Thirteen lines, above the hall, in the reception area, the atmosphere is high and warm. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

The uproar and enthusiasm are because of the group of concubines in Sharon Bas, looking at the few colorful glass bottles on the table, they are so excited that they tremble as if they are climaxing, and their unstoppable whispers slowly become more and more high-spirited and more agitated, just like "coquettish", which is extremely confusing~!

How dare you care! They were all guests brought by the Duke of Roche and the Grand Duke!

As a result, compared to the group of concubines, Abella seems to be much more "calm", she is sitting at a table with her husband and a group of big people, smiling and smiling - well, although she seems to be calm and reserved on the surface, she is actually surging and surging inside!

So, what is it that makes this group of women who at least belong to high society so excited?

Of course, it's a product of the thirteen lines!

What products?

Hey~!Actually, until now, the Thirteen Lines have not launched a total of several products that can be sold in large quantities. The fist product is naturally white sugar, but this thing is dreamy, but you have to eat it in your mouth to have a feeling, just looking at the crystals, you can't see the flowers, right?

Therefore, it can only be five kinds of perfumes with different colors, different aromas, and different grades in exquisite glass bottles!

Fresh and natural, or elegant, or vibrant, or charming...... Elegant, luxurious, and stylish – "to convey an emotion, a way of life, and a touch of seduction left behind by the passing of time!" (Dior's advertising slogan)

Listening to such words and phrases, there is a trembling feeling like electricity!

At the same time, there is no doubt that even the most high-end one is better than the finest perfume from the Capital Alchemy Society that I have been lucky enough to see!

"Thurman! You can even make perfume!"

Charombas carefully picked up a bottle of pink perfume, put it in front of his eyes, looked at it again and again, opened the bottle slightly, took a little taste, and his face suddenly flashed with a look of enjoyment and envy, and then, of course, there was more pain and entanglement, seeing his group of concubines who seemed to be crazy, he knew that he had to bleed heavily today.

The Grand Duke smiled reservedly: "Haha! I don't dare to take credit, after all, everything is just Saphius's ability." ”

It sounded like self-humility, but the smugness in his tone was clearly recognizable, which made Shalongbas hate itchy: "Phew, why didn't I save that strange man from another world?" (Ye Guyun's external statement of the origin)

The Grand Duke replied: "You have to let yourself have a good heart all the time on weekdays~!"

"Kind-hearted??" Shalombas was amused, "You are the number one black-hearted merchant in the world! How many sugar workshops and trading houses have you already knocked down? Next, hmph, look, those stupid and bad guys of the Capital Alchemy Association will be squeezed by you again and go bankrupt!"

The Grand Duke shook his head and cleared: "It's just normal business competition. Moreover, the sugar and perfume are thirteen lines! not mine. ”

......

Ferreira remained silent, frowning only slightly when the name he cared about most was mentioned in the conversation around him. He seemed to be distracted, a little elated, but there was hesitation and vigilance in his eyes, since he left the pastry shop. This was a kind of caution, and he didn't want to go through the embarrassment of being robbed and speechless again. Especially after seeing white sugar and all kinds of perfumes, and thinking about some deep things related to it.

Unconsciously, he had put away his contempt for the "barbaric and backward" Northland.

......

Shalombas scolded loudly, looking extremely indignant: "Thurman! You are enough! Excessive clarification is hypocrisy! Don't tell me that the biggest shareholder of the Thirteen Lines is not you or Crescent City!" He danced and scratched his ears and cheeks, and his heart was surging and unbearable, "Uhhhh

"Of course, I want to make my life more comfortable~!" The Grand Duke spread his hands, shrugged his shoulders, squinted, his face flushed, he tried his best to pretend to be more like a flashy nobleman who pursued pleasure and great achievements, "So I have already started to expand the city! I want to expand the city by two mountains! I plan to expand the city area by two, three or even ten times! I want the Crescent City to completely fill all the legal territory west of the Horna River! - Hey, you know, the current Crescent City is too crowded! As a lord, I can't even find enough land to build a manor, a palace, or a hunting ground for me...... I can't stand the days when I go out to see a drama and are likely to encounter congestion!

