Chapter 193 Controversy! Sheriff's Attribution
Remember for a second
Three days later, Darkmoon City held a highly anticipated ad hoc meeting. Mingjia Biquge to see the latest chapter//
In the conference room, the eldest princess Shia sat in the center seat, with old Gauss standing behind, and on both sides of the round table were Joseph, Allen, Chen Rui, Tim, the old Ford of the Sever family, and the patriarch of the Mellon family. Lombardo... At the meeting, Shia first routinely summed up the situation of the Dark Moon in the recent period, including the appearance of the royal family and the victory of Xilang Mountain. Afterwards, Old Ford was the first to stand up and attack, questioning Joseph who bought Tim's cronies two years ago and lured Tim to the lower level of the main mine to assassinate him.
Joseph was well prepared for this. He denied it and asked Old Ford to show strong evidence. Otherwise, this inference alone would not be convincing. If Old Ford could not hold the evidence, he would ask the eldest princess to make a fair judgment and give Old Ford a slander. Financial Officer's Punishment.
After some chatter, the matter was settled under Shia's mediation, and then the topic shifted to the issue of the financial officer candidate.
According to the practice of a three-year term, the treasurer and the sheriff should be re-elected at the beginning of the year, but because Joseph and Allen were in unison at the time and could not be shaken, Shia deliberately delayed the election with privileges and extended the two term of office. On the surface, it is a compliment to the two, but in fact it is waiting for a more suitable opportunity. Until today, this foreshadowing has no use.
Joseph did not speak. The speaker was Lombardo, the patriarch of the Mellon family. Lombardo exemplified and expounded the good development momentum of the Darkmoon Territory's economy from various aspects. Thanks to Joseph's efforts, Lombardo deliberately pointed out that, thanks to Joseph's vigorous efforts, the Chiyou Territory will continue to provide a large amount of food aid to the Dark Moon. For this alone, Joseph's re-election as financial officer will do his part. As soon as the words came out. The small families on Joseph's side agreed.
Joseph still kept a smile, these words were spoken by Lombardo, and the effect was much better than his boasting, especially the food was the weakness of the Dark Moon. As long as this was grasped, the position of the treasurer would be as stable as a rock.
Old Ford was still unwilling to give in, claiming that now the western passage has been opened, it does not have to rely on Chiyou's support. If the Darkmoon family works together, the food crisis in Darkmoon will definitely be alleviated.
At this time, Joseph defeated Old Ford's last stubborn resistance with one word. As long as he can be re-elected, Chiyou's food aid to Dark Moon will be increased by another 30% from next month.
The food problem has plagued Dark Moon for thousands of years. Although Old Ford's words seem reasonable, everyone understands that the business road cannot be established in a day or two. Moreover, the situation in the west is not stable, and no one can guarantee whether it can be established. become an effective solution to food. At present, we must rely on the support of Chiyou Territory. If the assistance can be increased by 30%, it will greatly alleviate the biggest problem of the increasing shortage of food in the Dark Moon. [Penquge High-Quality Update] In this way, Dark Moon is even more inseparable from Chiyou's "assistance".
Shia finally made the decision and agreed to Joseph's re-election as financial officer. In fact, under the miraculous effect of Chen Rui's energy dust, the secret food base was successfully established, and a large amount of food was stored, and Dark Moon was already self-sufficient. But it is still a time of forbearance, and it is not appropriate to reveal his trump card. Since Joseph is willing to give 30% more food in his own way, why is he unhappy to accept it?
Without waiting for Old Ford to speak, Joseph directly shifted the topic to the other party's real target, the sheriff, praised Allen's contribution to Darkmoon over the years, and proposed to let Allen be re-elected.
However, Old Ford's words immediately changed the face of the elated Allen. Old Ford pointed out Allen's mediocrity and incompetence. His personal strength was low, despicable and cowardly. Cheating in the competition with Reika is known to everyone, and it is impossible to convince the public. Not only that, as a sheriff, Allen lacks the most basic commanding ability, and the Dark Moon garrison is distracted, neglected in training, and even low in combat power, which is not good for repeatedly destroying thieves in the west.
On the other hand, Tim of the Cypher family is completely different. After struggling for two years in the danger of underground monsters, he escaped from death, and his personal strength has reached the level of a high-level demon. After escaping from the underground, he rescued Chen Rui, the incumbent mining officer, offered a miraculous plan, successfully planned a surprise attack on the thieves group by the Praetorian Guards, and took the lead in poisoning the leader of the thieves group, and finally became the key to eliminating the thieves and clearing the west of the dark moon. Character, the prestige in the dark moon is far better than Alan, and it is the best candidate for the sheriff.
When it came to rescuing Chen Rui, who was in the current mining palace, Tim glanced at Chen Rui, and saw the master cooperatively cast a grateful look, and he was speechless for a while.
These remarks did not have the face of Allen or even the Cuaron family. Seeing that the situation was not right, Joseph nominated Lombardo, the patriarch of the Mellon family, to serve as the position. Allen's face became even more gloomy.
