Hearing the inexplicable anger in the businesswoman's tone, Novena shook her head and said sincerely: "Miss Jagi, I am not cursing the future fate of 'Cataman', but compared to military strength and national cohesion, the Kingdom of Yasin is indeed far more powerful than your homeland, so the people of 'Cataman' need 'Fran' to be an ally.

It doesn't make any sense to dwell on the assumptions that the Kingdom of France would treat the Catamanese city-states if they had won the 'Hundred Years' War, the reality is that we have lost and are now being exploited by the Frans as the vanquished, and you are in a situation similar to ours, and since we all have a common enemy, it is only natural that you are natural allies. ”

Novena's words were polite and courteous, and Aki stiffened, jumped out of the carriage and looked back at the young man in hunting costume, and suddenly smiled bitterly, "Mr. Novena, I'm just a troubled merchant, and the coat of arms on your cuffs shows that you are from the Lopan family, which lost their territory at the beginning of the 'Hundred Years' War.

Don't you think it's ridiculous that we talk about the fortunes of two great powers in such an identical capacity?"

"Miss Jagi, the sage Arinard once said, 'If there is a fulcrum, no matter how ordinary a person is, he can pry the whole continent', not to mention that you are not an ordinary businessman, but the most talented and influential leader of the young generation of wealthy merchants in the 'vice-capital' of the city-state of Catamane.

And though I am only a descendant of a landless nobleman, behind me stands the favorite son of the Sun King of France, His Royal Highness Prince Edo de Parildo. Novena's eyes flashed with a gleam, and he said with ambition in his tone. His eyes turned to a simple carriage with a quail pattern standing on the black iron castle in the distance.

The black iron castle carriage approached the mansion and slowly stopped behind the magnificent carriage of Agi, and before the servants could open the door, a young man with golden hair and vigorous black leather hunting suit like Novena burst out of the carriage.

"Miss Jackie, your carriage is so fast, and it seems that your four beautiful riding beasts are indeed of pure blood. As soon as he got out of the car, the man looked at the businesswoman not far away, and said with a smile.

"You've been too rewarded, Your Highness," Akira said with her elegantly crossed legs and curtsied, "Compared to the world-famous pure-blooded one-horned dragon horses in the beast pen of the Maple Dew Palace, they are probably only lame earth donkeys in the fields. ”

"You call me Your Highness. Oh. Novena..."Hearing the businesswoman address him, the blonde man looked at Novena in surprise, and the latter explained with a helpless wry smile, "Aido, Miss Jacki recognizes the Black Iron Castle quail crest on your carriage. Guessed your identity. ”

"Huh. I've long said that I'm going to travel to 'Cataman' on WeChat. You should just make up a noble coat of arms..."Hearing this, Aido frowned and complained, but was immediately stepped out of the carriage with a graceful posture behind him. The young, beautiful and charming girl in the puffy skirt interrupted, "Dear brother, don't say stupid things.

We don't intend to deceive others, we just don't want to attract attention, but even so, we should apologize to Mr. Cayman Law and Miss Jackie..."

Saying that, the girl walked gracefully to the city defense officer in military uniform, curtsy and said: "Mr. Cayman Luo, my brother and I don't want to deliberately hide our identities, but because our identities are special, it is really inconvenient to make them public during our travels, and I hope you can use the raw materials." ”

Seeing the princess of a country apologize so sincerely, Caymanluo's expression, which was originally cold, quickly softened, and said with a wry smile: "Little Selinya, no, Princess Selinya, I can understand your distress, but this, such a fool...

Forget it, you should be magnanimous as a man, not to mention that you are not completely hiding your identity, I just can't see it myself. ”

"Will we still be friends in the future?" asked the girl softly.

"Of course, we're still friends. Cayman Luo, who had unconsciously dissipated the anger in his heart, nodded and said.

Selinya smiled happily on her delicate and delicate faces, "Since we are still friends, can you help persuade Miss Yaji not to mind our cover-up?"

In the face of such an angelic 'lovely child's plea, not only Cayman Luo could not refuse, but Ya Ji, who was of the same sex and in a desperate situation, could only accept the apology gladly, and suddenly the faintly antagonistic and embarrassing scene became unprecedentedly harmonious.

After some secret conversations, it seems that Jacki has reached some kind of agreement with the guests from Fran, inviting them to stay at the Golden Flower Terrier Manor.

It's a pity that although Aido's status is noble and he is especially favored by the Sun King, according to the recognized noble inheritance law of the Green Leaf Continent, if he can't become the king of Fran, the most he can get in his life is two or three manors of similar size to the 'Golden Flower Terrier', and a vain title of court earl.

