Chapter 295 The Birth of Nasir City!
A few days later.
Nearly 10,000 people gathered in the Nasir Citizen Square, waiting eagerly. They looked at Mr. Byrne Fisher, who was white-haired but still energetic on the podium.
To this day, that man is almost the spiritual leader of many Syat people on the East Coast. Now Byrne stood upright on the podium, holding a speech in his hand and looking at every citizen around him.
Finally, he said very solemnly:
"Today! The Fisher family will officially announce a news. His Majesty King Syat has approved that from now on, Nasir will get rid of the status of a town and officially become a new city in the East Coast Province!"
"We all firmly believe that Nasir City will develop better and better, and every Syat person will be proud of this city!"
"Every year on this day in the future, our Fisher family will hold a city celebration for Nasir! People will always remember this great day of history!"
After King Syat's approval, Nasir finally got rid of the title of a town and officially became the third city in the East Coast Province.
In the streets and alleys of the city, people cheered enthusiastically.
They excitedly waved the flag symbolizing Syat and participated in the celebration with all their heart. A very happy atmosphere filled the air, and laughter and cheers intertwined into songs.
Young people had bright smiles on their faces. They sang and danced, holding hands and happily forming a circle to sing loudly. The children ran happily, throwing colorful colored paper, and playing in the crowd.
Every corner of the city was filled with infinite joy, and the vendors on the street also joined the celebration. They put out special promotional products so that more people could share the joy.
From sunrise to sunset, the city was full of vitality, and the citizens cheered and welcomed a better tomorrow together.
The celebration continued until the evening, and when the celebration was about to end, Bayne Fisher quietly left the open-air banquet.
"Let's go."
He sat in the carriage, and the elderly Tio served as the coachman.
The carriage started.
Night had completely fallen, but Nasir was still celebrating its birth.
The two came to Fisher Manor in silence.
In the hall of Fisher Manor, most of the family members had arrived, and the person sitting in the middle of the crowd was Chris's daughter, Christine Fisher.
She was wearing a black dress and sitting in a wheelchair, with Andre and the three purgers standing beside her.
Andre looked a bit like Best, and Byrne subconsciously stared at him and shook his head slightly.
Darren complained, "Do we have to hold a family meeting today? Isn't today a city celebration?"
Christine immediately said, "Because today is special, all family members will come back in full, so I chose this day to clarify what's going to happen next."
Byrne also nodded and said, "I think it's necessary."
"Christine has found some problems in the past few years, and they are all problems that our family has ignored. If it weren't for her investigation, those problems would continue to be hidden."
He paused and continued, "Let everyone gather together today to solve those problems."
Christine said, "In the final analysis, it's because we are developing too fast, and the corresponding management system has not kept up."
Vanessa next to her nodded slightly, it was true.
The East Coast has a population of over a million people, and they have actually controlled the entire province for less than ten years, so it is natural that there will be various mistakes.
Christine saw that everyone had arrived, so she said to the leader of the purgers:
"Go and bring the people over."
"Yes, Miss Christine."
The leader of the purger nodded, and then went out with the other two purgers. After a while, they brought up an old man who was almost sixty years old.
"Who is he?"
"I don't know him at all."
"Does anyone know who this person is?"
Except for Byrne, who has a "deep memory", no one in the Fisher family can recognize who the old man is.
Byrne said calmly: "He is John's grandson."
After saying this, he was stunned for a moment. The grandson of the sea merchant John has become a gray-haired old man. Time has passed too fast.
Most people vaguely remember who John is. Their maritime merchant family is one of the many small families that follow the Fisher family today. The descendants of the maritime merchant John have never become converts.
Because their family has rich experience in maritime business, and the friendship between Byrne and John, the Fisher family has handed over some unimportant maritime businesses to the people of these small families to manage.
Christine asked seriously: "Do you know what you have done, so you are brought here?"
The old man thought for a moment, but still lowered his head and said: "I plead guilty. In recent years, I have been stealing fish caught by family ships. I dare not touch the extraordinary materials, but I have indeed replaced a lot of those regular fish..."
The old man soon explained his guilt. There are several similar fish in the White Sea, but some are of high value and rare production. They are delicacies sought after by nobles, while the other part is very cheap and abundant in production.
The old man secretly exchanged several types of fish for many years, earned the price difference, and secretly ate a lot of money.
