Chapter 502, intimidation

the other side.

Temporary conference hall.

Several small meetings are held each day before the formal parliament begins.

What was discussed was also the federal plan for the coming year.

At the end of the meeting, members from all parties began to leave in groups.

Rebecca didn't have many friends here, so she had no one to leave with.

At this time, a figure came over.

Sit down next to Rebecca, "Mrs. Rebecca."

Looking up, I saw the city of Puluer, ‘Tavik’.

Tavik was originally a cloth merchant in Purul City, but was later supported by Fang Hao to the position of city lord.

This time, naturally, he also represents Pruul City in the parliament.

However, in order to avoid suspicion, he did not go to meet Fang Hao. If anything happened, he would always have people convey the news orally.

"Lord Tarvik." Rebecca smiled.

Tavik nodded and looked around cautiously, seeing that no one was paying attention.

Then he said softly: "The church mentioned to me this time about the haunting of the undead in the north. I'm afraid the news has already reached the ears of the church."

To the north of Purul City is Fang Hao's territory.

Although most of the undead have been placed in the Tibetan Soldier Cave.

But there are still women of the earth spirit patrolling with the undead.

Occasionally, residents and caravans will bump into them.

As long as you don't attack or approach the city without permission, you won't be attacked by the undead.

But if this reaches the ears of the church, it will be a big trouble.

Rebecca also frowned and said, "No one mentioned it at the meeting!"

"Well, the church came to me privately and asked about the situation of the undead."

“Where is the church looking?”

"Although I have promised that Purul City is not threatened by the undead, but according to the church's wishes, it is very likely that a temple will be set up in Purul in the coming year." Tavik said.

Purul City belongs to the northern boundary of the Hundred Cities of Humanity.

The location of Fang Hao's city itself belongs to the no-man's land outside of human forces.

To be divided, it is also an area belonging to the orcs.

In the past, Purul City was also at the bottom of the urban development list, and the church rarely paid attention to this city.

This year, it seems, I am starting to pay attention.

"Well, I will talk to Fang Hao about this matter when I get back and see what he thinks then." Rebecca said softly.

Others were passing by.

Tavik smiled and changed the subject, "I hope to sell the fabrics from Pruul City in Lysis City in the coming year."

"Okay, for the safety of the trade road, I will arrange for manpower to be responsible for cleaning up."

Wait for people passing by to leave.

Tavik continued: "The church is also inquiring about the temple in Lysis City, and it means asking me to provide them with information."

Rebecca looked suffocated, and her face became a little ugly.

She didn't know what happened to the temple, but it probably had something to do with Fang Hao.

After all, she also knew that Fang Hao was closely related to the undead camp.

"Okay, I understand, I will be careful." Rebecca said.

Tavik nodded, stood up and smiled: "Haha! The business in the coming year depends on your care, madam."

Rebecca smiled politely and said, "It should be."

"Then I won't bother you." After Tavik said that, he turned and left.

…

After Tarvik left, Rebecca had to leave too.

But before he could get up, he saw a man wearing noble clothes striding over.

Groat Marshall, parliamentary representative of the Hundred Cities Chamber of Commerce.

At the same time, the person behind what happened to Rebecca and others was revealed.

Grote came over with a slight smile on his face while holding a wine glass.

As if he had discovered Rebecca by chance, he greeted her and said, "Hey, Mrs. Rebecca, you haven't left yet. We haven't seen each other for a long time."

Rebecca glanced at the guy with a proud smile on his face.

His heart was full of disgust, but he still maintained basic etiquette here and nodded slightly in response.

Grote still kept smiling, his eyes greedily scanning Rebecca's proud figure.

"Mrs. Rebecca, I heard that Lysis City has been facing some troubles recently. If you think we are friends, you can tell me that the Marshall family will..."

Rebecca was in no mood to act out with this guy from here.

She knew exactly what Grote's purpose was.

The biggest threat to Lysis City is him. If he says these words now, he is threatening himself.

Before he could finish speaking, he immediately interrupted, "Thank you, no need, Lysis City is fine and there's nothing wrong."

Indifferent words for Rebecca.

There was an expected smile in Grote's eyes, and he said: "Hey! Mrs. Rebecca, I got some gossip. After you left, someone bribed the people of Lysis City and got a lot of you. I am afraid that when the parliament officially begins, these things will appear in the form of evidence in the parliament. With your current situation, hey~! I am afraid it will affect your position. "

After a pause, his expression was teasing, and he looked unabashedly at Rebecca's chest and belly, and continued: "Actually, Rebecca, you know, we are old friends. If you have any difficulties, you can contact me. As I said, let's think of a solution together, and with the connections of our Marshall family, the problem is not difficult to solve. If you don't mind, you can come to my place, have a drink together, and then discuss it..."

