When Joel's eyes keenly caught the carriage coming ahead, he suddenly said, excitedly, " Yes!" Kunert was stunned and did not immediately understand what Joel meant.
Catte, the merchant in the carriage, greeted them warmly: " Hey, Joel, Kunlte, it's been a long time no see. I didn't expect to meet you here. "Joel responded with a smile:" Carter, long time no see, are you also here to do business this time?"
Catte replied with a smile, " Yes, winter is coming soon. I went to Silver White City to sell some skins and grain. Now I am preparing to return to Carlo City. After passing here, I came down to have a look. "Joel asked," Carter, my friend, it seems that you have gone a lot, too. Although it is difficult to say, but this time, can I trouble you to help a small favor?"
Karte replied, " Of course, Joel, you say, if I can help." Although he said so, but Carter's eyes were alert, after all, as businessmen, they are not stupid.
Joel explained his problem, roughly wanting to contract the city's business and asking Carter to detour directly to Carlo. Hearing this, her eyes became more alert: " What? Joel, what do you mean by that? This is just a small territory, but you don't want to monopolize it, right?"
Joel quickly explained, " No, how can I think that. That would break the rules, and I don't have any goods for so long. There is some problem with the baron of this place, which is not waiting for the result."
Joel and Carter were both merchants who walked in these marginal cities, and they understood what Joel meant. Karte said: " This is no problem, my friend, anyway, this place I am just on the way, go to go is indifferent."
Kte's concern is that this year's wheat harvest is bad and business is not good, and he is worried about whether it will be better next year. Joel replied with a smile, " Carter, did you forget, what is my business? Rest assured, next year's wheat will come to me to take, a jin of wheat I give you a copper coin."
Carte suddenly smiled, he said: " Good good, friend, thank you very much, in this case, it is not early, I should go to Carlo City." Joel and Kunt watched Kte's carriage leave, they also understood Joel's plan.
They had been observed in this territory before, and there were few crops in the territory, indicating that the territory, like other territories, was a place of land scarcity. As long as there is no businessman to do business, let alone winter, just can survive five days is a problem.
Most of the businessmen registered in the guild know each other, and generally, they are convenient. Even if there is a vampire like Carter, then pay some price. And this price does not matter, because when the time comes, can be taken back from the Lord Lord!
"Joel, you say, how much should we pay for a kilo of wheat? "Joel smiled," I think ten copper coins are very suitable. What do you think?" When he heard this price, he laughed, because this price was more than three times the market price.
But they are not worried about not selling it, because they monopolize the food, so the price is up to them. They were even worried that the price was so high that the baron would go to other territory to buy it.
Joel will even give a silver coin a jin of wheat, anyway do not buy, you wait to starve to death! This is a one-time sale, and then they will not come here again. After all, they can't block people here every day. And that would provoke the baron.
They don't want that. They just want to make money. As long as this time is done, then this trip, they can not only change the loss, and even make a lot!
"Ha ha, appropriate, I also think it is very suitable!" The two men decided happily. They are already starting to think about where to go when they get the money. Will anyone starve to death because the price is too expensive to buy wheat? What does that have to do with them? If you can't afford it, don't buy it, but some people buy it.
...
Inside the house, ready to go to bed after the lights. But he found Roy lying around on the couch." Roy, I am going to sleep."
"Oh, master, you can sleep."
Some speechless: " No, Roy, I remember, I have a room for you?"
Roy said, " Well, master, can I sleep here tonight?"
Roy's face was reddish, and his tail was swinging in anticipation. She has just heard what Livel said today, and she knows what's going on now. Now her most important task is to protect her master safe. She went back to sleep, but she was worried.
Knowing what Roy means, he doesn't feel necessary, but if not. And, it's Roy's heart. Finally, he scratched his head. " Ok,
My Lord, how do you think of this dress?
A woman handed over a dress to her.
It was directed by the Lord himself and commissioned by them.
Take over the clothes and check them carefully.
"Well, good done, but the cuffs need to be adjusted here, so. . . . . . "
The woman took over the clothes.
"Well, my Lord, I know."
Nod in satisfaction: " Well, then yes. I will buy all the clothes you make at the price of two copper coins per piece."
The woman quickly shook her head in some surprise.
"No, no, my Lord, I cannot take you any more money. My father, husband and son get a lot of food from you every day, so making these clothes is what we don't need to pay."
Explained: " That's two different things. They get food by their own labor, while you get money for your clothes by your own labor. That's your reward, so stop talking."
The woman was so moved that she knew the kindness of the Lord to them.
If you change to other lords, let alone give money, I'm afraid even difficult to see.
And the Lord Lord is not only good to them, but also so close to the people, without a little shelf, as if just an ordinary person.
