Chapter 369 Clara's Dilemma
Lao Wang happily put the envelope in his arms. This was Dage's expression of love. Although it was a little more tactful, he accepted it.
When he came back from Longcheng this time, the one thing Lao Wang thought most clearly was that he had no way to go if he wanted to survive. Since he had been swept by the world's tide, he could only continue to overcome obstacles, ride the wind and waves, and make a path of his own in this world.
………
The first voice from Rose was three days later, and the Thunder Dragon still did not come forward. It was published by Hawkland, who had recovered a little bit of his spirit, through the light of the temple.
Regarding all condemnations and accusations against Rose by all parties, the Holy City is still investigating the specific incident. Rose does not defend or refute, but does not want to intensify its relationship with the churches of the major brothers. This does not mean that Rose agrees that all slander will eventually come to light. At that time, we will see who is right and who is wrong.
A simple statement, even the rebuttal is a bit pale and powerless, which makes people helpless and helpless, but this is the current situation of Rose.
Although such a humble voice aroused the sympathy of some people and allowed the slander to collect the burial of a little bit, it also made people feel that Rose is really just the last time to survive.
On Lao Wang's side, the training of several people has also achieved certain results.
The biggest surprise was not Fantesy who mastered the crazy Tai Chi tiger, but Winnie... defeating the inner demon, his soul power also undergoes a transformation. He advanced from Honghuo to Lanhuo. Although he was still only at the top of the tiger, the lethality of Lanhuo was very different from that of ordinary flames. Moreover, the Ice Witch, which once gave Winnie the most headache, now has a slim impact on her. Ice Fire seemed to have become a joke in front of Lanhuo.
The difficulty is that the two orcs, the road to awakening has almost no progress. In two or three weeks, the only progress is that in the soul refining array, from carrying an hour to carrying an hour and a half, it feels that her soul has been tempered, her soul power is stronger than before, and her will is stronger, but she has not touched the threshold of breakthrough at all.
Udi is almost the same. The crazy state activated during the last battle with Fantesey was the closest he was awakening, but the road to soul refining began to make no progress. Seeing Udi becoming less confident day by day, Lao Wang was not in a hurry.
The overall effect of the soul refining array is unquestionable. Asiba and Winnie are just taking one step ahead. In Yu Jiutian, he also used these methods to make those people reach the peak of their profession step by step. Kela and Udi only need time. Of course, if you want everyone to reach such a peak, you still need more resources...
Speaking of which, after returning to Aurora, I have been busy with the team, busy with Bingfeng Ertong and even playing chess with Leilong, and have not yet contacted Uganda and Clara.
To be honest, the old Wang that Clara imagined was stoking her appetite, but that wasn't...
The plan to overthrow the new city lord has actually begun. One of the most important collaborators has quietly completed the docking with Lao Wang before Lao Wang came back. However, the cooperation between Uganda and Clara is also what Wang Feng needs, but Lao Wang cannot take the initiative.
After all, in everyone's eyes, both rose and Wang Feng are already fish on the chopping board. Only the two of them can make Lao Wang decide the degree of their participation, icing on the cake and timely help in the follow-up plan.
Lao Wang was still wondering whether Clara's invitation came first or Uganda's invitation came first. Logically speaking, it should be Uganda. After all, the turmoil in Aurora City has not much connection with the sea clan. With Clara's business wisdom, it should be clear that once he speaks first this time, it means eternal compromise. Therefore, he might be able to continue to waste time with himself, even until the matter of Aurora City is completely resolved by himself that day.
But the orcs are different, but unexpectedly, these two families either have no movement. If there is any movement, there are two invitations sent at the same time, one after the other.
‘Brother Wang Feng’s long neck horn is unforgettable to Mei’er. It’s Mei’er’s wish to hear it again. She will hold a special banquet and Brother Wang Feng must not refuse.’
This was sent from Uganda. In the name of his granddaughter Su Meier, Lao Wang smiled, which was interesting.