As the ancient kingdom of the 'Green Leaf Continent', although the royal annuity is quite generous, enough for the princes and princesses of noble blood to live a very decent life, it is tantamount to a drop in the bucket to solve the debt dilemma of the largest merchant house in the vice-capital of the Catamane city-state.

So after swallowing a piece of the painted pie and becoming the most preferred collaborator of the French royal family to curb the dignity of the king in the expansion of the Catamane city-state, the businesswoman did not get the actual benefits that a useful pawn deserved, and had to fight for the survival of her own business.

Time passed slowly in the increasingly festive and joyful atmosphere of Heinheimmann City, and the growing cheerful atmosphere of the city, on the contrary, the smile on the face of Yagi, who could not borrow money and ran into walls everywhere.

Finally, after receiving a letter from the falcon on New Year's Eve, the businesswoman's strong and most false smile was completely shattered.

In the elegant small dining room of the Golden Flower Terrier Manor, seeing the businesswoman sitting at the head of the table covered with white flannel with an expressionless face, her body trembling slightly, she put the tough animal skin paper close to the candlestick and burned it, Novena asked in a low voice, "Yaji, what happened?"

"My father wrote to me that he had finally received a promise from the family that he would give his full support to Golden Velvet through this difficult situation, at the cost of losing everything our family had. Things finally came to the worst, and after taking a deep breath, Aki calmed down and replied in a low voice.

"What do you call everything. Roman, who was sitting at the bottom of the businesswoman, paused for a moment and asked in a low voice, as the culprit of the disaster, this handsome young man who was vain seemed to have completely lost the meaning of jealousy of his sister and provoking her authority, and his expression of speech seemed to be low-eyed.

"All of this means that after the New Year, the shares of the Golden Flower Terrier and the Golden Velvet Merchant Company, the savings of the City Bank, the minerals of Dupont and Frenza, the trade routes of Scorpion Island, etc., will be taken away by the family.

You, me, my father, and my mother can only live on the streets from now on. The businesswoman looked into her brother's eyes and said in a dry voice.

"No, no, that's not true," such a tragic ending was far beyond Roman's previous worst expectation that his family would lose the right to speak in the Golden Velvet Flower Firm, and he couldn't help but exclaim in despair: "The savings of the city-state bank and the minerals of Dupont and Frenza are our own assets, and the family has no right to take them away."

They, they don't have the right to do that..."

"But the family has the right to send you to the gallows for stealing your father's seal and speculating on French war bonds to cause huge losses to the 'Golden Velvet Flower'. The businesswoman looked at her brother coldly, and said word by word.

"Yagi, is there no other way?" After a few days of contact, he had learned about the businesswoman's outstanding business skills and perseverance, and knew that it would be difficult to find a more suitable collaborator than Novena, and asked with a frown.

"Of course, if the Sun King can send the famous 'black-clothed messenger' to contact the Mison family, I think the direct strength represented by the patriarch will definitely make some concessions..."

"I can try as much as I can, but time is too short, Aki, I don't think my father will be able to send a secret envoy to a 'Golden Family' until he fully realizes your value.

I'm sorry I don't have the strength to help you more. Aido pondered for a moment and sighed.

"I'm grateful that you're willing to try, Your Highness. The businesswoman smiled gratefully at Prince Fran, bowed her head and was silent for a long time, then looked up with a resolute expression on her face.

In the bright candlelight, she looked at the only black-haired young man at the table who was still eating and drinking, "Your Excellency Li Sheng, I really don't want to make this request that violates conscience and fairness.

But if you can write to my family and tell them that the trading rights of the natives of Scorpion Island belong to me and not to the Golden Velvet Firm..."

"Miss Yaji, since it is against conscience and fairness, why do you bother to bring it up," Zhang Lisheng interrupted the businesswoman by putting a tender raptor loin in his mouth, "If I do what you think, then although the odds are not high, your family may still be unfavorable to me in order to punish your family of four and keep the business line with 'Wu Li'."

Of course, I don't take such a small thing to heart, but I'm not a fool and I don't owe you anything..."

"I know that I owe you all along, Your Excellency Li Sheng," Ya Ji looked at his younger brother who seemed to have no soul in his body, clenched his fists, and said with a pale face, "But didn't you promise, as long as I can always remember your kindness and give a certain amount of reward, then no matter what difficulties I encounter, I will definitely solve them."

I'll go to your bedroom tonight and give you the maximum reward I can give, in that case, you, will you help me?" (To be continued......