If you don't know him.

This set of words really sounds like he is thinking of countermeasures for an old friend.

And ‘Olivia’ had already tipped off Rebecca a few days ago.

He told her that Grote had information about Lysis City.

An angry look appeared on Rebecca's face. She was extremely disgusted with this hypocritical and insidious man who always pestered her ears.

Before he could finish speaking, he interrupted again and said, "Mr. Grote, please leave here. I have nothing to say to you."

Rebecca's voice was loud, even to the other council members around her.

He also cast curious eyes here.

But when they saw it was Grote and Rebecca, they just watched from a distance and had no idea of ​​coming to rescue them.

With such a commotion, Grote couldn't continue to pester.

After all, nobles are cunning and cunning behind the scenes, but they still have to maintain an image of integrity on the surface.

Grote shrugged, the haze in his eyes flashed away, and he no longer concealed it, sneered and said: "Rebecca, I gave you the opportunity, but you didn't want it. I hope you won't kneel down to beg me. Please let me go."

He had wanted this woman for a long time.

Graceful and luxurious, she is more tasteful than the women he got.

Conquering such a woman would give him an even greater sense of accomplishment.

Moreover, he was not in a hurry.

She has the evidence of Lysis City, and reality will force her to surrender to him.

When the time comes, he will crush all the self-esteem of the woman in front of him.

.......

When Rebecca heard this, her face turned red with anger.

Even though he tried to maintain aristocratic etiquette, his fingers clenched into fists so hard that they looked white from the exertion.

She wanted to say something.

But there are no allies here, and once a dispute breaks out, it will only make him more passive.

This was a negotiation that made matters worse, and Grote was on the stronger side.

Not far away, several male and female congressmen came over.

These people have been paying attention here, together with Groat.

"Haha, Mr. Grote, it seems that Mrs. Rebecca doesn't accept your favor." A male congressman stroked his mustache and said with a smile.

"That's right, Grote, you can choose any good woman in this city, why bother insisting on such a foreigner." Another ornately decorated old woman said in a sinister tone.

Grote put away his sinister look, showed an easy-going smile, and said: "I just saw that my old friend was in trouble and wanted to help. Since Rebecca knows what she is doing, I won't bother you."

After saying that, he chatted and laughed with the people next to him and walked out.

Grote left, Rebecca's expression was still full of anger.

Sitting on the chair, his face was gloomy.

Assetti, who was waiting outside the door, saw that Rebecca didn't come out for a long time.

Just walked in to check.

When Rebecca was seen sitting alone in the hall.

Walked over quickly.

"Miss Rebecca, is everything okay?" Arsetti asked softly.

Arsetti is an orange hero and a woman.

Fang Hao arranged for Rebecca to protect her safety.

Hearing Arsetti's voice, Rebecca came to her senses and said, "It's okay, let's go."

There was still a smile on his face, with no abnormal expression at all.

Everything that just happened was as if it had never happened.

"Oh, the carriage is ready, let's go back first." Arsetti led the way.

"good."

Rebecca got up and followed Asetti out.

do not know why.

The moment Arsetti’s voice rang in her ears.

All of Rebecca's worries disappeared and she had only one thought in her mind.

She also has Fang Hao, and Fang Hao will handle these things.

…

the other side.

Fang Hao returned to the room and motioned for Li Rong to sit down opposite.

As soon as I came in, I smelled the fragrance of a woman who had taken a bath.

Pour Li Rong a glass of fruit wine.

He just asked casually, but he didn't expect that after taking a bath, Li Rong actually figured out who set the fire.

"who?"

Li Rong's eyes flashed with a sharp look, and she gritted her teeth and said, "Thorndike!"

Thorndike?

Thorndike, during this period of time, appeared frequently in Fang Hao's sight.

Previously, after returning from exploring the underground palace, the team was ambushed.

It was Thorndike's men who did it.

However, the team did not cause any losses at that time, and this was Silver Wing City, so he did not deal with him immediately.

Unexpectedly, Li Rong was the first to doubt him.

"Are you sure?" Fang Hao was a little doubtful.

"Make sure, I just received the news that someone saw the person who set the fire. It was Thorndike's men." Li Rong's eyes were filled with anger.

Li Rong has a high reputation among the traveler groups in Silver Wing City.

Although no gang force has been formed, if one has to choose a representative figure in Silver Wing City, it must be Li Rong.

And just now, while Li Rong was taking a shower, she received other people's messages in the Book of Lords.

Someone saw Thorndike's men sneaking into the commercial street where the lights were turned off and closed last night.

Not long after the man came out, the fire broke out.

Moreover, the fire was so powerful that it illuminated the entire area brightly.

