Chapter 236 Marion thinks clearly

"Okay, I have already bought an auction venue with complete facilities in the name of the Mis Chamber of Commerce. After some publicity, it can be used as the venue for the auction."

Margaret knew that Richard had already come up with an idea, so she immediately expressed her willingness to help Richard and took this opportunity to demonstrate to the merchants in Port Vendre and the people behind them.

"Andy, you are also needed to control the government affairs hall. No problems should occur during this period. Cooperate with the Miss Chamber of Commerce to complete this auction."

Richard said to his political officer.

"Yes, Lord Lord."

Andy immediately understood and knew Richard's determination. He left the lord's castle immediately and refused the merchant who wanted to meet with Cohen Chamber of Commerce.

"What on earth is Lord Richard thinking? Is he going to offend all of us merchants?"

The director of the Cohen Chamber of Commerce in Port Wandel was a little puzzled. Not only the Cohen Chamber of Commerce he represented, but also several other major chambers of commerce were refused to meet by Richard.

Originally, he had prepared some conditions favorable to Port Vendre, hoping to use these conditions to see if he could impress Richard when they met.

But he didn't expect that Richard didn't even give him a chance to meet him.

Just when the heads of these chambers of commerce were wondering, they noticed that a new chamber of commerce had settled in Port Wandel.

Meath Chamber of Commerce.

As soon as this unknown new Chamber of Commerce appeared in the businessmen's field of vision, it spent millions of gold coins to buy the largest auction venue in Port Wandel.

Then, the Miss Chamber of Commerce, as if it was not afraid of losing money, searched for various fine magic equipment and magic materials in the shops of several major chambers of commerce.

In just ten days, the Mis Chamber of Commerce had spent more than eight million gold coins.

Is this still a new chamber of commerce?

……

While Margaret was making drastic preparations for the Meath Chamber of Commerce's first auction, Richard strolled into the prison in Port Vendre.

"My Lord, the conditions in the prison are not good. Why don't you let me get Marion out?"

Richard's newly appointed defense officer, Eric suggested.

Richard looked around. The prison in Port Vendre had poor lighting and was dark all day long. The prison cells were also damp and dark, and there was an unpleasant stench.

It's not that Richard can't tolerate it, but there's no need.

"Okay, let them bring Marion out!"

However, Eric did not let others take action. Instead, he went into the prison himself and brought out Marion, who had been detained for several days.

As an eighth-level warrior, Marion would naturally not be affected by the harsh environment of the prison. However, the mental injuries caused by Richard before made Marion, who was brought out, look a little weak, without a trace of his previous arrogance.

"My Lord, Marion has been brought here."

Eric released the restrictions on Marion. His lord had easily seriously injured Marion, and he did not think he needed to worry about his lord's safety.

Marion seemed like a different person after not seeing him today.

"Marion, how about it, have you thought it through?"

Marion nodded woodenly with empty eyes.

From Richard's actions, it can be seen that Richard really does not take his brother-in-law seriously, and doesn't Marion herself know her own situation?

Most of the gold coins he embezzled were given to his sister because he wanted to get closer to her so that he could gain a foothold in Port Vendel.

Before, he also relied on the power of his brother-in-law from the Dover family to intimidate the two temporary lords, but Richard was different from them. He was really not afraid of his background!

"As long as you cooperate."

Richard nodded, expressing his satisfaction with Marion's performance, but he would not let go of the gold coins that Marion had embezzled before.

By eliminating Marion and his subordinates, Richard will be able to establish his own prestige in the official system of Port Vendre.

Although Richard is a ninth-level wizard, he is still young after all, and the Xavier family is also a small family, so it is inevitable that he will be looked down upon.

However, as soon as he arrived at Port Vendre, he directly liquidated Marion, who had a strong background. This should be enough!

"Remember to explain the amount of gold coins you embezzled. If you can't pay it back, let your brother-in-law pay it back."

Even if Marion had some courage, he would not dare to be so presumptuous again.

He immediately explained clearly the areas where he had embezzled money, but there were many places and even Marion could not remember the specific amounts.

Fortunately, Andy was very familiar with the finances of Port Vendre and was well prepared for Marion's downfall. Every gold coin he moved was clearly recorded.

In the end, the amount of money Marion embezzled shocked Richard.

A defense officer actually embezzled 30 million gold coins, which also proved the wealth of the territory of Port Vendel.

If Marion were asked to pay back the money, he wouldn't be able to do so even if he sold all his property.

Out of desperation, Marion had to turn to her own sister.

"Sister, my crime has been exposed. Now the new lord of Port Wandel wants me to return all the gold coins I embezzled."

Marion contacted her sister who was far away in Dover through magical equipment.

"What? You didn't tell the new lord who your brother-in-law is?"

"Sister, I told you!"

Marion cried, "But the new Lord Richard didn't care about my identity as a brother-in-law and even beat me up."

After hearing Marion's words, Marion's sister was stunned for a few seconds and finally remembered the name Richard.

It seems that this person is not only the new champion of the duel competition, but also appreciated by the Duke of Dover, and has a very good relationship with Toby, the future heir of the Dover family.

If it really is this Richard, then the gold coins that Marion offered as tribute must be returned.

However, Marion's sister had no habit of saving money, and she had spent almost all the gold coins that Marion had given her.

"Brother, don't worry, I'll go ask your brother-in-law."

Marion's brother-in-law is over fifty years old, but his cultivation is only that of a ninth-level warrior. Marion's sister is just one of his favorite partners among dozens of partners, because this partner often has a lot of gold coins for him to squander.

Marion's sister explained to her husband what had happened in Port Vendres.

"What, your brother actually offended Richard?"

As Marion's brother-in-law was a direct descendant of the Dover family, he naturally knew how difficult it was to gain the appreciation of the Duke of Dover.

Among the younger generation of the entire Dover family, only Toby can attract the Duke of Dover's attention.
