Walking in the dark hallway.
In his ears, except for the footsteps of everyone, there was no unnecessary noise.
All the way.
Xue Yundu remained silent. From the moment he entered the city hall, he was carefully writing down the way out.
This is of course done in order to be able to take the others out of here as soon as possible after the incident is completed.
But in Croft's eyes, it turned out that the other party really appreciated the artworks and oil paintings in the house.
"What's wrong, Mr. Kondo..."
He raised his eyebrows.
Croft, who was leading the way, suddenly asked: "Are you also interested in the paintings here?"
Reacted suddenly.
Xue Yun immediately waved his hand, pretending to be embarrassed and said: "Ah, I just think the artwork here is very unique, and judging from the decoration style, it seems to be very old. It should be a few years old."
nowadays.
In Kroff's eyes, Xue Yun was already a rich man who loved art.
But I saw this guy smiled slightly and boasted on the spot: "That's natural. Although 'Frederiksborg' is a satellite town, it is a veritable ancient city..."
"This city hall is said to have been built more than four hundred years ago, which is not much different from the time when our 'Principality of Edsa' was founded. Perhaps, this satellite town already existed before the establishment of the 'Principality of Edsa' It’s been a long time.”
There was a pause.
Croft's face was full of pride and he continued: "According to legend, the first king of our 'Aisha Principality' started his career here, and then he was able to create the great and glorious civilization today."
He looked back at Xue Yun.
Kroff shook his head and sighed: "So, everything here is not for sale, so you should stop thinking about these ancient works of art."
"Yeah, that's such a pity..."
He forced a smile.
Xue Yun couldn't help but feel sick in his heart. He only wished that he had to slap this guy to death before it was time to fall out.
What kind of bullshit ancient civilization? !
In fact, he had no interest in these scraps at all. What Xue Yun really wanted was Sergei's head.
Everyone turned down several aisles and finally came to the door of a room.
"Mr. Kondo, please wait a moment."
Adjusted his sleeves.
Croft stepped forward and knocked on the door, asking in a low voice: "Sir, I have brought the guests. You see..."
"Let them in."
inside the house.
A woman's voice suddenly came out and said coldly: "However, only two people can come in at most. The others will be taken to the lounge to wait. You know, the Duke likes to be quiet."
Hear the words.
Xue Yun was slightly startled, and the three people behind him also couldn't help but frown.
Your Majesty...
This title almost made them ecstatic on the spot. After spending so much energy, they finally found the right person! ?
He turned around and winked at the three of them.
Xue Yun shook his head silently and secretly reminded everyone not to act rashly. At this juncture, it was not the time to be murderous.
"yes."
He quickly lowered his head and took a step back.
Kroof turned to look at Xue Yun and said with a wry smile: "Mr. Jintang, you heard it too, otherwise..."
"It's okay, I understand."
Smile calmly.
Without turning his head, Xue Yun pointed at Xuanyuan Qiong, who was looking confused, and ordered in a deep voice: "You go in with me, and the others will follow Chief Croft to the rest room."
There was a pause.
Xue Yun did not forget to make a pun: "Remember, you must understand the rules and never lose the etiquette of our empire on which the sun never sets."
Ever since.
No matter how reluctant Zhou Ruowen and Jin Shijie were, they had no choice but to follow Croft and leave behind them, followed by Angele who was being controlled.
That look really makes people feel a little funny.
"Your Majesty the Duke."
Take a deep breath.
Xue Yun was also suppressing the murderous aura in his body, pretending to be calm and asked: "Can we come in?"
"come in......"
Click~~
He reached out and pushed open the door.
What came into view was a huge living room.
The warm-colored lights shone down from the ceiling, making people unable to open their eyes for a while. The antique decoration was full of the unique national characteristics of "Elsa Principality".
In front of.
A huge curtain was forcibly raised, just enough to cover the people behind it.
On the right side of the curtain, a blond girl wearing a standard military uniform had stern eyes and a graceful figure standing upright. Her face was expressionless and there was no unnecessary smile at all.
"So, you are a wealthy businessman from the Black Dragon Society?"
Behind the huge curtain.
A slightly lazy voice sounded slowly, but there was an undoubted sense of majesty in the hoarseness.
military uniform......
Glancing at Dolly, a female officer standing by, Xue Yun became even more convinced that the man behind the curtain who was playing tricks on him might very well be Duke Sergei.
It's just that there is no room for arbitrary judgment in this matter. Once you do something, there will be no turning back. You must be 100% sure of the other party's identity.
"Yes."
A smile twitched at the corner of his mouth.
Xue Yun pretended to be relaxed, bent down and saluted, and said calmly: "General Croft should have told you that we, the Black Dragon Society, are willing to fund all your country's expenditures in the border area, including military expenditures. .”
He looked up at the hazy curtain.
Xue Yun continued: "The condition is that you need to help our "Black Dragon Club" obtain all agency rights for import and export trade with your country. What do you think?"
He didn't inquire about the other party's identity from the beginning.
If you want stability, you must proceed step by step.
The other party is not an idiot, and rashly revealing his intentions will only make the enemy alert.
Xue Yun resisted the impulse in his heart and kept telling himself that he must take his time, not show off anything, and make everything seem reasonable and natural.
"Of course this is a good thing!"
There was a trace of deep suspicion in the cheerful tone.
The man behind the curtain moved his body, and his hazy outline swayed from side to side inexplicably.
"Today is an extraordinary moment. What we need is a large amount of financial support. As for the right to trade between the two countries, it is actually the same for everyone."
A sly smile.
The man behind the curtain continued: "Whether it's the cabinet of the Empire on which the sun never sets, the royal family, or even an underground organization like your 'Black Dragon Society', as long as someone pays for the road, you can do whatever you want, from the bottom of my heart. , I don’t care at all who controls the so-called trade rights.”
"But the problem is..."
He pondered for a moment.
The voice of the man behind the curtain suddenly became extremely cold, and he asked in a deep voice: "How do you prove that you are a member of the Black Dragon Society? From the beginning to the end, I never got anything from Croft that could prove your identity. information......"
"That's weird, isn't it?"
Ugh~~~
The inexplicable sword chant suddenly sounded in the living room at an inappropriate time.
Xue Yun was startled and immediately looked back.
Xuanyuan Qiong behind him could be seen clenching his fists tightly, with a solemn expression, but a vague edge was faintly emanating from his body...
