It has been three days since they arrived in Best City, and Yuan Xu and Li Feng are still waiting.
Today will be the day when the regular Bitters joint meeting will be held. Countless families in the entire region will send their core officials to hold the meeting.
This tradition has been around for a long time, and today it happened to be the turn to be held in Best City, the home of the Carter family in Raleigh.
"We are very lucky." This is what Yuan Xu said to Li Feng. It is obvious that this old fox is very happy to meet the joint meeting by such a coincidence.
Why is Yuan Xu so happy? Because he is worried that he has no opportunity or excuse to contact various nobles in the joint meeting. If he wants to do business, he must find more buyers to succeed.
Li Feng is not very concerned about this. For him, these strategic things need more practice to understand.
Jellal still sent an invitation letter, inviting Yuan Xu to participate in this joint meeting. Originally, Jellal did not want Yuan Xu to participate. The reason was because of Yuan Xu's intelligence as a large comprehensive caravan in Dragon City.
Others found out, so Jellal had to let Yuan Xu come out.
As for how this news appeared, if you think about it for a moment, you will know that Longcheng's intelligence bureau does not have to spend much effort to do such a small thing.
In this way, Jellal's intention to trade with the Dragon City caravan on his own was gone. After all, in the entire Bitters area, his Raleigh Carter family was just an upper-middle-sized family.
With very complicated feelings, Jellal still acted as the host and welcomed the elites from this family to Best City.
The meeting will be held in the castle of the Raleigh Carter family, and Best City is already bustling with activity at this moment. The turmoil from the outside world does not seem to have affected the Butes area. The people here are still living peacefully.
Just like the sky and the earth. The people here live a prosperous life. Although there are some poor people, most people can still live a good life. They can't understand why those people who live in pain are willing to
Risking one's life to provoke war, this difference in thinking comes from the difference in life.
Closer to home, Jellal was busy welcoming big families from all over the place. Many of these people had great backgrounds, such as the first family in the Bits region, the Izzy family. This family is the oldest family in the Nohr Empire, and their excavations can be traced back to
During the Holy War, James Eads was a fierce general who followed the six holy emperors to conquer the mainland.
Time has passed, and many families have blossomed and fallen, but the Izzi family has always maintained its strong vitality. Thanks to the advanced agriculture in the Butis region, the Izzi family firmly occupies a position as the core force of the empire.
The man in front of Jellal is none other than the second young master of the Izzy family, Zhanjun Izzy.
Zhan Jun, who was thirty years old at the time, was different from the second young masters of other big families. Although he did not have the right to inherit, he had never had any conflicts with his brother Zhante Izzy. Even when the inheritance rights were determined, he
He also took the initiative to help his brother obtain the inheritance rights.
It is precisely because of the concerted efforts of the two brothers that the Izzy family burst out with vitality. If it were not for this turmoil that swept the entire empire, perhaps the Izzy family would be able to reach the highest peak again just around the corner.
Compared to his elder brother Zhan Te's leadership qualities, his younger brother Zhan Jun is better at making suggestions. In his own words, his purpose in life is to help his brother become a great hero.
It sounds ridiculous, but how many people can't do this.
Although Jellal is much older than Zhan Jun, he doesn't dare to put on any airs in front of this young man. Because Zhan Jun's other nickname is the Smiling Devil.
In order to help his brother fight for inheritance rights, Zhan Jun did a lot of shocking things. For example, his three half-brothers had various accidents. Even the youngest brother was only a teenager.
, he slipped and fell while climbing a mountain, and his life was ruined.
Although no one has ever accused Zhan Jun of being cruel, everyone knows that this man who always smiles is extremely cruel at heart.
The purpose of Zhan Jun's visit to this joint meeting is very clear, which is to get in touch with the large-scale Dragon City caravan that suddenly appeared. Not only because it can conduct a lot of trade, but also because Zhan Jun wants to get in touch with the people of Dragon City.
Jun knows that Longcheng has the most terrifying machine in the dark world of the mainland - the Intelligence Bureau!
Now anyone with a little ability can know the name of the Dragon City Intelligence Bureau.
This organization, like Dragon City, rose at a rocket-like speed. In just a few years, it reached the leading position in the dark world.
So far, most of the people who were enemies of the Intelligence Bureau have disappeared. As for the methods, they are even more cruel and shocking. The power of the Intelligence Bureau is really mind-numbing, and many people choose to stay away from it.
What does it have to do with these madmen in the dark? Even in Dragon City, there are many people who avoid this official department. Compared with the gentle methods of the Security Bureau, the killers, agents, and madmen of the Intelligence Bureau are far behind.
People are afraid.
