the properties below him, do you think I can see the Duke and others at any time?"
A slightly sly smile appeared on the corner of Rabelais's mouth: "Manager John, as far as I know, you don't just take care of the property for Duke Sakura, don't you have an official status on the island of Erland?"
"Oh—" John made a look that suddenly occurred to him that he had another identity, "Mr. Rabelais is talking about my status as the director of the commercial department?"
Smiling, John said: "Mr. Rabelais, you may not know much about some of the things on our Öland Island, although I am in charge of the industrial and commercial properties of Öland Island, but my direct supervisor is Mr. Erwin, the chief political officer of the island, and all my work is usually reported to Mr. Erwin, to tell you, I have no way to meet the Duke without the call of the Duke or Mr. Erwin's permission!"
After speaking, John added: "Mr. Rabelais, if you really want to see our Lord Duke, then you can only ask for a meeting through Mr. Erwin, I really can't help you!"
Hearing John's very obvious excuse, Rabelais had to use a killer weapon: "Manager John, you have to think clearly, this time I am not only representing our Gordon family to negotiate this matter on Öland Island, but also representing our Lord Empire, if you really don't let me see Duke Sakura, the consequences are not something that you can afford as a small director of the Department of Commerce!"
At this point, the two sides no longer need to hide it, John sneered and stared into Rabelais's eyes: "Is Mr. Rabelais threatening me?"
"What if it's a threat?!" Rabelais got up directly from his chair: "You are a small island territory on the island of Erland, and you are not afraid to monopolize the entire tea market, and you are not afraid to support yourself to death! Young man, don't blame me for not reminding you, since ancient times, people who want to monopolize food have no good end, if you or your duke are smart enough, you should seriously consider the proposal I just told you, otherwise, in the end, you may not even be able to keep this territory!"
With that, without waiting for John to speak, Rabelais turned and lifted the door.
Looking at Rabelais's departing figure, John snorted coldly: "Robber logic!"
Then he said to the secret art standing at the door of the office: "Quickly prepare a carriage for me, I will go to the Duke's Palace!"
