Nine idlers

Begent has been a marseille terminal management official for more than 30 years, and he knows all the large European freight companies stationed in Marseille port. (Usually these companies have some private goods that violate the constitution, or need his help to transport some goods secretly or people leave, and he also makes a lot of money from this. In Marseilles, he belongs to the kind of rich and decent He is a person, but he is not really a high-class person. For this reason, he did not hesitate to spend a lot of money to let his son marry the only heir of Earl Richard's family, an old woman who is only ten years younger than him.

Bejan is very clear about everything that happened in the small city of Marseille, especially the movement of those big companies. After all, he needs to rely on this to make money.In the past two days, he found that the Oriental Trading Mediterranean Branch seemed to be moving a little bit abnormally. At first, he thought that some important goods were coming in and out, thinking that he could make a lot of money again, but after inquiring, he finally realized that the boss of the Eastern Trading Company had to come over in person. Pick up an important person.

In the French business and aristocratic circles, the owner of the Oriental Trading Company is a miracle, an enviable miracle.The boss of the Eastern Trading Company came from the Eastern Empire, which was mysterious and powerful in the past, but is now backward and barren. Known for her beauty and wisdom, Countess Eliza of the French royal family has really entered the upper aristocratic circle.In recent years, his actions have become even bigger. He has acquired several large textile factories and machinery factories. In the process of breaking up the East India Company in Britain, he secretly seized the Nordic maritime trade, as well as parts of Germany, Denmark, and France. The railway rights have become one of the largest companies in Europe.

Compared with ordinary people, Bejan's occupation allowed him to know many unknown things related to the Eastern Trading Company.Compared with the glory of the Eastern Trading Company, many large European companies are actually very jealous of the boss of the company. In their view, such achievements can only appear on Europeans, and should not be obtained by a backward oriental native.For this reason, they joined forces and used many means to suppress the Eastern Trading Company, but with the support of the Countess.The Eastern Trading Company survived crisis after crisis.Moreover, those who played tricks secretly died of strange things soon after, and some even exterminated their families because of this.

Until recently, there were some rumors that there was an unknown and terrifying force behind that lucky Easterner to clean up his opponents. Although many people scoffed at this, no one dared to test the authenticity of the matter. maintain a close and distant cooperative relationship.But Bejan believed this rumor, because he had seen with his own eyes that the Marquis Lucas, who once controlled the entire port of Marseilles, died of a heart attack on the ship the next day after he had quarreled with a few Orientals in the dock warehouse. The land inheritance was also inexplicably given to a distant nephew who had never seen him.After the nephew inherited the inheritance, he immediately sold all the inheritance to the Eastern Trading Company at a low price.Therefore, the Eastern Trading Company established the Mediterranean Branch and began to intervene in the trade and freight of the Mediterranean.

Compared with other companies in Marseilles who reject the Eastern Trading Company, Bejan, who knows some secrets, will naturally not do the kind of thing that puts himself in a dangerous place. He tries his best to trade with the Eastern Trading Company without offending others. The company has a good relationship.In fact, all these years, he thinks that his approach is very wise. He not only got money from the Eastern Trading Company, but also gained a corresponding friendship. His son's marriage was only successfully completed by the owner of the Eastern Trading Company. .Of course he was very grateful.

This morning, the manager of the Oriental Trade Mediterranean Branch sent a message, asking Bejan to clear out Pier No. [-] and keep people away.In this regard, Bellang naturally did not dare to neglect, and cleared the pier early in the morning.And also let two teams of soldiers stop on both sides of the pier, prohibiting people from approaching.Many Mercedes officials were dissatisfied with Bejan's big move, but they heard that it was a request from Eastern Trade, and all dissatisfaction was suppressed.

When the time was close to noon, a large group of carriages drove in from the wealthy villa area outside Marseille, and soon arrived at Pier No. [-].After the carriage stopped, some luxuriously dressed people came down one after another, and nearly half of them were oriental.Although other foreigners get along well with Orientals.But there is always a sense of repulsion, and they are divided into two sides after getting off the car.There is little intersection with each other.

Bejan, who had been waiting on the pier, walked towards a luxurious carriage protected by eight burly orientals after the convoy stopped.In addition to the luxurious appearance of this carriage.Even more eye-catching are the two-headed dragon shield badges on either side of the doors.Anyone who has a little knowledge of the history of the French aristocracy will know that this badge belongs to the famous French Merianton family.This family can be regarded as an ancient French royal family. It had a period of glory in the period of Louis XIV and Louis XVI, but it was repeatedly attacked by the Bonapartists during the Napoleon period. In just a few years, the family was almost wiped out until Elisa The Countess of Merianton married that oriental man, and the Merianton family returned to the aristocratic circle and became the middle class of the French upper class.

As the door opened, the first person to get out of the carriage was Sir Joan, the steward of the Merianton family.Although this old man who had served the Merianton family for generations looked old, he still had a sharp look in his eyes, and the aristocratic temperament he had accumulated over the years made him just slightly nodded at Belle, which made Belle feel deeply honored.Then Countess Eliza, who came down from the carriage, even attracted the exclamation of the crowd on the pier. At that moment, everyone felt that the scorching sun at noon suddenly dimmed, and all the light seemed to be concentrated. On the countess.In the eyes of everyone, the beauty of the Countess is so pale if any words in the world are used to describe it. All women can't help but feel ashamed in front of her. This little angel who inherited her mother's temperament and appearance can not be affected by her mother's glory.

It was also because of the Countess' amazing beauty that the majestic oriental man who came out afterwards received countless jealous looks, especially when the little angel was held in his arms, and the Countess hugged his arm intimately At this time, this jealous sight has also increased to the point where it is enough to kill.
