Chapter 213 Harold: Why don’t we…
"Alhaisen, stop making sarcastic remarks over there. Don't forget that you are also the mastermind!" Kavi said dissatisfiedly.
"I am just a poor scholar who took a well-paid translation job and knew nothing about the client's situation.
The work commissioned by the client is indeed a niche, but there is no shortage of scholars within Zhilun School who need to purchase such documents.
I don’t want to know what he wants to do with the fruits of my labor. I don’t have such a strong desire to pry into his private lives. He pays me and I do things for him, that’s all.”
Elhaisen said as he looked at Senor and asked calmly, "So, can His Excellency the Grand Disciplinary Officer accept this?"
"It was an unintentional mistake that did not cause serious consequences. According to the fatwa, up to 60 percent of the illegal gains will be confiscated."
Senor paused, then said, "If you are involved in this, then do it this way - Kawi, the same goes for you. You'd better ask El Haisen to prepare a set for you."
"Haha, don't rush to find ways to distance yourself from the matter. As long as it is handled properly, the mercenaries in Xumi City will be safe. If they are safe, we will naturally be safe." Harold said.
"I'm just answering Kawi's previous question. I don't think this alternative plan is necessary this time. I have a better suggestion for the mercenaries in Xumi City now."
After saying this, Elhaisen paused deliberately.
Coincidentally, I also thought of an idea. No, to be more precise, it was a countermeasure that I had prepared long before I decided to sell textbooks.
Harold thought.
At this time, shouldn’t we say: Why don’t we write down our ideas on our hands and see if our ideas are consistent?
...
Forget it. If I really say that, I feel like El Haisen will think I’m an idiot.
No one here understands the value of the Red Cliff Group.
Harold was quite helpless.
No one responded, and Kavi was still urging him with his eyes, so Elhaisen continued to talk:
"In front of the Ministry of Education, collect all the textbooks from the mercenaries."
Kavi was surprised and asked, "What a stupid idea you came up with. How long will it take? We only have one and a half days!"
El Haisen: "Really? Who has been diverting the topic from the beginning? I thought the situation was not urgent.
——In my opinion, if we go fast, one day will be more than enough.”
"Mr. Elhaisen, what should we do specifically?" asked Setale.
Although Kavi still wanted to argue with Elhaisen, he thought about the time and swallowed his anger, planning to settle the score with him later.
Seno folded his arms and leaned forward slightly, as if he was listening attentively.
Harold made a "please" gesture to Elhaisen, and as expected, he received a sidelong glance.
"The only person who can do this is someone that all the mercenaries trust, the seller of the book, and also a kind-hearted philanthropist in their eyes."
Setare murmured, "...Dolly?"
Seno: "It will take six hours to go to Omos Harbor for help. I think it won't be too late to prepare to recover the textbooks by then."
"Don't bother. Merchants like Dolly have several spokespeople everywhere. When she sells textbooks, she will also let several trusted subordinates come forward. As for how to find those people——"
Elhaisen's green eyes turned to Harold, and the others followed suit.
The ball flew towards him, about to hit his head, and Harold had to catch it:
“I know them. I’m pretty familiar with a few of them. I immediately wrote to inform them and asked them to collect the textbooks at the mercenary station opened by Dolly.
To prevent the mercenaries from panicking and causing unnecessary unrest that would draw the attention of the Order, and to ensure the safety of us "masterminds",
In order to prevent traitors from informing on you and putting Senior Setare in danger, I will have them post a new message in the tavern:
'Master Dolly has updated the textbook. The new edition has added several articles and notes to the old edition, and some illustrations have also been changed. The new edition of the textbook will be more understandable than the old edition.
The new book will be officially released in half a month, and the old book can be exchanged for a new one for free, only for one day. '.
Even if the old... ahem, the great sage got the news that the textbooks were taken away by the merchants, the search warrant he issued to search the mercenaries' residences would not be able to search all the merchants in Xumi City,
Merchants are not as easy to bully as mercenaries. If they are really pushed to the limit, they will go on strike. For the sake of our harmony and stability in Xumi City, the Great Sage will publicly apologize within a few days, and then we will continue to sell the new edition of textbooks."
As for the collected textbooks, Dolly will transport them to the desert and sell them to the desert people, thus realizing the recycling of textbooks. The main purpose is to avoid waste.
Harold thought secretly.
"That's a good idea." Seno nodded in approval. "This way, we can quickly recover most of the textbooks without causing a riot."
After listening to what the two said, Setale couldn't help but smile.
She knew that Lord Harold would have a way to resolve this crisis, and she was right about him.
Kavi quickly pushed the paper and pen in front of Harold and asked anxiously, "Then write it now? Is there anything else you need to prepare?"
Harold shook his head, picked up the feather pen and dipped it in ink: "I will start writing now, senior, help me release my dusk bird."
Kavi walked quickly to the super luxurious bird cage in the living room and opened the door.
Hearing the door opening, the Evening Bird cried out happily, flapped its wings and flew towards where the four people were sitting, landed exactly on top of Elhaisen's head, folded its wings and squatted down.
"It still likes your head so much." Kavi walked back to his seat and teased.
Elhaisen was already used to it, and at this moment he continued to read without changing his expression.
Setale and Seno just glanced at him for a few more times, then looked away and waited quietly for Harold to finish writing the letter.
"It's written."
A minute later, Harold rolled up a few notes and reached out to the Dusk Bird. The Dusk Bird reluctantly left the head that had just been warmed up and flew to Harold's shoulder.
Harold put the letter into the mailbox, whispered a few names, and then opened a chrysalis for the dusk bird.
After the evening bird finished eating, it chirped happily again, flapped its wings, and flew out of the window.
The departure of the dusk bird seemed to have taken away all the negative emotions, and the atmosphere in the house suddenly became relaxed.
However, the five people did not mention academic matters anymore, but continued to discuss the next emergency measures, trying to minimize the damage.
After talking for a while, feeling that there were no omissions, Seno naturally transitioned the topic to the gains from his desert trip.
As soon as he opened his mouth, he announced a bombshell: "I blew up the 'Garden of Silence'."
Said Seno in a calm tone.
The others who heard this were not so calm, and Kavi's mouth almost opened into an "O" shape.
