After hearing what the man in black said, Sebor frowned and tapped the side of his thigh with his fingers.
"Yes, don't worry, big brother. I will personally escort this batch of goods!"
The man agreed in a firm tone.
"This time, I, your eldest brother, made a big bet. If I win, we brothers will have a good time and go one step further. If I lose..."
Plorlik stopped talking halfway through his words. If he really lost the bet this time, he might even lose his life, so there was no need to say more.
"Brother, we brothers have been following you for so many years and have been through all the ups and downs. We have encountered so many dangers in such a dangerous place outside the domain. If it were someone else, they would have died long ago, but we have been able to get through it safely every time, so I believe that this time, we can still win!"
The man bowed and then stepped back to select people to escort the goods.
They were all originally members of Plorik's team and had been through life and death with Plorik. After Plorik became successful, he naturally promoted them all and placed them in the most critical positions.
These people can be said to be Plorik's confidants and his team.
What made him particularly happy was that the brothers in the team did not slack off just because they were in high positions, and the skills they had acquired outside the domain were still there!
"There must be no mistakes."
Plorik slowly clenched his hands into fists.
"Stop! Everyone, stop! Who on earth told you to secretly move the items from the Garp Chamber of Commerce?! You are so bold!"
Unfortunately, the more you fear something, the more it will come. Just when the moving work was going smoothly, a man suddenly rushed in from outside with a few people. When he saw the scene in front of him, he immediately asked all the workers to put down their work.
Under the man's scolding, the porters reluctantly put down the goods in their hands, not knowing what to do for a moment.
"Who's in charge here? Come and see me!"
The man then began to shout loudly, looking very arrogant.
"It's Bruce?"
Seeing the man with black politeness below, Plorik frowned slightly.
Bruce has never gotten along well with me. When he was a traveling merchant, he offended him because of an order from outside the territory, so this guy has been targeting me.
When he first traded with the Yas Village and took Lady Elina to the Yasheng Fortress, it was this Bruce who received him.
It is said that he was interrogated in various ways during the reception. If Lady Elena had not ignored him, Plorik would never have been able to succeed.
I originally thought that after I was promoted to minister, I would be able to end the feud between the two of them, but as luck would have it, this guy actually became a supervisor.
Supervision, as the name suggests, is to monitor all circumstances of Karp's shipments. Even if he is a minister, he has no right to touch him.
It is indeed the guy's duty to come and ask about this today.
But this guy had already defected to Cyber. If he knew that this batch of goods was shipped to Yas City, he would definitely try his best to stop it, and eventually it would become known to everyone.
By then, Plorlik will definitely have no good days.
"Where are the people? Are they all deaf?! I'll ask the person in charge here to come see me!"
Just as Plorlik was thinking about what to do, Bruce found that no one had been paying attention to him and he suddenly got angry.
"Lord Bruce, this batch of goods is urgently needed by the foreign army, so I am personally responsible for it. I am really sorry for not informing you. So, after this batch of goods is delivered, I will come to your door to apologize, how about that?"
Plorik's voice came from far away, and soon he appeared in front of Bruce from the darkness.
"Minister Plolik?"
Bruce's eyes narrowed slightly when he saw the person in front of him.
"I'm sorry, Minister Plolik. I didn't know the Border Army actually had such an order. Since it's an order from the Border Army, I have to check the cargo information. Otherwise, if there's any mistake, neither you nor I will be able to explain it."
Bruce sneered. His intuition told him that this matter was far from as simple as Plorrick said.
"Can't you be flexible? As you know, it takes a long time to check the information..."
Prolik wanted to use words to make Bruce give up the idea of checking, but before he could finish his words, Bruce raised his hand to stop him.
"Don't say any more. Rules are rules. I can't bend on this."
Bruce's attitude was very tough. The more Plorlik said so, the more he was convinced that there was definitely something wrong with this batch of goods. This might very well be a great opportunity to bring Plorlik down, and he couldn't let it go!
But what Bruce didn't realize was that not far away from him, many professionals were slowly surrounding him.
"Is there really no room for negotiation?"
Plorik had a gloomy face, his tone was full of threats, and his eyes were filled with the madness of a gambler.
"no!"
Facing Prolik's threat, Bruce sneered. He didn't believe that this guy dared to do anything to him, the supervisor.
"In that case, don't blame me, just catch him!!!"
Following Plorik's order, more than a dozen figures immediately rushed out from the surroundings and completely controlled Bruce and his men in the first moment.
"Plorik, you're crazy!!"
Bruce, who was tied up, looked at Plorrik in disbelief. He couldn't believe that this guy actually dared to do such an extremely dangerous thing.
Chapter 13: You can only use it, not make friends with it
"Plorik! What are you doing?! Are you crazy? I'm the inspector! You have no right to detain me!!"
Bruce roared as he struggled.
He really didn't expect that this Plorlik would do such a crazy thing.
In the Cap Chamber of Commerce, there are very strict regulations, that is, the minister is absolutely not allowed to take action against the supervisors of the regional branches. Once he does, it basically means the end of his term as minister.
This is also the reason why Bruce dared to be so rampant in front of Plorlik with only a few people.
