069 Quiet

Comos really wanted to go to Black Tu City to confirm the situation personally, but he also had a lot of troubles recently. According to the spies and scouts in the family, some unknown people appeared near their manor during this period. They were very slippery and could be seen occasionally, but they could not be caught. As soon as they got up, they disappeared.

Comos knew that he was targeted by some force, and it was most likely the Soul Thinker Association.

He burned the letter in his hand into ashes with the power of the fire element, sprinkled it into the trash can next to him, and then wrote a sealed letter, called his confidant, asking him to rush to Black Soil City overnight and handed it over to Howard. This confidant was good at concealing and counter-tracking, and soon handed the secret letter to the latter's hands safely.

Howard opened the secret letter with great anticipation and saw that the words above were shorter: Patience, come!

He was so angry that he fell down something for nearly a night.

Comos's confidant was not discovered by a spy who was suspected of a soul-thinking person, but unexpectedly found the tail by Zelonger's people. That night, Zelonger's desk was on his desk. While tasting fruit wine, he guessed what the hell did with Howard and Comos colluded with each other and wanted to make a name for themselves.

The servant came in and reported that Thorhua wanted to see him.

"Father, what's wrong with calling me late that night?" Zelonger asked strangely.

Thorhua had bloodshot eyes, but he seemed very excited: "Rewards came from the front. Fold had already brought the Qianyang Village and Yinmu Village of Tachibana. When he was preparing to attack Ximu Town, Tachibana's scout squadron discovered the traces. Because the opponent's number was superior, they did not fight with the enemy, but chose to retreat and were now back to Heizu City."

Zelonger smiled, and he was truly happy for his friends: "This is the best news I have heard this year."

"Same, my child." Thorhua's finger moved on the military map, and finally clicked the city of Lidaya in Tarantula: "Now, we just need to wait patiently for the bastard Schumacher to come to us for negotiations. Believe me, this time will be very fast."

It was indeed as Thorhua predicted that Schumacher's diplomatic envoy arrived soon. After two days of hanging up, Thorhua slowly received the envoy whose lips were almost bubbled.

"Dear Lord of Black Tu City, you are finally willing to meet me." The envoy is named Lyon, he looks ordinary and has no strength. He should be a civilian: "I believe you should also know why I am here. We, the people of Lihuashu, have always been straightforward in our work. I won't say much about anything else. Please offer a price for the ransom. I want to bring the two young masters back to China."

Thorwah said slowly: "It depends on how much Schumacher values ​​his two heirs."

"No matter how much it is, it is easy to discuss. Please give me a price."

Thorhua smiled and slapped.

"A total of 50,000 gold coins?" Lyon asked.

Thorhua said: "No, it's 50,000 per person. As for the other prisoners of war, I'll give it to you as gifts."

Lyon shook his head: "The amount of this ransom is too outrageous, I can't make a decision."

"In this case, we can only feel sorry for Schumacher's two heirs to stay here for a while." Thorhua said with a smile.

Lyon looked around and whispered: "I have a suggestion..."

Thorhua waved his hand and retreated from his left and right.

"Lord Schumacher is willing to pay twenty gold coins to redeem the two young masters, but I hope you can add more valuable things to it?" Lyon said sinisterly.

"Two hundred thousand gold coins? So generous?" Thorhua was a little moved: "This should be the tax revenue of Lidaya in the past decade or so. What exactly does Schumacher want?"

"The little nobleman in Graystone Village." Lyon said slowly: "Since he is a member of Black Earth City, you should have the right to deprive him of his title. A little nobleman sold 100,000 gold coins, I think this is a good deal. What do you think?"

Thorwah sneered: "Are you sure Schumacher has no problem with his head?"

"Twenty-five thousand gold coins."

Thorhua frowned and said displeased: "No need to talk about this."

"Three hundred thousand gold coins."

Thorhua hesitated for a moment: "I said, there is no need to talk about this anymore."

"Thirty-five thousand gold coins."

Thorhua's breathing became rapid. He was silent for a long time before saying, "If you increase your price, I will kill you directly, do you understand?"

Lyon thought it was a pity that he could succeed just by just a little plan, but Thorhua's character really exceeded his expectations: "I understand, Your Excellency. But I think it's a pity that you lost this time. 250,000 gold coins can be placed anywhere, and you can buy the life of an ancient family heir. I think there will be many people willing to do this."

Thorhua waved his hand: "Go and take your two young masters away."

