Chapter seventy-three: Conflict

Ceremonies have always been a waste of time, money, and energy, without any substantive significance. But throughout history, those in positions of power have enjoyed playing these boring tricks the most. As the protagonist of today, Jedi also had to reluctantly cooperate with everyone to carry out boring activities.

Cutting the ribbon, delivering a speech, and reading out a congratulatory letter from the Duke of Norman, the guests presented enthusiastic blessings and gifts, and hung a brand new plaque reading "The First Financing Bank of the Duchy" together with General von Herl. The atmosphere was about to reach its climax, and just as the party was about to be held, a servant hurriedly walked into the hall and loudly said, "Mr. Jedi, Mr. Gibson has sent a congratulatory gift

Gibson? "Not only General von Hel and Jedi were stunned, but all the guests in the room immediately fell silent.

The enmity between General von Herr and Chancellor of the Exchequer Mel Gibson is well known, as von Herr sidelined Mel Gibson and became the first powerful minister of the Norman Duchy under the Grand Duke. And Jedi, with the support of von Hel, brought down President Gibson and became the first president of the Principality's First Financing Bank.

At this point, will the retired President Gibson give him a congratulatory gift?

After a moment of silence in the hall, people immediately started whispering. General von Herl suddenly burst out laughing and said loudly, "Okay! Since Mr. Gibson has a gift, let me present it to broaden everyone's horizons. Otherwise, curious nobles may not have the heart to drink to their hearts' content.

The servants looked at Jedi, who nodded calmly and said, "Please bring Mr. Gibson's people and his gifts

The visitor was the old butler that Jedi had seen before. He was dressed in a neat dress, spotlessly clean, just like the host of the banquet. Behind him, there were four burly men carrying a rosewood rack, covered with red silk, and lifted it up to the hall.

General von Herl stroked his beard and watched coldly. He didn't believe that his nephew, who had been abandoned by Mel Gibson, would dare to do anything wrong at this moment. Now, he was a staunch advocate in the Duchy, even Mel Gibson, who was cunning and had the support of the entire House of Lords, dared not underestimate him, let alone the disgraced President Gibson.

The old butler bowed to General von Herl and Giddy, saying with a wry smile, "Hello, respected General von Herl, President Jeddy, and all the adults. Today is the day when President Jeddy is honored as the President of the First Financing Bank of the Duchy. As the former President of the Banking Association and a member of the Goldsmiths Banking Industry, Mr. Gibson is very happy. However, he is not feeling well and cannot come to congratulate in person. Therefore, I will come to congratulate him on behalf of him and bring him gifts

Please thank Mr. Gibson for his kindness on my behalf! "Jedi politely replied, curious as he looked at the thing covered by the red cloth, which looked quite small. What could it be?

The old butler turned around with a smile and gently waved his hand. The four big men put the shelves on the ground and slowly pulled open the red cloth covering them. The hall was filled with astonishment and admiration, exclaiming, "So beautiful!" and "So majestic!" Some people praised him, and General Feng Hel's expression relaxed as he smiled and nodded slowly.

But only Jedi, his eyes darkened and his face suddenly turned snow-white

Jedi, are you okay? "Helen asked anxiously. Jedi sat in the chair, staring ahead without saying a word.

With great perseverance, he persisted until the end of the entire banquet, bidding farewell to General von Hel and his guests. As soon as he returned to the room, he had transformed into this appearance.
