Laura walked around the study room restlessly. For her, what Buffy brought back was really bad news.
She sympathizes with the Buda family, but now that Buffy has failed to complete the task, this is definitely bad news for her, which means that the Versailles family may be in civil strife.
If not for this time, the Versailles family would have been in chaos at other times, but at this time, it really cost lives. This not only affects the Versailles family, but also concerns the thousands of people in the Versailles Principality.
Thousands of civilian families.
Kun Zheng was also sitting in the study with a frown. He really didn't know what to do in this situation. They wanted to get involved, but if they didn't do it right, they would fall into this vortex, getting deeper and deeper.
.
But the problem is, if they don't participate, as long as things come to an end, they will be the first to suffer the consequences, so they have no choice but to participate.
But there is a difference between participation and participation. When and how to participate is the most critical. If the opportunities, formulas, and methods are correct, they can not only protect themselves, but also get the maximum benefits.
At this moment, a servant ran in from outside, bowed to Laura and said: "Miss, I just received the news that the Xinya family and several other big families have taken action, but they have not raised food prices, and have sent
I went to contact the second and third elders of the Versailles family."
Laura frowned, waved her hand and said: "Go down and continue to investigate. If there is any new situation, come and tell me immediately." The servant responded, bowed and retreated.
Laura turned to Kun Zheng and said: "Grandpa Kun Zheng, what do Xinya and his family want to do? Do they want to help the second elder or the third elder to take over?"
Kun Zheng nodded and said: "I'm afraid this will be the case. If the second elder or the third elder really forms an alliance with them, they can even give up this food price increase action, as long as they can get these two elders to
If one of them is promoted to the position, they will get the strong support of that elder, and then they will be able to dominate the entire market of the Principality of Versailles. These guys are really good at calculating."
Laura frowned and said: "Then what should we do? We can't just wait like this, right? That would be too detrimental to us?"
Kun Zheng's eyes flashed and he said: "Wait? Of course we can't just wait, otherwise we will only become more and more passive, and we may even be squeezed out by them in the end. Don't look at the fact that we helped Versailles with the food issue.
It's useless to just hope that they can be grateful to us. Those guys don't care whether you help them or not. As long as there are enough benefits, everything can be sold. What we have to do now is to talk to Fansai.
We have to contact someone from the Versailles family to support him. Even if he cannot take the position, we must give him a certain say in the Versailles family so that we can keep our business."
Laura was stunned and said: "Who? Now I'm afraid it's someone from the Xinya family who has already come into contact with the second elder and the third elder. It's too late for us to go now."
Kun Zheng smiled slightly and said: "Don't forget, there is another person in the Versail family. This person also had power before, but later his power was reduced in order to help the Buda family. Isn't now a good opportunity?"
Laura was stunned, and he immediately thought of who Kun Zheng was talking about, the nominal head of the Versailles family and the grand duke of the Versailles principality, Ivan.
Ivan's previous power was not much worse than that of the Great Elder, but because he was young and had little experience in political struggle, and because he helped the Buda family, his power was divided and compressed by the Great Elder and them. In addition,
During this period of time, he lived in seclusion and paid no attention to worldly matters. He completely turned into a wooden person and a decoration, so Laura really didn't think of him at first.
Kunzheng looked at Laura and smiled slightly: "In recent times, Ivan has completely fallen silent. People seem to have forgotten his existence, but isn't this what makes him so clever? Is it true that he has real hands in his hands?
Doesn't he have any power at all? No, although his power has been compressed a lot, it has not been completely eliminated. He still has some power, but he has been too tolerant in recent times, and people have forgotten his power.
exist."
Laura thought for a while and said: "It seems to be true. Since the fall of the Buda family, Ivan has been very low-key, so low-key that people have forgotten him, or regarded him as a decoration. If he hands
If Li really still has strength, let's give him a hand, and he might be able to step onto the stage again."
Kun Zheng smiled slightly and said: "That's exactly what I mean. Now it's best for us to divide our forces into two groups. Regarding the meeting with Ivan, Miss, please don't come forward. It's too public and the goal is too big. Just let me do it. You now
Go see Mr. Zhao Hai immediately. You must explain the situation here clearly to Mr. Zhao Hai and ask him to make preparations."
Laura nodded and said: "Okay, I'll go right away. I'll ask Grandpa Kunzheng for Ivan's place." After that, she led Nier out.
Just when all the big families in Casa City were staring at the Versailles family, people suddenly discovered that Laura had left the city in a carriage and headed straight for the Rock Mountain.
Laura's departure from the city made those big families relieved. To be honest, they had already become enemies with Laura, but they did not dare to touch Laura, not just because Laura was from the Majidel family.
