"So, why did you come to me, can you please explain this question in detail?"

Lagoon, the Lord's Residence.

This official residence, which usually looks very opulent, is now a little bleak and ...... Rundown.

The heavily fenced horses at the gates and the soldiers who were constantly patrolling the city showed the city's instability at the moment. This unstable situation was naturally reflected in the viscount, who had always been very polite.

The current Viscount Norris still wears a gorgeous aristocratic costume with a top hat. However, wearing this kind of formal dress in his own home has fully demonstrated the somewhat shaky self-esteem in his heart.

From this point of view, this riot really tortured him a lot.

The Poison Needle was now standing beside the Viscount, looking at the Mermaid Song in front of him with a very wary gaze. It seems that as long as his master gives an order, he can immediately pounce on it and fight for his life, and tear the mermaid song to pieces.

Arrow also saw the eyes of the poison needle and several other guards, and couldn't help but smile, and said, "First of all, I am grateful to His Excellency the Viscount for being able to open the rejection horse and let me in. It is a privilege for me to have the trust of His Excellency the Viscount at such an extraordinary time. ”

Viscount Norris wasn't in that good mood to laugh.

Or rather, at a time like this, he didn't even bother to pretend to be a little more pretentious, and said directly: "You mermaid song is wearing a scarf, and you look like someone will recognize you sneakily in front of my mansion and say that you want to see me, I don't think you are idle and want to see me. ”

Arrow nodded, the smile on his face was still very decent: "Since that's the case, then I'll just say it." Viscount Norris, even though we have fought each other several times, this competition has cost us a lot of money. But now, I'd love to work with you. ”

"Cooperation? Looking for me? ”

A sneer flowed from Viscount Norris's face, as if he had heard a very unfunny joke-

"I didn't expect to one day be able to work with the 'smart, powerful, and invincible President Eero Garcia'. And don't tell me you're completely unaware. The Honey Jar's Mole Incident...... Hehe, it's related to you, right? ”

Arrow also laughed and said, "As an enemy who wants to wipe out my Mermaid Song, this kind of small revenge and response shouldn't be nothing, right?" ”

"Good! Sure enough, it's you! You bastard!!! ”

When the poisonous needle next to him heard that Arrow now admitted, he was naturally furious and was about to explode! But before he could take a step, he suddenly saw that Viscount Norris on the side did not react, and after thinking about it, the assassin still endured it, took a step back, and returned to his position to stand.

It was also because of the return of the poison needle that Brad and Cream, who were standing in front of Arrow, slowly retreated to their original positions, and once again let their own president face the viscount.

Arrow continued to laugh and said, "Your Excellency the Viscount is very clever, and it really makes no sense to lie in front of you. ”

Viscount Norris snorted coldly and said slowly: "You admit it, that's okay." It's just that can you tell me why you have harmed me the way I am now, why you are running to me with a straight face, and then say a word that you need my help. You wouldn't be so naïve as to think that if you say that, I'll help you right away, right? Truth be told, it's okay for me to order the soldiers to wipe out all of your Mermaid Songs right now. ”

Arrow laughed out loud, a smile full of self-confidence that made Norris on the other side seem a little cautious.

It wasn't until Arrow finished laughing that he grimaced and said coldly, "You, what are you laughing at." ”

Arrow wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes, shook his head, and said, "Oh, Viscount Norris, you're still asking me." If you heard such a funny thing, you would have laughed too, right? I'm really sorry, I may not have such a high level of education, so I smiled a little abruptly. ”

Norris didn't say much about it. He was silent, as if waiting for the short man to continue.

After adjusting his mentality a little, Airo exhaled and said, "Then back to our previous topic, why do I think Your Excellency the Viscount will come to help me?" Well, it's actually quite simple. Because...... You're going to do everything you can to contain our Merfolk Song for some reason, right? In order to achieve this goal, even at a loss, right? ”

As soon as this sentence came out, the members of the Mermaid Song behind them all showed surprised expressions.

Similarly, the members of the honey pot behind Viscount Norris, especially the poison needle, were now surprised.

