Father Mavie

"Freya"

Looking at the familiar figure on the other side of the street, Mavi waved the approaching four-wheeled carriage away, led Junia and the others across the street, and came to Freya who was holding a white cat: "Where are you going?" ?”

"Go home." Freya asked, "Where are you going?"

"Going to Canary Wharf, it doesn't seem to be the way."

"It's okay, I'll take you there." Freya glanced at the butler and signaled him to call the coachman: "You are idle, but you didn't attend the banquet held in the church tonight, it is specially for the delegation I heard that the Pope is very satisfied with your work, and I am waiting to reward you."

"Dinners are nothing interesting, it's dinners all day long, and it's annoying."

The carriage bearing the emblem of the Chevalier family was parked on the side of the street, the butler opened the door, and Ma Wei and several people got into the carriage one by one. The carriage was widened, not only covered with soft cushions, but also more spacious than ordinary four-wheeled carriages. There is no problem at all with five or six grown men.

Walking with Freya, Mavi is not only to save money on the car, but more importantly, to ask about Maria.

Although he has left Paris and the Bonaparte Empire, Mavi still attaches great importance to Maria's actions. The real pocket watch proves that Maria is related to the power of the ancient gods, and Freya made the four-pillared Ah Smod, who is a descendant of the Chevalli family like Maria, think about it carefully.
There must be an inseparable connection between the two of them.

Just like how Freya approached Rhodes IV, Maria approached Napoleon. If there is nothing tricky about it, Mavi would definitely not believe it.

"Is Paris fun?" Freya asked on the carriage to Canary Wharf.

"Okay."

Recalling the experience of this time in Paris, Ma Wei gave a rather reluctant evaluation: "I saw someone in Paris."

"Who?"

"Maria de Chevalier."

"Oh"

Freya nodded, without showing a look of surprise, but asked lightly: "She is my cousin, since you have seen her, you must already know the story of the Chevalier family, how is she?"

"Which aspect are you asking?"

"In all aspects." Freya said: "Before you left for London, I wrote her a letter. If she receives the letter, she should take care of you."

"She really takes care of us." Ma Wei smiled: "How much do you know about her?"

"I don't know her very well. I've never met her before. I just write letters occasionally. You know, now there are only her and me in the Chevalier family. It's not the time to care about grievances."

Ma Wei nodded slowly, but he didn't find any flaws. He couldn't explain some problems clearly, otherwise it would arouse Freya's suspicion.

After talking about the customs of Paris for a while, the carriage arrived at Canary Wharf. As the evening approached, the busy workers on the wharf were already preparing for work before work. There was not enough lighting equipment at night, so it was not suitable for moving goods unless there was an emergency.

"It's so late, what are you doing at Canary Wharf?" Looking around, Freya was a little curious, asking while stroking the obedient and lovely white cat in her arms.

"A few days ago, the Manstein Potion Company established a shipping company with its headquarters here."

Ma Wei bypassed the wharf area and walked straight into the black market alley at the back. The alley ended in a dead end, and on both sides were the office areas of various maritime companies. A young man in a suit, with oiled hair and black-rimmed eyes was standing On the left side of the alley, I looked with a pocket watch in my hand, and when I saw Ma Wei and the others, they rushed up to meet them.

"Mr. Nicholas!" The young man came with a briefcase and said quickly, "The formalities are all done. As long as you sign the document, 22 Canary Wharf will be your property."

Before departure, Ma Wei handed over the task of finding the headquarters of the maritime company to Tiffany. She did a good job. When Ma Wei came back, she notified the manager who sold the house and brought the documents on the same day.

The original owner of the house had already signed the document, and Ma Wei had paid off the final payment in advance. With his current background, he was not afraid of others tampering with the contract.

"Felix, come and sign."

Levin froze for a moment: "Me?"

"Well, I hold the shares of Manstein Potion Company, so I'm not suitable to be the boss of Manstein Maritime Company. All eggs can't be put in the same basket."

