Chapter 281: A Thousand Miles of Marriage
Higg, who was still meditating, did not open his eyes, but continued to meditate in the same position.
The visitor continued to smile and said: "Lord Earl, you must be clear, this is Zorma City, not your Fuxing City, even if you are a tiger, you have to lie on your stomach when you get here!" β
Higg didn't open his eyes, and said coldly to the visitor: "A dying man, what qualifications do you have to talk to me here?" Yavanti, it's not a pity for you to die, I only feel sorry for your father, and I end up with the sorrow of an old man who lost his son! β
Yavanti laughed and said, "Hahaha, you don't scare me here!" Since you know it's me, you should know that when you get to Zorma City, it's us who have the final say! β
"What charges are you going to charge me?" Higg asked with a sneer.
"It's not easy to find your guilt!" Avanti smiled: "However, the crime of detaining and detaining the princess is enough to arrest you and lock you up!" β
Higg laughed: "Well, yes, this is indeed a good crime, and it is a heinous crime, and I will have to shed my skin if I don't die!" β
"However, things are not without room for manoeuvre!" "As long as the Earl is willing to bow his head and apologize to us, then compensate us for the losses in Fuxing City, and then let us participate in the business of cooperating with the money village and pawnshop in Dolma City, these crimes are all floating clouds, and I believe we will become good partners and friends!" β
"It turns out that the son of Yawanti gave me six chances!" Higg smiled: "Okay, it's easy to apologize, but what to say about compensating for losses?" What is the cooperation between the money bank and the pawnshop? β
Avanti said, "Your Excellency has brought us to disrepute in Fuxing City, and just apologizing is not sincere. I know that Lord Earl is sitting in Fuxing City, and he is not short of money, and we don't want much, just two million gold coins, which should be regarded as compensation for the medical expenses and loss of face for us people! As for the cooperation method between the money bank and the pawnshop, Fuxing City Investment, we guarantee that the Earl's business in Zolma City will be smooth, and of course, the remuneration is half of the profits of the money bank and the pawnshop! Well, Lord Earl, our demands are not too high, are we? β
Higg fell into deep thought, and after a long time, he said: "Of course it's not high, the price is fair!" However, this matter is too big, I need time to think about it, you come back in two days, and I will give you an answer! β
"Really?" Avanti was overjoyed.
Higg laughed, "You don't seem to have given me a second option!" β
"Good!" Avanti said excitedly, "Lord Earl, then I will come back the day after tomorrow!" β

Lan Xian'er seemed to be very anxious in Qianzhuang, but she knew that her every move in Zhuoerma City had long been monitored, so except for submitting a post asking for Catherine to meet with Ouchi in the name of Lady Erpin every two days, there was no big move, just waiting anxiously for Ouchi's response in Qianzhuang.
She took advantage of this time to help sort out the pawnshop business in Zolma City. Zorma City is one of the most important cities in Alasia, and now it is Catherine's companion capital, where people live are not high-ranking officials and dignitaries, or wealthy businessmen, if the money village pawnshop here is done well, it will soon be able to form a reputation and radiate to the whole country, which is undoubtedly very important for their own idea of establishing the Jin Yuan Empire based on the money village.
In the final analysis, what Fuxing City lacks most now is talent! Denilson and Charlie are both bandits, in the early stage of the construction of Fuxing City, they can barely be qualified to manage the city, but as the population of Fuxing City increases, and the city becomes more comprehensive, complex, and civilized, their thinking is limited.
In order to continue to maintain this rapid development model, Fuxing City must vigorously introduce and cultivate talents, maintain the most advanced urban development model, and continuously inject fresh blood. For Denelson and Charlie, they are outdated as the first de facto rulers of Renaissance City. Lan Xian'er needs to tap more talents to enrich the council of Fuxing City, and gradually dilute the power of these two people, which was originally what Higg, the city lord, should do, but in recent years, Hig has put his body and mind all on the military, and Lan Xian'er herself can only slowly shoulder this burden, forming a family model of male protagonist and female protagonist.
"Sister Blue Fairy!" As soon as Butterfly Caiyun entered the bank, she shouted happily, and Thomas followed suit.
Lan Xian'er smiled for the first time in the past few days, Thomas and Butterfly Caiyun, the partners formed on the battlefield, almost grew up by Higg and Lan Xian'er, and they were out-and-out Higg's descendants, "Why did you arrive so quickly, I thought you would arrive in two days!" β
Thomas smiled and said, "After handing over Her Royal Highness to the Second Legion, we were worried that there would be no one around you to use, so we immediately changed from the waterway to riding horses and rushed over!" β
"Where's Uncle Higg?" Butterfly Caiyun asked with a smile.
