Nightmare Card House

"Hobson." Bray pursed his lips at Hobson, "Everything is up to Mr. Fang Tian!"

"Yes! Your Highness!" Hobson raised the sword in one hand, bowed slightly to Bray, and walked behind Fang Tian.

"Thank you for your cooperation, I'll go first." Fang Tian turned his back and thought of something, "By the way, Pete, how is the magic laboratory I want going?"

Pet wiped the sweat stains on his forehead, "Mr. Fang Tian, ​​we are already building it according to your requirements, but in terms of funds..."

"So that's it, stay calm, I believe we will get the money soon."

After that, Fang Tian took Hobson out of the hall together.

Watching Fang Tian and the others leave the conference hall, Bray's face was extremely cold. He clenched his fists and gritted his teeth and said, "Use my money to build a laboratory..."

Pet wanted to say something to dissuade him, but barely held back. He knew Bray's temper. Sometimes he would do something if he was not allowed to do it. He was a little worried that Bray and Fang Tian would have a conflict.

Unexpectedly, a moment later, Bray suddenly burst into laughter again.

"Your Highness, what are you laughing at?"

"None of these people are good! Do they think they can play with me? You are kidding! It is better to make him and those idiots lose both! Then we will crush them both in one fell swoop and send them all to hell!"

Bray cursed Fang Tian viciously, then turned his head and said: "Pate! You have to keep a close eye on Fang Tian for me these days. I want to know everything he does clearly. Do you understand!"

"Yes, Your Highness!"

Pate breathed a sigh of relief and immediately went to work.

...

After leaving the parliament hall, Fang Tian and Hobson gathered the people, and the guards took great pains to load more than a dozen large boxes prepared by Fang Tian into the car, and then left the castle together.

According to the laws and regulations of the principality, in the town, in addition to the distinguished royal family members, there are also personnel belonging to the special army who are allowed to ride in the city, and others can only dismount and lead.

In the past two days, Hobson also recruited more guards and barely gathered a team of 30 people.

In terms of combat capability, this team is still very weak. If Hobson does not take action, the entire team's level is about the combat level of two advanced skeleton warriors.

"Fang Tian, ​​what are you going to do?" Hobson did not know whether Fang Tian had any plans, nor did he know what was hidden in these boxes. He just followed Fang Tian out of the castle and walked along the path to the trade area in the center of the city.

"None of these chambers of commerce are willing to pay taxes. It is obvious that they have united to deal with His Highness Bray." Fang Tian licked his lips, "The mastermind behind this is..."

"Adila Chamber of Commerce." Hobson is much smarter than he looks. In the past two days, he has found out a lot of things related to the city. "They control more than half of the chambers of commerce in the entire city. This tax issue is also secretly led by them."

Fang Tian hummed lightly, as if thinking about something.

Hobson waved to the side, and a thin attendant followed.

"This is A Luo, who just joined the guards these two days. He is familiar with the situation here."

"Mr. Fang Tian." A Luo came up respectfully to greet him.

Fang Tian's eyes swept over A Luo. He had dark skin and was short, but his eyes were shrewd.

"Adi La Chamber of Commerce, are they very strong?"

"The best in the city." A Luo gave Fang Tian a thumbs up, with a yearning look on his face, and then said: "Adi La Chamber of Commerce is one of the top chambers of commerce in the entire empire. This one in the city is a branch of the chamber of commerce. It is very strong. Every time they transport important materials, there are hundreds of guards accompanying them. It is said that there are even silver-level sword guards in the guard team."

Fang Tian had a rough understanding of this. In this shadow world, the strength of ordinary swordsmen is divided into three levels: black iron, silver and gold. In the Principality, various swordsman guilds assess individual strength. Generally, employers recruit sword guards of different levels and offer different prices.

Hobson had just entered the silver stage a year ago.

"Fang Tian, ​​what are you going to do? We just go to their door? I'm afraid they won't pay taxes obediently. If we use force..." Hobson scratched his hair. He didn't want to play hardball. After all, they were not strong enough. "Doing so will cause a backlash from the entire Notting City Chamber of Commerce, and the consequences are difficult to predict."

Fang Tian seemed to have planned it long ago. He waved his hand and said with a smile: "Hobson, I know you have experienced many wars, but I still want to say, don't always think about fighting and killing. I still prefer peace."

Hobson felt that it was very strange to hear such words from Fang Tian, ​​and even had the urge to laugh, but he held it back.

The team went straight through the center of the city until they arrived at the city gate.

When the guards at the city gate saw Fang Tian and his party, they stretched out their hands to signal them to stop and prepared to go forward for inspection.

Hobson felt strange. He originally thought that Fang Tian would take them to the Chamber of Commerce to cause trouble for it, but he didn't expect that they would come directly to the city gate. It seemed that they wanted to leave the city?

From a distance, seeing the guards coming to the gate, Fang Tian frowned again, "Hobson, it's strange, why aren't these guards here our people?"

This question troubled Hobson deeply. He sighed in his heart and said, "These are Lord Versailles' personal guards."

"Personal guards? Shouldn't our people occupy the town?"

Hobson smiled bitterly in his heart, thinking that I thought the same thing, but Bray also has to pay people.

Fang Tian noticed Hobson's miserable expression and smiled mockingly, guessing in his mind, "I heard you say before that there are garrisons in this town. So, the command authority of these garrisons is also in Versailles. Sir’s hand?”

"Yes, that's right. After entering the town and settling down, I immediately tried to control the garrison here, but encountered strong obstacles. They did not obey His Majesty Bray's order." Hobson also knew the importance of controlling military power. Sex, but unfortunately, he couldn't do it. These sergeants didn't care about him at all, and the Bray who was with him at the time was too weak, and he couldn't compete with these slippery soldiers.

What's even more disappointing is that after being ridiculed, Bray didn't say a word and ran away in despair.

Although Hobson was very angry at the time, what he brought was a defeated team of remnants. Not to mention the combat effectiveness of the opponent, even Bray ran away directly. The morale of the team had dropped to the bottom, and they could only follow in despair. run.

Fang Tian didn't know that Hobson had almost had a conflict with the soldiers. There was a flash of anger in his slightly narrowed eyes. He couldn't help but snorted coldly and said curiously: "That's weird. It's obviously our town." , why should I accept inspection from others?”
