Not far from the port, there is a high slope. Because of the open terrain, the scenery is beautiful. There are many battleship masts in the distance, which is unique and charming, so many teahouses and shops were built here. The colorful parasols on the snow-white slopes are really beautiful and become a very unique scenery of Snow City. Many local dignitaries like to take a nap here when they have nothing to do, drink tea, taste snacks, and spend a leisurely and pleasant afternoon.
Under a parasol on a high slope, a group of people were leisurely drinking tea and eating this snack. These people were all dressed in fine clothes, and they were obviously of extraordinary origins.
"Brother Qiu is still smarter." Claudia's eyes were as charming as silk, and her voice was so sweet that it touched people's hearts. She was wearing a long white dress and was extremely beautiful. She wore a dazzling diamond necklace on her slender white neck, which added a bit of nobility and grace.
The neck ring just covered the bruises on her neck.
The man known as Brother Qiu had a handsome appearance and an extraordinary demeanor. He smiled casually and said: "It can only add a little trouble to him and add obstacles to him, but it has no real effect."
Although he likes Claudia quite a lot, he is not just a playboy who only knows how to eat, drink and have fun. During this critical period, he should try to avoid getting into trouble as much as possible. Naturally, the Macefield Chamber of Commerce was not taken seriously by him. When Claudia begged him, it was hard for him to shirk her, but he was not stupid enough to confront her head-on.
Coming from a top-notch family, he knows very well that fighting fiercely and showing off his courage is just a very low-level method in the upper class.
Just like today, he used a merchant ship to block the entrance to the port, which was very clever. So what if there are gold-level battleships? With an ordinary merchant ship, the Macefield Chamber of Commerce could only suffer this dumb loss. In the world of famous families, a gold-class battleship is too insignificant. A merchant ship of the Qiu family is enough to block a gold-class battleship. This is the weight of the Qiu family.
Qiu Yunqi also wanted to take the opportunity to beat others. This war has just begun, and it is a key battle that will determine the fate of the family for thousands of years. Which of these allies of the Qiu family doesn't have their own little plans? Even the Elizabeth family is not so obedient.
It¡¯s okay, let these guys see how heavy the words ¡°Qiu Family¡± really are!
Who dares to say anything if the Qiu family's boat, even a small sampan, blocks the passage?
"Come, come, come and try this year's new tea, the Han family's newly planted dragon's blood osmanthus, please taste it." Qiu Yunqi greeted everyone enthusiastically, but he did not take the conflict at the port to heart. For him now, spending a pleasant and beautiful afternoon is more important than anything else. Good tea and beautiful women are his hobbies.
He looked at Claudia with admiration. Claudia was not the most beautiful woman he had ever seen, but in terms of beauty, she was unparalleled and charming. He really couldn't understand how any man in this world could be willing to lay hands on such a beauty.
"What a fragrant tea!" Claudia was surprised. The tea soup in the cup was as red as blood and had a delicate fragrance.
She comes from a well-known family and spends extravagantly. She is naturally someone who knows what to buy. The dragon-blood osmanthus in front of her is definitely worth thousands of gold.
"It took a lot of effort." Qiu Yunqi smiled. Hearing the beauty's exclamation, he couldn't help but feel a little proud in his heart. He raised his tea cup and greeted everyone: "Everyone, please!"
Everyone raised their glasses and said, "Please!"
Claudia winked at Qiu Yunqi, and then drank all the tea in the cup. Among her many suitors, Qiu Yunqi is her favorite. He is handsome, has a good family background, and has abilities. He is not comparable to those playboys. Moreover, at such a critical time, being able to marry the Qiu family means that for the Elizabeth family, it means embracing a thigh that cannot be thicker.
But Claudia knew very well that most of the claims that Qiu Yunqi was her suitor were rumors. Qiu Yunqi appreciates him, but he is far from being a pursuer. What's more, how could a man as outstanding as Qiu Yunqi lack suitors?
¡°You must leave a good impression in front of Qiu Yunqi,¡± Claudia secretly reminded herself, her movements becoming more and more elegant. Suddenly, her eyes fell on the harbor in the distance, and her beautiful eyes suddenly widened, completely forgetting that she was drinking tea.
Poof!
The red tea soup was like spraying blood foam. Qiu Yunqi, who was sitting opposite her, was unable to dodge and was immediately drenched.
There was dead silence.
Everyone was shocked by Claudia's gaffe, and there was an awkward silence under the umbrella. Everyone looked at me and I looked at you, at a loss.
A ray of haze flashed in Qiu Yunqi's eyes, and the smile on his face disappeared. He had a slight mysophobia, and the current situation made him very unhappy. He forced himself to suppress the anger in his heart and looked at Claudia opposite, wanting to hear Claudia's explanation.
But ClaudiaShe didn't look at him at all. She stared straight at the port in the distance, her whole body motionless, like a sculpture.
The haze in Qiu Yunqi's eyes became a little heavier, and he reminded lightly: "Miss Claudia?"