Zhan Jun also learned about this mysterious organization by chance, and then developed a strong interest in it. Recently, when Zhan Jun dealt with many things, he would subconsciously refer to the Intelligence Bureau's methods. Sometimes, too much
His cruel behavior also made his brother very angry. However, Zhan Jun enjoyed it. He felt that Longcheng's intelligence bureau was simply a place where geniuses gathered. Therefore, this time I heard that a caravan from Longcheng appeared.
, Zhan Jun rushed to Best City immediately and wanted to contact the Intelligence Bureau through Yuan Xu.
If Jia Xu knew that Zhan Jun was such a person, I don't know what he would think.
Zhan Jun was not too polite to Jellal, because in his eyes, the Raleigh Carter family in Best City was just a small family. If there was no place where they could be used, they might have been replaced by the Izzy family long ago.
Swallowed it in one gulp.
Jellal also knew that he and the other party were not on the same level, but he had to smile and invite Zhan Jun to his seat.
Walking into the large room specially set up for meetings, Zhan Jun looked around. Many people who arrived early smiled and greeted Zhan Jun. Zhan Jun nodded slightly and continued to look around.
Suddenly, he saw a flash of white in the corner.
Lamia was bored and sitting alone in the corner, waiting for the boring meeting. If it weren't for Jellal's strong request, Lamia felt that it would be better to play war games in the room. She also didn't have any sense of ownership, and those who were full of calculations
In her eyes, all nobles are the ugliest existences in the world.
Lamia, who was sitting alone, didn't realize that she had actually become the most attractive one.
Most of the people who came to the meeting this time were young people. As the next generation of young people in charge of the family, they naturally paid special attention to the cold and arrogant Lamia. However, because most young people were paying attention, no one
The first one to come up and talk.
It wasn't until Zhan Jun appeared that he saw Lamia in the corner for the first time. It seemed strange that Zhan Jun felt his heartbeat for the first time. Zhan Jun, who was already thirty years old, was still unmarried, and many people
They all took the initiative to send all kinds of beauties to Zhan Jun, but he rejected them all. Many people also secretly speculated that Zhan Jun did not like women, but it was actually Long Yang's favor. Zhan Jun never said this
He didn't care about it anymore, until now he saw Lamia, and instantly his eyes shone with sharpness.
With the corners of his mouth slightly curved and a charming smile on his face, Zhan Jun walked slowly towards Lamia.
Many young handsome men who were watching shook their heads insignificantly. If it had been someone else, they might have argued. But the other party was Zhan Jun, and this stopped their thoughts. Not to mention the other party's family background.
Far surpassing him, just the name Zhan Jun is enough to make them give up three points.
"Hello, beautiful lady. May I have the honor to invite you for a drink?" Zhan Jun's gentle words, coupled with his charming smile, are extremely lethal.
However, he happened to meet Lamia.
"do not drink."
These three short words made Zhan Jun's eyes twitch slightly.
The young handsome men who had been paying attention to this place almost laughed.
So personal.
This is everyone's view of Lamia. This is the first time they have seen someone reject Zhan Jun. Moreover, she is also a cold and arrogant beauty.
To be able to appear here, he must be the daughter of some family.
In the Bits area, there is really no noble family as good as the Izzy family, so everyone naturally thinks that Lamia will follow Zhan Jun. But the unfolding of the facts makes people have to suspect that something is wrong with their ears and eyes.
what is the problem.
This scene happened to be seen by Jellal who came in.
Without even thinking about how wonderful Jellal's face would be, he almost got angry at Lamia's words.
Seeing that the situation was a bit awkward, Jellal immediately stepped in, put on a false smile and said to Zhan Jun: "Second Young Master, my daughter doesn't understand the rules, please don't blame me."
Jellal's words made everyone immediately know that the woman in white in front of them was the daughter of the Raleigh Carter family. However, many people were wondering, when did a beautiful woman appear in the Raleigh Carter family? That's not what they are thinking about now.
Now that he knows her identity, Zhan Jun can use more methods.
"It's okay, it's okay. I'm presumptuous. Please forgive me, miss. It's really the miss's beauty that deeply attracted my attention and made me unable to control it." Halfway through the words, Zhan Jun looked at his expressionless face with affectionate eyes.
Lamia seemed to be explaining her inner thoughts.
Jellal was a little embarrassed, and Lamia's reaction made him a little embarrassed. Fortunately, after Zhan Jun finished speaking, he turned around apologetically, leaving space for Jellal.
Seeing Zhan Jun leave, the smile on Jellal's face instantly disappeared. He looked at Lamia's daughter coldly and wanted to scold her, but the current occasion was not suitable, so he glared at her hard.
After that, he put on his false smile again and started talking to others.
And Lamia, as if nothing had happened from beginning to end, was still sitting quietly in the corner, out of tune with the excitement around her.
At this time, two figures appeared at the door of the hall.
As soon as the two people stepped into the hall, the noisy hall suddenly became quiet. Everyone turned to look at the door, and their target appeared.
Yuan Xu and Li Feng are here.~
