I didn't expect the Imperial Concubine Mariana I adore to have such a side to her. After being silent for an unknown amount of time, Cornelia drained the red wine in her goblet in one gulp and said with a blurred expression.
It was very normal. Being in the imperial family, especially the women in the harem, how many of them were really innocent? Sei Itō who was playing games on his laptop said without raising his head. Not to mention the Imperial Concubine Mariana who shined on the battlefield. If she didn't have a scheming mind and only relied on her bravery, she would have died on the battlefield. She wouldn't have become the Emperor's woman.
Cornelia didn't refute and only sighed deeply.
Your Highness, Knight Marde is here. At this time, the maid Liz walked to Cornelia's side and said in a low voice.
I know. Cornelia handed the wine glass to Liz and nodded.
A moment later, Marde, dressed in a red Britannia uniform, came in and bowed to Cornelia, who was sitting on the sofa. "Your Highness," Marde said.
Greetings, Knight Marde. Cornelia nodded and replied.
Your Highness, this is the detailed information you requested about the various industries in the country. Marde straightened his half-bent right arm and handed over a stack of documents to Cornelia.
You've worked hard. Cornelia took the information and said in a praising tone.
It's my honor to be of service to Your Highness. Marde put his right hand on his chest and slightly leaned forward, saying respectfully. Then he consciously retreated to the side and waited.
Take a look. Cornelia didn't look at the information in her hand and directly handed it to Sei Itō.
You're really fast. I thought I would get it tomorrow. Sei Itō moved the laptop from his lap and slightly raised his body from the sofa. He took the information from Cornelia and sat down again. He naturally crossed one leg over the other and looked at the information in his hand with a comfortable posture. (Just read a novel.)
But I have a question. Have you thought about how to deal with it? Sei Itō carefully looked at the information in his hand about the factory's location, area, production line, production capacity, products, employees, capital, and other information.
What was the problem? Cornelia said.
The problem of the workers. Sei Itō said, "You know how I accept. Can you handle anything related to the workers, such as family members?
Cornelia raised an eyebrow when she heard this. This was also what gave her the biggest headache at the moment. However, who asked her to agree to it without knowing the reason? This was not like dealing with an enemy, where she could casually break an agreement without caring about the consequences. Cornelia, who couldn't come up with a solution, had no choice but to tell him the truth. If we follow your method, I really can't think of a way to solve the workers' problem. I don't know if you have any ideas.
So you don't have a solution either. Sei Itō raised his head and looked at Cornelia in surprise. He then continued to flip through the documents in his hand. "I saw that you didn't tell me about it, so I thought you already had a solution.
But since you can't solve the problem through normal means, I can only use my unconventional way to solve the problem. Sei Itō said indifferently.
What are you going to do? Cornelia asked with a frown.
Same old method. Rob. Sei Itō said casually, "When the time comes, you just need to send someone to send me to the location of the factory I choose. Then I will use my method to take over the factory and the workers. You see how simple it is.
This isn't EU. You will cause panic if you do that. " Cornelia said.
Then what do you think we should do? Sei Itō raised his head and looked at Cornelia. After waiting for a long time and seeing that Cornelia didn't reply, he continued, "You see, you don't have a solution either, right?
Also, does it have anything to do with me whether this is EU or not? Don't forget, I'm not from Britannia. " [* Leisure] Ito Sei once again looked at the information. He flipped through them.
You! Cornelia's face was filled with anger. But she immediately put it away. Then she suddenly stood up from the sofa and turned around to walk to her bedroom.
Sei Itō saw a dark red figure walk past him from the corner of his eyes. His lowered face flashed with an unknown sneer.
Time quickly passed by as Sei Itō quietly flipped through the documents …
Well, late at night, Ito Sei, who had been reading all night, finally finished reading the thick materials in his hands before getting up from the sofa. He stretched his back and moved his stiff body.
He finally finished. After stretching his back. Sei Itō sat back down on the sofa and picked up the thick documents in his hands. He followed the page numbers in his memory. He took out more than 20 pages of papers with the information of the factories he liked from the whole book and bound them together. Then, he picked up the newly bound book and said with satisfaction.