Ma Wei took out a pen and handed it to Levin: "The owner of the Manstein Maritime Company is you."

If the Manstein Maritime Company and the Manstein Potion Company are integrated, any trouble in one company in the future will affect the other company. To be on the safe side, Ma Wei decided to separate the company and control it himself. The Manstein Potion Company, and the Maritime Company handed over to Levine.

Levin will soon become the Earl of the kingdom, owning his own territory, and having no property under his name, it is not justified.

They were all his own people, and Levin didn't bother about it. He took the pen and signed the name of Felix von Manstein on the document that the young man put on the side of the briefcase. .

"All right!"

Black and white, the contract came into effect, the young man smiled and dried the ink on the paper, and handed one of the documents together with the key to Ma Wei: "Mr. Nicholas, this is the key to house No. 22. Please keep it. I suggest you change the lock. Because I'm not sure if the previous owner has any other keys."

"Okay, sorry to trouble you."

"Should be."

After tidying up the briefcase, the young man bowed farewell to Ma Wei and the others, and then quickly left the dock area.

Taking out the key, Ma Wei and the others came to No. 22 of Canary Wharf. This is a three-storey stone house connected with other houses for some years. There was a lot of moss, and the furnishings in the house were also very old. The floor creaked and sounded like it was on the verge of collapse.

"Needs a major overhaul."

After seeing the whole house, Mavi decided to replace all the floors and furniture, transform it into an office, and then hang the signboard of Manstein Maritime Company
Seeing that Ma Wei and the others seemed to be staying here for a while, Freya, who seemed to have something to do, got up and said goodbye. After she left, Ma Wei opened the window and blew a loud whistle.

pat.

A round orange cat with a butt wider than shoulders landed on the window sill, showing a lightness that did not match its figure. When walking around, under the fluttering hair, a golden armband engraved with intricate patterns could be faintly seen.

"I am back."

"I know, I knew when you first entered the city." Fat Orange stepped into the dim room, jumped onto the round table, and yawned with his mouth open: "During your absence, nothing major happened in London. Something is wrong, Freya left London."

"Freya left London?" Ma Wei's eyelids twitched: "When did she leave, and when did she come back?"

"She left on the day you left, leaving Xiaobai at home to be taken care of by servants, and left the city from the north in a carriage alone. No one knows where she went." Fat Orange said: "She came back last night , just the night before your return."

"Yeah." Ma Wei remembered the demons that appeared on the night of fleeing Paris, nodded and said: "It seems that she also participated in the summoning of the Devil's Gate. Besides her, did anyone else leave London?"

"Who are you asking?"

"The fourth prince's wife, the chief knight of the round table, Lancelot."

"Gulihana?" Fat Ju shook her head slowly: "No, she has been in London."

"Are you sure? I saw Paimon appear in Paris with my own eyes."

"I also saw Gulihana sleeping in my own home with my own eyes." Fat Ju said, "As for whether I saw the real person, I'm not sure."

Fat Orange has always been impeccable in doing things, and the same is true in speaking. It says that it has seen it with its own eyes, so it has seen it with its own eyes, but the key is whether the Gulihana it sees is actually Gulihana herself.

The last time the Supreme Four Pillars invaded London, the fourth prince suspected that the person next to his bed was a demon. Ma Wei saw his worry and asked Fat Ju to spy on Gulihana. This time when he went to Paris, Paimon appeared in person. If she doesn't know the avatar technique, it is enough to prove that Gulihana is not Paimeng's deity.

but.
Without solid evidence, Mavi dare not jump to conclusions, not to mention him, even the fourth prince who lies with Gulihana all day long and often lives a married life is not sure!

If Gulihana is really Paimon, then the fourth prince!
"By the way, the fourth prince and the others are back?"

"No." Fat Orange said: "According to the report from the cat detective I sent out, they should have returned from the West Island by now and are in the final negotiations in Edinburgh. It is said that the negotiations went well."

