In the early hours of the morning, after putting Yunia to sleep, Ma Wei lay in bed unable to fall asleep for a long time.
London's underground black market is actually related to the ancient gods!
This is not good news. Once the ancient god's forces infiltrate into London, it means that Ma Wei can no longer only consider the affairs of the Church of the Three Goddess of Destiny. The enemies hidden in the dark must also be taken into consideration.
If he had chosen the second prince Shukri's camp before and only needed to slowly become the second prince's confidant, now he must be wary of possible 'freedom members' in the second prince's camp.
This probability is very high. After all, the second prince Shukri is the support target of the Liberal Party. The biggest difference between the Liberal Party and the Conservative Party is that one supports free trade, new money, while the other supports the established aristocracy, old money.
Both the Liberal Party and the Conservative Party essentially rely on capital to control wealth, and their core ideas have many similarities with the purposes pursued by the Liberal Party.
Although the Conservative Party, which supports the old aristocracy, is more consistent with the teachings of the Free Association than the Liberal Party, the 'free trade' and 'liberal politics' pursued by the Liberal Party are more easily infiltrated by members of the Free Association.
In contrast, the hereditary nobles, who were originally the established capital of the Kingdom of Windsor, were more deeply influenced by the Church of the Three Goddesses of Destiny.
but....
This is the truth, but Mavey does not believe that there are no spies and spies from members of the Free Association within the Conservative Party. All forces that advocate capital will be slowly eroded by the Free Association.
Whether it is the camp of the eldest prince or the second prince, there are definitely members of the Free Association within it, especially after the London underground black market has a relationship with the ancient gods, this phenomenon is almost certain.
In contrast, it is Third Prince Andrew's camp, that is, the military, which is the least likely to be penetrated by the Free Association.
If you want to secretly promote the truth in this situation...
Looking at the dark ceiling, Ma Wei suddenly thought that he should take measures according to local conditions.
The situation in the Kingdom of Romanov is different from that of the Kingdom of Windsor.
The Romanov Kingdom has long-standing abuses. The primitive serfdom severely restricted the development of industry. The old nobles rested on their laurels and did not want to make progress. In this regard, it is necessary to take a sharp blow and implement radicalism to completely overthrow the decadent forces. , establish a new order.
In the Kingdom of Windsor, which has completed two industrial revolutions, people's lives are relatively prosperous compared to other kingdoms, especially after the Glorious Revolution. The promulgation of the "Bill of Rights" made the bourgeoisie and new aristocrats become the new ruling forces of the Kingdom of Windsor, restricting With the loss of royal power, capitalism prevailed....
Thanks to the wealth accumulated in the Age of Discovery and the foundation brought by the Industrial Revolution, the social contradictions in the Kingdom of Windsor are still accumulating. The proletariat is not facing an unsustainable situation in terms of food, clothing, housing and transportation. It can still survive by gritting its teeth, and 'free trade' ', 'Freedom to govern' also provides ordinary people with hope across classes. In this way, the contradiction between the proletariat and the bourgeoisie is unlikely to break out in the short term, and radicalism may not be supported by the public.
To deal with the Kingdom of Windsor, we need to change our thinking and act steadily. It is best to use gradualism to boil frogs in warm water, change the political situation little by little, gain the support of the people, and complete the spread of the truth.
Directly launching an armed coup, leading the people to overthrow the government and establish a new regime, as was done in the Romanov Kingdom, is not feasible in the Kingdom of Windsor.
If you want to take over the Kingdom of Windsor, you must carefully package the ideas of the Church of Truth, push it onto the political stage of the Kingdom of Windsor, slowly gain power, first control the kingdom and the people, and then solve the Church of the Three Goddesses of Destiny to achieve something similar to the Glorious Revolution Such a bloodless conflict and the smooth seizure of power.
The plank road is built openly and the warehouse is secretly built.
First of all, you have to occupy enough voice in Congress, such as establishing a party that belongs to the truth. This task can be given to the fourth prince Arthur and let him establish the 'Labor Party', and I will silently support it behind the scenes... Ma Wei secretly thought.
There is also the underground black market. Regarding the issue of the ancient gods, the fourth prince Arthur may not have enough power to solve it, so he can only place his hope on Ma Wei. This is also the mission of the church.
The Kingdom corresponds to secular powers such as the Free Association, and the Church corresponds to extraordinary beings such as the Ancient Gods.
Originally, everyone should perform their own duties, but if Ma Wei wants to spread the truth and end the Age of Apocalypse, he must put in more effort.
The Kingdom Church grasps with both hands and cannot let any one go.
