Chapter 375: The Lord of Amberlin
Grand Duke Canglan then slowly raised his head: "In the court, Ming Ke had attacked my Cang family because Cang Jue had not rescued Ming Ji. The right and wrong of this matter is no longer important, but the fact of Ming Ke is too excessive. My Cang family is eager to lose his son and has always ignored him, but it is unconcerned. Now he has even put aside his words and wants Cang Jue to enter the imperial capital in this life! My Cang family is not afraid of things, but he doesn't want to fight with such a madman meaninglessly... Ming Ke is the fifth prince's person. I am afraid that this matter can only be solved by the fifth prince. Please ask Your Highness Ninth prince to say a few good words to Cang Jue in front of the fifth prince..."
Longjing smiled. Longzhen and Longxiang were fighting against gods, and the court officials below were considered to be suffering from mortals. During this period, Mingke has been asking for trouble for the Cang family. Everyone knows this matter. As Mingke's leader of the Nine Gods Competition Hall, he was indignant with his son. This guy was originally a madman. The Nine Gods Empire is famous for being arrogant. Now the prince and the fifth prince check and balance each other, involving each other's energy, and they have no time to care about these things below. The Cang family is not afraid on the surface, but Mingke's son died and he always wants to play with you. What are you doing? You play with him too? When you encounter such an unreasonable person, it's so... disgusting, you're not worth it!
At this time, Cang Jue participated in the planning of Aurora City, but was afraid that part of the reason was that he wanted to leave the Nine Gods Capital and avoid the limelight of Ming Ke.
Of course, Grand Duke Canglan could also use the 5 billion yuan to ask the fifth prince, but the problem is that the Cang family is the prince's person. If the money is sent directly to the fifth prince, it would undoubtedly be a betrayal in the eyes of the prince, and the matter would be even bigger. Moreover, the fifth prince might not agree. However, through Longjing's relationship, it is not considered a transgression. At the same time, Longjing also has this weight and ability. If it can make this matter smaller and avoid the trouble of the madman, it would be the best.
"Mr. Canglan and Mr. Mingke are both my Nine Gods Humerus? It is the best thing to be able to resolve disputes and work together for the country." Longjing knew it in his mind, but he still didn't answer the chart: "What's more, Cangjue disrupted Aurora City, which is a great achievement? He even gave up the fifth brother the bad anger of Aurora City. Can I talk to the fifth brother about this? But let's forget about it. After all, Mingke died, and my favor may not be useful."
Grand Duke Canglan directly put the chart on the table and pushed it over. He smiled and said, "This picture is just a gift to Your Highness. Since Your Highness is willing to plead for my Cang family, that is a great favor. How dare you force the result? Regardless of success or failure, Canglan is grateful."
"Hahaha?" Longjing laughed, a light flashed in his eyes. He didn't say more, but just raised his glass: "Since it is for the harmony of my Nine Gods Court, Longjing should do his best."
"Have you been working!"
When Canglan left, Longjing's expression calmed down and he gently stroked the chart. What a pity? If he had told him earlier that he had the treasure-grade Qiankun Bag in his hand, he could take away this group of Leo without anyone noticing.
The incalculable loss, in just two or three days, Aurora City was already in complete chaos.
It’s okay for several large chambers of commerce to say that the loss of 100 million or 200 million is not unbearable. It is mainly because many private bosses, although 100,000 or 80,000 seems not much, but they are almost all their lives. They are just cheated away like this, which is really deadly.
The acting city lord who sent the Blade Parliament to stabilize the situation in Aurora City was directly surrounded and hid in the city lord's mansion. The sea clan who was deceived by Jin Beibei Auction House organized major chambers of commerce and retail investors to block the door. There were crowds of people outside and they could not get out. The parliament had urgently dispatched thousands of Blade Silver Guards, but the sea clan who organized the incident was a mermaid royal family after all, and the Blade Silver Guards did not dare to act rashly. Now they can only guard and guard to prevent someone from going to extremes and causing riots.
How to break it? It can't be broken.
Blade City...
