"Hahahaha......"

King David's laughter echoed throughout the banquet hall.

It also echoes in the hearts of all the brute dragons.

Even Wen Zilong, who was observing all this in the room in the distance, sounded a little frightened.

When a person is forcibly suppressing the pain and anger in his heart, the laughter that comes out can really make the ghosts and gods feel terrified.

"You...... What to laugh at? ”

The first red cloud asked, looking frightened.

King David did not answer immediately.

His laughter continues.

It wasn't until more than two minutes later that his laughter faded away.

"I, the David family, have worked hard for the city that never sleeps for generations. As long as it is promised to the civilians, it will never break its promise. Moreover, the corpses have already been distributed to the people this time, how can they be recovered? ”

The fear on the face of the first red cloud receded slightly, and he said coldly:

"The king also thought that the lord of the city had compassion for the people, and it was possible that the corpse of the barbarian dragon would be distributed to the people. So the king also said that if the corpse has already been divided, then it is okay to replace it with a brute dragon coin. ”

After saying that, he looked at King David with interest.

He had already seen that as an envoy, King David would not dare to do anything to him.

This time, King David did not laugh again, but smiled.

He smiled and asked:

"How many dragon coins does the king want?"

The first red cloud gently fanned his mouth and nose with a square handkerchief, and said:

"Lord Castle, watch your words. It's not the king who 'wants', it's the kingdom that needs. The kingdom needs to call 100 million Barbarian Dragon Coins from you, it should be no problem, right? ”

When all the high-level officials heard this, a flash of anger flashed in their eyes.

100 million Barbarian Dragon Coins, which is equivalent to the income of their Sleepless City for two years.

The city that never sleeps is in the bitter cold of the far north.

For seven months of the year, there is snow and ice, and there are no vegetation and few fierce beasts.

In addition, the main body of the city is sympathetic to the people, and the tax received in a year is not much.

So if you're lucky, you have an income of fifty or sixty million Barbarian Dragon coins a year.

If you're unlucky, I'm afraid it's only 20 or 30 million a year.

Now the king is a lion with a big mouth, and he will ask for 100 million barbarian dragon coins at a time, which is really too much to bully the barbarian dragon!

Of course, everyone also understands that since the king has already planted spies here, he must know that the barbarian dragons of this city that never sleeps, and the Tiansu Empire has hatred.

However, the king did not destroy the city that never sleeps, but made it a highly autonomous place.

Because if you destroy the city that never sleeps, you have to send people to take care of it.

And if it is not destroyed, it can still get tens of millions of taxes from here every year.

After the city that never sleeps paid the taxes, the city treasury was basically empty.

If you want to raise soldiers, it is simply impossible.

So naturally it is impossible to rebel.

In this way, the city that never sleeps is equivalent to an ATM.

Mentioning it once a year is really cool for the kingdom.

It's just that this time, they asked for 100 million at once, which is too ruthless.

All the barbarian dragons could already imagine how angry the city lord was in his heart.

He could explode at any moment.

Once it breaks out, then next, there will be a big war.

And the result of this great battle, there is no doubt that the city that never sleeps will be destroyed.

However, the more likely outcome is that the city that never sleeps will be breached again and surrendered again.

That would not only give the kingdom more money, but also kill a lot of dragons.

However, even if this were the case, they would follow the lord until he died.

Just as the drums were beating in everyone's hearts, the city lord finally spoke.

With a big smile on his face, he said:

"Although our annual income is only about 50 million. But the kingdom needs it, so we don't sleep in the city to smash pots and sell iron, and we have to make it up. ”

When First Hongyun heard this, he was slightly relieved in his heart.

This time the king gave the task, he knew it would be difficult.

I didn't expect the city lord to agree so easily, which saved me a lot of trouble.

Of course, the city lord promised so easily, there may be some other reason for this, and there may be fraud.

But it doesn't matter, as long as the 100 million Barbarian Dragon Coins are in hand, you can bring them back and pay the difference.

When the time comes, whether there is fraud or not, it is not your own problem.

And aren't there still undercover agents in this city?

At that time, the undercover agent will continue to send the news of the city that never sleeps back to the royal city.

Even if there is fraud, Wang Cheng should easily deal with it.

At the same time, he was a little disappointed in the lord of the city, King David.

I have always heard that this King David is a man who stands up to the sky, but today it seems that he is just a cowardly child.

But on the other hand, if you continue to fight against the kingdom, there is only one way out.

If you change it, you have to be a little cowardly.

Thinking of this, his chin raised a little higher.

He fanned his mouth and nose with a square handkerchief, and said:

"It's business, and then it's a private matter."

"Private?"

King David was a little puzzled, and did not know what private matters this envoy had when he came to his remote city that never sleeps.

The square handkerchief in the hand of the first red cloud stopped fanning, and the smile on his face gradually disappeared.

said: "My family is the first family in Shattered Star City. You've probably heard of this, right? ”

King David nodded:

"The first family of Shattered Star City, in the nearby cities, is considered to be famous, of course I have heard of it."

First Red Cloud went on to say:

"A few months ago, our first family in Shattered Star City was wiped out."

Speaking of which, the square handkerchief in his hand was pinched by him and there was a faint smell of burning.

Then, without waiting for King David to answer, he continued:

"A month ago, I got the news that the first family of our family was killed by a group of winged rhinos and a horned python. By the way, there is also Si Hong, the city lord of Shattered Star City. And they all obeyed the orders of a deformed brute, a deformed brute with wings. ”

His gaze swept over every high-level person present.

"This brute dragon is in your city that never sleeps right now."

No one answered.

However, he had already gotten the answer from the faces of these brute dragons, from their gazes.

Finally, he turned his head to King David:

"City Lord?"

King David's face changed slightly, and he laughed:

"In our city that never sleeps, there were indeed winged rhinoceros and horned pythons before, but with the defeat of the fierce beasts, they have also disappeared into the forest and snow fields.

As for the deformed dragon that you said about the flying deformed brute dragon, it has long since disappeared with the disappearance of those fierce beasts. ”

All the barbarian dragons were shocked and turned their heads to look at the city lord.

The lord of the castle is talking nonsense with his eyes open.

Everyone knows that Master Wu is now in the City Lord's Mansion.

Sure enough, the voice of the first red cloud came again:

"Are you sure?"

"Of course."

King David, the lord of the city, laughed.

The complexion of the first red cloud has sunk:

"But I heard that there is a deformed brute dragon in the castle lord's mansion right now, and it is a deformed brute dragon with wings and can fly. Can you let me see it? ”
