Chapter XVI: Intimidation

Since they want to help, Wright and Cecilia start discussing the 'Magical Girl Peg Rescue Plan'

"Why don't we scrape together some gold!" Cecilia suggested with some hesitation, "One hundred thousand gold coins is actually not a lot, I can make up sixty or seventy thousand gold coins." "Well, Cecilia was actually going to borrow some gold coins in the first place.

"It's not too much." Wright frowned, "It would be nice to pay tens of thousands of gold coins to solve the matter, but I'm afraid that this gold coin will be useless!" ”

Cecilia: "It's useless to give him the gold?" Why? Cecilia looked confused at the moment.

"Look, that merchant made two requests, either let Senior Sister Peg marry him, or compensate 100,000 gold coins, right?"

"Uh-huh!"

"Which of these two demands do you think is his purpose?"

"Huh?"

"Let's put it this way, Cecilia, every year when we recruit students from the First Magic Academy of Puang, there will be a group of students who are very talented, but their families can't pay the tuition!"

"But there are almost no highly talented students who can't get in, do you know why?"

"At the same level, the status of a mage is much higher than that of a warrior! The students who can enter the No. 1 Magic Academy of Puang can all be regarded as geniuses among magicians! Even if the family has no money, some of them are financed by nobles and merchants. But funding requires a return! ”

"Most merchants and nobles demand nothing more than how many years of service they want. But there were also some aristocrats or merchants who wanted to go further. ”

"In fact, the best way, the closest identity, is nothing more than a marriage relationship, if it is a male magician, you can marry your daughter to him! If it is a female magical genius, it is better to marry her yourself or your descendants. In this relationship, male magicians actually take advantage of it, but female magicians suffer more, but then again, many men like this bite! So I guess that the rich businessman must have wanted to marry Peg, but in order not to push too hard, he deliberately gave another condition! Anyway, that rich businessman doesn't know your identity. Wait, Cecilia, why are you looking at me like that! ”

"My family didn't plan to invest in you, so don't think too much about it!"

This time it was Wright's turn to be confused, and after a few seconds, he tasted Cecilia's meaning, his face was a little strange, he was teased by Cecilia?

"Just kidding!" Cecilia's face turned slightly red, and she changed the subject, "Even Peg thinks I'm a sixth-level warrior, and that merchant doesn't know my identity!" I understand what you mean, if he knew who I was, it would be impossible to mention such a condition. Peg can't pay 100,000 gold coins, well, I can't pay either, but if I really want to save Peg, it's very easy to ask for it from my family! No, if he knew my identity, he wouldn't have dared to imprison Peg at all, let alone mention such excessive conditions! ”

"So the solution is very simple, salute first and then soldier, how much Peg stole something, compensate according to the price, if he has other ideas, directly intimidate him!"

Cecilia frowned slightly: "That's what I said, but I'm afraid, he doesn't know about our Baruch family at all!" Besides, I guess you don't want this place to scare him by the name of Grandpa Cromwell, and he hasn't even heard of it. Even if he heard it, he might not believe it! ”

Wright thought for a while: "It's okay, if he hasn't heard of your Baruch family and my teacher's name, it can only prove that his status is not high enough, let's find some low-status, more down-to-earth powerful people to scare him!" ”

"Think about it, well, my roommate Carl is a native of the imperial capital, maybe I know some such characters, I'll ask him!"

"It's really not good, let's call it 'parent', it will definitely solve this matter!"

"You say it." Cecilia rolled her eyes, this matter is not embarrassing, if it is suitable to ask the elders to help, why did she come to Wright.

Without further ado, Cecilia sent Cecilia back to Blackwater Street--- it is worth mentioning that the two little blue-eyed tiger mastiffs born half a year earlier than little Elek already had the strength of close to the fourth-level demonic beasts, and the little thorn-backed ironclad dragon was even slightly stronger! What's more important is that after the last auction, many forces in the imperial capital have been warned, and the slightly stronger forces all know that there is a little girl with two blue-eyed tiger mastiff babies who is a baby student of a certain holy demon master, whoever dares to do it, who will die!

