Chapter 589: The Lord Summons
The small town merchant Brand's face was full of discomfort, it was as if his stomach was turning over the river, and he really wanted to leave here immediately, rush into a certain place and pour out his stomach full of discomfort, but after all, such a thing was just thinking about it in his heart, and he really couldn't do it.
Now the situation is unbearable, I think he can ignore the existence of the other party at the beginning, only a little trick is enough to make the other party anxious, but now the situation is completely reversed, his dignified town's premier businessman Brand, now has to look at the other party's face to act, what kind of thing is this? The hairless phoenix is not as good as a chicken, and the small town businessman Brande has to admit this in his heart, there is really no way.
But there will be a day, there will be a day...... The heart of the small town merchant Brande shouted like this, but he himself knew that there must be no day, from the ability of both sides to the age, he was undoubtedly at an absolute disadvantage, since then, the gap between the two sides will only get bigger and bigger, unless it is a miracle, the small town merchant Brande does not have any illusions, and the last thing the small town merchant Brande will not believe in is a miracle!
There will never be any miracles in this world, from the day when the small-town businessman Brande started to start from scratch, he knew quite well that all achievements were the result of his own efforts, relying on his own hands and efforts, this is the real reality.
Miracles are just things that the upper class people make up for the people at the bottom to use for fantasy, to place hope in their hearts, and it is because of this little hope that the people at the bottom can be content with the status quo and will not rebel against their rule.
What does this look like in practice?
The real reality is definitely more brutal than anyone can imagine.
And Brand, the merchant of the town, is the one who fully understands this cruel reality, so he does not have the slightest illusion, and of course the reason why he is today has nothing to do with that miracle.
"I don't even have a place to sit, what kind of welcome is this, do you want to tire me to death?" Brand, a small town businessman, stiffened his neck and shouted, even if it was a world of difference from the other party, but he still wouldn't admit defeat on face, at least for now, after all, although there was a gap now, the gap had not yet reached the point where he didn't even have the courage to say such a thing.
Brand, a small town merchant, complained as much as he could, which could be regarded as venting his anger and dissatisfaction.
The middle-aged man behind the "boss ......" is naturally the military Kenny, and he played a great role in the previous cooperation, of course, this is the biggest reason why he and the small town merchant Brande will appear here at this time, but it is precisely because of this that the small town merchant Brande is more and more angry, and he is even unaware, oh! In fact, he knows a little bit of the situation, but the situation has been deleted and completely changed, as for the real situation, it is ...... The small-town businessman Brande was deceived, and he was the person he believed in the most, of course, in fact, the other party was also thinking about him in the end, not really betraying him, so the small-town businessman Brande also forgave him, but the uncomfortable feeling was strongly filled in his heart, making him feel extremely uncomfortable, which was even more uncomfortable than he suffered some irreparable major loss in business.
Speaking of business losses or something, even if the small-town businessman Brande is uncomfortable, it won't seem to be as distressed as it is now, it's just some money, but it's something outside the body, as long as this person is still there, the small-town businessman Brande can make a comeback, of course, the premise is that the military Kenny is with him, but this time......
Brand, a small-town merchant, was really scared, he didn't expect that Military Kenny would do something to cooperate with someone without telling him, although in the end it was for his own sake, but it felt quite ...... Quite ...... Tickle!
Brand, a small-town merchant, was full of discomfort, but he couldn't vent it on the military Kenny, and now the only channel was naturally the female king on the throne in front of him.
Anyway, she won't do anything about herself, the small town businessman Brande has a very accurate view of this, so at this time he is naturally unscrupulous, saying that he really doesn't know if there will be such a chance in the future, and slowly he may not even have the identity and status to stand in front of the other party to speak, and if he doesn't take the opportunity to say everything he should say now, do you have to wait for the future?
Brand, a small-town merchant, didn't want to, so even if the military Kenny persuaded him, he didn't care at all, he just let his temperament do it, and he became more and more energetic.
"Haha, that seat looks good, you've been sitting for a long time, come down and let me sit for a while, right?" Brand, a merchant in the small town, directly aimed at the seat where the lord was, and made such a request without concealment, and as soon as this sentence came out, it naturally attracted the angry eyes of everyone in the council hall, as well as the somewhat helpless gaze of the military Kenny.
"Brand, you guy is too presumptuous!" the people shouted loudly, as if they were the retainers of the real lord, oh! In fact, as the days of following the lord and the daily life gradually became retro, the people present really had the illusion that they were really the lord's retainers.
It is easy to play a couple of men and women who have a certain affection for each other, and sublimate into feelings, as for the daily life of completely following the ancient etiquette and rules, then people will gradually have a certain emotion of becoming a retainer It is natural that these people are not ordinary people, and it is difficult for people in Eastern countries to have such emotions, after all, those people are passers-by after some kind of big movement, and people who have experienced that era will naturally have a rebellious psychology and emotions for the relationship between monarchs and ministersAnd it's also unusually sensitive to such a relationship.,Once discovered, it will immediately produce disgust and even struggle.。
Of course, if it is a lighthouse country in a certain world, the same situation is the same.