It was lucky for all of them to have such a Lord.
"Well, thank you, Lord Lord!"
When the woman left, she nodded slightly.
It seems that the new clothes of the residents will soon be ready, and perhaps finished tonight.
Even if it is slower, it won't surpass tomorrow.
Now that the potatoes have been successfully grown, as long as the first batch matures, they don't have to worry about food.
After the land problem is solved, the people planting the land can also be transferred out to deal with the problem of the territorial fence.
Let the people to repair the fence, leaving only a gap, guarded every day.
With the fence, it is much harder for outsiders to get in and out.
It can be said that everything in the territory is gradually getting back on the right track.
But there is much to do.
While pondering this, Liell reported: " My Lord, the two merchants have come back, and they want to go to town."
The corners of the mouth slightly warped, the eyes revealed a trace of expectation.
"softly chant? Have they ever figured it out? What price did a kilo of wheat open this time?"
Level hesitated and replied, " Ten copper coins."
Sigh a breath, some helpless.
He anticipated that this would happen.
"A kilo of wheat, 10 copper coins? Do you still need to report on this matter to me? Just do it by yourself."
"yes!"
Lewell left immediately.
Turning to Roy, Roy dressed in a maid costume.
"Roy, this is for you."
"Master, I will certainly finish the task!"
When Roy left, he sighed helplessly.
It is true that businessmen have no humanity and only value interests, which has some truth.
This is the so-called "heart is insufficient snake swallow elephant".
...
At this point, outside the territory fence.
"What do you say?"
Joel couldn't believe it.
The two soldiers guarding the fence answered with disgust.
"Didn't I make it out to be clear enough? Your Lord will not let you in."
A jin of wheat, 10 copper coins?
Why don't you go there and grab it?
Is is a deserve to enter the Lord?
Joel's face was confused.
It's a completely different from what he thought.
"It is coming winter. If you will starve to death."
The soldier answered impatiently.
"It's none of your business if we starve ourselves? A jin of wheat 10 copper coins? Are you in such a hurry to make money to buy a coffin for your mother? I finally say again, the Lord forbid you to come in! roll! Roll slow, I kill you!"
"Is it! Joel, what's going on from here! It's not what you said!"
Kunt, driven out of Romanier, looked angry.
Joel was gloomy. " How do I know what's going on! And, what happened to that fence?!"
They are just outside the city of Romanil.
But it's not getting too close.
If too close, they could see Romanille.
But vice versa, the people of Romanier can see them.
This situation needs to be avoided.
After all, they are only businessmen, and what they do is not glorious.
So I dare not do it in front of others.
Paying a high price or not doing business is barely justified.
But if you do someone else's business in someone else's face.
Then their two businessmen would really be killed.
"Well, how could it happen! It has been several days, even if they have not finished their food.
Also should be about the same bar!? I have no crops by myself.
There were no livestock, and no foreign merchants to supply them.
The whole territory of more than 200 people need to eat, how can not be short of food.
They still dare not let us in!?"
Court was also in a rage.
"What should you do now?"
Joel was also speechless.
How do I know that?!
This situation is completely different from what he had thought before!
But they also understood one thing.
Although I do not know where their food came from, but it seems that there is really no shortage of it.
This is not only the baron, but also the attitude of the soldiers.
There is no lack of food, then they will stay again, it is probably also a waste of time.
There will be no result.
This trip, is doomed to be no harvest.
Moreover, these days, they also agreed to the agreement of several businessmen.
These agreements are certain to be fulfilled, otherwise they would be businessmen.
No good faith, later in the circle is not able to go down.
Add in the time lost these days and the best time to sell wheat.
It can be said that their trip is a loss to grandma's home!
"Is it! It is the first time I have been treated like this in this small territory!
be not allowed! Now, when I think of the baron's face, I am very angry.
I can't swallow it! I must pay for the baron!"
Courte was the first: " Joel, I have lost so much anyway.
I don't care a little more. I want to take out two gold coins to hire a killer.
What do you say?"
Joel didn't stop Kunt this time like he did last time.
Because the last time he had a way, but this time, he really was helpless.
Besides, he is full of fire here.
The baron's attitude is not aside.
He remembered what he had promised to the other merchants.
That is not a small amount.
"Ok! I'll give two gold coins like you, go!"
The two men had decided on it at once.
He immediately turned around, and prepared to enter the carriage.
But then the two men stopped at the same time.
Because they saw it.
In the shadow of the branch in front of him, a figure seemed to stand.
A fixed eye look, the figure.
It seems the beast owned by the Baron.
What is she here now?
Do you regret it?
behind time!
This time, it was not about ten copper coins.
At least twenty copper coins!