The headquarters of the Blade Alliance is located in a triangle area between the Duchy of Debang and the Duchy of Longyue. The main city alone has nearly 10,000 square kilometers. It is the largest city on the Jiutian Continent except the Nine Gods Capital. The Blade Council, which controls the entire Blade Alliance's authority, is located in the eastern city of this city.
The parliament hall is built in a grand and brilliant manner. The huge white jade pillars, like Odin's palace, are twenty meters high and more than a hundred of them are arranged side by side. The entire palace is extremely majestic, like a hall built for ancient giants.
At this moment, on a long table in the parliament hall, a group of MPs were red in their faces of debate.
"Aurora City is an important town on the southeast bank of my blade and the most important free port for trade with the sea tribe. Not to mention the tax revenue created for the alliance every year, the meaning of its harbor alone is extraordinary!" The person who spoke was a very rude beard. He was tall and burly, and his voice was as thick as a bell: "The operation of Aurora City has always been good before. The city lord Ms. Meghan was in power for seven years. Although the development was not enough, she was more than enough to maintain her success. However, Elder Fu said that a female person was not interested in making progress and she retreated from the front line. Arranged with your Elder Fu's confidant Kollev. Leave this trick in less than three months after taking office, causing the operation of Aurora City to be almost paralyzed and lost a major town on the southeast bank of my life. Could it be that Elder Fu would not give a explanation to the parliament?!"
"Haha, what kind of female people are not enterprising? It's just that Ms. Megan is closer to the Lei family!" Someone sneered: "Elder Fu and Lei Long are well aware of it. I dare to say that this ridiculous act is not for personal grudges? It would be fine if Kollev was really talented, but now it's a big mistake. Please give me an explanation!"
There were constant responses, almost one-sided voices.
It is obvious that the people who speak are reformists. In parliament, controversies between conservatives and reformists have always been frequent, but this time, the reformists have attacked them, but it is the first time that the conservatives are speechless. To be honest, putting aside the difficulties of Aurora City now, this is really a satisfying thing for the reformists.
Elder Fu Changkong's hair was gray and sat at the front of the right side of the long table. The main seat of the long table was empty, which was the speaker's seat. As the first dragon-level master in the Blade League, the speaker has not attended the internal meeting of the parliament for a long time. I don't know whether he was in seclusion or traveling. Over the past year, most of the various resolutions of the Blade League were voted by the members of the parliament.
In fact, the parliament does not only have two major factions, conservatives and reformists, but also has a larger number of neutral factions. These people, headed by Deputy Speaker Hankura, are absolutely loyal to the Speaker and will not be bought by one side. They are fair in everything and only consider from the perspective of the interests of the Blade Alliance. They are also the main force in the balance between conservatives and reformists.
At this time, accusations were everywhere, and the neutral congressmen all turned their eyes to Fu Changkong sitting in the front of the right. However, Fu Changkong smiled slightly and said lightly: "At present, everything is not over, and the riots are about to begin. You don't think about how to solve the problem first, but you are eager to blame Fu. What is your intention? Is it more important to pour some dirty water on me, Fu, than the actual interests of Blade? Or is it more important than the peace and stability of Aurora City?"
The people who accused the people just now were sneering, and the bearded man took the lead and said: "Solving the troubles of Aurora City is important, but accountability is equally important. Accountability is to calm public anger! It is for the stability of Aurora City! Killing only one Kollev is of no use!"
"That kill Mr. Fu?"
The bearded man was stunned, and Fu Changkong smiled slightly and looked at him. His scheming eyes were deep and dull.
"Mr. Barker, the situation in Aurora City is complicated. Korlev was just deceived. The big mistake has been made. Now he has apologized for his life. What's the point of continuing to hold him accountable? The people who are making trouble in Aurora City are not asking anyone to go out to take the blame in the parliament. They only care about their own losses." As he said, he no longer looked at the bearded Barker, but turned to look at other members: "Now we should focus on how to appease the people..."
The bearded Backer sneered and interrupted him: "Is it useful to speak vernacular? Elder Fu is so capable, why don't Elder Fu give everyone a solution to soothe the people?"
