Chapter 735: The Du Chadenden Family
The atmosphere in the restaurant was relaxed, except for Barty and Suya, who were glaring at Sindy, everyone else laughed at the cute Walnut, but this guide didn't feel at ease, let alone Downton, even Twilight and Charlotte could kill themselves in minutes.
"No, I didn't poison it, I just added an underground specialty anesthetic juice to my lunch, and it won't have any effect on my body!"
Cindy hurriedly explained, with a flattering smile on her face, if she was strong, she would not be so downtrodden as to be a guide to make money, and she could only use this kind of indiscriminate tricks to the point of yin people.
Downton looked at Xia Luo, among the group, the virtuous wolf, who was the great potions master, had the most right to speak.
"She's not lying!"
Xia Luo didn't care at all, cut a little steak with a knife, put it in her mouth and chewed, and then gave an evaluation.
"There must be no problem, otherwise how dare I serve it?" Tanan rolled his eyes, "Don't worry, I added a herb to neutralize the anesthetic ingredients!"
"Huh, you're that good?"
Hu Tao was surprised, but still stuffed a large piece of roast meat into his mouth.
"I'm also a celebrity chef who has been mixing underground for decades!" Tanan was very depressed about his lack of reputation as a chef.
"What are you going to do after poisoning us, stealing this ship?" Su Ya asked, "Or did you fall in love with your master's spoils?"
"I don't mean anything else, I just want to invite you to go to Mosoblay City for a seat!"
Cindy explained with a smile.
"You're a dark elf?"
Hu Tao's eyes widened, and she looked at Cindy carefully.
Morsobrai is the home city of the Drow Elves and is home to the eight families that control the entire country, where the eight great families who control the entire country are all living in a daily scene of killing and intrigue, because the Queen of the Drow Spider is the god of the chaotic evil camp and loves death and betrayal the most.
on the mainland. The city is notorious for not having any slave hunters venture into it, even if the Drow elves could sell for a sky-high price in the human realm.
Drow is hostile to a surface race, and his favorite thing to do is to hunt down other intelligent creatures and give their souls to the Rose Spider first.
"Then Miss Guide, would you like to introduce your origins?"
Downton made a gesture of please. He then ate slowly, and if he couldn't get a satisfactory answer by the end of lunch, he would break the woman's limbs and leave the ship behind.
"No problem, first of all, I am from the Duchaden family, which is at the bottom of the eight major families, although the nouns are not very good, but the strength is not weak, and I am not as hostile to the surface race as other families. ā
Cindy tried to calm down, not wanting to be underestimated. But her trembling voice still revealed her nervousness.
"Don't worry, speak slowly!"
Tanan poured a glass of water and placed it in front of her.
"This can be seen from the fact that I am the guide, except for the Drow of the Chalkden family, the others will not talk to you at all. ā
Cindy wants to build a good image first.
"You're a guide just to make money?"
Sissi asked.
"Many industries in the underground have been divided up by the eight major families, and because our family is weak, the things we get are only enough for those descendants to eat, not to mention our distant relatives. I can only find a way to find food to eat on my own. ā
Sindy smiled wryly, racial hatred? That's the drow with their full stomachs. Like me, I wish there were more surface people who came underground, so that there would be more opportunities to work.
"Tsk, there's a gap between the rich and the poor!" Downton teased.
Generally speaking, poverty is the most likely to induce hostility and social contradictions, which in turn lead to war. As long as there is a little inducement, these drows at the bottom are the best source of soldiers, but it is a pity that the gods of the dark elf belief are too fond of infighting, so these families fight every three days, and the five big fights are big. In addition, there is no invasion of foreign enemies, so most of the energy is wasted on internal friction.
"You invited us to the family to be a guest, did you want to talk to us about business?"
Twilight interrupts Downton's emotion and asks the central question.
"Yes, at first I just wanted to be a guide and make a fortune, but after seeing Downton's heritage, I think we can become strategic partners, to be honest, the underground resources are very rich, if sent to the surface, it will definitely be a big profit, but there has been no market. ā
Cindy smiled wryly.
"Hehe, you're really a fringe figure in the family, no, maybe not even a fringe. ā
Twilight shakes her head and laughs.