Viscount Norris lowered his head and thought about it, but he didn't show his attitude: "What exactly do you want to say?" ”

Seeing that this viscount was still strictly guarding his secrets, Arrow couldn't help but admire a little, nodded and said, "No matter what, if your purpose is to curb our mermaid song to make money, then it is absolutely impossible for you to implement this kind of military procurement of iron products." Because this kind of behavior will only make Mermaid Song make money faster, which can be said to be the opposite of your idea of containment. ”

"It is precisely because you are absolutely impossible to be the one who is carrying out this economic warfare that I am able to come here to seek your help. And you, the viscount, also have this obligation to help Pelican Town and the other three towns survive this economic war. ”

Norris snorted coldly, he shook his head slightly, and said slowly, "What you said is really funny. Even if I don't like your mermaid song, then if someone wants to deal with you and Pelican Town, what obligation do I have? Is it just that I appointed the mayors of these three towns? ”

Arrow shook his head and said with a smile: "Legally speaking, of course, you also have the obligation to assist in the security and management of these three towns. Of course, this is only from a legal point of view. Although the taxes of these three towns will be concentrated in Lagoon City, they will also be paid to the national treasury, so you, as a lord, will only play a role of management, and there are no specific obligations. ”

"But, on the other hand, you do have an obligation to help these three towns break through this economic war. That's ...... The existence of our mermaid song. ”

Norris's brow furrowed slightly, but he didn't speak.

Arrow continued to laugh and said, "It is because of the existence of our Mermaid Song, if this economic war continues and the sales of iron products are not curbed by anything, then our Mermaid Song can raise a lot of money by selling a large number of iron products in a very short period of time!" I guess it's not what you want to see if we can make so much money in Mermaid Song, right? ”

Hearing Arrow say this, Norris couldn't help but lower his head and think carefully about the problem. After a while, he asked, "How much time do you think it will take to earn 1,000 gold in the Mermaid Song?" ”

Arrow smiled and stretched out three fingers: "Three months, in fact, it may be shorter." If you don't help, after three months, Merfolk Song can go to another city to open a chapter with the 1,000 gold you earn. When the time comes, your plan to stop us from making a lot of money in Mermaid Song will be in vain~~~"

The viscount's brow furrowed, and he lowered his head again in thought.

At this moment, the poison needle behind him looked at his master, and then looked at Arrow here. After waiting for a while, seeing that Norris still didn't mean to speak, he couldn't help but feel a little anxious, and directly stepped forward and said, "President Mermaid!" What vicious conspiracy are you planning? ”

As for the poisonous needle, Arrow didn't have any special antipathy.

After all, who would have an aversion to someone who would always guess their traps?

At that moment, Arrow showed him a very gentle smile and said slowly, "Conspiracy? How do you say that? Poison Needle, you must be thinking too much. ”

The poison needle was a little reluctant, he glanced at his master again, and seeing that Norris still didn't speak, he couldn't help but say nervously: "You still say that I think too much?" Because it's simply not possible! You short man, don't think you've been reading for a few years and you're amazing! It's too unsound if you want to deceive people, right? If you really say this, then if our Viscount and you join forces, the final result will only be that you have no way to continue making money! I'm not stupid! How could a normal person come up with such a strange way to block their own financial path? ”

Arrow nodded slightly, in admiration for the Assassin's loyalty to his master. After all, no matter how bad this kind of thing is, it is the most successful ploy of the enemy. But loyalty can make people feel at ease.

Regarding the problem of the poisonous needle, the cream in the back also took a step forward, snorted coldly and laughed: "I said that the poisonous needle will grow, you can't help but underestimate our president, right?" Our president did this entirely to save these three towns. It's for the townspeople. What is like you? All day long only thinking about harming people and making black money, even if you really have the slightest mentality of wanting to think about the people of Pelican Town, you won't make it to the point where your Honeypot Guild can't open in Pelican Town at all. ”

The flesh at the corner of the poison needle's mouth twitched, and he was a little annoyed for a while. But no matter how angry he was, he couldn't refute it directly, so he could only pout his lips like this and stop talking.