It seems that the orcs are in Aurora City now, and they must be the ones who are being taken care of by the new city lord, so that Uganda dares not openly interact with Wang Feng, but wants to borrow the name of his granddaughter.
This is a good phenomenon. Only orcs know that they are afraid and difficult. Only after they get on their own ship can they completely resolutely. These days, it is better to believe in the pros and cons than to believe in anyone. Only the relationship between ally with consistent interests is the strongest.
And the news from Clara seems much simpler: "Wang Feng, do you have a conscience? Do you have to bow your head? Or do you still want to abandon it all the time!"
Lao Wang was amused and laughed, but it was indeed Clara's style. He could only listen to half of the words of this mermaid princess, but at least she made a choice, and it seemed that she had struggled for a long time.
To be honest, humans are relatively closed to the news about the sea tribe. Lao Wang only knew that he was not here during this period. Clara returned to the mermaid territory under the sea twice, but he was really not sure what Clara had encountered in the tribe. But now it seems that it would not be a good thing to worry about. Otherwise, if he took the initiative to find himself at this time, it would not be the best choice for Clara.
There were Winnie and Fantsey staring at the training room, so Lao Wang didn't have to stay behind every day. He put two invitation letters into his pocket, and it was almost time to completely spread the net.
…………
In the magnificent third-floor hall of Jinbeibei Auction House, Clara stared at the man standing in front of him with a smile on her face. Yes, she still looked heartless, as if the sky fell and it had nothing to do with him.
"Your Highness, you really hurt my heart!" Lao Wang looked at Clara with regret: "I thought we were already our best friends, but I didn't expect that after being back for so long, you didn't even ask me for help, and I didn't even say hello. I thought you forgot me. It's really the most cruel thing but the mermaid!"
“………”
Clara did not respond, and her expression even seemed a little solemn. To be honest, her mood was very complicated at this moment.
She has been waiting for Wang Feng to contact him actively during this period, but it is not entirely because she cares about whether she is passive or not during future negotiations, nor because of money.
After experiencing disasters and various things at sea, Clara is actually quite clear. The words "Everyone and the more flowers" are not feasible for her. A princess like her should either not go to the gambling table, but once she goes up, she must be prepared to bet on all the bets and want to keep one more hand? She does not have the qualifications because all her chips together may not be enough for the eldest princess! No matter how timid she is, even if she only loses the bottom, she will lose the qualifications to go to the table!
She had to fight to the death and bet all her capital, but at least before that, she wanted to see if Wang Feng was worthy of making such a heavy bet. This is why she has been hesitating. But the facts proved that Wang Feng was obviously not a guy who would show his trump card first. She had to admit that she couldn't hold back first, because she finally understood that the secret recipe was in Wang Feng's hands. In this gambling table, she was not the one who dealt the cards, and she had no choice at all.
"What is your relationship with Pirate Sessis?" Clara stared into Wang Feng's eyes. This question may not matter to Wang Feng, nor can it be considered a good opening remark, but it is very important to her. After letting go of all her pride and desire to win or lose, what she needs is absolute honesty and understanding.
Looking at Clara with a cold face, Lao Wang shrugged indifferently: "A friend."
Clara was stunned: "Friends... are just friends?"
"What about that?" Old Wang sat in the chair carelessly, picked up the sand fruit on the table next to him, and bit it so hard that he had no politeness when he came here: "It's just a meeting."
"It's just a friend who meets you once..." Clara exhaled a long sigh and smiled mockingly: "Any friend who meets you once has saved my life. Since I met you, why do I feel that I am becoming more and more humble?"
To be honest, Lao Wang imagined Clara facing various difficulties, but she never expected that she would face life and death worries. After all, she is the princess of the Sea royal family, and it is possible to lose favor and lose power, but who can threaten her life? However, this is obviously a good thing for him. Compared to Clara who pretends to be easy to talk to himself, this is still resentful and unpretentious Clara feels more at ease. It seems that the proud princess is still very angry at the fact that he can't hold on to him.
