A few days have passed, and we have not had any major events, but the green patch in the farmland is so pleasing to the eye that people are happy to see it. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 infoDuring this time, due to the continuous increase in population, our food demand is also increasing, and there is a lot less bread on the table, but there is more meat for beasts and monsters. Although it is the dream of many people to live with meat, we are not hunters after all, we can't eat meat all the time, and the meat that hunters eat is not very much. We have drawn a lot of food from the town of Babula, and although it is okay for the time being, it is not a long-term solution. Before the grain of those fifty acres of land is mature, I am afraid that I will not be able to expand the army, and the army will consume more food.

However, although the number of troops has not changed, we have accumulated a lot of gold coins and cards by clearing out the monsters in the forest these days, and I have used these cards to promote the old troops who have not been upgraded, and the direct result is that there are more than a hundred more level 2 militia in our team, sixty or seventy more barbarians, and the number of archers has not changed, but the level of these more than fifty archers has reached level 2 or above. Eve and Eli, the first archer sisters who followed me, put me to good use. I forgot to upgrade them with Sisters' Army Marksman, and I always felt guilty. But last time we had a big fight in the forest, the problem was solved. At that time, hundreds of genuine demonic beasts attacked us under the leadership of two Rank 7 woodland giant apes (whose strength was above that of the one-horned Mosenmon, who had a high IQ and knew the magic of several different elements). The result was that we lost some people, and the two big guys were beaten by Mei Long, who was at the peak of the high-level warriors, and fled with a few younger brothers, and I also got a golden treasure chest. There were a lot of level 2 archer cards opened, and I directly promoted the two sisters to level 4 and became sister army archers. I also appoint captains of archers below level 4, and the sisters have their own team. I also opened a musketeer in the treasure chest, and I summoned her and asked her to give it to Hannah (remember the name of our beautiful purple-haired musketeer?). As a companion, now a giant can sit on one side on his shoulders, and a giant can sit on another.

Of course, in addition to treasure chests, gold coins, and 50 trophies, those Warcraft that gave experience also left us with a large amount of loot. Although most of the monsters in this world don't have anything similar to the magic core in their bodies, there are definitely a lot of valuable things! Fur, horns, feathers, bones, blood...... Anyway, we got all the money that could be sold for it, and the leftover meat could be used for a barbecue party.

Although we lost quite a few people that day (no less than twenty), the barbecue party that night was still very lively. The townspeople all attended the dinner, and each of them was given a large piece of meat, which was not to be eaten pleasantly. You know, there are many fourth- and fifth-order demonic beasts in these magical beasts, and their meat is a great supplement, and the aborigines of the tribe are in good health, so I estimate that our civilians are stronger than those so-called soldiers after eating a few meals like this. Meron and Philip opened two barrels of wine, which were quickly drunk, and the people and soldiers danced the tribal dance, and sang the songs of the kingdom on each other's shoulders, which was not for a while unpleasant. Of course, the goblins also made jokes, and when these drunken little dwarfs were messing around, you carefully exposed the place where they hid the loot, and after looking at the boxes of copper and silver coins and all kinds of valuable loot, I realized how much this group of little bastards usually cheated me! Of course, I won't be too pushy, but they don't want the bonus this month (it doesn't seem to be much).

Our town life is also on the right track, although it is a little slower, and there are a lot of jokes, but the holy water collector has also collected more than a thousand units of holy water units of holy water and stored them in holy water bottles, but unfortunately the place of those beasts is far away, and the holy water collector can't collect it, otherwise the holy water must be full! However, more than 1,000 units of holy water are enough to talk about business next...

After several days of waiting, the mission of the alliance finally arrived.

Unlike the last time when the army was armed, this time the number of missions of the Tri-Cities Council was not more than the last time, but it was of a high level. Wren is the leader of the team, but he is only the deputy of the Mondona mission, and the envoy is Sutton, the city defense officer of Mondona, the commander-in-chief of the three garrisons of Mondona, and the number two person in the city. Amr and Grandall's mission consisted of a respected outgoing ruler Locke Lauren, and a well-known sheriff Nesta who, with the exception of a few guards, were politicians and profiteers, who were clearly interested in the negotiations, and even the trade men came.

"They won't sell cheap, it's impossible, the price of the bottle alone is not low, what we have to do is to use all means to lower the price!" The leader of the merchant kept discussing with the merchant next to him, and all kinds of numbers flew around his mouth. However, as people who are really capable of deciding the outcome of this negotiation, they have very few words at this time, just keep thinking about it, and look at the direction of the Tibetan Soldier City in the north with a solemn expression.

