Chapter 55: Money to be Hidden in Socks
"So, no one can guess what will happen tomorrow."
In the car, Stan Victor was a little dazed, he was so confused, he actually agreed to the young man, and also took two crystal cards, each crystal card contains 10 million...
Moreover, although the young man said that he didn't mind rebelling and rebelling again, he was just using himself as a bait, but he inexplicably felt that this young man had a feeling that he was sure of himself, and he was sure that he would definitely help him.
The fact is also the case, anyway, they are all dogs, and instead of being a dog for this family that does not treat themselves as human beings all the time, why can't they be dogs for the king's righteous son? Perhaps, it was his frank emotions that made him make the final decision.
After thinking about it, Stan Victor pretended to bend down and tickle, but in fact he avoided the driver's sight at this angle, took off his shoes, stuffed one of the crystal cards under his socks, and put them back on.
"This 10 million is my own retreat."
...
"The head of the house."
"I'm back."
"Well, the money has already been sent."
"Did he say anything?"
"Uh..."
"What, something?"
"Yes."
Taking a breath, Stan Victor took out a crystal card from his bosom and placed it respectfully in front of the old man.
"He gave it to me, ten million silver dollars."
"Oh?"
The old man's gaze no longer looked at the book on the table, but raised his head.
"What does he want to do?"
"Bribe me, let me find out the family's information."
"Huh.."
The old man picked up the crystal card and looked at it.
"Did he give you this money at that time?"
"Yes."
"It seems that there was a plan for a long time, why didn't you agree?"
The old man smiled and looked up at Stan Victor.
"None of us are stupid, you are destined not to be reused in the family, why don't you follow... The king's adopted son? ”
"I thought about it, but I gave up."
"Why?"
"He... It's so casual. ”
After thinking about it, Victor spoke.
"It's like. Well.. It's like. Like the puppy on the side of the road, I don't know if he is too confident or too arrogant, at the very least, he should investigate me and learn about my information before thinking about this, instead of throwing a crystal card at the beginning and saying that he wants to buy me. ”
"Not bad."
The old man nodded.
"You're not overwhelmed by profit."
"He's smart, he's powerful, he's even well-versed in the law, you know? It is because of his interpretation of the law that many nobles are now reforming their factories, picking out those parts that can be separated, and signing so-called merchant-to-merchant contracts, which seem to give a little extra money, but can make the untouchables play with their lives. ”
"Do you think such a person will be the so-called random person in your mouth?"
"I want to. . . No. ”
"That's right, whoever dares to treat him as an ordinary teenager will pay the price, such as us, and like the three of their families..."
Speaking of this, the old man sighed.
"It's obviously a problem of a box of lunches, but in the end, we lost two billion, plus face."
"Then he... What is the purpose of this? ”
"It's very simple, he doesn't mind selling him if you change hands, if I guess correctly, he will even deliberately leak some information to you afterwards, and it is real, very important, so important that we can't help but think and act on the information to you, in a sense, you are equivalent to a tool for him to declare war on our family."
"When he declares war, then we are bound to take action, and once we do, it means that we have broken the tacit understanding with King Caesar, so it is natural for him to make any counterattack."
"But will there be such information?"
"He's a genius, a real genius."
The old man's face was full of admiration, that unique machine, they had also sent someone to secretly inspect it, no matter how it looked, it didn't look like a person who had only studied magic patterns for two months could make it, so genius was the only explanation.
"If he dares to do this, there must be."
"But since you have already guessed it, does it mean that his plan has gone bankrupt?"
"No, why go bankrupt? Since he wants to play, then we will accompany him to the end. ”
The old man smiled and took a sip of coffee, looking slightly out the window into the distance, sometimes, too genius but whether he has enough power to protect the genius, in fact, is not necessarily a good thing, you must know that the final rule of any game is just a fist...
"What am I going to do?"
"Accompany him to act, you will do whatever he tells you to do, rest assured, in this matter, the family will not treat you badly."
With that, the old man threw the crystal card back.
"Thank you, master."
"Let's go down."
"Yes.."
"So, what could it be?"
The old man leaned back against his seat, his hands crossed together, but his mind was constantly thinking, what kind of information would make him and the three families so unable to sit still, so desperate to attack him?
"Grain..."
After thinking about it, only these two words came to the old man's heart.
--- dividing line
Leaving the main city all the way to the north, Fugui finally saw the Royal Alchemy Academy located in the mountains, or rather, the Royal Military Factory, which is more accurate to describe, after all, the original weapons and equipment of the entire border kingdom were basically designed and manufactured here.
...
"Royal Alchemy Academy, idlers are not allowed to enter."
At the gate, which was as heavy as a prison gate, the rich car was stopped.
"Here's the pass."
Rolling down the window, the black girl took out a token that King Caesar gave to Fugui, the size of a palm, it looks like a token, but it is actually a sophisticated alchemy device, according to Fugui's analysis, it is somewhat similar to a memory card, which stores his data, and the storage process is encrypted, once cracked, it will explode...
"Hum~"
The guard picked up the token and inserted it into the groove on the side of the gate, and the void directly appeared as a rich man, and at the same time, a huge metal ball at the top of the gate emitted bursts of special fluctuations, some similar to the thing at the entrance of the mine where the old York stayed before, but this fluctuation is more powerful, simple and rough but effective, similar to the Soviet Union's powerful flying bricks, even if the rich want to fight against such strong fluctuations, it is difficult to leave no traces at all.
"Pass!"
When the alchemy machine gave positive feedback, the guard waved his hand, and the heavy iron door slowly opened.
The scenery inside is not incompatible with the forest outside, but it is worthy of its name, the academy.
The long and almost endless boulevard, the sparkling man-made lake on one side, the students rippling on the lake can be seen in the distance, and on the other side, that is, on the mountain, there are rows and rows of buildings, thinking of various teaching buildings and the like, of course, these are just the tip of the iceberg of this academy, before coming, Caesar told him that the real body of the Royal Alchemy Academy is in the underground of the mountain, and the outside is just a place for students to enlighten...
"I love summer."
In the car, Fugui looked out the window, drove along the boulevard for a distance, everything suddenly became clear, the grass and the shade of the trees were full of students, especially female students, wearing short skirts, the sun was fresh, and he couldn't help but recall his college life, living in a junior college with a male-to-female ratio of up to 1:8, and he was also a single dog until graduation.
"Hey, it's hard to look back on."
"Boss, how to drive forward, I don't know the way."
"Huh? Is it? ”
Fugui wiped his saliva.
"Parking, boss, I'm going... Ask for directions! ”
