When Mo Bei heard Alvin's defense, he felt helpless to complain.
Does this have anything to do with your personality? The victim should be looking for you. .
But then he heard Alvin say:
"Nothing I did that day was out of my will. I may be that kind of bear, but I'm definitely not that kind of person!"
Hello. . You won't really be divided, right?
The friends were all speechless. These words sounded even more ridiculous. They were talking about nothing. . .
But when Mo Bei caught the enthusiasm hidden in Alvin's eyes, he immediately understood something.
This guy doesn't seem to be shirking responsibility, but rather maintaining his own positive image!
Little brother, what do you want to do? ?
I don’t want to work hard when I’m young! ?
This is indeed the same lazy guy from before. . . Nothing has changed!
Valena frowned slightly, as if her thoughts were disturbed by Alvin's inexplicable words. She was also speechless for a moment, but looked at Alvin for a few seconds with a look that looked like a fool, and then shook her head gently. He shook his head, turned around and left without even mentioning Tabetha.
The little brother obviously failed to leave a good impression on this plump and beautiful lady.
He looked at Valenna's back full of mature female charm and sighed, looking a little disappointed.
Ned patted him on the shoulder, his smiling face showing no sign of comfort.
Mo Bei spread his hands towards the three girls who were a little confused, saying that he couldn't understand what happened just now. Seeing Alvin's disappointed look, he was thinking:
You are so disappointed.
The timing, occasion, atmosphere, expression, and apparent identities of both parties were not suitable!
That way I have to be able to be seduced by you, okay?
Through the window, they saw Valena, escorted by a team of attendants, observing the wind turbines at close range in the smelter compound, looking quite curious.
However, when she was talking to Conrad just now, she did not ask about these things. Instead, the purpose was clear, always focusing on how to maintain stability in Kaltim City, eliminate hidden dangers, and emphasized overtly and covertly the importance of the livelihood of ordinary residents to The Importance of the Kingdom.
With her relationship with Conrad and Conrad's past behavior, she didn't need to pretend to be like this. And from her tone, you can also feel the determination that you have to say it even if you don't want to hear it, so this is probably indeed based on her true thoughts.
On the surface, everything she said was for the better development of the family business, but if refined, maybe she made her position clear from the beginning.
This land was already too barren, and now that Mo Bei and the others had put an end to the profit-seeking game of the powerful, it was equivalent to creating an opportunity to open up a new situation.
Valena must have been aware of this, and aware of the various hidden dangers hidden under the drastic changes, and came to remind Conrad.
Regardless of whether this woman has a deeper agenda, at least the measures she just proposed are worthy of recognition.
Not only did she take over this heavy burden, but she also refused Perona's temptation to ask how much money was needed, which made Mobei and the others feel that they could temporarily trust her.
Berg, the president of the Federation of Commerce and Industry, waited in a certain reception room for almost an hour before he saw Conrad slowly walking into the room.
"His Royal Highness is quite busy now, isn't he?" Borg joked without ridicule.
He had long lost his previous airs and temper, but similarly, Mo Bei and others also lost the patience to test him verbally. Conrad asked directly:
"What are your plans?"
Boge smiled bitterly upon hearing this, paused, and said in a harsh voice:
"Small traders like us are forced to unite together. In the past, we were lucky enough to withstand the pressure brought by the princes and big families, but now the situation is completely chaotic. The Holy See not only has powerful force, but also controls the kingdom's speech. Internal affairs like ours are It is almost impossible for an alliance with complex composition and different agendas to unite against the Holy See, not to mention that our control over family guards and mercenaries is dwindling day by day, and there is no hope."
Conrad said nothing, waiting for Borg to get to the point.
Borg understood and said no more. After a pause, he solemnly said:
"We want to advance and retreat together with His Highness the Prince!"
"Why don't you just surrender to the Holy See? They will always leave a way for you to survive." Conrad asked noncommittally.
"The Holy See will meet, but Virgil has completely broken up with both of us. This time he has implicated us, and we will not be able to breathe in the future. Based on your understanding of him, do you think he will Let any opponent who loses power live..."
"Do you think I have a chance of winning?" Conrad asked.
"To be honest, during this period, His Highness the Prince's means and courage have amazed me, and it has completely subverted all of us's impression of you. I think it is not an accident that the current situation has occurred. His Highness has become the ultimate winner, and The ability to rebuild the rules!”
When Perona outside the door heard Borg's seemingly sincere compliments, she couldn't help but cast a glance at Mo Bei, wondering how this prodigal thing could be so powerful.
Mo Bei also heard the conversation inside through the crack in the door that was not concealed, and felt that the evaluation he had received for his behind-the-scenes operations during this period was quite pertinent!
There is no way, the layout is too different, there is no pressure to win.
"So, what can you do to advance and retreat with me?" Conrad bluntly pointed out the key point.
The implication is that the Federation of Commerce and Industry has reached the point where it exists in name only, and people's hearts have been dispersed. What difference does it make if we take you with us or not?
Borg was at a loss for words and a little nervous.
It's not because of you, a reckless lunatic, that we have become so miserable. . . .
He thought for a while, sat up a little straighter, and said:
"If...if His Royal Highness the Prince can make a statement to the outside world, announcing that he will work with the Chamber of Commerce and Industry to fight against the Holy See's exclusive ruling, we may be able to re-form a cohesive force internally, and various families and their guards and mercenaries will also give birth to Confidence in joint resistance, we still have two days to prepare..."
Conrad raised his hand and waved, and Borg immediately stopped speaking, and the hope in his eyes dimmed.
He actually knows in his heart that if it were him, he would not agree to such a decision to revive his opponent. Even though he has made it clear that the Federation of Commerce and Trade has no other way out, the trust basis for cooperation between the two parties is infinitely close to zero. .
Mo Bei outside the door immediately sensed this possibility. He had only been able to suppress prices for a short period of time. Even though he had severely damaged the Federation of Commerce and Trade, these big businessmen were far from reaching the end of their rope.
At present, they have only been dispelled of the hope of struggle and entered a stage of continuous decline. Let them regain cohesion and confidence? Let's forget it and get stabbed in the back later. .
It's impossible that just because Conrad stood up and called out in this situation, those people would look up to him, but when they saw a thigh in despair, they would force up their breath and hug him tightly.
But when they feel that they are good again and can cause trouble again, it will be difficult to say. The two sides have been in a confrontational relationship for a long time, so how can they unify their ideologies so quickly.
Moreover, speaking up in advance and being prepared to confront him head-on was a stupid arrangement in Mo Bei's opinion.
He heard Borg cough unnaturally, but never said anything. The conversation in the reception room had reached a deadlock, so he waved over a guard and said:
"Go and fetch the madam."
