An Long Cohen has not appeared in front of him until now, and in Liu Jian's opinion, there can only be two reasons.

The first is that at first, An Long Cohen really just wanted to swallow his three hundred war horses, but as the situation develops, An Long Cohen may rise up with Lü Buwei's strange and habitable thoughts, and want to invest like Lü Buwei invested in Yiren during the Warring States Period

Myself.

But the likelihood is almost nil.

If An Longkorn really had such courage and insight, he would not simply choose to swallow Liu Jian's three hundred war horses at the beginning, and he would not have come to see him until now. You must know that sending charcoal in the snow is always better

The icing on the cake is difficult, and the benefits are much greater. Even in two different worlds, similar human beings will always have similar thinking patterns. And Anroncohen's performance after seeing him is not at all like he has such huge ambitions and long-term vision

of people.

As it turned out, he was just a profit-hungry businessman, the kind of typical businessman who would sell a hanged noose for a high price.

So there is only one explanation for Aaron Cohen who dared to come to him at this time.

He didn't want to come.

But he had to come.

"Aaron Cohen said directly. Which governor seized your family, kidnapped your wife, imprisoned your son, sealed off all your possessions, and then put a sword around your neck. That's why you have to show up in front of me with a gift? ”

"I marvel at your wisdom, great Titankao." Anronkorn said bitterly and helplessly.

He was indeed forced.

It was no one else who forced him to come, it was the governor of the city-state of Kohor.

As the governor of Kohor, one of the nine city-states of the Free Trade Alliance. Even the goods brought by Aaron Cohen this time were actually prepared with the help of the Governor. Otherwise. With Aaron Cohen's ability, he can't actually get his hands on so many weapons. Even if it can be obtained, it will definitely not be as sophisticated as the current batch.

All because in Kohor, the Governor really couldn't find a person who had dealt with Liu Jian and was suitable as an envoy.

Kohor, one of the nine city-states of free trade, is the only city-state in history to have defeated the Dothraki in a head-to-head battle with the Dothraki of Kao. Four hundred years ago, the Dothraki who appeared on horseback from the east were led by Temocao

He burned and looted until he was under the walls of Kohor when he was stopped and defeated by the 3,000 warriors of Kohor, who had spent a lot of money on the Unsullied from Astapor, and Temocao died in the war.

To this day, the City Watch force of Kohor is composed entirely of the Unsullied. And they all hung a bunch of human hair on their spears to commemorate the heroic deeds of the three thousand warriors of Kohor who defeated the Dothraki four hundred years ago.

However, even if Kohor is not afraid to fight the Dothrakis, that doesn't mean they like to fight the Dothrakis.

The Unsullied were very expensive, and in order to be able to buy the three thousand elite Innocents from Astapor, the then Governor of Kohor took out most of his savings, and as a result, after the First World War, only 600 of the 3,000 Unsullied remained, and they all brought them with them

Injure. After the war, Kohor, who no longer had the slightest sense of trust in the Bright Banner Regiment and the Second Son Regiment who had betrayed the contract and fled, as well as all the mercenary groups, wanted to replenish the city defense forces that had been lost in this war. Chose to buy five thousand again

Unsullied, this time His Royal Highness the Doge emptied his own pockets, and the last copper plate in the vault was sent to Astapor.

Although the presence of the Unsullied keeps Kohor safe. But the Unsullied is too expensive. Whether it's the cost of buying the Unsullied from Astapor, or the logistical supplies that the Unsullied themselves need, and the Spirits they have to drink regularly

The wine of medicinal courage. The existence of the Unsullied is like a river of gold, allowing your wealth to flow out while it feeds them. It is said that the governor who bought the Unsullied ended up spending all his savings and possessions. Even falling

into a situation where he had to borrow money to get by.

If it was only a small number of Unsullied, it wouldn't have much of an impact, but a city like Kohor, whose garrison was entirely composed of Unsullied, would have paid a huge price for protecting the city's safety.

It's no wonder that Astapor chooses to train the powerful Unsullied and sell them as commodities, because the income of Astapol alone can't feed too many Unsullied.

No governor after this would have wanted to be like the one in history, who had spent all his money on the war, and even fell into a miserable situation where he was on the verge of bankruptcy and had to go into debt.

Therefore, even with the Unsullied, Kohor would not dare to start a war after that. For the Dothraki, Kohor has always maintained an attitude of bribing if he can, and the Unsullied is just a hole card to ensure safety.