People, and because behind Laura stands a black magician with unfathomable strength.
These big families also know that the Versailles family sent people to deal with Zhao Hai. It is impossible for such high-level people to truly hide secrets. It is precisely because of knowing that these people feel Zhao Hai
The sea is terrible.
Jialan is an eighth-level expert who has long been famous on the mainland, and he is also a white mage who is the nemesis of the black mage. He is accompanied by so many masters. In this case, they were destroyed silently. Zhao Hai
His strength is truly terrifying.
As for the relationship between Laura and Zhao Hai, they all know that Zhao Hai saved Laura's life, and then Laura helped sell everything produced by Zhao Hai. They have become an alliance.
In this case, offending Laura is equivalent to offending Zhao Hai, and Zhao Hai is the black magician they least want to offend.
These people thought that Laura went to Zhao Hai just to tell him about the current situation in Casa City. These people were not worried at all about this and just said go, as long as it does not hinder their plans.
When Laura left the city this time, she not only told Zhao Hai about the situation in Casa City, but also attracted the attention of those big families, making it easier for Kun Zheng to get close to Ivan.
Laura moved faster this time than the previous times. It only took less than half a day to reach the foot of the rocky mountain. Zhao Hai also received the news. As soon as Laura arrived at the foot of the mountain, Green immediately picked up Laura.
Arrived at the mountain.
After Zhao Hai took Laura to the living room and sat down, he was not polite and said directly: "Miss Laura is here this time about the Versailles family, right? I heard that the Versailles family seems to be a little small now.
trouble?"
Laura had already experienced Zhao Hai's intelligence capabilities, so she was not surprised. She just smiled bitterly and said: "I'm afraid it's not a small trouble, but a big trouble."
This really made Zhao Hai stunned. He didn't know much about the inside story of the Versailles family. Even Green and Merlin didn't know either.
Zhao Hai said in confusion: "Isn't it just to cancel the engagement, and then try to kill someone but it doesn't work? What else is there to trouble with?"
Laura smiled bitterly and said: "It would be great if it was just like what Mr. said. He doesn't know that the Versailles family may be in civil strife this time."
Zhao Hai frowned and said, "Really? Please tell me carefully."
Laura nodded and said: "In the Versail family, the head of the family originally had the greatest power, and then there was the family's Presbyterian Council. The purpose of the Presbyterian Council's existence is to supervise the head of the family. Once the head of the family made a major mistake, the Presbyterian Council
He has the power to impeach the head of the family, but now the head of the Versail family, Grand Duke Ivan, does not have much power. Ivan was still very young when he became the head of the family, and Caesar, the great elder of their family's Presbyterian Council, was in the Versail family.
It has been in business for many years and is very powerful. Ivan has little experience, so Caesar took the opportunity to reduce a lot of power. Later, I heard that Grand Duke Ivan had a relationship with the Buda family. When something happened to the Buda family,
, Ivan secretly helped the Buda family. Because of this incident, his power was compressed again and again. Now he no longer has much power. The power of the Versailles family is concentrated in the hands of the three elders of the Presbyterian Church.
, among them, the Great Elder Caesar has the greatest power, the Second Elder Youyin and the Third Elder Sayers are even less powerful." At this point, Laura paused and looked at Zhao Hai.
Zhao Hai's face was hidden under the magic robe, and Green's face was blocked by the armor. Of course she couldn't see it, so naturally she didn't notice it. There were shocked looks on the faces of Zhao Hai and Green.
Especially Green, Green has always hated Ivan because Ivan had a relationship with Adam's father. Finally, when their family was in trouble, the Versailles family came to make matters worse. He thought that all this was instigated by Ivan. Now
Only then did I realize that Ivan had paid such a high price to help them.
When Laura saw that the two of them were silent, she continued: "And this time the steward of the Buda family suddenly appeared in Casa City, wanting to break off the engagement with the Versailles family, and Caesar saw that Green, the steward of the Buda family, actually
Already a strong man at the top of the eighth level, he was afraid that Greene would break through to the ninth level in the future to retaliate against them, so he wanted to ask Buffy, the patron saint of the family, to kill Greene. However, he did not expect that Greene was carrying an ancient magic tool and was run away by Greene.
, and then Buffy went to the Black Soil Wasteland to hunt down the Buda family, but no one was found. This made Caesar very passive. You must know that it is a big deal for the family to take action to protect the gods. This time, it was Caesar who strongly advocated
However, it was not successful in the end, which was a big blow to Caesar. However, other large business houses in Casa City took this opportunity to take the initiative to contact Youyin and Sayers. It seems that the civil strife in the Versailles family is inevitable.
