Chapter 919: Best Prey
Susan came to Rose County, of course, it was not as simple as wanting to wander around, by the way to demonstrate to Concubine Ti, but with ulterior motives, originally Concubine Di invited several envoys of the big lords to discuss a certain cooperation plan that would be beneficial to Rose County, and was very sure to be able to persuade them, but after Susan arrived, she secretly played some tricks, so that the two of the big lords' envoys changed their minds, and finally decided to take a conservative wait-and-see attitude, although it was not enough to collapse, but this important cooperation plan was obviously going to be temporarily shelved, which made Concubine Di extremely angry。
But worse is yet to come.
The last rays of sunlight on the horizon also disappeared from the end of the horizon, darkness descended on the earth, and the lights of the Rose City faded from the light of the day, and the night was more mysterious and charming.
To the west of the city, a group of splendid towers are erected and imposing, almost no less than the town hall of the Rose City, which shows the extraordinary nature of its owner.
In fact, its owner, in the Rose City does have a very important position, the famous Childe family, in the city is known to everyone, no one knows, if according to the standard of the Star Alliance, its level has reached the highest diamond level, the Childe family is not only prosperous, there are many strong people, and in several important business areas both internal and external have a decisive weight, although not involved in the politics of Rose County, but it is one of the recognized giants in the unofficial forces, its existence zài, but also let the overall strength of Rose City improve almost half a grade。
Outside the gate of the Childe family, a crowd of black oppressors gathered, all waiting for something.
"Step, step!"
A beast cart appeared from the straight and wide bluestone road, and people suddenly made a commotion.
"Coming, coming......"
"I didn't wait in vain tonight, she will come. ”
"After all, it was an invitation from the Childe family, so she had to give face. ”
“......”
A beautiful woman in a black dress, sitting on an open animal cart, slowly approaching the Childe family, she is like a demon in the night, exuding a thrilling temptation, her smile can arouse all kinds of desires in everyone's heart, it is Susan.
This time there was no deliberate attempt to unleash that depraving ability, and this time people didn't lose control when she first arrived in Rose City, but they were still devastated by the spirit.
With countless obsessive glances, the beast cart carried Susan and slowly entered the door of the Childe family, leaving only a sound of amazement.
After destroying the cooperation between several large counties, he did not mean to leave Rose City immediately, but wandered around the city every day, participating in various upper-class party banquets, and it was not the first time that the Childe family had been invited.
In this regard, Concubine Di could only stare dryly, after all, the nature of the territory and the kingdom are different.
For the kingdom, the monarch is greater than one qiē, and dominates the life and death of everyone in the kingdom, but the lord does not have that kind of absolute power, except for the army and municipal institutions directly controlled, its subjects are not controlled by the lord in many cases, especially in the open territory of Rose County, as long as they follow the laws of the territory and pay taxes, everything else is very free, even if the lord cannot order them to do anything, or not to do anything.
Similarly, some unofficial lower-level forces in the territory, such as families, mercenary groups, guilds, chambers of commerce, martial arts, etc., are only attached to the lord, not a direct force, even the lord is very dependent on and respectful of this kind of force, and dare not offend casually, otherwise they may be attached to another territory at any time if they are unhappy. Just like the relationship between Jiuyang County and the Heaven and Earth Martial Pavilion, Ye Ling could only use some special means to use the power of Teague and his Martial Arts.
Therefore, Concubine Di can't say to those unofficial lower-class forces, Sister doesn't welcome Susan's woman, don't invite her. In this way, Susan continued to operate rampantly on the territory of the queen of flowers.
The charm of the woman of the water level is quite terrifying, from the peddler pawn, to the nobles and celebrities, all crazy for the fallen angels, many commoners do not want to work, and guard the place where Susan appeared all day long, just to see her, and many high-class people have also sent invitations to her like snowflakes, because of the arrival of a woman, the peaceful Rose City has become impetuous.
