Chapter 126 Hit and Run
Princess Caroline's introduction to Xu Yi only lasted half an hour. When the convoy was about to enter the main base of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, the road was accidentally blocked. ≤
Seeing the road ahead blocked by a specially modified magic car, and then there were two men in uniform standing next to it. Princess Caroline and Marquis Southgide looked at each other, and at the same time showed a hint of doubt.
This fiery red magic sedan was clearly the one that Seymour bought in Ferroyce City.
When he headed towards the Principality of Stantin from Hemi City on the Blackmi Wasteland today, Seymour was still honestly following the convoy, but before he was halfway through, he couldn't help but leave the convoy by himself, speeded up from time to time, and rushed on the road to get rid of the convoy.
Since the route from Hemi City to the Principality of Stantin is simple, there is no need to worry that he will get lost. In addition, he has mastered his driving skills during this period, so the Marquis of Southgide simply let him go, not trying to restrain him too much.
But he was stopped by someone now. Why is that?
Princess Caroline glanced at the two young men in uniforms and frowned slightly: "These two are security guards in the Principality of Stantin. It seems that Viscount Seymour may have committed something."
"Security officer?" Marquis Southgide looked at the two young men in surprise and signaled the driver in front to drive over.
The convoy stopped next to Seymour's fiery red magic sedan. She was sitting in the cab, with a disdainful expression on her face quickly opened the car door, avoided the two security officers, and rushed over.
"Uncle Dayolun. These two guys dare to stop my car! I must teach them a lesson!"
Marquis Southgide's face slightly darkened. He glanced at him with a bad look. Then he looked at Princess Caroline, with a hint of inquiry in his eyes.
Princess Caroline pondered slightly, nodded and said, "Marquis, let me deal with it."
"good."
Princess Caroline got out of the car and walked towards the two security guards.
The two security officers had anger on their faces. When they saw Princess Caroline get out of the car and walk over, they were immediately frightened by her luck, and they were stunned for a moment.
"Hello, two security guards." Princess Caroline smiled sweetly, pointed to Seymour behind her and asked, "Can you ask why you stopped me, my friend? Did he violate any rules?"
The two security officers were staring at Princess Caroline with a dull face at first. When they heard her ask this question, they immediately woke up. One of the fat security officers coughed lightly and quickly recovered from calmness. They said seriously: "Ms., your friend just drove a magic sedan on the road without following the regulations, and thus hit another moving medium-sized bus magic locomotive. This caused the bus magic locomotive to overturn due to damage and injured many passengers in the car. After the accident, your friend did not wait for treatment and escaped directly. Now, according to relevant regulations, we must take him back for investigation."
"Travel accident and run away?" Princess Caroline frowned deeply, turned her head to look at Seymour, then turned to look at Marquis Southgide, with a hint of embarrassment.
The Marquis Southgide saw the look on her face and walked over.
"Is something happening?"
The Marquis of Southgide had been in a high position for a long time, so naturally he had a majestic atmosphere. The two security officers were well-informed and knew at first glance that he was not an ordinary person, so he immediately did not dare to neglect and explained the incident to him in detail.
After hearing this, the Marquis Southgide's face completely darkened, turned his head and glared at Seymour, then pondered for a moment, and said to the two security officers: "Two, this is the fault of my nephew. I would like to express my sincere apology to the passengers in the car on his behalf. I am willing to compensate the passengers who were injured in this matter, which will definitely satisfy them."
The Marquis Southgide waved to a follower behind him. Without saying a word, the follower took out a bulging purse from his arms and handed it over.
"There are 100 gold coins in it. I think it should be enough for the compensation for those passengers."
The two security officers glanced at the purse and then looked at the Marquis Southgide, looking surprised.
The Marquis of Southgide smiled and said, "Don't be surprised, to express sincere apology, one hundred gold coins are not too much."
However, he did not notice that Princess Caroline, who was standing beside him, looked extremely strange when she heard this sentence.
The two security officers also looked strange. After looking at each other, the fat security officer coughed lightly and said to the Marquis Southgate: "This... sir, do you think there is a lot of compensation for one hundred gold coins?"
The Marquis of Southgide was stunned: "Aren't there many? According to your description just now, most of the passengers were only slightly injured, with only one broken bone. I think one hundred gold coins are enough to compensate their losses."
He paused and continued, "Okay, if one hundred gold coins is not enough, then I can add fifty gold coins. As for my nephew, because we still have urgent matters, it is not convenient for you to take them back for investigation."
