Chapter 900: Riot!

DR1370 May 17!

This will be a day destined to be remembered by the entire Faeron Continent!

Because the common people and the poor, who had always been weak and deceitful, finally burst out with unprecedented strength, gathered more than 10,000 people at once, and marched towards the administrative district.

Maybe it was because the large number of people gave them an illusion of invincibility, or maybe it was that they had been suppressed for too long, so the outburst was extremely strong, and along the way, they knocked all the guards who wanted to intercept to the ground, stripping them of their armor and weapons.

Such a large-scale march and riot shocked the whole of Ascatila!

Not only the nobles and merchants were shocked! Even the Shadow Thieves, the Temple, the Knights of the Warmest Heart, and even the Council of Six panicked, mobilizing troops to defend the municipal building while sending spies to find out what was going on.

Unfortunately, their movements were too slow, and as more and more people joined the demonstrators, this torrent of terror was already unstoppable, and finally even some land hooligans who were not controlled by the guild joined in, taking the opportunity to smash and loot the merchants' shops, and the scene was a chaotic mess, and the more than 500 people under Arnomen alone could not maintain order at all.

In fact, the so-called riots for freedom and democracy advocated by history are basically the same, to put it bluntly, they are to incite class antagonism, so that ordinary people living at the bottom of society can vent their anger and √dissatisfaction, in addition to bringing about the destruction of miè and the regression of civilization, the rest is an internal struggle for power, and finally become a member of the ruling class, and a small part of the civilians who start the riots can obtain the coveted rights. But most will live even more miserable.

But humans are such complex and contradictory creatures. while clamoring for the elimination of classes. Establish an equal and free social system, but no matter who has the right, once it has the right, it will no longer want to give it up, but use more covert means, such as the law, and then public opinion, so that the majority of people living at the bottom of the society think that they are the masters of the country.

But in reality?

In fact, it is the same whether it is the earliest slave society or the modern democratic society on the earth. The only difference is that Western society is determined by capital, while Eastern society is determined by rights, and that's it.

Seeing the uncontrollable chaos sweeping over more and more shops, many businesses closed their doors one after another, locking their doors for fear of being ransacked by the mob, and even the members of the Knights of the Warmest Heart, who had just arrived, did not know what to do.

On the one hand, suppressing the angry civilians was obviously not in line with the norms of goodness, and on the other hand, they could not allow the riots to continue, Grand Master Witherland sighed slightly, and retreated back to the temple area with the battle-hardened knights.

He knows it well. Whichever side they choose, the Knights' Paladins are likely to fall into guilt and conflict. Slipping into the abyss of depravity, it is wisest to return to the headquarters and wait, although it may be saddled with some infamy, but it is still a hundred times better than the fall of a large group of paladins.

The scale has grown to this point is no longer something that anyone can control, and Lindell, the initiator, did not expect such a result, there are many coolies who are honest on weekdays who dare to rush up to hit the well-trained guards, and then snatch all the weapons, armor and money bags on the other party's body, roaring and striding forward, and the hideous faces are completely like a different person.

unimaginable disaster!

However, it was a big surprise for him with ulterior motives, because according to the current situation, it would take almost no effort to complete the task delivered by the succubus.

"Kill these (dog) mother-of-the-law profiteers!"

"Look up to the kingdom of West Hartland! Abolish the poll tax! ”

"We're going to work! We want bread! ”

"Raise your salary! We want more paychecks! ”

……

A terrifying number of people looted the shops along the street and shouted slogans, sweeping the entire dock area, shopping mall area, and bridge area like locusts crossing the border, causing damage that can be described as nothing to do, and many merchants from other places were looted, sitting on the ground and crying loudly.

It can be said that this city, which is famous for its commerce, has already been dealt a degrading blow, at least until the situation is stabilized, there will definitely be no merchants to do business again, and local merchants will flee in large numbers, Henry's original goal is almost half done at this moment, and the rest depends on the reaction of the council.

Standing on the top floor of the Garden Inn, Gervera watched the horrific sight, took a deep breath and asked the people behind her, "What is our loss today?" ”

"We got the news in advance, so we didn't open for business, only some samples were robbed, and the loss was about 1,500 gold coins, and some glass windows were broken, and we should be able to reopen soon after the turmoil subsides." An old man in his fifties replied earnestly.

