Chapter 51: Different People

After the banquet, the guests dispersed, and the whispers of the mayor and staff officers were put aside for the time being, Ling Qi returned to the guest room, quietly waiting for someone to arrive. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Ling Qi likes loyal people, and no one doesn't like loyal people. He also likes greedy villains, villains are also people, people are not expensive or cheap, just look at how to use them.

A number of generous shots may cause some trouble, but the corresponding benefits are certainly not unlimited.

After a short period of contact, Ling Qi had already discovered some interesting phenomena, the lord of Changhu Town seemed to be mediocre, but he actually had his own little abacus, and his greed was even worse than that of the clerk under his command.

And the seemingly insidious and cunning clerk is actually the easiest to see through, as long as his fist is big enough and the money is enough, he can be easily fed.

As for the most incomprehensible thing in this town, it was a man who sat at the end of the banquet, dressed like an ordinary boatman, but his strength was definitely not weaker than Sorin, and the sense of threat brought to Ling Qi was even greater!

This is very unusual, with that person's strength, there is no need to be so down-and-out, you can make a fortune as a robber. And such a down-and-out guy should not be qualified to participate in the lord's banquet, which can only show that this person's identity is somewhat special!

It's a pity that this guy is gloomy and deep, and obviously not easy to get along with. Moreover, he was quite disgusted by the extravagant arrangements of the banquet, such a person did not say that he regarded money as dung, and he definitely could not buy his allegiance with money.

On the surface, this person is respectful to the lord, but in fact, he doesn't have a good face for all the well-dressed people, including Ling Qi!

Hate the rich? Or something else--

Ling Qi hadn't paid too much attention to this hidden master called Bard, he was very confident in himself, and now he only needed a few rounds to get rid of this kind of guy who barely made it to the hero list.

It wasn't until he learned about the history of this man's family that he did...

The small room, located on the top floor of the wooden attic, is gorgeously furnished, with a golden blanket, a full bed of ayara, and a nice view from the window.

On the only coffee table was a sterling silver candlestick, in which the amber blubber held up a flame the size of a grain of rice, white and bright, illuminating the whole room with silver frost, crackling and releasing the unique aroma of lipids.

"Bang bang bang!"

A few inaudible knocks on the door made Ling Qi, who had not yet slept, smile.

He opened the door, and sure enough, it was the lewd fellow, bent over with a flattering smile, sneaking in.

"How's it going, do you have an eyebrow on what I asked you to check?"

Ling Qi sat on the mahogany round stool, his legs crossed, looking high.

The official No. 2 person in Changhu Town, who can almost cover the sky with one hand here, nodded like a lackey.

As Ling Qi gestured to the empty glass on the table with his eyes, Xintelai obediently took out a bottle of red wine from the cabinet next to him and poured it for him.

If he faced the mayor of Changhu Town, Xin Telai still had a little disobedience and disrespectful thoughts. But in the face of Ling Qi, he didn't dare to have the slightest thought. This is the suppression brought about by absolute authority and strength!

Bubbling -

As the bright red liquid entered the transparent glass, the room was covered with a layer of wine in addition to the fat aroma, and even Sintelai couldn't help but sniff and enjoy it.

Ling Qi took the wine glass handed by the clerk with one hand and shook it, slightly disdainful. He didn't taste it either, but took the cup to his nose and sniffed it, then set it aside.

"Heh~ This kind of goods, in my territory, can only be regarded as third-class at most. ”

When Xinte came to hear this, he was immediately extremely embarrassed, this was already a top-level enjoyment in Changhu Town.

He was a little slanderous, but he didn't dare to show it, so he had to divert the topic:

"Ahem, my lord, I have already found out what you asked me to check. ”

"What you're interested in... Bard has a purple-shirted bow hidden in his house, which I heard is an ancestral heirloom... It's a very good bow. ”

"Of course, it is said to be an ancestral heirloom, that is, the origin is not clear..."

"For contraband of unknown origin like this, the villain thinks that only the adults and the warriors you brought are qualified to keep them. ”

Listening to the villain's words, Ling Qi was not disgusted at all, but was very useful, like a spring breeze. This made the scumbag snickering in the hearts of the despicable villains.

Weapons or something, Xintelai actually has no interest, no matter how good the weapon is, it is worth a few dollars, and it is not easy to find a good buyer. But this kind of thing is not only Ling Qi understands!

If you want to hug your thighs, of course you have to shoot your ass well, this is the way of being an official.

He still vividly remembers that during the evening banquet, the lord offered to have the local captain of the city guard, the brave Patton, challenge the warriors brought by the guests, probably in order to regain a little confidence in front of the high rollers.

As a result, the other party came out casually and brought down Barton with three punches and two kicks.

Even Bud, who was usually invincible, was dumbfounded at the time.

This made Xintelai realize that Changhu Town was no longer the Changhu City it used to be, and it was not easy to fish for oil and water in this broken place, and it was not a place to stay for a long time at all.

In the past, there was no way, and once there was a better choice, who would want to be neighbors with the dragon every day, facing a group of poor ghosts who couldn't even eat?

The lord of the land of honey wine is rich and powerful, with hard fists and generous shots, which is simply an ideal big thick leg!

Only a fool would listen to the mayor's small actions in secret, and Sintelai just wanted to bow down.

This villain is not very proficient in government affairs, but he is quite concerned about the strange and strange things that happen on the mainland.

The newly rising land of honey wine, the others in Changhu Town must not have heard of it, how could he not know!

