Lord of War

  Each chamber of commerce will have a different pattern as its emblem.

  At the beginning, the badge of the chamber of commerce was only used to distinguish the chambers of commerce. However, with the establishment of the Chamber of Commerce Union, the emblem gradually became the identity and status symbol of the chambers of commerce, and when the Chamber of Commerce Union established the trade capital and became a huge force that cannot be ignored on the entire continent, these emblems also became A recognition of strength.

  Especially the top ten chambers of commerce.

  When their caravan trades on the mainland, as long as they hold high the flag with the emblem, there will never be robbers who dare to attack.

  This is the manifestation of strength.

  The only ones who dare to challenge the top ten chambers of commerce are the savages in the Wildlands.

  Even the orcs in the barbarians on the western side of the mainland would not go to the top ten chambers of commerce.

  Of course, this is the past tense.

  Because those who dare to challenge the top ten chambers of commerce nowadays, there is one more Sean.

The pioneering knight under the command of the former Marquis of Tonis, and now the baron of the Duchy of Lane, directly issued an ultimatum in front of the Leiyun Merchant Guild, and ordered the Leiyun Merchant Guild to hand over all the materials in the inventory within two days. , Otherwise he will use force.

  For the Thunder Cloud Chamber of Commerce, which can now be regarded as the overlord level, it is simply a shame.

  And because of Sean’s deliberate actions, after saying this, all the chambers of commerce in the entire gray shadow black market soon knew about Sean’s ultimatum to the Thunder Cloud Chamber of Commerce. Of course, I also know the decree issued by Alfred before: all the chambers of commerce affiliated to the chamber of commerce alliances will be confiscated, and any chamber of commerce that has ties to the chamber of commerce alliances must also pay a fine, even the chamber of commerce alliances Chambers of commerce that have not been contacted must also pay fines.

  It is naturally impossible for the Chamber of Commerce to obey such an extremely harsh law.

  So soon, these chambers of commerce all united.

  Even the chambers of commerce that had no contact with the chamber of commerce before, they all chose to unite at this time.

   Profit-seekers will always believe in the power of people and the momentum of public opinion.

  A small alliance of chambers of commerce is gradually forming in the gray and black market.

  For this, Sean is not only very clear, he can even say that all of this is caused by him. It's just that he didn't care about it at all, allowing this small chamber of commerce alliance to grow at an astonishing speed.

  This is a struggle between lords and merchants in the new era.

The reason for talking about the new era is that the continuous improvement of the status of merchants in the past millennium can affect or even control the economic lifeline of a country to a large extent. Therefore, the struggle between lords and merchants has been in the past nearly millennia. You can't see it at all. Because as long as the trade line is broken, let alone the lord, even a country as strong as the seven empires cannot survive.

  And this situation has only slightly improved in the past 100 years.

  Because various countries have begun to consciously cultivate chambers of commerce that are loyal to their own countries, and even allow royals to form chambers of commerce. These chambers of commerce will not and cannot join the alliance of chambers of commerce. Although to a large extent they will be squeezed out by the alliance of chambers of commerce, they have a whole country as their backing. The development of these chambers of commerce is fairly smooth. Of course, the most important thing is to ease the control of countries. Lifeblood.

   is also based on the emergence of this sense of confrontation, so in the last hundred years, the influence of the chamber of commerce alliance has begun to diminish, and various concessions have been made to seek larger-scale strategic cooperation. Of course, in many cases, the Chamber of Commerce Alliance still plays a very important leading role. At present, apart from the seven empires, there will never be more than ten countries that can completely get rid of the influence of the Chamber of Commerce.

  At least, the Principality of Lane is not in this list.

  So for Sean, the baron of the Principality of Lane, dare to provoke the authority of the Chamber of Commerce in such a positive way. This is absolutely intolerable for the Chamber of Commerce. In fact, if it had not been for the last time that the Chamber of Commerce Alliance might collude with the Devil, the Chamber of Commerce Alliance would have imposed economic sanctions on the Principality of Lane.

  And now, the Chamber of Commerce Alliance hasn't troubled Sean. This lord actually brought the soldiers to the door directly. As one of the top ten chambers of commerce, the Thunder Cloud Chamber of Commerce, how could it be tolerated. Therefore, the Gray Shadow Black Market Chamber of Commerce Alliance led by him has formed a force that cannot be ignored in just one day. This is the power of more than 30 chambers of commerce in the entire black market.

  At this moment, in the house that represents the power center of the entire black market in the middle of the gray shadow black market, Wilson is meeting a guest.

  This is a very charming middle-aged man.

  He wears a back cover hairstyle that is very popular in the aristocratic circle on the side of the Millennium Covenant Empire, revealing his smooth forehead. He was wearing a black-seed tuxedo. This dress was first popular among the aristocratic circles of the Emilia Empire. After being introduced to the Millennium Covenant Empire, it was improved to a certain extent before it became the current Millennium Covenant Empire. Popular noble clothing.

  Because the back of this tuxedo is longer than that of the Emilia Empire, and the opening is slightly larger, it is also called a large tuxedo.

  Whether it is from the hairstyle or the clothes, the middle-aged man is obviously well dressed and elegant.

  There is no doubt that this is a nobleman of a millennium covenant empire.

  Of course, his identity at this moment is not an aristocrat, but a deacon of the Thunder Cloud Chamber of Commerce.

  However, at this time, the face of the deacon of the Chamber of Commerce did not look very good.

