After all the research results brought by the alchemists and physicians are displayed, it does not mean that the exchange meeting will end immediately.
Usually, this should be the time when nobles talk to each other.
However, Lord Desinia did not go the usual way.
He was the last alchemist to take the stage to present his research results, but also the first noble to leave the exchange meeting immediately after stepping down.
- There was almost no chance for anyone to say a word to him, and he disappeared without a trace in a blink of an eye.
Orville and Archibald looked at each other for unknown reasons, and after a while, they also got up and left the auction.
On the first night, Fernandi and Valk went out together and did not return.
And two talented alchemists came to visit the Lord of Desinia from the Shire Hall, but they did not go back.
The next morning.
Some people saw Yinke Ken and Felipe Keir walking out of the Shire Hall again, with a slightly gloomy expression, and after they returned to the temporary residence, they began to close their doors.
In the morning, Prince Warner made a sudden visit.
Xia Zuoyi looked like she was going to leave after participating in the exchange meeting, and she couldn't shirk any invitations after that.
But he didn't go, someone came to visit in person and had to think about whether to meet.
After all, some people can be invisible, and some people can't be invisible.
Especially someone with a distinguished status like Warner Gales always has to give a face or two.
The purpose of Warner Gales' visit is that he wants to talk to Xia Zoe about the cooperation between the Imperial Royal Family and the Thorns Chamber of Commerce.
He hoped that the Thorns Chamber of Commerce could also establish a branch in the San Air Empire.
This matter has been allowed by the royal family, but the branch of the Chamber of Commerce needs to pay taxes to the empire after it is established.
Xia Zoe has no opinion.
This is what it should be, but how much tax to pay needs to be discussed in detail.
Not to mention, he wondered why Warner Gales wanted to work with him.
-Let the Thorns Chamber of Commerce be built in the Empire
Isn't the Ed Chamber of Commerce the only one in the empire, and even the Nagabi Chamber of Commerce can't overwhelm it in the San Air Empire...
The general elder of the Ed Chamber of Commerce, Thomas, is narrow-minded, and the fact that he has united some nobles to exclude foreign chambers of commerce is enough to prove.
Not just the Thorns Chamber of Commerce.
Some small chambers of commerce could no longer survive under the suppression and suppression of the Ed Chamber of Commerce, and they would inevitably be acquired after that.
Moreover, if the Nagabi Chamber of Commerce was not strong enough, it would have been unable to operate in the San Air Empire.
Warner Gales told Xia Zoe that old Thomas was short-sighted, and his decisions sometimes reached the point of confusion. The empire needed to control the economy, and the Ed Chamber of Commerce could not be allowed to hinder the development of the empire's finances.
What's more, the only son of the president is also a useless existence.
Naturally, the eldest prince would not speak so directly.
But going around, generally speaking, this should be the meaning, anyway Xia Zuoyi understands that - the Ed Chamber of Commerce needs to further increase restrictions.
And it is not enough to rely on the influence of the Nagabi Chamber of Commerce in the San Air Empire. After all, although the Nagabi Chamber of Commerce is strong enough, it can't hold back the local snakes.
Xia Zoe replied: "The Thorns Chamber of Commerce and the Nagabi Chamber of Commerce have a cooperative relationship, and the Territory of Desinia and the Kingdom of Anas are even more allies..."
"His Royal Highness is not afraid that the Ed Chamber of Commerce will be completely suppressed in the end, and the economy and money of the Saint Air Empire..."
Everyone understands the unfinished words.
Warner Gales said: "In any case, the Royal Family is still standing behind the Ed Chamber of Commerce as a backer."
But the hand of the president of the Ed Chamber of Commerce can't be stretched too long, just like hunting in the Boer Mountain hunting ground... His secret behavior makes Warner dissatisfied.
The matter of the day was investigated in the end.
The reason why the viscount wanted to attack the beast was entirely because of the instigation of the president. Of course, the meaning of the Marquis of Galli is also indispensable.
Warner is dissatisfied with the two people because of their personal hatred and completely disregarding the overall situation. If the situation really develops to a very serious level, they are the culprits who provoked the hostility between Desinia and the Empire.