With Edward by his side, Ma Wei is not worried about the safety of the fourth prince. As for the idea of ​​the eldest prince expanding to the north and the West Island, it is not worth mentioning in his opinion.

Now that the "Paris Potions Agreement" is signed, the market is no longer limited to the domestic market. The real cake lies in the Central Continent, and the Manstein Potions Company has won the top spot. The potions market in the North and West Islands is somewhat insignificant.

"Where's Xiao Hei? How's the housekeeper?"

When mentioning Mr. Steward, Fat Orange looked more serious: "During the time you left, an academic summit was held in London. On the way to the end of the summit, Mr. Steward kidnapped many scientists and took them away."

"where?"

"Windsor Castle!"

Windsor Castle?

Isn't that the domain of the royal family?
Rhodes IV was so bold that he lent Windsor Castle to the Doomsday Party as a base?
"To be precise, it is the small town of Windsor next to Windsor Castle, where James Morea intends to re-establish a laboratory and continue his research."

After a pause, Fat Ju asked, "Do you want to destroy the laboratory again?"

"Of course, the research on this kind of modified organisms cannot continue." Ma Wei said: "After they build the laboratory, they will start. If the laboratory is not built, the research will not continue."

"Why wait for the lab to be completed before doing it, Dad?" Junia asked with a puzzled look on her face, "Isn't it better to do it now?"

"If we do it now, first of all, James Morea will realize that there is an inner ghost around him, which will endanger Xiao Hei's safety. Secondly, it takes time to build a laboratory. It is easy to destroy the unbuilt laboratory, but James Morea and the others can continue their research in another place, so why don't we use the unbuilt laboratory to delay a little time? It can also waste their financial and material resources, killing two birds with one stone."

"Oh oh oh, that's right"

Junia suddenly realized that Fat Ju's expression did not change. It was very clear that Ma Wei's thoughts were not as simple as what he said, and there was another reason besides the few reasons just mentioned.

Abducted professors!
Rescuing them now won't get them too much gratitude. If they wait for a while, they will appear when they feel desperate and feel that they will never be able to escape from the devil's lair.
Wouldn't it be possible to swipe a wave of favorability?
The professors who are eligible to receive the invitation letter and come to London to participate in the academic summit are all academic elites with countless disciples. It is absolutely worthwhile to have a good relationship with such people.

"What do you plan to do next?" Fat Orange asked, "Now Manstein Potion Company is on the right track, and the international market is also open."

"The next step, I plan to increase my influence and run for parliament." Ma Wei said with a smile: "I suggest that the purpose of Ubli I to open up potion planting, picking, and transportation is here. I want to build momentum for myself."

The parliamentarians of the Kingdom of Windsor are based on a voting system. Whoever gets the most votes from the people can be elected as a member. Of course, Ma Wei will not manipulate the voting. He has to rely on his own ability to make the people vote for him willingly. .

If you want the people to vote for you, you must first let the people know who you are. The Manstein potion company is very famous, but if you ask anyone on the street who is the owner of the company, nine out of ten cannot answer .

The people who are really struggling above the poverty line have no energy to pay attention to the capitalists above them. They only think about what to eat today and whether they can make money, and more than half of these people are illiterate and do not usually read newspapers.

If you want to quickly increase your popularity and get the support of the public, you must do things that are beneficial to the public, such as directly sending money, simple and rude, five shillings per person, and within half a month, all London knows that Nicholas von Who is the great good man Manstein.

Sending money directly can save most of the troubles, but unfortunately, the amount of funds in Ma Wei's hands cannot satisfy the option of sending money directly.

The country can send money to the people because they have the right to print money and can print money. How can individuals be compared with the country?
Due to insufficient funds, Ma Wei had no choice but to give up sending money directly, and instead used other means to increase his popularity and win the support of the public.

After thinking about it, Ma Wei felt that it is still necessary to use the resources in his hands, such as
Potion!

"The sinking of the potion market will create many jobs. If I can seize this opportunity, the public will definitely remember my name and cast a valuable vote!"
