Gold coin is justice - Chapter 1328
Ariel stretched out her hand, put her arms around the waist of sweet wine cheese, put her in her arms, and said with a frightened face: “I’m sorry, it’s really… It’s because my wife is too scared. We were robbed by people dressed as soldiers… But when we finally got here, we saw that you were also fully armed. My wife was frightened and I didn’t dare to contact you anyway… So, won’t you really rob us? ”
The middle-aged man nodded gently, stretched out his hand, pointed to the middle of the village and said, “you’ve been working hard these days. Since you escaped from blue bay, that’s our guest. Come on, sit down and have a good rest. I’ll treat you well first. ”
When the middle-aged man said this, the princess who was held in Ariel’s arms was a little relieved. For a moment, she suddenly felt that the maid seemed to forgive her rudeness.
When she got to the middle of the village, she immediately smelled the smell of rice noodles floating in the air, which was too attractive for her who had been hungry all day and night. This strong attraction was enough for her to stop caring about what Ariel offended herself.
Just
For sweet wine cheese, she may have no feeling, but simply followed the middle-aged man.
But let Ariel see that when they entered the village, the heavily armed villagers around them were still staring at themselves. At the same time, they also vaguely wrapped both of them in a posture of encirclement, forming a posture of wrapping and clamping.
Arrive in the middle of the village, where there is a table and four stumps. The middle-aged man asked Ariel and sweet wine cheese to sit down here first, then stepped into a small house on the side, and a moment later, brought out two bowls of noodles.
See noodles, sweet wine and cheese lick your lips, your eyes shine immediately!
However, when she reached out and was about to go to the middle-aged man to take a noodles in his hand, the middle-aged man suddenly retracted his hand and shook his head silently.
“Do you know what your problem is?”
All around, those heavily armed villagers have surrounded them all.
The middle-aged man put two bowls of noodles in front of him and said slowly——
“Unfortunately, this is not the territory of the hunter Empire, but the blue bay empire. How dare you two say that you were robbed by soldiers of the blue bay Empire? Oh, is there anything so funny in this world? ”
At that moment, Ariel’s spirit tightened immediately!
Tension is not because their lies are exposed, but because of the sweet wine and cheese next to them!
Sure enough, after hearing that it was not in the enemy’s territory, the princess of the blue bay empire was immediately excited and was about to stand up from the wooden pier. It was obvious that she wanted to announce her Princess’s identity immediately!
In order to prevent her from saying something wrong, Ariel stood up at the same time when she stood up and stretched out her hand to pull her into her arms! Then she took out a stone from her pocket that she had picked up by the ditch and aimed it directly at the middle-aged man in front of her.
“Oh, flustered?”
The middle-aged man didn’t want to dodge when he looked at the stone pointing at himself. Similarly, the farmers around raised their weapons and all aimed at Ariel and sweet wine cheese.
“Don’t be afraid, don’t be afraid! Dear, I love you. We live and die together… We will never be separated! Trust me… I will protect you from here! Don’t be afraid… Don’t make a noise… ”
Ariel pressed the sweet wine cheese tightly around her neck to prevent her from talking. Although with the power of sweet wine and cheese, she can easily push away Ariel’s bondage, the scene she is facing now also frightens the princess who has never seen anything in the world and dare not speak for a time.
The middle-aged man glanced at Ariel and saw that he was flustered and his hand holding the stone was not very stable. It was obviously an untrained hand. Such an arm, let alone holding a stone, even holding a knife, is a complete weakness.
“Do you still want to continue acting on my side? Hehe, the performance is good. You can continue. I have plenty of time to watch your performance. ”
At this time, a gunman with a long gun nearby approached slightly. Ariel immediately pointed the sharp side of the stone in her hand at the long gunman, her face became more sad and cold, and shouted——
“I didn’t offend you! If you want money… If you want money! I can give you money! Give you a lot of money! As long as you let our husband and wife live! I… I can write to my family! You can take my letter and get the money! As long as you are willing to let our husband and wife go! ”
“Hello, isn’t it? And this is your wife, sweet wine, isn’t it? ”
The middle-aged man ignored Ariel’s appeal at all, but continued——
“Your little brother is pretty, but his wife is ugly.”
Ariel quickly pointed the stone in her hand at the middle-aged man. Her lips moved and seemed to want to say something, but she didn’t dare to say anything because of her inner timidity.
