Princess Carolyn's introduction to Xu Yi only lasted half an hour. When the convoy was about to drive into the main base of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, the road was blocked unexpectedly.
Seeing a specially modified magic car blocking the road ahead, and two men in uniforms standing next to the fiery red magic car, Princess Caroline and Marquis Southgaard looked at each other. At the same time, there was a hint of doubt.
This fiery red magic car was clearly the one Seymour bought in Fellowes City.
When we headed from Heimi City in the Hemi Wasteland to the Principality of Standing today, Seymour followed the convoy obediently at first, but before he was halfway through, he lost his temper and left the convoy on his own. Speed up the road and get away from the convoy.
Since the route from Hemi City to the Principality of Standing was simple, there was no need to worry about him getting lost. In addition, he had already perfected his driving skills during this period, so the Marquis of Southgaard simply let him go. I don't want to restrict him too much.
But now he was stopped. Why
Princess Caroline glanced at the two young men in uniform and frowned slightly: "These two are security guards of the Principality of Standing. It seems that Viscount Seymour may have committed something."
"Security officer?" Marquis Southgaard looked at the two young men in surprise and motioned to the driver in front to drive over.
The convoy stopped next to Seymour's fiery red Magic Car. Seymour, who was sitting in the cab with a disdainful expression, quickly opened the door, avoided the two security guards, and rushed over.
"Uncle Dayolun. These two guys dared to block my car! I must teach them a lesson!"
Marquis Southgaard's face darkened slightly. He glanced at him unkindly. Then he looked at Princess Carolyn, with a hint of questioning in her eyes.
Princess Caroline pondered for a moment, nodded and said: "Your Majesty, please let me handle it."
"good."
Princess Carolyn got out of the car and walked towards the two security guards.
The two security guards originally had angry expressions on their faces, but when they saw Princess Carolyn getting out of the car and walking towards them, they were immediately frightened by her appearance and were stunned for a moment.
"Two security guards. Hello." Princess Carolyn smiled sweetly, pointed sideways at Seymour behind her, and asked, "Can I ask why you stopped my friend? Did he violate the law? What rules?"
The two security guards stared blankly at Princess Carolyn at first, but when they heard her ask this question, they immediately woke up. One of the slightly fatter security guards coughed lightly and quickly regained his composure. He said sternly: "Madam, your friend just drove a magic car on the road without complying with the regulations, and therefore hit another medium-sized magic bus that was moving. This caused the magic bus to roll over due to damage. , many passengers in the car were injured. After the accident, your friend did not wait for treatment and fled directly. According to relevant regulations, we must return him for investigation."
"Hit and run?" Princess Carolyn frowned deeply, turned to look at Seymour, and then turned to look at Marquis Southgaard, looking a little embarrassed.
The Marquis of Southgaard saw the look on her face and came over.
"Did something happen?"
The Marquis of Southgaard has been in a high position for a long time, so he naturally has an aura of majesty. The two security guards are also well-informed. They saw at a glance that he was not an ordinary person, so they did not dare to neglect them and explained to him in detail what happened. .
After hearing this, Marquis Southgaard's face completely darkened. He turned his head and glared at Seymour. Then he pondered for a moment and said to the two security guards: "You two, this is my nephew's fault. I will take his place." "I would like to express my sincere apology to the passengers on that vehicle and offer compensation to those who were injured as a result of this incident."
The Marquis of Southgaard waved to an attendant behind him. Without saying a word, the attendant took out a bulging money bag from his arms and handed it over.
"There are one hundred gold coins here. I think it should be enough as compensation for those passengers."
The two security guards looked at the money bag and then at the Marquis of Southgaard, with surprised expressions on their faces.
Marquis Southgaard smiled and said: "Don't be surprised. In order to express my sincere apology, one hundred gold coins is not too much."
He didn't notice that Princess Carolyn on the side had an extremely strange look on her face after hearing these words.
The two security guards also had strange looks on their faces. After looking at each other, the fat security guard coughed lightly and said to Marquis Southgaard: "This... Sir, do you think a hundred gold coins is a lot of compensation?" ?”
Marquis Southgaard was suddenly stunned: "Isn't that much? From what you just described, most of the passengers only suffered minor injuries, and only one of them had a fracture. I think one hundred gold coins is enough to compensate for their losses."
After a pause, he continued: "Okay, if one hundred gold coins is not enough, then I can add another fifty gold coins. As for my nephew, because we have urgent matters, it is not convenient for you to take him back for investigation. "
The slightly fat security officer gave a bitter smile, shook his head and said: "Sir, I must tell you, let alone one hundred gold coins, or one hundred and fifty gold coins, even five hundred gold coins are not enough to compensate your nephew for his death." The damage caused in this accident. And according to regulations, we must take him back for investigation, and we ask for your cooperation."
