Chapter 269 The visit of the alchemy barons
Hank felt that someone must die again today, because early this morning, a lot of big shots came to his door.
"Lannar, what kind of wind brought you here today?"
He looked at a 'lady' who had had most of her body replaced by a Hex prosthetic body, but could still see his former appearance. She greeted her and performed a slight morning ritual.
"Ah, well, although my industry has not been affected too much, well... the other people who came with me are not like this, so you know, it is because of this that I have to come."
This elegant lady, but whose limbs had completely turned into machines, took a puff of cigarette first, and then said these words leisurely. And Hank had long been familiar with the methods of these Zaans.
It's just a boring change of strength and weakness, if you don't come, you will be killed by others joining forces.
Typical of Zaun's inferior tactics.
Hank cursed in his heart, but he did not show it. Instead, he looked directly at other very impressive people. Among these people, there were people he was familiar with and some he was unfamiliar with.
But this did not prevent him from issuing tactful rejections and warnings to the alchemy barons who blocked his door early in the morning.
"Horns, Spindler, and gentlemen. Why are you here so early? You must know that although I am willing to help you, as a humble social instrument, I cannot talk to you.
The capitalists are too involved, otherwise Mr. Li Ke will be very angry. And this morning he will continue to make changes to workers' working hours and welfare benefits. I am afraid that some people will be hanged again, so I must go there quickly.
So that the vacant places can be filled with selfless managers.”
His warning is obvious, that is, if you are ignorant, or if you want to threaten him to do something, then he will directly throw some problematic things to their men, and then within a few days, that person will
The diligent gentleman will directly find these well-hidden guys, hang them all, and blow the sea breeze on the street lamps with the previous ruling families of Piltover.
"I'm sorry to disturb you, Mr. Hank, but we do have something important to report to His Majesty."
Spindler stood up. He was a little slovenly, but this had absolutely to do with his main business being murder and destruction. And although he smelled of blood and engine oil, it was actually better than Hank's hug yesterday.
The child cleaning the chimney he kissed was much better. So Hank was surprised to find that he no longer disliked the smell of the alchemist baron and could breathe it as normal air.
"What is the important matter? Sir, you must know that our Majesty is most concerned about the people at the bottom. The recent lack of jobs has made him a little irritated, so you'd better say something important."
Hank didn't want to worsen his image in front of Li Ke because of some messy things, so when he did this, he seemed to remind and repeat the warning. But when he heard his words,
The alchemist baron, whose main business is destruction and murder, laughed. It was obvious that he was fully sure and confident in what they were going to say.
"That's what I'm talking about, jobs, sir, big deals from elsewhere."
Spindler's smile was very bright, and it really attracted Hank's attention.
"What big order?"
The Alchemist Baron looked around, then leaned close to Hank's ear.
"Our Majesty's hometown is about to take big steps."
So, when Li Ke met the workers who produced a certain high-risk alchemical compound in a neat office building, consulted their opinions, and modified his treatment of special workers, the person he saw was
A group of people who are dressed luxuriously and have a vaguely dangerous aura. Moreover, these people are also very unique: many key parts of their bodies have been replaced by Hex technology products, and they are different from those counterfeit products.
Unlike other Hex products, Li Ke could easily feel the energy of these Hex products on their bodies, as well as the stable operation of the 'magic circles'.
In other words, the large number of gadgets on these people are all genuine Hex products, and the quality and grade are very high.
And they are not the people he wants to see.
"I was originally supposed to meet with the plumbers to ask them about their opinions on sewers and their requirements for treatment, right Hank?"
Plumbers in Zaun and Piltover don't just hold wrenches to repair pipes, or have various safety measures like modern society. Plumbers here not only have to climb hundreds of meters of rusted pipes all day long;
Most of the time, their protective equipment is just hemp rope and some crude tools. From time to time, they have to drill into sludge pools filled with highly toxic and strong acids, and they are attacked or robbed because they witness murders and robberies.
In fact, the probability of the latter is almost the same as their probability of falling to death.
Moreover, most of the pipelines in Zaun and Piltover are still above or below residential buildings, and some have simply become residential buildings. So the work of these people has become very scary, but this city cannot do without them. So Li Ke
He gave them enough time to prepare to talk to the plumbers he had taken the time to go to the street to select yesterday. But now, the plumbers did not come. What came was a group of people who could not be ordinary people at first glance.
"They insisted that they could solve all the troubles you are currently experiencing, and...well, they did bring a lot of orders."
Hank quickly explained, his face was full of panic, but Li Ke's ears could prove that the old fox's heartbeat was not speeding up at all, and the fear was completely lying to him.
"Let me see."
Li Ke didn't pay attention to the people sitting in front of him at the first time, but stretched out his hand to Hank, and Hank also took a document very wisely, so that Li Ke could carefully understand this big list. And
Li Ke also had expectations. After all, the order represented trade, which was absolutely beneficial to him in revitalizing the two cities. But when he saw clearly what the order was about, he couldn't help but frown.
eyebrow.
"Alchemical poison? Is this what you call a big list?"
His question seemed to make people misjudge something, so the alchemist baron named Horns, a Zaun ruler who controlled many factories, spoke.
"Dear Lord Li Ke, my name is Horns. This order is for our products. And our alchemical poisons are very effective in Ionia. They easily defeated the Ionians.
The line of defense. The damn magic of those Ionians is nothing in the face of these poisons."
Li Ke was stunned for a moment, not knowing whether this guy was really stupid or had something to rely on. But just because of his stunned skills, the guy said another sentence.
"Moreover, for the order from your hometown Noxus, they are very sincere because of you."
He made a money gesture as a metaphor for the share Noxus gave him.
And then.
