Chapter 164: Take out the gold coins

Seeing Su Geman's pitiful eyes, Su Xiao hurriedly relieved the siege: "Heyβ€”β€”, this sword was obtained by us in the Snow Mountain, and we picked it up and used it when we saw that the quality was good and the grade was appropriate, who knows who the person who forged the sword was?" It's just a level 25 purple weapon, even if it comes from the hands of a famous court craftsman, it's not worth the earl's rush to it, right? ”

"If that's the case, don't ask. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info "As soon as Earl Dave heard this, he knew that they didn't want to talk about the origin of this sword, so he didn't delve into it anymore, and asked instead: "Two days ago, the envoy sent by the king himself has been staying with me, and he has also brought relevant oral documents, these news about the copper mines in the depths of the snow-capped mountains, presumably the brave man is also curious, right?" ”

To be honest, Su Xiao was not curious at all, he sent the copper sand to the Earl's Mansion just for a piece of white iron, and as for the mess of detection and mining, it was best not to let him encounter it. However, after all, this matter started by Su Xiao, and the mineral deposits are also closely related to the small village where Kekeli was born, so he can't ignore it, so he has to pretend to be very interested.

Seeing Su Xiao like this, Earl Dave couldn't help but nodded, and then asked cautiously: "Of course I have the heart to share this matter with the brave, but before that, I have to ask first: Have several brave men been taken under the command of the city lord?" ”

Su Xiao hated Gong Dou, so when the city lord signaled to be reused by him, he chose to ignore it. Now change the object, although he has a good impression of Earl Dave, but when he hears such a question as choosing a side, he can't help frowning.

Seeing Su Xiao's unhappy expression, Earl Dave hurriedly explained: "That's the case, the royal envoy said that the king attaches great importance to this copper mine, and there will be a heavy reward after the matter is completed." When I heard these words, I immediately thought of a few brave men, and felt that you deserve to be credited. However, I heard that the brave man first received a special meritorious service, and then he was treated by the lord of the castle, and stayed in the castle for ten days, so I would like to take this opportunity to confirm the position of the few of them. ”

"Confirm?" Su Xiao asked lukewarmly, "I don't know what the Count plans to do after confirmation?" ”

When it comes to status and interests, Earl Dave did not make the slightest concession, and said solemnly: "In recent years, the Marshall family has been unfavorable, and there are often grievances in Peacock City, and it is only a matter of time before I take over the position of city lord." However, the prestige of a few brave men makes this a definite situation full of uncertainties, if you really choose to camp with the Marshall family, then in order to prevent the evil forces from continuing to expand, please forgive me for not being able to share the king's favor with a few brave men. ”

Although Su Xiao eats and drinks the city lord's these days, in the final analysis, he doesn't like the Marshall family's style, and he eats, drinks, uses and takes in other people's homes, and the result is that he doesn't hate it. However, if Su Xiao wants to join Earl Dave's camp, he also refuses in his heart - the main quest has not been solved, who is in the mood to care about any side quest?

"The earl can rest assured, I Su Xiao swear that I will never be with the Marshall family in this life." Without waiting for Earl Dave to smile, Su Xiao said again: "But I really don't want to participate in the palace fight, so I won't join the earl's camp." The court has what the court has to do, and the brave have what the brave should do, I hope you can understand. ”

Unexpectedly, Earl Dave still laughed, shook his head and said: "It's okay, it's okay, as long as you choose neutrality, I'm very satisfied, and the king's reward must be indispensable to the brave." ”

To say that Count Dave can still be satisfied after being rejected by Su Xiao so bluntly, it is definitely polite, but then again, as long as Su Xiao does not help the Marshall family, the relationship between Count Dave and the current city lord is no different from before the brave crossed, and sitting on the throne of the city lord is still a sure thing, and he naturally has no reason to resent.

Earl Dave obviously had something to do when he went out of the city at noon, and Su Xiao was also in a hurry to go to the silver restaurant for dinner, the former took advantage of this short meeting to ask Su Xiao's position clearly, and the latter used the conversation to make a friend, since they couldn't find anything to talk about for a while, the two looked at each other and smiled to get together and disperse.

After saying goodbye to Earl Dave, Sugman asked curiously, "Dude, that earl is quite good, why don't you join his family?" ”

"How do you want me to explain this kind of thing?" Su Xiao said with a sad face: "How many things can be taken for granted in life? I ate Hesse in the castle every day and slept in the VIP room, and it was not appropriate to sell people when I went out. Besides, their mess is not a competition on the table, on the one hand, I really hate intrigues, on the other hand, I really don't have that idle time, and then I can't say it in conscience. ”

De Moller said with a little regret: "People are rich and rich, and rough people like us can't climb it if they want to, and you are not happy to invite you, it is really ...... Hey, if you want me to say, this thing is nothing more than standing on the side, you just have to make your position clear, you don't have to do the things that are intriguing in the future, you should have to take care of the money and rights, and when the Marshall family falls, how much can conscience be worth? It's better to take advantage of the big ship of Earl Dave in the morning, and wait for him to become the lord of the city, wouldn't it be a lot of good for you? ”

