Noble Emblem

Chapter 945: 946 Nobles also need to be reformed through labor

Views:

In Beta's 'home', there is quite a high degree of research on human psychology, vision, and even color matching. And many commercial activities that serve people have also emerged as a result.

For example, jewelry design.

Different from this world, there are many highly educated women in the 'hometown', and their IQs are definitely not low. But as long as they have money, they will definitely pay a so-called 'IQ tax'.

Even such a group of women with high knowledge and high IQ can't resist the charm of modern jewelry, let alone this magical plane.

After the sensation of the first day, all the jewelry in the new jewelry store doubled the price.

Regarding the questions from the outside, the jewelry store dealt with it on the grounds that it was a half-price big bargain on the first day

This move made all the nobles feel like their wallets were crying, and the ladies were very depressed.

Only the few people who bought the jewelry yesterday were overjoyed.

Many nobles checked the origin of this jewelry store. If the background is not enough, they don't mind secretly occupying it. But upon investigation, it was found that all the evidence indicated that the source of the jewelry store was the City Lord's Mansion.

Can't afford it, can't afford it.

All the nobles who thought about it immediately suppressed their thoughts. The big businessman originally suspected that the jewelry store came from the main city, but now it's just confirmed.

Jewelry does not mean that the quality is poor, but that it can attract customers if it is cheaper.

Those who can afford jewelry are rich people. Rich people pay more attention to a 'style'. It’s the same jewelry. At the banquet, I wear more expensive, better and more beautiful jewelry. Even if the quality is only a penny higher, it is a big win, and the other party is a loser.

During the entire banquet, the other party will be suppressed by him.

In other words, with the pearls and jades from the new jewelry store in front, it would be meaningless for the big businessman to continue to open this shop, and not many nobles would come to his shop to buy jewelry.

Although there will still be some business in the old jewelry store, it is almost impossible to make money lying down.

Seeing that the jewelry store was empty, the big businessman slapped himself heavily: "I shouldn't have believed in Sharp's nonsense back then."

Then he hurriedly prepared presents and wanted to meet Beta. In the end, he was stopped by the guards who had confessed earlier, and said with a sneer, "You, a businessman, can see the city lord whenever you want?"

Only then did the big businessman realize that he was really nothing.

The business of the other two nobles also encountered obstacles at this time. Many nobles, as well as rich merchants, have noticed the current situation of these four people.

They were all watching a play, and they were all gloating.

The counterattack of the City Lord's Mansion completely complied with the rules. The other party did not use force or act recklessly. As for the harm of public opinion, it was also Sharp who made the first move, and the city lord just counterattacked legitimately.

Everything was within the rules, so the nobles didn't feel sad about the death of the rabbit, but felt that the City Lord's Mansion was already very restrained.

Otherwise, it would be a very simple matter to crush these four people to death with just a giant dragon.

With great power, but still able to act according to the rules. Such a high-ranking person will give people a good feeling. At least you won't worry about being killed by someone inexplicably.

Almost all the nobles knew about Sharp's ambitions. At this time, the entire upper echelons of Woking City were watching how Beta would bring Sharp down.

The methods and means used by Beta determine what kind of policy the nobles will use to get along with the high-level officials of Woking City in the future.

In the study of the City Lord's Mansion, Beta listened to the report of the special intelligence organization of the temple.

"One of Viscount Sharp's guards is missing. In addition, we found a maid who escaped from his house. She was beaten badly, almost to the point of death."

Beta asked: "What are the identities of the disappeared guards and maids?"

"The guards were brought by him from other cities, they should be his slaves. The maids are citizens of Woking City."

"How about the maid's damage?" Beta raised her eyebrows.

"It's miserable." The Dark Temple guard reported, "If she hadn't improved her physique from farming since she was a child, she would have died. Several bones were broken."

"Protect her, give her enough treatment, and tell her that I will support her and let her testify against Viscount Sharp."

"Understood." The Dark Palace guards withdrew.

Xue Li was beside her and said with a smile, "I thought you would support the guards."

"It's okay to support in private." Beta said lightly: "But now we are wrestling with another force on the surface. The guard is a slave, and the master does have the right to kill him, so he can only be temporarily put aside. The breakthrough, It can only be the maid who is a citizen."

"I understand." Shirley stood up: "I'm going to secretly create momentum now."

Sharp was very upset at this time, he did not expect that he would be hit further. At this time, his focus is still on fighting Beta's public opinion attack, and finding ways to resolve the suppression of weapon stores.

After much deliberation, he had no choice but to find someone to form an alliance with. As a result, all the nobles rejected him.

