Lord of Arcane

In today's Daxia Territory, the status of scribes does not allow them to ride on the heads of ordinary people. In other words, under the Daxia Territory's order, no one can be superior to others based on their own merits. At least scribes are far from reaching this level. .

The clerk's revelation of his identity only allowed Lao Qiao and others to confirm the authenticity of the territorial cooking competition. Some other guests who knew the clerk were not even the least bit surprised.

"I don't know when this cooking competition will be held. I will urge my kid to prepare well when I go back. If I am lucky enough to get some rankings, I will treat everyone to a drink."

Old Qiao took a sip of soju, drew a large circle in front of him with his hand, and expanded the scope of the treat again, but he didn't care at all.

If his son could represent his territory and go to the Elf Kingdom to be a chef, he would be more than happy to even entertain a few people in a tavern, let alone treat a few people to drinks.

In the tavern, someone raised an eyebrow, and the topic quickly turned to the territorial cooking competition. However, the news that has come out so far, including the announcements that may have been posted on the bulletin board, only mentioned such a thing, and did not mention it. No further details are available.

For example, the competition format, competition content, judging methods, and even the situation in the Elf Kingdom, etc.

So these have become the subjects of speculation among the drinkers in the tavern. Those who have children or brothers at home who are learning to cook are naturally more willing to inquire about it, while those who have no relatives or friends who are learning to cook are more likely to just watch the fun.

……

At the same time, inside the headquarters of the Mingshui Chamber of Commerce in the old town of Sevington.

Said took the latest briefing from his subordinates, flipped through it twice and quickly closed it, then quickly walked to a quiet courtyard inside the headquarters. As soon as he entered the courtyard, a cold female voice came out——

"Said, are you here because something happened in the south?"

"Both, President, please take a look at this briefing first."

With that said, Said had arrived outside the study room where Jenna was. At this time, the door of the study room opened. Said walked in and put the briefing he brought on Jenna's desk.

Jenna picked up the briefing and only turned one page when her face showed anger, "These worms are so unwilling to restrain themselves and they actually want to resist the general trend! Who gave them the courage!"

After turning over two more pages, his expression did not clear up. After reading the entire content, he returned to his original calm state, "The people from the Tower of Time were attacked on our territory. This matter is big or small. Please do it on your behalf." I went over in person to express my condolences.

"By the way, let's take a look at who is instigating those morons. Over the years, I have given everyone in the Chamber of Commerce ample opportunities to perform. Does this make them think that I am weak and can be bullied?"

"President, calm down. It's not like this. It may be that some directors at the headquarters are a little selfish, but most of them are good."

It's okay that Syd didn't say that, but Jenna was even more annoyed when he said that, "You mean you know who is behind those moths?"

"This--"

"Humph."

Jenna did not force Syd to say a specific name. She knew that everyone had feelings after working together for so many years. Indeed, as Syd said, some people are more selfish than others.

But who doesn’t have selfish motives?

For example, she herself used the resources of the Chamber of Commerce to promote the Mingshui Coin, and in order to ensure the gold content of the Mingshui Coin, the Chamber of Commerce would lose some money every time a new coin was minted.

After such a long time, the elders and directors of the Chamber of Commerce have already complained a lot.

But this was all within a reasonable range. Although the elders and directors complained a lot, they did not really oppose this plan, and even strongly supported her. The reason is simple. The losses caused by the introduction of the new currency are far less than the benefits it brings to the chamber of commerce.

But those moths are different. Under the banner of Mingshui Chamber of Commerce, they dig into the corners of the Chamber of Commerce and dig into the foundation of the Chamber of Commerce. This has a completely negative impact.

Even if they brought benefits to the Chamber of Commerce earlier, they are still far from being able to compensate for the losses they caused to the Chamber of Commerce.

In addition, this time people from the Tower of Time were involved, which pushed Jenna's patience to the limit. Even if Said didn't say anything, she could roughly guess who was behind the worms.

After all, we have worked together for so long, how could we not even understand this.

……

"Shall I go now?" Said asked.

"Wait a minute, I received a request from Sha Duo to go to Everesca. If nothing else, it should be to discuss the bidding for mineral development in the Gray Peak Mountains. I may not be at the headquarters for a period of time. I have something to ask you. Please give me a reference."

Jenna hesitated for a moment, and finally decided to ask Said for reference. She and Said were apparently related to each other as the president and chief advisor, but Said actually had another identity that was not known to many people, and that was ——

A friend of Jenna's father, and also Jenna's first teacher on the Offa path. However, Jenna has outstanding talent, and Seid himself has his own affairs to be busy with. Jenna later learned more from the princess's teacher Byron. .

In addition, Jenna can become the president of the Mingshui Chamber of Commerce with the support of Said. Jenna's father is just an ordinary secretary of the Mingshui Chamber of Commerce. Logically speaking, even if Jenna is talented, her status as the president of the Chamber of Commerce It can't fall on her head either.

But who made Jenna later become Byron's student and become classmates with the princess!

As for the Grand Arcanist, it was achieved after Jenna became the guild president, and it was not made public for quite some time. It can be said that Jenna may have taken this position with some external help at the beginning, but afterwards she relied on her of talent.

But from another perspective, although Jenna is the controller of the Chamber of Commerce, she is not the 100% owner of the Chamber of Commerce. The development of the Mingshui Chamber of Commerce to this day is not due to Jenna alone.

Before Jenna took over, the Clearwater Chamber of Commerce was already a well-known large chamber of commerce in Netheril. Jenna brought the Clearwater Chamber of Commerce to a higher level, which does not mean that she has ownership.

The ownership of the Chamber of Commerce is divided among several elders and directors, and of course Jenna also has her own share.

……

Of course, Syd would not refuse Jenna's request, "What do you want me to refer to?"

“I want to reform the Chamber of Commerce!”

"Reform the Chamber of Commerce?"

Seder was stunned for a moment, then subconsciously blurted out, "Do you want to kick out the elders and directors?"

"No, some directors are still very competent, and the Chamber of Commerce still relies on them! And the reform I am talking about has little to do with the elders and directors for the time being." Jenna replied.

Seid knew that he might be mistaken, so he asked again: "What reform is that?".

"Don't you think that our Chamber of Commerce headquarters has too little control over the branches below? Let's not talk about it from afar, but just recently, those few moths dared to openly attack the headquarters messengers. It is conceivable that they have many hidden secrets. What's going on!"
