Chapter 35: The Sincerity of the Six Cities Alliance
Within the next month, Mean was able to open his own church school, with only 100 students enrolled in the first batch due to time and space. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
Among the 100 young people, the youngest was fourteen years old and the oldest was not more than eighteen, and Mien personally selected them from among the thousands of applicants.
These young people only need to spend two years of their youth serving the church in exchange for a one-year intensive teaching, and many of them can't even squeeze in.
Moreover, Minn is very strict about the selection of personnel, after all, the number of places is limited at the beginning, and the church does not have the ability to accept all orders.
During this period, Samiyah began to send men to mine iron ore on the one hand, arming the soldiers of Lotta, and on the other hand, these high-quality iron ores were transported to the barbarians in exchange for large quantities of food, so as to solve the embarrassing situation of Lotta's autumn harvest with only 10% of the previous year's profits.
Although most of the barbarians made a living from hunting, their skill in growing potatoes was unmatched, and every year the barbarians would trade those potatoes for some other crops in Lotta.
And the Six Cities Alliance and Black Rock City, which had been silent for a month after the defeat, finally moved today.
It's still the same greedy fat man, the envoy Monte who narrowly escaped in the final battle, and now this guy is fidgeting in the drawing room of Maidster Castle.
Hell, witnessing the divine punishment from the gods, Monte had already cursed the top boss who had come to Lotta, and the poor cowards had all kicked the ball on him.
After praying to the gods over and over again to forgive him, Monte finally waited for the current lord of Lotta, Samiyah Medester.
Seeing Samiyah walk in, Monte instantly stood up and said excitedly, "Lord of the city!
Sitting in his chair, Sameer smiled, "Is the envoy already impatient?"
"Don't dare, Your Excellency Lord Medestre, I have come this time to discuss with you on behalf of the Six Cities Alliance and Black Rock City about the purchase of iron ore, and we sincerely want to invite you to join the Six Cities Alliance, of course, this time we are here with twelve points of sincerity. ”
Although Monte's eyes are small, his eyesight is not bad at all, and this new city lord is definitely the golden knight who was at the city gate that day!
A powerful knight with a thousand!
"If you want to buy iron ore, you can sell it for double the price. ”
"Lord Castle Lord, Lotta is only one of the sources of our iron ore, we just want to have a long-term relationship with Lotta, and I have also brought you thirty carts of grain to show our sincerity. ”
"That's not the time to talk, guard, send-off!"
Sumiyah personally came to talk to him and gave the Six Cities Alliance a lot of face, if they still wanted to ask for a price, Sameer would naturally treat them with color.
"Lord Castle, we will give you another hundred carts of food! Lord Castle Lord..."
"Guard, let him in. ”
Monte tidied up his clothes that had been messed up by the guards, and let out a sigh of relief, today is no better than before, if you want to put up a fight, if the conversation collapses today, it will definitely be a disaster when you go back!
The bigwigs, who were so frightened by the wrath of the gods, were not going to spare themselves.
Monte gritted his teeth, "Lord City, half percent higher than the market price is our bottom line, no matter how high it is, I can't help it, you know, the price of iron ore has always been very stable, and we can't pay a higher price." ”
"Twenty percent, you can talk about the next thing, if not, you can go back with your food. ”
Then Monte cried and begged his grandfather to tell his grandmother, and finally set the price at one percent more, and Samier relented.
"One achievement, one success, let's say, what's the matter. ”
Anyway, the extra 10% is also earned in vain, and receiving it when you see it is good is also one of the compulsory courses for the superiors.
Monte has dealt with many city lords, but it is the first time he has seen a city lord like Samier, not to mention the momentum of the superiors, just a little coercion that the powerful knight inadvertently leaked made Monte, a fat man who had never killed a chicken, tremble.
"In addition to the extra percent, we are willing to add another half percent, and count the extra half percent as a donation to the church, Lord Castle, what do you think..."
"Yes, I am also a believer in the church myself, and if Your Excellency Yang knows about this, I should be very happy about your dedication to the church. ”
"So where is Your Excellency Yang now? I also have a personal gift for him to express my personal gratitude. ”
Of course, Monte had to thank Meen for not killing, and seeing Jeff's death under divine punishment with lightning on his head, Monte was so scared that he almost peed his pants!
