Frontier Prince's Territory, Fetamburg, Back Gate.

Matthew Halifax has been the lord of the city here for decades, and he has dealt with all kinds of ghosts, but it is the first time he has negotiated with the green skins, and he is not even sure whether the other party can understand the lingua franca of the mainland, so he stayed for a long time and didn't think about how to speak.

As a result, it was the stone that broke the silence first, and he didn't have time to spend here, so he took the initiative to say:

"I'm the boss of these greenskins, the stone of the Broken Claw Tribe, and you're the lord of Fetanburg?"

Pretend to be the must-have trait "Tongue Lotus" activated!

When he spoke the continental lingua franca fluently, the eyes of the few human shrimps on the other side immediately changed.

Speaks much better than another green-skinned shaman, with only a few accents that are a little strange, and the rest is completely human-like.

Matthew, in particular, was not in the eyes of his two subordinates in disbelief, and his face was more serious.

"That's right, I'm the lord of Fetanburg, Matthew Hafrakles, you're ......"

Before he could finish speaking, the stone rudely interrupted the other and said in a vicious voice:

"Okay, don't be verbose, I just came to see you to say that my boys have done what we have to do, and next, you have to do what you have to do!"

"You green mushroom, you dare to talk to the city lord like this!"

Seeing that this greenskin was so impolite, the human mage standing on the side stepped forward and reprimanded loudly.

As soon as he said this, the old rotten tooth next to him was not to be outdone, and slammed the staff in his hand to the ground, and it was about to explode.

"Egrim!"

Fortunately, Matthew was still very calm, and immediately stopped him, and at the same time gave Rip on the side a look and asked him to come out to play the round.

"Lord Castle, Lord Egrem! These greenskins don't know etiquette, don't mind, stone, pay attention to your tone, and your men, what the lord in the north tells you! ”

Rep had already discussed with his lord that he would continue to mix in Fetanburg in the future, so he deliberately pretended not to deal with the stones, so as to confuse these human shrimps.

"Blackheart, don't talk to me, hurry up, bring the agreement and the promised goods."

The agreement that the stone said was naturally the terms negotiated before, the two sides signed a trade agreement, and Fetanburg had to take out 20% of the income every year, which was exchanged for goods by Rep, and then handed over to the stone, so that he could send it to the non-existent human force in the north.

Since agreeing to Rep's terms, Matthew has signed this humiliating agreement, and has also prepared goods worth 100,000 gold crowns, at this time the agreement is being carried with him, and the goods are also in the city, but he did not hand it over so simply, but asked with a deep meaning:

"Since you greenskins like to go straight, then I'll be straightforward, and you're not afraid that I will regret it?"

As soon as the words ended, the mage Egrim and the leader Fitandila behind the city lord picked up their respective staff and scimitars, and put on a posture of fighting if they didn't agree with each other.

100,000 gold coins a year, such a large sum of money, Matthew will not hand it over so easily, although these green skins have just saved his town and people, but if he doesn't give a satisfactory answer, then he will be a capricious villain, as for reputation? What principles are there to talk about with the green trade!

Just when the situation was tense, the threatened party let out a series of loud laughter, as if hearing something particularly happy.

"Hahaha, are you threatening me? Black Heart, didn't you explain it to this shrimp city lord? This agreement is only for the lord to show to the north, I am only responsible for receiving the goods, if you don't give me anything, I guarantee that from now on, no caravan in Fetanburg can safely pass through the rabid trail, believe it or not? Also, do you two of your subordinates want to do it? Do you think there are a lot of people? ”

As soon as the stone finished speaking, the old rotten tooth next to him smiled coldly, stretched out his hand and whistled, and the green-skinned boy who was still cleaning the battlefield behind him immediately began to assemble and prepare to fight.

Seeing that the atmosphere was tense to the extreme, Fitandila of the city guard immediately stepped forward with his sword, protected the city lord behind him, and said loudly:

"What are you going to do, stop those greenskins, or I'll have the archers release their arrows!"

