Chapter 687 [Chapter of the Fatal Game] One Hundred and Thirty Six: Uninvited Guests

"I'm here to discuss with you the William Adams Group's investment plan for Yanan City in the next stage, as well as related cooperation with the Yanan City Council."

No one present expected his arrival, nor did they expect that he would bring up such a thing at this sensitive time.

As the adopted son of William Adams himself, James Adams is essentially the Adams family dog ​​in the eyes of everyone else - he is classified as a "trustworthy and loyal dog" by most people who do not know the truth.

.

In the months after Leonard Adams came to Yharnam, James Adams' behavior confirmed the opinions of onlookers about him - he did almost nothing, but only when the time was right.

He made his own suggestions for Leonard Adams without even having any expectations for the implementation of his suggestions. It was a completely indifferent attitude.

This means that he himself does not want to participate in the group's construction of Yanan City, and he is not interested in the power that the group can bestow on people.

For others, this is a good thing.

James Adams's own resume is destined to cause strong oppression to others——

It is said that he participated in the formulation of less than half of the systems currently operated by the William Adams Group, which means that he can easily use this system that already dominates the empire from an economic perspective to cause damage to emerging commercial cities like Yanan City.

Dimensionality reduction attack.

Another thing that a few people know is that in the years after he graduated from Miskatonic University, he entered the research department of the William Adams Group, where the Internet and computers were completely unknown to the world.

Under the circumstances, he participated in the research and production of the legendary "editable programmable creature" [Rage Spirit].

Before the emergence of violent spirits, supernatural beings could only rely on completely random genetic mutations to obtain supernatural powers.

After the appearance of the violent spirit, mortals could finally possess extraordinary powers without relying on genetic mutations.

If it weren't for the high price, this editable "programmed creature" would surely become popular and change the extraordinary system of the entire empire.

As a researcher of the Raging Spirit, the knowledge retained in James Adams' head has become a "strategic treasure that cannot be destroyed."

The Chorus, the actual ruler of the empire, has shared technology with the William Adams Group to a certain extent, and has protected this part of the knowledge about the violent spirits from being infringed upon by anyone——

Therefore, at this moment, the most uncomfortable person in the entire meeting hall is actually the archbishop.

James Adams is one of the very few people protected by the upper-level will of the Choir, which means that the Archbishop cannot use his transcendent position in the House to take strong measures against him, nor can he force him to accept his will——

The archbishop has not experienced anything like this for many years since he became archbishop.

The James Adams in your eyes, that is, Chen Changsheng, stood on a higher step far away from everyone. After looking around (looking down at the angle) everyone's expressions, he spoke again:

"William Adams Group will sort out all the markets in Yanam City and work with you to establish a good market order, promote the development of the market economy, and allow all transactions to be conducted fairly and justly under the sun."

After hearing this, the congressmen cursed in their hearts, what the hell is fairness and justice? The market rules are completely made by you. Fairness and justice can only be a shield to ensure your market development. It is completely different from the moral level of "fairness and justice".

Dime relationship.

This idea flashed through everyone's heads, and what followed was their own ulterior motives:

Everyone here has their own industries. Rather, the conservative policy of the Conservative Party is to ensure the safety of their own industries. As an "outsider", the William Adams Group is essentially an "invader" targeting all interest groups in Yanan City.

"The group's market occupation behavior directly affects the interests of other people.

Therefore, after the death of Leonard Adams, all local forces in Yanan City immediately started to move, preparing to take advantage of the chaos of William Adams's group and take advantage of it.

Their plan went surprisingly smoothly. In the week since the death of Leonard Adams, the top management of the Yanan City branch fell apart due to their intervention.

They effortlessly obtained the market that William Adams Group exchanged for real money and silver in Yanan City, obtained the agents trained by the group with the most advanced economic knowledge from the imperial capital, and almost completely understood William Adams'

Adams Group’s operating strategy——

They knew that this thing was valuable, but they did not think that it was the most critical factor in the development of the William Adams Group to its present level.

They only care about money.

They only think that the existence of William Adams himself as a "miracle on the surface" and his great success today are entirely due to the luck that every businessman must rely on - they actually think that William Adams is only where he is today because of luck.

situation.

Chen Changsheng's eyes swept across everyone's faces, and finally settled on the face of Charles, the only one who did not dodge.

"Mr. Adams."

Charles' tone is very calm. His long-term position in high positions has given him an indescribable solemn temperament. Even though his tone and demeanor are calm, he can still make people feel huge pressure.

Fortunately, Chen Changsheng had experienced greater pressure than this, so he didn't feel any discomfort.

"As far as I know, the group's branches are now leaderless - someone has to make the decision and then send representatives to the parliament to discuss it."

Everyone understood what Charles said, because everyone knew clearly that even if William Adams was a lunatic with a hanging head, he would never let anyone who was not his direct lineage hold real power - no one would do such a thing.

It did not happen in the past years of history, and it will not happen in the endless years to come.

"I am."

Chen Changsheng said this sentence in a simple tone, as if he was telling something that was so natural that no explanation was needed.

Lil Besarius couldn't help but glance at Charles and found that the latter's expression had changed slightly.

As an old friend, Lil Besarius had realized the drastic changes in Charles' heart.

Not everyone else present had the same wealth as Charles. After hearing this shocking news, the congressmen who were involved in this incident could not calm down at all. Representative Michael Heinrich, who manages the market operation,

He even stood up and lost his respect for the name "Adams" due to excessive fright. He looked excited:

"Mr. Adams, we hope you can give a detailed explanation and proof. The William Adams Group has always been the closest partner of Yanan City. We do not want to suspend our cooperative relationship with the group because of any accidents."

Congressmen are not all smart people, and a large part of the reason for their rise to power is not strength.

Liar Besarius almost couldn't help but laugh when he heard these self-evident words. He knew that Michael Heinrich managed some properties for the nobles in the House of Lords, and he also knew that the senator used

The authority violated the property of the Yharnam branch of the William Adams Group during this week of collapse.

Now, the divided sub-group has finally reacted and launched such an agent with a strong identity and status. The key is that this person is not a "real" Adams, which means that the group is likely to use such an identity.

Special people do the dirty work.

What Chen Changsheng is about to do in Yanan City, even if something goes wrong in the end, will not tarnish the reputation of the Adams family too much, let alone hurt the goodwill of the William Adams Group - people will think that he is not the Adams family

The direct descendant of the family did not receive education from the Adams family, but was an "outsider" who took over the family affairs with force and failed to handle it well.

In the perception of others, even if such an outsider bears the surname Adams, he will not be of the same mind as the family. The problem is his own fault and cannot be blamed on the William Adams Group.

Thinking of this, Lier Besarius himself was deeply moved by the news.

The old gangster muttered in his heart that there were too many big things happening today. The old conservative party wanted to cut flesh from itself. The most potential branch of the largest business group in the empire was about to be taken over by a foreigner. Historically, the fate of foreigners in power was getting worse.

Tragic, the key is that the surname is still Asian...

This world is really crazy!
