Chapter 353: As long as you're in Europe
On the side of the street, the woke people lit up the oil lamps, pushed open the windows with sleepy eyes, scolded and yelled downstairs, and poured a basin of footwater by the way. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
"Bastard, you spoiled Lao Tzu's dreams!"
"Give me a knife, I'll cut your tongues out!"
......
The noise outside was overwhelming for a while, and then soon, the yawning people were not interested in making trouble, closed the window and continued to sleep with their heads covered.
Late at night, silence returns.
Santiago lit a few oil lamps and stood beside Zheng Fei in an orderly manner, acting as a bodyguard.
The Spartan warriors carried out several corpses that had fallen to the ground, and even though the blood could ignite their desire to fight, the thick smell of blood was still disgusting.
The tavern, which had been immersed in darkness for a long time, finally saw a ray of light again, and in this way, the old man Adam Harrison's mentality was also somewhat relieved.
"You may be seated. Zheng Fei said to him with a smile and poured two glasses of wine quite gracefully.
"You're more gentlemanly than I thought you were. The old man's slightly pale sideburns moved, took two steps forward, and sat opposite Zheng Fei.
"What do you want to talk about?" Zheng Fei snorted.
"Now it's not how I want to talk about it, it's how you want to talk about it. "The old man spread his hands, saying that there are all your people around, and I still have the right to choose.
"Then give me 100,000 soldiers, as I said before. ”
"I'm going to lose about two million silver coins, that's half of my assets, and it hurts me. The old man raised his eyebrows lightly, stretched out his hand reluctantly, and smiled sincerely at Zheng Fei: "You won." ”
"But your emotions are very stable and not excited at all, which makes me admire. Zheng Fei is also sincere, because judging from every demeanor and every demeanor, the old man should be an old and serious person.
Those eyes that looked at it were like black holes, and they seemed to be able to swallow everyone's mind. Except, Brad.
"You know, I was born in the Harrison family, well, I forgot how old I am...... But for sure, I've been through a lot, and I've survived countless difficult times. ”
Speaking of this, the old man raised his eyebrows, stared into Zheng Fei's eyes, and smiled lightly: "To be honest, in my heart, you are similar to a child, but you are different from ordinary children, I think your ...... How to put it, your thoughts are different from others, as if there is a certain profundity that reminds me of the great ancient Greek philosophers. ”
That's because you and I come from different eras.
Zheng Fei meditated in his heart and smiled: "Are you praising me?"
"No, I'm telling the truth. The old man smiled happily and picked up the wine glass in front of him: "If you change the time and scene, we may have a lot to talk about, I was very angry before you entered the door just now, but now the anger seems to have disappeared, after all, anger will only cause trouble, not solve the problem." ”
"The 100,000 soldiers?"
"I know that you will not let me go until the matter is settled, so I can only write a letter to my brother Francis, and tell him that not only have I failed to save his most important son, William, but have even taken myself in, so that he will definitely compromise, and it will only take half a month at most for you to go to the border to lead the 100,000 troops. ”
Zheng Fei snapped his fingers: "Santiago, bring a pen and paper." ”
Santiago ran to the tavern counter and ripped the ink quill along with the ledger.
The dim oil light made the old man's eyes a little uncomfortable, so he took out a pair of reading glasses with gold trim and calmly put them on.
Before lifting the pen, his brows frowned slightly, hesitated for a moment, and looked up at Zheng Fei.
"You're a smart guy, are you sure you want to do this?"
Zheng Fei shook his wine glass and acquiesced.
"I heard Brad say before that you want this army not for yourself, but for the lives of Romania, is it worth it?"
"It's not worth it, but if I rob something, I have to pay it back, and I must not cause a catastrophe because of my selfishness. Zheng Fei put down his glass and shrugged.
"I don't understand what you're saying, but I have to tell you that the Harrison family is the most powerful mercenary group on the European continent, and we claim that there are only tens of thousands of soldiers under its banner, but in fact it is far more than that, I think Brad has already told you this, right?"
Zheng Fei and Brad glanced at each other and nodded.
"Then you must have thought about how stupid it is to blackmail the Harrison family, I admire you, but even if I don't give any instructions, the other heads of the family will not let you go, and they will send special killers to find your traces all over the continent and kill you to maintain the prestige of the family. ”
There was a hint of coercion in the old man's tone, but it was not very obvious, and he cleverly turned the threat into something like: I am for your good.
The faint lighting, casting the shadows of several people on the wall, makes this tavern full of mystery.
Outside, a light rain fell on the streets, and the first spring rain in Constanta fell in the middle of the night.
After a short silence, Zheng Fei glanced at the Spartan warrior outside the window who was wet with rain and did not move, paused for two seconds, moved his gaze back to the old man's eyes full of kindness, and looked at each other for a moment, the corners of Zheng Fei's mouth curled, revealing an elusive smile.
The old man raised his eyebrows slightly in confusion, and the wine glass was in his hand, waiting quietly for him to speak.
"What if that is...... I'm not in Europe?"
"Oh, you're from the East, so you won't stay in Europe forever, but if you come back one day, you'll face the assassination of the Harrison family. Our liaison stations are all over the big and small towns in Europe, and all the family members will remember your face as soon as you enter the city......" The old man made a motion to wipe his neck, his expression numb.
The atmosphere was stagnant for a while.
At this time, in the silent street, a carriage with rolling wheels drove by, and looked curiously and frightenedly at the Spartan warriors standing on both sides, as well as the "rocket soldiers" they were carrying, so that they were so distracted that they almost hit the stone pier, and hurriedly drove away, not daring to stop for a moment.
The vignette made the atmosphere more lively, Zheng Fei rolled his eyes, and after a while, a smile reappeared at the corner of his mouth.
"But if you can kill me, I can kill you too. He whistled.
Brad understood, took a step forward, bent down to stare at the old man's eyes, and smiled: "Adam, I know where your family headquarters and each leader's residence are, even if you move, I will definitely be able to find out the new address, you have learned this." ”
This time, the old man's eyes were not as panicked as when he faced him before.
"But Brad, since you broke into my castle, the manor defenses of all the heads of the family have been raised several notches, and you will never be able to get in. (To be continued.) )
