Chapter 56 Negotiations

"The city lord is already waiting for you there, go over by yourself."

The angel who had been leading Rahu abruptly stopped his progress and pointed to the observation deck built at the top of the castle.

Rahu looked at it fixedly.

Really!

On the observation deck was a small round table, at which a man was sitting, holding a cup as if tasting something, and behind this man was the nun that Rahu had seen when he recruited soldiers.

"It seems that the city lord has been waiting for a long time!" Rahu flew to the observation deck and retracted his wings.

When he got closer, Luo Hu discovered that what was in the city lord's cup was actually tea.

"Mr. Angel, please be seated!" The city lord raised his head, stretched out his hand and pointed to a wooden chair that had already been set up and motioned for Rahu to sit opposite him.

I didn't expect that the lord of Versailles was actually a woman!

Rahu was a little surprised, but when he thought that in the game, the rulers of the Templar clan were queens, and the United Kingdom, one of the three major powers of the Roman United Nations, also had a female queen, and the Flower Empire also had an empress in power, Rahu was not surprised.

"The lord of Versailles is such a beautiful lady, and the lord of the city can be said to be a woman who does not let her eyebrows go." Rahu sat down unceremoniously on the wooden chair.

"Don't women let them shave their eyebrows?" Versailles smiled and said, "Not long ago, someone said this to me, and he told me the meaning of this sentence, and I still remember it clearly. ”

The old saying of the empire of planting flowers that was once also said! Weilong, which is loved by the majority of primary school students and even adults in the flower empire! Tea from the Flower Empire!

has not yet received compensation from the city of Versailles, and Luo Hu feels that this trip to the city of Versailles is worth it!

These things, if only one of them appeared, could be explained by coincidence.

But there are three things at the same time!

"The city lord specially invited Zai Xia to go here, I must have already known the reason for the matter, and I won't make so many detours in the city, and I will go straight to the point with the city lord."

The negotiation was to take the initiative, and Rahu decided to take the lead in order to gain the first opportunity, so without waiting for the lord of Versailles to speak, he took the first step to say his own conditions.

"Because of your intelligence error, it caused the death of three sixth-order knights, fifteen fifth-order priests, twenty-three swordsmen, sixty-seven griffins, one hundred and twenty archers, and two hundred and thirty-three spearmen."

"I hope that you can compensate me for all these dead soldiers, and also count the rewards of the original mission after increasing them fivefold!"

"Your Excellency, this is a lion's big mouth!" Before the city lord could speak, the nun who had slaughtered Rahu fiercely spoke first.

"The lion's mouth?" A strange light flashed in Rahu's eyes, and it was another ancient saying from the Flower Empire.

"Your Excellency, you're wronging me." Rahu retorted: "The reason why these losses are all caused is because of your mistakes, how can it be regarded as a lion's mouth to ask for compensation for this?" ”

"If you are not willing to take even your own mistakes, who will dare to accept the mission in Versailles in the future? Who will know if they are the next me? ”

This sentence is equivalent to directly and clearly saying to the other party, if you don't compensate me for these losses, I will publicize this matter, so that other heroes will not dare to come to take over your heroic mission in Versailles.

Heroic missions are not actually a benefit for heroes, but are created to share the military pressure of Versailles.

According to where Rahu knew from Caesar and Groca.

Instead of ingesting food to sustain life like native creatures, the Heaven-sent Soldier Survival Guards consume strategic gold coins and strategic materials to sustain life.

Therefore, the Tianci soldiers need to distribute strategic materials and strategic gold coins as a weekly salary every week, and if they do not pay a weekly salary, it is like not giving them food.

The weekly salary of the Heaven-given Warrior is the daily needs of the Heaven-given Warrior for a week, that is to say, in daily life, the weekly salary is enough to maintain the consumption of the Heaven-sent Warrior for a week.

And in the time of battle, due to the consumption of physical strength and energy, it is impossible to maintain this consumption with a weekly salary alone.

So how do you make up for these daily burns?

Direct distribution of strategic coins? No! The cost of issuing Strategic Coins directly is simply too expensive.

Thus, this is how such a thing as military rations was created.

The amount of military rations consumed every day is linked to the rank of the heaven-sent warriors, and the higher the rank, the more military rations need to be consumed every day.

In other words, if you want to send troops to exterminate those Heavenly Warriors who are in exile in the wild, you need to consume military rations, which are purchased from strategic gold coins.

In other words, sending troops means spending money.

Spending money is secondary, and the most important thing is the possible death of soldiers.

When a soldier dies, he needs to be re-recruited, and the cost of re-recruiting a soldier is much higher than the cost of maintaining a soldier per week.

The consumption of military rations, combined with the cost of recruiting to replenish the dead soldiers, was a significant expense.

The city of Versailles has a special geographical location, bordering the undead tribes, next to the orcs, and not far from the existence of the swamp tribes.

No one knows if these aliens will secretly send an army into the Templar chassis to do something.

Therefore, it is necessary to send a certain number of soldiers to sit in some key locations.

These soldiers who sat in key locations, combined with the soldiers necessary to defend the city of Versailles, was a huge drain.

This huge consumption, coupled with the consumption caused by the extermination of the rogues, if they want to maintain it, the city of Versailles simply cannot afford it, and they can only choose to reduce the number of troops or not to exterminate the rogues.

Reducing the number of troops means declining strength, and in a world where strength is paramount, declining strength means killing oneself!

Then there is only one way left, not to exterminate the rogues.

However, if they did not destroy the rogues, they would plunder the caravans, and as a result, the income of the city of Versailles would be reduced again.

If the income is reduced, the army cannot be maintained, and the city of Versailles can only reduce the army.

Moreover, if there are many of these rogues, it is possible to organize an attack on the small territory near Versailles, which is an infringement on the income of the city of Versailles.

Therefore, heroic missions are crucial.

If no one dares to take on the heroic mission anymore, the city of Versailles will have to spend more, and it will have to reduce the number of troops, which is the most unacceptable thing for the city of Versailles.

The city lord of Versailles would take a nun in this kind of matter, indicating that his status is not low, and it is estimated that he is either a follower or a commander.

Naturally, nuns do not fail to understand these truths.

Thus, after Rahu's words, the lookout fell into an eerie silence.
