Chapter 381 Nangang County II
"Earl Detta, Little Rose, Dean, here!"
The old butler led the way, passed through the gate of the castle, the corridor, and the two barracks, and stopped outside a corridor - this is naturally not the study of the Emerald Duke. bi.ch.chinese.net.first.published
Just a small conference room.
"The information His Highness left for you, Little Qiangwei, contains information about the Pirate Alliance this time... Dean, you can check it too!"
The old housekeeper said.
He didn't treat Dean as an outsider at all.
The old lady sat quietly at the side, holding a cup of black tea brought by the old housekeeper. Obviously, she had already read this document.
It took about ten minutes for the Archduke Swordsman to finish reading the information and pass it to Dean.
After Dean took the information, he began to read it carefully, and then, Dean divided the entire information into three parts——
First, there are two hijacked chambers of commerce.
One is the Locke Chamber of Commerce, and the other is the Sailing Chamber of Commerce.
The former is a small nobleman, while the latter is a pure merchant organization.
There is no special connection between the two, and they have always kept themselves safe, so the possibility of joining forces with pirates can be temporarily ruled out.
Secondly, after investigation, it was found that the person who sent the letter was a thief from Nangang County.
A guy who took risks after receiving a large sum of money from Kimpton.
At this time, he has been locked in the dungeon of the old castle.
Finally, and the most important point: rumors began to spread in Nangang County this morning that the former Pirate King was not dead, but seriously injured. And now he's healed to deal with. Once again gallop this piece of sea area.
Also because of this rumor. Grand Duke Emerald will take it to sea.
After all, if this rumor is allowed to spread, it is difficult to guarantee whether the so-called pirate alliance will really revive.
And the way to break the rumors,
Naturally, it is to find the source - the pirate king!
See if the other party is really as badly injured as rumored, or someone faked it!
Dean handed over the materials he had read to the old housekeeper again, and then. Sit back to the original position——
"Dean, what do you think?"
The old woman who had been drinking tea suddenly spoke.
"Which aspect?"
Faced with this kind of question, which obviously meant to test the school, Dean didn't answer directly, but asked rhetorically.
Although this is not a battle between life and death, Dean is very clear that this is another test after the "Flame Orchid"'s test of force.
A test of unexpected events mixed with observation, wit.
Simply put, it is a test of ability.
If it doesn't pass this time. Then he can only be cultivated as a high-end combat power - Dean does not reject this result. On the contrary, if there was no Blood Moon War, he would be happy to see such a situation.
However, it was precisely because of the Blood Moon War that he needed to prove that he was not only suitable for a 'fighting general', but also able to act as a 'commander' alone.
"Oh, Dean, do you have a lot of ideas? I'd love to hear them!"
The old woman looked at Dean in surprise, and then asked instinctively.
The old butler on the side was also a little surprised, but the next moment, the old butler said with an encouraging smile: "Tell me in detail, you don't need to worry, young people are at fault, it's not that young people are wrong, it's just Because of experience problems!"
Obviously, this is a kind old man.
He was paving the way for Dean's possible mistakes.
The archduke swordsman who has been with Dean the longest has a plain face-she knows quite well what kind of abilities Dean has besides his own talent and strength.
After smiling gratefully at the old housekeeper, Dean said slowly——
"First of all, the source of the rumors - where they come from, I don't think that an unfermented rumor will become known to the whole city in one day!"
"Secondly, the thief who delivered the letter—whether it was out of desperation or not, it's too early to judge now!"
"Finally, I think those two chambers of commerce should be checked carefully!"
After Dean finished speaking, the old butler nodded appreciatively, indicating that Dean was right.
This is not excessive boasting, it's just that Dean, a nineteen-year-old young man, has such a cautious attitude and should be praised.
However, the old lady was extremely strict, and even asked contemptuously in the sentence: "Of course I will send someone to find the source of the rumors—but, facing the pubs, restaurants, Hotel, can’t I catch them all back? And the thief who delivered the letter, after going through such torture, I don’t think he would lie! As for the last point you said, the Locke Chamber of Commerce is the foundation of the Locke family , and the Sailing Chamber of Commerce is the same, and they have stayed in Nangang for more than 50 years, there is no possibility that they will be spies of the Pirate Alliance!"
"Catch them all? No, it's not necessary at all. We just need to find the teacup in it, and the thief's interrogation can also be done in another way. As for the two chambers of commerce, merchants are after profits, as long as they have higher interests , they can sell everything - is that my point of view, or... do you think I'm all wrong?"
