Time flies, and it has been nearly five years since Loran Hill came to the empire.

"Excuse me, is Master Jialan here?"

In the quiet room, there was a knock on the hardwood door and a questioning voice came.

"Come in." A light voice responded from within the room.

"Thanks."

The afternoon sun was still quite strong, and the world outside the window was particularly dazzling, while this office room was much cooler and quieter.

Loran Hill sat on the chair in a comfortable white dress, her light blue hair falling on her back and in front of her body, complementing her fair neck.

Now that the 'Fairywood' organization is relatively complete, she doesn't have many things to deal with, so she is a little curious about who is looking for her.

"Hello, Lord Jialan, I am Sosifa from Chuiyi Province." The man was wearing a smart white shirt and military trousers.

"Your Excellency may not recognize me, for I am not a member of the Fairywood."

"However, I have cooperated with the organization for a long time and have provided much-needed supplies in many ways before, which is why I have gained their trust."

"Then why are you here today?" Loran Hill gently supported his head with one hand, and his white and slender wrist was exposed from his sleeve.

She is mainly responsible for education, law construction, publicity and guidance in "Fairywood". Regarding trade and taxation, it is Lu Bin and others who are in charge, so she is a little unfamiliar.

"Actually, I have some questions for you, sir."

He bowed before speaking.

"A lot of changes have taken place within the empire. In particular, the new emperor has begun to emulate the reforms of the southern border, and this trend has gradually spread to the borders of the empire."

"I can say that I am one of the people who benefited the most from the growth and expansion of the organization. Now I also have quite a few businesses in the local area."

He began to introduce his own industry in detail, including a large steel plant built in the local area and the mining rights to several mines.

"It can be said that compared to ordinary people, I do have greater influence, but I also want to ask you a question, that is, can I get more protection?" He looked at the girl who looked like his daughter and asked sincerely.

In fact, Sosifa's coming here today was not just his personal idea. There were also many similar big chamber of commerce owners and factory owners who wanted to use this opportunity to explore the arrangements of the "Fairywood" organization for them.

Later, they found Sosifa, who had close ties with the organization but did not belong to the "Fairywood" organization.

"Is that so?"

Loran Hill was thoughtful. She gently rang the bell and asked Iena, who was resting next door, to come over and put a chair for Mr. Sosifa.

Soon after, the maid had someone bring in a wooden chair and more tea.

"What kind of protection do you want?"

Loran Hill looked at the man and continued to ask questions. She guessed that he must have heard about what happened recently in the Imperial Parliament, so he asked this question.

"Uh...how should I put it? I'm not craving for superhuman power. I know that's not recognized by the organization."

"But I also hope that I won't be framed or manipulated so easily."

"You know, sir, when someone possesses immense wealth, it's inevitable that others will become jealous, and so they will resort to unconventional means, such as framing someone or making false accusations."

"For them, the cost is not high, but if they succeed, they can reap huge profits, so some people will take the risk."

"What are the details?"

"For example, let's put it this way. According to the organization's laws, factories are not allowed to mistreat their employees or conceal safety hazards."

"I did follow the instructions above, but what should I do if someone deliberately forges the information or pretends to be a worker to enter my factory and falsely accuses me of doing something bad?"

"Things like this are often difficult to distinguish. If they came frequently, I might have been arrested by the Legal Correction Team."

"That's the first point. They can try to profit from me at a small cost."

"The second point is how should I respond when some petty officials use their power to blackmail me?"

"Most people in the organization are good people, I deeply believe that, but there are occasionally one or two people with bad character. They may not earn much each month, so they use their position to deliberately block me and make things difficult for me. How should I deal with it?"

"If I oppose them, does that mean I'm opposing the organization? If they detain me under the pretext of enforcing the law, what should I do?"

"You might say I can appeal through the law, but when I was imprisoned, I lost my freedom and security, which was a terrifying thing."

Although his expression was somewhat obscure, Loran Hill vaguely guessed his real intention, which was to obtain a certain amount of power protection.

It’s not that this person is a bad person or anything like that, he just hopes that his wealth can be kept safe and long-term.

In fact, these problems have appeared in past lives, and the methods adopted by different countries are also different. Some people use proxies to isolate themselves and protect themselves from any possible threats. Others directly gain a certain degree of power and enter the upper class of society.

"I think I understand what you mean." The girl looked at the man and nodded, but she didn't want to answer directly.

"We will establish relevant laws in the future to punish those who make false accusations, and we will also conduct internal audits and continuously correct mistakes."