Claudia suddenly raised her arm, pointed at the port, and stammered: "Then, there"
Everyone was stunned for a moment and looked in the direction of Claudia's finger. Suddenly, everyone's expressions froze, and some of them opened their mouths wide enough to stuff duck eggs.
Qiu Yunqi felt displeased and looked in the direction of Claudia's finger. But the next moment, his pupils suddenly dilated and he stood up. He even overturned the chair because of his too big movements. He had never lost his composure like this. Didn't appear on him.
In the port channel, the Qiu family's merchant ship was upside down, like a dead fish with a white belly, and the temperless Wushuang, which should have been blocked outside, was running over the overturned merchant ship. Even though they were far apart, everyone seemed to hear a heart-wrenching creaking sound. The hard bottom of the ship had no power to fight back in front of the huge and harder Wushuang, and was as fragile as a crisp biscuit.
Countless pieces of wood flew everywhere, and the crew on the merchant ship hurriedly jumped off the ship to escape. The scene was extremely chaotic.
The poor merchant ship whined beneath the Wushuang.
The Wushuang showed no mercy at all, and rushed into the port channel with debris all over the sky.
Qiu Yunqi completely forgot that he was sprayed with tea soup on his face. The bright red tea soup slid down his cheeks, like dripping blood from a knife, which made his handsome face look extremely ferocious.
His fists were clenched tightly, his whole body was shaking involuntarily, and his eyes were about to spit out fire.
¡°Have the Qiu family ever been provoked like this? When did that warship dare to crush the Qiu family's merchant ship?
Masefield!
Under the umbrella, there was silence. Everyone was completely shocked by this sudden change. They saw Qiu Yun's livid face, and no one dared to speak. Claudia's eyes did not leave the port. She was hit the hardest and has not recovered yet. There was only one thought in her mind.
How dare he?
How dare Masefield?
The masked figure floated through her mind, and she had a strong premonition that it must be the order given by the mysterious man in the iron mask. Although the two parties had met once, she was extremely impressed by that ruthless guy and his determination could not be shaken by any threats.
Seeing this scene, she suddenly felt a sense of joy.
That¡¯s a lunatic! A real madman! Only a true lunatic could do something so absurd and contemptuous of everything. Fortunately, I was alive. I was grateful, but also a little scared. If I had hesitated a little at that time, I would definitely be a corpse now. She has no doubt about this. Anyone who dares to crush the Qiu family's merchant ship will never take the Elizabeth family seriously.
When Willy rushed to the port, he found the Peerless at a glance. Macefield and Elizabeth were mortal enemies and were naturally very familiar with their respective gold-class battleships. Moreover, the Wushuang was so conspicuous that it ran over a merchant ship, and no ship around it dared to get close.
Willy is a shrewd person. When he saw the scene in front of him, he knew that someone must have deliberately caused harm. However, the merchant ship had been smashed into several pieces and the other party's badge could not be seen clearly.
¡°However, although Willy was wary, he was not too worried. It seemed that the Elizabeth Chamber of Commerce was not willing to give in.
He snorted in his heart, what a clown! Do you think you can regain your face with such despicable methods? Looking at the broken pieces of wood scattered everywhere, as well as the embarrassed-looking crew members, he felt very happy, but his face had a calm look.
The Wushuang was docking at the shore, and Willy quickly ordered the men in the branch to prepare to welcome it.
At this moment, a fat man in purple robe walked over. Willy recognized this person. White, the president of the Nanqi Chamber of Commerce, was also a very famous person in Snow City. The overall strength of the Nanqi Chamber of Commerce is not strong, but it is a local snake in the Holy Continent and has considerable energy.
Willy did not have a close relationship with White, but they had met a few times. When he saw the other person approaching, he went up to say hello: "I didn't expect to meet President White here. It's really a fate."
White stared at Willy for a long time without saying anything, looking a little weird.
Willy was a little confused and looked down at his clothes. There was nothing wrong with them.
White stepped forward and patted Willie on the shoulder: "Masefield, you have the guts!"
After saying that, without waiting for Willy to speak, he turned around and left with emotion on his face.
As soon as White left, another president of the Chamber of Commerce came over and patted Willy on the chest.He raised his arms and said, "Masefield, you have the guts!" Then he turned around and left.
Several acquaintances in a row made the same move, all with strange expressions.
Willy was confused and couldn¡¯t figure out what was going on. Suddenly, from the corner of his eye, a middle-aged man with a white face and no beard came over, walking like a dragon and a tiger, full of majesty. Lord of Snow White City! Willy was excited and rushed to greet him. Before he could greet him, the city lord said meaningfully: "Macefield, you are very courageous!"
After saying that, he walked away without waiting for Willy to speak.
Willy felt like he was confused, what was going on.
Just at this moment, a piece of floating debris flew in front of Willy's eyes. The big word "Autumn" on it made Willy feel as if he had been struck by lightning, and he was as stunned as a clay sculpture.
The blood on his face faded completely, as if it were white paper.