So when Liu Jian's Karatha stopped by the Kohor Forest, the rulers of the Kohor city-state undoubtedly panicked.

After the panic, the rulers of the city-state of Kohor made the same decision as their ancestors.

That is to find a way to bribe Liu Jian, the new Kao, who is said to be extremely powerful, and respectfully ask Liu Jian to leave the range of Kohor to avoid plunging Kohor into the flames of war.

In addition to the 'goods' brought by Amron Cohen, Governor Kohor also specially commissioned Aaron Cohen to bring three gifts.

A scimitar.

A strangely shaped black longbow.

And a whole box of gold.

The scimitar is the standard Arac scimitar, but unlike the regular Arrak scimitar, it is made of Valyrian steel. Liu Jian put this scimitar in his hand and checked it, this black scimitar is extremely lightweight, than

The usual Arak cutlass was much lighter.

Hold the handle of the knife with one hand and the tip of the knife with the other.

In Liu Jian's hands, Valyrian steel showed extremely tough properties. Liu Jian tried it with the blade of this scimitar. Although the sharpness of this Valyrian steel does surpass that of ordinary steel weapons, it is not sharp enough to make Liu Jianzao

into serious injuries. After all, there are limits to how sharp a weapon can be. With the power of ordinary people, its destructive power is limited after all. For Liu Jian, who has reached the seventh level of the Golden Bell Jar cultivation. What really hurts him is attached to the weapon

of supernatural power, not the weapon itself.

But what made Liu Jian even more curious was ...... It seems that as mentioned in the original book, the materials used in Valyrian steel are no different from ordinary steel. The reason for the sharpness and lightness of Valyrian steel, as well as its properties, is not like the ring

The 'Mithril' among the kings is also due to the special material, but the power of magic is used in the casting process to bless the weapon itself.

In this regard, Liu Jian is very interested in research.

After all, this Valyrian steel Arak scimitar is directly involved in the biggest secret of the world of A Song of Ice and Fire, magic.

And it has fallen into its own hands and can be left to its own research.

The other black longbow is not an ordinary color.

The material that makes up the bow arm is the famous keel.

Although in Essos. In Westeros, dragons have been gone for a long time, and most people believe that dragons are completely extinct. But what the dragon left behind is still there, and it continues to be an influence.

The first to bear the brunt is the keel.

Due to the large amount of iron, the keel is pitch black. It is as tough as steel and lighter and more resilient.

The Dothraki were more skilled in mounted archery than Valyrian steel.

There are many suspicions that Valyrian steel is actually cast from keel. Of course...... This is not the case.

Keel and Valyrian steel, when these two things fell into Liu Jian's hands, he could clearly feel the essential difference between these two things.

In Liu Jian's eyes. The keel is no less than Valyrian steel for the study of materials.

As for the last box of gold.

This crate of gold is probably the most valuable of the three gifts in terms of the value of the world. But in Liu Jian's eyes, this box of gold is the most insignificant.

Therefore, Liu Jian accepted the Arak scimitar and keel bow of Valyrian steel. But he returned the last piece of gold and put it in front of Anronkorn.

"Great Titankao, may I ask what this is?"

"This box of gold is for you."

"Oh. You're so generous......" Anronkorn said in surprise, but he didn't dare to rejoice in anything. Because he hadn't figured out what Liu Jian meant.

"I have a task for you."

When he heard Liu Jian say this, An Long Cohen finally breathed a sigh of relief. This means that he can leave Liu Jian's Karasha alive. He didn't even care what the task given by Liu Jian was: "Please command, Venerable Titan Kao." ”

"I've heard that there are some interesting things that appear in the market of Yaxia in the distant land of shadows from time to time, such as dragon eggs, and I want you to bring me one."

The value of the dragon egg is very high but not very high, and in the case that the dragon egg cannot hatch, it is essentially just a rare special gem with a high collection value. In the original book, it is mentioned that a dragon egg can be exchanged for a ship.

Liu Jian didn't know whether this price was a regular market price or a black market price, but the box of gold under his feet was more than enough to exchange for a ship, and it must be enough to exchange it for a dragon egg.

In fact, it is precisely like this, Anlong Cohen agreed without hesitation.

