What about the hereditary nobles of Dorset? Dorset is nothing more than a second-rate country. You must know that Downton personally destroyed Wigan and Somerset. As the number one general in the north, Dunkford was under his leadership.
He is already the head of a third-rate country, not to mention that his rumored girlfriend is Princess Sissi, and most of Lombardy is likely to be in his pocket as a dowry!
By the way, His Royal Highness Di Lanxue is not the only one who has been rumored. Many people saw Roland Saint Lily actively kissing Downton in the Lion Square in Paris. The charity banquet they heard when they entered the city is also a testimony. In short, among others,
The relationship between them is very close.
"You are such a traitor, you are always disobedient and you have caused me so much trouble!"
As soon as Marquis Ashley rolled his eyes, he raised his foot and kicked his son's knee with such force that it shattered the kneecap and bent the calf at ninety degrees.
"Father, I was wrong, and I will apologize to Lord Downton!"
The eldest young master is ruthless and flexible, and he will not hesitate to humble himself for the benefit of the family.
"Duke Downton, please forgive the rudeness of the dog. If he knew it was you, he would never dare to disobey your will!" The Marquis bent very low with a flattering smile on his face, "I will leave him to you.
, you can clean it up as you like, even if you chop it into pieces and feed it to wild dogs, it doesn’t matter.”
The onlookers were all shocked by the Marquis' ruthlessness and decisiveness. It's no wonder that his family can have the power it has now. It was all washed out with blood, sweat and dignity.
Downton looked at the Marquis and said nothing.
The Marquis just bent over and kept bowing to apologize. He was retreating in order to advance. You must know that Downton killed the heirs of the Hohenzollern and Dupont families before he knew Princess Sissi.
A bastard like me probably doesn't even have the qualifications to be an opponent in people's minds.
"If Downton can't calm down, he will have no choice but to sacrifice his son!"
The Marquis has many wives and naturally many sons, but only a handful of them can become talented. Even if the eldest young master is of average talent, he will not take him out for training, but for the future of the family, when it is time to sacrifice, he will never
Soft-handed.
Ashley probably also guessed his fate, gritted his teeth and endured silence.
"Lord Marquis, this is just a misunderstanding!"
Downton's lips overflowed with a smile, and he helped Marquis Ashley with his own hands. He wanted to silence the murderer, and eradicate the roots. However, the attitude of the father and son made him decide to let them go. His recent life has been too comfortable.
Now, he needs some enemies to motivate him.
"Sir, I will donate all the proceeds from the Ashley Business Group to the Free Trade Zone this time. Improving infrastructure can be regarded as some of my contributions to everyone."
The Marquis is quite good at talking. It would be difficult to bribe Downton openly, but donating to the free trade zone is actually no different from putting it into Downton's pocket, but it sounds much more elegant.
"Then I'd better obey your orders and thank you on behalf of everyone!" Downton said unceremoniously. "Tonight I will host a banquet for all the business group bosses. Please be sure to honor it, Your Majesty the Marquis."
"sure!"
The Marquis breathed a sigh of relief. He had given all his face and dignity to Downton. If the other party continued to refuse, he would have no choice but to give up this way of making money.
Downton wanted an enemy, but he never thought that the Marquis was the kind of versatile guy. If the enemy was not as good as himself, he would definitely crush him to death, but once the enemy was several times greater, he would shrink his head and act like a grandson.
In the Marquis' mind, Downton is the kind of giant who cannot be messed with, so his plan is doomed to fail.
Downton didn't know it yet, but with his current power, reputation, and backing, he had become one of the new generation's forces that should not be underestimated. Although he did not come from a wealthy family, at the age of twenty-two, he had the power to dominate the entire country.
Frankfurt, who controlled a population of more than 10 million, was a complete dictator. With just one word from him, what broke out was a war, not a petty fight between families.
"Master, please move, I will have the Green Island Hotel cleared out now to prepare for your stay!"
The district chief looked humble and wished he could lie on the ground all the time.
Hearing this, a series of exclamations resounded around them. The Green Island Tavern is the largest gold sales den and the most luxurious entertainment venue in the Free Trade Zone. Its daily net profit is as high as millions of gold coins. Now, because of Tang
When the time comes, the venue will be closed and cleared.
"Well, let's arrange the banquet at Green Island. Remember to prepare invitations so as not to make people feel neglectful."
Downton wants to give those bosses vanity.
As an official facility, the Green Island Hotel naturally has many conveniences. Not to mention the perfect services and conditions, just the name 'official' is enough to attract businessmen, not to mention the district mayor.
Post new news in the tavern regularly.
In order to photograph the district chief's horse or obtain first-hand information as quickly as possible, a large business group directly requested a guest room at the Green Island Tavern. The longest lease period was even five years.
Of course, with the shrewd minds of green goblins, they would not do such stupid things. Those who are eligible for five-year leases are all large business groups from the nine empires with assets of more than one billion gold coins. Not only are they expensive,
There also needs to be trade relations.