Although the expansion plan of Crescent City had been heard of for a long time, everyone would still be extremely surprised to get confirmation from the mouth of the Grand Duke.

Really, such a plan...... It's ridiculous!

As a ruler, how could such an exaggerated idea be born, and how could such an unrealistically huge plan succeed?

It is as if the people have seen that the Dominion government wasted a huge amount of investment, and then reaped only a mess that could not be ended, and then the finances were ruined, the governance failed, and the people were dissatisfied, and finally overthrown, a classic scene that can warn future generations - similar scenes are not rare in the annals of history!

Ferreira twisted his lips and laughed wildly in his heart: Hahaha! He's crazy! Good! Good! Go crazy! You are killing yourself!

Ferreira was not the only one who thought the Grand Duke was crazy, Shalombas stared at him with a look of hell shock, he got up, leaned over to the Grand Duke, stretched out his hand and shook it in front of his eyes, "Thurman, are you crazy?!" Turning to look at Roach and Frank, "Hey, you two, why don't you stop your father?"

The Grand Duke pressed down the shaking hand and said calmly: "Shalon, I am very sober, I am very sensible, I know what I am doing. ”

Shalombas laughed angrily: "Is your plan still called sanity?"

The Grand Duke touched his beard and continued his performance, he smiled smugly and said, "I am rich, very rich! You don't know that in addition to sugar and perfume, the Thirteen Lines will also launch a series of products of the same level one after another!"

Naturally, it means that the profits are at the same level! Hearing this, everyone was short of breath.

"So...... Hehe, financially, you don't have to worry at all about whether Crescent City has the capacity to support this huge, grandiose, long-term plan!"

Shalombas turned his head in annoyance: "Okay, you can do it, you can play, I don't care, okay?" NND, seeing that others are obviously doing the things of a loser, and they are full of dashing confidence and don't have to worry about failure at all, that's called a ...... What the hell is disgusting! Dog X's! Disgusting!"

The Grand Duke laughed, waved his hand, and said: "I like what Saphius said, 'To be rich is to be willful' - Shalon, you must know, man, with a huge amount of money, he will become restless~! So, while I am not really old, I have to hurry up and be willful! In order to, hehe, come and enjoy ~! About the expansion plan...... "He suddenly turned his head to look at little Femeen, who had no sense of existence," Although there is no shortage of money, there is a shortage of people, and of course it takes a lot of people to expand the city, so there is a cooperation plan with Plant County. ”

The Grand Duke raised his glass to Femien Jr.: "We are willing to take in the displaced people in Plant, who have been displaced by disasters, and provide them with shelter, food, jobs, and a new life......! No, at least a win-win cooperation. Crescent City will have the manpower it needs to build the city, Plant County will be able to alleviate the pressure of relief and reconstruction, and thousands of displaced people will be able to shake off their difficult situation and rebuild their lives!"

Shalombas pouted: "Sounds wonderful!"

The Grand Duke immediately continued: "It must be wonderful in practice! As you can see, this cooperation can satisfy many of our demands, whether utilitarian or humanitarian! It should be implemented quickly, and should not be blamed, attacked, obstructed, or even sabotage! In fact, no one can find anything wrong with this noble cooperation that can be attacked, and any gossip about it is only vicious and ill-intentioned slander and slander!"

Ferreira was stunned when he heard this, he knew that Xu was a preliminary temptation, Xu was an attack and defense, and the confrontation between this group of politicians had officially begun.

Shalombas shrugged: "Things will never be as good as words, there are too many influences in this!"

Little Femien, who had a straight face, nodded: "First of all, the outflow of residents is a big problem. This issue is so sensitive that it is difficult for anyone in power not to scruple about it, whether because of subjective or objective factors. My uncle ...... the same way."

Ferreira pouted disdainfully: The subjective factor is the will of the county warden Feminen~! The objective factor is not the pressure of the county council and even the central government's supervision department! But that's all fart! The subtext of the whole sentence is -- you can ask for someone! But how to give me the final say! You have to pay enough price! Hey, I'm waiting for your offer~!