Unfortunately, his wishful thinking was wrong this time.
"Take them away! Provide them with good food and drink, and do not allow them to leave the warehouse for three days!"
There was a crazy look in Plorlik's eyes. He had a gambler's character in his nature, and this time he was making another big bet.
"Yes!"
The professionals who were holding Bruce agreed and took them away with their hands tied up.
"Plorik! You are dead! You detained the inspector without any reason and sent the goods at will! You are dead! I will definitely sue you when I get out!!"
Bruce, who was dragged away, was still roaring, his face was ferocious and full of anger.
This time, Plorlik had completely broken off relations with him.
But he was not afraid, because at this moment Plorlik had completely trampled on the rules of the Cap Chamber of Commerce, and someone would naturally take care of him in the future.
After this happened, the workers in the warehouse were all confused. They didn't know what had happened between the two of them, and how a minister could have come to such a point with the inspector.
"Keep loading!!"
Seeing the idle workers, Plorik roared and turned away. As for Bruce's roar, he simply ignored it.
Now that things have come to this, there is no going back and we can only go down this path until the end.
Now, all his hopes rested on Elena.
Lady Elina, what's going on there? You must make it happen.
As Plorlik walked, he clenched his fists, with such great force that his joints even turned white.
"Brother, are we still shipping according to the planned time?"
Just then, the man in black stood behind Plorlik and asked.
"Ship according to the original plan. No changes are allowed even for a minute!"
Plorik waved his hand and returned to his original position.
At three o'clock in the morning of the next day, all the goods were loaded and headed towards the gate of the Yasheng Fortress.
This batch of goods included supplies and weapons that Yas City had urgently needed, as well as a handwritten letter from Plorik.
The caravan escorting these things has passes issued by the Cap Chamber of Commerce, and will have unimpeded access throughout the Sub-Saint Fortress and the human sphere of influence outside the domain.
Therefore, these goods will be delivered to the hands of Gary, the village chief of Yas City, as quickly as possible.
Finally sent away.
Looking at the caravan that had already set off, Plorik sat weakly on the chair.
He closed his eyes for a while, then stood up again and rushed directly to the hotel where Elena was staying.
Today, in order to deliver this batch of goods to Yas City, he has completely messed up. If no one has supported him, his end will definitely not be good.
······
"Mmm~ah~I slept so comfortably."
The next morning, Elina slept until she woke up naturally. She sat on the bed and stretched. After taking a look at Lamia who was still motionless, she shook her head helplessly and went to wash up.
Ever since Margaret's servants moved in, she no longer stayed in Elena's room.
As for the students from Class D who were brought here, Elena gave them a few days of vacation. Now they should be being taken around by their host Brady.
After all, the Sub-Saint Fortress is not small. If you really want to go around it, it will take a lot of time.
It just so happened that she had some things to deal with here, so she decided to wait until all the things were dealt with before continuing teaching.
I guess the matter with Ai Mingma Qia should have been almost dealt with by now.
After Elina finished washing up, she walked downstairs while thinking.
"Elena, you're awake. Good morning."
As soon as Elina walked downstairs, she saw Margaret sitting at the dining table with a smile on her face. The table was filled with various delicious dishes.
Now that she has servants to serve her, Margaret naturally doesn't need to prepare breakfast herself.
Of course, the breakfast prepared by the servants was too sumptuous for the two of them to finish.
"Morning, Margaret."
Elina randomly chose a seat and sat down, yawned, then picked up a piece of bread and started spreading jam on it.
Not long after she finished eating a piece of bread, a maid came in.
She leaned over and whispered in Elina's ear:
"Lady Elina, there is a man outside who calls himself Plorlik and wants to see you. He has been waiting for several hours. Please..."
"Well, let him in."
In response, Elina nodded and indicated that Plorrik could be let in.
"Plorlik?"
Margaret tilted her head curiously, she had never heard of this person's name before.
"This person is the director of the Sub-Saint Branch of the Cap Chamber of Commerce. He is now working for me."
Elina said with a smile.
"Oh."
After listening, Margaret nodded and said nothing more. After all, there was no need for her to ask about such matters.
"Lady Elina."
Not long after, a deep voice sounded outside the restaurant door.
Looking at the man in front of her, Elina really didn't dare to associate him with the head of the Garp branch who was so high-spirited a few days ago.
This guy had a messy hair, bloodshot eyes, and unsteady steps. If Elena hadn't known him, she would have thought he was a drug addict.
"Plorik, how are you doing with what I asked you to do?"
Alina picked up the knife and spread jam on the toast without even raising her eyelids.
If it weren't for what happened at the dinner that day, Alina would have been very enthusiastic towards Plorlik and even invited him to sit down and have breakfast with her.
But after that incident, he realized that this person could only be used and he could never be a close friend to him.
After hearing what Elina said, Plorik glanced at Margaret next to him. After realizing that Elina had no intention of letting her leave, he half-knelt on the ground and said respectfully:
"Everything has been done, and the goods have been shipped, but... I have detained Inspector Bruce because of this matter."
Plorik hesitated for a long time, and finally chose to tell this matter, because now, only Elena could help him.
