Wolf King

The so-called wool wool can't catch a spot. When Xiao Yun once again brought the vermicelli team into the underground world, he didn't do anything on the way, honestly quickly rushed to the underground city to deliver the vermicelli to some, and then— -When I came back, I was "lost" in another direction.

Not only the grey dwarves and goblins, but the battle trees that fell within the sight of the Snow Wolf tribe were all rooted away...Unfortunately, like the first plant, there is no wisdom to run and hide, and all you find is instinct. The plant that hits the ground with a hammer is no different from ordinary piranhas and killer vines.

At the same time, the grassroots patriarch in Valentine also completed a major transaction with the new town owner of Valentine.

In the lower city, the Myers hotel.

Many customers lined up in front of the store, holding a few or a dozen copper coins, either buy some pork or some cheaper rabbit meat, both of which can't afford to go back to the broth at least. Let the family taste the meat.

Two snow werewolves, three MSG factory employees who took the initiative to help, and two adventurers stood busy in the store. Just after the peak period, several people were sweating.

On the side of the store near the wall, the grassroot patriarch and Isaac stood in the corner, talking head to head.

"Six hundred thousand catties of rabbit meat, one hundred thousand catties of pork, this is the largest amount that Pop City Lord can digest." The grassroot patriarch spread out the books and motioned to Isaac to watch, "To pay this money, I found that the city master had Two rings are missing. We can only handle the remaining amount."

Yes... Lord Valentin was the nephew of Grand Duke Pope who had dealt with the Philip victim... The nobles shielded themselves and never had to pay attention to eating.

Isaac frowned: "It's too... how can Pop City Lord not pay more than two thousand gold coins?"

"I also felt very strange before. We calculated the accounts of Valentine by referring to the flow of water in and out of the King St. Bridge. With the monopolistic nature of the Port of Valentine in the Kingdom of Cronin, the city’s annual inflow and outflow of capital should be It’s only counted in hundreds of thousands of gold coins.” The grassroots clan said, “But from our observations in the Upper Town during this time, at least this year, Valentine really has no money-no one saw a housemaid holding banquets on the street. No new clothes are seen."

Isaac looked: "So..."

"Yes." The grassroot patriarch nodded. "Valentin has been drained."

The fire department's high-level study courses not only count their own accounts, but also learn to count other people's accounts, and the grassroot patriarch has always been a good student.

"...Combined with the information given by Lola Philip and the Adventurer Association, Ayun believes that Valentine will inevitably fall into financial difficulty step by step in the next few years. With the corrupt and greedy bureaucracy of the Cronin nobility, if the noble council would be ten A gold coin was put into the battlefield in the South, so Valentine had to be sucked to take at least one hundred gold coins." The grassroot patriarch seriously, "The houses in the upper city are about 20% empty, and some nobles have planned to temporarily quit Valentine's business. Pull away and avoid this chaotic vortex."

Tight in the front and tight in the rear, this routine is not just a "national army" to play ~

Isaac wiped his sweat silently...

Before he led the team to Valentin, the teacher told him to take advantage of the chaos of Valentin to take a firm foothold in the largest port city of the Cronin Kingdom; as a noble child, he naturally envisioned that the Valentin would What happened was that I didn't expect that the situation facing Valentine was more severe than he thought.

What Isaac didn’t know was that when Philip the Lord heard the news from Sean, he immediately made the decision to give up the position of the lord-for the greed of the power in the noble class, the more high-ranking people will be less concerned Fortunately.

"The Pope City Lord is the nephew of Grand Duke Pope. Even in this status, I still can't keep this city!" Isaac couldn't help but sigh. His team had also spent several years in Valentine to discuss the life of this deceased. Earl Philip created the city of freedom with his own hands, he is emotional.

Suddenly, Isaac thought of something, and quickly said: "Wait, is Pope City Lord planning to use these supplies to save himself?"

"Yeah." The grassroot patriarch laughed. "Pop Town Lord asked us not to transport the goods into the city, and the handover venue was also placed at the terminal of the Adventurer Association Transportation Department. This is not a deal between the town owner and us, but the Viscount Pop Personal transactions with us."

In other words, Pope Viscount was so anxious that he had to skip the Valentin's ruling team and give himself some money to keep his life at bay.

Isaac's eyelids jumped and murmured: "This is a signal... a signal that the situation in the city is out of control. In this way, we can't develop in the city, we have to move our base outside the city."

The grassroots chief is not the same as Isaac. She does her best to provide support for Isaac, but will not interfere with Isaac’s decision. He nodded and said: "You can think about it, we will be in a few days. After you board the boat and leave, the materials that remain in the Transportation Department of the Adventurer Association are left to you to handle."