"Ha ha, orc, it seems that your baron also regret it?
But now, it's not all that simple!"
Roy walked out of the shadow at the two greedy humans in front of him.
"It is really very sad, the master clearly gave you a chance."
Joel froze for a moment.
"sad? chance? What to say? Now, sadly, you are! Give the opportunity, is us!"
Roy shook his head somewhat regretfully.
Joel knew what she meant.
Roy's hand stretched, and his sharp nails stretched out!
The body is slightly curved, and then the foot of a step.
The whole person, like an arrow from the string, suddenly rushed towards them!
Joel and Courter were both stunned for a moment, apparently did not react.
But then their expressions suddenly turned into panic!
The baron.
They didn't send someone to call them back.
That baron, he wants their life!
That moment, they wanted to run.
But at their speed, how could they match Roy.
It was caught up in a twinkling of a eye.
Joel ran two steps, and suddenly found that Court, following his side, fell down.
Turn his head to look, immediately expression big terrible!
Because on Court's neck, there was a huge wound.
At this time, the wound is constantly spraying out with blood.
Kunte, dead!
"Give me away, beg me, money, I give you money, I have money, give me a horse,
No, I'll never do anything like that again."
Instead of answering Joel, Roy walked slowly toward him.
"be not allowed! You can't kill me! Some businessmen die here in you, and no more businessmen will come to you again!"
Roy was it, waving his right hand.
With a column of blood, the silence fell again.
"I am only responsible for the orders of your master, and you are wrong not to kill your master." For Roy, completing the master's command is the top priority.
Even without placing a command.
Then Roy wouldn't let these two go!
Because they began to kill their master!
She Roy will not let go of anyone who will possibly harm her master!
Not to mention, the master also gave the order, so there is no possibility of a second situation.
Moreover, this mission, is Roy's first real mission.
So she had to finish it carefully, acting out in front of the master.
If the first task can't even be done with anything that simple.
Then even she would look down on herself.
Looking at the two bodies on the ground, Roy's eyes were cold.
"This happens when I hear you plot to frame your master."
And then Roy suddenly remembered his master's orders.
Hurto dispose of the two bodies.
After doing all this, she was a little relieved.
"Call, Roy tried, after going back, do not know how the master will praise himself."
Remembering that scene, the beast ear niang's tail will swing very fast, the sense of expectation in the heart is also skyrocketing.
........
Inside the room, listening quietly to Roy reporting.
In fact, to be honest, if you can, I don't want to do this killer.
Business, after all.
Which has the high bid, unreasonable to give others to kill the reason?
He's not a bloodthirsty.
So after the first deal fails, they let them leave.
But the second time it was quite different.
He is not a bloodthirsty, but he is not a heavenly Virgin.
The two guys were obviously very serious.
Almost could think of what they would do next.
I guess I just have to attack myself.
Even if you are afraid to attack yourself because you are a noble person.
That would turn to its own residents.
Either of these two cases is intolerable.
And since they are all up to this point, we don't have to say much.
Instead of staying in the territory and waiting for someone else to kill him.
That's better to take the initiative to avoid future problems.
After hearing Roy's report, he laughed.
"Can't attack a businessman? Will no businessman come here after selling? He thought, I would want this?"
You can probably guess what he thinks it is.
Probably think that marginal territories like them, even if they don't need merchants for food.
You need businessmen in other ways.
This one is quite true.
But that is only temporary.
And they are too much on Romanier!
They dare not think so because the city of Romanil is underdeveloped.
If it would be King Carlo, how dare he say these words?
No matter how many merchants die in the royal city, as long as there is a reason.
The rest of the business people will still pass by.
Because the profit of Carlo King City is too high!
And as for Romanier City.
Backbehind, that's just the present.
According to the plan, the city of Romanier will soon develop completely.
Then the merchants will have to beg to let them in!
So for the two clowns, they take nothing seriously!
He smiled after hearing Roy's report.
"Roy, you did it very well this time, and it really helped me a lot."
Here we come!
The master has praised me!
Roy was overjoyed with the praise!
But then I thought about it.
No, no, calm down, cool down.
Look how calm the host has done with the merchant these two days.
Since they want to follow the master, that also have to calm down, a little more mature.
Can't embarrass the master.
Roy took a deep breath and then said flat, " Master, this is what I should do."
And Roy's expression was calm, but he knew it.
This beast ear niang, is in the installed.
what?
How do you see that?
This is also said.
Roy's expression was very well disguised.
But the girl's tail was swinging fast, and her ears were turning high.
Isn't that obvious enough?
Nor did he expose the beast who was trying to be mature.
"So how did you deal of the bodies of those two people?"
This age of paying little attention to hygiene.