"Why do you call him uncle and sister me?" Lan Xian'er said, "He has something to do and go out for a few days, it's good for you to come!" There's nothing to do here for the time being, so it's time for you to relax and take a good look around Zorma City and see the grandeur of the royal city! β
Butterfly Yununu mouthed and said, "That's what Thomas called, and of course I called it that!" β
"What's there to see in Dolma City?" Thomas said, "If we want to see the royal city of Crodine, this is just a companion city, and I can't get used to the faces of the people here!" β
Die Caiyun hurriedly said: "Thomas, you have to be careful when you talk here, don't make trouble for Sister Lan Xian'er, this is not Fuxing City, not Bavaria!" β
"Okay, okay, I'll talk less in the future, okay?" Thomas smiled, and then asked Lan Xian'er: "Sister, I found that there are a few sneaky guys around the bank, aren't they eyeing our bank?" Who are they? β
"Leave them alone!" Lan Xian'er said, "As long as Fuxing City does not fall, and the Fifth Legion does not fall, in Zolma City, no one dares to attack Qian Zhuang!" Hehe, there will always be some insatiable fools who can't see the situation clearly and want to get something for nothing! To be honest, in fact, we came this time to give Qian Zhuang Liwei! β
"Liwei?" Butterfly Caiyun was surprised, "Uncle Higg won't do anything dangerous again, will he?" I used to have nothing, and I just took risks, but now I am a marshal, an earl, and a city lord, and I am still working so hard, sometimes I really don't understand what you men are thinking! β
Thomas smiled awkwardly: "Hehe, why did you talk about me too?" β
Die Caiyun said angrily: "Aren't you the same? have become generals, commanders of the side, every charge is always at the front, which time you are not injured you are uncomfortable, I don't know if people are worried? Sister Lan Xian'er, don't you say? β
Lan Xian'er looked at the bickering of the two young people, and said with a smile: "I can't control my man myself, don't you want to follow me, you can't manage your own man!" β
Die Caiyun blushed shyly, lowered her head and said, "Who is my man, sister, don't talk nonsense!" β
"Oh, isn't it?" Lan Xian'er smiled, "That's easy to do, Jesse that girl is good, although she is from Orion, but in this kind of troubled times, who cares so much?" Thomas himself is a herdsman, and they are a good match, I intend to match the two of them, Die Caiyun, what do you think? β
"Sister, you bully!" Butterfly Caiyun turned around and slipped into the inner room, "Hmph, ignore you!" β
"Hahaha!" Looking at Die Caiyun's embarrassed appearance, Lan Xian'er smiled, and then asked Thomas, who was embarrassed on the side, "How long will the matter of the two of you drag on?" β
Thomas looked down and asked, "What's the matter?" β
Lan Xian'er smiled: "Do you really want me to match you and Jesse?" β
Thomas hurriedly said: "Then what can I do, what about Butterfly Caiyun?" β
"What are you doing with your head down?" Lan Xian'er smiled deliciously, "So, you agree to marry Die Caiyun?" β
Thomas looked up and asked, "What's the use of me agreeing, will Butterfly Caiyun agree?" β
"Then I don't know!" Lan Xian'er said, "You're a man, why don't you ask her yourself?" β
"I don't dare!" Thomas bowed his head again.
"Is this still our formidable General Thomas?" Lan Xian'er smiled, "Butterfly Caiyun doesn't have parents, and your parents are not around, and that guy Xige has never cared about this kind of thing!" You and Die Caiyun grew up watching Higg and me, he doesn't care, I can't care! Born in troubled times, there are not so many etiquette laws to follow, tomorrow, I will hold a grand wedding for you, so that the whole street will bless you! Hehe, it's really good, one is from Rainbow Island and the other is from the prairie, it's really a marriage of thousands of miles! β
"Will Butterfly Caiyun agree?"
"Since you don't dare to say it, of course I did!" Lan Xian'er said, "What, you don't have confidence in yourself? β
Thomas hesitated, gritted his teeth, and said, "Okay, I'll go and say!" β
"That's pretty much it!" Blue Fairy approving, then shouted loudly, "Goldle, come here!" β
The shopkeeper of the money bank, Gao Deer, hurriedly rushed over and asked, "Madam, is there something wrong?" β
Lan Xian'er said with a smile: "Gao Deer, from today, Qian Zhuang will be closed for a few days to hold a wedding for Thomas and Die Caiyun!" β
"Wedding? But the city lord is still ......."
"Do as I say!" Lan Xian'er said, "Mobilize all the people in the money village and invite all the guests you can invite!" In addition, I don't care what method you use, let all the people on this street come to the wedding, and they don't have to pay their salutes, and hold a flowing banquet for three days in a row! β
"This ......," said GΓΆdel, after a moment's hesitation, "well, I'll arrange it!" β
"Sister, are you using it so extravagantly?" Thomas hurriedly stopped GΓΆdel and said, "It's easy!" β
"How can that be?" Lan Xian'er said, "How can the general of my Fuxing City hold a wedding in Zolma City? GΓΆdel, I don't ask you to invite any high-ranking officials and celebrities, I just need a lot of people and a lively scene, it's okay, go and do it! β
"Sister, Mrs. ......"
"Thomas, if you're a mother-in-law, I really don't care!"
