The cargo ship docked at the Rennes port began to unload its cargo. The people in the Rennes territory were no longer surprised to see the cargo being unloaded from ship to ship.
Renn is a very business-savvy guy. He not only established the transportation industry, but also built many hotels in his territory, including not only nobles but also large car shops for common people.
All in all, this old guy has been making crazy money recently. Not to mention a lot, he can earn hundreds of thousands of gold coins every month without any pressure.
The same is true for other lords, but it is much less than Rennes. For example, Baron Wayne, if he does not live along the river, his income will drop by more than half.
Bulk goods come from the river.
People from the commerce bureau began to check the goods. Finally, the goods brought by Jingming and Jingxi successfully passed the inspection. Both parties signed and pledged, and the money and goods were paid in full, and neither party owed anything to the other.
A branch of Blue Ocean Commercial Bank has also been established, which once again made Mogu Ling famous. Merchants from all walks of life have established branches one after another. It is expected that the tax revenue of Mogu Ling will have to be raised to a higher level.
But at this moment, trouble finally came.
The people from the Noble Management Department came, and the leader was Parker, the deputy director of the Noble Management Department of Baihua Province.
The person who met them was Guo Zan from the Foreign Affairs Department.
Parker looked sideways at Guo Zan and restrained himself after discovering that Guo Zan was a brave-level magician.
Guo Zan was still smiling and asked:
"Everyone, this year's tributes are ready.".
Parker smiled, took a sip of tea, and praised Guo:
"Don't worry about this. The main thing I have to do here is to do something else. I wonder if I can ask Lord Xu Kuang to come over?"
Guo Zan nodded and sent someone directly to invite Xu Kuang.
Parker asked:
"Have you made a lot of money recently?"
Guo Zan smiled and said:
"There are many people to feed, so the profit is not much."
Parker looked unhappy and said:
"I have heard of Lord Xu Kuang's reputation as a philanthropist in Moriel City."
Guo Zan was full of disgust for this Parker at this moment. How could he not hear the implication of Parker? Don't you just want the benefits?
Guo Zan looked at the fat guy in front of him with a fat face and a body as fat as a pig, and the more he thought about it, the more angry he became.
Fortunately, Xu Kuang is already here.
Xu Kuang looked at Parker and immediately said to him enthusiastically:
"Brother Parker, I have heard of your name for a long time. Small profits are not disrespectful."
Xu Kuang was followed by a row of people, each of whom opened a box.
It’s a bunch of watches.
Parker's eyes widened and he asked:
"Is that a top-notch men's watch from Hathaway Jewelry Store, with ten cubic meters of storage space, called the Noble Lux? I've only seen it on a poster, but never in real life."
Xu Kuang felt disgusted when he saw Parker like this, but he knew he couldn't offend this guy, so he could only hold his nose and admit it.
"A good horse deserves a good saddle, a good watch is given to a hero, and only the best watch is worthy of Mr. Parker, and everyone, everyone has a share."
Xu Kuang personally took the piece of noble strength and put it on Parker.
"Sure enough, a famous watch must have a good owner.".
Parker was overjoyed. Before he even entered the door, he had already received a luxury watch worth hundreds of thousands, which had already met his expectations. But when he saw Xu Kuang was so rich, he wanted to squeeze more money out of him. Some oil and water came out.
Parker hid the watch in his sleeve and said seriously:
"Baron Xu Kuang, I'm here to investigate the case. Don't let it happen again."
Xu Kuang looked at Parker in astonishment and asked:
"Are you here to investigate the case? Then you have to pay attention to your safety. Zhao Congfeng, Huo Kang, Xin Jian, and Zhou Jin, the four of you, are protecting Mr. Parker personally. If something happens to Mr. Parker, you just wait to be punished."
Upon hearing this, the four people immediately came to Parker and cut off all of Parker's escape routes.
Then the four of them released their breaths in unison, which scared Parker so much that his heartbeat stopped for half a beat.
"Four...are all four excellent experts?"
Xu Kuang smiled and said:
"Not entirely.".
Parker breathed a sigh of relief. In his opinion, who is an excellent person? Without any military exploits, as long as he surrenders to the Kingdom of Alto, he can become a viscount immediately. How could such people gather together in this small territory?
Xu Kuang smiled again and said:
"Congfeng is about to break through to the epic 10-star level.".
Parker's hands shook.
He looked at Zhao Congfeng, saluted, and said:
"Disrespect, disrespect."
The epic level can already become a marquis. Parker did not expect that this person would live in such a small place.
Speaking of which, Xu Kuang was also a little surprised. Xu Kuang didn't know how Zhao Congfeng and others gained experience. All in all, their upgrade speed was not much slower than Xu Kuang's.
Xu Kuang said to the four of them:
"Master Parker wants to investigate the case, and you must cooperate well. If something happens to Master Parker, eh?"
But Xu Kuang's momentum softened and he said:
"I am a cult-level alchemy priest, but I can't seem to do anything to you...".
Parker was almost pissed when he heard this sentence. He scolded the director of the Noble Management Department a hundred times in his heart. He thought to himself:
"Well, Angers, why are you so kind to give me such a good and profitable job? It turns out you are waiting for me here!"
Parker forced himself to calm down, and he smiled at Xu Kuang:
"I want to be able to move around freely."
Xu Kuang smiled and said:
"Understand, there will never be anyone stopping you up or down Mushroom Ridge. You can go in and out anywhere."
Parker explained to Xu Kuang while sweating profusely:
"I mean I don't need these four guards.".
Xu Kuang nodded and said to Zhao Congfeng and others:
"Then you go and do your own business."
Parker then thought about it, if these people really wanted to harm him, he would definitely not be able to hide away. If these people stayed around, they would still be somewhat suspicious if they were killed.
Parker sighed and said to Xu Kuang:
"Forget it, let these people guard me."
Xu Kuang smiled and nodded.
In the past few days, Parker has been visiting Mushroom Ridge constantly, trying to make Mushroom Ridge a mess. But every time he is about to make Mushroom Ridge a mess, the momentum of the four powerful men all rises. The brush was aimed at him, causing him to almost suffer a cardiac arrest.
Parker sighed. After checking for a long time, he realized one thing. People are polite before fighting. If he turned around after accepting the gift and left, this group of people would probably not show up. But now that he is investigating, no matter what he finds or If nothing can be found, these people will probably...
Parker finally had to choose to bow his head. He found Xu Kuang and said to Xu Kuang with a flattering face:
"Lord Xu, don't worry, I didn't find anything. I will say the same thing when I get back. I'm leaving."
