Chapter 81 Anti-water(1/2)

Jackal Scream signed the Westland Logistics Formation Agreement and the Westland Trade Road Development Plan, and the Westland commercial development project led by Luke was officially launched.

According to the agreement and plan, Screaming is responsible for persuading the Sand Pirates to change careers and use the information they have to actively engage in the material circulation industry in the Western Territory. Luke is responsible for the Sand Pirates' laundering process. As long as they run the business honestly, all the crimes they have committed will be eliminated.

All can be written off in one go.

If someone still wants to have a dual identity, the empire may not be able to control it, but the Moonlight Court will definitely have a way to prevent him from living in the Western Territory.

Combining carrots and sticks, the Jackal Screaming was very cooperative. He even took the initiative to hand over part of the list of sand pirates and safe roads, which not only received the investment certificate but also obtained the first investment from Raging Waves City.

After the matter was settled, Luke threw a thick stack of gold coupons to Squealing.

"These are considered as start-up funds for Westland Logistics Company. If you are willing to make money with me, we are the veterans of Westland Logistics Company. If you are not willing to make money with me, I will not force you. I will give him a sum of money and let him make a living on his own.

Just don’t fall into my hands in the future.”

Jianhao took the gold coupons in his hand and weighed them. He estimated that there were two to three hundred gold coupons.

Such a generous move made Screaming Howl even more certain that his choice to follow the Governor of Meteor Star was correct.

He stood up and saluted Luke respectfully: "Please rest assured, Lord Governor. I can't guarantee that there will be no sand thieves in the Western Region in the future, but I guarantee that there will definitely be no sand thieves that can become a problem in the future. Your trade routes are absolutely safe, and your investment will definitely be guaranteed."

Give back.”

"Of course I believe that my investment will pay off, otherwise I wouldn't come to you." Luke stood up, straightened his clothes, and then said to Screaming: "That's it for today's meeting! In the next few days,

I have important things to deal with. If you don't have anything urgent, don't come to me.

After everything that needs to be done is done, I will discuss with you in detail how the Westland Logistics Company should operate."

Screaming immediately accompanied Luke outside, and asked tentatively: "What urgent matter does the Governor have to do? We still have some strength in Sunshine City. If you give me some time, I can provide the Governor with hundreds of elite warriors."

."

Luke saw through Jianhao's little thoughts and chuckled: "From now on, you will be a regular businessman, and a businessman should behave like a businessman. Why did you gather hundreds of warriors to come to Sun Yao City?

Rebellion?"

Screaming was so frightened that he immediately apologized: "I'm sorry, Lord Governor! The sudden change of identity made me a little uncomfortable. I just meant well."

"No matter what you think, don't get involved in the struggle at the national level. With your little wealth... you can't afford it.

If you have the time and energy, just do what you should do clearly!"

Luke struck and screamed.

Now that we have taken away the knives from the hands of these sand thieves, we can no longer give them the opportunity to touch the knives, and we have stopped them from wanting to touch the knives. Otherwise, once this is opened, it will be difficult to control these extremely vicious people.

Westland Logistics Company can have force, but the force must be strictly controlled within the necessary scope.

Screech understood what Luke said and knew that the lawless sand pirates would really become a thing of the past in the West.

"As you command, Lord Governor."

Luke left Slave Corner and returned to the Central Lake Castle of Sun Yao Manor. As soon as he walked through the gate, he was informed that Her Royal Highness had been summoned.

Luke followed the eldest princess's maid to Agatha's bedroom. Agatha was standing on the terrace looking at the scenery outside. Her white dress was very eye-catching, but there was some worry in her eyes.

The female official reported: "Your Highness, the Governor of Meteor Star is here."

Agatha turned her back and waved her hand to let the female officer leave. The female officer exited and closed the door.

Luke walked to the terrace, looked around and asked, "What are you looking at, Your Highness?"

"I'm looking at the castle's defense layout. I wonder if we can hold on until rescue arrives when faced with a siege."

Luke couldn't help but laugh: "Since we entered Sun Yao City, we have been harmless and focused on shopping. Who will besiege us? Is it because you have spent all the money I gave you and have nothing to do, so you are here to think wildly?"

Agatha turned her head, stared at Luke with sharp eyes, and said in a very dissatisfied tone: "Don't think I'm stupid. I admit that I didn't know why you asked me to go shopping crazy at first, but in the past few days, the prices in the Japanese market have risen.

Gao, let me know your plan clearly.

Raising the prices of goods at the Harvest Festival will increase the cost of maintaining the operation of the territory for the lords of the Western Territory.

Very beautiful plan!

But have you ever thought about how we get out of here? Do you think the nobles of the Western Region will let us go? The great nobles of the Western Region are all here, and the Celtic envoys are also here. If you do this, you will not only cause us to die here, but also

It will completely push the Western Territory to the Celtic side.

You have done very well in both Raging Wave City and Shenglun City, but you don’t understand the Western Region, you should tell me your plan in advance!”

At this time, Agatha couldn't control her emotions. She felt that she trusted the meteorite too much, and that the meteorite's previous performance had made her lose the judgment she should have.

