Chapter Twenty-Six: The Plans of the Aristocrats and the Wealthy Merchant
With the supplies for sale on Jonny's side, the food on the tables of those nobles and wealthy merchants is finally decent. However, they were enjoying a rare and hearty lunch, but their faces were a little ugly at this time.
"Why, we have far more things in our hands than those of the Roccomann family, why is he unwilling to accept our invitation, is he going to refuse our friendship?"
In the attitude towards the attack of the Zerg and the cockroach people, after losing those combat powers, these people chose to back the Roc Mann family and this town. In order to survive, they have done a lot of ways to endanger this place, and after the Rockomann family, with the help of Wicker and Sickle, regained the town and gained the support of the residents, they did not dare to come out and contact them easily.
Of course, the people here have not forgotten the suffering and torture they have brought, but under the preaching of some sensible people, they also understand this helpless act for survival. It's just that, understanding is understanding, no matter what, people here cannot forgive these betrayers. Because of this, Dolan didn't let people come into contact with them.
At this time, Jonny sold a large amount of food supplies, although they were also puzzled, where did they come from. But it seems that it can't be sold, so Dolan is bent on leaving some more food reserves for the town, and he doesn't have the time and energy to take care of the ideas of those aristocratic and wealthy merchants.
Wicker and the warriors loyal to the Roccomann family have been looking for mineral vein herbs that can be pawned, as well as other supplies. Even if the aristocratic rich merchants had more than half of the wealth in Rocmann Town, they had a grudge and didn't pay attention to their meaning.
How could they not understand these truths and the reasons for all this, when they are in an embarrassing situation. Originally, I was still thinking of waiting for the price to sell, or someone forcibly took away all my family property. That way, they would not have been so tormented without these fearless torments.
The Roccomann family's ignorance made them fidget. Coupled with Jonny's material support, more and more people are showing their loyalty to Doran and Ark because of this, and if they don't act, they will probably be settled.
However, the invitation sent to Jonny can be said to be expected, and it was rejected. This makes them not know how to eat at this time, even if they eat a hearty meal that they haven't eaten for a long time.
"I'm full, guys, I'll take my leave!"
The young nobleman, who was in his twenties, didn't take a few bites, and his eyes flashed with an inexplicable brilliance. He looked at the people sitting in a circle, and there was a mocking smile on his lips. After picking up a white napkin and wiping the corners of his mouth, he got up and said politely to the people present, and then turned to leave.
"Well, I'm full too, thank you for your hospitality! There's still a lot to do at home, Sir Berida, and I'm taking my leave! ”
A chubby man, who was also not very old, but showed a rich figure, got up and politely thanked the nobleman sitting in the main seat, and left with him.
"Hmph, a few hairy boys, it's just unreliable! What should we do, Lord Berida, to offer our worthless loyalty to Rocman, or to show our friendship to the Managing Minister! ”
The merchant man, who was slightly chubby and had a short beard on his chin, looked cleaner today than he was yesterday. Looking at the aristocratic old man with a gray beard and a somewhat thin body, he said in a somewhat helpless tone. Just looked at the figures walking away from the door, and there was a little annoyance in their eyes.
"Don't worry, Getogro, these cute little ones will help us find our way! We'll just wait, and with all the wealth we have, even those hateful bugs will obediently put away their claws! ”
Bernida glanced at the few people who had been left behind, except for a few young people who had left, those who had lived for nearly half their lives. Maybe they are not sharp enough, but they also live a long time, and they are much smarter than those who have died a long time ago.
Although without the enthusiasm of adventure, they may lose some of their benefits, but a conservative approach can still allow them to live longer. It is also because of this that those who were higher and richer than them before left one by one, but they are still alive.
"Then we still have to prepare early, but we can't let Nile and Clear eat even the bones and dregs for us!"
Getogro was also a very discerning businessman, otherwise he would not have sat down at the same table with these nobles. What's more, after experiencing that disaster, those who can survive until now are not clever and smart, and I am afraid that they will die a long time ago.
"Hehe, then please, Getogro! After this incident, I will introduce you to the Duke, and with the wealth in your hands, you are enough to become one of the knights! ”
Naturally, Berida knew what attracted them the most to Gatorogro, the businessmen who sat here. Even the lowliest knights are nobles, the kind of people who have privileges.
"We will not forget you, my honourable Lord Berneda!"
Even the lowest jazz has an upper and lower rank. Sir Bernida in front of him, even if they become knights of the same level, they must maintain respect for him. This is a noble knight who will become a higher baron at any time.
Watching the departure of the merchants of Getoglo, Berida took a long breath, waved his hand at the two nobles next to him with concern in their eyes, and said with a little smile on his face.
"I'm fine, you guys go get ready! At such times, the only thing we can believe in is ourselves! Compared with gold coins and jewelry, which can't even be found by insects, things that can be eaten, drunk and used are the wealth we really should have! Go ahead, otherwise those merchants may not even leave us with a mouthful of leftover soup! ”
"Yes, Sir Berida!"
Looking at Berida, a nobleman who seemed to have aged a lot in an instant, the two nobles got up and bent down, and after showing respect to him, they left with a heavy face.
Gold, silver, jewelry, nobility, kingdom! Hehe, if I can fill my stomach, you are my pursuit! Now, for the sake of the food, please leave my world first!
Tears glistened with tears in Berida's eyes, and now he truly understood what he needed most. It's not too late, it's not too late to understand now, no matter what time it is, those things that can be eaten are far more valuable than the gold, silver, pearls and jade that can only be looked at but not eaten.
