Cosma Empire

v2 Chapter 697: No light rain in the morning

"Otto is back?" Magus bent over and took out today's newspaper from the hound's mouth. He asked while wearing glasses.

Every day between 6:30 am and 8:30 am is the easiest time period for Magus. There are no official tasks that can never be completed to bother him. There is no need for mediation by various departments to rid the skin, let alone You need to face the distressing diplomatic note application from the diplomat. He could sit in the yard of his villa, make a cup of scented tea, and ask his wife to make a pancake for him, while reading the newspaper and interacting with Bick.

Bick is his dog, an old dog, already eleven years old. Dogs have a short life span, at most thirteen or four years, and those who live a little longer than 20 years. This dog called Bick has entered the life of an elderly dog. Its slender kiss fur has loosened, and even the teeth under his lips have begun to loosen. When he was young, he was a great guy and won great honors for Magus in many hunting competitions.

Beek is a purebred Auxerre. It is powerful and fast, and has great patience and bite. Generally speaking, an Auxerre can deal with small beasts under 50 pounds. Even if it is more than 50 pounds of prey, three or five Auxerre can complete the hunt. This kind of hunting dog, especially the pure-blooded hound, is expensive, ranging from five hundred to five thousand. The hound called Bicker, who was raised by Magus, has served the Magus family for at least three hundred years ...

Yes, since its ancestors, its family has been serving the Magus family, and it has multiplied to this day, and has a history of more than 300 years.

Bick walked away slowly from Magus' side, and stopped only less than ten meters away from him. He sniffed the leather shoes that looked a little familiar with his nose, and lazily fell on the lawn to bask in the sun. It recognizes this smell and often appears here, so it doesn't reveal any offensive behavior.

Barr glanced down at the old dog at his feet and walked towards Magus. The weather was getting warmer and warmer, and people took off their thick coats and walked out of the cold winter. Everyone was lazy like animals. If you can read a book in the sun, taste some delicious snacks, sleep with your eyes closed and sleep in the sun, it must be the most comfortable thing.

He unbuttoned the two buttons of his clothes, sat on the chair beside Magus, and took a pizza from Magus and took a bite. "He came back at midnight yesterday, and I let him take a rest and wait for nine o'clock. After that, go to the opposite side to report. "

At this time, more than half a month has passed since Otto went to the west. He returned after dealing with the matter there. It seems that everything on the west side ends at some unknown and ignored time. And abruptly ceased. After handling the resettlement of the new immigrants, Otto returned immediately. He could not pry more useful things out of Mennon's mouth, unless he let Mennon open his mouth by threatening and persecution.

But in that case, even if Mennon speaks, these people may not believe that what he said is true, and they have to verify it repeatedly. If Mennon added one or two people to the list of real people who he wanted to kill but not the Scarlet Dawn, the official would be the knife in his hand. Although this will not have a negative impact on the cabinet, it will actually have any negative impact on this empire. After all, there have been deaths caused by robberies or burglaries. People will more or less feel that there is no official publicity for law and order so good.

But whether it's Magus or Otto, they don't want to be disgusted by Mennonite, so they wait a little and wait patiently for Mennonnon to send the entire list by themselves.

The reason the Empire hasn't had much clue about Scarlet Dawn in these 27 years is because this tissue is neurological. They are almost completely different from those famous people or organizations like Grand Theft Auto in the same period. Those organizations may be for fame, for wealth, or for a career. These people have a clear purpose, each time they hurt the nobles to plunder the place is to strengthen themselves and make themselves stronger.

After repeating this many times, I tried to have enough power to confront a small area, and then I wanted to change the whole empire.

But the Scarlet Dawn is different. These people are all neurotic. Obtaining wealth is just an incident when they assassinate the aristocracy. They will not assassinate the aristocracy exclusively for wealth, and some of the wealth they will get will not be given to the poor. Most of them are actually in their hands. Nor were they assassinating the nobles for their fame. They were not picky about the targets they had started, nor were there any rules. Generally speaking, wherever they went, they would assassinate the local nobles.

They also did not strengthen their own strength. At the beginning, there were almost forty or fifty people, and the ambush, the last large-scale activity of Scarlet Dawn, was also fifty or sixty people, or a little more. They didn't care how much power they had in their hands, even if they had assassinated the nobles to instigate a slave uprising in the territory, it seemed as if they had done it smoothly, not intentionally.

