Vol 3 Chapter 33: Schweizer

It was Constantine ’s hilltop villa. This time Alexander took Carlo to the appointment. (Pinyin of biqiwu)
What happened in front of the Rome City Hall made Alexander vigilant.
Originally thought that the maid should just be bought, and the gangsters were just ordinary robbers who wanted to make a fortune, but the scene of hijacking the execution ground made Alexander realize that things should not be so simple.
Those people obviously have very detailed plans, and they may even hear the news when the French have just decided to execute the woman, so they can make various preparations in advance at the execution ground.
If it were not for Sophia's unexpected killing of the woman with a short crossbow, their plan was successful.
And to enable them to rescue at such a cost, the woman is obviously not as simple as being bought.
In other words, these people have buried a spy next to Joanna, and now it is not so simple to think about Joanna's assassination.
At this time, Alexander was a little secretly glad that Joanna had stayed in the Portico Palace of Lucrezia.
At least that way, those people will move their targets to the Borgias instead of staring at the Marino Palace.
It was just after the morning thing that Alexander had to order to strengthen the defense of the Marino Palace, and at the same time he became careful.
Constantine had apparently also heard of what happened in the town hall. A guard was apparently assigned outside the hilltop villa, watching those wearing helmets like raised ridges, and the hem of thick cotton robes hanging to the knees, holding The guards with spears and swords, Alexander could not help turning his head to look at the Carlo next to him.
I don't know if my Agri people will one day play against these tough but strong Swiss.
Then Alexander prayed secretly, I hope this kind of thing will not happen so early, because he knows that at least the current Agri people are definitely not Swiss opponents.
Constantine had been waiting at the door of the villa, and it was obvious to Alexander that Constantine's attitude seemed to have changed slightly.
He knew the reason for this change, it should be because he talked to Charlene and Giovanni separately.
Although many people are already aware of the fighting in the Bruini Valley, it is a bit distant after all. In addition to adding a topic of ridicule to the French, the impression of Alexander is nothing more than a rural lord from Naples.
Maybe he can fight, but it is obviously a rude guy. In the eyes of many people, he is an adventurer who comes out of the world with a group of mercenaries turned from farmers.
There are many such people in this chaotic era. There are always people who are not willing to lonely try to change their own destiny. Some people succeed, but most people end up with nothing or simply lose their lives.
Not everyone can become Sforza.
But this time is different.
In order to prevent the revenge of the gangsters, he asked Charlene to increase his protection. In fact, he created an excuse for the Roman nobility to re-arm himself, and his subsequent request to Giovanni was unabashed. Demonstrating the ambition to establish an identity among the Romans, it finally made people pay attention to this little country lord from Naples.
Constantine took Alexander into the villa, but this time instead of staying in the courtyard when he last met, he walked through a coherent corridor to a quiet courtyard in the back.
This courtyard is located at the back of the hill, and a steep downhill extends to the bank of the Tiber River in the distance. The surrounding wall of the courtyard is not high, almost only to the chest of the person, and there is a long row under the wall You can see the view of Rome in the distance by sitting on the seat and leaning on the surrounding wall.
On the seat under the fence, a woman holding the book could see it, hearing her footsteps, she raised her head, and then looked at Alexander with a slightly curious look.
This is a young woman who looks very elegant. Unlike Constantine ’s blonde, her hair and eyes are deep black, and her face is more rounded and calmer, and Constantine This kind of angularity is very different.
Unlike Lucrezia's surprising beauty, this is a woman of ordinary and unobtrusive appearance, or if no one knows, no one will see that she and Constantine are siblings.
"Please allow me to introduce, my sister Valentina de la Rovere." Constantine introduced to Alexander.
"And you are the Gombré from Agrig?" Barendi de la Rovere took the initiative to take the first two steps without waiting for Constantine's recommendation and said to Alexander "About your feat in the city hall today I have heard about it, and I have to say that you surprised the whole of Rome. "
As she said, she looked at Alexander seriously, as if to see something in his face.
Alexander knew that Barendi de la Rovere ’s so-called feat was obviously not to say that he had prevented a robbery, but that he publicly announced to the French that he would mobilize the guards outside Rome into the city.
Speaking of this move, it seems impulsive, and even too reckless. After all, the French ca n’t tolerate someone challenging their authority, but Alexander ’s timing is just right, when the French were so stunned and unable to explain because of the accidental abduction of the execution ground. As the victim of repeated attacks, Alexander took the opportunity to announce this decision, which made the French simply unable to refute.
"I just have to do my duty. After all, Queen Joanna's safety is of the utmost importance." Alexander did not deny the suggestion of Barendi that if he had to negotiate with the Rovere family yesterday, he was still suspected of blackmail and passed the city hall. After the incident, he found that the identity of his negotiation with the Rovere family had subtly changed.
"I heard that you made some suggestions to my brother, maybe we can talk about them," Barendi invited Alexander to sit down at a table in the middle of the courtyard, and then she had a smile on her face. Suddenly I said, "I'm a little curious about your suggestions. I think you should know that your suggestions will hurt the interests of our Luo Weilei family. Why do you think we accept this unhelpful condition?" This Barenti gestured to Constantine, who was about to speak, to stop him, and then went on to say, "I know that maybe you think we need the support of the French, so you must accept these conditions. If you think so, Rovere is wrong. The family has been in Genoa for many years. Even when our father had to flee to France and it was the most difficult time for the family, the Genoese still love and support the Rovere family, so even if there is no French, the Rovere family can still have Enough to protect your prestige and strength, so why do you think we should accept your suggestion? "
Alexander had been listening to Barenti calmly.
