Chapter 0177: Link's Fortune Plan (Third Update)
[Thanks to the support of 'Xiaoyao Sigh_Tianzhu', 'mcjht121', and 'Hu Xiaoder', the old wine is full of motivation and must be ......]
Late at night. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
Link yawned, and said calmly to the two heroes who were reporting to Zhu Wu and Xiao Rang:
"Actually, the two of you can decide these things on your own, and you don't have to ask for advice on everything."
Zhu Wu and Xiao Rang glanced at each other, for such a long time, they could be regarded as understanding the true nature of their lord, not to mention anything else, just saying that this point is not suspicious, it is enough to make people have a sense of death for those who are confidants.
Therefore, Zhu Wu and Xiao Rang nodded at the same time and decided to leave.
After all, Link needs to rest too!
But just as the two were about to walk out of the door, Link seemed to suddenly come to his senses and asked:
"Mr. Xiao, haven't asked yet? How many coins do we have now? ”
Xiao Rang's face immediately sank, and he came back to Link and bowed down and said:
"My lord, if you have a large amount of expenses in the future, even if you don't need my approval, you have to tell me! For example, this time, you directly handed over Charlotte 1 million gold coins, resulting in only 500,000 gold coins left in our current liquidity.
Moreover, because the enemy has blocked the Red River valley and the area ahead of the victory road, we have now completely lost our business channels, and even have some difficulty making ends meet.
Of course, we brethren can do without salaries, but those ordinary soldiers, craftsmen, and peasants must not completely exploit them with red mouths and white teeth! If we really act like this, what is the difference between us and those corrupt officials?
……”
In the end, Xiao Rang summed up his speech in one sentence:
"There is no money, and moreover, there will be no money in a month."
Xiao Rang's hard words made Link have to smile bitterly, originally he was still thinking of summoning other unlocked heroes to sacrifice, obviously, the current Hope Leader is simply not enough to support it, so, where does the huge gold coin come from?
There is only one way, and that is to plunder outward, and in this way, the Hope Leader will be surrounded by enemies on all sides, and can only helplessly embark on the road of expansion.
In the end, Link could only sigh helplessly, that mysterious voice really wanted to guide himself on this road of death if he didn't fight!
Zhu Wu and Xiao Rang said goodbye and left, and Link also shook his head, ready to rest.
At this moment, Bai Sheng sneaked into the council hall, and his hesitant appearance made Link couldn't help but laugh and scolded:
"Say, what's the matter?"
Bai Sheng swallowed his saliva, and then, seeing that there was no one around, he whispered to Link:
"My lord, do you have something to say about those two captives?"
Link was stunned for a moment, and then suddenly realized:
"You mean Ted and Thomas, what, what noble covenants are they still emphasizing?"
Bai Sheng shook his head and said in a low voice:
"No, since Ambassador Li Li staged an example of a trial before them, they have not mentioned the Covenant of Nobility. However, this time they allowed us to release them back, not to the coalition, but to escort them to their respective territories. ”
Link looked at Bai Sheng speechlessly, but thinking of the two noble viscounts he had seen, he also knew that the nobles of this world had long been decayed, and if it weren't for the powerful military power they still had, the Empire of Light would have been in flames.
However, even an idiot understands that you can't release your captives at will!
Bai Sheng saw Link's eyes and knew that the lord was about to come to a conclusion, so he hurriedly added:
"They said they were willing to pay a huge ransom."
Link smiled playfully and asked:
"How much?"
Bai Sheng stretched out a hand, opened his mouth exaggeratedly, and said in a low voice:
"A million."
Link stood up and asked excitedly:
"A million per person, so much?"
Bai Sheng's face was embarrassed, and he immediately shook his hand again and again:
"My lord, it's a million for two people."
Link stood up and paced down the hall, weighing in his heart, and finally, he said to Bai Sheng:
"Alright! We can release them, and we can even send agents to escort them back to their respective territories, but they must each hand over a million gold coins, and the failure to spread the coalition among the top is all due to Morinin. ”
Bai Sheng's face was overjoyed, and he nodded:
"Yes, my lord's idea is good, I'll go find them now."
Then, Bai Sheng disappeared directly with a flicker, obviously, since Link used his card possession on the Taiping Pass to use a magical power similar to teleportation, his use of his own three-star trait [Mirror] has become more and more perfect.
When no one was around, Link couldn't help but clap his hands happily and smiled happily:
"Yes, someone sent a pillow when I fell asleep, it's a windfall!"
Then, he thought in his heart, even if the two noble viscounts were unwilling to take out one million gold coins each, at least about one and a half million would still be able to knock on their hands, so that the four heroes unlocked by the ultimate territory mission: Grimace-Du Xing, Tiger General-Li Zhong, Xiaobawang-Zhou Tong, and Jinyan Biao-Shi En can be summoned.
Moreover, each of the four has a maximum of 300,000, which is 1.2 million, and there is still a balance of 340,000.
"Three or four hundred thousand, a little little!"
Link remembered the huge amount of gold that needed to be upgraded for a certain building, but he couldn't help but shake his head and gritted his teeth:
"Yes, one million two hundred thousand plus five hundred thousand, at least one million and seven hundred thousand gold coins will knock them out, and I don't believe it, two old nobles who are as timid as rats will not be able to take out less than two million gold coins. What's more, these two guys both occupy important positions in their respective families. ”
These are not from any intelligence system, since the two viscounts Ted and Thomas were captured, they were afraid that these heretics would directly put them on the gallows, so they directly poured water into the bamboo tube and said a lot, nothing more than how they were in their respective territories, how important they were in their respective families, and finally summed it up in one sentence, that is-
We have a lot of money and stupidity, come and ask for a ransom!
Since this is the case, then don't knock on nothing, Link smiled coldly, and when he was about to laugh heartily, he felt cold all over, and then, the weapon card in the card album - the legendary weapon card [Annihilation] suddenly shone brightly, and at the same time, an inexplicable oppressive force filled his surroundings.
Then, without waiting for him to utter a single call, he disappeared from the chamber, and then the space in the chamber was reassembled as if everything was unscathed.
In a moment, Link was already in an inexplicable bright space, and a figure was high up, looking down at Link, and said indifferently:
"The dream of counting money until your hands cramps are broken, Lord Link must be furious, right?"
