Chapter 1599: Guests From The Empire

“Father, how did it go with Sir Dominic?” Jonah asked Bowen, who was sitting opposite him in the horse-drawn carriage.

“Heh. That old thing can be settled with women and money.” Bowen pressed his lips together in disdain. “However, he asked for 30%, and he wants cash. When we get back, we have to calculate the value of these properties, and prepare the money to exchange for the official ruling at the Department of Property Rights tomorrow morning.”

“We’ve done a rough gauge previously. Those properties are worth around one billion copper coins. Sir Dominic is really asking for a lot this time,” Jonah said with a frown.

“Bennett’s case is a little complicated. We might be implicated if we’re not careful. If we can settle this without loopholes legally, these properties will naturally belong to us.” Bennett smiled. He looked at Jonah, and said, “This is called spending to dispel trouble. It can’t be prevented. Besides, Dominic will be on the same boat with us once he takes the money. If anything happened in the future, he would also have to settle it for us.”

Jonah nodded thoughtfully. Sir Dominic was a high-ranking official in the city lord’s castle. Moreover, he had direct authority over property rights issues. With the letter from him, this issue would be most likely settled.

Although they had to fork out an extra 300,000,000, it also meant that they would have secured 700,000,000. No wonder Father was so calm.

“Father, what about that hot pot restaurant?” Jonah asked.

“Of course it will be part of the properties we are reclaiming. Dominic can get 8,000,000 copper coins from that shop. He won’t just let that slip by,” Bowen said with a smile.

Jonah hesitated for a while, and said, “But Father, that hot pot restaurant might have something to do with the Gray Temple. I think it will be better if we don’t fight for the owners.h.i.+p of the hot pot restaurant first, and wait for Bennett’s case to be closed. After we’re clear about all his charges and how Miss Rena got the restaurant, we can then decide what to do.”

“Jonah, to be the master of the house, you need to be ambitious.” Bowen looked at Jonah, and seriously said, “The Department of Property Rights has complete authority over property rights issues. What business does the Gray Temple have there? If you’re still hesitant over something that is already in the bag, how can you lead the entire family?”

“Yes,” Jonah answered as he lowered his head. Although he still had his doubts, he did not wish to argue further.

In Chaos City, the city lord’s castle was in charge of administrative issues, while the Gray Temple was in charge of crime and security. Normally, the Gray Temple would not interfere with administrative issues.

However, Jonah was still worried. He could not help but think of the owner of Mamy Restaurant. He felt that things might not be settled so easily.

Rodu. At the palace’s royal flying steed landing ground.

Sean stood in front of a giant golden eagle, and looked at the tens of people who would be following him on this trip. He loudly said, “On this trip, all of you will join me to visit Chaos City as representatives of the empire. I hope that all of you can complete the mission that His Majesty has given to us.”

Of these people, half of them came from the military, with two of them being 10th-tier powerhouses, while the other half were from the academic side, being in charge of liaising issues. In addition, there was also a team of magic casters from the Magus Tower led by Brent and Elliot.

Sean was also unable to understand why his father wanted to send two of their great magic casters along. After all, Josh had been running the Magus Tower for years, so Sean was a little confused as to why his father wanted him to bring two great magic casters to Chaos City.

However, it was nothing bad for him. Josh should be the one who was perplexed.

Everyone answered Sean respectfully with a smile, and got on board the giant golden eagle before they set off for Chaos City.

It was a tradition in the Norland Continent for different races to visit other races and areas. Other than a few races that had broken all bilateral relations, the other races still visited each other as a form of sustaining their friends.h.i.+p.

However, it was never on such a grand scale like this, with the first prince personally leading a team consisting of two 10th-tier knights and two great magic casters.

Everyone could roughly guess something. After all, Alex had been appearing in Chaos City frequently, and his relations.h.i.+p with the empire had also been quite ambiguous. It was only right to be on the safe side in order to protect the first prince.

“Today, the Roth Empire representative team will visit Chaos City. The team is led by the Roth Empire’s first prince, and there will also be two 10th-tier knights and two great magic casters. This is the strongest team that they have sent for a visit in the recent 10 years. We have to do a good job hosting them to show them our hospitality…” Chaos City’s Department of Foreign Affairs had already begun working on hosting the team. They would still need to schedule the city lord’s itinerary so that he would have time to meet the Roth Empire’s representative team.

“The representative team Andre arranged is a little abnormal this time. Looks like he’s still worried that Alex would do something to Sean,” Michael said with a smile as he read the report Dicus sent over.

“Princess Vanessa and Duke Abraham are also in Chaos City. Other than their regular visit, the Roth Empire representative team is also here to fetch Princess Vanessa back. This princess is much loved by King Andre. I suppose that’s also why he sent two great magic casters,” Dicus replied with a smile.

“Speaking of which, Princess Vanessa is a fan of Mamy Restaurant. I wonder if Sean will be able to bring her back,” Michael smiled ambiguously.

“Perhaps he would get addicted too,” Dicus said.

When Mag returned to the restaurant, he stopped by Rena’s hot pot restaurant on the way. There were tens of elves renovating the place.

Amidst the glittering gold, there were greens, and that made the place seem a little less lavish and a little more natural and refres.h.i.+ng. That made the hot pot restaurant even more suitable for customers with lower to middle spending power.

Choosing an elf carpenter was a very good decision. Mag nodded with satisfaction.

“Boss, you’re here.” Rena came down from the second floor, and saw Mag standing in the middle of the main hall. She quickly went up to welcome him.

“Mm-hmm. I just finished dealing with some matters, so I dropped by to take a look.” Mag nodded, and praised, “The renovation is looking good.”

“They are all very outstanding carpenters. The outcome was above my expectations.” Rena nodded. She was having quite a headache over the large areas of gold, but after the elves’ transformation, the hot pot restaurant now looked way better than she had expected.

“Right, Boss Mag, my first version of the hot pot soup base is almost done. Can you give it a try?” Rena looked at Mag expectantly.

“Oh? You’re already done with the first version?” Mag was a little surprised when he heard that. He quickly nodded with a smile, and said, “Of course, I am willing to give it a try. Are we going back to the restaurant to try, or are we tasting it here?”

“I’ve already started using the kitchen upstairs. I’m already done making the first version of the two soup bases. I just need you to go up with me.” Rena led Mag upstairs.