Over the past few days, stores in Xiacheng District have sold hundreds of thousands of kilograms of meat in a scattered manner. Pop City owners do not care about the market in Xiacheng District and let the Ministry of Fire play.

The snow wolves cannot stay in Valentine forever, and the rest of the goods in the warehouse of the Ministry of Transport will naturally be handed over to the Isaac agent who came to Valentin to "open the ground"; the surplus generated is Isaac The "start-up funds" to do big things.

Allowing those who follow you to rely on the ability to catch the benefits and develop upwards is the basic quality of an excellent leader... It is unrealistic to expect a horse to run without adding night grass to the horse~!

Deliberately suppressing one's own people, restricting the development of one's own people with the tone of the high-level people who need to hone and polish, then it is called sick... This kind of boss is unable to retain talent! (Some male leaders are particularly keen to do so)

Isaac nodded with a smile and looked at the crowd outside the store to buy. The heart of the heart was spontaneously born-even if he was only the head of the district adventurer team, now he got the support of the teacher and the Ministry of Fire. Now, he Do not believe that you will have no achievements!

The grassroot patriarch still has a lot of things to do, and he leaves with Isaac after explaining clearly. Isaac stayed in the hotel store of the Myers house for a moment, talked with the visiting cavalier brothers, and then went to other stores.

That night, Isaac took Yali and the knightly brothers, accompanied the grassroot patriarch to the new city's main palace in the upper city, and met Pope Pope.

Viscount Pope was in his prime, with thick hair and sharp eyes, but now there was a very obvious blackness-it can be seen that the current Lord Valentin is really not good.

"Mr. Robbins hopes to buy a piece of land outside the city?" Upon hearing the grassroot patriarch's announcement, Pope Pope looked at Isaac strangely without concealing his surprise.

It is no exaggeration to say that the current Valentine is a piece of meat on a dinner plate surrounded by countless shadows with knives and forks. Viscount Pope has been struggling for less than two years, and he secretly handles the asset flight The little aristocrats don't know how many people, but at this time they are willing to smash money in. Are these people burning money or what?

Isaac cautiously: "Dear Viscount Pope, I do not intend to run a farm or farm in Valentine, nor do I intend to become the owner of a village. I hope that you will allow me to buy ten miles east of the port Outside, that useless rocky beach, the thin soil nearby cannot grow crops, and there are no villages or farms of noble families around it."

The threshold for becoming a noble in the country is not high-buy the Lord’s title or knight’s title with the cheapest price from the lord (in theory, citizens who contribute to the territory can get the lord’s title, and it’s natural to spend money on the lord), buy it A piece of land and the purchase of more than a dozen serfs (or the land of a village) can become the lowest rural nobles in the noble class.

This kind of grass-roots aristocracy is naturally a lord in the eyes of civilians, but it is not even considered in the aristocratic circle... It is also necessary to pay heavy taxes, and if you do not run a third or fifth generation, you will not be able to get any other noble family of the same class Admit.

Viscount Pope is even stranger: "Mr. Robbins refers to the rocky beach east of the port?"

If it wasn't for the grassroot patriarch to enter the door, Isaac's identity would not be enough to make Viscount Popper shout a sir...

"Yes, Lord Viscount." Isaac nodded slightly, respectfully, "My family is well-known in the Osmond Kingdom, but since I left the house, I have no longer depended on family shelter. I hope to be you The family knight, established my own glory in Valentine, and more yours."

This request was made by Isaac after careful consideration. The title of the Lord and the title of knight are the most basic nobles, but the title of the Lord is linked to the territory, and the knight of the lord is only responsible for the lord.

Viscount Pope’s slightly tense face relaxes a little bit. Obviously, Isaac’s flattering is very in line with his wishes. The so-called family knight means that Isaac has to bring dry food when Pope Pope needs it. 1. Bring troops to be used by Viscount Pop, not the shoe-shine cloth like the Lord's, whoever has a loud voice.

If Isaac was a poor ghost, Pope Viscount would not have much interest. He now has no spare money to slowly raise a usable family knight. Even if he wants to cultivate, there is no need to train Isaac to trust halfway. Wouldn't it be more reliable to draw one out of your own entrainment?

But Isaac was obviously not a poor ghost who had to rely on Pope Viscount for blood transfusions-this guy was backed by the Fire Department, who could come up with a large amount of supplies for trading!

Not to mention that Isaac very wisely stated that he would not be influenced by the Robbins family-his hometown in Osmond, although he is also a member of the Northern Federation, is separated from Cronin by two countries!

Looking at Isaac’s very pleasing Pope Pope’s face, but after treating the man as a younger brother with his own dry food, Viscount Pope was dissatisfied with his choice: “If so, why should you choose anything There are some people who are selling farms in the turbulent beaches of Shangcheng District, maybe you can have a better choice."