Now the Harvest Festival is about to be held, and the prices of goods in Sun Yao City have been raised. This is like inserting a knife into the artery of the nobles of the Western Region to bleed. These nobles who are wandering on the edge of the empire's ruling area will definitely not sit still and wait for death.

Agatha took an oppressive step toward Luke, resisting the urge to push him against the wall and beat him up.

Facing Agatha, who was clearly furious but still controlling her emotions, Luke felt it was time to explain to her what he had done.

And some things also require the endorsement of the eldest princess of the empire.

But before Luke could open his mouth to explain, the female officer opened the door and walked in. When she saw Agatha and Luke facing each other and so close, she immediately moved her eyes to one side.

"Your Highness, Lord Governor, Earl Urd is here. He requested to be received by Lord Governor of Meteor..."

Agatha realized at this moment that she had lost her temper. She immediately took a step back, and then noticed the words used by the female officer.

"Earl Urd said that he requested an audience with Lord Governor Meteor. Are you sure he used 'request' and 'interview'?"

The Earl of Urd is an earl, and the Fallen Star is a viscount.

Earl Urd is the lord of Sunlight Oasis and Meteorite is the governor of Raging Waves City.

Count Urd is higher than the meteorite in terms of title and position. Why would he use such honorifics as "lower" to "upper" when he comes to meet the meteorite?

Siluke

This is the right thing to say when you come to see yourself.

The female officer confirmed: "That is indeed what Earl Urd said. He is waiting for the reply from Lord Governor Meteorite in the living room on the second floor."

There must be a story in this.

Agatha looked at Luke and asked with confusion in her eyes: "Why did he come to you?"

Luke knew that Count Urd must have understood the information he revealed to him.

Guessing the purpose of Urd's visit this time, Luke said to Agatha: "Since Earl Urd has come to seize the window, your highness will go with me to see him. By the way, I can explain to your highness that I have been busy these days.

What have you done.

Don’t worry! No one is attacking us."

After saying that, Luke walked out the door and asked the female officer to lead the way to see Count Urd.

Agatha looked at Luke's back and couldn't help but reveal a self-deprecating smile on her face: "It seems that you are still the guy who can create miracles. I don't know what kind of surprise you can bring me this time."

Agatha followed in stride.

Count Urd, who was waiting in the living room on the second floor of the castle, was very restless. Although this was his own castle, he didn't feel at home at all.

I had just made a difficult decision, a decision that would affect how the Urd family would exist in the future. This window period was fleeting, and I did not allow myself to waste time thinking and weighing too much.

Without making Earl Urd wait too long, Luke opened the door and walked in first.

"My Lord Governor..." Earl Urd immediately stood up and saluted Luke. When he saw Agatha coming in with him, he saluted Agatha again: "Good day, Your Royal Highness, Princess, and good day, Lord Governor."

"Good day, Lord Count, please take a seat!" Luke asked Earl Urd to sit down, and he and Agatha also sat down respectively, and then asked: "Is the special envoy of the Duke of Celtic here with you?"

Agatha couldn't help but look at Luke sitting next to her, wondering if this thing could be asked directly?

But who would have thought that Earl Urd replied: "Yes, the special envoy of the Celtic Earl does live in Sun Yao Manor. The Governor should know this special envoy. His name is Erguya, and he has been to Raging Waves City."

"That barbarian Erguya?" Luke did not expect that the Celtic envoy was still an acquaintance. He said to Count Urd: "Although I have never met him, I know that he is highly relied upon by the Celtic Duke.

Has he met any of you powerful nobles in the Western Region?"

Earl Urd replied: "This morning in the basement of the quiet court on the southeast side of the manor, I held a meeting with the main nobles of the Western Region, and Erguya participated in the whole process."

"What did we talk about?"

Urd was a little hesitant this time, and beads of sweat kept pouring out of his forehead.

Luke knew what Urd was worried about, so he comforted him: "Her Royal Highness the Princess is also here this time. This is your chance and the only chance.

Whatever you say, the Urd family will still be a prominent family in the Western Region in the future, and their status will even be higher than it is now. If you fail to seize the opportunity given to you... it will be in vain that I sincerely want to help you."

At this time, although Agatha didn't know what Luke had done to Earl Urd to make him the second-fifth son of the nobles of the West, she knew what she should do now.

Agatha showed off the momentum of the princess of the empire and said to Count Urd: "No matter what you are discussing, it is still in the discussion stage. The empire will not convict someone who has always been responsible for something that has not happened.

Friends of the empire guarding the border.

Of course, we will not let down those who have contributed to the empire.

Just because you come here means you know you have no chance of winning, so do what smart people should do."

Now that things have come to this, Count Urd can only risk his life.

"At this meeting, the nobles of the Western Region reached an alliance and jointly sent troops to attack the Crescent Oasis after the Harvest Festival. At the same time, the nobles of the Western Region jointly called on all members of the Blade-bearing Brotherhood... to rebel..."

After saying this, Earl Urd couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief. After taking this step, he had no other thoughts.

The decision of the nobles of the West was within Luke's expectation, and the timing was just right, just in time to force Urd to his side.
