Chapter 54: Action
"Big... My lord, I... Can I take it too? ”
A waiter who came out of nowhere came up to Ling Qi and whispered, breaking the eerie silence of the scene and trying to be the first to eat the crab. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
The mess on the ground, the messy footsteps upstairs, and the noise outside the house all showed that the good life he had promised to bring was still to be tested, and only the gold and silver on the ground were real.
"Hahaha, of course."
"As long as you work hard for me in the future, you will be paid five, ten, and twenty times as much as in the past!"
"Everybody's like that!"
Ling Qi said, looking around, like a king scanning his courtiers, and like a hungry wolf picking prey.
In order to enhance his persuasive power, he slowly flipped his hand and spilled a large number of gems as if by magic, and they fell everywhere with a ding-dong dong.
This time, more people were in an uproar.
"Damn! Done! Instead of following that idiot who can't eat and cloak Bowles, it's better to follow Master Lynch to eat and drink spicy! ”
A small soldier leader gritted his teeth and said, he didn't look like he had met the master, but as if he had been on the execution ground.
The man turned to look at the other buddies who were about to move, and exclaimed:
"What are you still hesitating about, the little Nitin brothers have told me that when Lord Lynch becomes the new mayor, everyone will get a salary of eighty silver coins every month, which is enough for you to feed a litter of cubs, and a good warrior can get more."
He slapped his not-so-strong chest, as if to indicate that this was the standard of so-called excellence.
His words immediately resonated with more people, vested interests may be just an inspirational trick, but the long-term rewards are worth the lives of a steady person, so what politicians love to do is to draw a delicious pie after giving a small profit.
Benn, who was born as a coolie, ran in front of Ling Qi in a few steps, and without hesitation, bent down and picked up a large handful of gold coins.
"My lord, I hope you will do what you say."
"When I go out later, I will do my best to calm the mood of the workers."
Benn's words were unpretentious, and he seemed to know very well what was most needed for a successful new superior after an unexpected rebellion, and that was stable order.
Maybe he or some people behind him have already had similar thoughts, but they just don't have the guts.
He still far underestimated Ling Qi's methods, that guy who proclaimed himself the lord of the land of honey wine, since he dared to act in a hurry, he was not afraid of any accidents and challenges!
Although the manpower of Changhu Town is important, what is more important is the base itself.
"Very well, in the near future, ordinary workers will be able to live better than the nobles you have seen before."
Ling Qi played the package ticket, Ben En shook his head, probably not expecting to have that kind of life.
He clenched the gold coin in his hand, thinking that it would be able to add a few new clothes to his wife and children at home. The only thing he hoped for was that the new lord would no longer be like the old one, thinking about raising taxes all day long.
Some people start, and more and more people follow the trend.
Even the attendants and servants who had been watching from upstairs and had been ordered by Nitin not to make noise also went downstairs one after another and joined the ranks of showing their loyalty, and the leaders were actually the little maids who had served Ling Qi in the middle of the night last night, and they even made some "positive" propaganda for someone.
Charm is really a good thing, charm, as long as you put aside some unnecessary constraints, you can always get more enjoyment at the same time, and get twice the result with half the effort.
As for responsibility and integrity...
Ling Qi used to take those things very seriously, but when he came into contact with the wider world and took a longer view, some narrow things naturally didn't need to exist.
"My lord, I just want to ask, do you really govern this place as your domain and fulfill the obligations of a lord? You know, after all, you already own a rich territory, and the town of Long Lake..."
The beautiful woman who came to Ling Qi asked questions that no one else had ever asked, and perhaps never thought of.
A smart person would not doubt whether Ling Qi was capable of managing Changhu Town well, only doubting that such a dilapidated place was worth what he should do.
Kindness?
Some looked up, while others remained staring at the gold and silver jewels scattered in their hands or on the ground.
"Of course, I will definitely consider this place my own territory, and I will see you all as my people."
"Actually, you don't have to worry about me having a rich land of honey wine, and I will easily abandon Changhu Town."
"Long Lake is your home and an important territory to me, especially after I have reached a trade agreement with the two Elven Kings."
Ling Qi used the false benefits he could get to deceive the residents of Changhu Town, and sometimes asked others to believe in himself, not just blindly mentioning the payment and not asking for returns, but also to properly let them see the "profitable" side of themselves, so that it was more reasonable.
"Believe me, after this, the prosperity of the land of honey wine will soon radiate to the town of Long Lake, and you will soon feel the new changes in the town."
Ling Qi's eyes stared at the woman sincerely, making her blush slightly.
"Of course, as a lord of two places, I can't stay in Changhu Town forever. When I have something to leave, I will elect some representatives for you in advance, and they will lead you. ”
Ling Qi changed his words and dropped another piece of cake.
"As for the candidates for the deputies... Mr. Benn, and this ... Ms. Lilith? ”
Ling Qi asked uncertainly, and when he saw the beautiful woman nodding, he continued:
"I think you're more than capable of doing it."
Benn was flattered by his words, and the others looked at them with envy, but Lilith only smiled.
