5 Foothold Chapter 109 Bad News

At this time, Donald was in the lord's solution, observing several red light spots of different shades in the spiritual vision of the Tree of Life.

Uther, Kael'thas, Barn, Tik, and Roussel, one of the three mages, all stood silently in front of Donald waiting for their master's orders.

After a while, Donald commanded: "Uther, you go to the workshop, Kael'thas, the blacksmith you are most familiar with, go to the blacksmith, Russel, you go to the new inn in the town, and the two of you and a few guards along the main road of the shopping street to control the people who are making trouble in front of those shops, I don't care what the situation is, as long as they don't make too much trouble." ”

Clinton is consolidating his position, and Murray and Dina are also working, so Donald's forces are currently the only ones available. However, it should be enough to deal with some troublesome scoundrels.

"As for me, I'll go and meet you as the most hostile guy!" After speaking, Lou Cong and the seven of them immediately separated.

At this time, there were many people in front of the Alchemy Fire Shop, most of them were townspeople watching the excitement, but there were also some outsiders and adventurers.

Donald, who was wearing a cloak to hide his identity, heard a male voice with a male duck voice howling from a distance, and when he saw the situation, he secretly sneered in his heart: "Hehe!

Donald had been prepared for this to prevent this from happening.

Because there was a mage in the store, Donald wasn't worried about any trouble. Since the number of territorial affairs has increased, the three Sī mages of Murray and the others have also been assigned jobs by Donald, and the three of them rotate every ten days, teaching in the Lord's Mansion, working in the Adventurer's Guild, and sitting in the Alchemy Fire.

Among them, the work in Alchemy Fire is the most leisurely, and you can arrange your own time when you stay in the store, study spells, and practice meditation. Only when there is a situation that shì can't handle will come forward, for example, if there is an unrecognizable material in the store, they need to come out and identify it.

Seeing that the show had just begun, Donald decided that he might as well not show up for the time being and see how Master Murray handled the matter.

I saw the male duck screaming hoarsely in front of the alchemy door.

"Return my baby, you are all noble dogs, with the same black heart, specializing in bullying us civilians!"

It's just that except for a few adventurers from other places, none of the surrounding townspeople responded to his provocation. It's also to blame this person for not understanding the situation, you must know that the lords of Dalaran are all because of Donald, the lord, who can live such a stable and prosperous life now, and they can't feel too late for Donald, how can they hate it?

In particular, the townspeople of Makusè Town, their status in the territory has been faintly higher than that of the people in the two villages, and the difference can only be felt when they are compared, and the environment and treatment in the town are undoubtedly better than those in the village, and this is because of the favor of the lord and the efforts of their own families, so they have always worked for Donald with all their heart. The living conditions of the villagers in the two villages were much better than those in the territories outside of Dalaran, and there was no bloody persecution of commoners by the nobles.

In addition, many of the products in the Alchemy Fire Shop are produced by the townspeople in the workshops, and if the shop is forced to close, it will inevitably affect the income of many townspeople. This guy didn't know the details, and even scolded them together, of course, it didn't arouse the sympathy of the townspeople, but made them all a little disgusted, so this guy's plan to win sympathy was a complete failure.

From the crowd's comments and the man's complaints, Donald got a general idea of what had happened.

It turns out that this person is also said to be an adventurer, and during an adventure, he found a box of Mithril in a ruined tomb, and took one of them to the Alchemy Fire to sell, but was forcibly detained by the shopkeeper.

Hearing this, Donald sneered in his heart. I don't know if this kind of plan is self-conceived by this person, or is it arranged by the forces behind him? It is simply whimsical to want to rely on such a clumsy excuse to attack the reputation of the alchemy fire.

"It's out, it's out!"

I saw the crowd stir, and Murray, dressed in a gray mage robe, walked out of the store. Although his expression was quite kind, the surrounding crowd with his own power and intimidation was much quieter, and the bitter master was silent for a while.

An outsider exclaimed beside him, "This is the mage, what a majesty!" A townsman proudly said to this one: "We have seen a lot of mages, our lord is a powerful mage, and there are four mages under him, this is one of them, the lord's sī people mage, Master Murray!"

Murray came to the adventurer who was sitting on the ground complaining, and looked at him calmly, until the bitter master sweated slightly, and then asked slowly, "You said you found a treasure with a box of Mithril in it!"

Hearing the mage's question, the adventurer shouted again.

"You jiān merchants, cannibalistic scoundrels, return my precious ......"

Master Murray didn't explain at all, and he didn't bother to explain, and only when he was tired did he snort coldly and asked around: "So far, these stories are all told by you alone, whether they are true or not, no one knows, I just ask one sentence, but did anyone see him walking into our alchemy fire with something?"