The middle-aged man began to eat noodles and said while eating——
“From the beginning, you wouldn’t say who robbed you. After my fellow villagers said that you might have been hijacked by soldiers of the blue bay Empire, you nodded your head immediately. Hehe, really thought I didn’t know you were getting information? Do you really think what people on my side say is all true without intention? ”
Ariel clenched her teeth and her hand holding the stone was still shaking gently: “we… Really don’t know! Believe it or not! Since it’s not the army of the blue bay Empire, it’s the army of the hunter Empire?! We were robbed anyway! What do you want from me? Will you show me where I was robbed? ”
The middle-aged man took another mouthful of noodles and ate with relish. However, he seemed to dislike that the bowl of noodles had no taste, so he turned and entered the house over there. After a while, he took out a handful of pepper from inside, crushed it with his fingers, sprinkled it directly on a bowl of noodles, stirred it and ate it——
“The second flaw is you… Hum, Mr. arrow, you are really calm. You don’t look like an exhausted man who has just been robbed and walked in the mountains for several days. What I ask you, you will respond to what, and organized, everything is very clear. Will a person who panicked like you speak clearly about what happened to him? Do you think we are a little too stupid? ”
Hearing this, Ariel breathed out silently, and the tension on her face faded slightly. She gently patted the shoulder of sweet wine cheese, motioned her not to move or talk, then loosened her shoulder and said, “I don’t know when the original calmness will become a disadvantage?”
The middle-aged man was eating noodles when he suddenly heard Ariel speak in that calm voice again. Obviously, he had doubts in his heart, and then looked up.
I saw the young arrow surrounded by all the villagers. Although his face was still a little frightened, he still tried to maintain a calm and relaxed all over.
“Oh? Interesting. What do you say? ” The middle-aged man responded.
Ariel covered her chest and said slowly, “I just said, I’m a businessman. Maybe you villagers can’t understand, but I know exactly what I represent as a businessman. For businessmen, as long as there is a mistake in a goods, they may lose their money. As long as there is a little detail, they may be cheated of money and goods. Even like this, all the goods were almost lost, and my wife and I were in great trouble. Sir, please understand that businessmen are not like farmers who can only occupy one place. If necessary, I need to walk the whole golden continent. If things are not calm enough, how can I go into the business? ”
Obviously, Ariel’s self-confidence and professional topics made the middle-aged man unable to respond for a time.
Although Ariel admits that the middle-aged man is very vigilant, no matter how vigilant he is, he can’t figure out a field he doesn’t understand or understand at all. Once you bring the topic to the special needs of a businessman, no matter how alert you are, you can’t tell whether you are lying or telling the truth at once.
People can’t understand what they don’t understand. If they don’t understand, some people will begin to avoid this topic. For example, no longer tangle in this place, but turn to others.
However, some people still hope to understand with their little knowledge, so they will put forward some topics that they may not know the answer.
Once the topic shifts to this aspect, it will become much easier to get back the initiative.
For example
“You said you were a businessman? How is this possible? ”
The middle-aged man shook his head, obviously trying to take the initiative on this topic——
“Now the blue bay Empire and the hunter empire are at war. The relationship between the two sides is unbearable! Are you still a businessman at the border at this time? Don’t suspicious people like you catch one at a time, no matter which army they are? ”
Finally, the topic entered Ariel’s familiar field!
Although there was no expression on her face, Ariel’s heart shouted long live for this small phased victory!
From now on, this topic is no longer the questions and doubts of the superior side and the inferior side, but the inferior side can completely reverse the self righteous empirical logic of the superior side with its own knowledge.
As long as she can directly twist each other’s logic, even if she is pointed by so many people with weapons, Ariel can ensure that she is safe!
“Sir, that’s wrong. Originally, I shouldn’t have said these words, because if they were known by the official, I would certainly suffer. But now, in order to save my life and my wife’s, please allow me to explain briefly. ”
After a short pause, Ariel said immediately——
“In fact, although the situation on both sides is tense, the more this time, the more it is for a small businessman like me to make money.”
