Chapter 463: Going out to sea again (1)
Translator: 549690339
When Zhao Hai first opened his shop in Jade water city, he wanted to get in touch with more merchants and aristocrats to form his own network.
However, there was no need for that now. He had already contacted Charlie. Who was Charlie? A Prince, a man who had the potential to become King, would be more reliable to establish a relationship with than with such a person.
Even if Charlie did not become the king in the future, he would still be a Prince, a powerful Prince. Even the king would not dare to do anything to him. This was because there were too many interests behind this Prince. Even if the king wanted to touch him, he would have to think carefully.
Just like the king of the south of the Arkas Empire, although he was only a Prince, his strength was no less than the king’s in the South of the Arkas Empire. Even the king’s decrees could not be implemented in the southern back of the Arkas Empire, because people there only knew the king of the south.
The reason why the southern King had such strength was because he was surrounded by a large group of nobles. The interests of these people were intertwined with the interests of the southern King. Even if the southern King did not become King, he had to protect his power. Only in this way would their interests not be harmed.
However, on the mainland, the southern King was also an exception. In the future, when the southern King and the old king of the Arkas Empire fought for the throne, their father suddenly passed away. Although the old king ascended the throne, the southern King’s power was not damaged. He had no choice but to let him be the southern King.
In the case of the Roson Empire, the old king was in good health. When Charlie and the others fought for the throne, if the old king was determined to pass the throne to his son, he would suppress the other Kings and greatly reduce their power. It would be impossible for a second king of the south to appear.
However, the old nobles on the ark continent were too powerful. Sometimes, even the old king would not dare to touch him easily. The Kings all wanted to make friends with the old nobles so that even if they failed to win the throne, at least they would be fine.
Zhao Hai also knew that with Charlie’s help, it would be difficult for him to cooperate with the other old nobles. The old nobles would not participate in the Prince’s fight for the throne. If the person they supported failed, they might be suppressed by the new king. Although the old nobles had a deep foundation, if they were constantly suppressed, their strength would slowly decrease. This was definitely not a good thing for them.
If they did not participate in the princes ‘fight for the throne, no matter which Prince became the new king, they would be treated with respect. Under such circumstances, why would they help those princes fight for the throne? Therefore, the princes of various countries would fight for the throne from time to time, but the old nobles would rarely participate.
Now that Zhao Hai had established a connection with Charlie, he was basically on Charlie’s side. Under such circumstances, most of the older generation of aristocrats would not have too much contact with Zhao Hai. This was because they were afraid that if they did, it would give the impression that they were on Charlie’s side. If that happened, it would be the same as choosing a side, which was not in line with the principles of the older generation of aristocrats.
Zhao Hai also knew about this situation, so he didn’t let mu en contact the old nobles, but just told him to keep an eye on the shop.
However, Zhao Hai believed that the business of his shop would not be bad. The old-school aristocrats did not participate in the war for the throne, but that did not mean that others would not. In fact, there were many aristocrats who liked to participate, especially those of medium and small scale. They wanted to place a bet. As long as they placed the right bet, their families would rise to fame.
Now, Zhao Hai was considered one of Charlie’s subordinates. Although he was not famous yet, Charlie would explain Zhao Hai’s identity to the nobles under him. Those people were getting some information from trezeb and would probably come to him for cooperation soon.
Zhao Hai was still very confident. Charlie’s attitude towards him these past few days had already explained the problem. If the nobles that followed Charlie knew of Charlie’s attitude towards Zhao Hai, they would definitely come to Zhao Hai to work with him. Zhao Hai believed that trezeb would also tell the nobles about Charlie’s attitude towards him, because trezeb was Charlie’s closest confidant.
Trezeb would do something that would benefit Charlie the most. He wanted to unite all of Charlie’s followers as one, as that was the only way to increase their strength. Therefore, trezeb would definitely tell Charlie’s subordinates about Charlie’s attitude towards Zhao Hai, so that they would respect Zhao Hai.
After settling the matters in Jade water city, Zhao Hai was about to leave. He had given mu en a special storage bag, an Eagle, and 100 undead creatures in the second basement of the warehouse in case of an emergency.
Now, he didn’t have to worry about the safety of the Jade water city at all. Paradise had been repaired, so Zhao Hai was ready to set off to trade with the shrimp tribe. He was afraid that the shrimp tribe would forget about this matter if he didn’t go for a long time.