Old Ford and Lombardo are old enemies, and each other's pigtails are a big one, and there is no room for them to attack each other. If it wasn't for the eldest princess, I'm afraid they would have already started.
The so-called upper-class aristocrats, after tearing off their noble coat, turned upside down and looked no different from the hawkers in the vegetable market.
Joseph's eyes fell on Shia's face, Shia was expressionless, just staring at Tim, showing a slight movement. Based on the current situation analysis, Allen is definitely not re-elected. It is such a good opportunity to destroy the bandits in the west. Shia finally waited for it. candidate. Lombardo and Old Ford are considered to be mutually counteracting forces, and Lombardo is not really a force under Joseph's command. Rather than letting Tim, a confidant, control the military power of Darkmoon, it is better to settle for the next best thing and use "Agu". "Fighting" strategy... that ally whose relationship was still stable for the time being,
There must be further conspiracy, puppet? control? or something else? In any case, for him Joseph, it was all good and harmless.
"Everyone, please listen to me." Joseph's words used a faint force to suppress the voices of old Ford and Lombardo.
Everyone's eyes were focused, and Joseph sighed and said, "I remembered and almost forgot one of the most important things."
After speaking, Joseph's eyes fell on Chen Rui, who had been silent: "You all remember when I recommended Chen Rui to be the new mining officer at the last quarterly meeting, I once said that if Xilang Hill's problem is resolved, then I will further recommend him as sheriff."
As soon as these words came out, everyone suddenly remembered that there was indeed such a thing, and they all showed strange colors: such a powerless human being is actually qualified to hold military power?
"I remember that at that time, I signed a document with our Mine Officer, and Her Royal Highness Princess Eldest also acted as an arbitrator. The document is in triplicate, and I still keep it." Joseph said, from the space ring He took out a document and floated in front of everyone one by one under the control of power. Sure enough, in addition to the signatures of Chen Rui and Joseph, there was also the magical signature of Shia himself. "
When Chen Rui heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up. This time, it was Tim's turn to show a wicked look. Joseph saw it in his eyes and smiled even more. He got up and gave Shia a salute, and said seriously:
"Now that the problem of Mount Xilang has been resolved, it's time for me to fulfill my promise... Your Highness Shia, I now officially recommend Chen Rui, the current mining officer, as the sheriff."
The old Ford of the Saifu family did not expect such a change, and immediately jumped out to oppose it, indicating that Chen Rui was cowardly and incompetent, and the settlement of the Xilang Mountain problem had nothing to do with it. How could he steal Tim's victory?
Tim was ashamed when he heard this. In fact, Chen Rui resolved both the crisis in Xilang Mountain and the underground world. After all, he was a hero who was the real plagiarist.
Everything is under the master's control, including Joseph's "support". Although Tim is self-confident and capable, he is completely convinced by the master.
As expected, the Mellon family quickly fell to Chen Rui's side under Joseph's signal, and the situation became weird.
Shia looked at the document she signed with her own hands, and her eyes became complicated.
Joseph sneered secretly: Shia has always kept her word, and her prestige is extremely high. If she wants to break her promise, her prestige will definitely decline. As for Chen Rui, it was entirely at the right time for the meeting. It was only because of him and the Mellon family that he was qualified to compete with the Saifu family at the meeting. Even if a guy with no strength or background took the position of sheriff, he would only be better than Allen. Do worse.
Moreover, Agulie will vigorously "support" Chen Rui, the representative of the new force, and with the scheming of the Beeshi royal family, it will definitely cause an inevitable split on the originally united Shia side.
Shia seemed to sigh and stood up, the quarrel suddenly stopped, and all eyes fell on the Lord of the Dark Moon.
Shia said indifferently: "Since there is a document first, then Chen Rui, a mining officer, will serve as the sheriff of Darkmoon City. After two years of disappearance, Tim made a great contribution and temporarily returned to Xilang Mountain to serve as a mining officer and concurrently serve as the mining officer. The captain of the West Road Defence Force is responsible for the development of the mine and the defense of the west of the Dark Moon. The maximum number of the defense team is one third of that of the Janissaries, and there will be other awards later."
Old Ford wanted to say something, but in the end he didn't say it.
The most angry was Allen. As soon as Shia announced the meeting, he got up and left immediately. Before leaving, he looked at Joseph and Chen Rui and others, his eyes were full of resentment.
The biggest loser this time is undoubtedly the former sheriff.
Old Ford brought Tim over and congratulated Chen Rui. His words were full of cynicism and satire, which meant that human beings "repay revenge for kindness".
Everyone knows that sheriffs are not so easy to be, and Chen Rui is just a powerless human, especially when he offends an old-fashioned force like the Saifu family.
Joseph came over with a smile: "Congratulations, Your Excellency Chen Rui. There will be more aspects of our cooperation in the future."
"Thank you for your recommendation." The human being who dramatically ascended the throne of the sheriff seemed a little helpless, his excitement was beyond words, he suddenly felt the cold breath behind him, turned back to meet Shia's cold eyes, and suddenly shivered, no Dare to talk to Joseph more.
Shia's icy gaze fell on Joseph's face, and Joseph smiled as before, bowed slightly, and turned away.