Downton's words made the onlookers excited. Those with some strength were anxious and wondering whether they would receive an invitation. Those without strength began to think of ways to spend a lot of money to get one.
, no matter what, if you can talk to Downton and big businessmen, you might be able to establish a network of contacts.
For businessmen, having connections means making money.
"Is he okay?"
Downton looked at the pale-faced Garfield boy.
"Nothing serious, just a little bit of excessive blood loss!"
Elaine glanced at Ashley and gave Downton a questioning look. The other person apologized humbly. Should he get some treatment?
"Let's go to the hotel!"
Downton didn't care if it hurt him to death. Just because he scolded Elaine and didn't let the ogre explode his anus, it was already a sign of his magnanimity.
"Sir, walk slowly!"
Watching Downton leave, Ashley breathed a sigh of relief.
"Marquis, you look so ugly like this. Why are you afraid of him?"
Someone joked.
"Aren't you afraid? Why don't you go scold him?" The Marquis sneered, "He is a generalissimo, and he destroyed our family with just one hand."
As soon as the words "Generalissimo" came out, no one dared to talk nonsense anymore. Everyone was a little uninterested. To be fair, if they were in the position of the Marquis, they might be more unscrupulous than him. In order to save their lives, they might have to sacrifice their wives and daughters.
They would all strip off their clothes and give them to Downton as gifts.
"You are also an old subordinate. There is no need to be so humble!"
Downton chuckled and encouraged him a few words. He did a good job and couldn't even find faults.
"The slave is terrified!"
Goblins never call themselves subordinates, they are all slaves. In their view, being Downton's slave is higher than official position, even if you become the finance minister.
boom!
Accompanied by the sudden explosion, a huge plume of smoke rose into the sky from the northwest, interrupting the conversation between Downton and the district chief.
"Walk!"
The defense here was too weak, so Downton did not dare to leave Elaine behind. He took her arm and used the air dance technique to fly to the location of the incident.
The long street was half empty. In addition to the goods scattered all over the floor, there were also a dozen unlucky people who were affected by the battle. They were injured and fell to the ground. They wailed and struggled to crawl out of the battle circle.
More than a dozen mercenaries are laying siege to Xiao Hutao, recruiting for their lives.
"court death!"
Downton shook his fist and launched his Overlord Fist. While punching down more than a hundred heavy punches, he also pounced on the enemy.
boom!
Downton punched out and hit a man. Magic energy and shock waves poured into his body crazily, directly blasting him into a ball of flesh and blood.
"what happened?"
Downton frowned, these guys are not low in strength. If they don't come prepared to slay dragons, they will meet the undead.
"They're going to kidnap me!"
Little Walnut was very angry.
"Nonsense, it was obviously you who broke our antiques, we just want to take you to your family to ask for compensation." The leader of the big man roared angrily.
"You are talking nonsense. If I hadn't had an idea, I would have been kidnapped by you and I would never see my brother again."
Hutao waved his Balrog hand and smashed a guy's head into a rotten watermelon.
"Is this how you educate your children? Don't you apologize if you make a mistake?"
Seeing the constant casualties among his subordinates, the big man scolded him with a face filled with anger.
It was Downton's iron fist that responded to him, and Elaine also began to bless the two with auxiliary magic.
With full firepower, Downton was unstoppable, and in an instant he overturned two-thirds of the mercenaries.
"Damn it, you unreasonable lunatic!"
The big man roared.
The security team arrived. They all took off their crossbows, cocked them and pointed them at the big man.
"Look, everyone, this is the Hand of the King in Frankfurt, a guy who protects his shortcomings!"
The big man wanted to arouse public outrage and accuse Downton. Unfortunately, even though there were many people watching, no one agreed. Downton's fighting power really frightened them, especially the halo on his head, which represented the generalissimo.
of steps.
"Tell me, who sent you to kidnap Xiao Hutao?"
Downton asked sharply.
The big man was dumbfounded. When he saw Downton questioning without hesitation, he thought the plan had been exposed, but then he realized that this guy just made an excuse and planned to kill himself.
"withdraw!"
Seeing that Downton was not fooled, the big man teleported into the crowd and evacuated at full speed.
Bang! Bang!
Black smoke exploded, blocking sight, making the crowd even more panicked, and making it impossible for Downton to pursue.
"Big brother!"
Little Walnut walked over, lowering her head, as if she had done something wrong, and did not dare to look at Downton.
"Okay, be smarter from now on!"
Downton ruffled little Loli's hair.
"Yeah, the eldest brother is the best." Little Hutao smiled broadly, hanging on Downton's body like a koala, "You are so smart, how did you find out that they were harboring evil intentions?"
"It's not normal for so many people to besiege a little girl. I was just trying to scare them. I didn't expect them to be frightened. Besides, they knew I was the Hand of the King and yet they dared to take action. The intention is self-evident!"
Downton shrugged his shoulders. The opponent was too ruthless and even killed children. It showed that he was not a good person, so it didn't matter whether he had an answer or not. He would kill these people. (To be continued...)
