Chapter 130 VI

He can afford it and let it go, and his conversation is decent. If it weren't for their different positions and camps, Leon would be very willing to be friends with this tiger-born female knight. 【】

In contrast, the Roddick wolf knight next to him looked more like a clown.

"Knight Confone, you are too polite. It is my duty to defend the territory." Leon nodded indifferently: "I will report the achievements I have made to the Provincial Garrison and the Temple of Tormund."

The Beamon Kingdom is the most important military exploits. If most nobles do not make military exploits, it will be difficult to climb to a higher level in their lifetime.

When Leon was in the Howling Forest before, due to lack of understanding, the goblins and black elves that led the tribe to eliminate did not become real gains, and naturally they were not recognized by the kingdom.

After winning this time in the Underdark, he did not forget the previous lesson. All the eliminated black elves and hobgoblin fighters left behind symbolic gains.

The head and nose of these two sacks, if they get the military headquarters, it is a real achievement, and it will also be an important weight for Leon to be promoted to a higher title in the future.

With this record and the dedication of [-] gold coins, the provincial garrison is absolutely worth talking about.

If it is serious and Leon can prove the record of destroying a city of goblins, then as long as the temple supports him, it will not be a problem for him to be promoted again.

Confony understood this, so her attitude towards Leon immediately changed.

And Leon also wanted to be too showy, as the saying goes, Thrall still needs a period of stable development, and he didn't want to attract too many attentions.

"Lord Baron, you can actually report your achievements to the provincial garrison through us." Roddick said as he touched the sack on the ground.

He woke up from the shock just now, and an extremely complicated expression flashed in his wolf eyes: "We can also explain the situation of Thrall to the Garrison Department, which will benefit both of us."

Saar Territory belongs to the Grai area, and the Rock Fortress is the headquarters of the Garrison Army in the Grai area. If Leon's achievements are reported by the Rock Fortress, both sides will indeed benefit.

It's just that if there were no past festivals, Leon might really be a good friend, but he is not a naive teenager in his teens.

Leon didn't think that if he gave this kind of favor, his grievances with the Rock Fortress would be wiped out, and who could guarantee that the fortress wouldn't swallow his military achievements and bite him back?

This Roddick doesn't seem like a good guy, thinking that Leon will accept it with a fake smile?

Go dream!

Leon didn't answer, but just looked at Confony with a half-smile expression on his face.

Confony sighed softly: "Roddick, Baron Leon has his own ideas, and we can't force them."

After a pause, she continued: "I will report the suggestion of Thrall to the military department, Baron Leon, it's time for us to take our leave now."

Leon stood up and said with a smile, "There's no need to be so anxious. I want to hold a dinner for the two of you tonight to express my apologies for making you wait for three days."

However, neither Confony nor Roddick had any intention of staying, especially the wolf knight who felt that his face had been completely wiped out, his eyes wanted to eat people, and before leaving, he gave Leon a venomous look.

After seeing off the two uninvited guests, Leon immediately asked Concordia to go to Tormund City with the spoils and [-] gold coins.

With the relationship of the temple, it will not be any surprise that this record is recognized.

.........

Thrall ushered in a new night.

The cool evening breeze took away the heat of summer and brought the breath of green forests in the distance. The city of Saar, which was just lit up, became more and more noisy.

The Porcupine Bar is extremely lively, bold and rude mercenaries, shrewd businessmen, down-and-out bards...all of them can find their place here.

The maids here have finally been replaced by beautiful cat-born and bunny-born girls. Facing the competition from several other bars in the city, the owner Fat Li Cha finally understands the ultimate truth that only relying on good food is the way to make a lot of money.

He recruited four bar girls through the mercenary union at a high price, and the business really boomed.

The wandering artist holding the matouqin huddled in the corner and sang the praises of the warriors, and the mercenaries talked and laughed loudly. This place became the epitome of the prosperity of the emerging territory.

When Leon came to the Porcupine Bar, he couldn't find a vacant seat, so he could only stand in front of the bar like other latecomers, and asked the cat girl who had two dimples when she laughed, for a glass of ale.