She leaned over and picked up a scattered red gem, deliberately letting Ling Qi see the spring light on her chest.
Ling Qi turned a blind eye to this, and even though he was already very open in this regard, he still preferred the tender and delicious little apples.
Just as he had finished pacifying the people in the house, the quarrel outside the house had finally disappeared into a neat pace, and it seemed that his previous deterrence had lost its effect.
After all, the number of people he brought is still too few, if more than doubled, maybe he can even save his tongue!
"Bang bang bang!"
The rough knock on the door was accompanied by rude shouting, and there was not much gold and silver left on the ground, and the people who had taken the benefits began to weaken again, especially those soldiers, who had sworn to follow Ling Qi just now, but now their eyes flickered.
Ling Qi glanced at Farion, and the captain of the guard immediately walked towards the gate with a bloody long knife.
Nitin also noticed the inappropriateness of several soldiers, and pulled out the elven sword with a cold snort.
His skills are far inferior to Farryn, and even if he has improved significantly recently, he is only in the middle of the crowd of guards, but it is definitely not a problem to deal with two or three miscellaneous soldiers.
Besides, he's the only one of the three who still wears elven gear. Not only is it beautiful and lightweight, but its defense power is as much as a full set of iron armor!
Nitin's quick reaction made the two and five boys embarrassed again, but the beautiful woman Shanshan came to Ling Qi's side and asked in a low voice:
"My lord, do you need me to deal with it?"
Ling Qi smiled, pinched her ass, and shook her head in refusal.
"There are always some people who will die only after facing the cruel reality!"
As he said this, the iron-clad wooden bolt that bolted the door suddenly popped up automatically.
With a bang, several soldiers who were banging on the door fell in with their heads covered, and before they could see the scene inside the house, Farion, who was walking away, had already raised his knife in his hand!
The light of the sword, the splashing of blood, and the one-sided slaughter were a terrible blow to the enemy's will.
The people in the house, who had pretended to be calm, finally panicked completely, and more people began to scream, this time they didn't have to pay the price.
When the tiger swept into the flock of Farion out of the city lord's mansion, more hatred prompted some of the otherwise neutral people to join the senseless scuffle, but the wise people hid in a corner at this time, waiting for the situation to clear.
The metal sharp weapons flying in the air were unguardable, and the arrogant and laughing Ling Qi was more terrifying than the devil.
If Farion is the devil that the Resisters have never seen before, then Ling Qi is the legendary Demon King and the Grim Reaper!
Just when the two started a killing feast centered on the mayor's mansion, the drama on the other side had already been grandly staged.
The clerk who went to Bud's house to demand that he hand over his hidden bow and hinted that he would sacrifice his daughter for profanity was thrown out of the docks by the angry man.
The Bard family is located in the west of the town, built on the lake, in fact, most of the town is like Venice, a water city.
Therefore, this guy, who barely made it to the hero list with his superb bow skills, can completely deal with more than ten soldiers on his own by taking advantage of his geographical advantages.
The clerk had underestimated Bard's abilities, which had disgraced him, and the few guards he had been preparing to bully had become reservoir dogs, and they wouldn't stop there.
The alarm bells sounded one after another, so that some of the soldiers patrolling the town did not know whether to go left or right, but the gatekeeper did not have such troubles, and everything was fine as soon as the gate fell.
Bard's petty fights and Ling Qi's bloody methods are not at all the same level, the former doesn't want to make a big deal and just wants justice, while the latter goes straight to the highest seat.
Laugh at!
Stabbed to death the last resister in sight, and with a group of shivering bear soldiers, Farion was satisfied that no one dared to raise his weapon against him again.
"A bunch of rubbish! Give me a little bit of energy! Take out your strength to play with women! Do you think adults would want to see their new subordinates as you bunch of trash? ”
The captain of the guard sternly reprimanded the soldiers behind him, some of whom were killed and were afraid of kneeling down and begging for mercy and surrendered, and some of them had become friends with the foreign fighters last night, and they showed signs of defection in advance.
Of course, their combat effectiveness is just as worrying.
Farion, who had not drunk blood, had a somewhat violent temper, which was the inevitable result of the erosion of the dark divine power, and he was eager to kill all the living things he could see. It's a pity that those who resisted just now were demoralized, and they were quickly beaten and lost their fighting spirit.
"Humph! A bunch of rubbish! Rubbish! ”
"Donk, you and Donnie take ten men and start searching me from the east side of this street, and kill all those who wander outside, those with hideous faces and weapons!"
"Merry, you take five men to guard the arsenal, I don't want to wait until the afternoon to see the untouchables in the streets with bows and crossbows."
"And a few of you, follow me to the other side."
"It seems that there is more than one person who wants to take advantage of the adult's troubled waters to fish, Changhu Town is already the territory of the adult, and no one will be allowed to be presumptuous here!"
Methodically arranging the tasks of his subordinates, Farion tried his best to find an excuse to continue killing, and finally he thought of a big goal worth a feast, and immediately laughed!