...It's still quite cute.
It is really rare for the sea clan to actively disclose the information from the sea clan to a human, but Clara did not hesitate. She knew that what Wang Feng said last time to the potion was all excuses, and this guy must have it in his hands. The reason why he didn't take it out was not only because of the money issue, but also because of the level of mutual trust.
If Wang Feng wants to be honest with him, both sides should at least raise their trust to a higher level. Wang Feng held the potion in his hand without asking for help. It is impossible to take the initiative to do so, so he can only take the initiative.
Clara briefly explained her experience in the Sea Imperial City and the attack on the sea. The part about the Sea Dragon Prince was slightly weakened, but the smell was still heard by Lao Wang.
Old Wang was indignant: "MMP, this Sea Dragon Prince is simply looking for death!"
Clara shut up and wanted to beat someone up. What was speechless was that she had already simplified versions and was heard by him. As for wanting to beat someone up... Is Wang Feng the kind of person who was shocked when he heard something? But look at what he was like just now, those who didn't know thought he was his own father! Are you as for that? It doesn't fit Wang Feng's reaction at all.
They are all foxes for thousands of years. It seems that they have pretended to be pitiful. This guy started to pretend to be justice and care!
Pretend, keep pretending, can you pretend to be this princess?
"Can you catch the key points? He has not succeeded. Such people are not easy to provoke. You don't know too much about the bottom of the sea..." Clara said resentfully: "I just settled in this position, but I lost a large number of goods. To be honest, money is not a big deal, but it will definitely become the attack point of my competitors."
Clara paused, looked at Wang Feng's eyes, and sighed softly, saying pitifully: "Wang Feng, the potion matter has indeed given me a lot of help some time ago, but without any progress, you understand, how high I climbed at that time, how heavy I will fall now! My position in the clan is already in danger, and now there are problems with the auction house. I am afraid that my position in Her Majesty the Queen's mind will plummet. Next time I go back to the Haihuang City... I'm afraid I may not be able to get out."
"Then I'll finish it if I get some results?" Lao Wang said indifferently: "It just so happens that I have a big deal. Isn't the new city lord of our Aurora City going to make big investments recently? You can also invest and participate in a share."
What Clara wanted was a potion, after all, in her opinion, only that thing could save her life. Now, when she heard that Lao Wang spoke, she frowned: "This is meaningless. My problem is not just the profit and loss of the auction house, but the root cause is the potion. No matter how much money I make, I can't change this situation..."
After all, I just want potions.
"You don't understand this. Do you think I've done something meaningless?"
"Wang Feng, this is really not a business matter..."
"This is a matter of pattern!" Lao Wang smiled, came over with a mysterious look on his face, and whispered a few words in Clara's ear.
The magnetic voice, the man's warm breath echoed around Clara's ears, making her ears feel a little itchy, but what Wang Feng said was a bit beyond her expectations. He didn't care about the other party's little movements. Clara was stunned: "This... are you sure?"
"Just follow my plan." Lao Wang smiled and said lightly: "When the new city lord takes over, I guarantee that the Ocean Chamber of Commerce can make one-fifth of the shipping market of Aurora City. This result should be enough for you to turn over at the bottom of the sea."
To be honest, Clara's eyes lit up immediately as soon as she mentioned this.
One-fifth of Aurora City's shipping market is actually not much. Money is just a small matter, but what is important is its significance...
As one of the most important industries of the mermaids on land, Jinbeibei Auction House has more than a dozen branch chains in major cities along the southeast coast. It was established earlier than the Ocean Chamber of Commerce and is one of the main income of the royal treasury. If it is the mermaid queen's private wallet, it is therefore to some extent the small auction house is actually more valued by the queen.
But since the rise of the Ocean Chamber of Commerce, seeing him grow from a small chamber of commerce with investment of only 30 million euros to a giant today, Jinbeibei Auction House has no way to do it.
