Chapter 391 Agent
Bang! !
There was another gunshot.
A royal guard was shot in the chest and fell to the ground.
Pap-tat-tat.
Amidst the dense and rapid footsteps, a large number of guards surrounded and protected the old king Lewan, Gilan and the members of the envoy.
Half of them are armed with swords and shields, and the other half are equipped with older-style firearms.
Bang! !
The gunfire rang out again.
With a ding, a guard in front of Jilan was shaken, and the shield in his hand was penetrated.
Fortunately, the bullet deflected and left a spark on the ground.
"Protect Your Majesty and get out of here!"
The guard captain roared.
Immediately afterwards, Ji Lan and others were surrounded and quickly left the open space of the factory park and headed outside.
The sound of huge gunshots continued one after another.
It seemed that the assassin hiding in the dark was unwilling to let them go.
However, after the first shot failed, the royal guards had already reacted and protected the old king, Jilan and others very well. Even if the bullets came, at most they only penetrated the shields of the guards. , unable to hurt important people at all.
“Damn it!”
On the rooftop of a high-rise building in the corner of the factory park, a dark man with an unshaven beard and a turban cursed.
He was still wearing the gray uniform of the factory and looked like an honest and honest skilled worker.
But his movements while kneeling by the guardrail were very sophisticated. He held a wooden sniper rifle in his hand and observed through the scope that the imperial envoys were gradually moving away.
The man knew that the opportunity for assassination had been missed, so he could only get up secretly. After disassembling the butt of the sniper rifle, he stuffed it into the suitcase together with the gun body.
Immediately, I grabbed my suitcase and fled quickly.
He took three steps from the corridor, then two, and ran down the stairs. His mind could not help but flash back to the scene just now.
"That Imperial man... is too scary!"
The man was timid and sweating on his forehead.
As one of the best snipers in the revolutionary army, he is extremely confident in his marksmanship.
But the sniper shot that was sure to kill just now was caught by the opponent's bare hands... This kind of bizarre thing would have been a joke to him in the past.
But after seeing it with his own eyes, his cognition seemed to have been smashed crazily by an invisible sledgehammer. At this moment, it became extremely messy and even fragmented.
…
…
A moment later.
Under layers of protection, the convoy returned to the Dashiwal Palace smoothly.
Except for forcing a smile when talking to Gilan, the old king Lewan had a gloomy face the whole time.
The anger of the attack, coupled with the fear that the assassination might become a major diplomatic incident, made him frightened and angry.
After returning to the palace, the first thing Levan did was to send a large number of men to hunt down the mysterious assassin in the factory. At the same time, news of the attack on the Imperial Foreign Minister in Darsilval was temporarily blocked.
Jilan and the members of the envoy settled in the palace guest room, and everyone's expressions were not very good.
"Sir, are you okay?"
Female secretary Lenis and assistant Moody came forward together and asked Gillan cautiously.
Just now, they didn't notice the assassination for the first time, and didn't react until they heard the gunshot.
At this moment, everyone just felt scared.
If something unexpected happens to Chief Gilan in Fosaka, it will be a major loss to both the empire and Fosaka.
Moreover, the subsequent development will also have a serious butterfly effect...
Forsaka, who was about to take sides, will not only be unable to receive economic and technical assistance, but may also suffer To the reckoning of the Empire!
As for the members of the accompanying envoys, most of them will be punished and dismissed from their posts after returning to the country!
Fortunately, Chief Gilan shook his head and said it was okay.
The other envoys did not see clearly at the time, but Lenis and Moody witnessed the scene of the chief catching the sniper bullet with his bare hands.
Although they know that the chief has another identity, he is the head of the Special Operations Team 2 of the mysterious investigation committee, and he possesses mysterious and powerful personal force.
But it’s one thing to know, and another to see it with your own eyes. Until now, my heart is still shocked.
"Sir, fortunately you are okay..."
Lenis took a long breath, then her face turned cold, and she said in a deep voice:
“But the Fosaka royal family must give you an explanation for this matter. Otherwise, we represent the face of the empire, and we will never I won’t let it go.”
“Yeah.” Ji Lan smiled and waved his hand. "But don't be too angry. This is not the fault of the Fosaka royal family. Everything in the world has two sides, and my assassination is not simply a bad thing... Lewan is not a fool. I believe he will reconsider the conditions I proposed."
