Chapter 722: Alliance
Chapter 722 Union VI
Jacqueline looked at the pile of items around Catherine in disbelief.
From small items like spoons, cups and plates.
From large items like tapestries, oil paintings and armor.
There were also cushions, candlesticks, curtains and other sundries.
It was full and filled the entire cabin.
"Did you move all the things in the room?"
When Jacqueline saw several jewelry boxes from the sundries side and confirmed that one of them was a long time ago and Catherine had no longer used it and had been put away, the twin sister finally confirmed that her sister had moved all the items belonging to them in the West Berlin Castle out.
"Of course!
Arthur said that this was what he fought for!
And he paid a price!"
Catherine raised her head.
"What was just thrown into the river?"
Jacqueline asked.
"Wall paint!
My things, take away everything you can, and I won't leave anything I can't take away to that guy.
If bombing the West Berlin Castle wouldn't cause a fight, I wouldn't even leave our room to him."
Catherine said as if it was a matter of course.
Snap!
Jacqueline covered her face.
It was a mixture of wanting to laugh, but also embarrassing emotions.
But Catherine, who completely let herself go, was fearless.
"It's very expensive to live in South Los.
These things are enough for us to exchange for some living expenses.
And...
That guy wants to send people to South Los with bad intentions. I think we can ask my sister for a job."
Catherine laughed, and a light flashed in her emerald green eyes.
The sister mentioned by the twin sister is naturally Melinda.
And that guy is the Marquis of West Berlin.
As for the job?
Of course, it's to monitor the people sent by the Marquis of West Berlin.
Jacqueline became more and more helpless.
But Catherine was very convincing.
"Who else in the whole of South Los is more familiar with West Berlin than us?
Even the Countess's hidden man can't be compared to us, right?
So, we are absolutely worthy of it."
Faced with her sister's words, Jacqueline did not refute.
Because, this is the fact.
And, as a sister, Jacqueline has to think more.
Although she has recognized Malinda as her sister, the two sides have already had a connection, but how this connection can become a deep emotion still needs time to sharpen, and...
Show value!
If you don't show value, even if you have feelings, they are thin.
Only when you really have value can you make the feelings deeper.
Therefore, before boarding the ship, she ordered the 'Church of Pain' to abandon the port of Dordot and start to go to various parts of West Berlin to develop in all directions.
After all, her father is more familiar with the base of the port of Dordot than she is.
Only after dispersing and redeveloping can this force become its own bargaining chip.
It may take a long time, but as long as it exists, it is enough.
Thinking of this, Jacqueline's eyes became firm.
The twin sister touched her sister's head and said softly-
"Next, it's our own life!"
"Yeah!"
Catherine nodded, with a little trepidation in her eyes, but more of expectation.
On the terrace of the top cabin, Arthur threw a contract to Melinda.
This contract represents 10% of the revenue of the Port of Dordot.
Melinda carefully checked the various terms.
Very loose ones.
There was no malice.
Immediately, the lady's mouth curled up and signed her name.
The next moment, the brilliance of the contract bloomed.
"Happy cooperation!"
The lady stretched out her hand.
After Arthur shook hands with the other party, he let go without a sound-the young psychic picked up the long-handled curved bucket that Melinda gave him.
There was tobacco pressed inside, but it was not lit.
However, Melinda didn't care about these.
The lady only cared whether Arthur fulfilled his promise.
Of course, looking at the name engraved on the long handle of the curved bucket, the lady smiled even more brightly.
Those eyes were curved.
"I got 40% of the profits from the port of Dordot.
One tenth of it is yours, and I keep 20%."
Arthur said so.
As for the remaining ten percent?
Melinda didn't ask much.
She knew who it was for.
There was no second one except her cousin, the count.
The lady didn't object.
Because they really needed someone to share the risk.
Of course, the lady would not let Arthur give it away for nothing.
"I have lost far fewer times in the port of Dordot than my cousin, and she is also obsessed with this place."
Melinda said softly.
The lady didn't say more, she believed that Arthur could hear what she meant with his intelligence.
"Of course.
I will mark a really good price for this profit."
Arthur smiled.
"And the eldest son of the old lion is not a broad-minded guy. The failure in the port of Dordot this time will make him retaliate against you severely.
He will not allow you to reach the inner bay safely.
My people received news that after that guy left yesterday, the largest river pirate group in Einhas, the 'Red Knights', has taken action.
They probably want to ambush the ‘Oriental’ during the subsequent journey! "
Malinda reminded.
After receiving such a kind reminder, Arthur immediately stood up and poured a cup of orange tea for Malinda.
You see, this is the benefit of cooperation.
People can never cover everything.
A qualified collaborator will always help you get twice the result with half the effort.
"I will keep these 200 people..."
“No need to stay.
Just let people return to Nanlos.
Believe me, that old lion's eldest son hates you as much as I do. Likewise, in order to hit me, that guy will probably attack your property.
So, you need manpower more than I do. "
Arthur handed the orange tea to Malinda.
The woman was keenly aware that Arthur was not telling the truth.
However, the woman did not reveal it.
Instead, he took the orange tea and nodded cooperatively.
"Well, I understand.
I will definitely protect our industry. "
Malinda said softly.
"Compared to those industries, you are more important. If you really get to that point, you can give up everything and still be safe. Only your safety can allow me to move forward bravely."
Arthur said very seriously.
Malinda knew that Arthur was acting, but facing those deep eyes, the lady always felt her heartbeat speed up.
"Um."
Again, Malinda nodded.
Afterwards, Arthur took Malinda towards the first class cabin downstairs.
Malinda will take sisters Jacqueline and Catherine directly back to Nanlos.
And just after Arthur and Malinda left, on the table in the top cabin, the lead box containing part of Mihailo jumped slightly.
Not a single sound was made.
But Arthur, who was going downstairs, could not help but curl up the corner of his mouth——
Hooked!