From the moment he heard that it was this illegitimate daughter of Luo Weilei's family, he knew that he might have to face a very powerful opponent.
In a world where men dominate everything, women who often stand out often have wrists that are much stronger and stronger than men. Only in this way can men be obedient and obedient, Isabella of Castile is like this, Free The same is true of tigress, and this Valentina de la Rovere will not be an exception.
But Alexander did not expect that this woman would be so powerful. She neither borrowed her identity to suppress others, nor did she care about entanglement. Instead, she came up and told the other party directly: Yours are worth nothing in my eyes!
If you change to someone else, the face of this situation may be completely defeated by the woman at the beginning, or at least be suppressed by the momentum she showed.
Looking at Barrendi's ordinary face that was not outstanding, Alexander understood why Luo Weilei would give the family to this illegitimate girl.
This is an extremely tough woman, or a warrior.
"Miss Count, I think you probably completely misunderstood what I meant, and my suggestion is not a threat."
Alexander knew that the Rovere family had an earl family title. Giuliano della Rovere had given up the title to become the Cardinal, and this title is now inherited by Constantine.
Hearing Alexander ’s reply with a convincing meaning, the young woman ’s face was faintly proud, and she refrained from glancing at Constantine next to him, to see the Napoliese gangster whom he described as difficult to deal with. She was defeated immediately after the confrontation, and she believed Constantine's complexion should not be so pretty.
Alexander also noticed the slight change in Barrondi ’s face, and he did n’t care to continue: "I just want to tell you a result. If you reject my suggestion, then I can guarantee that it will not be long before you will find out The business of the Rowley family will become more and more difficult to do. This is the threat. "
Balenti's face first appeared suspicious, as if she suspected that she had heard it wrong, and then she was stunned in her eyes.
She stared at Alexander like a madman. For a time, she seemed to be wondering if she had misunderstood or the other party had just sent her a threat to attack the entire Rovere family business.
"I think it might be better to say something clearly," Alexander said, ignoring Barendi. Since yesterday, he has decided that today's negotiations will start from a surprise to the other party in a completely unexpected way. , And the sudden City Hall incident undoubtedly added a lot of chips to his idea, but he did n’t expect this Barenti and him to think of a place with him, and came up with a single-handed straight-in "We all know Rovere The Chamber of Commerce is more about doing business with France and the lowlands in the north. This is of course because of the good relationship between the archbishop and the French and the location of Genoa. Compared with other Mediterranean cities, Genoa can be reached more easily. Lowland area. "
Alexander said that he randomly drew a line on the table and saw Balenti looking at him with a slight frown. He continued: "As far as I know, if the French completely failed in this war, it might even be because of Even Piedmont ca n’t control it, then Genoa ’s access to the north will be cut off. After all, the Duke of Milan ’s coveted Piedmont is well known, and King Charlie would rather sacrifice tens of thousands of methods for the sake of his own interests. The team also refused to agree to my terms, and I do n’t know what they would feel. "
Alexander's words made Balendi's face suddenly sink, and Constantine next to him also showed his anger.
Ignoring the change in the look of the brothers and sisters in front of me, Alexander continued to say: "As far as I do n’t think what the countess said, even without the support of the French, another reason is that as far as I know, your father, the Archbishop of Genoa, The position of the cardinal, and you are very important to your family. After all, since Pope Sixtus, the Rovere family has not been in the Holy See for a long time. This is really not the case for the Rovere family. What a good thing, after all, the relationship between the Borgia family and your family is not harmonious. If the archbishop cannot become a cardinal, once the French completely fail, then perhaps the archbishop will repeat the fleeing again, but this time I do n’t know if the French will Will not welcome him. "
Balenti's angry face slightly changed. She frowned and sat invisible slightly. Her eyes became serious and stared at Alexander's face, as if to see from his expression that these words were Really know what, or just bluffing after hearsay.
"But these are not the most important things," Alexander continued to speak for himself. "After all, even as I said, the Rovere family suffered a heavy loss, but if the Rovere family did not sign a treaty with me, it would be of no benefit to me. , So that ’s what I ’m talking about next.

Speaking of which, Alexander picked up the wine glass on the table and said that so many words would inevitably be thirsty, and also let the pair think about the impact of the previous words on them ~ EbookFREE.me ~ When watching By the time Impatiently vaguely revealed impatientness, Alexander knew it was almost there.
For many things, whoever loses patience first loses initiative.
"The Loviré family is indeed the Genoese family, but it is not the only family, nor the only chamber of commerce," Alexander stood up slowly, looking at the noble lady in front of him. "I will negotiate with other Genoa families and chambers of commerce. Sign the treaty I proposed with them, and then my goods can still be stored on the docks of the Chamber of Commerce in the port of Genoa, and their goods can also receive the same preferential treatment in Naples and Taranto, and these places will have Venice in the future. , Palermo, there can even be places like Milan and Bologna, and all these businessmen can have the opportunity to buy more goods with less money than the Rovere family. What do you think will happen in the future, and While I was constantly searching for business partners, the Loveley family was dealing with the mess that was caused by arrogance before. "Speaking of which, Alexander looked at Constantine, who was slightly sluggish, and then he finally looked at Changed Barendi and said, "Countess, please believe me, unless you are willing to accept me Kindness, or else I just described can achieve. "
After that, under the complex gaze of the siblings. Alexander bowed slightly and turned towards the outside of the villa.
