The arrival of Ivy brought a new guest to the third floor of the hotel. Mu Hua discovered that the conflicts among the heirs of the Benson family seemed to be more acute than he imagined.
Tabitha has always faced Ivy with a bland attitude, so bland that she almost ignores her.
Ivy always has an unconcealable disdain for Tebitha, but she is also guarded against Tebitha, as if Tebitha would grab her and slap her at any time.
Even if the two of them would say hello when they met, they were far away from each other, and Ivy would never take the initiative to communicate with Tebitha.
Tabitha always hangs out with Vivian, Icarus and Eve. These four girls are more like sisters. Clark is like the stereotypical younger brother who is always teased by them. Tabitha will also treat the logistics team Those people asked for help.
Ivy mostly accompanies Gray, and they will get along with Ajer, who was sent by Otis to fight on the front line. After confirming that Mu Hua is the inspector general of the Raiders Association, Ivy and Gray looked obviously better when they met Mu Hua. It's a bit cloudy and hard to tell.
And Mu Hua is not trying to get close to Ivy for the time being. Too much is not enough.
Mu Hua has been looking for opportunities to attack Ivy, the kind where a white knife goes in and a red knife comes out.
Unfortunately, she was too close to Gray. Mu Hua couldn't find a chance for a while. He wanted to use Ajer to separate the two, but he was worried about causing trouble. Moreover, there were many adventurers wandering around the town recently. Mu Hua wanted to use Ajer to separate the two. Hua stopped thinking for the time being.
Deman is taking care of things in the hotel. As a hands-off shopkeeper, Mu Hua was originally going to go to the Island of the Abyss to smelt the magic stone sent by Paji. By the way, it was time to leave on Tuesday.
But the small town's arms dealer, Old Morey, suddenly came to the hotel, which surprised Mu Hua. What's more, this old guy actually invited Mu Hua to have a drink in the hotel.
Did this guy have a falling out with old Barron? He even supported Deman's wine business.
“嘿，伙计，难道尤多拉夫人爱上了老巴伦，你想让我帮你揍他一顿么？”来到吧台附近的酒桌旁，穆骅坐在老Morey took a glass of gin with olive juice from his side.
"Haha, all eyes of Eudora are my shadow, Mu, I have some serious things that I want to talk to you about." When old Morey laughed, Mu Hua accidentally discovered that he was actually wearing formal clothes. , and the usual scornfulness on his face seems to be much less severe.
"What's wrong? You make me feel bad when you look like this. What happened?" Old Morey's strange behavior made Mu Hua stop joking.
He can be regarded as the first person Mu Hua made friends with after coming to Loren, and thanks to his introduction, Mu Hua was able to integrate into the town so quickly.
Although the two of them usually joked and made noise, and made some minor jokes from time to time, Mu Hua also regarded him as a friend.
"No, don't worry, I'm fine. I just wanted to ask you, how do you feel about Hobert?" Old Morey waved his hand and asked.
"Hobert? Your son-in-law? What do you think he is doing when I'm fine? Man, if you have anything to say, just tell me." Mu Hua said inexplicably.
Old Morey turned around and looked around. The lobby on the first floor was very spacious. In addition, many residents had recently gone to the courtyard, so there were no people around the two of them.
Old Morey didn't look nervous at all. This action was like gossiping about someone in a bar. It was just a habit.
"Mu, Pete has become more and more outrageous recently." Old Morey said.
"Well, I know. Didn't you say you want to remove him? No problem, I support it." Mu Hua said casually.
Citizens’ rights to vote and be elected are essentially taking off their pants and farting, but knowing how to carry chicken feathers as an arrow and voluntarily ignoring and giving up are not the same thing.
Ever since the Cannes City project was established, the mayor of the town, Pete, has been a little distracted. Recently, many things related to the town have not been communicated to the townspeople. The politicians have not learned much about their skills, but their style has become more and more popular. It was enough, and Mu Hua didn't mind stumbling upon him.
"Yes, we want to remove him, but you also know that from now on we will be the city of Cannes."
"If we really push him down, what if Bridges takes advantage of the situation and sends us another What should we do if we have a mayor or district mayor? Those people are here for Cannes City and they will definitely not be of the same mind as us," Old Morey said.
Bearpig Town originally belonged to Hayman City, which was a city under the jurisdiction of the Earl of Bridges. Now Bearpig Town is under the jurisdiction of Cannes City and is separated from Hayman, but it still belongs to Bree. Under Keith.
"You mean...?" Old Morey's statement is not unfounded. Originally, Bear and Pig Town was located in a remote area, and there was nothing to ask for, so naturally it would not attract the attention of the big men, nor would it attract the attention of the big men. Which politician is willing to go here?
Nowadays, there is a lot of investment in urban construction. Regardless of whether it is speculation or planning, regardless of whether it is dispatched or on your own, there should be many people who want to come here to plant flags.
Local official, local official, you, an outsider, come to be a local official, you say you will wholeheartedly work for the welfare of the local area? What a ghost.
Of course, after the town becomes the city of Cannes, the term "place" will gradually become blurred and the concept will change. Probably only the aboriginal people in small towns are more attached to the original meaning of ‘place’.
If they are not persistent, it doesn't really matter. At most, they can just stop complaining when "outsiders" ride on their heads in their hometown in the future, give up their own land, and shut down their own business. Just go screw someone else's screws.