He was staring at Wilson with a cold face. Although the words were still polite, the anger in his eyes could not be concealed: "Mr. Wilson, are you really letting the defiant lord take off in your black market? Did he even issue a decree for you, could it be said that the Black Market of Gray Shadow has become the territory of that lord?"

"The black market of gray shadows is still the black market of gray shadows. I think your Excellency should be aware that we demon hunters have always been neutral, and we can never lean toward either side." Facing the anger of the deacon of the chamber of commerce, Wilson's face seized. It seemed very calm, "So I and my subordinates will not intervene in the problem between your chamber of commerce alliance and that lord."

"Make a price." The anger in the eyes of the deacon of the Leiyun Chamber of Commerce was more intense, but in the end he was very restrained and kept calm and rational, and then said in a deep voice, "I know the rules of your demon hunters. , But I advise your Excellency not to take this opportunity to speak loudly."

   Obviously there is something to ask for, but it still looks aloof. This is probably the consistent attitude and practice of the top ten chambers of commerce.

Facing the words of the deacon of the Chamber of Commerce, Wilson smiled slightly, and then said something unexpected again: "I don't want to offend that lord, so no matter what the price is, I will not make a move... Of course, if you can hire other demon hunters, that's your ability, but I have said before that any demon hunters who intervene in this matter will no longer be protected by our gray shadow black market."

  Demon hunters who are no longer protected by the black market are equal to being blacklisted by the black market, and they will never be able to get funding support from the black market. Demon hunters who are generally blacklisted by the black market will be greatly excluded from the circle of demon hunters, and it is difficult for them to reintegrate into the new black market environment.

   So Wilson’s words are tantamount to breaking the possibility of the Chamber of Commerce Alliance seeking the support of other demon hunters.

No matter how much the deacon of the Chamber of Commerce can tolerate, he can no longer calm down at this moment: "You don't want to offend that lord, are you not afraid to offend our Chamber of Commerce Alliance? You have to be clear, once it is listed as a black by our Chamber of Commerce Alliance As for the list, you, the master of the black market in Gray Shadow, will probably end up."

  Wilson just smiled and did not answer.

"Okay!" Seeing Wilson's appearance, the deacon of the Chamber of Commerce already knew Wilson's attitude very well, and it didn't make any sense to stay, so he snorted and left without saying anything cruel. .

  It was not until the deacon of the Chamber of Commerce of Leiyun Chamber of Commerce left that Robert and Roma walked out from behind the scenes.

  Rome glanced at Wilson, then sighed helplessly: "As long as you are here in the future, the Black Market of Gray Shadow will be included in the blacklist of the Chamber of Commerce Alliance forever."

"So what?" Wilson smiled nonchalantly, "The businessman with high self-esteem can't give me what the lord can give me.... Besides, even with my help, he won't be the lord. At present, there are only six low-level golden powerhouses in the entire underground black market. It is still very possible to win an army with the addition of other demon hunters and chamber of commerce guards. But don’t forget, that lord is a leader. Three armies came over, two of which were steel wings and thunder lion."

  "Does that lord really dare to kill here?" Roma asked back.

  "Don’t you know the fate of the white se carrier pigeon?"

When Wilson said so, Rom was also taken aback, but still reluctant to admit defeat: "Then if you count me? Not to mention my strength, even my identity should be enough to make Sean scruples? "

"Do you really think that lord cares about this?" Wilson sneered. "Don't say you don't know what the lord is doing now. If it's just a threat, will he reject the Leiyun Chamber of Commerce's invitation for peace talks? He will let it go. Did the deacon of the Chamber of Commerce form a confrontation with him?... You should know better than me the purpose of what he did, Mr. Roma of the Black Hawk Chamber of Commerce. If Sean dares to mobilize such a large army to enter here, he just made up his mind to let the Chamber of Commerce. The alliance is bleeding heavily. At this moment, anyone who stands in his way will be crushed without hesitation."

   "It's more than bleeding." Rom sighed silently, because he knew what Wilson said were the truth, "He just wants to catch it all in one go....Thunder Cloud Chamber of Commerce will probably suffer a heavy loss this time."

   "So knowing that it was the result of failure, would you still intervene?"

  Rome shook his head.

  For a time, all three of them looked out the window.

  They could clearly see that the Lion King Alfred was leaving from a chamber of commerce with a dozen soldiers. These soldiers are empty-handed, obviously they have not gained anything from this chamber of commerce, and the lion king who frightened the nobles of the Darbion Kingdom has no expression on his face at this moment, he just silently leads people to leave the chamber of commerce. Then he entered another chamber of commerce, but it didn't take long before he left with empty hands.

   Outside the door of the chamber of commerce, the deacons of the two chambers of commerce stared at the lion king proudly. Their faces showed disdainful mockery, and beside them were the guards of the respective chambers of commerce. These people changed their previous stubborn attitude, and instead rejected Sean's expropriation with an extremely tough attitude, and even had a strong momentum to fight against the army under the lord, Sean.

  Similarly, Sean also changed the iron and blood at the beginning. On this day, all the troops under his command were restricted in the range of action. No matter how provoked by these chambers of commerce, no one urged them to trouble him. Even if Alfred came out empty-handed time and time again at this moment, and was ridiculed time and time again, there was still no **** scene.

  Everything looks like Sean reluctantly chose to compromise after facing the alliance of the Chamber of Commerce.

  But whether it is Roma, Wilson, or Robert, it is very clear that this is just the peace before the storm.

  Once the lord took action, it would be another act that shocked the mainland.

  In this special moment of suffering, time still advances with its own unwavering attitude.

  The two-day deadline given to Leiyun Chamber of Commerce by Sean had already arrived in an instant. rs
