346 Merchants join the army
"Grand Duke Kanter? Is there still Grand Duke Kanter now? ”
In a word, Hank's face directly turned the color of pig liver, yes, although he had been in Kante City, he did not know the fact that Artim had been dead for a long time until the army of Siri entered the city. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
"Well, since you said the Grand Duke of Kanter, then let's settle accounts with the rules of the Grand Duke of Kante. Hank's title, all kinds of evidence show that you seem to have donated a title with 100,000 gold coins, and you haven't paid a copper plate tax, right? ”
"Yes, yes! I did take the money out to become a nobleman. But I've made a hundred thousand gold coins. Hmph, it should be able to cover a lot of taxes, right? ”
Hank was cold, he had already begun to realize that the Ciri in front of him was not only impossible to fool, but also quite difficult to deal with. Of course, there was one last illusion in his heart, that is, Ciri still paid attention to the so-called righteous name, although it was rumored in the market for a while that he was the right choice of the Grand Duke of Kante, and even the widow of the original Grand Duke Pombert now stood up to prove it for him. But the Atims are all dead, so is it possible to dig out the old accounts of a dead man?
Hank thought very well, but he didn't expect that after hearing his words, Ciri actually smiled slightly. There was no thunderous outburst of annoyance, and there was no delay in scolding, he just threw out a storage ring!
That's right, it's a storage ring, Hank is a big businessman, how can he not even tell the storage ring? And he also recognized that you were extremely skilled in making the connection of this ring. The technical quality of the storage ring represents the storage space of the storage ring. A bare ring is already worth a lot!
"Your Excellency, ...... you"
"Didn't you say that your predecessor Artim received 100,000 gold coins from you? Now, I'll spend 100,000 gold coins plus a storage ring to redeem the title he gave you. ”
Ciri waved his hand expressionlessly, and a waiter stepped forward directly and handed Hank a piece of paper, the content of which was nothing more than his agreement to Ciri to exchange money for a knighthood. But that's not right! Since ancient times, it has always been a merchant who gave money to the nobles, but now, it has become the nobles to give money to the merchants?
"Why, I'm willing to put up with the bad things that Artim did, and you still have hesitation?"
The unhappy scolding made Hank tremble like being struck by lightning! At this moment, he thought a lot, thinking of the orders that he couldn't earn, and thinking of the big businessmen who usually either relied on him or had something to do with him...... But in the end, this guy, who has always been the most greedy, still controlled his greed.
"No, my lord, I don't mean to be disrespectful!"
Regardless of the confession, Hank threw away the ring in his hand as if his hands were hot.
"My lord, since you respect His Majesty Artim...... Archduke, but will you allow me to consider it......"
100,000 gold coins, even for the richest man in the city, is quite a lot of money! But Hank's face bloomed with the most brilliant smile. He found that he seemed to understand the young count's mind. At the same time, because of this, he changed his previous fears, and developed a double sense of contempt and importance for Ciri.
Despised because he felt that Ciri was the same as those nobles who wanted to save face and suffer crimes! Even if you want to kill it, as long as the other party is blocked by the cloak of a nobleman, you don't dare to do it openly! Attention, is that he feels more and more determined to get rid of himself in the other party! Want to spend money to erase my title of nobility, and then find a reason to deal with me, there is no door! No matter how your subordinates are, they have to face the mountain of knives or the sea of fire!
"My lord, since you are not short of money, I think we should continue to respect the will of Grand Duke Atim, right? Hehe, besides, I can also buy a treasure for myself, as long as I succeed in becoming a hero, you see......"
"It's fine."
Another unexpected, I didn't expect that Xirui didn't dwell on this issue at all. "Since you are a nobleman of Cantor City, and I am the lord of Cantor City. Tomorrow, you will come to my barracks and report. The Earl of Valente died so miserably, and I have no reason for him to remain in the hands of a group of rebels. When the time comes, I hope you will contribute more to the army! ”
After saying that, Ciri waved his hand and directly asked Hank to step back. In this regard, Hank of course couldn't stay away from this aristocrat full of variables, but unfortunately he didn't know that Seeri's military regulations and training were notoriously harsh. Not to mention that he can't stand those cruel cultivation at all, even if he can. Compared to the official. Dealers. field, the army is indeed a very simple place. But in the army, it is more direct than anywhere else to kill a person!
The warm spring sun shone on the earth, the birds were singing, and the flowers were blooming, and on such a bright spring day, a group of great merchants in gorgeous armor finally arrived at the military camp on the outskirts of Kanter, where Karl used to train and where Count Ciri's men were now training. There seems to be no difference between military training and military training. However, when Hank appeared in front of this huge barracks, he always gave people a sense of nondescriptry.
Karl's soldiers wore green devil steel armor, and Cyri's army wore Hulk lizard leather armor. Hank and the others have long known about this, after all, these days, the West Swiss soldiers maintain order in the city every day, and they all see it really. However, it is not decent, and this is why it comes from. The leather armor worn by Ciri's officers came from Ciri himself and the few weapons shops he designated, and it was all uniform in terms of workmanship and color. Although those merchants and nobles also had leather armor of the same texture, they were inlaid with gold and silver one by one, for fear that others would not be able to see their financial resources!
However, in front of this solemn army barracks, these bells and whistles not only do not show the so-called noble "identity" of these people, but are more like clowns! Looking at their speech and demeanor, they are even more incompatible with the rigorous and solemn troops!
However, these so-called nobles did not care, perhaps thinking that they could be saved, and they even ordered their servants to prop up their sunshades and soft chairs, and lie comfortably on them with the drink and wine invented by Count Ciri.
Among them, Hank, who is the leader, is also one of these merchant aristocrats. But although he was also lying on the soft chair and drinking wine, there was always a sense of worry in his eyes. Afraid that Siri is deliberately embarrassing them in the army? In the past, they were ordinary people, so they were naturally afraid, but now they are also heroes, even if they are suppressed, they are not afraid! In addition, he and the so-called nobles who came this time are not good babies. Scoundrels play with their hearts, a top expert! (To be continued.) )