The Grand Duke shook his head: "Isn't it also a kind of outflow of residents to let the outcasts die of hunger and cold or force them to fall into the grass?"

Ferreira almost burst out laughing: This is a refusal - hey! The homeless people were originally a burden to you, a black pot on your back! Now I'm helping you move it!

The Grand Duke added: "Actually, there should be no such thing as an exodus of residents. Isn't Crescent City, Plant County, all of which are part of the Republic of Greyster, and what kind of 'exodus' is there from Plant County to Crescent City?"

Ferreira frowned: Huh? This is about to move on to sensitive issues? so quickly?

Feminon Jr. remains calm: "However, the will of the inhabitants is very important, and we must respect them to the utmost extent and not force them to relocate. ”

The Grand Duke replied: "I don't think that will be a problem, the people are always very smart and realistic, survive and perish, and at the same time put in front of them, normal people know how to choose......"

Femien Jr. immediately received: "There will always be people who want to have guaranteed personal rights and more individual freedoms......"

The Grand Duke smiled: "Isn't there one in Crescent City?"

"I'm not sure! at least......" Feminion shook his head, "there is no democracy." He looked directly at the Grand Duke with a blazing gaze, "In the same way, there will always be people who desire to live in the air of democracy, and for this, they are willing to propagandize, promote, and even rise up to fight, and there will be no shortage of such people." So, what is the Duke going to do with them, repression, or expulsion? It's not a good idea! We don't want to see ......."

The Grand Duke's smile did not change: "So what would you like to see?"

Feminne's expression did not change: "Simple! Respect the democratic demands of each resident, so that they can freely express their 'different' opinions...... Of course, if you, Your Excellency, can take the initiative to give up those undeserved privileges, put an end to that unseemly dictatorship, and promote the democratization of the Dominion of Crescent City, as Duke Makao did, we would welcome it all the more!"

Hearing this, Frank couldn't help but blurt out: "It's too wide!"

Even Ferreira, who has a different position, deeply agrees: Nima, this is too radical and reckless! Obviously, they are discussing cooperation on the issue of displaced people (in fact, this cooperation is more beneficial to their own side), but they turn their heads and say to their faces, "I want to cut your roots", isn't this a brain-wreck? Well, even if you do have this kind of thought, won't you keep a low profile, won't you hide it, and won't act in secret? Is there such a thing that you have revealed all your potential means at once?

Pigs!

Ferreira was in a state of grief, while Femien Jr. ...... Well, there was no embarrassment at all, he was still looking directly at the Grand Duke.

The Grand Duke raised his eyebrows and said gently, "Yes, as you say, 'the will of the inhabitants is very important, and we must respect it to the utmost,' and a change in the form of government, a big thing, must necessarily respect the will of the inhabitants." But now, everything in Crescent City is running well, prospering, living and working in peace and contentment, and I don't see any demands from the residents in this regard. ”

Feminen retracted his gaze: "Yes, it's okay, wait, it will happen soon, democracy is universal." ”

Ferreira was speechless: With you, I'm afraid it will be even harder to see the day of the world.

Ferreira was complaining, and Shalombas was complaining, but he said it loudly: "Hey, you two, what the hell are you fighting at the edge? I don't care, anyway, you always have to cooperate, you always have to move the displaced people through my Kifu County, you say, should you pay some benefits?"

Nobody cares.

In fact, the expenses have already been given, but the county of Plant has been handed over directly to the county of Kifu to pay for the cost of food and lodging for the homeless people while they stay in the county of Kiford, and it is obviously not something that can be handled by individuals, nor can they be enjoyed by individuals.

Shalombas was not embarrassed, squinted at both sides, and said dissatisfiedly: "All of them are rich, and all of them are iron roosters!" Why are you hesitating? Because of the price? It doesn't matter! Ferreira's poor devil can't afford it, I'll buy it for you, for the rest of my life!"

Without saying anything, Ferreira suddenly felt nameless again, and Abella just smiled lightly: "You are so willing to be the wronged boss? But don't worry, I don't want to buy any of these." ”