If Susan was just a beautiful vase, the problem was that she was still a very intelligent and connotative woman, even those nobles and celebrities who were not in a mess were coaxed by her clever methods, although they would not just leave Rose City, but their loyalty to Rose City was shaken.
Don't underestimate this kind of vacillation, the lord has no direct control over the subordinate forces, once their position and attitude change, there may be potential hidden dangers, such as in the war, one or two of the several large mercenary groups in Rose City are unwilling to support, or just mean it, it will have a great impact on the combat power of the territory, which is a problem that cannot be ignored.
Like a beautiful moth, Susan silently corroded the ninth-level county.
Coming to a certain place in the Childe family, it was suddenly lively, an open-air pie duì was ready, the waiters and maids were busy working, sending wine, fruits, and food over continuously, several musicians played melodious melodies, the pai duì of the child family was always very high-end and atmospheric, in addition to Susan, all kinds of guests also came, and the atmosphere was quite warm, but it was not noisy.
Susan's appearance quickly attracted everyone's attention, and some people greeted her one after another, although she had not been in Rose City for a few days, but after attending several important factions, Susan already had a good relationship with many celebrities in Rose City.
Like a celebrity, smiling at the guests who greeted her, Susan walked towards the Paiduì center, and did not stop until she was in front of an old man: "Mr. Ellington, I am glad to have your invitation, Susan is very honored." ”
This old man is the master of today's Pai duì, and the master of the Childe family, the patriarch Ellington.
On the surface, Ellington is a very ordinary person, except that his red face is not old, there is nothing else special, at least any guest here is more imposing than him.
But if you really think he's mediocre, you're absolutely wrong.
The gloomy eyes suddenly became deep, and this ordinary old man suddenly had a sense of being able to tolerate the chaos of the universe, and no matter who was in front of him, he would feel so small.
Because Ellington is a super powerhouse in the Chaos Realm, at this level, if he deliberately shows his momentum, he looks completely no different from ordinary people.
However, the astonishing momentum was fleeting, and Ellington was already back to normal, still the ordinary old man, making you think that what you had just discovered was just an illusion.
Of course, Susan wouldn't think so.
What a great old fellow, he wants to get to the bottom of me, but it's useless!
Ellington had a smile on his face, like a warm host: "Miss Susan, you are so gracious, and on behalf of the Child family, I welcome you. ”
Susan smiled and said, "Thank you, Mr. Ellington, I really can't say no, whether it's for the Child family or you." ”
"Hehe, I didn't expect that my old bones are still a little famous. ”
"You're kidding, Mr. Ellington, in the Vertical Alliance, and indeed in the entire Ancient Wilderness, Mr. Ellington and the Child family are one banner. ”
“......”
The two sides talked casually, as if they were enjoying the guests and hosts of the party, but they had their own thoughts.
Susan naturally doesn't need to say that since she instigated several big lords to fight against Rose County, Concubine Ti's life has not been so good, those unofficial lower-level forces who are only attached to Rose County, but are not loyal, have a keen sense of smell, they will definitely be aware of this, if they secretly mediate a little more, these people's determination to support Concubine Di will be even less firm, which is the reason why Susan came to Rose City to walk around.
Of course, she can't charm these giants, such as the head of the family like Ellington, no matter how strong her ability is, it is impossible to charm them, so she must use other means to solve them.
As for Ellington, in addition to being a chaos-level super powerhouse, he is also a shrewd businessman, and the first starting point for everything he does is the survival and interests of the family, not loyalty. Childe settled in Rose County, just because this ninth-level county ruled by the first beauty has a rapid momentum, and at the same time, it can bring huge profits and benefits to his family, nothing more.
