Magic Industry Empire - 889. Chapter 889

Hafra turned his head and glanced at the sky outside the shop, with a worried look on his face.

Prado was summoned by the lord of the city when lunch was approaching. It is now that lunch time has passed, and it is almost two o’clock in the afternoon, but he still hasn’t returned, which is really strange.

Ordinarily, even if the Lord of the City specially gifted Prado and left him for lunch, he should be back after the meal.

It’s impossible for Lord City Lord to really like him after seeing him, and want to keep him for dinner, right?

“Uncle, what are we going to do now?” Nasus yawned boredly and asked Hafra.

Hafra glanced at him and waved his hand: “Don’t stay here, go out and check the magic locomotive. If it goes well, we will leave here tomorrow or the day after tomorrow, but we can’t let the magic locomotive have any problems.”

Nasus curled his lips: “What is there to check? The quality of the New Flying Chamber of Commerce has always been good, so there will be no problems.”

“Let you go!” Hafra stared.

Nasus could only mutter helplessly, got up and walked outside the door.

Just walking to the door, a few tall figures suddenly walked in from outside, completely blocking the door of the shop.

Nasus was stunned, and when he took a closer look, he found that the few people who appeared suddenly were all wearing the uniform armor of the city defense army, and he couldn’t help being surprised.

Then he was surprised to find that the city defense army headed by him actually knew him, and it was the Captain Wien who was in charge of guarding the city gate when they entered the city two days ago.

Captain Wien’s gaze swept across Nasus’ face, and then fell on Hafra, who had just gotten up in the store.

After scanning Hafra, he nodded, waved his hand, and shouted in a low voice: “It’s them, grab them all!”

Several city defense forces behind him immediately rushed out like wolves and tigers, grabbing them firmly.

“Hey, what are you doing? Did we do something wrong? Why are you arresting us?” Nasus immediately yelled, struggling hard at the same time.

However, he was just an underage boy, how could he be able to compete with two well-trained soldiers of the city defense army, he could only yell, and it didn’t work.

Although Hafra was equally surprised, he was knowledgeable and much calmer than Nasus.

Seeing the leader of Captain Wayne, he cast a questioning look at Captain Wayne.

Captain Wien turned his gaze, and Hafra looked at each other, and shook his head slightly.

Hafra immediately understood, turned his head and gave a low voice to Nasus, telling him to shut up.

Captain Wien waved his hand again, and several city defense troops escorted them out together.

After getting on two carriages under the escort of the city defense army, the group swayed to the city defense army detention center in the south of the city.

Then the city defense army in charge of the escort sent the two to the guards’ prison and kept them in the same cell.

“Uncle, this…what the hell is going on?” After the escorted city defense army exited the cell, Nasus finally couldn’t help feeling panic and asked Hafra.

“Be calm.” Hafra patted Nasus on the shoulder, took out from his arms a piece of biscuits that he had hidden in his arms after eating at noon, and handed it over. “Take a bite first and calm down.”

Nasus stared blankly at the biscuits that Hafra had handed over, thinking that you still let me eat at this time? How can you eat it!

“Remember, you must be calm when you encounter anything. Then remember a little bit. No matter what the situation is, you must first ensure your stomach. Having physical strength can ensure that you can do what you need when necessary. Response. Do you understand?”

Seeing the solemn expression on Hafra’s face, Nasus nodded seemingly.

After thinking for a while, he reached out to take the sesame seed, broke half and handed it back to Hafra, then bit the other half by himself, chewing lightly, and fell into thinking.

Seeing Nasus gradually regaining his composure, Hafra glanced at half of the sesame seed in his hand and nodded appreciatively.

This nephew was able to listen to his own words, and he was able to calm down in this situation, and he even remembered to give himself half of the biscuits, which really made him very satisfied.

If the danger can be turned into a breeze this time, he can really be cultivated as a successor in the future.

After a pause, Hafra put the other half of the biscuits into his mouth, and after taking a bite, he chewed and thought.

Although Captain Wayne gave him not many hints just now, there are a lot of meanings that can be read from it.

First of all, Captain Wayne directly told him not to act rashly, obviously because the incident that happened suddenly today involves a lot, and he must be more careful.

Secondly, this reaction also made Hafra feel a lot at ease.

Because this means that the problems they encounter may not cause particularly serious consequences, and there should be room for salvation.

Otherwise, Captain Wayne’s expression will be more solemn.

Finally, since Captain Wayne is willing to give him tips, it proves that he is willing to help.

At this point, in fact, the specific help he can give may not be great, but it is very important to be able to reflect this attitude. It proves that the matter itself is not that serious. Otherwise, it will be the captain of the city defense force. Identity, absolutely dare not participate.

Thinking of this, Hafra breathed out slowly, slowed down, leaned back against the cell wall, closed his eyes, and began to rest.

