The relationship between people is very similar to the relationship between countries in many cases: when a country is temporarily poor and weak, the powerful country next door can treat it with the high posture of the big brother, but when the poor and weak country gradually develops, it would be stupid if the big brother next door still treats it with the same posture as before, and they need to explore a new type of state relations in the new international environment.

The same was true between the Knights Templar and the Normans.

Realizing that the relationship between them and Norman was moving from controlling and being controlled in the past to cooperating and confrontation, Lancelot immediately adjusted their behavior and finally agreed to Norman's behavior in advance to collect materials for the antidote and make it.

But that doesn't mean Lancelot agrees with Norman's current move.

"In the previous behavioral choices, the risk gap was only a few percentage points, so we can accept how you choose, but this time is different,"

As Norman walked the streets of Douala, Lancelot kept saying in his mind: "The stakes are too great this time, it's not a matter of a few percentage points." ”

Norman's eyes roamed the streets as he spoke to Lancelot in an extremely low voice: "I'm just doing the same thing compared to before, how can I make it more risky?"

Lancelot said, "But your actions will be different from what you did before. ”

"In the previous towns, our purchase data was very fragmented and not centralized, which made it difficult for them to track it, but Douala is different. Douala is located on a major traffic route, and if you look at the data along the way, it is likely that it has most of the materials we need, and what do you do when you are faced with these materials? Buy them all at once? Too much centralized data is very dangerous, this is one of them. ”

"Second, you don't have the money now, and the way to get the materials is also a problem, so we came up with several solutions: First, we expect Pirnault to sell his paintings, but this is very unlikely. Painting is a special commodity, the buying group is very narrow, and at this point in time, a large number of people returning from the art capital gather, including definitely painters, and homogeneity will make Pirno's paintings even more difficult to sell, so I advise you not to count on Pirnault in advance. ”

"Other sources, then there are only unconventional means, such as stealing, or robbing. ”

It is clear that Norman's mindset was heavily influenced by his personal teacher.

"These two moves will increase our risk dramatically, and of course, you should have thought of the same thing that I heard in the tavern before, but I would say that it was also quite risky. ”

Lancelot dutifully said everything he had to say, but judging by the results of their reshaping of Norman's character model in the past few days, he probably said nonsense, Norman should have thought of all this, and he couldn't change Norman's mind when he said it.

And that's exactly what happened.

Norman continued all the way on, and did not stop his actions because of Lancelot's words, but said to Lancelot: "Okay, I'll just see." ”

It made Lancelot's face roll in a place that Norman couldn't see, and it was like a lot of boys and girls would say, "I'm just rubbing and not going in."

But what could Lancelot do? He could only order everyone to follow in the footsteps of this Sage and do everything possible to do a good job of risk control.

Douala wasn't too big, and there were even fewer trade areas, so it took Norman an afternoon to browse the city's shops, and he didn't know whether to say good or bad news: as the Templars had predicted, Douala had all the materials Norman needed on the main thoroughfare, but the price was a huge amount as Norman had already known.

Norman didn't know what kind of intention he had in mind when he returned to the Rose Inn, it was complicated anyway, and he thought a lot along the way, but he didn't seem to think about anything. After returning to the hotel room, he found that Pirneau had not returned, and Ji Ruoxi was still in a coma.

This transformation technique of the dragons is indeed very magical, it seems that they have really turned them into humans, and even their physical structure is exactly the same as that of humans, which is why the methods taught by the Templars can work so well for Ji Ruoxi. And this is probably the reason why these dragons dare to walk in the human kingdom with confidence and boldness, and the little girl of the dragon clan even dares to drill into the church without any scruples.

After Norman and Chen Qinghe chatted for a while, Ji Ruoxi still didn't wake up, but Pirneau finally returned.

The two-bearded painter came back with a suitcase, the box was closed, and I don't know how the paintings inside were selling, but Norman could already see the result from Pirno's face: although the painter in front of him, although he immediately pulled the corners of his mouth and laughed when he saw him, it could be seen from the corners of his eyes, his eyes, the uncoordinated curvature of his mouth, the muscles of his cheeks, etc., that Pirno's mood was very depressed now.

"Not a single painting sold?"

Norman asked, looking at Pirneau.

Pirno was stunned for a moment, his expression changed subtly, and then he opened his mouth to speak, but Norman blocked his words, "I know, thank you for your hard work." ”

Then Norman told Pirneau to go to the next room and put it away, and sat there and thought about it.

Everything was as the Templars had expected, or even worse, for Pirneau had failed to sell a painting for a large price, not even a single painting, and he wondered how the painter had managed to settle in the art capital in the first place.

Judging from today's situation, Pirneau's side can not be counted on, so now it seems that there are only two paths left in front of him: first, as the Templar Knights wish, give up Chen Qinghe, which is the safest and safest for himself, and second, choose one of the several methods he thought about before, and find a way to collect all the materials to save Chen Qinghe, which is more risky than the first method.

The two thoughts kept fighting in Norman's mind, and the ping-pong fight kept going, but his face was unwavering, as if he was in a daze, until Pirno came from next door, and his eyes cleared and he made up his mind.

It was impossible for him to sacrifice himself to save Chen Qinghe, but he couldn't do it by letting him watch his only friend die like this, so he finally made a compromise decision: get a sum of money and buy all the materials he needed to make an antidote to save Chen Qinghe.

Compared with making money, the risk of robbing and stealing is still a little greater, and those materials are not concentrated in one place, and it is likely that something will happen before a family steals it all.

As for the way to quickly make such a large sum of money in a short period of time, it seems that the only thing he heard in the tavern was the news he had heard before.