Neither Warner nor Xia Zuoyi said this, but they probably knew each other.
Xia Zoe understood.
- This is just to use their hands to beat the Ed Chamber of Commerce to make this president more obedient and put the empire first.
Although the Empire allows the Thorns Chamber of Commerce and the Nagabi Chamber of Commerce to jointly suppress it, it will not allow the two Chambers of Commerce to overtake the Ed Chamber of Commerce.
This is a means of win-win between the royal family and Xia Zoe - the royal family needs the Ed Chamber of Commerce to become an obedient dog, and the Thorns Chamber of Commerce can be stationed in the St. Airo Empire.
Xia Zoe finally agreed to the intention of the big prince Warner to cooperate.
While the two were continuing their discussion, a servant suddenly knocked on the door softly, and Judit walked over to open it—
After Judit returned, he glanced at Warner and said to Xia Zoe without lowering his voice: "Lord, Her Royal Highness Princess Lennard wants to visit you..."
Zoey Xia was surprised, and also glanced at Warner.
And apparently, Warner Gales didn't know that his sister was coming to visit a lord... who shouldn't have anything to do with her.
In fact, Judit hadn't finished speaking yet - the people who visited Shazoe were not only a Princess Rhonal, but also Samuel Phoebe, the daughter of the Marquis of Gali.
Xia Zuoyi meant that he didn't want to see him.
A girl who never said a word came to see him, what happened
But no matter what the situation, his absence is a clear attitude.
So Warner got up and said goodbye after knowing what Xia Zuoyi meant, and left before saying, "I look forward to meeting you next time."
In his heart he greatly admired the lord of Desinia.
Xia Zuoyi smiled politely at him and sent the person out in person.
When he came to the door of the Sherry Hall, he stood still.
After watching Warner Gales go out, he stopped in front of two girls in capes - one girl with beautiful blonde hair, and a petite girl with long silver hair.
Xia Zoe stood in the splendid hall of the hall and looked out.
From a little distance, it should be difficult to see clearly, but he suddenly met a pair of eyes with obvious features.
- There was obvious shyness and imperceptible disappointment in those eyes, and when they met him, they were suddenly surprised and happy...
Xia Zoey was stunned.
This heroine... Are you sure it's him? !
Shouldn't such eyes be aimed at the male protagonist Warner Gales? !
However, without waiting for Xia Zoe to think about it, Warner quickly left in front of the door of the guild hall with his slightly disappointed sisters, Lennal and Samuel Phoebe.
Xia Zoey is no longer tangled.
In the afternoon, he took Orville and talked with Archibald about something.
In the evening, Fernandi and Valk came back separately.
They went alone to step on the spot in advance
The route before leaving, the daily duty hours of the royal city guards, how to avoid the stalking of all parties, and the smooth departure from the imperial city, etc...
One person led his subordinates to understand the people recorded in the lord's pamphlet, and moved them with affection.
The ceremony is followed by the soldiers, and if they refuse to obey, they will be bound.
After the exchange meeting between alchemists and physicians, it is still necessary to wait for the research results presented at the exchange meeting to be verified.
Only after this is the time when the alchemists or physicians are confirmed to be recruited by the nobles.
Until then, generally no one will leave.
The day before the research results were verified, Fernandi and Valk led a team of soldiers out again.
At the invitation of Orville and Archibald, Xia Zoe also brought the beasts, the housekeeper and others to leave the Sheli Hall. They are going to a small mountain outside the Imperial City to watch the lake view and hunt...
Until evening, when the Archduke Orville and Prince Archibald came back, Desinia was nowhere to be seen.
This made the distinguished guests of the Sheli Guild Hall puzzled.
Orville said: "He went back."
"Go back? Go back to where?!"
Orville looked at the person who asked the question: "Of course, he left the empire and returned to the Territory of Desinia."
Otherwise, where can you go back.
Gena Cosmo's eyes moved, his eyebrows raised, and his expression was inexplicable.
That person is even more strange: "But tomorrow will be the verification of the research results, and everyone will go to the auction again..."