Dean looked at the old woman with a smile.
"It's not wrong, it's just that I don't think you can do it!"
The old woman said with a smile.
"I can't do it? Please explain your meaning in more detail!"
Dean narrowed his eyes, and didn't lose his mind in the slightly sarcastic words of the other party, but just looked at the old woman with a very calm look.
"I'm short of someone here - I think you're a good fit, Dean! It's easy to talk, but if you just talk and don't do it, everything is empty and empty. I think you should act Say everything you say!"
The old woman's aggressive method continued.
"Practice to show? Why am I doing this?"
Dean looked at the old woman and shrugged without being fooled at all.
"Are you worried about failure?"
The old woman's words fell silent.
"No, no, you don't understand me—you know I just got a new title?"
Dean asked with a smile.
"'Duel Butcher'?"
The old woman was taken aback.
"Yeah. Things that don't do any good. I won't do them!"
Dean nodded.
"Loyalty to His Highness. Also for benefits?"
The old woman sneered.
"No, no, this is not for His Highness's allegiance, but you asked me to do it - if His Highness ordered me, of course I would not say anything, but you?"
Dean smiled and didn't continue.
However, the meaning couldn't be more obvious—are you qualified? Or what qualifications do you have to assign me to do such a thing?
"Good! Good! Good!"
The old woman who clearly understood the connotation of Dean's words looked at Dean with an exasperated smile. Stretch out your finger and point it in the direction.
"Then I'll give you an advantage—the Seymour United family is brewing a conspiracy about the position of the head of the family... If you can find useful clues in this pirate alliance incident, I will report everything truthfully!"
The old woman restrained her anger and said slowly.
"Is there a conspiracy about the position of the Patriarch in the Seymour United Family?"
When Dean heard such words, a light flashed in his squinted eyes, and he smiled lowly: "So, can I understand that this matter is inextricably related to you? ?”
"As you guessed!"
The old woman raised her teacup without explaining at all.
"But. What does that have to do with me?"
Dean leaned back, and then. Said lightly: "It's not that you think I'm Zelgang, so you should accept the Seymour United Family? If you really think so, then I need to consider whether the rumors about you on loan are true—— My grandfather's generation left here and entered the Emerald Mountains, where my family's 'ancestral house' is still there! There is everything in Zelgaon, not here!"
After owning an armed fleet, Dean was naturally envious of the seamanship of the Seymour United Family.
However, Dean is more aware that with the title of 'Zelgon', it is impossible for him to obtain anything——
The title of the frost elves has long since disappeared with their disappearance.
The Frost Queen is no exception!
Although the so-called Frost Nobility still exists, Dean, who has read the notes in Zelgaon's 'ancestral house', is naturally clear about the attitude of the Frost Royal Family.
If these Frost nobles really had a sense of awe, then it wouldn't be Zelgaon's 'ancestral home'!
Therefore, Dean, who wanted to obtain that share of navigation skills, was not naive enough to exchange for it with only a misty name of Xuewu.
"What else do you want?"
asked the old woman.
"I want to make the instructor 'free' - I hope you will stop meddling in the instructor's affairs, and let her have the right to choose herself, instead of letting the family make decisions!"
Dean said slowly.
"Dean!"
The Grand Duke Swordsman at the side was startled immediately, and subconsciously exclaimed.
"As much as I would like to hear from you, if there is a chance to settle everything--I think I'd do it for you... You are a good man, and cannot do such a thing; but, If I'm a 'butcher', naturally I don't have any worries!"
Dean looked at the archduke swordsman with a smile.
"Although I am very grateful for everything you have done for Etris, what are you going to pay? I don't think the price is too light, and I can top Etris!"
The old woman looked at Dean sharply, and the silver-level aura began to erupt.
"The instructor is 'free' at any time. I have no intention of using the instructor as a bet. However, I have not corrected your thinking-the value of a silver-level powerhouse is difficult to estimate, but I am willing to Make a promise, a promise that doesn't violate my bottom line, my beliefs!"
Under the breath of the old woman, Dean had no influence.
"A promise from you..."
"Yes, a promise of mine, a lifetime promise—I'm nineteen years old now, at what age do you think I'll reach the gold level?"
Dean interrupted the old woman's sneer, and he added slowly.
Suddenly, the entire meeting room fell silent because of Dean's words.