Isaac's attitude is more respectful: "My Excellency, I admire your character, personal charm and talent, and I yearn to be your follower. Please believe that even the rocky beach land that can't grow anything, I It certainly will not disappoint you for my expectations and diligently to operate it. When you need it, I will come all out and lead the horse for you."

Farming can make a fortune on the grassland, but not in Cronin.

Needless to say, heavy taxes and taxes, and more importantly... fertile land is registered in the land management book of Valentine! The former city owner Philip was a man who developed Valentin wholeheartedly and without selfishness. There was no such thing as Yintian under his men.

If Isaac’s blessed Viscount Pope knight’s title was tied to those registered fertile fields, wouldn’t Isaac become a bird who actively entered the cage!

Viscount Pope’s focus is different from Isaac, although he can think of this, but in his view, Isaac is more like a ready-made "self-five five" that does not ask for anything and only serves him... …This seems rather suspicious: how can there be such a good thing in the world?

Faced with the suspicious look of Pope Viscount, Isaac lowered his head a little, saying humbly: "I don't hide from you, in fact, I hope to get unnoticed land. In this way, the Ministry of Fire's merchandise You can trade in a more free venue, managed by me, and belong to you-the Lord Viscount."

Viscount Pope was surprised, and suddenly... It turned out that this knight supported by the Ministry of Fire wanted to be an agent of grassland products in Valentine?

Thinking about the friction between the largest local snake in the local area, the Lamia Chamber of Commerce, and the workers hired by the Ministry of Fire last year, Viscount Pope instantly saw through the knight’s intention to rely on himself-without his support as a city host, Isaac · What capital does Robbins, a foreign knight, fight against the Lamia Chamber of Commerce?

He kept saying that he wanted to be the "heart" of his family's knights, which somewhat dissatisfied with Pope Viscount, but thought that this was a pick-up who didn't need his own help and could allow himself to benefit from it. As a qualified politician, the Viscount Pope was also relieved... When "airborne" became the owner of Valentin, it was when he needed manpower. Even if the "self" component is not pure, but compared to the Inland Sea, It is also an alien grassland tribe, and the influence he can exert on Isaac Robbins is naturally greater.

Viscount Pope stood up, straightened his shirt, and extended his right hand, with his back facing up, and said, "I accept your dedication, Robbins Knight."

Isaac quickly got up, knelt on one knee, and kissed the back of Viscount Pope's hand: "Allegiance to you, my master."

"Get up, my knight." Viscount Pope smiled. "Since you are loyal to me, I can't fail to express it. To the east of the port, all areas that do not intersect with other people's land are granted to you. May you not Negative knight glory."

"Thank you for your generosity and respect, Your Excellency Viscount." Isaac moved with a look on his face, "I will manage the land that belongs to you for you and devote my life to you."

The grassroot patriarch who watched them quietly looked pure.

Knight Brothers & Yali: "..."

Yali, who was born in the bottom of the poor family, was a bit sullen. He clearly remembered that their intention was to buy a piece of land to operate the base. Why did Isaac suddenly recognize the master and servant with the city owner? Don't spend money on land? !

The Cavaliers admired...

A serious knight does not mean mastering martial arts or riding a war. It is no different from other adventurers if it is not officially blocked.

However, it is too difficult to be a knight of the kingdom, and it is basically not wide enough to be banned; if it is baptized by the Holy See, the price is too high and it will lose its freedom; the noble family knights are also restricted by one horse, and the threshold is still high, either rich or strong Fame; so most of the knights are casually mixed, either as adventurers or mercenaries, put the knight in his pocket of honor, and he can’t get it at all.

Isaac was so powerful, he moved his mouth, didn’t pay a dime, started with the land, and officially started with the title, so he didn’t need to be the servant of others to keep the horses and horses. (Many kings and knights granted by the nobles need to give the king , The nobleman raises horses, and will fight for the qualifications of raising horses.

Hmm... The power structure of this world is so deformed, the lord who is the master of a country and a city can seal the land out according to his mood, and it is better than the law-and in order to maintain the sacredness of the aristocracy, even if it is Political enemies will also pinch their noses to recognize this sort of seal.

Of course, the banned knight cannot take the land to another country, but must fight for the nobility to the end, coexist with the noble noble... This is also the rule of the game of power in this world.

In this regard, Isaac has no worries, as long as he keeps the life of Pope Pope, he can use the land happily before the death of Pope Pope-Pope Pope is also the nephew of Grand Duke Cronin, Even if the political battle fails, the enemy will desperately save his life.

