378 Be ye rain or shine

"Sending someone to assassinate me while our Children of Gold are fighting among themselves?" Roland asked with a smile.

The muscles on Little John's face twitched all at once, and he looked at Roland, his eyes gradually turning red, and his body trembled.

Finally he stood up angrily and threw the book in his hand on the table with all his strength.

There was a crunch on the ground.

After a few heavy breaths, the green tendons on Little John's neck were about to burst out, and his beard was all open, and he lowered his roar like a lion: "Roland, you have gone too far." I'm staying at home every day, and I don't even want to go out of the door, what else do you want me to do? As the city lord, I was forced to this by you, and you actually wronged me, are you satisfied if I die! ”

"I didn't want you to die." Roland smiled: "But now I suddenly feel that it is good for you to die." ”

Little John's hands trembled and his teeth creaked.

His anger, his grievances, seemed to be about to overflow.

Seeing his appearance of wanting to kill people violently, but he didn't dare, he had to suppress it desperately, and sneered: "Don't take everyone else for a fool." You want to provoke endless infighting among our Children of Gold so that your side has a chance to develop again. But you forgot one thing, you are smart, and others are not stupid. ”

"I didn't!" Little John finally couldn't help himself and roared angrily.

"This time I can act as if nothing happened, and you have to be glad you didn't hit my friends and relatives with your idea." Roland, who was leaning against the door, stood up straight, his eyes became cold: "But if there is another time, you will understand the consequences." ”

Scold!

Roland left a sneer and turned to leave.

The door closed again, and the room became dark again.

In the room, little John's cheek muscles twitched, making his expression distorted and ugly.

His expression also changed from anger and hatred to powerlessness.

Finally, he sat back in his chair, as if he had lost all his energy.

Roland came out of the castle and saw the lord's wife and his daughter still enjoying afternoon tea in the garden.

When the two saw Roland, they stood up again.

Roland walked over, stood in front of them and smiled, "Sorry to disturb you." ”

The two of them were still quite nervous when they looked at Roland, but the city lord's wife still smiled astringently and sent out an invitation: "Your Excellency Roland, how about having afternoon tea together?" ”

"Thank you." Roland refused: "I still have some things to deal with, and I will definitely chat with the two beautiful ladies next time I have the opportunity." ”

"That's a shame."

Roland confessed and left the garden.

The city lord's wife sat down again and breathed a sigh of relief: "I don't have that kind of vicious aura on my body, so I shouldn't be here to find trouble." ”

"Actually, he was very good to us, at least he didn't kill us, and he gave all the money he should have given." The youngest daughter of John's family still had a slight glint in her eyes: "And didn't he say last time that Old Ford was going to encroach on some of our family's remaining properties, and he was also stopped by his vice president?" He also said that rules are rules, and if you don't agree, you have to beat the magic tower down first. ”

The city lord's wife was silent for a while, and said, "But I'm afraid that your eldest brother will mess around!" After all, he is the lord of the city, and men are different from us women, so they will not accept their fate casually. ”

The youngest daughter let out a long sigh: "I hope the eldest brother won't mess around." Even their father can't fight them, and the eldest brother can't. ”

Roland, who was walking down the street, didn't know about it.

In fact, he was a little empty just now, facing a widow of his own making, and the daughter of the deceased, the emotions in his heart were not as calm as they appeared on the surface.

In his imagination, these two women should be like little John, hating themselves very much.

But he didn't know that the family affection of Little John's family was really weak, and more than a year of superior and peaceful life had wiped out a lot of hatred between the two women.

Above all, Roland holds the power.

Roland walked and observed the street.

The city is a lot cleaner than it was a year ago.

Ever since Roland, Hawke, and others took over most of the city's power, there has been some limited governance work. For example, build sewers, build public toilets, and spread the word that disease comes from the mouth.

It's not too good, but at least it's effective, and the whole city isn't so dirty.

In addition, after tearing his face with the Silverwing Guild, the position of sheriff also fell into the hands of the Magic Tower, and Vincent took over the position.

Vincent has a relatively straight personality, although he usually thinks that the position of sheriff is a waste of his time to learn and exercise magic, but in fact he has never been derelict in his duties, in the past year, there are three little nobles who have his heads cut off because of his misdeeds, and as for the abduction and robbery, he broke his hands and legs, and put them in a cell, if not a thousand, but at least eight hundred.

The city as a whole is much better.

This has greatly increased the sense of security of civilians.

A sense of security cannot be seen or touched, but it is real.

Pedestrians on the street have noticeably more smiles on their faces.

Roland came to the Black Sand Gang station and walked straight in.

A few younger brothers were frightened enough to see him, so they ran upstairs and invited Gru down.

"Your Excellency Roland, long time no see." Gru was very embarrassed to see Roland, because of the reason why they were on the wrong side last time, and now the entire Black Sand Gang is not treated well by the Magic Tower, but because the Magic Tower has not announced that it will 'give up' them, they have survived in a daze until now.

It's just that because of Sheriff Vincent's activity, the life of the Black Sand Gang is not very easy now.

Roland looked around, his eyes fell on Gru, and said, "I'm going to hold a banquet in the square in front of the magic tower tonight, and you can help me inform all the famous people outside the city lord's mansion, whether it's nobles, scholars, big businessmen, or gang bosses, or even merchants who live here temporarily." ”

"Tell them that I hope they have all come in the evening if there is no urgent business."

"Rain or shine!"

Looking at the calm expression, and listening to the last word, Gru nodded again and again.

At the same time, he swallowed his saliva.

He had a feeling that something big was about to happen.

Roland then returns to the Tower of Magic and asks everyone to prepare the food and drinks for the dinner.

Andonara was a little puzzled: "When you come back from your study tour, it should be the local nobles and squires who jointly organize a dinner party and celebrate it for me, how did it become that you invited them." ”

"Because I'm a Hongmen feast."

With a linguistic translator, Andonara understood the meaning of the Hung Gate Feast.

Her eyes immediately brightened: "Going to kill?" Okay, I'll go and sharpen my sword, and when the time comes, I'll cut whoever you tell me to take. ”

At this time, Christine also came over, and the girl's face asked expectantly: "Master, if there is a noble girl who wants to be killed, can you not kill it first, and let me secretly suck blood?" ”

"No way!"

Roland rejected her categorically.

Christina pursed her lips, she was almost ready to put on the oil bottle.
