The Mysterious World Under Steampunk

Chapter 418: The small stage of Port Saite

The medical school was withdrawn from power by all countries, which was completely expected by Leo. When he was in France, he had already felt some restrictions on medical schools in the French Empire and the United Kingdom, but those measures were more It is still soft, for example, to use cooperation as an excuse to participate in some things in the medical school and take advantage of the opportunity to reclaim some of the powers that were handed over to the medical school in the past.

It’s just that all countries like the present are ruthlessly attacking the medical school almost at the same time. They suddenly knocked the medical school from the largest non-state force on the Weilun mainland to the bottom. And from all the signs, the governments of various countries seem to They are not ready to end this. They seem to be prepared to completely divide the various resources accumulated by the medical school for so many years. It can be seen from the beginning of the establishment of national medical schools belonging to their own countries by governments of various countries and the recruitment of talents from medical schools.

   Leo’s sense of Wei Lun Medical School is not too good, although he has several friends who are members of the medical school, and even there are many important members.

Because he can see that the current Wei Lun Medical College is really too large, so large that the dean of the medical school can’t control such a huge non-state power. There are many factions inside the medical school, and the power struggle is extremely serious. It happened from the city of Milia. The facts can be seen in the chaos of the factions within the medical school.

In addition to the two major events of the Great Plague of Milia and the medical school being supervised by various countries, it is the most sensational event in Velen in the past six months. The sensation of this incident far exceeded the other two.

This is the expedition led by the old man Rembrandt. He discovered a monument in the depths of the wasteland. According to the information obtained by the study, this monument appeared far longer than the earliest monument discovered in the Weilun world, directly moving the civilization time forward. It has been pushed for more than 30,000 years, which is longer than the current recorded history of Wei Lun.

  As soon as the news was received, the highest academies in various countries formed a team to send scholars to Mosang mainland to participate in the excavation of the monument.

However, there are some people who are faster than the highest colleges in various countries. These people are adventurers and treasure hunters in various countries. For them, the appearance of each monument represents a lot of wealth, so now this The monuments of prehistoric civilization are a completely open gold mine in their eyes. What they have to do is to steal valuable things from the monuments as much as possible before the governments of all countries start their actions. Anything in those things may make them a lifetime Worry-free.

   When referring to these adventurers and treasure hunters, the look on the old seagull's face was not very good, obviously worrying for the old Rembrandt.

Prior to this, he sent three batches of adventurers and treasure hunters who are very famous in Velen to Mosang. These adventurers are all veterans, and his experience is not difficult to see that these people have more than one life on hand. .

Although the old Rembrandt was willing to move around without protection, he was still worried about the old Rembrandt. For this reason, he even violated his own rules. After sending those people to the place, he secretly reported the whereabouts of these people. It is sent to the elderly Rembrandt through special channels, so that the elderly can be prepared.

When he heard this, Leo was not worried about the old Rembrandt. He knew the power behind Old Rembrandt better than the old seagull. He also knew that there would be strong supernatural powers around Old Man Rembrandt. As long as you don’t encounter the existence of that mythological level, I believe that the strength of Elmbrandt’s old man can safely pass through any danger.

Leo was concerned about the monument discovered by the old man Rembrandt. Although he hadn’t seen the monument yet, he could feel that the monument might have something to do with the Veja people, and he couldn’t help but feel impulsive. Go to Mosang mainland.

But in the end, Leo still pressed the urge in his heart and decided to go to Port Saite to rest for a period of time according to the original plan. By the way, he received the property that should have been in his hands. So he asked the old seagull: "You are done with supplies. In the future, will you be able to send me to Port Saite? As for the fare, I will use this instead."

Speaking of words, he directly took a high-energy substance from psionic creatures from his storage space. The normal state of this high-energy substance is ruby, and the color is very gorgeous, which looks more than ordinary gems. better.