After hearing that the loss was only more than a thousand gold coins, Govilla patted his chest lightly and sighed with a wry smile: "Fortunately, we have always donated to the mutual aid association, otherwise we would definitely be looted like other merchants." Sue the people below, don't open for business these last few days, and at the same time have prepared money, I am ready to buy back those things that have been robbed at a low price, and then sell them to other places. Amm is about to become turbulent, it is a good time to sell weapons, armor and food, and jewelry, arts, crafts, etc., which will soon depreciate significantly, is a good opportunity for us to make a fortune! ”

After she finished speaking, she slapped the deputy on the top floor hard, and her eyes shone with excitement and excitement.

Gvera is no longer the youthful and energetic girl she used to be, and the large profit commission is enough for her to change her position and become a mercenary businesswoman.

Since Henry took over the large number of caravans, fleets, shops, and properties of the Ronoor family in Am, as long as they were all in operation, they could earn a large amount of gold coins every month, plus the output and taxes of a large territory, the rich would have become the richest in the country, if they hadn't fed a little more private army, they would have become the richest people in the country long ago.

Of course. The reason why business is so smooth is also related to the resounding reputation and the status of the legendary spellcaster. You must know that merchants compete with each other in a completely all-encompassing way. Hire thieves to steal and destroy your opponent's shops, buy pirates or robbers to rob ships and caravans, in short, how efficient you are.

But Henry's estate had never suffered from such problems, especially after the news of his destruction of a city in the Dark Regions made the hearts of those with a little bad intentions tremble, and what was even more interesting was that the shadow thieves and pirates did not touch the ships and caravans with the crest of the Angome family, and they did not even charge tolls.

Such a strange situation has caused many people to speculate. Could it be that the shadow thieves and pirates are also afraid of the power of the legendary mage, so they dare not act rashly.

How did they know that Henry had already formed a close alliance with the shadow thieves, and the pirates of the Nlanthor Islands had also been subdued, coupled with the fact that the Ring of Truth had secretly controlled a large number of robbers and monsters in the surrounding area, it could be said that the entire evil forces with a little power around Amm were under his control, how could these guys dare to interfere with the business of the big boss behind their scenes, are they impatient?

It is precisely because of the myriad of conveniences that Govvera has been able to expand so quickly, and Amelia's mage tower is now also running well. Offering at least a hundred potions and five magic items each month, she became the city's most exclusive masked mage. The second Chamber of Commerce that sells magic-related stuff without being shut down.

The old man in his fifties knew that his chamber of commerce had a strong background, and nodded happily: "Madam, please rest assured, I will immediately ask people to raise funds to ensure that all the robbed things are purchased at the lowest price." ”

"Hmmm! The action must be fast, and it is better to strike before the other big chambers of commerce react. Remember, keep your mouth shut to everyone involved, and I'll give you 10 percent of the dividends afterwards. ”

In order to keep it secret, Govilla did not hesitate to give a promise, she knew very well that her chamber of commerce was not like those centuries-old brands, with a large number of loyal guys, so she must take out a part of the profits to trap the people below, otherwise once this kind of thing is leaked, it will have a great impact on the reputation of the chamber of commerce.

"Hundred...... Hundred...... Ten percent!!!!! After hearing this, the old man was surprised to have a heart attack, and hurriedly took a few deep breaths to calm down his excitement, and then asked excitedly: "Are you sure it's okay to do this?" According to my estimates, at least tens of thousands of gold coins will be paid, and if you receive magic items, this number will increase several times, so don't you need to notify our boss? ”

"There's no need for that, he said before he left, if there was turmoil in Am, I could make any decision on the fly. Business opportunities are fleeting, and we need to make the most of this opportunity. Think about it, if we make a profit of hundreds of thousands of gold coins at a time, how much commission can we get at that time? Gervera shouted as vigorously as a madwoman.

The more she came into contact with people in high society, the more she found that life could be so easy and comfortable, so she became more eager to earn more profits, and she could have whatever she wanted when the time came, which was the life that a real person should live.

The old man was also excited at the thought that he might be able to get thousands of gold coins, gritted his teeth and stomped his feet and shouted, "It's done!" For a lot of gold! I'm going to get the people down there moving, and if anyone dares to mess up, I'm going to throw him into the ocean and feed the sharks. ”

"That's right! It's about maintaining this momentum! Go ahead and get everyone moving! Also, with all the armor and weapons ready, I think those mobs will need them soon. With that, Gvera patted the old man on the shoulder, turned and walked towards his office.

She needs to check her accounts carefully so that she has a general idea of the liquidity and hoarding of goods at hand, so as to prevent the disconnection of funds.