Demoller is worthy of being the leader of the party, this kind of thing is analyzed very well, Su Xiao was silent when he heard it, but Alice was interested, and said excitedly: "Young master, I think Uncle Beard is right, let's catch up, that handsome uncle hasn't gone far yet!" ”

"You greedy girl, you can't learn well, and you can't learn crookedly!" Su Xiao knocked Alice's little head with a smile, and then said: "Although your sister and I are not rich and wealthy, we eat and drink every day without worrying, come and go whenever we want, isn't this kind of life good?" I admit that I can get status, status, money, and power by entering the court, but what use do these statuses, status, money, and rights do to me? For me, as long as you can be safe, as long as I can see you every day when I wake up, I am willing to be poor. ”

Hearing this, Alice was so moved that tears rolled in her eyes, hugged Su Xiao's arm tightly, and apologized sensibly: "Woo...... I'm sorry...... Whining...... I shouldn't talk back to the young master......"

Su smiled and said funny: "If an apology is useful, why do you need the police?" But for the sake of my little love, I'll forgive you this time! ”

When Su Xiao and his entourage arrived at the Silver Restaurant, it was the busiest time in the restaurant at noon, with the waiters performing their duties and the restaurant owner personally greeting them. Led by the restaurant owner, Su Xiao and the five of them walked into a separate private room, and when they looked at the door, Simon Malka, Alexander, and Kekeli were chatting inside.

"Klee!" The friendship between women will never be understood by men, and for this good sister who has not seen her for ten days, Chen Yaxuan took the initiative to send a loving hug.

Today, Kekeli took off her red armor and changed into a beige floral cloth skirt, a little less heroic and a little more gentle, hugging Chen Yaxuan together, it was really a beautiful landscape.

"Sister Kerry!" Seeing that Chen Yaxuan pounced, Alice also squeezed into the middle of the two of them like a joke, and said with a smile: "Sisters are so soft!" ”

Hearing this, a group of big men were embarrassed, Su Xiao quickly glared at Alice, and said in an undoubted tone: "Don't make trouble, come here." ”

I thought that Alice, who had just been humble a few minutes ago, would definitely be obedient, but it turned out to be much more than Su Xiao expected. I saw Alice throwing a wink at him in the arms of the two girls, and then hooked her fingers and said, "Come on, come on, the young master will definitely not dare to come!" I bet 1 gold coin, but the young master can't catch me! ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone laughed, and Alexander shouted even more evilly: "Raise!" I'll bet 5 coins! ”

Alexander's words were like some strange switch turned on, and as soon as he finished speaking, Simon Malka, Sugerman, and De Mole screamed indiscriminately!

"I'll bet 6 coins!"

"I'll bet 7 coins!"

"Actually, one by one, you can't do it?" De Moeller stepped on the table and chair and shouted domineeringly: "I'll bet 10 gold coins!" ”

Hearing that these people were actually gambling with their male dignity, Su Xiao was so angry that his apple muscles were twitching. Laughed angrily, directly kicked Alice out of the team, took out the ace flying knife and threw it casually, the terrible hit bonus made the knife body impartial Alice in the gap between the two girls' bodies, and then the shadow chain was pulled, and Alice, who was still trembling just now, fell into his hands in an instant!

"Dead girl, I'll teach you a lesson later!" Su Xiao glared at Alice viciously, and then pointed at the faces of the male animals in turn with the ace flying knife, and said treacherously: "I am willing to lose the bet, and take out the gold coins for me!" You 5, you 6, you 7, you 10, don't even think about running! ”

It's just shouting for fun, but I didn't expect it to suddenly become true, Alexander and Simon Marka have a lot of surplus food, and five or six gold coins are just a small matter, but Sugman and Demoller are different, especially Demoller, who roared 10 pieces of money, and now his face is green when he pulls out gold coins.

Seeing that they obediently paid the money, Su Xiao turned her gaze to Alice, and the girl trembled like chaff in fright, "Alice, it's your turn, take out the gold coins for me!" ”

Alice is a typical Plyushkin, and her three hobbies in her life are biting the young master, hugging her sister and saving private money, and it is more difficult for her to take out 1 gold coin than to ask Demoller to take out 100 gold coins.

Seeing that this 1 gold coin could not be saved, Alice's wealth obsessed soul still did not give up, only to see her look at Su Xiao pitifully with her big eyes flashing with the light of wisdom, and begged in a low voice: "Young master, even if you don't have our past love in your heart, for the sake of me helping you earn 28 gold coins, don't rob me of my gold coins, okay?" ”

"Not good!" No matter how beautiful the painting is, you will get tired if you look at it too much, Alice's delaying tactics Su Xiao has long been immune, stretched out her hands to grab her white and tender little face left and right, and said angrily and funny: "I have to let you have a long memory today!"