This crate of gold was enough to buy a dragon egg, and he didn't even need to go to the damn land of dark shadows, where there were wealthy merchants in Kohor who had kept fossils of dragon eggs, and Anroncohen had seen them at banquets. Although that person may not be willing to sell the dragon egg

Sell...... But if Governor Kohor knew that he only needed to pay a dragon egg to satisfy the Titankao, he would be willing to cooperate with him to exert pressure.

If you do this well, you will not only be able to save your own life and get your property back, but you may even make a lot of money from it.

The black goat bless itself.

Of course, he wouldn't think that Liu Jian might hatch dragon eggs.

In the hundreds of years since the extinction of dragons, countless people have tried countless ways to hatch dragon eggs to give birth to new dragons. And then he was as invincible as the 'Dragon King' Aegon back then.

But all of them. Whether it is a nobleman, a merchant, a commoner, a man, a woman, a warrior, a king, or even a wizard, an alchemist, a bachelor, a necromancer, a nightcrawler...... Everyone wants to hatch the dragon again.

But after countless times and countless people have given countless riches and lives in countless ways. Everyone in the world of A Song of Ice and Fire had to accept a fact.

Dragons are extinct.

Now the dragon egg. It's a treasured piece of jewelry, a collector's item, but that's about it.

It's not as good as it used to be, it represents great power and the future.

Liu Jian then entered the forest, and walked out with two boxes larger than the one that Anronkorn used to hold gold, and after putting them down in front of Anronkorn, Liu Jian opened the boxes.

The dazzling golden light immediately nailed Anlong Cohen's eyes!

That's two big boxes of gold!

More than all of his possessions!

"Anronkorn, you are to be my messenger and tell Kohor. Tell all the merchants of the Free Trade Union. Looking at An Long Cohen, who had all his attention focused on the two large boxes of gold, the corners of Liu Jian's mouth couldn't help but hook up a sinister arc:

"I, Titankao, have enough wealth to satisfy their greed and **. As long as they can bring the goods I want. You can also go back and tell Governor Kohor that I have no intention of provoking a war. I won't be seen under the walls of Kohor

of Karatha, even if there was only one cavalryman with a bow and a scimitar. As long as Kohor is willing to sell me what I want, they can get the wealth they want. I swear to the god of horses that as long as the people of Kohor don't provoke my wrath, I will

Does not attack the city-state of Kohor. If Kohor is threatened by the enemy. I can protect them when they need it. ”

"Of course, of course, everything is as you wish." An Long Cohen nodded his head again and again, even when answering Liu Jian. Alon Cohen's eyes were still fixed on the two chests of gold from time to time. These yellow-orange-orange cuties are too motivating

I don't look away.

"I don't know what kind of goods the great Titankao needs, maybe the honest and honest Anronkorn can provide a little help to the great Titankao...... Of course, I'm not saying that the great Titankao needed the help of someone as humble as me.

Just ......"

"Enough. Put away your ridiculous flattery, before I decide to kill you. He habitually intimidated Anronkorn. Liu Jian then said, "You want to get my gold?" Of course you can get my gold, weapons

, armor, bows and arrows, Valyrian steel, keels, dragon eggs, and small children. If you bring me these things, I can give you an inexhaustible amount of gold. ”

Liu Jian may lack other things, but this thing is gold, half of the space in Liu Jian's small space ring is used to hold this kind of thing, which is hard currency in most worlds. Although the last time I was in the world of Jin Yong's heroes, that world was alone

The financial system slapped itself in the face, but this time, in Essos, in Westeros, and even in Valyria and the shadows of Yasha, gold was hard currency.

"Little ...... Child? ”

"That's right, little one."

"No matter what nationality he is, no matter where he comes from, whether he is male or female or castrated, over ten years old, under thirteen years old, I can buy each one for the price of a slave in the prime of life."

When Anlong Cohen heard this, he was about to jump up with excitement.

The slave trade was undoubtedly one of the most lucrative industries in the world, and there were always slave traders among the richest merchants in any city-state.

Especially Liu Jian wants children over ten years old and under thirteen years old.

Anlong Cohen didn't care what Liu Jian wanted so many children for.

He only cares that Liu Jian wants children of this age, and children of this age are generally cheap.

Ten-year-olds and thirteen-year-olds eat a lot, have little strength, can't do heavy work, and are generally not very obedient.