Nasus glanced at Hafra, tilted his head for a moment, and simply lay directly on the ground, and fell asleep like that.

About an hour later, a sound of footsteps sounded outside the cell.

Hafra opened his eyes and saw that only Captain Wayne had walked over.

And he looked a little cautious when he walked over, and looked around from time to time, looking a little sneaky.

Seeing Captain Wien’s appearance, Hafra’s eyes lit up and he immediately got up and walked to the door of the cell.

Captain Wien walked quickly to the edge of the cell, saw Hafra was already waiting inside, couldn’t help but smile, thinking that this little businessman from outside was clever.

“Team Wien…”

Just three words came out of Hafra’s mouth, and Captain Wayne had already put his finger to his mouth and made a silent gesture.

Hafra immediately shut up and stared at Captain Wayne.

“Listen well, don’t ask too much.” Captain Wayne moved closer and suppressed his voice extremely low. “According to the information I’ve inquired, you have attracted the attention of an incredible big man this time, so you don’t need to expect to be exonerated. But you don’t have to worry, you won’t be punished particularly severely this time, and there will be no danger to your life. . Remember, you will be judged tomorrow, don’t try to argue, admit it honestly. Because this is the result that the big men need. If you don’t cooperate…you know what I mean.”

Hearing what Captain Wayne said with great solemnity, Hafra nodded with a solemn expression, then took a look at the situation outside the cell, then reached into his arms, took out a small purse, and handed it to Captain Wayne.

“Thank you, Captain Wayne, for your help. Please also help me inquire about my eldest brother, which is Prado.”

Captain Wayne hesitated for a moment, and stuffed the purse into his arms.

“I don’t know the specific news of your eldest brother, but I heard that he was only temporarily locked up by the Lord City Lord. There shouldn’t be much problem.”

“Okay, thank you.”

“Remember what I just said, if you want to keep this life, just cooperate a little bit.” After leaving this sentence, Captain Wayne hurried away.

Watching Captain Wien disappear to the far end of the cell, Hafra thought for a while, turned around to wake up the sleeping Nasus, and whispered to him.

###

Three days later, Hafra, Prado and Nasus took a carriage and hurriedly left the city of Lalu.

Nasus turned his head and glanced at the high gate of Laru City, his face full of unwillingness.

“Uncle, did we go back like this?”

Hafra and Prado looked at each other, sighed, shook their heads and said: “Okay, it’s not bad to be able to leave alive this time.”

“But… but they not only confiscated all our money for selling clothes, they also confiscated our magic locomotive, why!” Nasus’s green face was full of anger. “Don’t all the people of the Candela Empire speak the king’s law?”

Prado looked a little embarrassed on the side, but the anger and dissatisfaction in his heart made him not want to say any rebuttals.

When he was suddenly summoned by Lord City Lord three days ago, at first Lord City Lord and the noble lady beside him were more pleasant to him and asked him some questions about the clothes he sold.

At that time, Prado thought that the clothes he sold had actually aroused the interest of the lord of the city and the lady, and he was very happy about it.

But when he explained that the clothes were from the Kingdom of Lampari, the lady suddenly turned her face, and the Lord of the City asked him to be caught directly and sent to prison.

Later, after a trial that was obviously a formality, they were convicted of commercial fraud and deliberate concealment of tax payment. In the end, not only all the income from the sale of these goods was confiscated, but even this time Hafra and Nasus were confiscated. The large freight magic locomotives that were used to transport the goods were all confiscated.

And Prado’s shop in the city of Lalu was directly banned for these two crimes, and it was announced that Prado would no longer be eligible for business.

Counting it down, their direct economic losses this time even exceeded 5,000 gold coins.

It is even more miserable if Prado’s lost stores and business qualifications are included.

Prado has struggled for more than ten years in the city of Lalu, but now he has nothing overnight, and the blow to him can be imagined.

Fortunately, Hafra, who was also released after being detained for three days, comforted him.

Hafra said that Prado can follow him back to the Kingdom of Lampari.

Although the loss of thousands of gold coins this time has dealt a serious blow to Hafra, but with the foundation he has saved in the Lampari Kingdom over the past few years, he can continue to persevere after returning.

And it’s a big blow to them this time, but Hafra and Prado are very convinced that there are a large number of cheap goods in the Lampari Kingdom, and they can sell very good prices when they get the Candela Empire, and there is absolutely no worries about sales. .

This is a very promising and extremely broad market. As long as you grasp it well, you can easily earn a few thousand gold coins.

The only question is what is the cause of Laru City’s actions against them this time.

If this is just the reaction of Laru City, and it is a special case, then there is no problem.

But if this incident reflects the will of the entire Candela Empire, then it is a very serious problem…