It has been three days since he returned to Thrall City from the Dark Lands, and during these three days, Leon was dealing with the accumulated things in the Lord's Mansion.

At present, Thrall is gradually getting on the right track, and there are many busy affairs that follow. Although some of them are handled by Elder Monstein and others, the most important decisions still have to be made by him.

For the future of the territory, Leon had to think hard, and it was rare to come out to relax at night.

Fat Li Cha was not there, and the mercenaries and new girls in the bar didn't know him, but Leon felt more natural, and he didn't want his appearance to spoil the atmosphere here.

After drinking a glass of cold ale, Leon felt much more relaxed.

"Guest, would you like another glass? The newly brewed ale is very fresh!" the catwoman behind the bar asked with a smile.

"Oh! Let's have another drink!" Leon chuckled.

This catwoman is dressed in a black and white maid outfit, with a pretty figure and small fluffy ears, which is very cute.

"Oh! It's over, it's all over..."

Leon was about to open his mouth to tease her, when suddenly there was a burst of long sighs from the side, the tone was so sad that those who heard it were sad and those who listened to tears.

Curious in his heart, Leon couldn't help turning his head away.

I saw a fox-born businessman sitting beside him.

He was about forty years old, dressed like the most common gray camel businessman, with a haggard look and dull eyes, holding a glass of ale in his hand, he didn't know what he was thinking, he looked like he was almost drunk.

The Bimeng fox descendants are naturally intelligent. As one of the six great clans, they can almost be said to control the economic lifeline of the kingdom, and there are countless fox descendants engaged in commerce.

The business sense of fox-born merchants is extremely keen, and there are quite a few small merchants like this in the city of Saar.

"Mr. Ranieri is drunk again..." The cat girl behind the bar shook her head with a sympathetic look on her face: "He is so pitiful!"

"What's going on?" Leon asked, and picked up the ale handed over by the cat girl.

The cat girl sighed and said: "Mr. Ranieri's business is in a loss. He has been drinking with me for three days, and every time he gets drunk and asks someone to take him back to the hotel. If I continue to drink like this, he will die of drinking! "

It turned out that this guy named Ranieri had followed his family elders to run the merchant province since he was a child, and had been to many places in the mainland. He was considered a senior businessman.

But I don't know if it is the curse of fate. Others have done well for more than ten years, but he has been a low-level small businessman for decades.

It's not that he doesn't work hard, but that bad luck always follows him. When his business gets better, he encounters unexpected disasters. As soon as he has savings, he is wiped out immediately. Even his colleagues stay away from him, for fear of getting bad luck.

This time he heard that Thrall had great business opportunities, so he organized a small caravan with all his resources to fight for a turnaround. Unexpectedly, he first met the inspection team in Collingworth and was confiscated. A handsome heavy tax.

Then on the way to Thrall, he lost two more gray camels, and finally arrived in Thrall City.

Originally, he thought that selling the goods here could make up for his losses, but he didn't expect that the goods he brought were not rare in Saar City, and the price was even cheaper than outside!

The goods are all in the hands and cannot be sold, and it is even more impossible to bring them back, because the caravan led from Thrall passes through Colinworth, and the goods brought will have to be taxed again!

Now Ranieri completely collapsed. In desperation, he came to the Porcupine Bar every day to drink away his sorrows. The cat girl also learned about it after chatting with him.

"What kind of goods did he bring?" Leon asked curiously, "Why can't they be sold in the city of Thrall?"

The cat girl said with a smile: "Most of them are produced by the human race, such as porcelain, weapons, spices and so on."

Porcelain weapons?Leon also laughed when he heard that. Porcelain, weapons, etc. produced by the human race are the best-selling commodities in the Beamon Kingdom, and the risk of long-distance trafficking is not small and the profit is not low.

But Ranieri didn't know that although the Saarland was located in a wild area on the edge of the kingdom, it was not a primitive society. The craftsmen of Rubin's clan all had unique skills, and firing porcelain and refining weapons were their strengths.