The old seagull wondered where the gem in Leo’s hand came from, but instead of picking up this high-energy substance, he stood up and said with a smile: "Since you are a student of Mr. Rembrandt, then it is also considered My friend, my friend doesn’t need to pay for my boat. So you have a good rest! You can arrive at Port Sait tomorrow."

  After speaking, the old seagull went out and closed the door. The sound of footsteps going away soon disappeared from the outside of the partition.

Leo put things back in the storage space, and then lay down on the bed, thinking nothing, neither thinking about his body, nor the monuments discovered by the old man Rembrandt, he completely vented his spirits, let himself Fall into deep sleep.

As usual, when the Port of Sete just lighted up on that day, noisy noises appeared in the dock area. At this time, the night fishing boats slowly drove into their specific dock to carry a box of fish on the ship to Among the warehouses built on the wharf, the fish merchants who had been waiting here for a long time were trading directly in the warehouse, and various quotations sounded in the warehouse, which was very lively.

Buffalo is the person in charge of this fishing pier. Every morning, he will go back and forth at the fishing pier in his charge like a lord patrolling the territory. Although he does not need to do it by himself, he only needs to tell the people to do it. That's fine, but he still does this every day without rain.

This is not because of how much he loves his job, nor because he has a sense of responsibility, but because he enjoys the awe of those fishing boat owners who look at themselves, of course, in addition to those who have fallen into their pockets Little guys.

Although he is the person in charge of the fishing pier, in addition to the fixed salary given to him by the municipal government every month, he also has a variety of income from the pier’s income. The bottom kind.

  However, in the recent period, he has a lot of places where he needs to spend money, mainly because he has received news that the wharf that the old octopus masters has to choose the person in charge.

The old octopus is an old man in the dock area of ​​Port Saite. He had been working here when there were only three freight terminals in the quay area. After the expansion of the quay area, the old octopus gained his virtue of his qualifications and years of business contacts. The management right of the largest freight terminal in the wharf area was also controlled, and the warehouses in that area were also in charge.

It is also because of the pier area as the foundation, coupled with the continuous financial support from the pier, making the old octopus gradually become one of the powerful figures in Port Saite. Not long ago, he was awarded the knighthood. Became a noble.

Maybe it’s because I’ve made enough money from the quayside, and the old octopus also had the idea of ​​retirement not long ago, and I have mentioned it in some public places, but no one would believe that the old octopus would give up this gold mine. Soon after the old octopus submitted a retirement application to the city hall, all the talents realized that the old octopus really wanted to retire, and also heard that the old octopus had bought a manor in his hometown, and was prepared to recuperate there after retirement. Every day.

The retirement of the old octopus caused some volatility in the upper berth of Port Saite, but this volatility quickly subsided. For those power figures in the upper berth of Port Saite, they just lost one capable man. The real shock was At the bottom forces of the Port of Saite, after receiving the news, their sights all coincided with the area of ​​the large cargo terminal controlled by the old octopus. Everyone knows that as long as they master the terminal, the controller is the new Old octopus.

Although Bafo was not the first to know the news, he was the first to respond. He quickly found some big figures that could influence the final decision, through the human feelings and large sums of money left over before. Gained some advantages. He has received news that his name has been added to the list of candidates.

   It's just that even if he took the lead, he is not without competitors. In fact, several of his opponents are very strong, so he has to be careful.

For example, Cass Langton, the owner of Langton Hotel, although Cass Langton is a hotel owner, secretly he is one of the leaders of the Port of Sete gang. Through the hotel, he attracted some municipal officials , Let him have extraordinary power in Port Saite.

   It's just that no matter how powerful he is, he is still just a hotel owner and a gang leader. He is still far away from the real powerful figures, and now there is an opportunity for him to be promoted to the ranks of powerful figures, and he will naturally not let go.

  Although it has been a long time since Cass Langton received the news, he was strong and by catching the support of officials, he also caught up with the last train of the shortlist.