But obviously, the gang of unscrupulous people in Xiongzhu Town did not have this awareness for the time being. Mu Hua also instantly understood that Old Morey planned to overthrow Pete and then push one of his own to take the position.
"Yes, that's right. What do you think about letting Hobert be the mayor?" Old Morey asked Mu Hua.
"I think...even if I think there is no problem, it can't be done by just squatting here and having a few sips, right?" Mu Hua said with a smile, no wonder Old Morey went to the battle in person, and his feelings were to rival his own son-in-law.
"I have talked to some people in the town about this matter. Alvin, Genna, Dorn and Thelma all support it. Now I will look at you." Old Morey stared at Mu Hua with a pair of eyes. In the old eyes, there is quite a bit of momentum to persuade people to go to Liangshan. Ai Wen and Gena are both big households in the town. They control a large amount of land. Although one is a logger and the other is a farmer and livestock farmer, they have a lot of say in the town.
Including those bosses who open factories and run businesses, no matter how glamorous they are on the surface, no matter how profitable they are, when it comes to matters in a small town, it’s not that they are unwilling to deal with the local bumpkins in the town. They were interfering, but they knew very well that in front of Alvin and Gena, they were not qualified to intervene at all.
Dorn is the 'family' of doctors in the town. In the early years when the town was no one interested in it, the townspeople had to rely on the Dorn family to take care of their problems.
From treating eyes to treating constipation, from treating people to treating animals, Dorn can do it all.
Well, no matter in any world, throughout the ages, there are only two abilities that can last forever, one is to kill people, and the other is to save people.
So Dorn is quite important in the town.
As for Selma, who sells magic materials, she is considered a veteran in the town. She was also the only resident in the town who knew some magic knowledge in the early years and could teach it to the children in the town.
In addition, Old Barron, who has been in charge of the town's "entertainment venue" for many years and has worn the same pants as Old Morey since childhood, has won the support of this group of people, and Old Morey has almost won the support of all the townspeople. support.
But gaining the support of the townspeople does not mean that his son-in-law can become the mayor. After all, they are still a group of unruly people. . .
This is Bear and Pig Town under the rule of the Sorcerous Empire. For the empire, public opinion is very important, but it does not mean that you can do whatever you want.
I don’t need Mu Hua to remind me about this, and it’s impossible for Morey to not understand this.
“What do you want me to do?” Mu Hua asked Old Morey.
"I heard that you have many skeleton relatives?" Old Morey asked.
"Who did you listen to?" Mu Hua was stunned. Everyone in the town knew that he was a necromancer, but he did not summon a large number of skeletons in front of the villagers. The townspeople could not tell whether the skeletons he created were his dependents. .
“I asked about it from Tricia.” Old Morey whispered.
“Tsk~, you actually talked about swaying her?” Mu Hua’s eyelids twitched, this old guy is awesome, he dared to seduce the wandering witch.
"Well, as long as she is still in the town, no other witches will be allowed to open and operate shops in the town in the future." Old Morey said.
"Very good. If Hobert doesn't go up, I'll try my best to persuade Tricia to spare your life." Mu Hua twitched the corner of her mouth.
"Don't talk about this. How many skeleton warriors do you have? Can you make up a hundred?" Old Morey said.
"Who are you looking down on? You have the nerve to use a word like "less than five hundred"? What do you want them for?" Mu Hua curled his lips. He really had a lot of skeleton warriors.
“Hi~~, are they all your dependents?” Old Morey gasped.
"Well, that's not true. Get me a few hundred devil's skin scrolls and I'll sign them all." Mu Hua shook his head.
The devil's skin scroll is very cheap, and the little devil's skin can be used to make it. It's not that Mu Hua can't afford the devil's skin scroll, it's mainly because it's troublesome.
Mu Hua found it troublesome for the "auxiliary products" created by the skeleton warriors to cultivate the skeleton mages, so he just told them not to kill each other, and did not sign a slavery contract with each of them.
"Then how many retinues do you have? I wouldn't dare use them if they weren't retinues." Old Morey rolled his eyes. It wasn't that he couldn't afford the devil's skin scroll, but it was mainly because he didn't believe that Mu Hua could turn those skeletal warriors into Dependents.
"You use it? You...forget it, the family members can probably raise two to three hundred, what on earth are you going to do?" Mu Hua was stunned, then waved his hand and asked.
"Two or three hundred? Well, how about two hundred? You provide two hundred skeleton warriors, and I will equip them with weapons and ammunition."
"I think, let Hobert form it A guard to maintain law and order in our town.”
"And isn't the star patrol meeting about to start soon? Let Hobert take them to show off. He is just a mayor. With such an armed force in his hand, he should be able to earn some money, right?" Old Morey analyzed.
Mu Hua was stunned: "Maintaining law and order? Hobert is not the mayor now. Are you pretending to be a guard?"
"I discussed it with Chief Lolaini , no problem." Old Morey said.
"Old guy, why didn't I know you were so awesome before? But what's the use of your first-level exorcism bombs at the Star Patrol Meeting?" Mu Hua truly admired Old Morey. Hobert's father-in-law was not in vain.
"Level five, level five exorcism bullets. Kunna is willing to cooperate with us. She can provide level five exorcism bullets." Old Morey said proudly.
"..." Mu Hua was silent. Good guy, even Kunna has joined the gang. Even if Peter doesn't step down, he may not be able to hang out in the town anymore. (End of this chapter)