Seeing that there was no hope of success, Lyon sighed disappointed and turned away.

Shortly after the person left, Thor would support his forehead with his right hand and cursed in distress: "Niang Xipi is worthy of being an old nobleman with a strong foundation. He actually used 250,000 gold coins to buy the life of his enemy. I saved it for more than 20 years and only saved 130,000 gold coins. This bastard Schumacher is such a fucking prodigal."

Not long after, Zelonger walked in: "Father, we got the ransom, 100,000. As expected, war is the most profitable business, but the premise is to be able to win."

"Let Fold send 50,000 gold coins to Greystone Village to His Excellency Chen Xiansong."

Zelonger said with some dissatisfaction: "There are too many."

"This is what he deserves." Thorhua smiled and said, "If it weren't for his efforts, we wouldn't even get a gold coin. To be honest, we have already taken a lot of money. Just move our mouths and get a lot of money. Besides... there are only benefits and no harm to establish a good relationship with a soul-thinking person who is good at war."

Zelonger thought for a while and felt that it was.

In the afternoon of that day, Folde transported 50,000 gold coins to Graystone Village. The village containing the gold coins was about fifty boxes, and it took four large trucks to load it.

When Folde arrived at the Graystone Village, the whole village was in a celebratory atmosphere. The reason was very simple. Chen Xiansong's manor villa was just completed. It was a six-story building made of bluestone rock, which looked like a small castle. In fact, it could indeed be transformed into a small "fortress" at critical moments. Because wars often occurred in this era, the nobles outside the city liked to live in such a safe building.

Fifty boxes filled with gold coins were transported into the cellar room of the manor in full view. Chen Xiansong asked Fold to stay with him to celebrate, but he refused to have official duties and barely drank a few glasses of fruit wine before leaving. He never looked at Bai Min again because he knew that this girl was not the Elna in his mind.

Da Tie sat on the stone among the trees and watched Folde lead the cavalry away under the village.

Benjamin came over with a large bowl of fruit wine. He asked Datie in confusion: "Why don't you attend the celebration held by His Excellency Chen Xiansong?"

Da Tie held the iron spear and turned his head to ask him: "Tell me, how can I have powerful power?"

Benjamin frowned and said, "You haven't given up yet? You should have seen that she is not a human at all... No, she is definitely not a woman that we mercenaries with low strength can deserve."

"I like her." Da Tie said stubbornly: "I like her more and more. Although I am stupid, I also know that with my current strength, I will never be able to get him. Benjamin, you once told me that knowledge is a kind of power, power is a kind of power, wealth is a kind of power, and murder skills are also a kind of power. In terms of murder skills, I think I can never compare to her, so I want to work hard from other aspects... tell me how to get power, wealth, or knowledge."

Benjamin smiled bitterly: "If I knew how to get power and wealth, why would I still be a mercenary here."

Datie was very disappointed.

Benjamin endured the pain caused by his thoughts, thought hard for a while, and said, "But you can try to join the army. If you have good luck, you don't die on the battlefield and make enough military achievements, you may be promoted to become a general and get the title of aristocratic, but the hope is very slim. In the military, it is much crueler than our mercenary world."

Da Tie held a spear and murmured to himself: "Join the army?"

When Benjamin saw his expression, he felt something was wrong: "Hey, I'm just talking, you won't take it seriously."

There are many flower gardens in the new manor, so Chen Xiansong named this six-story "small castle" Pinhuaju.

After moving in, Chen Xiansong lived a "parasite" life of sleeping in every day and getting up when he was eating.

Private armed guards have been established, and Balph and Lena both took the time to recruit enough personnel from the mercenary union. Because they belonged to two different leaders, these two teams were somewhat inconsistent when they met. They often had minor frictions and conflicts. Of course, these behaviors were carried out in places that Chen Xiansong could not see.

If there are too many small conflicts, it will eventually turn into a big event. One day, one of Balff's subordinates was beaten to the point of bleeding, and he was in a coma, and was seriously injured. These people were all comrades in his former mercenary group, and they had a deep relationship. When Balff saw it, he immediately became angry and took his subordinates to argue with Lena.

Rena was training her subordinates. Seeing Balff coming over with a momentum, she stepped forward and asked, "What happened? Judging from your expression, it seems that she is trying to find fault."

Balff said with a gloomy face: "Take the person who hurt my brother."

