Magic Industry Empire - 482. Chapter 482

Hearing the result of the verdict, Xu did not show any surprised expression, instead he smiled happily.

Seeing Xu Yi’s reaction, the Earl of Barcelona and the dozens of congressmen around were stunned.

The Earl of Barcelona frowned and said softly: “What are you laughing at? This is the Holy Kingdom Council of Nobles. You are not allowed to be so presumptuous!”

Xu Yi shook his head: “I’m just a little funny. It is so difficult to obtain the status of a nobleman, but it is so simple to be deprived of the status of a nobleman. It turns out that you can directly declare that you have deprived me of my noble status by asking a few questions. Hehe, don’t you think this is too sloppy?”

The Count of Barcelona said with a sullen face: “This is a deliberate decision made by the council. Letting you to participate in the council is just a chance for you to defend. However, you did not have any just now. You fully admitted the fact that you violated the regulations. Then you feel that you have won Is there still a problem with such punishment?”

“No, no, no, I don’t think there is a problem, I just really want to laugh.” Xu Yi waved his hand and said with a smile: “When I was told to come to the council before, I was a little nervous, but I didn’t expect the original process. It’s so simple, and even the result has been decided long ago. If I knew this was the case, I might as well just stop coming. It’s a waste of time.”

“Presumptuous!” Count Barcelona exclaimed. “Xu Yi, I warn you again, this is the sacred council of nobles, and you are not allowed to be so presumptuous here!”

Xu Yi shrugged: “Vice-chairman, you seem to have forgotten one thing. You just said that the assembly has decided to deprive me of my noble status, so I am a commoner now. Since I am a commoner, the aristocratic council can You can’t control me, right? Vice-chairman, if you have any dissatisfaction with me, please go to the Royal Parliament or the Public Security Office to file a complaint.”

The Count of Barcelona pointed at Xu Yi, trembling with anger, but he couldn’t find any fault in Xu Yi’s words.

Because according to the provisions of the Royal Council, although the Royal Council has all the management powers over the nobles, it is only limited to the nobles and does not have any power to dispose of the civilians, because this is the management category of the Royal Council.

Xu Yi was right. Now that he has been deprived of his noble status by the Noble Council and has become a commoner again, it means that the Noble Council no longer has the power to manage and restrict him.

If Xu is also an ordinary civilian, the aristocratic council can naturally find 10,000 ways to deal with him by virtue of its power.

But Xu Yi is not a commoner. On the contrary, there are still a bunch of powerful figures standing behind him. This time the aristocratic council wants to deal with Xu Yi under the instructions of some people, but it must first deliberately come up with a comment. Will come out, at least not revealing any errors in the surface program.

The other congressmen in the room looked at Xu Yi and were also dumbfounded.

They thought that Xu Ye would definitely fight for his noble status, and strongly opposed the resolution of the noble council.

But he didn’t expect that Xu Yi didn’t mean to deny any excuses from beginning to end. After hearing the judgment of the Count of Barcelona, he also didn’t express any excitement. He actually expressed his acceptance very indifferently.

In fact, their original plan was not to directly deprive Xu Yi of his noble status, because directly depriving a noble of his noble status is actually a matter of great influence, and the aristocratic council would easily not make such a decision.

Their original plan was to hope that Xu Yi could make some excuses for himself, and then they would be able to lower the punishment to Xu Yi in order to achieve their real goal-to weaken some of the benefits that Xu Yi gained through his noble status, such as territories, Tax reductions and exemptions, preferential policies, etc., indirectly weaken the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce.

But Xu Yi now does not make any excuses, accepts this resolution directly, and puts on such an attitude towards the Earl of Barcelona, then it is considered that the Earl of Barcelona wants to proceed according to the original plan and withdraw the decision to deprive Xu Yi of the noble status, but it has not at all. Ways to speak out.

Looking at Xu Yi who was standing in the middle of the field with a smile on his face, the Count of Barcelona and the other MPs were speechless for a while.

Xu Yi looked around and saw everyone staring at him blankly, and smiled slightly: “Is it all right? If it’s all right, then I’ll leave. I still have a lot of work to do, so I won’t accompany you to play here. NS.”

Just about to turn around, the Count of Barcelona roared: “Stop!”

Xu Yi stopped turning half of his body, turned his face, and looked at the Earl of Barcelona with a frown: “Vice Speaker, please pay attention to your demeanor as a nobleman. I don’t think it’s too rude to yell at a civilian like this. ?”

The Count of Barcelona almost choked to death with a mouthful of saliva, and coughed vigorously a few times. Then he panted and said: “You can’t go yet, there are still some procedures to be done.”

“Oh?”

The Count of Barcelona settled down and took out a pile of documents that had obviously been prepared from under the table.

“Since you have been deprived of your noble status, then some of the privileges you enjoyed when you were a noble should also be taken back. Here are some related documents, you must sign before you can leave.”

Xu Yi received these documents from a young congressman who was sent over, and roughly flipped through them, and found that they were about taking back the privileges that Xu Yi had when he was a viscount, including private domains.

Xu Yi was not surprised by this treatment, but Xu Yi raised objections to some of the details in these documents.

