Chapter 200: A Strong Business Woman

While Edge received the magical letter from the old captain Jericho, a group of brightly dressed nobles were anxiously discussing on the main ship of the large caravan besieged by the pirates.

Judging from their words and deeds, there are two people who have a greater influence and play a role in decision-making. One is a handsome man of twenty-seven or eighteen years old, and the other is a beautiful woman of about twenty-one or twelve years old. The man was tall and had an arrogant look on his face. The woman frowned and pondered, revealing a strong temperament of being a master without words.

The man was a noble young master of the Bhikkhu Empire, named Les Pollit. He is the eldest son of the Pollit family, a famous family in the Bhikshu Empire, and his family is the second earl in the title, and his status is extremely noble. And this woman is none other than the granddaughter of old Captain Jericho, Beth Mingbolion. She has long yellow curly hair, a dignified posture, and a very hostess style.

She is also Rice's fiancée.

I remember that the old captain Jericho said that he was from the Kenos Empire, in that case, why would his granddaughter Beth marry the Marquis Young Master of the Bhikkhuno Empire?

This kind of thing is actually not strange. Although the old captain Jericho is a native of the Kenos Empire, he has been in business for a long time and already has multiple origins. When he was young, he spent quite some time in the Bhikshu Empire, during which time he became acquainted with a beautiful woman from the Bhikshu Empire, fell in love with her, married her, and gave birth to a son.

Later, when he was about to leave the Bhikshu Empire, in order to show his love for his wife, he asked his son to take his mother's surname and live in the Bhikshu Empire as a member of the Bhikshu Empire. And the daughter of their son is Beth.

Beth followed her father, and was truly a member of the Bhikshu Empire.

"These damn pirates are so arrogant!" As they spoke, they knew at a glance that it was a middle-aged nobleman who was pampered and scolded viciously.

Now every single one of them hates the pirates out there besieging them. They were supposed to travel from the southwest coast to the Bhikshu Empire in the Far East, but they were attacked by pirates on the way. Although they have a strong escort and several warships, they have already defeated several pirate groups from the beginning. But when they drove here, they encountered a whole group of pirates.

Besieged by multiple pirate bands, they no longer dare to attack rashly. This is the southwest coast of the Kenos Empire, and there is still a considerable distance to reach the Bhikshuye Empire in the Far East. If you consume too many resources here, you may not be able to support your destination.

At present, the number of besieging pirate groups is huge, and even if they have a chance of winning the battle, it will take a lot of resources. They don't dare to do this kind of way of cutting off the back road.

If you don't leave a way out on the sea, you have a great chance of dying. The sea is different from the land, and human movement is limited at every turn.

In the face of everyone's anger and anxiety, Bess said in order to reassure them: "Don't worry too much, I have contacted my father and grandfather, and they will definitely find a way to help us." ”

"However, they are far away in the Imperial Mirror, and even if they know about our predicament, they will not be able to help us in time. At this time, some people immediately raised concerns.

Bessie glanced at him, feeling a little disdainful, and snorted coldly: "Hmph, you also underestimate our famous Bolion family, do you think that my grandfather has traveled all over the world and has not known some people here?"

"Besides, we're not completely dead. If this is not possible, it is not impossible to use the power of warships. Beth looked like she was in charge and said like a decision.

Beth is one such person who has the right to speak.

As the granddaughter of Captain Jericho's old ship, she has greatly inherited the traits of a Jericho businessman, possessing a bright and clear mind that can calmly judge the pros and cons. And because the Ming Bolion family was one of the powerful commercial families in the Bhikkhu Empire, many famous nobles had to befriend them, which made Bessie's status in the caravan even greater at this time.

In fact, half of the caravan belonged to the Borion family. This is the first time she has returned to China for many years overseas. She had heard a lot about the war in the Kenos Empire, but she didn't expect it to be so serious. Now facing the siege of the pirate horde, she is also a little irritable.

Although Les is the marquis of the Bhikkhu Empire, he has more say in front of Bess. However, due to the fact that the Bhikshu Empire has now launched a war, the war requires a lot of money to support it, which makes the status of the merchant family unprecedentedly high. For this reason, for the current situation, most of the time is Biss who has the final say.

However, for such a thing, as the young master of the marquis family, obedient to a woman who is younger than himself, Les thinks it is particularly shameless. So now his face is not very good, and he has an extremely unhappy look. But for the sake of his family, in order to allow him to have enough funds to improve his status in the empire in the future, he had to hold back.

"Believe us, those pirates are only a temporary threat to us, and soon we will come up with a solution. In order to please some Bes, Les held back his displeasure and smiled at everyone.

Although Beth is a few years younger than Rice, her mind is a typical business powerhouse. She doesn't have a very deep affection for Rice, and she also knows that her marriage to Rice is just the need of each other's families. Although the Naborion family has a certain position in the Bhikkhu Empire, it is necessary to seize a stable political backer if they want to remain undefeated in the future.

So in her marriage to Rice, what she sees is more of a necessary partnership, each taking what she needs. There is no need to talk about feelings, in the competition of famous and noble families, there are not many real feelings at all.

Beth grew up in such an environment and could see it clearly. Although occasionally, she will also look forward to romantic love. But back to reality, fantasy love is a bubble that bursts as soon as it is poked.

"My grandfather used to pass through this area before, and he said he knew a very good escort here. He's had someone contact the convoy using a magical letter, and we'll just have to wait for news now. In order to further stabilize everyone and highlight the strength of the Borion family, Beth told everyone about Jericho's request for help from Edge.

She believes in her grandfather very much, and her grandfather Jericho is also the most doting on her and will never let her have an accident.

For Bessy, who has inherited all his talents, Jericho is indeed very doting on Bes. Now he can ignore his son, but he will definitely ignore his granddaughter, Bes. He also believes that Beth can achieve more than him, and he is full of expectations for Beth.

Jericho also decided that when Beth grew up, he would hand over the business of the Bolion family to her. In other words, Beth will be the heir to the House of Beaulieon.