"A bunch of cowards who don't know how to unite."

Sharp felt very humiliated and extremely annoyed.

He was so angry that he couldn't sleep, and almost killed a guard. Now the servants in the entire manor are already terrified, and no one dares to make a sound.

Only his lover, who was his former young daughter-in-law, dared to bring a glass of calming medicinal wine and said, "Viscount, it's time to drink the medicine."

At dawn the next day, he finally felt drowsy, and when he was about to take a nap, he heard the guard say in panic: "Master, it's not good, our manor is surrounded by city guards."

Sharp's hands trembled, and he exclaimed, "This is impossible. Beta is the pope, so it is impossible to openly violate the teachings of the goddess."

"But our estate is really under siege."

Sharp said angrily: "I'll go and see, but I don't believe that Beta dared to openly violate his principles of fairness."

He took the guards and went downstairs angrily, and found out that the manor was surrounded.

And there was a beautiful woman with butterfly wings floating in the air.

Everyone in Woking City knew her, one of the Pope's women, Judy.

"What did I do that deserves Ms. Judy's own hands to arrest me?"

Sharp knew that if he wanted to kill himself, they would have done it long ago.

"Ms. Emma's decree, the Lord Sharp hurt others maliciously. Now that you are accused, since you are a nobleman, please go to the city hall. Convict in court."

Sharp was trembling with anger: "I am a nobleman, you are insulting me."

"Because you are a nobleman, there is a process of court conviction. Otherwise, you will be directly arrested and sent to prison."

"it is good!"

Looking at Judy's cold eyes, Sharp laughed angrily: "I'll just see how Beta judges me and what reason he uses to judge me."

Sharp was first taken to a small room in the city hall. He was not restrained, but simply let him stay, and there were fruit wine and delicacies to entertain him, but he just couldn't leave.

Sharp understands that this is house arrest in disguise.

He knew that he had lost this time, but he just didn't understand why Beta would rather let the reputation of wealth be dusted than deal with himself.

At most, he just wants some power, so he hates it so much

After much deliberation, I couldn't figure it out, and it passed in the morning.

At about three o'clock in the afternoon, Sharp was invited out again and escorted out.

Is this a so-called public trial? Sharp was a little scared, but also a little angry. He felt that it would be a good thing to exchange his own death for others to look down on the Wealth Sect.

Anyway, I have lived enough.

When Sharp was brought to the hall of the city hall by Judy, he was surprised to find that it had been arranged in the shape of a synagogue. Many wooden benches were temporarily moved over, and sitting in front of the slightly higher main stage was Angel.

The judge is not Beta

Seeing Sharp being brought in, there was a coaxing sound in the hall. Angel hit the countertop heavily with a wooden hammer: "Quiet."

The hall suddenly fell silent.

After all, Angel is a dancer with high charisma and can easily attract the attention of others.

Sharp looked at the observation booth, there were at least a thousand people watching him.

And the first few rows are all familiar or quite familiar nobles. They stared at Sharp with a kind of schadenfreude.

Sharp was taken to the back of a small table on the left, and above the table, there was a magic circle in operation.

Angel knocked on the table and continued to shout: "The prisoner has been brought, now let the victim come on."

Sharp saw a woman in black walking out of the small door opposite. The woman had a clear nose and a swollen face, looking extremely miserable.

Gordon's heart skipped a beat.

He finally knew why he was arrested, and finally knew that there was something wrong with him.

This maid is not his slave.

"Now the first public trial meeting begins." Angel read the lines taught to her by Beta: "In the future, the nobles will be convicted in this way when they break the law. Before the trial begins, we must introduce one thing to everyone. The prisoner and the victim The magic circle on the table in front of the person is a lie detector, if someone tells a lie, it will turn red for four seconds."

Sharp's face turned livid.

There was an uproar in the hall.

In this way, Sharp didn't even have a chance to slander him.

The next thing is very simple. Under the influence of the polygraph, Sharp pleaded guilty before even ten minutes. He knew very well that any resistance would be futile in the face of lie detection.

Afterwards, Sharp was convicted of 'intentionally seriously injuring others'. One hundred gold coins were fined, one of which was the public trial fee, and the other ninety-nine gold coins were paid to the victim.

Such a large amount made all the nobles tremble. The civilians who came to hear the trial, even the businessmen, all cheered on the spot.

That's not all. Sharp was also sentenced to five years of labor reform, the first nobleman to be reformed through labor.

The results of the public trial spread throughout the city within a day.

The commoners had a carnival that spread throughout the city, while the nobles were all in mourning.