The fat security officer smiled bitterly and shook his head and said, "Sir, I must tell you that not to say 100 gold coins, or 150 gold coins, even 500 gold coins, are not enough to compensate your nephew for the losses caused in this accident. And according to the regulations, we must take him back for investigation, please cooperate."
The Marquis Southgide's eyes widened in surprise: "Five hundred gold coins are not enough? How is this possible! Five hundred gold coins are even enough to buy ten strong slaves!"
The fat security guard frowned: "Sir, you are not from our Principality of Stantin, are you? Tell you that there are no slaves in our Principality of Stantin now, and your metaphor is not appropriate. And to be honest, five hundred gold coins are really not a large number. I can be sure that each of them can earn at least two hundred gold coins a year. So many people were injured, and the losses suffered by the magic motorcycle itself were far more than five hundred gold coins."
"Everyone can earn 200 gold coins a year?" Marquis Southgide was completely surprised. "Is this possible? They are just ordinary civilians, aren't they?"
Princess Caroline, who was standing beside her, couldn't stand it anymore, so she coughed lightly, took a step forward, and said to the two security officers: "Two, I'm not sure about it. These two are distinguished guests of President Xu of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce. I hope you can make some compromises. We will pay the compensation truthfully no matter how much."
After saying that, Princess Caroline took out a gold ticket from her arms and handed it over.
"This is a thousand gold coins. If it is not enough, you can contact me at any time through the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce." After a pause, perhaps because he felt that he could not achieve any effect in such empty words, Princess Caroline hesitated for a moment and continued: "I am Princess Caroline from the Principality of Drak. I think you should have heard my name."
The two security officers widened their eyes and shouted incredibly: "So you are Princess Caroline! No wonder they are so beautiful! Oh my God! I actually saw Princess Caroline with my own eyes! This is so lucky!"
Princess Caroline smiled slightly: "Thank you for your praise. So, can we leave first? President Xu should be waiting for our arrival now. Regarding post-processing, you can contact us through the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce at any time."
"this……"
The two security officers looked at each other, and the fat security officer pulled another security officer. They muttered a few words. After a while, the fat security officer came back and said to Princess Caroline: "Your Highness, please wait with your companions. We are trying to contact President Xu and let him decide what to do."
"Contact President Xu?" Princess Caroline frowned. "It's still a long way from the main base of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce? Then don't we have to wait here for a long time?"
"Sorry." The fat security guard smiled, but did not give any signs of comfort.
Seeing that they were determined, Princess Caroline had no choice but to accept it helplessly and walked back to the Marquis Southgide.
"Marquis, I'm very sorry. Let's wait a little while here. They are contacting President Xu."
"How to contact President Xu here? If you send someone back, it will take a long time to go back and forth?" Marquis Southgade obviously thought of the same problem as Princess Caroline.
"Uncle Dayoron, why do we listen to them waiting here? Just leave. Can they really dare to attack us?" Seymour came over and said indifferently.
"Shut up!" Marquis Southaged angrily scolded him, but he couldn't say anything more. After all, he was just the son of his old friend, not his son, and could teach him a lesson at will.
After thinking about it, he had to nodded and said, "Okay, we are guests after all, so we should respect President Xu, the host. This is also good. Perhaps by dealing with this matter, we can deepen our understanding with President Xu."
Seeing the smile on the corner of Marquis Southgide's mouth, Princess Caroline's heart was slightly slight.
Xu Yi has always hoped to promote the magic machinery of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce to the entire continent, so the two empires, the Candela Empire and the Malo Empire, will of course be the two most critical parts.
The progress of the New Aircraft Chamber of Commerce in the Candela Empire has always been not smooth, but now it has been a coincidence that it has received the attention of the Marquis of Southghede from the Marlow Empire and has the opportunity to promote the products of the New Aircraft Chamber of Commerce to the Marlow Empire.
If Xu Yi's mishandling of this matter this time would cause dissatisfaction with the Marquis of Southgate, it would be very likely to affect the Marquis of Southgate's evaluation of the New Air Chamber of Commerce and Xu Yi, and would hinder the entry of the New Air Chamber of Commerce into the Marlow Empire.
"Xu Yi, you must seize the opportunity this time."
Seeing the Marquis Southgide, who was returning to his calmness and waiting in a magic car, looked at Seymour, who looked impatient on the side, Princess Caroline prayed secretly in her heart. (To be continued, please search for Piaotianwen, the novel is better and faster!