After greeting Charlie, Charlie personally escorted Zhao Hai to the peach Garden. This made Zhao Hai very touched, and some of Charlie’s subordinates were also very surprised.
Charlie was a Prince, so it was very surprising for him to be so close to Zhao Hai in such a high-profile way. Most importantly, not only did Charlie act close to Zhao Hai, he did not act as if he was very respectful to Zhao Hai, which surprised them even more.
What Zhao Hai didn’t know was that the kalchi family had been in a great chaos because of Zhao Hai’s affair. Smith had written a letter to his brothers and asked them to support him in case Zhu Wan offended Zhao Hai. Meanwhile, his family members should start to cooperate with Zhao Hai instead of forcing him to do anything.
However, Smith didn’t expect that his brothers wouldn’t support him immediately. It wasn’t really Smith’s brothers ‘fault. After all, they had never seen Zhao Hai before. Moreover, Zhao Hai had only been doing business with their family for a short time, so they wanted to keep an eye on Zhao Hai.
However, they did not expect that while they wanted to observe Zhao Hai for a while longer, others, especially Zhu Wan, did not want to. Zhu Wan had never suffered such a big loss since he was young. This time, Zhao Hai had robbed his ship and thrown him into the sea. He even asked Smith to save him. This was an unprecedented humiliation to him, so he wanted to take revenge.
After returning to his family, he told them about the meeting with Zhao Hai. Of course, he could not avoid adding some details, saying how Zhao Hai could not see the kalci family, and how he described himself as a good man and a punching bag.
As a result, the impression of Zhao Hai was naturally much worse in the eyes of the people in the kalchi family. Although Smith had written down all the good things about Zhao Hai in his letter, the effect of a letter with one person crying and complaining was incomparable.
Plus, the kalci family really wanted the thing in Zhao Hai’s hand. Therefore, they wanted to force Zhao Hai to see if he could commit the crime.
However, at this time, news came that Zhao Hai had arrived at Jade water city and was living in the city Lord’s mansion. He had a very good relationship with Charlie, and most importantly, Charlie also treated him very highly because he had a conflict with the second Prince.
When the news reached the Carl family, Smith felt extremely regretful. He even wrote a letter to his family. This letter was no longer about Zhao Hai, but about his grievances. At the same time, it was to tell the family that if they really forced Zhao Hai to become their enemy, they would not have a good life.
However, the kalchi family didn’t think so now. In their eyes, Zhao Hai was an ungrateful person. Therefore, they were very angry. Not only did they not listen to Smith to restore the relationship with Zhao Hai, but on the contrary, they wanted to teach Zhao Hai a lesson. Therefore, they had sent out their secret agents to collect information about Zhao Hai in Jade water city.
However, to their disappointment, Zhao Hai was very low-key in Jade water city. He rarely went out, just like he was in heavenly water city.
Zhao Hai’s character made the people from the kalchi family somewhat at a loss. Even if they were an old noble family, even if they were powerful, they would not dare to attack the Lord’s mansion of the Jade water city because Charlie was living there now.
However, they soon found out that Zhao Hai had a shop in the Jade water city, which made the kalchi family happy. They wanted to destroy Zhao Hai’s shop in the Jade water city to teach him a lesson.
However, they gave up after asking around. This was because the shop was a gift from Charlie to Zhao Hai. If it was only Zhao Hai’s shop, they could have just destroyed it. However, since it was a gift from Charlie, it was a different matter.
Even if the big families could ignore Charlie, they had to give him face. Otherwise, they would not only be targeting Charlie, but also the Rosen royal family.
The old nobles were not the only ones who valued their reputation. The royal family valued their reputation even more than the old nobles. In any case, the Rosen Empire belonged to the carci family. If they were forced into a corner, they would not be polite. If the royal family went against the old nobles, the old nobles would be the ones who suffered.
When the kalchi family realized that they could not touch the shop in the Jade water city, they could only lay their hands on Zhao Hai. They did not believe that Zhao Hai would stay in the Jade water city forever.
Sure enough, the time came soon. Zhao Hai was going to leave the Jade water city. However, what the kalchi family didn’t expect was that Charlie would personally send Zhao Hai off at the dock. The people of the kalchi family were very clear about what this meant.
For such a situation, the people of the karci family were obviously not prepared enough. They hesitated for a while, not knowing whether they should deal with Zhao Hai. Finally, the head of the karci family in Jade water city could only tell the family about this situation and let the family make a decision.
