Ultimate Assassin System

In a country where the kingship is supreme, the nobles always have some unbelievable privileges.

For example, in the middle of the main road of Laiyan City, there is a jade road surrounded by small stone piers, with few vehicles on it, which looks very empty. But no matter how crowded the surrounding lanes were, there was no vehicle walking on this empty road. This is the noble lane.

The so-called aristocratic lane, as the name suggests, is the road that only noble carriages can take. This is the road built by nobles to show their special status and prevent luxury carriages from being scratched.

If a civilian vehicle comes up and is caught, it will face a fine, car impoundment and detention.

At this time, a carriage marked with a golden lion head logo was driving unhurriedly on the aristocratic driveway. Most people in Laiyan City recognize this symbol, because it is the family emblem of their lord, Earl Robert's family.

Bevan, who left the Vincent party early, was sitting inside. At this time, he was holding a cup of steaming strong tea. After the heat, his shaved face was slightly reddened. Although he didn't stay long at the party, he was really toasted a lot.

Although a little dizzy, Bevin is still in a good mood at the moment. He is very satisfied with the harvest of today's gathering.

Of course, it was impossible for him to pass by the manor, and the nobles present would not think so. They only thought that the relationship between the Robert family and the Derk family was close enough.

And this is exactly what Bevan wanted to achieve. He was optimistic about the strength and potential of the Derk family, especially with one more magician.

In Bevin's eyes, Vincent is nothing more than a dandy, but now that this dandy has good luck, he is very likely to marry a magician. In this case, this dandy will be useful. So today he used Vincent as a breakthrough point to express his kindness to the Delk family.

Naturally, the Derk family would not reject the olive branch thrown by the second son of the mayor. This is a win-win situation.

It's one step closer to success... Bei Wen sipped his tea and thought comfortably.

There are no secrets among the nobles, and those noble youths who eat, drink and have fun know the news of the expansion of the dock. How could Bevin not know.

In fact, he was the first group of people in Laiyan City to know the news.

He clearly remembered that in the afternoon, his father, Earl Robert, called him to the study, handed him the official document on the expansion of the pier, and patted him on the shoulder and said,

You have done a good job these years, and you have achieved a lot. You are much better than your good-for-nothing brother... But if you want to be the city lord, this capital is not enough. I am about to step down, and I only have suggestions for the next city lord The decisive key is the votes of all nobles in Laiyan City.

Your capital is not enough, but now is an opportunity to expand the pier. I have talked to the elders in the family,... If you can achieve results in this, you will win benefits and glory for the Robert family. The family will fully support your boarding The location of the city lord...

Bevin is in his thirties this year, and it is the time when he has a strong desire to grab power. Of course, he does not want to miss this opportunity. So ever since he knew the news, he had been secretly preparing.

Of course, the nominal ownership of the wharf belongs to the country of Bran, and Laiyan City pays taxes to the royal family of Bran every year according to the number of wharves.

But as Josiah said, there are more than 50 tax items in the Kingdom, and there are nearly a hundred tax items in Laiyan City.

The aristocratic circle of Laiyan City adopts the default method of ownership of the pier. As long as you show enough strength and are stronger than all competitors, you can own the pier after being confirmed by the Laiyan City Council.

The Robert family is one of the four earl families in Laiyan City, and they can get the benefits they deserve without fighting. But this is not Bevin's goal. He must defeat the other three earl families by a large margin to prove his ability to the family.

But the four major families have been fighting for so many years, and they have known each other for a long time, and it is not easy to defeat each other by a large margin. But Bevan's mind is really active. Since there is no help from the inside, let's look outside.

Bevin understood very well that any prestige or friendship was useless if he wanted to gain the support of other nobles. They must be tied to their boats with practical interests.

Where does the benefit come from? That can only be the newly built 24 piers. Bevin's idea is to seize most of the piers together with other mid-level nobles, so that not only can they be distributed to followers, but they can also get more. And with these interests implicated, these nobles will become the help of their families. Such a result will surely satisfy the family members!

His busyness these days has already paid off, and he has initially negotiated with a few powerful nobles like the Derk family. Although there is a relationship of family influence in this, most of the credit lies in his means of maneuvering.

It would be great if I were the eldest son of the family... Bevan thought as he pressed his temple, frowning. This is also a question he often thinks of when he is sensible.

Yes, damn primogeniture. It is because of this system that the elders in the clan have always treated him with a nonchalant attitude...

As for the big brother who draws weird portraits all day long? Although he has been very kind to him since he was a child, Bevin still has a bit of disdain for this big brother. In his opinion, his eldest brother is a typical idler, playing with things and losing his mind.

Bevin took a deep breath, looked obsessively at the golden lion clan emblem on the carriage and said silently: I will prove to you that I am the most suitable heir to the Robert family!

Boom...

Just as Bei Wen was wandering outside, there was a light knock on the car door,

Come in!

Master Bevan! A man who looked like a housekeeper walked in.

Well, it's Gray. Sit down. Bevan nodded. He was no stranger to this housekeeper. He was an old man who had been with him since he was a child, and helped him take care of most of the things.

Just got the news that the leader of the Blue Wolf Gang was assassinated.

The Blue Wolf Gang? Oh, it's a gang supported by the Black family. Haha, good job! Do you know who killed it?

The Black family is one of the four Earl families in Laiyan City, which controls almost half of the commercial trade in Laiyan City. Earl Black himself is also the Chief Financial Officer of Laiyan City.

Gray: It's a ghost face!

Bevin raised his eyebrows: Hey, it's this ghost face again. Didn't the president of the Iron Knife Society supported by the Auston family also be killed by him last time?

The Auston family is also the earl family of Laiyan City. This family used to be a pirate. Later, when the first king of Branland established the country, they contributed a lot and were finally made earls. Now relying on the Rhineau River, they simply started smuggling, black market, and human trafficking. Earl Alston himself is the deputy city lord of Laiyan City.

Yes.

Haha, if I can't find this ghost face, I really want to have a drink with him to show my gratitude. Bevin smiled while holding his teacup.

Hehe, who says it's not.

Tap, tap...

Just when the two were talking about the ghost face with great interest, suddenly there was a rapid sound of horseshoes rolling over, and the sound of scolding and screaming was endless.

Bevin frowned.

Butler Gray slightly opened the curtain and said, It's the cavalry from the police department.

Bevin: Cavalry? In such a hurry... what happened?

Please wait a moment, master

finished. Gray got out of the car and sent someone to summon a cavalry for questioning. After a while, Gray walked into the carriage with a strange expression on his face.

Ghostface killed again.

Oh, which unlucky ghost is it this time? It can't be from the Matthews family, haha...

The Matthews family, one of the four earl families in Laiyan City. This family runs a blacksmith shop and a weapon shop. Warriors' long swords, magician's wands and other combat equipment are all items they operate. Earl Matthews himself is the sheriff of Laiyan City, responsible for the security affairs in the city.

It's Vincent.

Vinson...Which Vincent? Bevan was a little dazed, and for a moment he felt that he might have some hearing problems.

The Derk family...

boom!

The exquisite teacup in Beiwen's hand instantly turned into broken tiles.

(ps: Since there is a recommendation, well, it’s the third update today. By the way, I’d like to collect and recommend it with confidence ^-^)