Once the bodies pile up, it is easy to create the plague.
That would be a bit of trouble.
Roy said, " Master, I have removed the body from the main road.
Few people have passed by the surrounding city of Romanier, and that place would certainly not be found.
And also close to the silver moon forest, not in two days.
In the blood taste attracted, the warcraft inside the silver moon forest will be disposed of."
He nodded slightly.
"Well, that's good. . . . . . . . " The next morning, slowly wake up in the sun, stretch. With Romanier City gradually getting back on track, coupled with the small population, the life is relatively easy, and you can enjoy the natural sleep every day.
"Strange, why didn't Roy come to wake me up today?"
Since Roy became his maid, almost every morning he saw her by his side. But today.
After washing, he went out of the door to see what Roy was doing. As soon as he opened the door, he smelled a strange smell.
"What does it taste like?" He frowned.
He sniffed it, as if it were burnt.
Follow the smell, came to the kitchen. I saw Roy standing in front of the stove, as if in a daze. Black smoke was rising from the pot in front of her. It looked like it was on fire.
At the sound, Roy turned his head and said in some panic, " Oh, master, you are awake... why, what does it smell like? How is this..... ah! On fire, the pot is on fire,..."
Roy hurried on to clean up. Finally, the fire was put out, but the contents of the pot looked like some kind of dark food, and it would be taken to the hospital.
"Master, I'm sorry, I'm sorry... I... I don't know what, suddenly... I..." Roy cried, fearing losing his master's favor for his clumsiness.
Comfort her: " nothing, people will always have mistakes, just do it again."
In ed, Roy stabilized and cooked a new meal. This time, she made the dishes in color, smell and taste, let the full of praise.
He smiled and said, " Yes, Roy, your cooking skills are already very good."
Roy was very pleased to hear the praise.
And he asked, " But do you have something on your mind? I think you can be absent-minded sometimes."
Roy's ears fell, and a figure appeared to her, wondering what was going to the man. She wanted to find her, but she was worried about bothering her master.
Finally, Roy shook his head. " Master, I'm fine."
I didn't force her, but said, " Well, that's good, eat."
Roy was excited when she heard it, because she knew the food was delicious.
After dinner, wanting to see the latest work materials, Lewell came in and brought an unexpected news.
"My Lord, you are called for outside."
"Who is it?"
"It was the slave merchant, my master, that you bought Roy in his hand."
"Is it her? Will she come again?" To be honest, I didn't think that the slave merchant would come back. Although she said she owed 13 gold coins and promised to pay them off in five days, she did not expect that she could keep her promise. After all, traders, especially slave traders, did not feel that they would keep their promises.
In addition, five days of time has long passed, I thought this was just an empty word. However, she actually kept her promise, which made the slave merchant feel a little interesting. He does not know what she would bring this time. Although as a modern man, he is not interested in slavery, he currently needs manpower. If the slave is not orc or Terran, he can even get rewards, which is a good thing for him.
"Well, I know that."
At this time, the living room, sitting before the slave merchant. She was two people before, but now she is alone. She thought about the house. If someone else, her promise might have been a joke. But not really, when the first time she met, she felt extraordinary. Moreover, there are magic guides on the body, which let businessmen see business opportunities. A good relationship with such a leader with potential, business opportunities and not yet fully developed is certainly beneficial to businessmen.
The territory she found has changed dramatically over the days, and the lives of the residents have improved. She felt that her judgment was right, and her ability and potential interested her.
Then he came out of the inner house, and the slave merchant quickly put away his eyes. She was the first to say, " Lord, I am really sorry that I missed my appointment. I promised to come within five days, but I was delayed by some things. As a businessman, I should keep my word. I am really ashamed."
Then Roy came out of the inner house, and the slave merchant froze when he saw her. She didn't expect Roy to appear in this way, because she was an orc. This is very rare at a time when the relationship between Terran and orcs is tense. However, this just helps her in her business, because she does not reject the orcs.
Lausmile: " it doesn't matter, after all, now it is coming winter, the businessman at this time must be very busy, some things delayed is very normal. I didn't expect you to come back."
The slave merchant said, " This is inevitable. We businessmen are integrity, and where possible, we will try our best to keep the agreement, which is the foundation of business."
Not too seriously, the businessmen are honest? Say you can fly, you are not missed the appointment? Besides, the two merchants were so dark, ordinary businessmen were like this, how good are you a slave merchant? However, since she came today is to pay back the money, or politely said: " That is natural, no integrity, business can not do."
After some formality, the slave merchant began to get to the subject: " My Lord, I want to pay off the 13 gold coins I owed you last time. The slaves I brought are just outside. Ask your Lord to see if you are satisfied."