“Why? Because once the relationship between Sagittarius and blue bay becomes tense, all kinds of official trade will be banned. However, once the official trade on the surface is banned, the private trade will naturally rise. And because of the risk of being caught, we can often sell our goods at a high price! Make a lot of money from it! ”
“For example, it usually takes a gold coin for the hunter to sell a weapon to blue bay, and it also takes a gold coin for the blue bay to sell a cart of fish to the hunter. At this time, the price can often be more than three or four times, and some special goods can even be sold at more than ten times the price! Sir, you said, “with such a high profit, why don’t I make it?”
The middle-aged man obviously began to notice the problem. He looked at his villagers. It was obvious that the villagers were also interested in the way of making money. Although the weapon in his hand was still pointing at him, it was not so tight.
At present, the middle-aged man waved his hand and seemed unwilling to admit it, but he didn’t want to change the topic so much. He buried the seeds of the concept of “making money” in the hearts of the villagers and said, “just blow it! I see how long you can blow. ”
He put down his spoon and fork, stopped eating noodles, raised his sleeve, wiped his mouth and said, “can the price increase? I see. But aren’t you dying? Such blatant reselling of goods, the border soldiers on both sides catch you and want to kill you even more. Can you still run around in this case? Lying to ghosts! ”
In Ariel’s heart, now she almost wants to jump up and dance!
On the surface, she breathed out a little and said slowly——
“It’s certainly impossible under normal circumstances. That’s why businessmen like us need to take care of border officers on both sides.”
The middle-aged man was stunned: “dot?”
Ariel nodded, looked very uncomfortable, took out her pocket and said, “after the state does not allow trading, of course, we can only make money through this private transaction. However, we can hide from the countries on both sides, but we can’t hide from the border troops, can we? Therefore, we usually turn over almost half of the sales to the military soldiers on both sides as management expenses, so that they can let us communicate safely and turn a blind eye. ”
Obviously, this approach has gone beyond the feelings of a middle-aged man. He stared and said, “is this OK?!”
Ariel nodded very seriously and said, “of course, although the soldiers at the border say they are trying to protect their country, wouldn’t it be better if they didn’t have to fight and bleed to death? And as long as you let us go and don’t do anything, you can get much more income than the military pay. They are happy to see us as a businessman! Seriously, I have a good relationship with some soldiers on both sides. Sometimes if we don’t take their line for a few months, they will be very nervous. They will boo us when they see us! Alas… Just this time… ”
Ariel paused for a moment, shook her head slightly, and said, “this time, I don’t know what happened… We originally wanted to take the scheduled route. As early as on the road, I thought there was a problem with the route. There were no soldiers who should have been stationed, and all the soldiers changed their faces. Alas… If I didn’t want to catch up with this wave of business as soon as possible and make a good profit, I should stop and stop acting at that time! In this case… Maybe I won’t be reduced to this now… ”
Ariel’s stories are almost lies.
But the most effective part of lies lies lies in that they lie in their best areas, and also fit the voice of ordinary people.
The villagers have agreed in their eyes.
After all, who doesn’t like small money? When the young businessman who calls himself arrow speaks out his own set of money making logic, and this set of money making logic can really justify itself in terms of model, its credibility will naturally be frightening.
In addition, with Ariel’s proper calm and helplessness before, as well as the slightest fear vaguely revealed, especially seeing the appearance of his ugly wife protecting himself, as long as he is a normal person, he will have more or less compassion in his heart, so as to believe what he said.
“You said you were a businessman? Well, I’ll believe what you said for the time being. ”
The middle-aged man reached out and knocked on the table in front of him——
“What kind of business do you do? What did you buy? Say it. ”
Ariel’s face suddenly became nervous. He subconsciously retracted his hand holding the stone and covered his pocket.
Obviously, this action had appeared once before, so the middle-aged man immediately became alert. He gave a sneer and said, “what’s the matter? I found a flaw? I remember very clearly. You just said that all your things were ‘almost’ robbed. This is almost worth pondering ~ ~ ”
Ariel tilted her head and thought, then said with a very firm attitude, “if… If you want to know, of course I should take it out. This is my last stock… I don’t ask you, sir, to pay directly according to the price, but at least leave some for my wife’s treatment and give some according to the market price, so that I can go back safely. ”
The middle-aged man stared: “don’t talk nonsense! Take it out! ”
Hearing this cry, Ariel trembled all over. Reluctantly, Ariel took a small bag out of her pocket and put it on the stone table.