“Your Vice Chairperson, according to this “Private Realm Recycling Agreement”, am I not going to re-surrender the entire Rainy Valley outside Bangta City? Then our Xinfei Chamber of Commerce is in those factories in the Rainy Valley. How to deal with various other facilities?”

Hearing this question, the Count of Barcelona and other MPs around seemed relieved.

The Count of Barcelona showed a smug smile on his face and said: “How to deal with those factories and other related facilities has nothing to do with the council. If the New Flying Chamber of Commerce cannot turn over the territory within the specified time, then according to the regulations, everything on the territory will be harmonized. The territories were forcibly turned over.”

“In other words, is the council intending to completely drive our new flying business association out of the Rainfall Valley?” Xu Yi asked.

The Count of Barcelona made an awe-inspiring look: “Xu Yi, I warn you that you are slandering the parliament. I reserve the right to lodge a complaint against you with the Royal Assembly.”

Xu Yiha let out a cry, thinking that the vice-chairperson had made it clear that he was shameless, and it would make no sense to say anything to him.

After reading the contents of these documents, Xu Yi casually threw the documents aside, and said to the Earl of Barcelona, “Vice Speaker, I think I have to remind you. Falling Rain Valley, including the area surrounding the Falling Rain Valley. In fact, my private domain is not large. The other most important parts are directly leased from the royal family. Although the noble council can deprive me of my noble status and seize my private domain, these leased land is the noble council. There is no right to intervene.”

The Earl of Barcelona snorted coldly: “Do you think the council will make this resolution without finding out? Of course the part of the land leased by the New Flying Merchants Association from the royal family will not be cleaned up, but you are in the Rainfall Valley. Private territory of nearly ten square kilometers must be turned over!”

Xu Yi looked astonished: “Your Vice-President, who told you that I actually own a private territory close to ten square kilometers? I’m just a viscount, how could I have such a large private territory? Where did you do it? wrong!”

The Count of Barcelona waved his hand: “Don’t mess around, your private territory is on file in the parliament, how can you make a mistake.”

“No, no, no, I only applied to His Majesty the King for a private domain of at most a few thousand square meters, just to build a private estate for residence. How could I ask for a place close to ten square kilometers? Even if I ask for it Obviously, His Majesty the King cannot give it to me. So you must have made a mistake. If you don’t believe it, please ask your Majesty the King for confirmation.”

The Count of Barcelona laughed and determined that Xu Yi was dying, and said coldly: “No, the resolution made by the parliament will only be judged based on the information in the parliament. Besides, how can you bother the King because of this trivial matter now…”

Halfway through the conversation, the Earl of Barcelona suddenly paused, staring straight behind Xu Yi with an expression of hell.

The expressions on the faces of other congressmen were equally wonderful, all staring behind Xu Yi blankly.

Xu Yi turned around and saw a middle-aged man with an unremarkable face and a small head, who seemed to be in his forties, slowly walked into the side hall.

The middle-aged man nodded to Xu Yi, then turned to the Earl of Barcelona and asked: “Barça deputy speaker, is Xu Yi’s council over? Has the result come out?”

The count of Barcelona became extremely ugly, and he hesitated for a long time before repliing: “It’s over, as for the result…” The count of Barcelona glanced at Xu Yi, his expression even more ugly. “Viscount Xu Yi has deliberately violated relevant parliamentary regulations and has now deprived him of his aristocratic status in accordance with the regulations.”

The middle-aged man nodded, then turned to Xu Yi and asked, “President Xu, are you a civilian now?”

“Yes.”

Xu Yi recalled it in his mind, and suddenly thought that when he was meeting with His Majesty the King, he seemed to have seen this middle-aged man in the palace.

The respectful attitude of the Count of Barcelona and other members of Congress towards him shows that this middle-aged man, who seems nothing special, is very likely to be a cronies of His Majesty the King in the palace.

“Very well, since President Xu you are already a commoner, I will now read to you the appointment of His Majesty the King.”

Seeing that the middle-aged man took out a letter of command with the seal of His Majesty from his arms, the Earl of Barcelona moved in his heart, his face instantly became extremely gloomy.

“In view of Xu Yi’s great contribution to the kingdom, His Majesty decided to specially promote the civilian Xu Yi as a baron as a reward.”

While Xu Yi was still in a daze, the middle-aged man took out a copy of the exact same order from his arms and continued to read it.

“In view of the great contribution that Baron Xu Yi has made to the kingdom, His Majesty has decided to specially promote Baron Xu Yi as a Viscount, as a reward.”

Except for the name Xu Yi at the beginning, there is almost no difference between the two orders.

From this it can be seen that the middle-aged man had already been prepared for a long time, and he made a special trip for Xu Yi.

The Count of Barcelona on the side heard these two appointments, and said with a stubborn expression: “This… Director of Dema, Xu Yi has just been deprived of his noble status by our noble council. His Majesty the King has been promoted to noble at this time… I’m afraid Not so good?”

Master Dema glanced at him and said calmly: “I don’t care about these. Anyway, I came according to your majesty’s order. Your Majesty said that as long as Xu Yi is deprived of his noble status by the Noble Council, then I will read these two orders. In addition, these two orders are permanently valid.”

Hearing the words of Director Dema, the Count of Basel and the surrounding group of MPs were all ashamed in an instant.
