Realm of Power

Just outside the Northern Business Alliance branch, Su Lan walked through the corridor. The light outside the window was bright, light and rhythmic sounds echoed in the corridor, and people were coming and going in the building. Everyone is in a hurry. Su Lan's appearance felt like a fresh breeze blowing through the entire building. People who live high and low will always subconsciously look back at this woman with long, wavy hair and a swaying posture when she walks. Twenty-one-year-old Su Lan is ripe enough to make people salivate. Her natural beauty coupled with Gu Pan's deft femininity is extremely sexy and alluring in the eyes of any man. What's more, she was recommended by the branch as one of the persons in charge of the auction, and her future is limitless. !

Su Lan is a person transferred from the mainland of the empire. His official position is the leader of the Foreign Affairs Group of the Commercial Department of the Northern Congo-Africa Business Alliance. His background is related to the Parlan family of the branch minister Parlan Resu. This time the Parlan family won the Congo-North Congo in the competition. Because of her position in the branch, she was specifically transferred from the empire's local business alliance to the northern branch of the Confederation. Ignoring the astonished looks around her, Su Lan only frowned slightly and walked forward. For her, at this time, she had no time to think about other things. All her thoughts were occupied by the look of that woman Sokutus Stellan ignoring her.

, are the Thirteen Deacons of the Business Alliance amazing? In terms of ability and appearance, what is the difference between me and this woman? I heard that this woman was almost sold to a brothel back then, but she suddenly soared into the sky for some unknown reason. If this is the difference, then... Literature{c}{f}{w}{x}.The only difference is opportunity.

As long as there is a chance, I, Su Lan, can climb to the top. As long as this auction can be successfully concluded, I can become the first female deputy branch director of the Business Alliance. When she came to an office door, she opened the door and Hearing the angry roar of "Asshole!" came from the office, a middle-aged businessman with a ruddy face smashed a blue ceramic vase with flowers on the ground. On his table, there is a business alliance butler brand. On the front of the brand is a number thirteen composed of complicated gilt patterns. It is the piece that Kutustellan asked the maid to wear to represent his identity and order. token,

"Lord Paranresu, what happened?"

At this moment, Su Lan, who was wearing a white dress and had a charming face, walked in from the door with a document. Her eyes paused on the porcelain pieces. Countless pieces exploded on the ground, and the pieces scattered in all directions. The white pieces were also One side reveals a white color that is not as jade-like. Instead, it was mixed with a faint yellowish-white color, which made Sulan's pupils shrink slightly, and her hand holding the document tightened, "That woman Kutusdelan is crazy, who does she think she is! But here is The northern part of the country is my territory. She wanted to close the store I invested hundreds of thousands of dollars in with just one warrant. She also rudely kidnapped my daughter and hurt my customers. How dare she act so arrogantly? Come to the head of my Paran family"

The middle-aged businessman saw it was him. His anger dissipated somewhat, and he said displeasedly that he was none other than Paranresu, a forty-year-old man, one of the twelve deacons of the Business Alliance. Although his head is hairy, his dark red eyebrows and mustache are thick and bushy, and his nose is red, like a well-nourished fat baby. His whole body was radiant, and at first glance, he looked like the owner of a beer hall. But at this moment, his eyes were full of bloodshot eyes, and he was gnashing his teeth with hatred. As the person in charge of the business alliance in northern Congo, he was still being controlled by a woman. How could he not be upset?

"That woman is like that. The name of the Thirteenth Deacon is just empty air." Sulan looked very calm, frowned slightly, and said coldly, "But Miss Palan should be fine. It's just that this time the other party named her Thirteenth." As a deacon, I ordered the store to be closed, and even arrested Miss Palanjila as a threat. I’m afraid it’s not just as simple as bowing to you, I always feel that the other party may have noticed something!”

"Aware!" When Paranresu heard this word, his furious face calmed down, he thought for a moment, and shook his head with certainty.