"Little shrimp, I'm not afraid of you archers, I'll just say something, hurry up and give me the agreement, and then hurry up and prepare this year's things, otherwise I won't mind fighting with you again! You haven't had enough of the orc boys you gave me just now! ”

Hearing the stone say this, Matthew, who was standing behind, turned pale, why didn't he expect it at that time! Isn't letting those orc slaves out the same as returning to the mountains?

Thinking of this, combined with what this greenskin had just said, the face of the city lord of Fetanburg began to turn from white to blue.

No wonder these green mushrooms are not afraid of their own remorse, it turns out that they have already grasped their own lifeline.

If it is really according to what he said, in the future, they will be active in the Rabid Trail, with the combat power they have just shown, it will be easy to deal with all the caravans passing by, as long as it takes two months, no, a month, these caravans will spontaneously detour to the north of the Silver Road or the Pinnacle Trail, and then without them, Fetanburg's superior geographical location will be in vain, the bustling market will quickly wither, the floating population will all disappear, and finally the whole town will decay, this is the deadliest!

The more Matthew with a blue face thought about it, the more he felt a chill down his spine, Rip and these greenskins didn't lie, there must be a huge mysterious force behind them, otherwise they would never have made such a careful plan, one ring after another, whether it was the beastmen or Fetanburg, and even those greenskin slaves, they were all counted in, and they were the final winners.

If nothing else, just by looking at this green skin, you can know that he can not only flexibly use various tactics on the battlefield, but also speak the continental lingua franca so fluently, is this still an ordinary green skin? To say that no one taught, absolutely impossible!

But when I think about it, this mysterious force in the north can make such a perfect plan, can touch people's hearts so thoroughly, and can train these savage greenskins to be obedient, which shows how strong their strength is, isn't this just an excellent ally for the isolated Fetanburg?

As soon as his thoughts turned around, Matthew's eyes lit up, his face changed like the sky, and his face, which was still cloudy just now, immediately bloomed, and while pushing away the girl in front of him, he took out the signed agreement from his arms and handed it to Rip, and said with a smile:

"Fitandila, get back to the city and get those wagons out, green ...... Boss, I'm just making a little joke, how can I regret it. ”

Hearing the city lord's instructions, Fitandila was still reluctant, until he was glared at by the former, and then turned around and left angrily.

Seeing the girl's heroic back, Shi sighed in his heart, knowing that his strategy of pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger had succeeded, and he finally fooled this treacherous and cunning city lord.

He also hurriedly turned around and asked the old rotten tooth to go back and inform the boys, what should they do, as long as they waited for the goods to arrive, they would immediately slap their butts and leave.

After waiting for about twenty minutes, a long convoy drove out of the city and stopped at the city gate, and the goblin boys, who had been ready for a long time, rushed up, some kicked the original coachman out of the carriage and sat in the driver's seat themselves, some opened the door and looked at the goods curiously, and some simply climbed on the roof of the car and shouted majestically.

The procurement of these goods was all in charge of Rip, and the list was written by himself, so the stone was very relieved, and took the agreement from the mercenary captain, and the two secretly looked at each other, and the stone immediately turned around and left, and said before leaving:

"In the future, if you want to deal with people, you can ask Rep to contact us, as long as you give money, I will help you beat them."

Matthew was stunned when he heard this, and while staring at the greenskins driving the carriage away, he frowned and thought about the last words of the greenskins.

"City Lord, don't feel distressed, the carriage is gone."

Seeing that Matthew hadn't moved for a long time, Rep thought that he was earning 20% of the pain in the flesh, and persuaded him out loud.

Matthew reacted at this time, and when he saw that the convoy had gone away, he asked in a low voice:

"Captain Rip, we are allies now, you can also tell me, what is the situation of this force you belong to, why is it written in the agreement that Fetanburg and the Broken Claw tribe are allied?"

"Lord of the City, it's not that I want to hide it from you, you also know that there are many evil god believers hidden among human beings, and my family is a thorn in their side, so it is very low-key and not known to outsiders, I can only secretly tell you his name, you must keep it secret!"

"Oh, that's ...... I'll be sure to keep it a secret, so? ”

"My lord is the prince of the northern kingdom of Lordaeron, and his name is Arthas Minahir."