Marquis Southgaard's eyes widened slightly in surprise: "Five hundred gold coins are not enough? How is this possible! Five hundred gold coins are even enough to buy ten strong slaves!"
The slightly fat security guard frowned: "Sir, are you not from our Principality of Standing? Let me tell you that there are no slaves in our Principality of Standing now. Your metaphor is inappropriate. And to tell you the truth, Five One hundred gold coins is really not a big amount. I am sure that each of the injured passengers on the Magic Bus Locomotive could earn at least two hundred gold coins a year. With so many people injured, plus the Magic Bus Locomotive itself. The loss suffered is far more than five hundred gold coins."
"Everyone can earn two hundred gold coins a year?" Marquis Southgaard was completely surprised. "Is this... is this possible? They are just ordinary civilians?"
Princess Carolyn on the side couldn't stand it anymore. She coughed lightly, took a step forward, and said in a low voice to the two security guards: "Two of you, to be honest, these two are the distinguished president Xu of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce. Customers, I hope you can be accommodating. Regarding the loss compensation, no matter how much it is, we will pay it truthfully.”
After saying that, Princess Carolyn took out a golden ticket from her arms and handed it over.
"Here are one thousand gold coins. If it is not enough, you can contact me at any time through the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce." After a pause, perhaps because she felt that such empty talk could not achieve any effect, Princess Carolyn hesitated slightly. After a while, he continued: "I am Princess Carolyn from the Duke of Drake. I think you should have heard of my name."
The two security guards opened their eyes wide and shouted in disbelief: "So you are Princess Caroline! No wonder you are so beautiful! Oh my God! I actually saw Princess Caroline with my own eyes! This is so lucky !”
Princess Carolyn smiled slightly: "Thank you both for your compliments. Then I would like to ask you two... Can we leave first? President Xu should be waiting for our arrival now. Regarding the aftermath, you can always contact the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce contact us."
"this… "
The two security guards looked at each other, and the fatter security guard pulled the other security guard. The two went to the side and muttered a few words. After a while, the fat security guard came back and asked Caroline County The host said: "Your Highness, please wait a moment with your companions. We are trying to get in touch with President Xu and let him decide how to deal with it."
"Contact President Xu?" Princess Carolyn frowned. "This is still some distance from the main base of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce? Then won't we have to wait here for a long time?"
"Sorry." The slightly fat security guard smiled, but did not show any accommodation.
Seeing their resolute attitude, Princess Caroline had no choice but to accept it and walked back to the Marquis of Southgaard.
"My lord, Marquis, I'm very sorry. Let's wait here for a while. They are in contact with President Xu."
"How do you contact President Xu here? If you send someone back, it will take a long time to come back?" Marquis Southgaard obviously thought of the same problem as Princess Caroline.
"Uncle Dayolun, why should we listen to them and wait here? Just leave. Do they really dare to attack us?" Seymour came over and said nonchalantly.
"Shut up!" Marquis Southgaard scolded him angrily, but he couldn't say anything more. After all, he was just the son of his old friend, not his own son, and he could teach him a lesson at will.
After thinking about it, he had no choice but to nod and say: "Okay, we are guests after all, so we still have to respect President Xu as the master. This is fine. Maybe by handling this matter, we can deepen our mutual understanding with President Xu. understanding of time.”
Seeing the smile on Marquis Southgaard's lips, Princess Caroline's heart trembled slightly.
Xu Yi has always hoped to promote the magical machinery of the New Flying Chamber of Commerce to the entire continent, so the two empires of Candela Empire and Malo Empire will certainly be the two most critical parts.
The progress of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce in the Kandra Empire seems to have been not smooth, but now by chance, it has gained the attention of Marquis Southgaard from the Malo Empire, and he has the opportunity to promote the products of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce to the Malo Empire. .
If Xu Yi handles this matter poorly this time and causes dissatisfaction with Marquis Southgaard, it is very likely to affect Marquis Southgaard's evaluation of Xinfei Chamber of Commerce and Xu Yi, causing Xinfei Chamber of Commerce's products to enter the market. The Maro Empire was hampered.
"Xu Yi, you must seize the opportunity this time."
Looking at the Marquis of Southgaard who had regained his composure and sat back in the magic car to wait patiently, and then looked at Seymour who looked impatient on the side, Princess Carolyn secretly prayed in her heart. (To be continued...)
