After all, it is not the solstice in Liyue, so Pantalone’s office here is actually not too big. Measured in Liyue units, it is only a house that is two feet six feet long and one foot eight wide. In addition to the floor space
Apart from the huge, well-stocked bookcases and various small round tables, there are only a few dark leather chairs for entertaining guests.
Famas preferred to call this place a study room rather than an office. The gramophone in the corner of the room was spinning slowly, and the elegant and mellow music flowed in the small room at just the right volume. Considering the quiet dark-toned decoration style of the study room,
, the slow music appears very stylish and oppressive.
This is especially true for debt collectors who are reporting on the progress of their tasks.
"If my understanding is correct..."
After listening to the report, Pantalone leaned on the back of the suede chair, gently tapped the edge of the sandalwood table with his index finger, and summarized the entire incident in a concise and concise manner:
"Are you saying that the experimental materials sent by the doctor to Inazuma had an accident and that they had to use the Northland Bank's secret route to enter Xumi and then be transported by sea from Ormos Port to Inazuma?"
The banker's narrowed eyes made it difficult to discern his attitude, while the debt collector's supervisor lowered his head and spoke in a particularly humble tone.
"I'm very sorry, Mr. Pantalone, we really have no choice. Because of Mr. Master, the border defense at Liyue Port has been strengthened five times, and the customs inspection of winter goods has been more than a little stricter. Damn Qianyan Army
He and the Liyue Maritime Affairs Department even had to open the cotton bag and go through it several times..."
"This batch of materials was ordered by the rebels on Haiji Island. They have had nearly twenty years of business contact with the laboratory. Now that they have broken the contract, I am afraid that the doctor will also be included in the distrust list by the rebels, and it will be difficult to do business in the future.
For the benefit of the Winter Country, I can only turn to you now!"
The unknown debt collector lowered his posture and bowed again towards Pantalone's position.
He was originally a field employee affiliated with "Doctor" Dotore, the second executive officer of the Fools. He was responsible for maintaining the transportation of materials to Liyue factories and laboratories, and had relatively broad powers. However, the accident that occurred during this transportation was obviously
It was beyond his control, so he had to seek help from the "rich".
Although the upper echelons of the Fools are well aware of Dadalia's actions, after all, it is related to the ownership of the Heart of God. The young master's action plan and information are absolutely confidential to the ordinary soldiers of the Fools.
The inspector has no right to know.
It wasn't until Dadalia awakened the sleeping demon and mobilized soldiers to attack Qunyu Pavilion that the inspector responsible for maintaining material transportation changed the transportation route belatedly. If he hadn't reacted quickly, the batch of materials traded by the doctor would have been lost.
The red-eyed Qianyan Army stopped and seized it long ago.
"You have stayed in Daozu for a long time, and you have learned the Daozu people's apology etiquette."
Hearing Dotore's name, Pantalone frowned and thought for a moment before reluctantly nodding.
"Then send the goods directly to the Port of Ormos. The route will be through the Tiangong Gorge in the south of the Strata Abyss." Pantalone thought for a while and added, "If you can't go through the Fu'ao Valley, don't go there.
, that is the entrance to the Great Layer Rock Abyss, and there are more Qianyan Army patrolling there.”
After all, Dotore is his partner, and he can help his colleagues when necessary to safeguard the interests of Northland Bank.
Seeing that Pantalone agreed to help, the debt collector inspector, who had always remained humble, finally breathed a sigh of relief and spoke again with lingering fear: "Then what if the Qianyan Army left behind in the Layer Rock Abyss finds out..."
"You want me to teach you about this kind of thing?"
Pantalone raised her hand and rubbed the center of her brow, deciding that after completing this foreign assignment, she would go back and ask a certain slicer weirdo how he recruited these field personnel.
"Make some disguise for the goods, stuff them into a drum, a piano or something else. If you encounter an emergency, hold on. Don't feel guilty or exposed. If you are discovered, you will kill them without knowing it. Don't worry, when the time comes
The fools will send someone to deal with it."