"According to Mondona, the so-called lord is a young man. The young man's mind is still relatively easy to understand, I just hope that he is not an old monster of the East who has swallowed some kind of elixir of youth and immortality, then I can't do anything. "Hearing this joke from Rock Lauren, everyone in the neighborhood laughed, and he himself was no exception." In short, they are all smart people, and we have to be careful not to say things that should not be said. They are very strong, and we can't just offend them. Locke Lauren instructed, and the person next to him kept nodding.

"Hidden Soldier City? Is it meant that there are many armies? Oriental people are so funny. Okay, let me see what you're capable of. Netas smiled and involuntarily quickened his whip.

"Get ready, Wren, let's go meet that "Master Lee" you spoke of. Sutton said to Wren, and then looked up to see the silhouette of a city protected by wooden walls appear on the horizon.

The trumpet sounded, and the gates of the Tibetan Soldier City opened again.

………………

"This house is more than a little better than the last time I came, and the whole town is like a renovation." Wren looked at the level 2 base camp and whispered to Sutton.

"We've got a deeper understanding of them." Sutton nodded, and entered the base camp with several important members of his mission.

The meeting began, and I spent 100 gold coins to buy a silk robe (which looked oriental) in order to be more formal, and was slaughtered by the old man Mane, but the effect of this simple hanfu and the way of saluting were still no problem to frighten them.

I don't know anyone else except Rennes, but they are all local bigwigs, and I can feel that aura, but fortunately it's us at home, so I don't have to be afraid of this aura.

"It's a pleasure to meet you, young leader. I admire your ability and insight, and I would be satisfied if my children had one-fifth of your abilities. Okay, let's get down to business. Old Locke said calmly.

I have to say that this retired old consul was of a very high level, and he seized the initiative at once, and his conversation with us was both gentle and profound, and a lot of information came out of my mouth during the small talk. Fortunately, I reacted in time, and began to parry with ease by relying on the rhetoric I had formulated in advance.

"We are eager to join the alliance and take on our common enemy, the Kingdom of Subic, who have caused us a lot of trouble (if the robbers count...... When you ask me why I want to join the Free Cities Alliance, I tell you that I hate the Kingdom and appreciate the way it thinks...... I don't do it for anyone, for any force, it's for us and the people of the Alliance......" With the help of the two knights and Vera, who wrote the speech, I gradually seized the initiative and, after answering their questions, began to ask them rhetorical questions.

"Why didn't the coalition respond to our request to join? We helped the alliance a lot, but the alliance dealt with us in a semi-coercive way at the beginning, can you deny that? ”

My question knocked down the politicians on the coalition side, who didn't seem to have imagined that we would be so good at using "reason" as a weapon. In fact, I myself know that a lot of what we say is nonsense, just using "reason" as a shield, but "convincing" people with "reason" is an excellent tradition of our nation, and of course I want to use it. "Shameless statements, tying themselves to the banner of morality, but the truth is here, and they can't say anything." That's what I say about my own statement.

"Alright, that's the end of the question about our purpose, let's talk about the benefits of joining the Alliance."

"In the face of interests, there are no friends or foes" Whether it is us, or those guys in the Three Cities Council, they understand this truth very well. I took out the holy water, they took out the gold, we all need each other now, and I told them frankly that I longed for the land, but I loved the territory of the lords of Subic far more than the Alliance (which is a foolish argument, of course), but the "sincere" look still touched some people, such as the sheriff. Of course, what struck them was the benefits, and the benefits that the holy water could bring to the Free Cities Alliance.

"Mr. Li, your conditions are very tempting. But you should also know that we are also negotiating with Miss Fang Zi in Phoenix City, if you both join the alliance, those two ruling seats will not be easy to manage......" Fiddling with the holy water in his hand, Sutton said with some difficulty.

"So be it." I pretended to think about it for a while (in fact, Fang Zi and I have been in touch in private chats. The old guys in the council thought very clearly, I and Fang Zi are together, once we get two seats in the council, with the support of a city, both legally and in terms of strength, the alliance will be controlled by us. "In this way, I will write a letter to Fang Zi, and we will join the Free Cities Alliance as an alliance and occupy a seat. How is it? I said.

I saw the heads of the three missions look at each other, and a gleam flashed in their eyes.

"Then, if Miss Fang Zi doesn't agree......"

"I'm sure he'll agree, and if not, I can give up this seat." I replied.

It didn't take long for us to discuss this matter before we signed an agreement and officially joined the alliance, but the seats and ownership naturally had to be vacated first.

"Mr. Li, I wonder if we can talk about holy water?" Old Locke asked with a smile.

"Don't worry, a few people have come from afar, it's just noon, please stay and have a meal together, how about visiting our town?" I smiled and invited.

"Thank you for having me." Locke winked at the others and agreed to my invitation.

I motioned to leave the base camp for a moment, glanced at the merchants gathered outside and whispered about it, and called over a few goblins.

"Treat them well, listen carefully, and figure out their price line!"