Although it is said to be a thanks, Monte is most likely to spend money to buy peace of mind.
"I can take the gift for Mine, he's not in Lotta right now. ”
Monte hurriedly handed a delicate small box to Samiya, "Then it's troublesome to the city lord, I just don't know how important it is to join the Six Cities Alliance..."
"Let's think about this matter when Mien comes back, if you have nothing to do, you can stay in Lota first, and we'll talk about it in detail when Mien comes back. ”
It can be said that the attitude of the Six Cities Alliance this time is quite unprecedentedly low, and it is almost to curry favor with Lotta and send money to Lotta.
Fortunately, this is also good news, at least there is no need to worry about a large-scale war.
...
As for Meen, this guy is taking the little snake and hiking through the snowstorm.
"Why did you run so far, the Holy Light is above, we've been walking for half a month!"
The little snake tucked into Meen's sleeve, "It's not because you're walking too slowly. ”
Half a month ago, in addition to upgrading the skill level every day, Mien, who had nothing to do, decided to go further north with Little Snake to see if the dragon was real.
In the words of the little snake, the dragon seems... Very sleepy...
Otherwise, it won't come back.
Meen sometimes wondered if he was about to run to the North Pole! It was freezing cold, and his horse Mien had already been lost, and now the snow on the road could even reach his legs, making it very difficult to walk.
"Hell, if I don't get to the place you said tomorrow, I'm going back, and I'm going to die in this place if I go on like this!"
Fortunately, the little snake's bizarre sense of direction is comparable to that of an autopilot, otherwise Mien would have been lost in this snowy sky!
Even if Meen regrets it now, he has already gone so far, and it is not Mien's style to go back the way he came.
"It's almost there, don't worry. ”
"The day before yesterday, you said it was almost there!
"It's really coming soon. ”
Thanks to Mien's various skills and status, and he carried a lot of dry food before entering here, the huge burden behind Mien now is full of dry food and fuel except for the tent.
But as Mien walked, he suddenly felt something under his feet.
Meen stomped on it a few more times... I guess there won't be any animal carcasses or anything like that.
Out of curiosity, Meen pulled away the snow, and instead of the expected animal carcass, a young man who was about to freeze to death was lying in the snow with only the air coming out and not the air coming in.
Meen hurriedly put his ear to the young man's chest, but fortunately he could still hear a faint heartbeat.
"Holy light, this guy is dying. ”
Seeing that the young man still had some signs of life, Mien picked up the young man and ran up the hill not far away, where he had passed by a natural cave where he had stored a lot of things, which was a temporary supply point.
First released a few purifications for the young man, removing the frozen state.
Ten minutes later, Meen carried the young man to the cave.
With great effort, he lit the bonfire and boiled a cup of hot water, and Mien slowly poured it down for the young man, and the warmth of the hot water and the flame made the young man's wrinkled face stretch a little.
At the same time, Meen breathed a sigh of relief, this unlucky ghost seemed to have fainted not long ago, if he hadn't happened to be bumped into by Meen, it would have been a human-shaped popsicle in a few hours.
The little snake came out of Meen's arms and looked around the young man for a while, "Do you know him?"
"I don't know. ”
"Then what are you doing to save him, delay our trip, and we'll be there in a few hours. ”
Meen warmed himself up by taking a sip of hot water into the flames, "Hehe, don't you know humans very well?
"In the case of this snake, it must be your strange sympathetic creature at work, contradictory creature. ”
"It's supposed to be a complex creature with a strong sense of self, and I don't know myself what a snake can talk about about humans. ”
Mien poured a little hot water and soft dry food on the young man, and saved him, so he didn't have to worry for a while, and waited for the young man to wake up.
"Phew! This snake has traveled more roads than you have ever eaten salt!
"Come on, I think you should know more about a snake... No, what a flesh-and-blood creature should look like. ”
"Hmph, this snake won't fall into your trap. ”
For this little snake full of 'philosophy' all day long, Meen and its bickering have become more than eating and drinking daily behavior in the past half a month.
Ignoring the little snake's broken thoughts on the side, Mien closed his eyes, every energy in this kind of ghost place is very precious!