Reina also knew that her subordinates were not very careful in their work, but the other party rushed to the door with aura. If they were bad now, their subordinates would not accept him in their hearts. In this case, even if they ignored him, they would have to resist. She smiled coldly and said, "You say you can hand over it if you hand it over? Besides, why do you say that my subordinates injured your brother?"

Balff said angrily: "Who else is besides your men?"

"Maybe he fell like that by himself." A fried dough stick under Rena shouted, and then there was a burst of laughter.

"Rena, do you still want to mess with your master?" Balff threatened.

"If you are bullied, just cry to the adults?" The strong Reina looked at the other party with contemptuous eyes: "Do you really think you are a six-year-old child?"

Reina's men burst into laughter again.

Balff's face turned black almost to charcoal: "Since that's the case, according to the rules of the mercenary world, we fight bulls one-on-one."

Rena smiled: "You are a river-level mercenary, but you dare to challenge me."

"I don't think you don't look like a Sichuan-level mercenary." Balff suddenly laughed: "I think your strength is almost the same as mine at most. Sichuan-level...hehe, it's a blow."

Hearing this, Lena's face also became gloomy: "You are seeking death, don't blame me." She pointed outside: "The water in the paddy fields has been dried up, and the place is big enough. We are fighting bulls there. If you have the courage, come with me."

When I heard "play" to watch, the teams on both sides made shocking roars. The profession of mercenaries is born to join in the fun and like violent things.

Rena walked in front and Balff was about to follow him when Sophia, who followed him, grabbed him and whispered: "Fighting bulls with Sichuan-level mercenaries, are you having a problem with your brain?"

But Balff replied: "I have been observing her for a long time. Don't you think she doesn't seem to be as powerful as we imagined? Maybe she is just like that, or maybe... We have been trained by Ms. Bai Min for so long, and the results have come out. No matter what, I want to try it. I don't want an outsider to be on our heads. The most important thing is that she is quite disrespectful to her master. I think she has her own plans and is not so loyal to her master."

"So that's it." Sophia lets go of Balff: "If this happens, I have no reason to stop you. I will praise her hard. In fact, I have long disliked her."

"I'll do my best." Balff smiled and walked forward.

Both of them are warriors, and the weapons they use are all wide-blade swords.

After the sword raising ceremony before the bullfight, the broad swords of both sides collided fiercely, and fire appeared on Rena's sword, while Balff's broad-blade sword turned gray-brown, like hard grey iron stone. The two seemed to be comparable.

Lena exclaimed, a little surprised.

And Balff had a "very sure" expression.

"Ula!"

"Come on, captain."

All kinds of cheers burst out, and a greystone village was heard, and almost everyone was attracted. Chen Xiansong turned over on the bed and muttered in his dream: "It's so noisy..." and then covered his head with a quilt.

Bai Min frowned in the kitchen. She asked Alice to continue cooking, but then she tied her apron and walked out of the door.

"Quiet, you've quarreled to Xiao Song to sleep." Bai Min said slowly behind the forty-nine mercenaries. The crisp girl voice was still transmitted to everyone around him even in this noisy environment.

Sophia shook all over and immediately covered her mouth and retreated far away.

The mercenaries paused and turned around and saw that it was Bai Min. Some of them whistled frivolously, but more people continued to cheer loudly. There seemed to be mocking sounds like: "Isn't it just a maid, what arrogance..."

This group of mercenaries are newcomers and do not know about the Three Hundred Bow Knights. Because the scene was too bloody, all the insiders in the village kept silent about that matter. Even now, Rena and Mona only know that there has been a murder recently, but they don’t know who the perpetrator was.

The most important thing is that Bai Min has now entered the "energy-saving mode". The unknown substances wrapped around her body are vague. Newcomers cannot see through her strength and regard her as a very beautiful "vase".

These mercenaries did not have any sense of awe of Bai Min, and they did not even have any good feelings for Chen Xiansong. In their opinion, Chen Xiansong was just a white-faced nobleman who only knew how to eat and sleep and eat, and had a good background.

"Warning, if the noise is not stopped in three seconds, the goal will be achieved by force." Bai Min said lightly.

No one paid attention to her, and the mercenaries continued to look at the fight in the paddy fields not far away, cheering loudly.

“3,2,1. Take action by force and start!”

Bai Min waved a slap, and the mercenary closest to her seemed to have its face concave, and she flew up, and six or seven teeth mixed with blood spit out of her mouth.
