Chapter 767: The Rich and Powerful Black Eagle Leader (3)
Baron Allens' Castle, in the hall, a trembling knight in full armor, came to the center of the hall and stood up, and then stood beside Baron Allens, the well-known knight of the Allens family, Zollens, with lightning speed, drew his sword, wrapped in dazzling red flames, and slashed at the knight who was standing a little crooked.
There was a crisp sound, and the knight standing in the center of the hall didn't even let out a scream, he flew directly upside down and fell to the ground for several meters, and the sound of metal hitting the floor continued to sound, and at the same time, it could be seen that the armor had been red and red, as if it had been grilled by the flames for a long time, and similarly, in the center of the armor, there was a sword mark.
The servants who were waiting beside him, although all pale and trembling, carried buckets and poured them on the knight, and the water vapor rose at once, and after a while, the red color of the armor disappeared, and the servants hurriedly removed the armor.
The person in the armor was not a knight, but a person dressed in the same costume as their servants, but at this moment this person was already scorched, and even some of the smell of flesh wafted out. The servants had a sad look in their eyes, and they hurriedly carried the corpse away, while the others quickly wiped the water on the floor and sprayed a little perfume.
As for the noble knights in the hall, they didn't pay any attention to this, and they all focused on inspecting the armor.
Zuorens stroked the sword mark, nodded and said: "The protection is very strong, my eight-strength flame sword can't be broken, and the burning of the flames doesn't make it brittle, look at it like this, as long as the person wearing armor can hold it, it is no problem to block my ten swords." ”
Hearing the chief knight say this, everyone couldn't help but gasp, and Baron Allens even pulled off a few beards.
A knight of the Allens family bloodline said excitedly: "Baron, where did you get this kind of armor, if such a good armor is equipped on our knights, the combat power can be directly doubled!"
"Hehe, don't think about it, this kind of armor must be expensive, just your set of armor that cost 1,000 gold coins to buy, it is only two swords that can support Lord Zollens, and these are ten swords, just think about how much this new armor costs!" Another knight who was also of the Allens family's bloodline, who had something to deal with him, sneered directly.
Zollens didn't get involved, just looked at his monarch, Baron Ellens, glanced at John who was standing aside, John sighed, took a step and said: "Everyone, this is the knight's armor that the Black Hawk Leader openly sells, a complete set of knight's armor, including two horses and all kinds of weapons, only costs 2000 Black Hawk gold coins." ”
"Two thousand gold coins?!Damn!, it's so cheap?" a knight shouted with his eyes shining.
"Openly selling the entire knight's equipment?Did the Black Hawk Leader slaughter a knight order?!" This is what the frowning knights said, obviously, the knights on Baron Allens's side are still above the level, at least more than half of them are thinking about this issue instantly.
Of course, there are also people with different levels of attention: "Black Hawk coins? They actually mint their own coins? Does anyone use them?"
John didn't answer the other questions, but nodded at the last question: "It has been circulated to several barons in the surrounding areas, especially in the port city, and is used as a trading currency." ”
At this moment, almost all knights are face changed, they have undergone hard training, after difficult study, to be promoted to knights, but not like the knights described in the only brute force, oh, a single illiterate don't want to become a knight, it means that a person with the status of a knight, is really worthy of the reputation of the noble reserve.
As for Mao, if you can't read and write, you can't become a knight? It's very simple, a knight has to cultivate at least one kind of power, and these powers are all from secret books.
Do you really think that kind of people who are born with strong strength and can climb into the nobility if they make meritorious contributions all the way? And the so-called aristocracy is illiterate, and all knowledge is in the hands of the church? All these are rumors that the church belittles the nobles and makes to confuse the garbage people below! It's really a joke, a nobleman, literacy is a must, or that sentence, not to mention managing the territory or anything, just learning all kinds of knightly skills, he must be literate to do it! Illiterate people are not even qualified to be a servant!
Therefore, it is very normal that the knights of Baron Allens, after hearing John's words, all changed their faces, because they knew what kind of situation would be brought about by the wide circulation of private coins made by a lord. Nothing else, the increased reputation alone is enough to make Lord Black Eagle famous!
And if a nobleman wants to rise and grow, in addition to being powerful, what is more important is his reputation! You must know that in many cases, as long as he has a reputation, he can borrow a large army to build a country! There are many such things in history.
"No, he can't be allowed to do this! What is the size of his Black Hawk Coins, let's immediately mint a batch of fakes to ruin the reputation of Black Hawk Coins!" said an old knight angrily.
Several knights who were originally angry couldn't help but be stunned when they heard this, and they all looked at the old knight dumbfounded, but soon they came to their senses and immediately bowed their heads and kept silent.
When John noticed this, he couldn't help but sigh secretly, he knew why the young knights looked stunned, because according to their custom, the first thing to use in such a thing was force, because it was too troublesome to use other means, and it was more convenient and convenient to directly use force to eradicate the problem at the root.
But obviously, they just woke up after a stunned moment, don't look at Lord Black Hawk is just a lord, or a lord who divides the territory from his own side, but he meows, people are cattle people who can directly abuse Baron West to admit defeat and cede the land and sue for peace!
And Baron West is an existence that can fight against his own monarch for days and nights, so it is certain that the Lord Black Eagle will definitely be able to torture his own monarch to death.
In such a situation, it is an idiot's choice to solve the problem by force, so it is good to use other means, such as minting a large number of counterfeit coins to ruin the reputation of Black Hawk coins.
