Master Overlord - Chapter 388
Avery county will inevitably cause a great shock in the Kingdom, which is likely to turn the undercurrent surging Kingdom situation into a stormy chaos.
Although Arthur was opposed, he knew he didn’t have the strength. In a short time, it was good for Shanghe collar – the development and construction of the territory needed money and time, and chaos brought opportunities.
Therefore, after some discussion, he directly asked the bachelor to draft an objection statement, which immediately ended the topic and planned to wait for the surging situation in the kingdom.
For the current Shanghe collar, army expansion is the first important thing.
The expansion of the barracks has been completed. The soldiers of the first army led by Cumbria also returned to the territory yesterday, along with their bachelor’s degree and students.
Now, the transformation of Cumbria collar has been basically completed, and the wild people go north, which also brings a relatively stable development opportunity for milt. As long as it operates according to the framework currently built, milt can rely on himself.
Even if he really encounters any difficult situation, he can always ask Arthur for advice – now campesiburg and Lingfeng Castle communicate frequently, just like men and women in love.
“By the way, one more thing.” Arthur suddenly asked at the end of the discussion when Mr. Boye packed up his stationery and was ready to leave.
“Have you heard from the green and Davidson families? I always think they suddenly buy so many weapons, not just to prevent wild people.”
About half a month ago, green and the Davidson family suddenly sent people to Shanghe town to find Gustav and asked for 200 sets of lock armor, upper body plate armor, helmets and swords, plus 10000 spears. Said to prevent the invasion of wild people.
Because Arthur was forbidden to export iron to the green and Davidson families, Gustav opened his mouth and quoted the price of 20000 gold coins.
Gustav’s original intention was to make things difficult for the other party and make the green and Davidson family return in vain, but he didn’t expect that two days later, the other party directly agreed to his offer – 20000 gold coins, which is more than three times more expensive!
Arthur was not in the castle, but went to several villages in the west to inspect. Gustav felt something strange, so he didn’t immediately refuse each other, but reported it to him with a letter bird.
Arthur, who received the news, also felt strange. Didn’t he hurry to the door and be slaughtered for buying such a little thing with 20000 gold coins? It is reasonable that even he can receive the news from elif. As an important Minister of the king, marquis Davidson cannot be unaware of the real purpose of the wild people going north.
When things go wrong, there will be demons. Arthur asked Gustav to reply to the other party, saying that the production capacity of Shanghe collar was limited. If you want to get these weapons and equipment, you have to wait at least two months, and ask the other party to pay half of the deposit first.
Now, the gold coins have been received, but the goods have not started production, and the wild people have left the territory of the Davidson family.
The bachelor shook his head and said there was no news from the green and Davidson families.
“It’s strange. Do these two bastards want to fail again, or are they frightened by our relationship with the campes family?”
Arthur raised his hand and scratched his head. He thought it wouldn’t be so simple. With the lessons of the Barrett family, the other party should understand that more than two or three hundred knights and ten thousand serf soldiers can not pose a real threat to Shanghe collar.
Thorne stood aside and said rarely, “Sir, the other party may have some long-term plans. According to what you just said, the kingdom is likely to be in chaos. At this time, the nobles will want more means to protect themselves.”
“No, it must not be.” Arthur shook his head thoughtfully. “Twenty thousand gold coins to buy such a little thing is enough to see that they are very eager. It doesn’t seem like a long planned preparation. Something must happen. Um… It should have something to do with the wild people going north this time.”
It is absolutely beyond anyone’s expectation that wild people go north to the West.
After thinking about it, Arthur turned to Thorne and said, “send someone to ask Gustav if they need to cancel the order, and say that if they cancel now, half of the deposit can be refunded.”
It’s a little black to swallow half of the other party’s deposit directly, but if, as the other party said, the purchase of weapons is to resist the wild people, then when the danger has been relieved, the green and Davidson families will choose to cancel the order in order to reduce the loss.
……
A few days later, Fengxi castle.
Duke kewilt stared at the man in front of him with dignity.
The other party is wearing a dark green cloth robe. He is slightly fat, not tall, or even short. In addition to his smart eyes, the whole person is ordinary like a mature white gourd.
After looking carefully, the Duke asked, “are you Federico? Do you know why I caught you?”
The man stooped and bowed his back, facing the ground, and answered loudly and forcefully, “if you go back to the Duke, my name is Federico. If the Duke has any orders, even if you fight for your life, you will complete the task!”
“Mission?” the Duke smiled coldly and joked, “how do you know it’s a mission rather than punishment? I heard Sir Carver willier say you’ve done a lot of harm. Just you’re smart, never start in Emilia County, and you’re generous. You know how to make friends with gold coins.”
The man named Federico did not dare to look up. He heard that the Duke hated people paying too much attention to his sparse head.
“If I go back to the Duke, I did a lot of bad things, but those children and women were sold by their families, and I will never force anyone. Although it is against the law of the Kingdom, if I don’t buy them, they will die sooner or later.”
“Damn guy, so you’ve become a good man!” pace scolded discontentedly.
“No, sir. I know I’m a human trafficking garbage, and I’m definitely not a good man! But if the Duke wants to execute me, just give an order, and don’t bring me to the castle at all. Your eyes will be dirty.”
“Hum, you still know yourself. You know you’re rubbish!” pace said coldly. He has never looked down upon such a man who buys and sells children and women as slaves.
“Yes.” the man bowed down and said, “if I can have the opportunity to work for the Duke, it will be the highest honor of my life. Even if I lose this life, I promise to complete the task. Just ask the Duke to give me a chance to reform.”
The Duke of kewilt was very satisfied with the cleverness of Federico, a slave trader, and said, “is it true that Sir Carver willier said that you know the language of wild people and speak it well?”
After hearing the speech, Federico greeted the women of the viril family again – every year he used gold coins to honor each other!
Although his heart was on fire, he still answered honestly: “The Duke’s words are true. When I was young, I was not sensible. I once liked a female slave of the wild people. In order to communicate with her, I tried to learn the words of the wild people. The wild people are a group of idiots and fools who can’t learn our civilized language! At that time, I was so young that I was completely fascinated by the woman’s body, and then I…”
“That’s enough.” the Duke interrupted him. “I don’t care about your love history when you were young. Since you can speak the language of wild people, now I have a very important task for you. If you do well, I will consider making you a knight and even giving you a piece of land.”
Feudal nobles!
The Duke’s words made Federico’s blood rush to his head, and he quickly knelt down in excitement: “Duke, please believe me, whether it’s a knife mountain or a sea of fire, Federico will live up to your expectations!”
The Duke was extremely satisfied with the other party’s response and said solemnly, “if Sir keffer willier did not strongly recommend that you would be able to complete the important task, such an opportunity would not come to you.”
“Yes, yes!” Federico was excited and incoherent at the thought that he would be made a noble. “Lord Carver willier has always known people. Everyone in the city knows this. No one doesn’t say that, and I will live up to his expectations!”
