Chapter 657: Gulf Business

Joan looked in the direction of the laughter, and at a glance saw Hailar Green standing at the door of the firm, smiling and waving at himself.
Hailar still wears a pair of ponytails, and his tight leather armor is replaced by a blue skirt with a white shirt. He also has a serious bow tie. Compared with Joan’s impression of the violent young girl wielding a giant sword with one hand, it is a little more dignified and intellectual. Lady temperament.
Joan waved good morning to her, followed her sister Zion to the door of the business house, and looked naturally at the white-haired, well-dressed old gentleman beside Hailar, who looked like Hailar's elder, maybe it was her The "relative" said.
"Introduce to you, this is Mr. Garcia Newman, the manager of the Gulf Business, my father's friend when he was alive. Over the years, I have been taking care of my life and living, treating me like my own daughter."
When Mr. Newman saw Hailar introduce himself to his friends with such solemnity, a touch of emotion flashed in his eyes, and he took off his bowler hat and bowed slightly to the three of Joan.
"Welcome gentlemen and ladies to come to Gulf Business, please allow me to explain a little bit, Miss Green just raised my status, in fact, I am not a business manager, but a servant of Green's family, after the death of the master and his wife, they died My friend, Mr. Herrell in Freeport, adopted a young lady and entrusted me to manage the daily affairs of the Gulf business. For important business, I still have to ask my young lady and all shareholders for their ideas."
Joan listened to Mr. Newman's explanation and couldn't help but cast a surprised look on Hailar. It sounds like Hailar's parents are no longer alive, and her adoptive father is a Freeporter named "Heler", isn't that a coincidence?
Holden also found the same doubt, and tried to ask Hailar: "The Herrell mentioned by Mr. Newman just now, wouldn't it be... The Lord of the Storm Giants in Freeport?"
Hailar nodded without changing his face: "What's so surprising? When we drank and drank together in Freeport, I told you and Joan frankly that the Lord of Freeport was my dad-of course, accurate Said to be the adoptive father."
"Damn it! On that occasion, who would take you seriously? I thought you were bragging!"
"It doesn't matter. At that time, you claimed to be Prince of Canaan. I still don't think you are bragging? Let's say it's even." Hailar said with a smile.
She said something lightly, but Audrey was shocked in her ears, and immediately stopped, throwing a scolding look on her brother.
Holden stomped his feet anxiously, screaming injustice.
"Sister! This can't blame me! I just made a joke casually. At that time Hailar didn't believe it at all. God knows how she took it seriously later..."
Audrey waved her hand to shut up and turned to look at Hailar, her face uncomfortable: "Miss Green, if I guessed right, you might have spent a lot of energy investigating Holden's origin."
"Actually, it doesn't take much trouble, let's sit down and talk."
Hailar invited Joan and Zion's younger brother into the living room on the second floor of the firm to signal the guests to sit down.
"Miss Zion... Maybe I should call you "His Royal Highness" to be etiquette?"
"If you treat me as a friend, you don't have to be so polite." Audrey took a sip of the coffee from Mr. Newman, and her sapphire eyes looked deeply at Hailar sitting opposite him, as if she wanted to see through her heart. Thought: "Can you tell me, how did you find out who I am and Holden?"
"With the help of an organization's intelligence network, the intelligence network spreading across the New World and even the entire Valais world is beyond your imagination." Hailar sold a pass with a smile.
Audrey was curious about the mysterious organization in her mouth, but out of restraint, it was inconvenient to ask immediately. While hesitating, Joan sitting beside her suddenly put a golden badge on the table and immediately attracted everyone's attention in the living room.
"Does the organization you're talking about refer to the'Children of Freedom Association'?" Joan pointed to the badge on the table and asked Hailar.
The badge depicts a gold snake cut into eight segments, which is the emblem of "Son of Freedom".
"Joan, why do you have this thing!" This time Hailar was taken aback, looking back and forth between the badge and Joan, and tentatively asked, "Are you also a member of our association?"
"I am not a member of the "Son of Freedom", but I am familiar with the two senior members of the association. They gave me this badge and this letter."
Joan put the cover letter that Ms Miranda gave him on the table. Judging from the reaction of Hailar just now, she is obviously a member of the "Son of Freedom" association, and it would be no problem to show Miranda a letter.
Hailar quickly opened the envelope, hurriedly scanned it, and looked up at Joan again, with a little respect in his eyes.
"I didn’t expect you to have such a high position in the minds of Mr. Adams and Ms. Fisher, especially Ms. Miranda Fisher, as the highest person in charge of the association in the Alfheim region, ranks second in our organization. Yu Adams and two other founders."
"Ms. Fischer said in the letter that you are her benefactor, and repeatedly asked the colleagues of the association to take care of you as much as possible to provide you with as much convenience as possible. With her letter here, even if you do not formally join our association, you can still enjoy the benefits of senior members. Treatment, to be honest, I am a little jealous of you!"
"Excuse me, please allow me to interject," Holden could not help but say, "I have been in the New World for almost two months, and I have heard about the criticism of the "Son of Freedom" Association, and people say it is a Illegal organization that smuggles and sells fortune... Hailar, are you really like this?"
Hailar shrugged and replied lightly: "Smuggling and selling stolen goods are facts, but you asked me if these businesses are illegal? Then I would like to ask you, the laws laid down by the imperial government to monopolize the import and export trade of colonies, to us colonies Is it really fair and reasonable for residents? I can’t answer your question without first clarifying this question.

"Well, I have to admit that the law always protects the interests of some people intentionally or unintentionally, and at the same time inevitably damages the interests of another group of people. They stand on different positions and have different opinions on this issue."
"Is the ordinance enforced by the imperial authorities in the colony of the New World fair or not? Whether your smuggling activities are forced to resist or deliberately commit crimes does not matter to me, a foreigner. Which side is enough."
Holden answered carelessly.
