Chapter Forty-Eight: Rivalry
"Lord Maidste, I heard that you defeated Baggins, the genius Silver Knight, in a knightly duel. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info"
Straan's owner, Anthony Murphy, was a middle-aged man with a sturdy build, who, unlike Anderson, was a formal knight.
Samiyah wiped the food scraps from his mouth with a napkin, "Yes, do you have any questions?"
Murphy smiled slightly, even if he was fighting with a silver knight, even if he didn't use his fighting spirit and had more combat experience, Murphy didn't dare to say that he could win.
So he thinks that Samiyah must have used some means, or that it was simply a deal between Lotta and the Brans.
As a valiant knight who admired chivalry, Murphy was somewhat scornful of the outcome of the battle.
This is not the same as Mien's original world, where all the news is spread by word of mouth, and the three of them become tigers, so Murphy does not know what happened in that knight's duel that day, everything is hearsay, but this does not affect his doubts about the identity of the knight of Samier.
Such a beautiful young girl, Murphy could hardly associate her with a powerful knight.
"But it is said that you let the Hogg knight go, and with all due respect, only one person is allowed to leave in the ancient knightly duel, doesn't Lord Maidster think that your actions are against the tradition of knights?"
Murphy bites the word knight very hard, the lord of Prut is a knight who has been famous for a long time, of course Murphy knows, but his daughter, Murphy is still skeptical.
Samiyah also responded with a smile, "Your Excellency has been overly concerned, I don't think my actions are contrary to the traditions of knights, maybe it's just that you, who have heard of it, should know more about the details of the duel." ”
Murphy's eyes narrowed slightly, and the knight's powerful momentum enveloped Samier in an instant, "Young man, you should respect tradition! And I am also an old acquaintance with your father, you should also learn to respect your father!"
Samier was completely indifferent, and directly wrapped Murphy with a stronger momentum than Murphy, "I respect tradition!
The confrontation between the two powerful knights made everyone at the banquet, except for Mine, feel pressured, and even many ladies felt tightness in their chests and felt suffocated!
Both Murphy and Sameer calmed down their vindictiveness out of temptation, and Murphy clapped his hands, "It seems that you have surpassed your father." ”
"Your Excellency, compared to my father, I am only a young man who has not grown up. ”
Although Murphy was calm on the surface, he was already in turmoil in his heart!Silver Knight!Also a knight, Murphy knew that he had lost to Samiyah from the beginning, and that incomparably powerful force... Pinnacle Silver Knight!
Hold back the shock in your heart, Murphy is not the fool of Golan, he can talk and laugh with Samiyah so easily, the young man of the church will definitely not be a good stubble!
That's the pinnacle Silver Knight! Even those six behemoths must be regarded as guests!
Murphy seemed to have guessed something other than the suspicious miracle as to why he had made peace with that attack on Lotta.
Although Anderson has also practiced martial arts for many years and has never been able to break through, he can also faintly feel something.
As for the Golan ... He is a politician who knows nothing about power.
Thinking of the secret conversation with Anderson earlier, Murphy had the feeling that he was being used as a gunman, damn it! This sinister guy must know something!
Thanks to his own temptation, the situation has not deteriorated, Murphy's attitude changed quickly, and he smiled, "I guess your father will also be pleased to have such a daughter." ”
Samier smiled good-naturedly and did not continue the topic.
The two of you said a word to me, and some people present said that they didn't understand, and this Murphy's attitude changed a little quickly.
But Golan would not give up this opportunity, and cleared his throat, "Your Excellency Medest, in fact, we have one more thing we want to discuss with you today. ”
"Speak. ”
"If I'm not mistaken, the reserves of that iron ore mine in Lotta are very impressive, and with the current size of Lotta, you definitely can't consume that much ore, so I want to buy some ore from you, and of course, I hope you can get a better price in terms of price. ”
Finally, these cunning fellows Annai could not hold back the true purpose of this banquet and showed his fox tail.
Anderson's plan was very simple, use the strategic pattern of the three horns to surround Lotta, and then force Lotta to sell his ore at a low price, if Lotta did not agree, with their means, Lotta would not want to transport a cart of things out of here in the future, unless they didn't mind going around in a big circle with the barbarians.
But at this time, Anderson and Murphy realized the stupidity of this plan, so they were silent at this time, quietly watching Golan perform there alone.
And Golan is also a little strange why these two people don't say a word, but it's okay to get a little more benefit for themselves.
Samiyah replied politely, "It is clearly written in the treaty of the alliance, the lord of the Golan, all members of the alliance will pay a price of half higher than the market price to buy iron ore from me, if you have any questions, you can go to the top of the alliance to ask." ”
Goran snorted and sneered, "It seems that you are really poor and crazy in the countryside like Lotta, and it is half a percent higher than the market price? ”
"Oh, don't you have any opinions?"