Memory is a very complex and interesting thing, and it is impossible for most people to remember what happened in front of them half an hour ago, but in fact, those memories are stored in the human brain, and it is possible to recall them as long as there is an appropriate external force.

Sure enough, I heard two people suddenly say loudly: "I see, I see, this guy went in empty-handed, and after a while he ran out and shouted, and brought us all over!

"That's it, Master Mage, I saw it too, he was lying."

Another witness was a townsman and an outsider.

Seeing that the crowd looked at him with all their eyes turned to suspicion, the bitter master immediately shouted: "Nonsense, I obviously went in with a piece of Mithril, and the treasures were all snatched away by them."

Murray said at this time: "You said that there is a box of Mithril, even if I take a piece, then there should be left, if you can take out a piece of Mithril, I will apologize to you in public on behalf of the Alchemy Fire, and exchange it for a treasure of the town store!"

This time, the bitter master was really speechless, his face was flushed, but he still didn't say a word to refute.

The middle-aged mage's face changed at this time, and he sneered: "I don't want a reasonable story to deceive people, I have been a mage for decades, and I have only seen Mithril a few times from Master Messer, and the largest one is only a small piece the size of a tooth, and it is regarded as a treasure by the master, are you a stone in the soil everywhere? and a box of Mithril, why don't you say that your father is a king, and you are a prince?"

The male duck's voice was already gray by this time, and there were bursts of laughter from the crowd.

"Haha! What a stupid liar......"

"Arrest him, put him in the garrison cell, and see if he dares to cheat in Dalaran?" "Yes, arrest him!" "Don't let him escape......" Seeing this, Donald knew that the biggest trouble had been solved, and he was very satisfied with Master Murray's steady and wise handling of it.

Just as he was about to return to the Lord's Palace, he saw someone in a carriage on the opposite side of the street waving to him through the curtain, Donald was suspicious, but after seeing the sign of the carriage, he guessed the identity of the other party, so he stepped forward without worrying at all.

When I entered the carriage, I saw that the person who came was the behind-the-scenes boss of the Jinsol Auction House, the former intelligence head of the kingdom, and the silver fox Angwa.

The Kinsol auction house, and the gold-coin-shaped logo, such a cheesy name and signboard, with a strong nouveau riche atmosphere, are the only ones this one can think of. However, according to this person's idea, the more ordinary and cheesy it is, the less it will attract the attention of outsiders, so as to facilitate his secret activities.

"Old man, welcome to Laran! Why don't you go to the lord, so that I can do the friendship of the landlord?"

The silver-haired old man smiled and said, "Lord Baron, although I know that your territory is well built, I am still amazed to see it with my own eyes today!"

"Did the old gentleman just come to compliment me?"

"I originally wanted to secretly go to your lord's mansion to find you, but now that I have met it, it is just right, this time there is bad news to tell you, the letter says I don't understand, I haven't been out for a long time, so I'll tell you in person!"

"Oh?" Donald became solemn when he heard this, and it was probably not an ordinary situation for this person to come out to tell him bad news.

"That's really hard old man, what's the situation, you can send someone to inform Yiduo!" Angva waved his hand, signaling that Donald didn't need to say any more words of thanks.

"Let me ask you, do you know who is behind these little troubles that have happened in your territory in the past two days?"

Donald blurted out, "You can guess, didn't the Mage Guild say that the mage has been locked up?"

Then my enemy is only Macbeth!" "You've forgotten someone!"

Donald asked suspiciously, "Who else?" I don't remember who else I offended besides these two!" "Of course it's His Royal Highness Prince Andrew!"

"Prince Andrew, I have only met him from afar in the royal capital, and I haven't even spoken a word, old man, aren't you joking?"

The silver-haired old man said solemnly: "Do you think I seem to be joking?" "Sometimes it's not that if you don't take the initiative to provoke the other party, people won't hate you." Do you know which big man is behind Macbeth?、, who is pointed out by the old man's words, and Donald knows why. The two princes competed for the throne, and all the forces in the kingdom chose their own side between them, except for the neutrals. And it is rumored that the Macbeth family is one of the hardcore members who support the Great Prince's line.

"I see, because I am at odds with the Macbeth family, and does His Highness Andrew also regard me as an enemy?"

The silver-haired old man said in a heavy tone: "Not only that, if you only offend the Macbeth family, the eldest prince is busy plotting big things, and he won't care about your grievances. But the mistake is that you were too close to the second prince Du Rui when you were in the Holy Sword Fortress, and then you became friendly with Ferdinand, the heir of the Ansel family who supported Du Rui, Andrew is a narrow-minded person, as long as he sees you as a threat, he will definitely do his best to eradicate you!"

"I don't think there's anything wrong with that!Who I associate with is my own business, and if he Prince Andrew is really so small-minded, then I don't mind having a fight with him!"@.