Of course, some gangsters in the lower city are not among them, after all, they are a group of weak chickens that even the baby tiger mastiff may not be able to beat.

Meanwhile, Wright returns to the academy and finds Carl, who has just finished class, and discusses it with Carl, who is also amused by the incident.

"Wright, according to you, the matter is not tricky, and the first priority is to find out who the so-called merchant on the other side is. However, extorting 100,000 gold coins should not be considered a powerful person. ”

"As for intimidating, well, and pressuring that businessman, there is no need to find any big shots, that Peg senior sister was caught by someone purely by the handle, and we will put on the school uniform when we go back, and then call Burke and Nini, and pull a few more guards."

It was not difficult to find out the identity of the other party, and Wright made a trip to the Geer Chamber of Commerce and got the information about the merchant who blackmailed Peg.

This merchant's name is Sandy, and he is indeed not a big man, he is a merchant who sells fur food, and his net worth does not exceed 200,000 gold coins. 200,000 gold coins, said a lot less, if it is ready-made cash in hand, it is enough to call it a big businessman if you can take out 200,000 gold coins at any time, but all worth 200,000 gold coins can only be regarded as a medium-level businessman, after all, most of the net worth of these 200,000 gold coins is in the goods, followed by real estate and fleet and other materials, and the gold coins on hand are only one-tenth at most.

After Carl got the information, he judged very definitely that it would be enough for a few of them to come forward to put pressure on such a person.

After discussing the plan, the group called the guards and went to find the businessman named Sandy in a menacing manner. Of course, Cecilia is the only one who is really 'aggressive', after all, it is about her best friend, and the other people are more or less holding the idea of watching the fun. Carl, Burke, and Burke's girlfriend Niss, usually practice very hard, and they are all considered honor students in the No. 1 School of Magic in Puon, not to mention the cultivator Wright, and occasionally encounter something interesting to relax.

A few people are not afraid of making things bigger, Cecilia felt embarrassed about this matter, and she didn't even bring her own guards, but Carl and Niss were both born in the local powerful families of the imperial capital, and there were a total of ten guards, each of whom was a strong sixth-level warrior, with weapons and strong suits, looking quite imposing--- of course, it was just imposing, whether it was Wright and Cecilia, one person was sure to easily solve these ten guards.

The group of people broke into Sandy's grain store in the North District, of course, it was only a very small storefront, and it was opened by Sandy and others, after all, the prosperous area of the North District of the imperial capital is expensive, and even a small store is not something that a single medium businessman can afford.

However, Sandy himself was not in the grain store, and it didn't take much effort, and the stupid partner easily confessed where Sandy lived in the West End.

As Wright and the others approached the residence of the merchant Sandy, Cecilia suddenly had an angry look on her face. And then Wright's ears moved, some subtle sounds were captured, and there was a hint of crying and laughing on his face.

The accompanying guards, as well as Carl, Burke, and Ness, were confused.

"Well, Cecilia, let's go back!"

Cecilia stopped and gritted her teeth, "This slut! After saying that, he left without looking back.

Carl Burke & Ness & Guards: "What's the matter with these two people?" ”

Wright rolled his eyes and winked at Carl and Burke, "I'll be back and talk to you later." After saying that, he followed Cecilia over, and he instinctively felt that at this moment, he still felt that he still had to comfort this eldest lady who was hurt in his heart.

"Woo woo, I took her sister, she actually wanted to pit me!" Cecilia had a rare tear, which made Wright, who wanted to comfort her, a little helpless.

Such a comfort to a crying girl, Wright turned his brain wildly.

"Comfort her in your arms?" A voice came to mind.

Wright shuddered, if he did this, would he be blown off in the head with a fist.