"clear!"
The inspector obviously heard Pantalone's impatience. The biggest problem has been solved now. There is really no need for him to stay here to trouble the executive officer. So he exited the study after loudly replying and prepared to follow Pantalone's instructions.
work.
After the debt collector inspector left the study, Famas turned to Pantalone and waved the sticky cake in his hand, indicating if he wanted to try it. The big banker, who had just dealt with the idiot, obviously had no appetite and shook his head in refusal.
Famas's kindness.
He didn't expect Famas to come back. He was about to ask him how the confrontation with Morax was going, but unexpectedly, after the young man stuffed the last piece of bean cake into his mouth, he patted the crumbs on his hand and said vaguely.
Unclear opening:
"Well...if there is an emergency, how will the fools deal with it?
Perhaps because the two have reached a temporary contractual relationship, or perhaps because they have figured out each other's temperament, Pantalone's attitude towards Famas was much more casual, and she even winked at the boy innocently after hearing the inquiry.
.
"I'm really sorry, Mr. Famas, I'm not very responsible for field missions...it's usually the job of Xinora and Dadalia to deal with the plan after it's revealed."
When Famas heard the names of the lady and the gentleman, he knew the consequences of the debt collector's incompetence. He followed Pantalone's example and tilted his head and asked: "I thought you were a good person?"
"I didn't expect you to have such pure values."
Pantalone seemed to have heard a big joke, shrugging her shoulders and making a deliberately surprised expression.
"I just provided a solution to the poor man who asked for help. I did nothing but talk... Compared to my colleagues who kill without blinking an eye, I can indeed be called a good person."
"If you were really a good person you wouldn't get involved in smuggling."
Famas cleared his throat, put his arms on the long solid table, and mysteriously poked his head towards where Pantalone was sitting, "By the way, what are you smuggling?"
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "...It is a half-finished artificial eye of God. Inazuma is still executing the eye hunting order, and many forces in the country are fighting fiercely. Even though
The price of an extinguished Eye of God is astonishingly high, let alone an artificial object with no usage restrictions."
Pantalone answered Famas' doubts without any trouble, and Famas also instantly realized that the experimental materials transported by the doctor may be the evil eye used by the Inazuma resistance in the future.
However, before he could ask any more questions, there was a gentle knock on the side door of the study, and the butler Russell appeared quietly carrying two schnitzel sandwiches and coffee.
The old butler spread the white tablecloth on his arm and placed one of the meals in front of Pantalone.
And the other copy naturally belongs to Famas.
According to the work schedule of the solstice, it is now breakfast time. Although Famasi has already finished the pastries donated by Baizhu and scattered the crumbs all over the table, he still informed the housekeeper in advance that he wanted to order a portion with Pan.
Same breakfast as Taronne.
So this nutritionally balanced meal was served by Russell. The crispy and juicy cutlet was sandwiched between sweet and soft bread, and the slightly sweet and sour sauce was the essence to avoid a greasy taste.
"Thank you for your hard work, Russell."
Pantalone sat at the dining table and nodded reservedly towards the butler.
"Master, this is what I should do."
Russell responded very humbly, and then retreated behind Pantalone to wait for instructions.
Pantalone was obviously used to the butler's presence. He picked up the coffee and took a sip. In an instant, the rich aroma and light bitterness filled his mouth.
Famas, however, was not in a hurry to enjoy the meal, but instead turned his attention to the butler behind Pantalone.
Ordinary people can control the elemental power through the evil eye, and temporarily possess the power of the chosen ones, but the price is the rapid consumption of body functions. Untrained mortals can even move from the prime of life to old age in one day.
’s twilight years, until they burn out like fireworks.
This kind of damage is difficult to avoid and extremely difficult to reverse. Even if you escape from the horror of life, unnatural aging will cause countless diseases.