The reason is similar to the set of rules for "do not punish scholars" when the literati in the Song and Ming dynasties fought... How can the scholar servants who rule the world with the emperor lose their lives in the failure of the political battle! Do you want to maintain the superiority and superiority of the bureaucrats?

Like Marcus, the stupidity that killed his dad who still had the title of Earl, the whole human race could not find a few.

"Are you going back? Don't continue to do business?!"

Hearing this news, Mr. Myers seemed to have heard the most terrible bad news, and he almost stood unsteadily.

Snow Wolf clan Nanfeng swiftly sorted things and said frankly: "Yeah, it's been almost a month since we came out, we are going home."

Mr. Myers, who has been in a hotel for more than ten days and has been operating a hotel for many years, has seen people who are ghosts and shrewdly see through the honest nature of the snow wolf's ferocious appearance (?). Not only will he actively find the snow wolf to talk, When the business is busy, I will call on my wife to help you get started.

After selling today's evening peak, the Myers and his wife helped to pack things enthusiastically. When Nanfeng said this, they were so sad that they were mournful... Every day, the rent of a silver coin, and the snow werewolf would still sell the remaining bones. The soup was given to them and they ate a couple of pounds in just ten days. This kind of good thing will end in just ten days. Why is life so difficult!

Nanfeng was relieved to see them so uncomfortable and said, "I will be reluctant to let you go, but it doesn't matter, we might come next winter. Even if we don't come, you can go play on the grassland. I'm doing things at Elven Harbor , If you come, I’ll make it for you."

Myers cried as if smiling, the ticket was expensive! Even if it is to squeeze the warehouse, one trip will cost dozens of silver coins, where can he give up!

Big peasants like the prairie people are willing to charter a boat back and forth every year to send workers home for the winter, but there is nowhere to go!

Tolerating grief, Myers tried to make a smile: "It's okay, it's okay, we will miss you... uh, I don't know... I don't know if you need workers on the grassland? My son is 21 years old this year. , A hardworking and hard-working guy..."

Nanfeng scratched his scalp with embarrassment, and many of these guests talked about whether to go to the MSG factory or the woolen factory in these days, but he just wanted the salted fish for Ashu in the elven port, don't know these!

The female adventurer who brushed the pot next to her heard this and said, "This one has to ask the grassroot patriarch. Nanfeng doesn't know this."

"Grassroot Patriarch...is that the old man?" Mr. Myers' eyes lit up and he was nervous. "When will you go, can we still see the grassroot patriarch?"

"We have to sell it for a few more days. If there is a chance, the grassroot patriarch also came here today." Nanfeng said.

Mr. Myers breathed a sigh of relief, and immediately thought about how the coyote of the Snow Wolf tribe came up to speak up...

"Is it all packed up? It's time to go back to the port."

The elder brother Edward of the Cavaliers came to see the situation. As soon as he entered the door, Nanfeng rushed to him: "Edward, do you know if there are workers at the MSG factory? Miles said his son is very diligent."

Mr. Myers stopped breathing and looked nervously at the old knight in armor.

"No, there is no surplus of raw materials for fishing in the sea. Now the staff of the MSG factory is enough." Edward said.

The cultivation of sea intestines is not on the right track, there is not enough sea intestine powder, and it is difficult to guarantee the product quality control of MSG factory by fermented sodium glutamate alone.

Mr. Myers lost his soul, and his wife glared angrily... I didn’t let my son sign up, but it was Myers’ fault!

Edward smiled and looked at the Myers couple: "If your son doesn't have a job, he can't go to the MSG factory and he can come to us."

"Master Knight, do you still have work there?" Mr. Miles came to life immediately, leaning forward to Edward and nodding.

Valentin’s port cannot digest the labor force of Xiacheng District. This is the reason why the security problems of Valentin’s four areas of Xiacheng District have not been completely eradicated. The road is just to eliminate the possibility of large-scale armed fighting on the street, and public security cases such as theft and abduction still occur from time to time.

Even if it is a butcher shop with a snow wolf tribe, there are always people who try to blackmail at the two ends of the day... Of course, those scoundrels who want to take advantage of the benefits have dragged the Isaac members into the alley to "clean up" It's gone-the adventurers' shots are much heavier than the Snow Werewolf's own shots. These scoundrels are not like the rough-skinned adventurers of Elven Harbor who can withstand the south wind and throw them casually.

Isaac swore "loyalty" to the lord of the city. He took a large part of the land in vain and had to give a name to Viscount Pope.

With the endorsement of the teacher and the support of the Ministry of Fire, Isaac came up with the solution: he will do his best to solve the security problems in his downtown area and his lord, Viscount, and arrange the young and middle-aged people who are most likely to make trouble. ...