Byrne looked at Vanessa and Moore on the Road of Order, nodded and said:
"It's up to you to decide the punishment."
Although they didn't say it explicitly, family members all understood that it was for the promotion ceremony of the two.
"I admit my guilt, I accept my punishment, I admit it all..."
The old man was taken out in despair. Everyone looked at each other, thinking that such a small thing was not enough to call everyone together.
The second person brought up was also a middle-aged man whom no one knew, with a burly build.
As a result, as soon as the middle-aged man came up, he immediately ran to Moore and knelt in front of him, desperately reaching out to hug his legs.
"Save me! Save me! Mr. Moore, you must save me!"
The gray-haired Moore looked at him calmly and asked, "Who are you?"
The middle-aged man shouted: "Mr. Moore, your brother Quill is my best friend! I am also your brother!"
Moore shook his head and confirmed: "You are not from the Short Knife Brotherhood, are you?"
The middle-aged man hesitated for a moment, then replied: "Indeed not, I met your brother at the casino, and he and I have always gotten along like brothers!"
"Shut up!"
Christine suddenly interrupted him and shouted: "Tell me about the sins you have committed!"
"me……"
The middle-aged man hesitated for a long time and did not dare to say anything at all.
Christine sneered and said: "Forget it, let me tell you. Relying on his relationship with the Dagger Brotherhood, he murdered several families in Fein City, and also set fire to a brothel completely, causing four direct injuries. Seventeen people died on the spot.”
“The most important thing is that he is known to outsiders as a ‘Fischer man’.”
Everyone's expressions changed a bit. There were many bullying incidents, but I didn't expect this guy to do this.
Moore was stunned for a moment, and he didn't expect that the brother's friend in front of him could make such a fuss.
And the most terrifying thing is that he still doesn’t know about this matter!
Christine in the wheelchair looked at Moore and nodded: "Of course Mr. Moore doesn't know, because the people in the Dagger Brotherhood don't dare to check on your brother, right? Every time this person commits a crime, he will be with your brother." Very drunk."
"This matter is actually not a big deal to be honest. It was not even discovered by the purifiers, but a rumor discovered by Andre."
Andre nodded, walked out and said to everyone: "This is what happened."
"There is a story circulating in the brothels in Fein City. It is said that there is a burly blood knight who beats the prostitutes in the brothel every time he is drunk. He even beat a pair of sisters to death, so the prostitutes are very afraid. Being spotted by that blood knight..."
"I went to investigate this matter and found out that the man who killed the prostitute sisters not only 'accidentally killed' the prostitute sisters, he also often asked middle- and low-level members of the Dagger Brotherhood to cover for him, and then broke into private houses... …”
He paused, his eyes filled with cold murderous intent.
"According to my investigation, there were beautiful and healthy girls in the houses he broke into, and those houses would catch fire afterwards, leaving no survivors at all."
Vanessa's face was full of disgust when she heard it, and she even wanted to vomit. The middle-aged man behaved like an animal!
Of course, compared to Vanessa's anger, more people present were not thinking about the issue of good and evil, but the damage this incident would cause to the security of the East Coast Province, and if it spread, it would definitely have a huge impact on the Fisher family. bad.
Andre continued, indifferently: "He drank too much once and killed many people in the brothel, and then he simply set a fire to cover up the truth."
He paused and continued:
"In the end, Mr. Moore's brother came forward to help resolve the matter, and he paid for it with a family heirloom treasure."
Everyone couldn't help but look at Moore, the leader of the Short Knife Brotherhood. He nodded calmly and said, "Even my brother will not escape punishment. Those gang members who colluded with him will also be tried."
Christine ordered the purifiers to take the middle-aged man away and said: "These things are like holes bitten by ants. They will not have any impact on the Fisher family in a short time, but they will eventually cause harm over time." ”
The status of these two people is not high, and the harm caused cannot be considered huge, but the next step is the highlight of Christine's talk.
The last person brought up by the purifiers immediately stunned many people, especially Byrne.
That is a person that everyone has met many times. He often comes to Nasir to participate in various celebrations and banquets.
Byrne looked at the very old, hobbling scholar with disbelief in his eyes.
He looked at Christine a little subtly and said, "What on earth are you doing? Mr. Street, he was my teacher at the military academy, a well-known scholar who focused on academics."