There was definitely pressure. If London had not been infiltrated by the ancient god's forces, Ma Wei would have been more relaxed. As a result...
Backfired.
So he suffered from insomnia.
"First investigate the owner of Nightingale Club. Since 'Mr. Butler' hid those werewolves underground in the club, it means that the club must be related to the underground black market... Well, first investigate the club and see if we can follow the clues to find out. Find clues, if the club line doesn’t work, you have to go to Brookwood and contact the underground black market.”
After finalizing the plan, Ma Wei closed his eyes and tried his best to empty his mind, relax his body, and stop himself from thinking.
Ten minutes later....
Light snoring sounded.
The next day.
On the second day of the New Year, many shops are still closed, and Manstein's Potion Grocery Store is not open for business. There are still many demon hunters and police patrolling the city. No trace of the werewolf has been found so far. Many people are worried. They are thought to have escaped London.
Mawei spent a whole morning writing a detailed business tender document and planned to send it to the second prince Shukri in the afternoon. Under the pretext of letting him read it first, he secretly inquired about the Nightingale Club.
In order to ensure the accuracy of the news, Mawei asked Laiwen and Daniel to go out to investigate the Nightingale Club. To be precise, he asked Laiwen to pay the membership fee and join all the well-known gentlemen's clubs in London. In the name of membership, he investigated the inside of the club. What other nobles and gentry are there?
Of course, the real target is the Nightingale Club, and joining other clubs is just a pretense. However, Ma Wei originally planned to let Lai Wen sneak into the upper class of London, so there is no problem in joining the major clubs.
After lunch, Ma Wei and Lai Wen split up. Lai Wen and Daniel went to major clubs, while Ma Wei took Yunia to the second prince Shukri's villa in Regent's Park, while Edward stayed to look after the house.
"Nicholas!"
The second prince Shukri, who happened to be resting in the villa, heard Ma Wei's arrival and quickly greeted him warmly: "Why are you here?"
"I compiled a business tender document and brought it here to your Highness to see if there are any problems."
"Okay, okay, come in quickly!"
Seeing that Mawei was so concerned about the bidding, the second prince Shukri was also very happy. After ordering the maids to serve tea, he took Mawei and Yunia to the living room, took the business bid document, and read it carefully.
"Hmm...hmm...hmm!"
After reading the bid document, the second prince Shukri said with great satisfaction: "Every aspect is described in detail and well written, except for the split... I'm afraid the 50-50 split you proposed, Nicholas, needs to be considered. "
"Your Highness, how much do you think is appropriate?"
The second prince Shukri thought for a while and said: "The highest price the church can accept is seventy-three cents, seven for the church and three for the dealer... Of course I hope Nicholas can make more, after all, you are going to open a For a listed company, the more profit the company makes, the more dividends it will pay to shareholders. I also plan to buy a share, but the situation at the church must be taken into consideration. A 70-30 split is already the limit."
Ma Wei nodded and said: "Since your Highness said so, let's change it to Qi San."
From the beginning, Ma Wei’s ideal price in mind was 73. He knew that the church could not let a dealer take 50% of the sales. After all, there were still costs included, so he proposed a 50-50 split just to find out what the church could do. The highest price accepted.
When talking about business, the most important thing is 'talk'.
After reading the bid documents, the second prince Shukri took Mawei to talk about other topics. The maids brought tea and cakes. Yunia enjoyed the meal, and soon it was afternoon.
"Your Highness, have you caught those werewolves that sneaked into London?"
"How did you know that a werewolf had sneaked into the capital?"
"When the werewolves attacked yesterday, Mrs. Freya and I were at the celebration in Hyde Park. We were witnesses."
"oh--"
The second prince, Shukri, suddenly understood, and his expression immediately became ambiguous: "It seems that Nicholas, you and Freya are making rapid progress..."
"We haven't made any progress, we're just ordinary friends going shopping together..."
Smiling, Ma Wei changed the subject again: "Before coming to London, I heard that there are many gentlemen's clubs in London, each with its own characteristics. Felix has always wanted to join one. I wonder if your highness has any clubs you recommend? Fortunately, it’s relatively close to Flower Street.”
“A gentlemen’s club close to Flower Street....”
The second prince was in trouble for a moment. Who doesn’t know that East London is a slum?
Where can a top club exist in such a dirty and chaotic area?
Seeing that the second prince could not find a suitable target, Ma Wei pointedly reminded: "I heard that there is a club called Nightingale on the south bank of the Thames in Lambeth District, which is very good..."
"Nightingale Club?"
With a raised eyebrow, the second prince Shukri raised his head suddenly and stared directly at Ma Wei:
"Who told you this?"
