Chapter 77 - Save Me

"Your Highness, this is the final financial statistics of the store, please have a look."

Seweney glanced at the final financial statistics report of the Seweney Chamber of Commerce held by his chief deacon, sighed softly, took it over, glanced at it, and smiled wryly.

"I didn't expect to earn thousands of gold coins after only opening it for a few months. No wonder those people tried their best to drive Xinfei Chamber of Commerce out."

The chief deacon looked at Sevini with some puzzlement, thinking how could Her Royal Highness mention the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce after seeing this financial report?

Is it true that, as the rumors say, Her Royal Highness is actually close to the president of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, and that's why she has been paying attention to the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce?

"Take out all these thousands of gold coins, buy all the food, and then distribute it to the people in the villages outside Tag City. They suffered from floods some time ago, and the food should be able to help them survive this time. " Sevini said.

"Yes." The head deacon nodded in response, and then praised with a smile: "Your Highness, you are so kind, the people in those villages are not the people of our territory, and you still think about them. Tag If the city lord finds out, he will definitely feel extremely ashamed." "But Ma-chang-feng-wen-xue..." The chief deacon paused, and finally swallowed back the words that had rushed down his throat .

Sevini glanced at him, with a hint of warning in his eyes, and waved his hand: "Okay. You go down and arrange these things."

The chief deacon nodded vigorously. backed out.

I saw the figure of the chief deacon disappearing outside the door. Sevini sighed faintly, and smiled wryly.

Closing the Seweigny Chamber of Commerce was certainly not her intention.

Originally, Seweini planned to use his own efforts to make the Seweini Chamber of Commerce a window for the forced-out Magic Machinery Chamber of Commerce headed by Xinfei Chamber of Commerce to continue to maintain contact with the Lampari Kingdom, so as to continue to maintain this relationship.

But just some time ago, Eric took the initiative to summon her and had a long talk with her.

During the conversation, Eric made it clear to Seweney that she hoped she would not rashly interfere in the kingdom's internal affairs. Because it would make him, the king, very difficult.

Although Sevini proposed that the Magic Industry Management Agency unite the ten chambers of commerce representing the interests of a group of nobles in the kingdom, and squeeze out the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce and other chambers of commerce, which has already had a very bad impact on the Lampari Kingdom. Just trying to recover some of the damage as best I can. However, Eric also said that he is very clear about the current situation in the kingdom, and he is working hard to control the situation.

Eric hinted to Seweney. Now he is gradually regaining the real power from the group of nobles headed by Duke Stark, trying to completely control the entire Lampari Kingdom. So I hope that Sevini would better not make any moves during this period, so as not to disrupt his arrangements.

Although Sevini didn't fully agree with Eric's ideas, she thought that Eric was sitting on the throne after all. As Eric's own sister, she should of course support him vigorously, so in the end she still Convinced by Eric.

Afterwards, Seweney stopped all the business of the Seweney Chamber of Commerce, and gradually closed all the shops of the Seweney Chamber of Commerce in the Lampari Kingdom. chamber of commerce.

So far, Seweney's efforts through the Seweney Chamber of Commerce have all been in vain.

Compared with before the establishment of the Seweigny Chamber of Commerce, the current Lampari Kingdom is firmly controlled by those ten chambers of commerce, or by those great nobles.

In Sevigny's view, the situation in the kingdom could only get worse.

This naturally filled Sevini with a sense of frustration.

Originally, she wanted to change the situation of the entire kingdom with her own power, but she didn't expect to die halfway after she just started to move.

Thinking of Xu Yi's "naive" evaluation of her behavior before, Sevini couldn't help but smiled bitterly again.

"I hope Eric can carry out his plan smoothly and regain control of the kingdom step by step." Seweini sighed softly, shook his head, and put the question aside.

Because of the closure of the Seweney Chamber of Commerce, many refugees who had been arranged by Seweney to work in the Seweney Chamber of Commerce needed a new place to go.

Of course, Seweni would not send them back to their original territory and continue to be exploited by those lords.

But continuing to let them stay in their own territory also violates the rules among the nobles, and it is easy to make the entire royal family the target of accusations, making Eric even more passive.

So Seweini thought about it, and found that he could only ask Xu Yi for help again.

Fortunately, Xu Yi was basically responsive to Seweini's requests. After receiving Seweini's request, without saying a word, he agreed to help her arrange these refugees.

In addition to the refugees who have been displaced into Seweney's territory one after another during this period, the total number of refugees who have fled from other places in Seweney's territory now exceeds a full two thousand.