"That's impossible. Among the auction items this time, apart from the crown that is the most eye-catching, the six white porcelain eagle sculptures from Central and South Africa from the Gallic Palace in the north are the most dazzling. Each one has more than one Large porcelain is definitely a rare treasure. It is milky white and delicate. It is born with a nobility like a king, and it is also an imperial king. The collection in the room is of immeasurable value. If it were not for the special significance of the Gangfei Crown, it would not be placed in the second position this time. We used six fakes to pretend to be genuine and stuffed them into the auction list according to due procedures. As long as they are not too People who are careful will not be able to notice the difference in luster between the real thing and the fake one! Unless..."

Paranresu raised his head and looked at Sulan with gleaming eyes, "How could I tell her!" Sulan's pretty face changed slightly, feeling like she was being stared at by a poisonous snake, "That's absolutely no problem!" Paranresu He breathed a sigh of relief, with a hint of ruthlessness in his eyes, and said in a deep voice, "This matter was done perfectly. Even if something goes wrong afterwards, the crazy girl will be investigated first." Human, unless someone dares to smash the eagle in front of her, you and I are the only two people who know that the fakes are passed off as genuine and stuffed into the auction list! As long as you and I don't say anything, even if there is an investigation afterwards, she can only choose to acquiesce! Otherwise, her reputation will be ruined. After all, she is responsible for providing these things. As long as you and I insist on it, nothing will happen!"

Su Lan's face turned pale, and she held up the hair on her forehead. "This is what worries me the most. Don't forget, these goods were all hand-picked by her! What if she finds out during the auction?" , after all, it is the property of the empire. Use six counterfeit products produced in the northwest region of the empire to It is too risky to pass it off as a good one. Don’t forget that the interior of the exquisite porcelain from Central Asia is not as light yellowish white as the interior of this fragment. The buyer may not know this, but the woman must know it! "What can she do if she knows? She can't get to the auction house!" I have reported it to the Imperial Supervision Department, saying that this woman is using the crown to spread rumors for her own benefit!" Paranresu was confident, and glanced at the wall hanging opposite, and said in a serious voice, "We can't touch her in the Business Alliance. Then let the Imperial Supervision Department touch her. "The Empire is currently If you don't take her very seriously, you will definitely investigate this matter. Even if this woman really has a deep background in the Empire as rumored, she will be too busy to take care of us in a short period of time. "Then the entire auction will be hosted by you. , as long as the buyers don’t smash these eagles in front of them, we will be successful. And I believe that absolutely no one among the buyers would be willing to do that. These fakes look just like the real ones, and they are all good things that you may not be able to buy with gold. "I have to say that those buyers are very familiar with jewelry, but It would be impossible to say that they are also familiar with porcelain! I'm afraid of meeting someone who knows these eagles. "Sulan looked hesitant, her face still a little ugly. With a woman's intuition, she always felt that something was wrong, but she didn't know where the problem was." No! There are only a handful of people in the entire empire who have actually seen these eagles," Paranresu said with certainty with a proud look on his face.

"But..." Sulan still wanted to say

"Go to that crazy woman and see what conditions she will ask for letting my daughter go?" Paransu Lei waved his hand to the pale Sulan.

"If you don't have courage, how can you achieve anything? How can you achieve something if you are timid? As long as you succeed this time, you will be the deputy director of the branch. If you don't want to do it, there are many people who want to do it! Don't forget. It was me who recommended you to that crazy woman , I can naturally replace you. If you don’t have my protection then, then This crazy woman is unlucky. You can't escape the connection! The prison of the Supervision Department is no joke! Is there someone behind her? She wants to stink and rot in there. A corpse that no one can recognize?" Param Sule coaxed and frightened him, and snorted with an unkind expression. "Yes! Got it!" Su Lan's beautiful face lost all color. She put down the document in her hand and walked out of the room pale. After she left, Paransule bent down and picked up a fragment on the ground. He looked at the milky white and yellowish white on both sides of the fragment, and couldn't help but hold the fragment tightly with his hand.

