Chapter 343: Meeting
Chapter 343: Meeting (Subscription Request)
Just as Douglas said, this night was destined to be a sleepless night.
Douglas Hill first returned to his laboratory and recruited all his apprentices.
Then he wrote out invitations by hand and handed them to the apprentices.
These apprentices will send the invitations to the most powerful people in the entire city of Auckland.
Some of those who received the letter were confused, some were puzzled, some frowned, some were distressed, and some immediately sent people out to inquire about the news...
There were various reactions, but even the commanders of the most independent Church of the Seven Gods and the Seventh Mixed Legion made their positions clear.
It will definitely come tomorrow!
This is Roy’s prestige!
In fact, he had neither an identity nor a clear position in Oakland City, but he was qualified. One invitation letter could get everyone moving.
Of course, Luo Yi didn't care about these.
He did not stay in the Mage Tower for too long, but took the sleeping Mrs. Linda and rode Douglas' magic carriage back to 19 Lombardy Street.
Here he met Mrs. Lavinia Cassidy again.
I haven't seen Mrs. Cassidy for nearly two years. She is still in good health, but her eyesight is impaired and her eyesight is dim.
When he saw Luo Yi, he moved closer to her, confirmed her identity, and immediately gave her a big hug and a hearty smile.
In a sense, she is now also working for Luo Yi, and is considered the housekeeper of this house, with a considerable salary every month.
It’s just that Luo Yi and the others are not here, and the little old lady is very lonely. She is really happy at this moment!
It is also because of the presence of this little old lady that the house, although uninhabited, is kept clean and tidy.
Luo Yi first used the scroll of 'levitation' to send Mrs. Linda to the goose down bed to rest.
Then, he sat behind the desk, flipped through a book casually, and tasted the tea and snacks brought by Mrs. Cassidy.
It was as if time had gone back to the past, and my slightly restless heart gradually calmed down.
Luo Yi is still very young, but that's not the case. He is more like an old man who likes to reminisce about the past.
He did not sleep that night, but just sat there to conserve his energy, thinking constantly about what he was going to do.
As for Oliveira, he hid in the shadows, like the most dedicated guard, protecting Mrs. Linda's safety.
This situation continued until dawn, when a horse-drawn carriage appeared on the street corner.
But it was too early, and the owner of the carriage did not come forward, but waited there.
Then, one carriage after another appeared, more and more, forming a long queue.
At this time, Mrs. Linda finally woke up from her deep sleep. Perhaps it was because she had not slept so soundly for too long. She was confused for a long time after opening her eyes.
It was not until she saw Luo Yi again that she sat up in shock, her eyes full of disbelief.
"Luo Yi, you actually came."
"I'm here to pick you up to pick up the flowers. Of course, I'm also here to fulfill Mr. Gary's commission."
"Gary? What the hell is wrong with that bastard Gary? How dare he just leave without saying goodbye?"
Mrs. Linda acted very irritable, but the sadness in her eyes could not be concealed. Roy repeated what he knew.
Even after he stopped talking, Mrs. Linda still couldn't let it go: "We are husband and wife, and our marriage vows are that we must face poverty or wealth, illness or hardship together.
How dare he? How dare he leave without saying goodbye? "
"Mrs. Linda!"
Luo Yi raised his voice, even with a bit of the soul-shaking "dragon's might blooming", before she calmed down.
At this time, Luo Yi said: "I think Teacher Gary's choice is right."
“I don’t know what happened to Teacher Gary, but what needs to be faced must be faced, and only by facing the problem can it be solved.
And, don’t worry!
He has the Thousand Faces Mask in his hand, and with his accurate marksmanship, if he wants to escape, even a fourth-level natural disaster will find it difficult to catch him. "
"So, instead of worrying about Mr. Gary, why not solve your problem first."
After a pause, Luo Yi said, "Come back with me to get the flowers!
It just so happens that I am getting married to Lilia, and she needs your help in taking care of all the wedding matters and the reception for the female relatives."
Mrs. Linda pursed her lips and said, "But if I leave, Gary, if he..."
“He won’t come back here again. Once the matter is resolved, he will go directly to the Flower Ring to find you.
And, most importantly, if you insist on staying here and are captured by the dark forces, then Teacher Gary will be really tied up and face a near-death experience."
"As for your Ortiz Pharmaceuticals, don't worry. I will find the most suitable manager to ensure that your profits will only increase, not decrease."
"Okay, okay!"
In order to persuade Mrs. Linda, Roy had tried his best to persuade her. Fortunately, Mrs. Linda was not a stubborn person. After thinking for a while and weighing the pros and cons, she agreed.