Therefore, this group of people is a group of neuropathy, not for money, not for name, it seems that they simply like to assassinate nobles. This kind of neurotic-like style made the nobles and the royal family helpless at the time. There was no regularity and purpose here to kill one where to kill one. Many traps were arranged and the other party had already run to the other half of the empire.

The only flaw they left was Memnon.

Memnon was an Ogdin, a treacherous horse dealer active in the middle of the empire. He had much more information and information about Memnon than anyone in Scarlet Dawn. For example, he often buys some sick horses and then uses some botanicals to stimulate the active state of these sick horses, make them look very healthy, and then sell them to others to make a fortune. In past archives, there were more than 70 horse trading fraud cases related to the farmer.

So when Mennon took the initiative to stand on the table, the Empire was paying attention to him and his people. The empire's intelligence agencies believe that there must be a lot of **** dawn men under Mennon, but it is not clear who is and who is not. Without the cooperation of the farmers, those who were definitely said that they were not, those who were certainly said that they were not. When the whole family of Walter was killed, he did not admit that he was a member of Scarlet Dawn. It can be seen that these people are all neurotic.

Originally, Magus' thought was that since Du Lin wanted to go to the west, he gave him away and asked him to fight with Mennon. From the perspective of Magus, he could see that Mennon was definitely not his opponent. After he was ousted by Du Lin, he might be ashamed and angry, and he would post a black post to Du Lin. As long as he does, Magus' plan will succeed. What is unthinkable is that without Du Lin's hands, Mennon took the initiative to cut off the relationship with the Scarlet Dawn and devoted himself to the New Party camp, which was completely beyond the expectation of Magus.

But this is also good. A "self" is always better in the west than Du Lin chaos in the west. He originally planned to use Du Lin to deal with the restriction of the Mennonite Party. The party is now growing, and now it is necessary to use Mennonite and purer advancement. The party, to restrict the expansion of Du Lin.

Of course, he doesn't think how long the farmer can last. For a maximum of one or two years, he will almost be stepped down by Du Lin. During the turmoil in the west, Magus's eyes have been paying attention to the situation in the west. When problems occurred in the Mennonite and their freedom was restricted, almost all the big capitalists did not take the initiative to help the Mennonite siege, not to mention their powerful forces and Did the financial resources really allow the farmers to escape this accident, but they did not even ask.

Mennon, the most important partner of the Western capitalists, their silence made Magus think of Dulin, and Dulin and these people must have agreed on the conditions, so they chose to watch the show.

In the current situation of Memnon, if he is not able to pull these capitalists back to his own camp, he will soon be finished.

Because of the "three guarantees policy" that he got, it also included that he was directly out of relationship with Scarlet Liming.

Magus considered that if he was the leader of Scarlet Dawn, what he has to do now is to wipe out a person who knows most of the inside story, especially if he has betrayed, let alone him. Survive. Magus has reason to believe that Mennon did not give all the lists, and he must still have a more important list in his hand, which was used as a bargaining chip to negotiate conditions with the New Party.

To be honest, he is stupid.

Many things between Magus' minds and telegrams were over in a matter of seconds ~ lightnovelpub.net ~ He opened the newspaper, glanced at the headline, shook his head slightly, and put the newspaper in On the table.

His old friend Barr took a newspaper and glanced at it, saying that United Construction is expected to completely penetrate the western mountains of Otis at the end of April and achieve complete east-west traffic. Otis will usher in a new round of development. At the bottom of the article, there is a sub-heading, which states that United Construction has won three major projects, including the construction of the tallest building in the Empire in cooperation with the Imperial College of Engineering in the southern city of the Empire, and two total lengths of not less than one Thousand kilometers of railway.

"I don't like federal people. They used to be, they are now, and they will be." Barr threw the newspaper back on the table and looked at Magus angrily. "You should submit a bill prohibiting federal merchants from participating in the important parts of the Empire. engineering."

Magus chuckled, "I know you're talking angry, we should recognize the reality. Maybe we could play our own, but now the relationship between countries is getting closer and closer. More and more, isolation will only make us eliminated. Today is a federal businessman, and tomorrow may be a businessman of other countries, these people may become a force that cannot be ignored in the empire. "

"We don't have the right to refuse, we can't resist, then try to lead it!"