If he hadn't used the contacts he had accumulated for a long time and the family's development funds in the next few years to win the position of business alliance deacon this time, he wouldn't have needed to take such a risk. It's no wonder he was so angry just now and cursed, in this At that time, he smashed one of his most profitable stores, and even closed the store completely as the Thirteen Butlers. It was like cutting off his flesh.

In this auction, in order to recover the funds as quickly as possible, he put all his money on it. On the one hand, he strongly recommended Su Lan, the traitor, to secretly pass off the inferior goods.

On the other hand, he teamed up with Governor Boqix of Congo to spread rumors about the crown to Congo and planned to make a lot of money from the Central Committee of Congo. However, these six eagles were actually for the governors of Congo. Prepared. The name of the Falcon Empire contains an eagle, and the nickname of the Falcon Emperor is Falcon. Since I haven’t grabbed the Gangfei Crown, it would be good to grab these fine porcelains to present to the Emperor of the Falcon Empire. I don’t have to worry about not selling well. price,

It's a pity that he predicted that his arrangement had disrupted the empire's overall situation regarding Gang Fei, and even reported to the Ministry of Supervision to frame up the blame to hold back Sokutus Stellan, thus attracting a group of people who would never appear in his eyes. someone of

These eagle eagles were a national gift given by the Central Asian Empire to the Gallic Emperor when he ascended the throne. They were of great significance. The Gallic Empire fell and Kyoto was occupied by the Falcon Empire. Naturally, these imperial collections fell into the hands of the Falcon Empire.

Originally, as he thought, these six eagle sculptures fit the image of the Falcon Empire, but because they were made of porcelain, and the number was six, they corresponded to the homophonic pronunciation of "Liu". Fatty didn't like it after seeing it, and he Even if our empire cannot last for thousands of years, it cannot be as brittle as porcelain and slippery. This kind of thing that subjugates the country always has some bad luck!

Moreover, the Gallic Empire and the Central Asian Empire had been hostile to each other for hundreds of years. Hundreds of thousands of people died in battle. Several generations of emperors worked hard. A border war broke out just a few years before the relationship between the two countries improved. The relationship between the two countries has been at its peak in recent years. Only in the year was forced by the situation to improve.

Maybe the Central Asian Empire used this as a gift for the emperor's enthronement as a mockery. The Gauls couldn't see that I don't want such ominous things.

The fat man casually handed over these precious eagle eagles to Sokutus Stellan for disposal.

This time, in order to complement Gang Fei's crown, Sokutus Stellan put these six eagle eagles up for auction, but even she thought that someone dared to steal these eagle eagles under her nose with substandard goods. It was not her. Carelessness, but this era is developing too fast, so fast that she can't keep up.

If it were a year ago, this kind of thing would have never happened. Porcelain is a specialty of the Central and African people. Fatty once made porcelain, but he gave up when he found that it could not be made on a large scale and popularized. After all, in terms of people's livelihood, ordinary people Cheap pottery is more practical. However, during the empire's expedition to the Slavic wilderness last winter, it not only acquired Zhongbia's large-scale production of daily porcelain technology from the Yue Valley, but also invisibly opened up a long corridor connecting Eastern and Western cultures. The civilized style of the Zhongbia Empire Blows from this corridor,

As winter passes and the earth returns to spring,

The Slavic wilderness has turned into an endless sea of ​​flowers. The people of Dongting gathered all their strength to attack the Baili Changting in Kyoto of the Central Asian Empire. They were suppressed by the imperial soldiers and temporarily withdrew from the wilderness. The empire's frontier has expanded eastward to the edge of Central and Northwestern Asia, and the caravan traffic from China and Northwestern Asia has become increasingly intensive.

More Central and Asian technologies penetrated the empire, among which the rise of the porcelain industry near the northern Great Wall is the most notable.

For most Obaro people, the dazzling white ceramics from Zambia, thousands of miles away, are a symbol of high status and nobility.