Archibald raised his mouth indifferently and sneered: "You don't need to worry too much."
"Lord Desinia left early, of course, because he doesn't need others to verify his research results, not to mention..."
What's more, Archibald didn't go on.
And others did not have the courage to ask a prince.
The fact that Lord Desinia left the Saint Air Empire early was really nothing to be concerned about.
But the premise of his leaving early is that he didn't do anything secretly!
…
On the second day, many nobles found that things were a little messy.
In the auction hall, the small meeting to verify the alchemy results was not held on time.
Because the son of the president of the Ed Chamber of Commerce was missing, he did not come back all night.
Of course, it's not unusual for him to not come back all night, because Jared, the president's son, has a lover and recently had a secret affair with a widow.
- It is a common thing to stay overnight and not return home.
However, in the morning, the servant who followed Jared suddenly came back, saying that he was knocked unconscious on the side of the road, and when he woke up, the young master was gone.
Thomas, the general elder of the Ed Chamber of Commerce, was in a hurry.
Afterwards, Thomas the Elder asked the eldest prince for help.
Under the leadership of the Knights of the Royal City, they finally found Jared who was stripped naked and lying on a bed in an old and dilapidated dilapidated house.
But he wasn't alone in the bed.
At that time, the eldest prince Warner, some nobles, etc., the king's knight who broke into the door... When he saw the scene inside the house, his expression was really difficult to describe.
And the face of Thomas, the general elder of the Ed Chamber of Commerce, was even more like being punched, green, red, and ugly.
Because, the person who was also stripped naked and tied face to face with Jared turned out to be the Marquis of Galli.
Their mouths were covered with cloth, and their bodies were close to each other... Although their clothes were stripped off, they were covered with a quilt of moderate thickness, which would neither freeze nor warm.
Under the frowning, inexplicable and strange expressions of everyone, old Thomas finally recovered from the blow.
He was so angry that he stepped forward and untied the rope, and at the same time ordered the accompanying servants to take off their coats and put them on his son to prevent frostbite.
As for Marquis Galli, he could only wrap himself in a quilt for the time being, his face flushed red, and now he just wanted to plunge into the arms of the devil...
"Desinia tied us here!" he shouted in shame.
The servants of the Marquis of Galli were tied up and thrown elsewhere.
Xia Zoe didn't really want to do this.
But it's only their unlucky thing to blame, and that's how it happened.
— Jared gets on with a widow.
The widow Mrs. Ayre, whom the Marquis of Galli has always been close to, happened to know the widow, and they lived not far from each other.
When Fernandi reported the results of the investigation to Xia Zoe, he immediately had this wonderful idea.
The righteous Lord Knight had no objection to this, and acted according to his orders.
Under the propaganda of the president of the Ed Chamber of Commerce eager to find his son, many people witnessed the "sleeping friendship" between his son and the Marquis of Galli.
This is a "scandal".
Warner ordered people not to be publicized.
But they agreed on the surface, but they used it as a talk behind the scenes, so it didn't take long for the upper class nobles to know about it and laughed secretly.
The Marquis of Galli ended up being home ill, and Jared, the president's son, didn't want to go out during this time.
In addition, the relationship between Thomas, the general elder of the Ed Chamber of Commerce, and the Marquis of Galli once dropped to a freezing point.
This is something.
After Warner led the King City Knights to find people, the verification of the alchemy results always had to be explained—they went to the auction, but immediately, they found that some alchemists were missing.
Especially those two young genius alchemists.
The two alchemists had been at home since they left the Sheli Guild Hall, but no one answered the door when they knocked on the door. After kicking the door and entering, it was already empty.
Warner and others had to start thinking after turning around. Have all these alchemists been taken away by Desinia? !
At this time, the chief steward of the Ed Chamber of Commerce came.
He just went to ask Master Chebman Norton.
But the place where the master alchemist lived was no longer there, not even his apprentice Begin, the servants, and even some important alchemy items and daily necessities in the room were gone.
"Won't Master Norton also be taken away by Desinia?!" Someone exclaimed.
"Bang" sound.
The President of the Church, Thomas, was instantly fainted and fell to the ground.