Even the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce had a hard time absorbing so many people at once, so Xu Yi united with dozens of other chambers of commerce on the Black Rice Wasteland to accept all these refugees.

However, most of these refugees had worked for a period of time in the magic machinery factories run by the noble lords in the territory, and had a certain level of skills, so it was relatively easy to integrate into these chambers of commerce.

The problem that Seweni needs to consider now is how to get a suitable identity for these refugees.

Although many refugees are exiled as a whole, some refugees still have relatives and friends in their hometowns. They are likely to return to the Lampari Kingdom in the future. If they are all sent out now. If you think about it again. But he lost his legal status in the Kingdom of Lampari.

This question is not too difficult for Seweini. In her capacity, it is not a problem to ask the Civil Affairs Department of the Kingdom Council to obtain the status of some legal kingdom citizens.

The only problem is that this amount is a bit too much.

When they were considering whether they should be divided into several batches to solve this problem, the door that was closed by the chief deacon just before leaving was suddenly pushed open.

Sevini looked up in astonishment, only to find that the head deacon had gone and returned, and there was another person beside him.

This person seemed to be weak all over, and he barely stood up with the support of the chief deacon, and his clothes were in a mess. His hair was even more disheveled, and he looked no different from those refugees who had fled to Seweney's private land.

But if you look carefully, you can still see that this person is fundamentally different from those refugees.

Although the clothes this man was wearing were messy and tattered, they were obviously made of very high-end fabrics, the workmanship was extremely fine, and the style was quite novel. It was impossible for ordinary refugees to wear clothes.

Moreover, he has a slender figure, and although most of his exposed skin is covered by dust and blood, it can still be seen that he is very fair and delicate, no matter how you look at it, he is used to rough work. The stocky, rough and dark-skinned refugees were completely different.

"Your Highness." The chief deacon called Seweini, and he was about to help the man to sit down on the seat beside him.

Sevigny was wondering who this man was. Why did the chief deacon seem to know him very well, and when he brought him here directly, the man seemed to have heard the chief deacon's voice, and suddenly raised his head.

His eyes collided with Sevini. Sevini just showed a surprised expression, but the man did not know where the strength suddenly came from. He broke free from the support of the chief deacon and threw himself directly in front of Sevini, knelt down with a plop, and He hugged Seweini's calf and cried loudly.

"His Royal Highness! Help me! Help me! Our whole family... was killed by those damned guys... I was almost... nearly killed too... Help me..."

Sevini was taken aback, and quickly possessed him to help him up, staring at his dirty face that was covered in mud but now was washed out with tears, and confirmed that he was not mistaken just now, this person Indeed, it was Jarvan, the youngest son of Steward Delmar.

Because the head of Dema had served Lampari XIII personally when Seweini was still very young, and his youngest son Jiawen happened to be about the same age as Seweney, so the two had been playmates together since childhood, Seweney and Jiawen They are quite familiar.

Although the relationship between the two became weaker due to the difference in status after they grew up, they still often meet each other.

Last year, at the funeral of Chief Dema, Seweini attended in person, chatted with Jiawen for a while, and comforted him to live a good life.

At that time, although Jiawen seemed a little depressed because his father had just passed away, he was still a standard image of a noble son.

But he didn't expect that a year later, he would become so downcast now.

What surprised Seweini even more was what he said.

"What did you say? Your whole family... was killed?" Seweini looked at Jiawen in shock. "You mean being killed? Who has the guts to kill your family?"

Jiawen shook his head tremblingly: "I...I don't know...I was sleeping soundly, but I was suddenly woken up, and then I saw a group of people rushing into the house, killing my family members, I...I He escaped after being stuffed into a secret passage by a servant..."

Seeing Jiawen's unclear words, Seweini couldn't help frowning.

"Have you no idea?"

Jiawen shook his head blankly: "I don't know... I don't know anything... no! There should be clues here! My father told me before he died, if anything happens to the family, let me find you , give these things to you."

Jiawen fumbled in his arms and found a small package wrapped in thick kraft paper.

The outside of the kraft paper was covered in sweat and blood, which looked dirty, but Seweini snatched it from Jiawen without any scruples.

There must be something strange about Chief Dema's intentionally addressing these words to Jiawen's family before he died.

Opening the kraft paper, I found that it contained a sealed letter, a bound booklet, and a small bottle, which contained half a bottle of an unknown liquid with a hint of purple.

Sevini picked up the vial and looked at it, but couldn't see what was going on, so he put it aside, thought for a while, and opened the seal of the envelope.

After opening the letter and only looking at it, Sevini's eyes suddenly shrank.
