"Phew~"
Pompey, having pondered this for a moment, let out a heavy sigh, rubbed his temples, then turned to Amur and said:
"Bring out the route map."
Upon hearing this, Amur immediately became trembling with fear. As both a bodyguard and his personal assistant, he was flustered and struggled for a long time before finally pulling out a neatly folded map from his bag and presenting it with both hands.
Seeing Amur's snail-paced pace, Pompey said nothing, but immediately unfolded the blueprints to examine them, searching for the location of the Son of Calydon.
Suddenly, he frowned: "According to the information on the distribution map, it seems that the son of Calydon has not drawn a good route in recent years, and his luck is bad."
"Luck? You call repeatedly drawing the worst lines luck?"
Lucy was seething with hatred and couldn't help but hug his barren chest, making sarcastic remarks.
"Little girl, it's good to have your own personality, but don't go overboard."
Pompey raised his eyes to look at Lucy, then closed the map in his hand and said in a deep voice:
"However, regardless of the circumstances, it's a fact that Wildfire Town is on the verge of collapse. How about this..."
“Recently, I reached an agreement with several areas adjacent to the old oil well area to share a highway, thus opening up at least five new freight routes to the old oil well area. How about Kaludon’s son take charge of three of these routes for the next six months?”
Upon hearing this, Lucy, her small face cold, analyzed, "An agreement with several neighboring regions? You mean, you're giving up the benefits that should belong to the Triumphs, and instead handing them over to others?"
"Although it's just a coincidence, you're all on the verge of starvation."
Pompey couldn't help but glance at Lucius again before turning away in disappointment.
"Tch, Wright... huh?"
Seeing Pompey's state, Lucy was about to wave her hand and have Wright release Lucius when she suddenly sensed a warm sensation approaching.
Caesar leaned closer and whispered in Lucy's ear, "Hey, Lucy, is what he said true? Are these routes really that good?"
"If what he said is true, then it can indeed solve the long-standing problem between us and Wildfire Town. Moreover, because the route has been expanded, the income of other motorcyclists will also increase significantly."
Lucy answered truthfully.
"Oh ho, Wright, let them go."
Upon hearing Lucy's words, Caesar immediately became happy. Seeing Lucius slowly walking over and stretching his shoulders, Caesar slapped him on the back and pushed him heavily toward Pompey.
"ah!"
Lucius screamed in agony. Despite being a girl, Caesar's blow was incredibly powerful. Lucius felt a burning sensation in his back and his bones ached terribly.
"you..."
Lucius turned around, his eyes widening in fury, his gaze as fierce as a jackal's fixed on Caesar.
However, Caesar didn't care at all; instead, he proudly stood with his hands on his hips, in an extremely pleasant mood.
"Hey, sir, your conditions are indeed quite good, but you seem to have misunderstood one thing—the Hellfire Ride is imminent, and it's still uncertain who will be the overlord and who will allocate the routes!"
"If I were to allocate the routes, I would definitely be fairer than you!"
Lucius was utterly enraged. The pent-up anger from being arbitrarily detained by Calydon's son finally erupted, and he roared in a piercing voice:
"A bunch of shameless scoundrels, don't even dream about it. You can't even govern a small Wildfire Town, yet you want to... Brother Pompey?"
Pompey shook his head, not letting Lucius continue: "You've done enough today, now go and rest."
"But Brother Pompey..."
"Um?"
Lucius was about to say something when Pompey glared at him, shutting him up.
Even though he was unwilling, he had no choice but to swallow his pride and comply.
"Yes, I understand."
Lucius withdrew subtly, and no one noticed the coldness in his eyes.
As for Pompey, he looked at Caesar with great interest.
If he were young, Pompey would have dealt with him swiftly the moment he heard anyone attempting to challenge his authority.
But now Pompey is old, his hair is white, and his temperament has long changed. Not only does he no longer hold prejudices against Caesar's presumptuous words, but he also has an inexplicable expectation in his heart.
What to look forward to?
Do you expect her to make the outer ring road a better place?
I'm getting old; I can't believe I'm fantasizing about things like this.
Pompey shook his head, then suddenly laughed loudly, "Hahaha, good! You've got quite the nerve! Let me see how you perform during your Hellfire Ride!"
Having said that, Pompey turned and left, his back view appearing much more relaxed than when he arrived, and he slapped Lucius on the shoulder heavily.
"Let's go, you've really surprised me."
