Fei Lun froze, organized his words, and slowly spoke: "The source of hatred between the two races is just two intersections between humans and barbarians.

"For the first time, fifty years ago, the barbarians invaded and killed the entire northern county, and the population was not one in a hundred. Even now, except for the Black Stone Collar, other places can be described as desolate. As far as humanity as a whole is concerned, this is naturally as deep as the sea.

"But this was all fifty years ago, even if the people who were born back then, and those who are still alive now are fifty years old, how many are left? Others don't have personal pain, how barbarians are, it's mostly hearsay, but in fact, there is not much hatred in their hearts. ”

As he spoke, Fei Lun looked up at the lord sitting above and said, "What do you think, my lord?" ”

Marlon nodded and said, "Go on!" ”

As if encouraged, he excitedly said, "Speaking of the second contact, it is still the barbarian who took the initiative to invade...... Of course, it is also said that the Lord assassinated the Barbarian King first......"

Speaking of this, Fei Lun glanced at Ma Long with some uneasiness, and saw that he didn't say much, so he calmed down and continued: "But it's not important, what really matters is that the human race has not suffered, especially with the support of the adult resurrection technique, we even have very few soldiers who have really died in battle.

"Not only that, but the Black Stone Collar also took advantage of this to occupy a large amount of land in Northern Xinjiang, and put the south of the Gelong River under its rule, and its area was almost no less than that of the entire Northern County......

Therefore, the human race did not lose anything in this war, but gained a lot, as long as it was properly promoted, there should be no hatred. Some of the few who do have a deep hatred are not many after all, but they do not affect the overall situation.

"It is the barbarians who really have ideas, but by virtue of their habits, the tribe is a whole, and there is no relationship between honor and disgrace with each other, and the dead have nothing to do with the living, so there is no hatred, and there is not much racial glory......

Ma Long listened to Fei Lun's analysis, and kept turning thoughts in his heart, and finally had to admit that what the other party said was indeed reasonable.

He personally participated in the battle with the barbarians, and he belonged to the deep game, and after all, he was not as clear as an outsider.

Next, he asked about some details and the specific arrangements of Fei Lun, knowing that he had only just begun to try and had not pounced on a large scale, so he said a few words without pain: "Next time there is such a thing, remember to report it first." ”

"Yes!" Fei Lun bowed and replied, and he didn't excuse himself!

He knew that the bet was right, Marlon was different from the nobles he knew before, he didn't care much about courtesy, and he paid more attention to what you actually did.

This time it is considered to have passed the test, as long as you don't make mistakes and do things seriously in the future, you will not be less prosperous and rich.

It wasn't until Malone left the Consulate that he wiped the cold sweat on his head, knowing that his vest was already soaked.

After all, it's a gamble on the future, and it's false to say that you're not afraid.

I even sighed in my heart, this Ma Long is much more powerful than the other Grand Duke, and he is worthy of being killed all the way by a civilian.

Obviously, I just sat there, and I didn't see any anger, and I was almost out of breath.

In the future, let's play less tricks and do things with peace of mind, if one is not very ......

Fei Lun shook his head, not daring to think deeply!

Marlon left the Consulate and saw that it was getting late, so he went to his residence in Tucheng.

It is a building that belongs to the core of the city.

This area is guarded by knights at all times, and ordinary people can't enter, and those who can come are all people with real status in the Blackstone Territory, or they have been invited.

Ma Long returned to his residence, and after dinner, he did not rest, he was still thinking about Fei Lun's rhetoric during the day, summarizing the loopholes.

Indeed, as he said, as long as there are enough interests, the merchants are willing to give up their hatred, and they will not be at odds with the gold coins.

Not only that, but in the case of a sufficiently lucrative income, there are even people who sneak into contact with the barbarians.

Rather than that, it's better to take these things into control from the start......

In the next few days, while listening to Fei Lun's report, he walked around Tucheng to understand the situation.

The Dwarven Tavern, where Marlon meets Goldbeard again.

He is now in human territory almost most of the time, and rarely in the Hui people.

It's equivalent to becoming a dwarven ambassador to the Terrans!

Last year, the kingdom used him to contact the dwarves, and spent a lot of money to get a lot of artillery support.

When Marlon saw him again, Goldbeard was drunk, sitting on a chair and swaying, as if he was about to fall to the ground at any moment.

"How's it going?" Malone took a large glass of ale and sat across from him.

The golden beard was drunk and hazy, and when he saw Ma Long, he was a little surprised and said loudly: "Ma Long, you are back, when did it happen?" ”

"Shhhh......h ”

It's not that he's afraid of these people, it's just that now he comes out alone in civilian clothes, and he doesn't have guards around him, so he doesn't want to be recognized.

In this era when there are no cameras and no Internet, many people have heard of Ma Long's reputation, but only a few have actually seen it.

Without wearing a specific costume or bringing a guard, he just stood in front of others, and not many people knew that this was the famous Blackstone Lord!

Malone doesn't want to be a monkey in the zoo to be watched, and he can't use force to drive people out of his own city, so he can only be careful.

"How's it going?" He continued to ask, looking for the Golden Beard was a temporary idea, but in fact, it was not a big deal.

I just want to find someone to talk to, but now there are fewer and fewer people like that.

Even the few partners who grew up together, except for John, the others had more or less scruples when facing him, and they were no longer as harmonious as they were at the beginning!

"It's fine, the same as before." Goldbeard also seemed to understand his scruples, so he lowered his voice.

"What about your clan, didn't you go back?" Malone took a sip of the cup to his lips.

The dwarf shook his head, a little depressed, and said, "You know me, what's the point of going back?" ”

"Haven't you accepted it yet?" Marlon sighed, "You dwarves are so stubborn! ”

Goldbeard just drank and shook his head, but didn't speak.

"Teacher......" At this moment, a dwarf came out of the inner room, saw Ma Long, and greeted him happily.

"Jimmy, come and sit!" Marlon gestured to the location beside him.

When Goldbeard saw his nephew coming, his originally depressed mood also cheered up, "At least Jimmy understands me." ”

"How's it going, have you been practicing what I've taught you lately?"

"I'm serious about my practice!" The child's innocent voice sounded, and he was much more cheerful than before, after living with his uncle for a while.

Marlon chatted with him for a while, and Goldbeard sat across from him and watched with a smile on his face.

It wasn't until someone bought the liquor and Jimmy went over to help that the two continued to talk about trivial matters.
