Chapter 19: The Cunning Militia Leader
"It can't be!" Charlotte suddenly lowered her voice. Pen Γ fun Γ Pavilion www. ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ γ ο½ο½ο½ο½
"If you insist, I will not be able to give you a document that will allow you to escape military service." Durant looked cold. "Guess who has more to lose? If you are not convinced, you can go to the military headquarters and sue me. β
"Everything else can be discussed, I really can't do the fantasy match thing!" Charlotte's attitude softened, and he lowered his voice, but everyone present could clearly hear his words, "Fantasy matches are contraband, not to mention that you want the purest kind." If I get caught by the guards, I'm going to lose my head! β
"Come on, Charlotte, don't fool me with such words." Durant raised his feet higher, and he looked disdainful, "I, Durant, am not a fool, you were one of the first profiteers in Copenhagen to flip fantasy matches, and you made a fortune with this thing." Although you were whitewashed before the royal ban was issued, who would believe that you really broke with the past? After all, the demand for fantasy matches is unlimited, whether it is a greedy careerist or a lazy person who likes to work hard, they can't do without this thing in their lives. β
"As for the Guardβ" Durant sneered, "After the new king ascends the throne, the Guardhouse has become a place for those fools to make money and mix up their qualifications, how can they have time to track down the fantasy match dealers who violate the ban?" I'm not afraid to tell you that it's not that I want to fantasize about matches, but that the commander of the Royal Third Legion wants. β
Charlotte immediately changed color, "Is it Captain Anderson?" How could he-"
"Stay in that kind of place, and if I say it, I'm going crazy in less than a month. What's more, the current soldiers of the Third Legion are no longer strong-willed knights, there are only prisoners and thieves, and those who are unlucky outcasts. As he said this, Durant casually looked at Xue Yuan and Luna. For those faithless wastes, there's nothing more morale-stabilizing than fantasy matches. But you know that once you have used fantasy matches, the demand will be stronger, and you will need more pure fantasy matches. Now only the purest fantasy matches can satisfy the soldiers of the Third Legion, and if it is just ordinary fantasy matches, there are small dolls in the West Market carrying a basket to sell there, and I don't need to spend a few thousand boxes to get it. But I only want the purest now, so I can only find you. β
Xue Yuan felt that he had some hair on his body, the "fantasy matches" that the two guys in front of him were talking about sounded like ****** drugs like methamphetamine, could it be that the little girl who sold matches was actually a little drug dealer?
"The purest fantasy match is not the same thing as an ordinary fantasy match." Charlotte's hand trembling as she grabbed her cane, "Even when my business was at its biggest, I didn't come and handle it that much. β
"It's not a lot, it's just 1,000 boxes." Durant took back the leg that was on the table, and the rough-looking man showed the insidiousness and shrewdness of a snake, "Think about it, with 1,000 boxes of fantasy matches of the highest purity, you can get out of that damn military service, do you need me to tell you about the mortality rate of active duty soldiers?" Now that the kingdom is at war everywhere, the recruiters won't let go of someone as skilled as you Charlotte. You don't want to die on the battlefield senselessly, do you? Then go and get me the goods, you don't have to think about the payment, someone will reimburse you, the Royal Third Legion has money. β
Charlotte's voice was a little dry, "But if I get caught, I'm dead!" β
"Didn't you bring two more with you? Can you just let them do it? Seeing that Charlotte showed signs of relenting, Durant continued to hit the railroad while it was hot, "The two of them are homeless~ I can see it." Think about it, isn't it normal for two homeless people to take risks and sell high-purity fantasy matches? Right? Actually, there is no risk to you in this matter, you just need to be bolder, dear Charlotte. β
Durant raised a piece of parchment on the table, "Look, I have prepared your special contribution certificate for you." You're not going to let me down, are you? β
Charlotte clutched the scepter in her hand, stared at the parchment and swallowed fiercely......