Especially in recent years, with the increase in the number of businessmen from China and Libya. Those with more ability in the family regard owning a piece of Zhongbia ceramics as a symbol of wealth, so there is a great demand for ceramics, and ceramic workshops have been established in the empire. At the beginning, most of the porcelain produced was not pure white in color, because the Zhongbian craftsmen brought by Yueshan were just ordinary folk kiln craftsmen, and their workmanship skills could only be regarded as average, and they could only be used as daily necessities. However, as some businessmen from Central Asia brought more detailed technologies, and some Central Asian craftsmen came to escape the war, the empire's porcelain-making technology has been greatly improved.

In the northwest district, the center of the empire's industry, after some exploration some time ago, and with the addition of some Zhongbia craftsmen joining the workshop, fine products that are not much different in appearance from Zhongbia genuine products have begun to appear. The reason for the difference is because The mineral content in the soil is different from that in Central and Bibia, so there are still some doubts in the interior of the fine porcelain fired.

Just as Paranresu said, unless someone breaks the porcelain in person to tell the difference, it will be impossible to tell at all!

This was the result of the commercial development of the empire. With the expansion of the empire's territory, political and economic influence radiated outwards, inclusive ethnic policies, open and dynamic commercial activities, the prosperity and power of the empire, like a magnet, also attracted people from China and Libya. , southern Feser, the Barone Sea region of Central Europe, and the middle section of the country where the war is ongoing, and even All kinds of people from the Feshan and Istan regions have gathered on this land. A powerful empire spanning two continents, ruling a population of 200 million, and a multi-ethnic coexistence has been formed. All that is needed is the process of digestion and absorption. It cannot be completed in a short time, but as time goes by, the dazzling brilliance of the Northern Hero of the Empire is attracting the attention of the whole world.

In front of the scenic Wayatu Castle and Villa, a black carriage stopped. Sokutu Stellan got out of the carriage with her skirts in hand. Opposite the castle and villa, two people in black robes had been waiting there for a long time. , one of them took out a drawing from his pocket and looked at it Sokutus Stellan, who got off the car, looked at it and said to another person, "Lord Vakalando, it should be her! One of the most mysterious deacons of the Business Alliance, I always thought this was a rumor, no Thinking that this woman really exists!" He said in a rather emotional tone.

"Confirmed to be the target person?

"Sokutus Stellan, nicknamed Dark Rose, is said to have some unclear relationship with the upper echelons of the empire,"

"Okay, in front of our Imperial Supervision Department, all this is useless. We are only responsible to His Majesty the Emperor, and no one else will be considered!" Another person took the pictures and compared them, with a cold face and golden hair paired with a picture The cold and proud face, the straight and handsome nose and lips are the artistic masterpieces of Yuan Ruo, a famous ancient carving craftsman. The broad robe on his body was blown up by the wind, revealing the black uniform with silver and white cuffs underneath. On his right arm were the words "Inspection Department", which was the uniform of the Inspection Department that was feared throughout the empire.

The person who came was Vakalando, a deputy minister of the Northern Supervision Department of Congo. If it weren’t for the fact that Sokutusdai was the thirteenth deacon of the Business Alliance and had connections with the upper echelons of the empire, this always cold Vakalando The deputy minister had already sent someone to take the person away, but he waited here for a full two hours. "Lord Vacalando, do we need to go now?" the subordinate asked cautiously.

"Why. Didn't you hear what I just said, or do you want to wait until she comes back from shopping again? Are you kidding me? The Supervision Department needs to consider so much when doing business!"

Vakalando snorted with a cold face,

Just when he was about to take out his identity card from the Supervision Department with one hand, his cold eyes suddenly widened and his whole body froze.

I saw another person coming down from the carriage. His slightly fat figure made this young man look a bit honest. The young man held Sokutus Dailan's hand in one hand.

"Oh my God!" Vakarando, who looked arrogant just now, shuddered, sweat broke out, and his lips trembled. As a deputy director of the Supervision Department, how could he not recognize the young man in front of him? Who, Your Majesty, why is Your Majesty here! The young man glanced here slightly, and his eyes suddenly became as sharp as an eagle's, glowing with light like a cold sword, which almost scared him to the point of paralysis!