Let’s not talk about the large-scale scope of the entire coastal city on the southeast coast. Take Aurora City as an example. When the Ocean Chamber of Commerce was established decades ago, Jinbeibei Auction House occupied more than 90% of Aurora City’s shipping business, but now it has been snatched half of the Ocean Chamber of Commerce. Before Clara, in just a few decades, the Jinbei Aurora City auction house had been replaced by eight positions, but no one could stop the Ocean Chamber of Commerce from Aurora City. After all, they are fighting locally in humans, with the right time, place and people. Jinbei’s market share is always declining year by year. But if Clara could regain one-fifth of the ocean Chamber of Commerce, what would that mean?
You know, all branches of Jinbeibei Auction House have never really won against the Ocean Chamber of Commerce in the past few decades, but only I have emerged as a sudden move, although I have only fought a turnaround in a small area... I have become a business genius, at least in the mind of Her Majesty the Queen.
What's more important is that the overall Golden Bebe Auction House is controlled by the eldest princess. Facing the Ocean Chamber of Commerce, she is losing, but Clara is winning. As soon as she goes in and out, how will the queen's weight tilt? Do you still need to think about it? Compared to the potion that is more important, but not urgent, this achievement is probably what Clara needs most now.
Also, this kid has actually made a connection with the Ocean Chamber of Commerce... By the way, didn’t you see an An Hetang who looked very much like him that day? It turned out that it was him!
To be honest, if someone came to say this to Clara, Clara would beat him with a big broom, but this was Wang Feng... It was Kalida who was arrested and destroyed the roses to protect him. What does this mean? It means they have an affair? It's bullshit, this shows the importance of Wang Feng!
This is definitely not the simple disciple of the Holy Clan in everyone's eyes, nor is it just because he invented the fusion rune. This kid's water is deep!
She took a deep breath, but before she could agree, she heard Wang Feng continue to say again.
"As for the sea tribe..." Lao Wang said with a smile: "I'll get you two more bottles of potions, so that they can study it slowly, which will be enough for them to struggle for a while."
Clara was really stunned. No matter how scattered Wang Feng said today, she was quite clear in her heart. Only potions can solve all the difficulties in her clan. Wang Feng just used the concessions from the Ocean Chamber of Commerce to send herself away. It was really a condition that she could not refuse. She thought that potions might have to wait for a while, but she didn't expect...
"With these two things in hand, you should be as stable as Mount Tai in the Sea Clan. As for the bastard of the Sea Dragon Clan..." Lao Wang sneered when he said this: "Don't worry, I won't let him go."
Clara's expression narrowed, and she felt that Wang Feng, who suddenly turned cold, felt a sense of powerlessness without anger. She could feel the anger under that majesty. Although she was not stolen, it was shocking, making Clara not doubt the truth of the fact that he had just said he wanted to kill Prince Sea Dragon...
But after being solemn, it feels a bit funny.
This... seems to be a little different from what I pretended to be caring just now. This is all pretending. This kid's acting skills are really amazing. Even he wants to give up on the disadvantage.
"I can only rely on you now..." Clara said gently, her slender legs slightly changed her posture...
In the past, whenever Wang Feng wanted to vomit something, it was like squeezing toothpaste from the iron sheet, but this time it was abnormal. He took the initiative to deliver it to the door in large quantities. Clara really felt a bit unreal. There are two concepts: bargaining for buying things and not paying for buying things. Clara is really not used to it.
At this moment, she leaned half leaned and lying, staring at Wang Feng with charming eyes, and stared at Wang Feng with her white fingers as white as jade. Her clothes as white as she was standing next to her were drawn in small circles...
Clara's jade lips opened lightly and exhaled like Lan: "How do you want someone to repay you? If you don't mention money, do you want to..."
Before he finished speaking, a big hand had already grabbed Clara's chin rudely.
Chapter completed!