Fu Changkong smiled slightly: "White words are used well! Solving any problem requires the right medicine. How much do we know about the merchants under Aurora City? Sitting on this long table to talk about war is really a solution? Drugs need to be correct. I think the Lei family has lived in Aurora City for a long time, and former councillor Lei Long is even more respected in Aurora City. If this matter is left to him to solve, I am afraid that within three days, the parliament will be able to see the good news coming to the parliament."
As soon as the words were spoken, the long table was buzzing. The conservative MPs smiled and the neutral guys were talking, but the reformist group was a little furious.
The bearded Barker is an old friend of Thunder Dragon. Although they are not the leaders of the reformist party, they are also heavyweights in the reformist party. At this time, he slapped the table: "Fu Changkong, what do you mean? The people under your command have caused a huge mess, but they want Thunder Dragon to help you wipe your butt? Why do you think so beautifully?"
"Mr. Balk, you're a little over the words," Fu Changkong smiled and said, "As both members, we serve for the Blade Parliament, what are we going to do with each other? What's important now is to resolve the conflict between Aurora City. Thunder Dragon has been in Aurora City for decades. Whether it's prestige, status, ability, or understanding of Aurora City, no one in my council is right. He is the most suitable candidate to appease Aurora City merchants, but just to fight with me.
Members of Barke must firmly oppose it regardless of whether Aurora City will be destroyed in the riots? I think this is not what Thunder Dragon is willing to see. Putting aside everything else, Thunder Dragon is noble and always puts the blade first. I, Fu, have always admired it very much. Even if he has many difficulties, he will not sit idly by and watch Aurora City destruction. He will not refuse this matter, but only asks the Council to order the riots in Aurora City. The riots in Aurora City may be solved. Please think twice."
On the long table, everyone was talking, and many neutral MPs nodded when they whispered, obviously agreeing with this view very much.
Deputy Speaker Hankula is about fifty years old, and his national character face is not angry and powerful. He has always been known for being upright and upright. To be honest, he doesn't care whether this matter is a conservative or a reformist benefiting from it. All he wants is to solve the current dilemma of Aurora City: "That's good, this matter..."
Seeing that the matter was about to be finalized, Barkel was anxious and stood up and said loudly: "Mr. Hankula, all the members! Everyone knows that Aurora City is a mess now. Those merchants lose real money. Even if Lei Long has great face, can he still use face as money? This is a difficult matter. Fu Changkong is completely trying to divert his attention and shirking responsibility. His heart is punished! There is no reason why his subordinates make a fuss, but in the end he let Lei Long take the blame!"
Hankula pondered for a moment. What Fu Changkong said was actually a solution, but after all, it doesn't make sense. Thunder Dragon is not a small role of a cat or a dog. If the parliament clearly throws trouble to him, it will probably be counterproductive. Moreover, Thunder Dragon has long been separated from the parliament and is not under the jurisdiction of the parliament, so there is no way to start giving orders.
Someone said, "If you succeed, you will succeed. Even if you fail, no one will blame Lord Lei Long. How can you take the blame?"
"Just, why didn't Elder Fu solve it personally? Success or failure doesn't matter, and no one will blame you Fu Changkong!"
Fu Changkong smiled slightly and did not respond. Compared with his identity, Barker and him are not of the same level. The reformist man is not in Blade City at the moment. This is a great opportunity for him to expand his foundation in the conservatives, and it is also the main reason why conservatives have frequently gained advantages in all aspects recently.
"Barke! Elder Fu has a good temper and doesn't care about you, but I can't see it!" Someone slapped the table and jumped up: "When Korlev first took office some time ago, you kept saying that only the Lei family was in charge of Aurora City to maintain stability. Only the Lei family has the ability to govern Aurora City and is going to fight for power and throne. But now something small is happening and you need your efforts, you say that the Lei family is not good, and you can't handle things in Aurora City? Which sentence is true and which sentence is false?"
"Is five billion riots a small matter? What's more, this matter is not only involved in the major chambers of commerce in Aurora City, but also the sea clan and orcs! They only recognize money, and even the speaker's face is probably not good!"
"Then you give me a solution?"
