Luther has always been a curious and courageous guy.
So he asked: "Why does the Mountain Eagle need gold coins?"
The Alpine Eagle glanced at Luther very peacefully, and then said: "A red dragon brought her cubs to a crater near Eagle Mountain to build a nest. She charged us a protection fee of 200,000 gold coins. Wang Da But she, therefore, did not choose to use force to suppress her, and sent me here."
In fact, it didn't come specifically to find Luther, because the Eagle King had never asked about Luther's origins, so naturally he didn't know where Luther was.
The mountain eagle just flew north and landed when it passed the first city.
But the mountain eagles obviously remembered Luther, after all, their king sent an unprecedented ten snow flowers.
The Mountain Eagles obviously also understood the value of Ming Snowflakes, so they brought fifteen Ming Snowflakes in exchange for two hundred thousand gold coins.
The extra part is regarded as labor fee for human beings.
Luther and the three were stunned after hearing this. A red dragon robbed a group of mountain eagles and succeeded.
The Eagle King didn't even fight and immediately chose to surrender.
Lawful creatures are indeed a group of rational creatures.
Then the three members of the Pompeii family felt a little worried, because Pompeii Castle had been attacked by dragons many times in history.
The dragon looted wealth and caused casualties.
Eagle Mountain is not close to Pompeii, but not far either. It is definitely within the deterrent range of a red dragon.
The key now is whether this red dragon wants to come to the human world and rob it.
Because since the rise of humans, many dragons have known that robbing humans is risky. They may fail and be killed by dragons instead.
However, incidents of robbing humans or being killed by dragons still happened frequently.
It depends on the age of the dragon.
The five types of dragons, the five-color dragon, the red dragon, the blue dragon, the green dragon, the black dragon, and the white dragon, are extremely greedy and evil existences. They are also very irritable, irritable, and believe in their own power.
The younger the dragon, the more eager it is to show off its power and start a war. Of course, this results in a high mortality rate. When a five-color dragon gets older, they will choose to use other methods to rob wealth. .
For example, collect protection fees.
Just like this time the red dragon blackmailed the mountain eagle.
But this is not absolute. Whether the red dragon will rob humans depends on what the red dragon thinks.
All in all, the red dragon is definitely one of the most difficult creatures in the world.
By the way, because dragons keep robbing humans of gold coins, and before they die, dragons will find a secret place to bury themselves and their wealth.
Therefore, although humans continue to discover gold mines, the value of gold has always been stable and has not depreciated.
In this respect, dragons are like the banks of this world, stabilizing the value of currency.
Amen.
But worries are worries, and worrying has no effect. Because even the King of Eagles has chosen to surrender this red dragon with its cubs, so it is impossible to defend it with Pompeii's strength.
Even the Earl of Libya may not be able to stop such a powerful dragon.
If the other party comes to collect protection fees, Luther can only hold his nose and admit it, and pay the tax obediently.
Hell, the lord still has to pay taxes.
horrible.
Putting aside these things, Luther will naturally not refuse the request of the Mountain Eagle. If nothing else, just talking about the Snow Flower last time, Luther should also help this group of lawful creatures.
"Okay, please wait for a day while I collect some gold coins." Luther picked up the snowflakes on the ground and took over the matter.
"Thank you, human being." The mountain eagle said gratefully.
"You're welcome, Mr. Mountain Eagle." Luther also said.
There was no place in the castle to entertain the Mountain Eagle, so Luther could only let the Mountain Eagle stay outside the castle. Then Luther sent his father to Kaiyue City to borrow 200,000 gold coins.
Dad's face was useful in the past, but now the great knight's dad's face is even more useful.
Borrowing money was out of the question, because neither Luther nor Luther's partners had any money anymore. The 200,000 gold coins Luther got from selling flowers had already been spent.
Only Baron Philippe still has money.
Selling Snow Flowers takes time, and water far away cannot save the fire nearby. However, after Luther sent his father, he still took fifteen Snow Flowers to the Alice Ranch in the west of the city and asked Miss Alice to help sell them.
Drop these snowflakes.
From a business perspective, Luther still made a profit from this transaction.
Because fifteen Snow Flowers were worth 300,000 gold coins. After deducting the 200,000 given to the Mountain Eagle, he still made a small profit of 100,000 gold coins.
Mu Cuo, for Luther, who now has a big family and a big business, one hundred thousand can only be considered a small amount of money.
When Luther came to the Alice Ranch, the beautiful Miss Alice was wearing a smart outfit and a horse hat, riding a white purebred horse, walking leisurely on the open pasture.
Thoroughbred horse is a very precious horse breed.
Thoroughbred horses are just a concept, but not a classification. Because there are many types of thoroughbred horses, such as Prussian thoroughbred horses.
Thoroughbred horses are called thoroughbreds because humans only breed them with horses of the same species.
Once a horse is mixed, it is no longer a thoroughbred.
Thoroughbred horses are generally used as excellent racehorses and mounts for nobles.
Excellent hunting dogs and pet dogs, also reserved for nobles.
Alice's business is to bet that in the future Pompeii will have many wealthy nobles.
In fact, the money earned from this kind of business is only a small amount of money, which is not as good as real estate. At present, Miss Alice has obtained a piece of land and is under construction.
I believe that once Pompeii develops into a city, she will become a rich woman.
"Why do you have time to come to my place to play?" Miss Alice looked sideways at Luther who was riding a horse, and then she didn't get off her horse, just sitting on the horse and asked Luther.
Lack of manners, education, and casually spreading hormones.
This is the virtue of the eldest daughter of a great baronet.
Luther didn't want to get off his horse and look up at the lady, so he had no choice but to sit on the horse and communicate with her.
"I have fifteen snow flowers, can you help me sell them?" Luther took a bag from behind the horse and opened the bag to reveal ten snow flowers.
This kind of flower is Miss Alice's jewelry. Miss Alice is very familiar with it.
"You actually got fifteen more snow flowers?" Miss Alice said jealously, her beautiful big eyes turning red.
If you can obtain unlimited snow flowers from the hands of the mountain eagle, what other business can you do? You can become a top rich man just by selling snow flowers.
Because Alice will always remember the hundreds of snow-white flowers flying on the top of Eagle Mountain.
