Chapter 431: There is a specialization in the art industry
Since Oches tried to obtain a piece of land from it, he was tantamount to asking for one-third of the value of King Henry VI of England prepared by the Duke of Bedford, and if he could not talk about the conditions that the Duke of Bedford had just sent to the envoy to offer more than ten times, he was indeed not qualified to open such a big mouth.
If you want to get something, of course, you have to be ready to pay, which Zhao Gao understands better than anyone else, so he didn't think about it, so he gave Oakes the right to negotiate alone.
"My honorable master." Before leaving, Oakes was not in a hurry, he bowed deeply again, pointed to the corpses in the pit outside the camp, and said in a low voice, "If you don't mind, I want to take all those corpses, I believe that the bodies of these warriors left in the mortal world, our Duke of Bedford and the subjects of all Britain will definitely not be willing to give up." ”
"Huh?" Hearing Oakes's words, Zhao Fujin shook his head in disgust, and Fang Jingshu even turned his head to cover Henry VI's ears. It's okay to kill people and blow up the treasure chest, now they don't even let go of other people's corpses, and only Zhao Gao can do this kind of business of selling dead people.
Sure enough, as soon as he heard that it was profitable, Zhao Gao immediately became interested, and looked at the corpses in the big pit behind him excitedly, as if looking at a large pile of gold coins, and asked happily: "What price can this be sold for?" ”
"Don't dare to say anything else, a third of them can still be guaranteed when they are alive." Oakes patted his chest and said. This is his vote for Zhao Gao, since Zhao Gao has promised a territory, then he has to show the corresponding value.
"Oh?" Zhao Gao was taken aback, this number was beyond his imagination. If you calculate it by one-third, this income is very substantial. Not to mention anything else, Prince Philip and the Earl of Warwick are worth a lot of money, and a third of them are worth a lot, but a good territory is definitely worth it.
"These are all heroes who sacrificed their lives for the national battle...... Oaks only said half a sentence, and Zhao Gao understood.
He fell into the mistake of thinking, and subconsciously thought that these people were killed by him as prisoners. This kind of dishonorable killing is only hatred and contempt for Zhao Gao for the forces behind the plot characters, and they will definitely not spend a lot of money to redeem these shameful evidence.
But this is not the case in "facts", after the "polishing" of the plot world, these people all died on the battlefield. Then there is nothing to say, whether it is the royal family or their families, they will be proud of them, and there is no resentment towards Zhao Gao, after all, dying on the battlefield is the fate of a hero in itself. Ransom the remains of one's "hero" from the enemy and give them a dignified funeral is not only a sign of respect for those who have returned to heaven, but also a great thing that brings glory to the living.
For the sake of this "glory", it is within the range of affordability to pay such a small price.
A wise man must make a mistake in a thousand thoughts, and even a person like Zhao Gao is difficult to avoid missing something in his thinking. Especially in a blind spot like this, you don't know what you're missing out on without being reminded by others.
"I'm looking forward to your trip." Zhao Gao, who had figured it out, sighed loudly, and then gave Oaks an encouraging look, and a contract was quickly concluded.
"You promised the character Oakes the freedom to choose his own territory of Aberdeen on the terms of negotiation, and this reward will be deducted from your earnings.
You promised that you would not kill Oakes in this scenario world in any way, or you would receive the negative title 'Treacherous'.
Oakes will negotiate for you at least three times the terms offered by Duke Bedford, otherwise the first two conditions will be null and void! ”
This contract is carried out under the notarization of the land of the gods and the plot world, and it has an extraordinary binding force on Zhao Gao and Oaks, which can be regarded as a guarantee for Zhao Gao to let Oakes go.
Sure enough, Oakes, who had received the actual guarantee, immediately lifted his spirits. He deliberately tore the clothes on his body to shreds, and even smeared some blood stains on various parts of his body, and rolled on the ground twice by the way, and the dust and dark brown blood immediately wrapped him. When he got up again, a tragic and heroic temperament actually emerged spontaneously, which made people unconsciously awe-inspired.
What a fucking talent!
If it weren't for the fact that people with this kind of personality were extremely difficult to be subdued, Zhao Gao would want to take Oaks under his command. There is such a faceless and skinless existence that does what it looks like, and it will be a lot more convenient to deal with the characters in the plot and do anything.
"Honorable master, I'm going, please wait for good news." There was no trace of obscenity and funny on Oakes, he bowed slightly and made a noble salute, and after Zhao Gao signaled, he turned around and walked out of the king's tent.
At the same time, he began to order some of the knight captives of the Guards to dress up the corpses one by one, and put them on the carts that were supposed to be used for supplies.
The cars were padded with soft mats, and the corpses were surrounded by flowers as much as possible. These are not particularly bright flowers, and some are even a small pale flower that can be seen everywhere in the field, just like this, trampled down with dewdrops, and placed alone next to the face of the "hero", looking inexplicably solemn and solemn.
He was not in a hurry, and arranged the details to perfection little by little, and dozens of corpses tossed for a long time before one by one, they were drawn by the war horses of the royal knights' camp and slowly walked towards the camp of Duke Bedford.
"If I didn't know what was going on, I would have almost been tricked by this guy."
Zhao Fujin watched all this happen in amazement, and in the end, even her emotions were a little infected. The surrounding Guards Knights, who were blocked by the real facts of the plot world, showed reverence that spread from the bottom of their hearts, making Oakes and his party tragic and heroic with the glory of returning heroes.
"There is a specialization in the art industry!" Zhao Gao and Low sighed again. Even if he could think of it, he would never be able to do such a scene. This is no longer ability, but the talent of a politician, he paused, and then said, "I am afraid that our gains this time are much more than we expected." ”
Zhao Fujin and Fang Jingshu looked at the back of the distant convoy and nodded thoughtfully.
The camp where the Duke of Bedfu was stationed was not far from this side, and it was only a matter of moments before the sound of a cannon salute could be heard in the distance.
As if the cannon roared like a giant beast one after another, Zhao Gao could already imagine that kind of scene: the civil and military ministers led by Duke Bedev were lined up on both sides, bowing together to welcome the return of the hero. The leading court earl Oakes had a sad face, and from his face, it was clear that he endured humiliation and secretly lived for the sake of the overall situation, and he had to be loyal to the king regardless of his reputation. The surrounding officials and soldiers were moved by this spirit, and took off their hats to greet him, but our protagonist Oakes was unmoved, and just walked forward step by step with the carriage of Prince Philip's corpse.
No one had any grievances, and the tribute to Oakes was no less than that of those "heroes" who lay there.
Forty-one salutes, one hundred and one step escort, this is already the etiquette to the king, Oakes finally finished the performance perfectly, as for the rest of the matter, Zhao Gao was too lazy to care, because then the list that replaced the original ransom in front of him made Zhao Gao, who had seen the world, swallow a mouthful of saliva greatly.
PS: I'm wondering if I should keep a watch until noon tomorrow, or whether it's going to be changed now.