"Perhaps, I should also thank the assassin?"
Lenis and Moody were startled when they saw the smile on their officer's face. It was as if the person who had been sniped just now was not him at all.
What impressed them even more was that the chief looked at the problem from a completely different perspective than they did... He actually believed that the appearance of the assassin would make Fosaka's party right at fault and compromise in the negotiation.
Of course, all this stems from Chief Gilan’s extremely powerful confidence and strength. If not, the outcome would have been decided the moment the assassin pulled the trigger.
Crack, snap, snap.
Soon, the old king, wearing a white robe, walked quickly into the huge guest room hall.
Behind him, many members of the royal family followed.
Their expressions were solemn, even mixed with a hint of fear.
The Imperial Foreign Minister was assassinated in Fosaka. If this matter is not handled well, it will be a disaster for them!
They cannot bear the anger of the empire!
"Mr. Gillan." Lewan strode to the purple-eyed young man, caressing his chest apologetically and bowing. His old wrinkled face looked quite haggard.
"I have sent someone to capture the assassin. After some interrogation, I learned that this person is a member of the revolutionary army, disguised as a worker and lurking in the factory..."
"Originally, his target was me, but the arrival of you and the envoys made the revolutionary army change its mind, so he received the order to assassinate you."
"Fortunately, you are safe, otherwise..."
The old king Lewan looked ugly.
Gilan looked calm and did not speak.
Before setting off, he received a piece of information from the white gull Aleviya during the gathering in his dream.
"White Pigeon Tower" has been active recently. Except for the two members of "Sonnet" who have been killed by him, the fifth pigeon and the ninth pigeon, all the other twelve people have been dispatched and lurked in various small neutral countries. Provoking war and trying to usurp political power.
At present, whether it is the disputes between the western countries or the revolutionary army within the Fosaka Kingdom, Gilan has doubts about it.
'Since the assassin is from the Revolutionary Army, there might be a shadow of the "White Dove Tower" behind him...'
Jilan narrowed his eyes and thought to himself. 'If this is the case, then the reason for assassinating me is very simple...mostly to sabotage this diplomatic event and prevent Fosaka from siding with the empire. ’
Seeing the indifferent expression on his face, the old king Lewan couldn't help but feel a thump in his heart.
He knew he was in the wrong, and because of his respect for the Bremen Empire, he mistakenly thought that the purple-eyed young man in front of him was dissatisfied with the Fosaka royal family.
So he gritted his teeth and said solemnly:
"Mr. Gillan, please rest assured that the assassin will be publicly executed in the Palace Square tomorrow morning. As for the revolutionary army, I also sent I asked Deputy Commander Kasmu to lead a crusade..."
Hearing this, Jilan waved his hand and interrupted:
"I don't care how to deal with that assassin. And if the revolutionary army had been defeated so easily, the situation in Fosaka would not have dragged on to this day."
He smiled lightly.
“Your Majesty Lewan, I originally had a good impression of Fosaka, but I didn’t expect such a thing to happen.”
“Of course, I also know that this is not your royal family. I wish...but now that it has happened, I cannot turn a blind eye."
"I will not watch the execution tomorrow...I will return with the envoy tonight."
< br>
After hearing what he said, the old king's expression changed.
Even the royal family members behind him mostly turned pale.
They all heard Gillan’s subtext.
The foreign minister from the empire was very dissatisfied because of the assassination. The original cooperation between the two countries seems to be no longer planned to proceed.
And, after the envoys return, they will definitely inform the empire of what happened here. By then, there may be liquidation and sanctions waiting for Fossaka.
"Lord Jilan, please think again."
At this time, a woman from the Fosaka royal family said with a hint of pleading in her tone.
"Yes, Mr. Foreign Minister. We promise that we will never let this happen again."
The rest of the royal family begged for mercy.
However, everyone in the envoy group had expressionless faces. Lenis and Moody both sneered.
The harmonious scene where the two parties had a pleasant conversation at the dinner table seemed to be just an illusion.
"Mr. Gillan, I am willing to accept the conditions you proposed before."
At this time, the old king Lewan gritted his teeth and said in a deep voice.