But then there is a lot of soil and season that is really easy to breed such emotions, everything is so just right, the old ideas are still popular, the new ideas are not fully formed, once there are enough conditions, the original seeds will immediately sprout and grow, then the current situation has been formed.
And the longer such a situation is formed, the greater the level of impact, but the more powerful it becomes, and the power of infection is constantly strengthened, as if it is some kind of brainwashing.
In other words, people now only think that they should be the lord's retainers, and after a while, they really think that they are retainers, and finally this idea continues to strengthen, maybe they can dedicate themselves to the lord, risking their lives, and then one day, when the time is ripe, the lord will rise up, maybe they can declare independence and become a country of their own.
Of course, such things are not uncommon in the history of the Western continent, and even in modern times, there is no shortage of successes, although the place occupied is just some remote barren land, but this is really a possible thing, if there is considerable military strength, and the support of the international community, there is really nothing impossible.
Since ancient times, the Western continent has been divided and merged, large countries and small countries have been constantly separated and merged, and have never been truly unified, this is not like a certain eastern power, since the formation of the concept of great unification, each generation of rulers have attached great importance to this, and the big countries must be unified.
As for the Western continent, there is no such thing at all.
A big country has the good of a big country, and a small country has the beauty of a small country, not to mention that the high-level leaders of various countries are often related to each other, so one day I will inherit your country, and one day I have no heirs, you can also inherit my country, such a situation, why force unification?
Not only is it unnecessary, but it's also something that can't be done at all.
Of course, a large eastern country has such a tradition, and the civil war is better than the outside, but there is really no such thing in the Western Continent, even if it is fought, after winning, it is just a land reparation, you are still your king, you have to engage in some kind of unification and the like, it is really unprecedented since ancient times.
Therefore, it is said that the lord is interested in becoming independent one day, and with such prerequisites, coupled with some hard work, he may really be able to become the founding queen.
Of course, the current lord, her only mind is to do a good job in the town's economy first.
Therefore, she needs the power of the small-town merchant Brand, but this person seems to need to be polished first, otherwise it will not be easy to use.
At this moment, the lord stretched out his hand gently, but for a moment, the people who were scolding the small town merchant Brande for the lord immediately stopped their words, and at the same time, the small town merchant Brande also closed his mouth very nervously, but his eyes widened, and he looked at the lord very carefully, saying that he was still afraid in his heart after all, but he pretended to be fearless on the surface, but once the lord became serious, he immediately revealed his true form.
"That's what you really think, so come and sit down?" the lord said, his words unusually cold, as if they were eternal ice and snow on the Arctic ice field.
The current scene is as if a ruthless emperor is asking if his ambitious prince is trying to replace him, of course, the result is naturally extremely unfavorable to the prince, and even extremely miserable, of course, the small town merchant Brande does not even have the identity of the prince, and is barely a prince with a little strength, and in this way, the prince's fate may only be a lifetime of solitary confinement, so what about the prince?
"Count...... Forget it, it must not be very comfortable when you look cold, I don't want it!" said Brand, a small town merchant, very stiffly, obviously at this time he would have knelt down and begged for mercy or something, but when the words reached his throat, he couldn't help but change.
"It's very cold, indeed!" the lord said, just these few words, and he didn't continue to say them, but the words seemed to be related to some other literal meaning.
"Huhu ......" The small town businessman Brande subconsciously wiped the sweat on his forehead, but immediately felt that his actions were too cowardly, so he hurriedly stopped his movements, and tried to do it naturally, but it seemed that it was difficult to become natural in what he did, which was too embarrassing for him, frankly speaking, since he came to this council hall, the small town businessman Brande was nervous, and he couldn't relax at all.
The next small town merchant Brande also stopped mentioning anything like a seat, and this matter seemed to have been forgotten by the lord, including the lord's loyal retainers.
Brand, a merchant in the small town, took two steps forward, and stood in front of the lord as if he was a diplomatic envoy, his expression was a little distorted, very uncomfortable, but in his heart he was trying to organize his words, in fact, he just wanted to leave here as quickly as possible, this place that made him super uncomfortable, especially the root of the real discomfort in front of him, lord!
"According to your orders, I came here obediently, so if there is anything to be ordered, just say it!" Brand, a merchant in the small town, looked like he was abandoning himself, and understood that it was completely unfeasible to resist the lord, and he seemed to simply lower his position, but there was still a bit of resistance and complaints in these words, of course, this is also an inevitable thing, after all, he didn't want to come at all, but he really couldn't resist.
Not to mention the growing influence of the lord, it was just the persuasion of the military advisor Kenny, which he couldn't refuse.
Of course, Brand, a small-town businessman, is a person who understands current affairs, otherwise he would not have come to this day by just letting his temperament come to this day, with today's status and career.
"Take it easy, Brand, you're not my retainer!" said the lord, condescendingly, and the words in her mouth were very peaceful, but in fact she was really superior.
The corners of Brand's mouth, a small town merchant, couldn't help twitching a little, and he muttered secretly in his heart, slandering the lord's words, he felt more and more uncomfortable, and almost wanted to vomit.