There are several weapons and porcelain workshops in Saar City, and there are also many corresponding shops, and the accumulated goods that cannot be sold abroad are full of warehouses.

Under such circumstances, the fox-born businessman came here with a large number of porcelain weapons, and it would be strange if he didn't lose everything!

It is estimated that the luck of this businessman is really cursed, but Leon also admires him a lot. He has been accompanied by ups and downs and bad luck for decades, but he has always persisted. This perseverance and perseverance are undoubtedly worthy of admiration.

Leon's heart suddenly moved, and he said to the cat girl, "Bring me a glass of wisteria juice."

Wisteria juice is the juice squeezed from a vine plant in the forest. After preparation, it tastes sweet and delicious, and has a good sobering effect.

The cat girl felt a little strange, but she followed Leon's instructions to make wisteria juice.

Leon reached out and patted the fox-born businessman on the shoulder, and the other party turned his head drunkenly: "Who are you? What do you want to do? I'm bankrupt now, and I can't afford to hire mercenaries!"

He regarded Leon as a mercenary for business.

Leon smiled and said, "Mr. Ranieri, right? I'm not a mercenary. I want to negotiate a deal with you, big deal!"

"Business? What big business?" Ranieri was still confused: "Don't talk to me, just kidding, you want to laugh at me, right? It must be!"

Leon didn't talk nonsense with this drunk, and took the wisteria juice from the cat girl.

He stretched out his hand and pinched Ranieri's chin, forcing him to open his mouth, and quickly poured wisteria juice from his mouth!

Caught off guard, Ranieri gulped down the purple juice, almost choking it out of his nose.

After all this, and adding wisteria juice, the effect was really good, the fox-born businessman finally woke up: "You, what do you want to do?"

"I said before, I want to do a business with you, a business that may change your fate." Leon said lightly, "Are you really not going to listen?"

Ranieri was completely stunned, he couldn't understand what Leon meant, but he also felt that Leon was not joking.

"It's too noisy here, let's go to the tea restaurant opposite and talk slowly!" Leon said, and threw a yellow gold coin to the cat girl: "You don't need to look for it, the rest is your tip."

"Thank you, sir!" The cat girl happily accepted the gold coins, and winked at Leon. Such a generous guest is rare.

After sitting down in the small private room of the tea restaurant, Ranieri came to his senses completely. "You, no, you are Lord Baron Leon, the lord of the Thrall Territory?"

The fox-born businessman's eyes were bigger than copper bells, and his expression suddenly became excited.

As a senior businessman, he suddenly realized that this might really be an opportunity to change his destiny, and his only concern was whether Leon was lying to him.

But Ranieri thinks about it carefully, he almost owns everything, what else is worth cheating by the other party?

"Yes, as long as we can reach a deal, I can take you to the Lord's Mansion later..." Leon nodded and said, "Mr. Ranieri, I don't want to talk nonsense."

"I can buy all your goods with money, and as a condition, you need to work for me and join the chamber of commerce that will be established in Thrarland. Of course, the salary will be paid according to the regulations, and you will not lose a copper coin."

Is there such a good thing?Ranieri couldn't believe his ears.

Surprised, he suddenly felt inexplicable panic: "But, Lord Baron, my luck seems to be really cursed by the god of fate, I'm afraid..."

"You don't need to be afraid of failure. You used to make money for yourself, but now you make money for me..." Leon laughed, "The nature is completely different."

"I just ask you, are you willing to work for me?"

"Yes, I do!" Ranieri said loudly.

He felt that he seemed to have really touched the skirt of the goddess of fortune. He was in hell but suddenly found the light ahead, and the excitement in his heart was beyond words.

He has failed too many times and is so eager for a chance to change his destiny.

Whether it is such an opportunity to play for Leon, Ranieri does not know yet, but he vowed in his heart to do his best to work hard.

Because of him, I can no longer afford to lose!

"Very good, then from now on, you will be the general manager of our Thrall Chamber of Commerce!"