"You caused the matter, why should we solve it?"
"Hahaha, where is the Blade Parliament? What are you and us? Balk, you are clearly forming a party for personal gain!"
In a few words, the long table in the council had become a quarrel.
Fu Changkong was there, closing his eyes to rest, while Hankura and several neutral MPs shook their heads frequently with frowns.
To be honest, it is normal for the two major factions to quarrel here, and it is strange not to argue with the sky, but the problem of Aurora City always needs to be solved. When will it end if such a quarrel continues?
While I was clamoring, I suddenly heard an urgent knock outside the door: "There is news from Aurora City!"
The noisy conference hall was quiet for a moment, and Fu Changkong also opened his eyes and saw someone submitting an urgent report. The speaker was not there, and the reformist one was not there. Among the current parliament halls, Hankula and Fu Changkong were undoubtedly the highest-ranking ones.
Fu Changkong gave in, and Hankula was not polite. He took the urgent report and saw it slightly stunned. Then he frowned, but finally breathed a sigh of relief.
He put the urgent report gently into the middle of the long table, and a smile finally appeared on his face: "The matter in Aurora City has been settled."
Fixed?
All the members of parliament were stunned, and Fu Changkong was also slightly stunned. The problem that had troubled the parliament for several days had not even discussed a solution to the parliament. But there was actually said that it had been flattened? How did it be flattened?
The emergency report began to spread rapidly in the hands of a member of the congress, but it was not a report from the Blade Silver Guard or the acting city lord, but a proposal submitted by a merchant in Aurora City.
He is the vice president of the Ocean Chamber of Commerce and the owner of An Hetang. He took out one billion euros in the name of the Ocean Chamber of Commerce and invested in the original planned trading market project of Aurora City. At the same time, he mobilized the Orcs' Land Chamber of Commerce and the Jinbeibei Auction House of the Sea Clan to continue to fulfill the contract with the previous City Lord's Mansion, and took out the subsequent contract of 1 billion euros, totaling 3 billion yuan, to rebuild the largest trading market of Aurora City.
However, according to the conditions of the sea clan and orcs, it is hoped that the parliament will give these three major shareholders autonomy over the Aurora City trading market. In return, they can give 30% of the profits each year and distribute dividends to all previous investors in proportion to compensate investors for their losses and end the Aurora City riot.
Everyone in the parliament hall was silent after seeing it.
To be honest, everyone knew from the beginning that only giving money was probably the only solution to appease the rioters, but the parliament was unwilling to pay the money, and at the same time, it could not handle the difficult sea tribes and orcs.
But now, some people are willing to pay for the trouble, and they have settled the sea clan and orcs, and have also given an explanation to the retail investors who are causing trouble below. This is obviously the situation that everyone is looking forward to the most. But what the other party wants is quite obvious, "autonomousness over the Aurora City trading market" means?
This kind of autonomous region is actually not uncommon, it is equivalent to a small country, but so what?
To be honest, this is very reasonable. In Aurora City's mess now, the reputation of that trading market is bad. Even the parliament does not dare to spend money in. People are willing to pay for it. Don't give some policy advice and encouragement? Who dares to take over?
But how to give power? If you discuss with the other party one by one, it will obviously last for a long time, which is not conducive to the original intention of the current parliament to hope that Aurora City will be stable as soon as possible. If you want to cut the mess quickly, there is only one way left, and give it directly to the lord! In extraordinary times, as long as Aurora City can get back on track as soon as possible, they can do whatever they want within the scope of the Blade Alliance's large framework law.
The orcs are definitely impossible to be the city lord, and the sea clans cannot let them take care of Aurora City. Amberlin, among these three major shareholders, is the only candidate.
If a businessman came out casually, the MPs might hesitate and consider it, but Amberlin of Anhetang is not unfamiliar with this group of MPs.
The vice president of the Ocean Chamber of Commerce is only his businessman. He is also a well-known founder at the Cathedral Career Center. He is also a decent person. He has a reputation both in the Temple and the Blade League. More importantly, although he did not occupy the team, everyone knows that this person's style is conservative.
This is probably the only result that everyone can accept.
