章 354: 352 Conspiracy_1

Butter Tavern.

With the merchants having left, only Arnold sat alone at his table, pouring wine into his mouth one glass after another.

This gathering, filled with Arnold's high expectations, can only be said to be a total failure.

However, judging from the absent-minded and perfunctory attitudes of the merchants afterwards, Arnold realized that his Northland Businessmen Association was but a laughingstock.

Fear, confusion, anger, indignation... All these emotions were constantly changing on his face. This once influential businessman in the North Territory surprisingly emitted an unspeakable sense of desolation.
