Chapter 898

Above the main hall, the atmosphere is solemn.

King Kashima pressed his handprint on the list of indemnities with trepidation.

"Master Consul, I can't afford so much money for a while, can you give me some time?"

"You don't have to worry about this, I will naturally give you some time." Equation gestured three fingers, "Three years, you have to pay back the 100 million copper coins with interest in three years."

King Kashima said cautiously: "Can you give me some more time?"

Fang Fang flatly refused, "No, three years is three years."

King Kashima just felt dizzy before his eyes. If you say that when the pirate industry in Kashima was developed, he could still enjoy the profits and collect the taxes paid by these pirates. Now the pirates have been wiped out by the roots, and there is no such thing as quick money. , Where to go to get so much money.

"Master Consul, my deer island is just a barren island. Most of the soil on the island is red soil that cannot grow crops. The people rely on going out to sea to fish for a living. The annual tax is pitifully small. It's a shame. Not so much money." Kashima King eloquently asked Equation for more time.

"This is a problem that you, as a king, should solve." Equation was resolute.

"I... ugh..."

King Kashima sighed, what can he do? It is still what Equation said just now, who made him a defeated country.

In addition to signing an indemnity agreement, Equation also signed several other treaties on behalf of Wanguo and the king of Kashima. The general content is that Kashima will not take any armed actions against Wanguo in the future; Wan Guo's ships can freely enter and exit Kashima port. The king of Kashima must personally go to the nations for an audience every year and so on.

After signing a series of treaties, the negotiations between the two sides have come to an end.

According to the agreement, before the army of all nations left Kashima, the supreme ruler of Kashima was Equation. Only after the army of all nations left, the king of Kashima could resume his status as king.

Right now, the soldiers of Wan Guo are raiding the palace, and all valuable things will be used to compensate for the compensation.

Unlike the noisy scene inside the city, the outside of Ludao City seemed a bit deserted.

It just rained yesterday and it was wet everywhere.

Fang Fang wanted to come out of the city to get some fresh air, so he brought Lianna along.

The weather in Kashima often has showers. In order to facilitate travel, both of them wore bamboo hats and coir raincoats. Another advantage of wearing this way is that they are not easy to be recognized by the people of Kashima.

Looking at Lianna who was wearing a coir raincoat and a bamboo hat beside her, she had two completely different styles from Hathaway yesterday.

Hathaway has the kind of temperament and beauty that can't be concealed even by plain clothes. She can become the focus of the crowd wherever she goes, and those around her can be overwhelmed by just one more look.

Lianna changed into this attire, exuding a faint murderous aura from the inside out, and just passing by her could make people shudder.She is a born killer, and the cold eyes under the bamboo hat make people shudder.

If there is a trace of tenderness occasionally flashing in the eyes of this killer girl, it is just an equation for her side.

"When are we going back to Ten Thousand Kingdoms?" Liana asked.

"I'll go back when everything here is settled." Fang Fang said with a smile, "Soon, three days at most."

The two were walking outside the city, chatting casually about what happened in Kashima these days.

Lianna is usually a taciturn person, only when she is alone with Fang Fang, she is willing to share her thoughts with him.

"Did you go out with Hathaway yesterday?" Liana seemed a little jealous.

"Yeah, let's go for a walk around the city together." Fang Fang didn't notice Liana's reaction.

Suddenly, Lianna looked at the equation seriously, "You must take me with you when you go out in the future!" After finishing speaking, Lianna's cheeks blushed involuntarily, realizing that she looked so abrupt just now, the shy Lianna quickly Explain, "I mean Kashima City is very dangerous. If you encounter any danger, I can protect you if you are by my side."

"Is it as simple as just protecting me?"

"Of course!"

Liana now looks like a kitten whose tail has been grabbed, her face flushed with shame.

Fang Fang felt happy, this girl was obviously jealous, but she still refused to admit it.Thinking of Lianna's feelings for him, Fang Fang suddenly felt relieved.

However, thinking about it, Equation has yet to convince himself to get Lianna.

The relationship between him and Liana is a bit special. There is a feeling of sympathy between the two, and they often go through life and death together, like brothers and sisters, lovers, and comrades-in-arms.

So in fact, both he and Lianna don't quite know what this relationship is. Since they can't even explain what it is, it is even more difficult for them to develop further.

Perhaps Lianna didn't want to get anything more often, as long as she could walk side by side with the equation like now, it was enough.

Fang Fang didn't speak any more, just walked forward quietly with Liana.

Before walking too far, a river appeared in front of the two of them.

There are two rivers on Deer Island, one is to the west of the island and the other is to the east of the island. The place where the two are standing now is the river to the east.

At this time, dark clouds drifted overhead, and it began to rain lightly in the sky of Kashima. The bamboo hats worn by the two of them just came in handy.

The two stood by the river, staring at the water in a daze.

The raindrops fell on the river, creating circles of water ripples.

After about a few minutes, the river became turbulent, and the sediment was swept into the river by the rain, and rushed down together with the river.

"The river has turned red!"

Liana looked a little surprised, the river water that was still fine just now had turned dark red.

Equation also felt very strange, why did the river suddenly turn red.

In order to find out what was going on, Fang Fang cut a piece of bamboo from the nearby bamboo forest and filled a tube of river water with the bamboo tube.

After settling for a while, the red river water became much clearer, and a layer of red sand settled on the bottom of the bamboo tube.

Fang Fang poured out the river water in the bamboo tube, leaving only the red sand inside, took some with his hands and rubbed it with his fingertips, and he could feel a gritty feeling.

"You smell it."

After rubbing, Fang Fang first smelled it by himself, and then let Lianna smell it again.

Liana frowned, and said in surprise: "It smells like rust. Could it be that the red river is due to rust?"

The equation at this moment is already full of joy, and the corners of his mouth can't hide his happy smile. Thinking of the red soil that King Kashima said before, it is very likely to be this kind of "sediment" that dyes the river red.
