"Boy, it's not a good thing to know too much. If you can't give me a satisfactory answer, you will disappear from this world starting from today."
Looking at the cold-faced old man in front of him, panic flashed in the young man's eyes for a moment, and then he said words that shocked everyone:
"You can't kill me. I am of great use to you because I am a clansman of the former young city lord's fiancée. I..."
Before the young man finished speaking, Tusir's hand had already loosened his grip. This young man turned out to be a member of Avril's tribe? Is this too much of a coincidence? Could it be a scam?
But at this moment, another hand appeared silently behind the young man. With a snap, the young man fell down. This hand picked up the young man. At the same time, Tusir's ears rang.
Ling Fei’s words:
"Old Tu, why are you standing there in a daze? Let's go back first. Anyway, the boy already knows our identities. We can't let him go back and talk nonsense no matter what. Oops, I didn't expect that the words "Qian Jinshi Horse Bones" are true.
Not only did I buy horse bones, but I also caught a huge fish... What an unexpected bonus! Hahaha..."
On a dark night, the streets of Bobo City were brightly lit. Only the road to the east of the city was slightly deserted. After experiencing various conflicts for several months, the Kunil family finally ushered in temporary tranquility. However, in
Behind this peaceful night, there are conspiracies brewing one after another.
In the middle of the deserted road, a gorgeous carriage drove slowly. Occasionally, when residents passed by and saw the sign on the carriage, they would respectfully step aside and bend down to salute. Through the car window, Ling Fei could feel these people.
The respect comes from the heart, the respect is pious, this feeling is wonderful.
Pulling up the window, she turned around to see Emma's angry eyes. Yes, any well-educated family would not allow a girl from the family to share a carriage with a man of unknown origin, and to be treated by such a brat.
Lying on her lap made this little girl who thought she was a lady even more hysterical.
Ling Fei turned his head away, completely ignoring the girl's eyes, and then smiled at Mo Ni:
"It seems that the Kunil family has a pretty high status in the minds of these poor people."
Mo Ni said calmly: "We are merchants. In the eyes of us merchants, there is no status, so they are all our customers, that's all."
"Oh? Really? I suddenly want to understand why the city lord's palace would take action against your family?"
Ling Fei suddenly said this.
"Why?"
Moni frowned and asked.
Ling Fei said seriously:
"Because of the people's hearts, as a ruler, it is extremely dangerous if he does not get the sincere support of the people under his rule. Therefore, they generally have two choices, one is to bribe and the other is to intimidate
, what you are doing now is bribery, which has shaken the interests of the City Lord's Mansion, so they will take action against you."
Hearing Ling Fei's words, Moni unexpectedly smiled. Ling Fei saw the word "fool" in her watery eyes.
No, this is definitely an illusion. I claim that only an invincible genius can guess wrong. Is that impossible?
Seeing the disdain on Ling Fei's face, Mo Ni explained, "Indeed, if Bobo City is a country and the city lord's mansion is really the ruler of this territory, maybe your idea is completely true, but don't
I forgot that the continent of Terra is ruled by the nine apostles.
No matter how courageous Van Helsing is, he will not do such a thing to seek death. What's more, compared to prestige, the prestige of the City Lord's Mansion is much higher than that of our Kunil family. Maybe we are indeed very prestigious in the eyes of the poor.
But after all, it is not as good as the City Lord's Mansion, which can bring ten thousand years of peace to Bobo City. In this world, only the strong and powerful can convince others."
At this point, even Mo Ni herself became silent. Isn't the family's current situation caused by her own incompetence? If she could also become a saint or a lord, would the family still be at the mercy of others?
Moni asked herself over and over again, but the answer she got was the same every time. Although she knew the answer, she was unable to solve the problem in a short time, which made her frustrated.
After looking at the still unconscious boy, Moni asked Tusir:
"Elder Tusir, you two have been mysterious and secretive since just now. Ling Fei likes to show off. Don't you know our current situation?"
It was rare for Tusir to feel a little embarrassed on his face, but he knew the importance of this matter and refused again after all:
"This matter is of great importance. It's better to wait until the family can discuss it later."
Tusir's meaning was obvious, this would prevent the walls from having ears, but Ling Fei smiled and said:
"Old Tu, you underestimate City Lord Fan Haixin too much. With his character, as long as we don't take the initiative to leave Bobo City, he will not guard us tightly. You can call him conceited or arrogant. He
He has never regarded us as opponents, only as prey. Precisely because we are just prey, he will not kill them all as long as the prey is still in the hunting circle."
Ling Fei's words were very straightforward, so straightforward that even Mo Ni felt a little bloody, but this was the real relationship between them and Van Helsing, the hunter and the prey.
"Of course, maybe he will be a little afraid of a strange prey that suddenly breaks in, but he will eventually show his true nature."
As for the last sentence, Ling Fei seemed to be saying it to Mo Ni or talking to himself, which made everyone confused.
"Back, back, the eldest lady and the elder are back!"
Just when a few people fell into silence, a shout of surprise came from the distance, and then they heard a group of people carrying lanterns rushing to the carriage.
I heard Boole's voice coming from outside the carriage:
"Miss, two elders, you are finally back."
Moni said calmly: "Well, Captain Bull, thank you for your hard work. How did you do what I asked you to do?"
"Reporting to the eldest lady, I have arranged all the members of the inner court according to your request, but..."
From Bull's hesitant tone, it could be heard that he seemed to have something to say.
"Just what?" Mo Ni asked coldly.
"The eldest lady must be tired after a busy day. Why don't we let the eldest lady go home first?"
But it was the voice of the old butler Del.
Just at this moment, a discordant voice sounded:
"I said, Old Del, don't meddle in your own business here. Since the eldest lady asked, I would like to ask the eldest lady, isn't it a bit unreasonable for you to order Buer to expel warriors from our branch from the inner courtyard? We
But we came here to support the security of the owner and prevent anyone from snatching the dragon scales. Now, as soon as the auction is over, the reporters kicked us out. Isn’t it a bit heartless and unjust for the owner to do this? "