With such a comparison, coupled with the hatred between the two parties in the past few days, there is no doubt that it must be Thorndike.

Most people want to take revenge, but they can't create such a big anger.

"What are you going to do?" Fang Hao looked at Li Rong.

Li Rong reached out to touch his cigarette.

But he realized that he was wearing Anjia's clothes, so he simply picked up the wine glass and took a sip of the fruit wine.

After a moment of silence, he said, "According to the rules, you must kill people to pay your debts and pay your debts."

Hearing these words, Fang Hao was stunned.

Why do you have to come up with rules in the world?

"Any ideas?" Fang Hao continued to ask.

Li Rong looked at Fang Hao twice, and then said softly: "Brother Fang Hao, how do you sell the gun you used last time?"

The Lionheart Knight is equipped with a bolt-action rifle.

But in Lysis City, they were all kept in the storage space by Fang Hao.

Only after leaving the city will they be taken out and distributed to the Lionheart Knights.

This is also because I am afraid that if I do something in the future, if a bullet is found, it will be traced to me.

And Li Rong discovered that Fang Hao had a rifle.

He was even more surprised. When he returned to the territory, he rummaged through the shops in Fang Hao's channel.

I found that what was being sold was still the original item, and the rifle was not for sale.

"You want to kill him with a rifle?" Fang Hao guessed what she was thinking.

The ruthless look on Li Rong's face did not change, and she said: "Well, my subordinates are not of a high level, so they may not be his match in a real fight, so I want to buy two guns and kill him directly."

It can be seen that Li Rong is serious this time.

Fang Hao also wanted to kill Thorndike.

But the other party has always been in the city, and is better at taking advantage of the rules of Silver Wing City.

Once a conflict occurs between the two parties in the city, it is very likely that Thorndike will have nothing to do, while Li Rong will be wanted in the city.

By then, even your own city will be attacked by Silver Wing City.

Fang Hao thought for a while and felt that Li Rong's idea was too impulsive.

There might be a better way to kill him.

"Li Rong, I also want Thorndike to die, but you can't act recklessly. If Silver Wing City finds out that you two are fighting, Thorndike can take people away. Your city is nearby, can you leave? ?" Fang Hao persuaded softly.

"This..." After hearing this, Li Rong didn't know how to answer.

Even if the shop was burned down, she had already made plans to kill Thorndike no matter the cost.

But if Fang Hao didn't give her a gun, she wouldn't even have the chance to do it regardless of the cost.

Just relying on your own people, that is, fighting against the opponent, the chance of killing Thorndike is not high.

"I can't care so much anymore. If he doesn't die, how can I, Li Rong, open a store in the future? Travelers have little status in the city. If we don't solve it this time, then the store will be burned down a second time. Li Rong said angrily.

Fang Hao shook his head and said softly: "Of course he will die, and the people behind him will also die. We can only impulsively involve everything."

Li Rong also knew that Fang Hao was right.

There is a fire in my heart.

After taking two deep breaths, he said: "Then do you have any good ideas?"

Fang Hao has only one way to deal with this kind of thing.

That is to avoid future troubles forever.

Thorndike must die, otherwise there may not be any trouble.

It's just that he is not familiar with Silver Wing City. If he wants to kill him without anyone noticing, he still needs to conduct a detailed investigation.

"Do you know where Thorndike is?" Fang Hao touched his chin and asked softly.

Li Rong shook his head and said, "Dragon Tooth Tavern."

Fang Hao nodded and said: "Okay, I will arrange this matter. When there is any action, I will use the Book of Lords to inform you. Don't come to Silver Wing City for the next two days, lest Thorndike take action against you."

Li Rong was silent for a moment, and finally nodded, "Okay, then I'll go back and wait for your news."

He stood up, turned his head again, and looked at Fang Hao seriously.

He said softly: "If you help me deal with Thorndike, my sister will stay with you for three days."

Fang Hao was stunned. He almost spit out the water he had just drank.

Said: "Oh! I feel like these two things are all your benefits."

Li Rong patted the table with her thin white fingers and looked for Shuyuan www.zhaoshuyuan.com "What do you mean, you don't like me?"

"No, I'm still a child, why are you telling me this?" Fang Hao smiled, and then continued: "I feel that Thorndike will definitely hide, and let your people pay attention to his whereabouts."

In any case, Thorndike would most likely have gone into hiding afterwards.

It will take some time and experience to find him.

"Okay, I will let people keep an eye on him. Once there is news, I will inform you as soon as possible." Li Rong also said seriously.

Fang Hao nodded and said to the door: "Arrange someone to send Li Rong back."

The door opened and the guard said respectfully: "Miss Li Rong, please."

Li Rong looked at Fang Hao seriously and strode out of the room.