"Not enough..." Ji Lan said lightly.
Lie Wanyi was stunned.
He took a deep breath and asked:
"If you have any requests, please tell me."
Everyone on the other side looked at the purple-eyed young man, not daring to breathe, and showing nervousness on their faces. color.
Jilan pretended to think, and slowly said:
"It's not a request... but a mutually beneficial suggestion. Since Fosaka's industrial level has just started, I will make the decision for you. Attract investment and help you build more factories and roads.”
When the royal family members heard this, they looked at each other.
Is there such a good thing?
The old king Lewan said in a deep voice:
"Mr. Gilan, what are your conditions?"
Gilan took a deep look at the old man.
"It's very simple. The nine largest business groups in Fosaka must unconditionally obey the empire's instructions and become the empire's business agents in Fosaka."
"The nine major groups..."
The old king frowned slightly.
The rest of the royal family discussed in low voices.
This condition is actually not harsh. After all, it does not have a big impact on their royal family.
It's just that they are not sure what the deep meaning of Foreign Minister Gilan or the empire behind him is.
“The empire has many light and heavy industrial products, which are not available in Fosaka... As the saying goes, rare things are valuable, and black market merchants in the western countries use the cross-border trade through Bickerburg. The border train frequently travels to and from the border of the empire, just to purchase goods from there and then sell them at high prices in the western countries. "
Jilan said calmly.
“But if the nine Fosaka Groups become authorized agents of the empire, then industrial products unique to various fields of the empire will be circulated in the Kingdom of Fosaka in a short time.”
“This Not only can it bring more economy, jobs and convenience to the people of Fosaka, it can even make Fosaka the second Fort Bic. ”
"In this process, the nine major groups can use the wealth earned to support Fosaka and invest more funds in construction..."
After Gilan's explanation, the royal family members were quite happy For heartbeat.
Even the old king Lewan basically agreed with this suggestion in his heart. But he was cautious, so he didn't rush to agree.
"Mr. Gillan, all nine major groups have become agents of the empire. Isn't it too much..."
The old king frowned.
He was worried that the young foreign minister might misunderstand him. After a few words, he quickly added:
"I am not questioning your good intentions, but this is not conducive to competition. I propose to only recruit three agents and have a contract time limit. How about letting the nine major groups and even emerging business groups join in the competition for each agency quota in one year or two years?"
Gilan laughed.
Actually, the agency group's suggestion was just a temporary idea on his part, and his deeper intention was just to make it easier to find the whereabouts of "The Legend of Invincible".
Although Lewan is old, his mind is still clear and wise. His proposal was indeed a better solution, and Gillan did not refuse.
"Well, that's okay." Jilan nodded. "But I won't stay in Fosaka for too long. I hope to finalize the specific groups for the three agent quotas before leaving."
"Please rest assured." The old king said quickly. "In the next two days, I will convene the ministers to discuss the specific plan and issue a notice to the nine major groups. After their leaders come to Daxiwal, you will have full authority to decide the quota."
"Very good. ." Jilan smiled and nodded.
Seeing his smile, Li Wan and all the royal family members also breathed a sigh of relief.
At the same time, I am extremely excited about the results.
…
…
Two days later.
An important news coming out from the royal city of Daxiwal was gradually known to the heads of the nine major groups across the kingdom.
Hearing that the Bremen Empire will choose three business agent groups in Fosaka to be responsible for the production, transportation and sales of the empire's industrial products, this made the big businessmen of Fosaka unable to sleep with excitement.
In the past, a considerable number of black market brokers who came in and out of the border to resell empire products belonged to the nine major groups.
However, although the benefits of this method are very high, it is also relatively cumbersome and extremely risky. In addition, the cycle is too long and the volume of goods is small, etc., and it cannot become the majority of the group's revenue.
But now, here comes the opportunity to sell empire products openly without worrying about quantity issues!
An opportunity to embrace the Bremen Empire!
A chance to rise!
The arrival of the imperial foreign minister and the envoys seems to be a ray of light for these big businessmen!
Suddenly, the top executives of the nine major groups took action in unison. In order to compete for those precious three places, they racked their brains and discussed all night long.
In particular, he conducted careful research on the Imperial Foreign Minister Gilan Iros, just to gain the other party's approval...