Unless there are special skills, such as being proficient in multiple languages, for example, being very beautiful has the value of being trained to become a high-level **, for example, being particularly strong has the value of being trained to be a gladiator, for example, there is some kind of special identity. Where, where

Princes, princesses and so on...... Otherwise a slave of this age. Neither male nor female slaves can be sold for a good price.

But...... If he. Alon Cohen could sell these half-old child slaves for the same price as a middle-aged slave, and with the slave trade alone, Anroncoen could make a fortune and become one of the richest merchants in the free trade city-state.

"The Great TitanKao." An Long Cohen couldn't help but say excitedly: "The black goat god is above, you will definitely be able to get everything you want." ”

With the same joy and excitement of being about to make a fortune, Anlong Cohen once again left Liu Jian's Karatha.

Liu Jian grabbed a Braavos sword and looked at it carefully.

These Braavos swords were so well forged that Liu Jian could tell that they were much finer than the Arlac scimitars used by the Dothraks. Not surprisingly, it should be the product of the craftsmen of Kohor, the workman of Kohor in the free trade city-state

The artisan was the most famous, and a wide variety of sophisticated weapons and equipment were sold in that city.

These Braavos stabbing swords, with their slender blades, are not suitable for slashing and slashing. Although its blade is more than enough to cut through the neck, it is obviously not enough to cut through the human body. The biggest point of damage of this thin stabbing sword is actually located at the tip

, where it is sharpened and sharpened, in the face of an unarmored enemy, with a little force, the tip of this sword will pierce into the human body.

There is no doubt that it is suitable for some people.

"Carrie, take two hundred armors and four hundred swords, and go into the forest with me."

Not deep in the Kohor Forest. There is a campsite.

There were 200 of the children trained by Liu Jian, 200 castrated teenagers bought from Meereen.

Unlike other teenagers who were trained by Liu Jian, they were stationed alone, staying very close to Liu Jian's camp. Stationed in the forests of Kohor. On weekdays, Liu Jian is responsible for teaching them martial arts and how to fight, while Cheng Caiwei is responsible for teaching

How they war.

Two hundred teenagers. Each one was handed over by Liu Jian.

As for keeping them here, not safer at a distance.

Because. These castrated teenagers already have a certain combat effectiveness.

In other words, the quick completion of "Sword Spectrum to Waroff Evil Spirits" really surprised Liu Jian again and again.

As long as you are ruthless, give yourself a crucial knife. Even if you have poor talent like Lin Pingzhi, you can easily clean up the leaders of Yu Canghai and Mu Gaofeng after practicing for three or four months, and they are good at martial arts. And such as Yu Canghai and Mu Gaofeng, which one

It's not that I haven't practiced since I was a child, and I have laid a solid foundation.

In two or three months, you can top most of the penance of others...... This cultivation speed is simply a plug-in.

Among the martial arts of Jin Yong's system, only the unearned martial arts such as the Northern Shengong and the Star Absorbing Dafa compete with the "Evil Warding Sword Method" in terms of speed.

And now in the world of A Song of Ice and Fire, although they have only been trained for less than three months, these castrated teenagers have indeed practiced the swordsmanship of warding off evil spirits and have good combat effectiveness, although their swordsmanship is still very good because of their beginner practice

Rough, but Liu Jian did feel the ghostly speed of the "Evil Warding Sword Technique".

Two hundred teenagers were assembled in front of them, and they put on the half-body armor brought by Liu Jian, and the Braavos rapier brought by Liu Jian, two swords per person.

Looking at these half-grown children, looking at themselves with adoration and admiration under hypnosis for a long time, Liu Jian suddenly hesitated.

Isn't it a bit irresponsible to just take these children on the battlefield?

Their training is actually just the beginning, and it is far from being completed.

In the beginning, letting these poor children who had been castrated practice the "Sword Technique to Warse Off Evil Spirits" was only a decision made by Liu Jian for the purpose of experimentation, but after starting the training and quickly getting results, Liu Jian began to think that he could do it

Some of the castrated children were trained to become some of the best Assassins.

Because of the sword technique of warding off evil spirits, they are much faster than the vast majority of people in this world.

The fatal blow that these swift children stabbed from a dark corner with their bayonet swords was almost impossible to guard against.

So after their internal skills in the "Sword Technique of Warding Off Evil Spirits" were a little successful, Liu Jian began to want to teach them to conceal, poison, assassinate and even disguise.

But now it must be too late, in the coming war, Liu Jian desperately needs these children to become his own strength. (To be continued.) )