After dealing with her, Luo Yi finally breathed a sigh of relief. It was considered that he had solved the most uncontrollable problem of this trip.
Although there are still many things to do later, he doesn't find it difficult.
When the sun rose, Mrs. Cassidy had already prepared breakfast. After a quick bite, he began to receive the guests.
Luo Yi is not familiar with these people, and there are too many of them. Everyone has their own ideas and demands, which will become very troublesome.
Therefore, this time Luo Yi did not meet publicly, but met with them one by one in the study to communicate and exchange ideas.
The first person he met was Bud Petrovich, the current governor of Oakland and cousin of Baron Miller.
According to Baron Miller himself, his cousin is calm but lacks ability, kind-hearted but not decisive enough.
He can't do anything to expand the territory, but if it's a good "foundation", it won't get worse when it's handed over to him.
This one is a typical city defender.
After the two governors of the Petrovich family cleaned up the city drastically, Oakland has been on the right track of development.
Once various tones and policies are determined, what is needed is someone who acts in a stable and balanced manner.
He maintained the city of Oakland pretty well and there were hardly any major problems.
But his flaws are also prominent, like this time, when faced with the case of kidnapping a young girl, he was very slow.
Facing him, Roy can still make the decision. After all, everyone knows that he has a good relationship with Miller.
Moreover, this time they are facing a fourth-level natural disaster, so they naturally expressed their full cooperation.
The second person that Loy received was the commander of the Seventh Mixed Corps, a powerful and tough soldier, Colonel Enzo Paxson.
He has been in charge of the Seventh Mixed Corps for many years.
Having experienced the curfew in Oakland, the bombardment of the Twilight Priory, and even the military exercise of the Multinational Convention,
It can be said that he is the person with the most power and the highest status.
If he didn't have some personal relationship with the Petrovic family, he would probably not pay any attention to Roy.
Facing him, Luo Yi didn't waste any words. He directly stated his demands and gave his conditions.
In the Habsburg Empire, the legions cannot be moved lightly. If they get out of control or are driven by some ambitious people, they can easily cause great damage.
There is a precedent for this, and the imperial family is very taboo about it!
But as the saying goes, there are policies from the top and countermeasures from the bottom. There are always practical measures.
For example, with the endorsement of the local government and a petition submitted, which is then approved and a document issued by the military, a part of the army can be mobilized to intervene in certain local affairs.
Although these things may seem complicated, they can actually be accomplished quickly through the magic communication network.
As long as both parties are willing.
And Roy had only one way to impress Colonel Enzo Paxson: spend money!
Donate money, buildings, supplies and weapons to the base!
The legion and the local area are separate, but if someone sends a banner or supplies to the legion, we cannot refuse!
Roy distributed money through formal channels, and Colonel Enzo Paxson could also accept it through formal channels.
Then, since he got benefits and extra credit, he was naturally willing to do it.
The only one who suffered in this transaction was Luo Yi's wallet, but he had the most money!
The third person to enter 19 Lombard Street was Mr. Mark Williams, an acquaintance of Roy's, the president of the Seven Gods Bank and a loyal believer of the goddess of wealth, Woking.
Roy's first windfall, the proceeds from the Bloody Mary Pirates, was deposited into the Seven Gods Bank through this person.
Even in the later period, Luo Yi's deposits and withdrawals in the Seven Gods Bank were handled through him.
It would have been fine before, but after the succession of the Earl and the promotion of the magic energy industry,
The amount of money flowing into Naluoyi's name had reached an exaggerated level.
Mark Williams used to be the president of a small local bank, but now, with a turnover of millions of gold sterlings, he can speak with his head held high among the believers of Woking.
In response to Luo Yi's request, he patted his chest and guaranteed it!
Not only the banks, but even the bishops of other seven temples were introduced, negotiated, matched and coordinated by him.
In the end, they managed to put together a very powerful temple team and took several sacred items specifically designed to target dark creatures.
And Roy also promised that as long as Mark remained in this position, all the business of the Raymond family through the Seven Gods Bank would go through him.
As for the Temple of the Seven Gods, he would send someone to deliver a substantial donation to ensure their satisfaction.
Behind them were two third-level spellcasters from the Philante School of Magic, the director of the police department, and managers at all levels of the Roy Fitz Magic Group.
In short, after the talks, Roy mobilized all the forces in the city of Oakland by means of spending money, making promises and many other means.
By noon, all those who needed to be interviewed had been interviewed, and all those who needed to be communicated with had been communicated with.
Luo Yi finally walked to the balcony on the second floor, facing the street, the countless newspaper reporters and onlookers, and began his speech.
