Chapter 239: Ore Crisis

"Alright, what's the third thing you're here about?"

On this issue, Acoste didn't get entangled with Karazedo, his current words were holy decrees for the other party, if he was in a good mood, Acoste might even talk to the other party about a little courtesy, but when he met that group of big businessmen with interests as the core, the half-elf sword saint generally reasoned with the other party with his fists.

Not to mention, this method is actually the most efficient one for businessmen to negotiate, although there is a saying that when there is 100% interest, businessmen will trample on all the laws, when there is 150% interest, they will risk their lives, but if they really have to choose between their own life and profit, the vast majority of businessmen will still choose the former.....

"This third thing is a request I have made to you on behalf of Iheum City."

"Oh? If there's something you want to talk about, let's hear about it. Yacoste was immediately interested, and this was a prelude to the task that the other party was going to give them.

Calculating the time, although the Half-Elf Sword Saint and his party were far away from Arabell City, they still had 20 days to go, and this time period was completely sufficient for them.

Therefore, if someone can really give them any attractive reward, even if they can help themselves, it is not difficult to help.

"That's right, Lord Acoste!" As soon as Karadze heard that the other party seemed likely to agree, an expression that was originally sad was immediately full of smiles. "You know, we in Iheum City are a city of ores, and it is because of the veins here that this prosperous city is forged and fed tens of thousands of people!"

Seeing the other party's passionate and high-spirited words, Yacoste couldn't help but feel funny in his heart, the rich area and the dock area here are quite luxurious, but in addition to these places, Yacoste really didn't feel that other places were also rich.

"But recently, there is a little problem with the ore vein, there are some inexplicable creatures in the veins deep underground, at first there were only a few individual ore veins that were attacked, but as time went on, the ore veins of the monster began to increase, and now, almost no workers dare to mine underground!"

"So for the sake of those poor and poor people, Your Excellency, you should help us!" Karadze said with emotion, in exchange for a mockery from Acoste.

"It's to help you rich people restore your [wealth], right?"

"Hehe, Your Excellency, you are joking, those poor people usually earn a large part of their income by working in the mines, if they can't go to work, I think there will be a large number of people who will not survive this winter." Karadze laughed dryly, a little far-fetched and forced to explain.

"Forget it, I don't bother to care about the in your internal affairs, what kind of monster is the other party, is it that you ore squad, ....." Acoste knew that he had brought out the nickname in his previous life game for a while, but he didn't care, coughed and pointed at Tuhat with his finger, "Didn't your personal guard investigate it?" ”

"Of course there is, Your Excellency." Karazek nodded, and the mage behind him, who had been silent and pretending to be a servant, stepped forward and took out the corpse of a monster from his spatial bag.

A foul smell filled the hall in an instant!

It was a small body, they had pointed ears like elves, but they were attached to their bodies with tiny scales and sharp claws, and they were goblins, but they had never seen a goblin with black skin, and a goblin lived beneath the surface.

"This is the monster, Your Excellency!" Tuhat stepped forward and gave a standard knightly salute to the Half-Elf Sword Saint, "We once led our guards deep into the depths of the earth once, encountered a small detachment of them, and wiped them all out after a fierce battle. ”

"These monsters are very difficult, don't look at their short stature, but they have a lot of strength, they are also very agile, and in the end, they will also spit flames and strong acid, even the elite team I led has almost paid the same battle loss rate as these monsters to destroy them!" 、

"By? What did you say? You say they also spit flames and strong acids? ”

Acoste's brow on his calm face suddenly raised, and those who are familiar with him must know that the half-elf has thought of something not very beautiful again.......

"That's right, that's the evidence they've left on my armor, it's a piece of armor of exceptional quality!"

Tuhat took off his armor and pointed to a small charred hole in his back shoulder, and said in a solemn voice.

"Okay, I see, but what I want to know is, if our team is willing to help you, what can you pay us?" The Half-Elf Sword Master waved his hand to indicate that he understood, and then stared at Karazar with a fierce gaze from a pair of eyes.

"Well, I can take out a few transcendent weapons from my treasury as a reward, or rather, I can give you the same amount of gold!" The city lord of Iheom City was a little weak in his heart, he had seen the power of Acoste, but he had never been in contact with this kind of professional, so he didn't know what basic price he should pay to satisfy the other party.

"No, I don't need that." Acoste shook her head as she expected. "If I accept this task, you have to give me 40 percent of the tax revenues of Iheom City, and I must also let my people take over a share of the docks, ore quarries, food, heavy industry, these sectors."

"No, it can't be, you're blackmailing! Why don't you just let me just hand over the whole city of Iheom to you? ”

Hearing such an excessive request, Karaze stopped doing it all of a sudden, he temporarily forgot the horror of the half-elf sword saint and stood up and yelled, this is too bullying isn't it, all of the above-mentioned industries are the lifeblood of their city, and there is also 40% of the annual tax revenue, you must know that no other nobles dare to touch this field.

"No, you believe me, the trouble you encountered this time is definitely not as simple as you imagined, and I am not asking too much at all, this is the part I deserve for doing things for you!" Seeing that the other party was so disrespectful to him, Acoste did not get angry, but continued to keep his smile.

"I'll leave the city tomorrow at noon, and you'd better think about it before you do that, Lord Karazeze."

"Sending off!" (To be continued.) )