In fact, the Childe family has never been "loyal" The Childe family at that time found that the former lord would not have a good result in the upcoming war with the flowers, so they cleverly used various excuses to perfunctory, delayed, did not contribute in the war, but only gave some financial help, so did not offend the concubine, and the concubine did need this family for a reason, so after the annexation war, the child family was not affected much, and continued to take root in Rose County。
The same thing has happened to the Childe countless times, but they have always survived the change of landlords, and this is a great factor in the rudder's personality.
Now, Ellington has also noticed the contradiction between Concubine Ti and Susan, and this second beauty who suddenly appeared is very powerful, and there is a great possibility of threatening Rose County, so the Childe family has left a way out for themselves in advance, and has a good relationship with Susan first.
This kind of delicate PR work is a technical job, and you can't make Susan angry at the same time, so it has to be handled very artistically, and of course Ellington knows this very well, so he just invites Susan to participate in a seemingly pure entertainment school, where everyone talks about the wind and snow, and enjoys the wonderful evening, and does not say a word about the topic of politics.
As a big family, it is normal to invite a famous beauty who came to Rose County as a guest, and after that day, I personally took Susan to go around for the sake of face, can't our child family send invitations?
It was only a short, non-political conversation, but both Susan and Ellington knew what it meant, and in the end they both learned each other's position.
Even if there was a war between the two beauties, the Childe family would be conservative, and Susan was equally happy to see this, and the two sides agreed on the same intentions.
Finally, Susan smiled and said, "Mr. Ellington, you are really a wise family leader, no wonder the Childe family will have more and more influence under your wise management, and I believe that the Childe family will have a brighter future." ”
The last words are a pun, in addition to the polite blessings, there is another meaning, that is, if Susan can really win this war, she will provide the child family with better development opportunities and space, of course, these can't be said directly, this is the art of political communication, if you don't understand the doorway, you can't hear the sound at all.
Ellington also smiled heartily: "Hehe, Miss Susan, then I will accept your words." Ah, I'm going to greet the other guests, so feel free to enjoy the evening as if you were your own. ”
Now that he has reached an agreement with Susan, Ellington will stop inking and go to find someone else, if he talks to Susan all night, it will not be like an ordinary guest-host meeting, even if Concubine Ti understands what is going on, the superficial work still has to be done, this is the rule of the game, everyone has to abide by it.
Away from the patriarch of Child, Concubine Ti was in a good mood, because she had taken care of another subsidiary force of Rose County, and although this was already expected, it would certainly be better to hear Ellington's promise in person.
The wall-to-wall forces like the Childe family in Rose County have basically met, and the subsidiary forces within Rose County are also almost divided, so it seems that there is no need to stay any longer, so you can leave here soon.
However, until then, it's a good time to have some fun.
The fallen angel also has the ability to absorb the power of desire through some means, and the stronger the person who is seduced by her, the stronger the power that can be absorbed.
So Susan began to walk into the crowd, and as soon as she was surrounded by many young nobles, who were like bees attracted by this beautiful flower, and hovered beside her and refused to leave.
Deftly coping, Susan searched among these people for her prey.
Although many handsome and powerful young nobles are among them, Susan can't go after them, otherwise she will annoy the forces behind them, such as the future young lord Evan, who is being vigorously cultivated by the Childe family, although she is young and promising, Susan can't charm indiscriminately, lest she tear up her face with Ellington. And those who have a little less influence behind her, she doesn't have so many scruples.
After some screening, Susan initially decided on her goals.
This is a young man named Haiwei, thirty-two years old, from a family that has just risen and is a little famous in the Rose City, for this age, he is already very powerful, and even better is that he has just inherited the family, and has the right to speak, this is the most suitable object, his personal ability is helpful to himself, and on the other hand, it also hits Susan, which can be said to kill two birds with one stone.
However, before Susan could make a move, another person walked into the paiduì field.
is also very young, younger than Haiwei, only about twenty**.
Susan's eyes lit up because she had found a better purpose.
This young man who has just arrived does not have any family background in Rose County, however, he is the most worthy prey!