In addition, there is a strong enemy terminal tax officer Jim Langton. Jim Langton’s work experience and ability are not afraid, but he has a very strong identity background. member.

Although the Langton family has no right to speak in the Docklands, it is, after all, one of the powerhouses of Port Said, and its influence is still there. Since Jim Langton was included in the candidate list without any warning, It can be seen.

   For the well-regarded Bafo, whether it is Cass Langton or Jim Langton is very good to deal with, he has already prepared a method to deal with the two.

   In fact, the method is also very simple. For example, Cass Longton’s gangster background is his most fatal weakness. As long as some gang fights are triggered at a specific time, then the powers of Port Sait will think about it.

  As for Jim Langton to deal with it better, the Langton family is indeed one of the esteemed families in Port Sait, but the esteemed family in Port Sait is not only the Langton family.

  According to some gossip, the Langton family's strong move to put its family members on the shortlist has caused dissatisfaction among other families in Port Sait.

The dock area is the core area of ​​the Port of Saite. In order to compete for control of the dock area, various families fought and caused some unnecessary casualties. In the end, no one gained control of the dock area. Instead, the dock area became the default. The Le Neutral Zone is managed by people who do not belong to any family.

When the Langton family pushed the family members into the post of tax clerk of the terminal, they already crossed the default line, but the Langton family was fully prepared and attracted the support of the vast majority of people, plus the tax officer of a terminal This kind of small position will not have a big impact on the dock area, so let this thing pass.

But now the Langton family actually wants to push family members to the position of manager of the large freight terminal area, which is almost equivalent to the Langton family's intention to control the entire terminal area. This is the most important for other powerful families in Port Said Unwilling to see.

In recent years, the influence of the Langdon family in Seth Port has expanded rapidly, and it is almost approaching the first family of Seth Port, and then let him gain control of the dock area. Then the power of the Langton family in Seth Port Will expand to the point where no one can control it.

Anyone with a bit of a brain can see this, so Jim Langton is the least likely to get that position, but to ensure that there will be no accidents, he has prepared a large for Jim Langton. Meals, regardless of whether Jim Langton eats that big meal, will be kicked out.

Cass Langton and Jim Langton may be the most threatening people in terms of background strength, but the most feared opponents of Barford are not the two of them. He thinks the greatest threat to himself is the dock warehouse management. Jason.

As far as the background is concerned, Jason is the most inconspicuous of all candidates~www.wuxiahere.com~ He has a humble origin and no surname, the only thing commendable is his veteran status and the royal family he obtained medal.

It stands to reason that it is impossible for such a person to become the manager of the warehouse in the quayside, but such an incredible thing happened, and what Baffer could not even imagine is that Jason has also formed a dock porters union, which will The porters gathered at the dock to form a great force, even the gangsters in the city did not dare to provoke the forces.

Because Jason appeared so strangely, Barford and other curious people also tried to inquire about some news. Only then did he find that Jason was actually with Port Setter upstart Dr. Nelson Matthew and Catherine Nightingale Ladies are good friends, and they are the kind of friends who will eat at each other's home on holidays.

   Dr. Nelson Matthew is nothing. Although he is a member of the municipal council, basically he is not responsible for specific things, but only acts as an observer of the council, and has limited influence on the freight terminal.

But Ms. Catherine Nightingale is different. She is called Ms. Lantern. She has an extraordinary reputation in the Port of Seth, and even the entire English kingdom. Not long ago, she was one of the eleven countries in Velun. At the invitation of the head of state and the king, special nursing colleges were established in various countries, and the prestige is far more than any one in Port Saite. Even if the powerhouse of Port Saite sees this lady, she must lower her posture.

If such a big man really supports someone to become the person in charge of the freight terminal, the dignitaries in the Port of Sait will not object to this matter. Instead, they will actively help Jason in order to narrow the relationship with this lady. Get that position.

  Buddha thought of this, his head started to hurt.