Then he put away the new documents and picked up the laptop that had a black screen. He turned around and went to the second floor to rest in his room.
He slept soundly through the night without any dreams until dawn.
The next morning, after eating breakfast with Cornelia, Sei Itō stopped Cornelia who was about to leave. "Arrange a person and a car for me. If possible, I also want a plane."
"Okay." Cornelia knew what Sei Itō was going to do from the things that Sei Itō wanted. She frowned and agreed. Then she turned to the maid Liz and said, "Get Guildford."
yes，mylord。 The maid, Liz, covered her lower abdomen with her hands and slightly leaned forward to salute. Then, she walked to the side and grabbed the gold-wrapped dial (the old-fashioned kind, with numbers written on the front of the phone and a big circle with ten small round holes on the number for dialing) and dialed it.
"Hello." Soon, Guildford's voice came from the phone.
Guildford. Cornelia took the microphone from Liz and said, "Prepare a car and a private plane. Arrange for two pilots to be on standby. Then she called Marde to come to the mansion to pick up Sei Itō."
yes，mylord。 Guildford replied from the other side of the phone.
Then she handed the microphone back to the maid Liz and told her to put it back. She turned to Sei Itō and said, "Knight Marde will come to pick you up. He will stay by your side for the next few days. If you need anything, just call him."
"Okay." Sei Itō nodded.
"Good luck." Cornelia politely gave her blessing and turned to leave the mansion.
Half an hour later, Marde in military uniform arrived at Cornelia's mansion and met up with Sei Itō. Then the two of them didn't talk nonsense and immediately left the mansion to start their journey.
Their first destination was located in the outskirts of the capital of the Britannia Empire. It was a machine manufacturing factory that had been built for a hundred years and occupied an area of more than two thousand acres. The factory mainly produced some military components and civil machinery. It could be considered a semi-military and semi-private enterprise. The owner behind it was the most active noble family in Mariana's era, the Ashford Family.
Three hours later, Sei Itō's car finally arrived in the vicinity of the factory. As soon as he got off the car, he could see a huge steel building erected in the middle of a large paddy field. The rumbling sounds of machinery could be faintly heard even from here.
"You guys stay here." Ito Sei turned his head and said to Marde, who was standing behind him.
"Okay." Marde nodded in agreement. In any case, he was ordered to follow Sei Itō's arrangements. Since the other party wanted him to stay here, he might as well stay here.
Sei Itō nodded and stepped into the paddy field. Then he ran in a straight line toward the factory in the distance.
I say, Marde, what is this guy trying to do? At this time, the driver came out from the driver's seat and looked at Sei Itō's back in the distance.
I don't know, but since Her Highness Cornelia told us to follow him, we will follow him. As for what he wants to do, we don't need to care. Ma De crossed his arms in front of his chest and leaned against the car door.
That's true. The driver nodded and then looked at Marde with a gossipy expression. "Oh right, I heard that you and that thorny rose, Justine, have been intimate recently. Is that true?
Where did you hear it from? " Marde's expression stiffened and he turned to stare at the driver.
Looks like it's true. You're really something. You even dared to make a move on that thorny rose. Aren't you afraid of being pricked? The driver said with a mocking smile.
Justine isn't as hard to get along with as you say. She's a very nice person. Marde rolled his eyes and said.
I say, Marde, you're changing sides too quickly. If I remember correctly, you were the one who gave her the nickname of thorny rose. The driver said with disdain.
Did I? How come I don't remember? Marde pretended to be innocent and said.
Looks like I'll find a chance to find Mara and have her reveal your true colors. The driver said with a sinister smile.
I say, Cook, you... Marde was about to say something to Cook, but he immediately noticed that Cook's expression wasn't right. He immediately followed Cook's gaze, only to see that the huge steel building that originally stood on the ground had completely disappeared. Only the empty land was left as proof of its existence.
Oh my god … Marde's expression instantly changed to that of Cook's. He was dumbstruck and unconsciously said.
At this time, a black shadow quickly passed through the vast paddy field. It crossed a large distance at an extremely fast speed and arrived in front of the dumbstruck Marde and Cook in the blink of an eye. Then, without saying a word, it entered the car door.