Meen interjected at this point, "Country?, this guy's intentions are obvious."
"Eighty percent, I pay eighty percent of the market price, buy three thousand carts of ore every year, there is such a stable source of gold coins, why don't you think about it, of course, you can also change it to food, after all, a place like Lotta, there should be a shortage of food." ”
Mien knows very well that there is still his share in this iron mine, although it is only half a percent, but it is also a receipt of hundreds of gold coins every year, and there is absolutely no problem with the person who feeds the church.
Look for food on the side of Mistress Mean's mouth, perhaps his mouth is too long.
"No, no, no, you are mistaken, Lord Golan, starting today, Huelva's purchase of iron ore from Lotta has changed from one and a half more to three or three percent, and I think you must be very satisfied with this result. ”
"What!"
Golan slapped the table vigorously, "What are you? I'm talking to Lord Lotta!
Mien still smiled, "That's forty percent, it seems that the Golan lord's Velva is very rich." ”
Mien sat on the ground and raised the price, he didn't panic, you must know that in this world, iron ore is a rare strategic resource! Whoever has it is not all hiding and covering, muffling to develop armaments, and Lotta's iron ore reserves are amazing, and they can be sold within the alliance for money and food.
Goran's face sank and he looked at Samier, "Your Excellency Lord Medest, perhaps your identity has been challenged, it seems that there is something wrong with your prestige in Lotta." ”
Anderson and Murphy watched Golan direct and act here alone, with no desire to intervene at all, and as smart as Anderson saw Murphy's attitude change, he also kept himself out of the matter.
Murphy coughed dryly, took a sip of fruit wine, and pretended not to see or hear.
The league hierarchy and Lotta negotiated down the price, what do you a Huelva jump here.
Thanks to his cleverness and not being used as a gun by that guy from Anderson, to be able to sign such a treaty with the Alliance, that Lotta would certainly not be a weak backcountry like the rumors outside.
Samiyah cleared his throat, "Your Excellency has a lot to worry about this, as the spiritual leader of Lotta, Mien has the right to decide this matter for me. ”
"You!"
Golan has nothing to say now.
Minn still looked at Golan with a smile, "Lord Golan, do you still want to continue to bargain? There are countless orders to buy iron ore from us, and you will not be the only one. ”
At this time, Golan seemed to suddenly understand something, looking at Murphy with fluttering eyes and Anderson talking quietly to his wife, hell! Golan is not a fool, obviously he was tricked by these two guys!
He threatened Lotta and cut off their trade route if they didn't sell it at a low price, but these two guys actually had nothing to do with themselves, as if only they knew about the conspiracy of the previous people.
Looking at Mien, who was smiling all the time, and Samier, who was smiling and not knowing what he was whispering to Mien, and several ladies who looked at him in surprise, Goran felt like a clown at this time.
These two damn bastards!
Having already scolded Anderson and Murphy in his heart, Golan wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, hell! This smiling young man was completely watching the joke!
Laughed dryly, "Ha... Ha... Your Excellency Yang said with a smile, I was just joking just now, look at this banquet, the scene is too cold, I just want everyone to be happy. ”
can run Huelva for so long, Golan is also the type of person who can't be pierced by cheeky shells, this nonsense is just coming, and his face is not red.
"Oh, I thought my lord was serious, but now that I've said it, then Huelva's purchase of iron ore from Lotta will be forty percent higher than the market price. ”
Mien said lightly, as if it were some inconsequential trivial, "By the way, as long as it is the iron ore purchased by Velva, we will definitely rank your order first." ”
Now Golan wants to cry without tears, Anderson and Murphy, two bastards! He is now riding a tiger, and this young man is a devil who eats people and does not spit out bones!
Look at his constant expression, hell!
"Your Excellency Yang, don't make fun of me. ”
Goran's fat face was not known to be roasted by the heat of the fireplace or by nervousness, and sweat covered his greasy face.
"I heard that there are missionaries in the church who are preaching in Huelva, and I am willing to build a church for the church for free, where the missionaries' food, clothing, housing and transportation are all responsible for Huelva!"
My God, it's time for you to let go, although it's more than forty percent now, and it's uncertain whether Lotta will sell it to herself then!
And these two guys will definitely curry favor with Lotta, Golan, who has always boasted of being scheming, did not expect that he would capsize in the gutter.
With a smile on his face, Gran waited for Meen's reply.
"Since the Golan is so supportive of the cause of the Church, the Light will remember your dedication. ”
Seeing Mien relent, Golan finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Sameer glanced at Mien and said with a smile, "Your Excellency Golan doesn't have to care, Mien just played a joke with you just now, after all, this banquet is a bit cold, isn't it?"
Golan hurriedly responded.
In the end, this banquet with ulterior motives ended in an atmosphere of great joy for all.