Backed by the wealthy Shire, facing the vast sales of the whole West, there are gold, silver and jewelry everywhere!

This is the most stark contrast to the dirty and dilapidated town of Long Lake!

How stupid would a person do that to give up the long-term future for the sake of the immediate profit?

If it weren't for the reluctance to grovel to the authority that he had earned over the years, and the way back had not yet been secured, Sintelai would probably have to resign to the lord directly.

Fortunately, it seems that his rights are not completely useless, and the masters of the rich land are not all in vain for the poor ghosts.

This is good.

He knows very well that if you want others to value yourself, the most important thing is to reflect your own value, and the most meaningless thing is the so-called dignity and pride.

Groveling will indeed not reduce the value of this person in Ling Qi's heart, of course, his performance will not impress Ling Qi, similar to the lackey when he is in power, he has already seen a lot, and he is willing to work for him for his drive, definitely more than he needs.

Those who tend to be inflammatory, don't have to worry too much, not to mention that for Ling Qi, even loyal people won't be too worried. After all, when it really comes to a critical time, he is the only one who is really reliable and needs to be considered.

At a critical juncture, gentlemen and heroes will use words like abandoning the car to cover up their shame, let alone him.

Ling Qi's noncommittality probably made the clerk think that the answer he gave was not satisfactory to someone, but there were so many things in this poor place, where could there be a high-quality weapon worth collecting? Even whether the Yew Giant Bow handed down by the Bard family could enter the eyes of other people, Xin Te Lai was not very sure, but it was just a salary from the bottom of the kettle.

"Ahem, in addition, the two daughters of the Bard family are both well-known beauties..."

"Hehe, the villain thinks that since this Bard dares to hide contraband, he must be severely punished. However, considering his contributions to Changhu Town over the years, his family is also qualified to defend him, and I believe that the adults will definitely be willing to make decisions for them. Hehe, this is also a chance to mend the bastard. ”

Women, beautiful women, are usually hobbies shared by men in addition to special interests, especially young normal men.

The clerk doesn't know how much he has seen of this kind of adulterous * wife and daughter, and at this time it is the first thing to say.

Ling Qi was stunned by Sinterai's lewd laughter, but instead of rejecting this man's new offer, he nodded thoughtfully.

"Very well, then, this matter will be left to you. Remember, I don't like to force people, but if you encounter someone who doesn't know how to lift... Usually I don't mind my people using special means. ”

Ling Qi said lightly, as if he was hinting at something.

Xin Telai was flattered, and reluctantly refused Ling Qixin's reward.

From his wandering eyes, it is not difficult to guess that he is still very keen on wealth. Of course, now that he has a more important goal, the cute gold coin king can only be thrown aside.

As for the other prices he is about to pay in order to get what he wants, the fame that he values least is not as good as a copper in his heart.

Seeing the clerk leave, Ling Qi never mentioned the local mayor's attitude towards this matter, although it should be the same as them.

After all, this is just a small town, and the garrison is extremely weak, if he has a heart, relying on the * person he brought, it is easy to slaughter this place.

The reason why Sint came to such a guy to run errands was because he had to play intrigues and tricks, and Ling Qi regretted the reputation that real villains didn't care about the most!

Now, in this world, he prefers to be a hypocrite, with a sanctimonious appearance and a hidden arrow behind his back.

"Fame, that's a good thing. ”

Ling Qi pushed open the window, blew the night breeze, looked at the hustle and bustle of the town, listened to the shouts of passers-by, and felt the more stable layer outside the soul, most of which was not the power of faith, some invisible power, which was the blessing and expectation of the residents of the land of honey wine!

That's responsibility, it's trust, and it's a huge umbrella.

The night in Long Lake is not very beautiful, and the pungent smell of tobacco can be smelled everywhere.

Obviously, when it was time to rest the night, the laborers who had been busy all day were reluctant to have a little leisure, and insisted on squeezing out time in their busy days to satisfy their poor sense of existence.

They drank heavily, they fought, they found cheap prostitutes in taverns, forgot for a moment about the yellow-faced women who were waiting at home, and tried to regain their lost self-confidence from those who were more pitiful.

These are the main inhabitants of Long Lake, who have a natural hatred for words like taxes, and yearn for freedom and wealth, but don't know how to pursue them. So they are poor, so they are easily agitated and more easily lost in the beautiful fantasies that others have concocted.

What they need is not a room full of gold, but someone who can "see" them.

Bard, burdened with the mission of the family, once gave him only humiliation and shame from the glory that had given him.

He practiced martial arts hard and practiced archery desperately, believing that his strength surpassed that of any of his ancestors, but that could not change his situation.

His family's reputation is so bad that it is simply a disgrace and a sinner in Long Lake City.

No matter how powerful he is, he can only provoke more jealousy and hatred, especially those who do not want him to take away his power.

Bud is a smart man, he is willing to accept the status quo on the surface, but instead of slumping, he began to practice archery harder, while waiting for the impossible and undesirable opportunity, while enveloping the hearts of the people at the bottom.

The dragon's return will be his only chance to be ashamed, but he really doesn't want to see the scene of life, and winning people's hearts will smoothly become the focus of his efforts.

His little tricks can't even be hidden from the mayor of Changhu and the obscene clerk, so naturally don't talk about other people with intentions, such as those brought by Ling Qi.

While Ling Qi was enjoying another good idea of the mayor after the secretary in the warm fragrance of the warm pavilion, his subordinates were busy in the wet and cold night breeze.
