Arkham in the pirate world

"This is brought back by the person who found the body." The old housekeeper signaled, and a guard took out a wooden sign.

Blair William glanced at it and saw that the reason for the murder and the identity of the murderer were written on it.

"He's not dead"

Blair William finally remembered who that person was, and his chest hurt even more. The old housekeeper helped him and whispered, "Young Master must be steady at the critical moment."

The old butler's reminder made Blair William's eyes narrow.

Old Blair has quite a few children. Besides him, there are also children, none of whom are considered illegitimate children or illegitimate daughters.

The outstanding ones among these children are each responsible for a certain aspect of the family affairs.

Because old Blair has always been in good health, he did not designate a family heir. According to his idea, he gave them the opportunity to compete with each other and choose the best one.

However, the sudden death of old Blair has left the Blair family with a difficult problem, who will inherit it?

"I have written a will in the master's handwriting. This is a ring that symbolizes the family's rights." The old housekeeper said.

The transfer of power in a large family will obviously not be that simple. Blair William discovered that foreign enemies were no longer important to him. The top priority was to successfully take over the power left by old Blair.

Now, if we follow what Blair Gordon said and let someone attack Yamor, wouldn't that be causing trouble for ourselves?

Arkham Chamber of Commerce Headquarters.

In the top-level office, Liszt was writing documents. When he heard that Crowe had come to report the news that Blair Gordon had been attacked and killed, he was stunned for a moment. He raised his head and asked Crowe, "Our people did it."

Crowe pushed up his glasses slightly and said, "No, our people didn't have time to take action."

When he learned that Blair Gordon was heading to the royal capital, Crowe sent someone to intercept him.

The current plan to close the net will certainly not give him a chance to struggle.

"My men set out from the royal capital and when they arrived, Blair Gordon was already dead." Crowe described the situation.

"Daniel Longe" Liszt smiled and said, "It seems that there are people in the Kingdom of Levis who don't want the Blair family to stand up, and they are more anxious than us."

Lister shook his pen and said, "Resolving the leader, Levi's Trading Company, will fall into chaos for a period of time. Until a new leader is elected, we can also free up our hands to carry out internal reforms."

"Don't we take the opportunity to expand?" Crowe asked.

"Expansion. Blind expansion is not necessarily a good thing. This time, many of our internal problems were exposed, all caused by rapid expansion."

Liszt put down his pen and said, "You can't reach the sky in one step. You have to build the stairs first and go up step by step. Don't be impatient. You did a good job this time."

Leveraging the power foundation of the Blair family was Crowe's strategy. He was keenly aware of the contradiction between the king and the finance minister.

At first, Liszt did have plans to use the pirates. He and Crowe had an argument. It wasn't until he met Koushiro and heard his understanding of power that he suddenly woke up and agreed to Crowe's plan.

The Saatchi was an accident. After meeting Ufloch, Lister immediately saw the opportunity to disintegrate the relationship network of Levis Trading Company.

As long as the reputation and image of an enterprise or group collapse, the partners surrounding it will stay away from it, seeking advantages and avoiding disadvantages.

This method is too common in other worlds.

mid-October.

The Arkham Chamber of Commerce issued a statement that Mr. Arkham, the president of the Arkham Chamber of Commerce, joined the Kingdom of Levis and paid taxes to the Kingdom of Levis in accordance with the law.

In late October, King Levis XVI granted Arkham the title of Viscount Lister, and the fiefdom included the seven southern parts of the sea area where the Minada group and the naval branch were located, including the previous four.

Throughout October, Liszt was busy socializing, and the kingdom's established nobles all offered olive branches to the upstart.

Although everyone knows that Liszt's title is sold for money, there are still many families who want to build relationships and get married.

What's wrong with the purchase? I have money.

Aristocrats are not suitable for food

However, Liszt declined one by one. He was not used to dealing with nobles, especially the old nobles who had a long history. He had a natural sense of superiority towards the "new nobles" who spent money to buy them. In their words, they had ancient blood. Pure, I don’t know how pure, there are piles of ridiculous things among the nobles, and they support many families who rely on them.

Liszt became Viscount, and the Arkham Chamber of Commerce was in high spirits. Even the ordinary employees seemed to be elated and straightened their backs.

As for the Zhumenada group that became Liszt's fiefdom, as well as the seven villages in the south, all the villages and towns were decorated with lights and colors, and the people cheered and cheered, as happy as the New Year.

Incredible

No, this is aristocratic rule, deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.

For employees, working for businessmen and working for nobles are two different concepts.

For example, if the toilet is cleaned by a businessman, a noble, or a king, the smell will be different when others smell it.

When you go out, girls will ask you where you work. Oh, I work for a noble man, I work for the richest man, I work in a big company, and I suddenly become taller and taller. Girls should look at you more. Eyes, this is the effect of celebrities and famous brands.

As for the people, first of all, the Arkham Chamber of Commerce has indeed brought benefits and income to everyone during this period, and they feel that they can succeed with Mr. Arkham.

Secondly, in the past, the Zhuminada group was basically in a no-care zone. Everyone went out and didn't know which country they were from, and anyone dared to bully them. Now that they have become a viscount fiefdom, they have a sense of belonging and an organization.

Finally, it’s rare to have a reason to have a carnival, so naturally you have to take advantage of it. After all, life in the world is too boring. Every day after dark, villains are created, and no one can support it. That’s why the bar business is so booming, with a lot of men stabbing each other. Bragging there was actually just a glass of wine in the middle of the night.

Regarding the knighthood, the Arkham Chamber of Commerce and the Levis Royal Family each took what they wanted.

The Kingdom of Levis stipulates that nobles have a high degree of autonomy over their fiefdoms.

In other words, now Liszt has truly gained the right to rule the Zhumenada Group and the Seven Southern Dao.

The price is naturally a large amount of tax paid to the Kingdom of Levis every year.

King Levis received the tax money from the Arkham Chamber of Commerce, which was enough to get rid of the financial constraints of the Blair family. He was able to display his ambitions and plan his own country. At the same time, he took advantage of the situation and included the Minada group into the territory of the Kingdom of Levis. For him, he had made a lot of money. If Liszt had not refused, he would have wanted to marry his daughter to Liszt.

Some people make money, and some people lose money.

The Blair family fell into internal strife. Not only did Blair William have to fight for inheritance rights with his half-brothers and sisters, but his uncles and even his children were also involved. The huge family property was arousing jealousy.

The Levis Merchant Elders Chamber of Commerce and the Levis Royal Family began to compete for the vacant position of president.