"What's wrong?"
Barty was puzzled.
"It's true that the dark elves are hostile to the surface races, but they don't dislike money, and they want to enjoy a luxurious life, where does this come from? ā
As Twilight, I have read a lot of information, so I know a lot of insiders, such as the Ban Rui family, which is now ranked first, and it is by relying on underground trade with the Twilight Empire and the St. Gertland Empire that they have accumulated enough strength to rise to the throne in one fell swoop.
"Then you can say it well, why poison?"
Hu Tao pouted, she actually had a good influence on Cindy, but now it was all ruined.
"No way, the reputation of the dark elves is terrible. ā
Cindy put on a depressed expression, in fact, she lied, if the cooperation could not be negotiated, she would not mind killing people and buying goods.
"I'm going to grieve you to stay in the war space for a while. ā
Downton waved his hand, there was no need to listen to it anymore, how much information can this kind of miscellaneous fish know?
"Lord Downton, please pay a visit to the Chalkden family, I am willing to be the guide, and I am confident that you will be satisfied with the harvest when the business is done. ā
Cindy was smart enough not to resist, just a hard persuasion.
Homer gave Cindy the Ring and threw her into the war space to accompany the Drow Assassins she had captured earlier.
"What are you going to do?" Sissi pushed the plate away from the plate in front of her, even though she knew that the toxin had been neutralized, she still couldn't eat it, "Tanan, help me bake a sturgeon again!"
"No problem!"
As long as it is cooking, Tanan likes it very much.
"Don't go, that city is too dangerous. ā
Juliet was the first to persuade that the drow elves were notoriously lewd ~, even regardless of the other party's race. Even if it is a monster, it is acceptable, and the most terrifying thing is that they use dark spells, which can pass and absorb the life essence of each other.
Any male who has slept with a dark elf will be obsessed with this feeling of ecstasy. It's like being infected with drugs ~ addiction, even if you know that you will die, you can't help the impulse in your heart.
"I'm going, I want to see what the dark elves live like, the martial arts chief of the Fighting Tower, the night sacrifice that serves the spider queen in the dark temple, all of them are very powerful beings, by the way, and the Wax Melting Demon. It is said that it can transform into any creature, and I want to catch one and raise it!"
Hu Tao chewed on the beef, afraid that Downton would not see it, and raised his left hand high.
"Downton, you're a billionaire now, and you don't lack that little money, so I advise you to stay away from Morsoblay, which is a man's grave. ā
Sissi feared that Downton couldn't resist the temptation. Die in the belly of the Dark Elf, with his abundant life essence. It is estimated that the eight housewives will not be able to resist climbing into his bed.
Downton looks at Twilight, who is the only one in the group who has a visionary vision, and the others speak purely according to their personal preferences.
"Do you think there's a lot of money? When you take down Frankfurt, you'll find that the army wants money. Infrastructure costs money, and the commoners need money, and it's literally open to you everywhere, unless you want to be a tyrant who extorts tyrants, but then you won't be able to do more than three years as king. Twilight slowly slices through the beef. I remembered those years, "Governing a country is so tireless, sometimes you just want to die in those many texts." ā
Sissi glanced at Twilight and guessed her identity, a civilian wouldn't have access to these things, but these words were true, it was not easy to make a territory prosperous, let alone a country, if it wasn't good, it would cause a riot and kill a lot of people.
"Are you going to build yƬ I'm going?"
Downton put down his knife and fork and listened solemnly.
"In fact, it is most convenient to trade with the dwarves, but this trade route has been controlled by those wealthy families, and with your strength, you will definitely not be able to intervene, so it is better to find a way from the side of the dark elves. ā
Twilight looked at Downton, "Although the Duchaeden family is ranked eighth, but as the head snake, they still have good strength, if you deal with them well and become the first collaborator, the future benefits will be great, but no matter how you choose, this trade road will be stained with blood in the future." ā
"Homer?"
Downton turned to the Grimoire.
"If a country wants to develop, in addition to war and plunder, it is to develop a monopoly of trade, not to mention the former, Frankfurt is just a third-rate country, not to mention the monster called the Saint-Gertland Empire next to it, that is, the position that is chased by many countries can squeeze you to death, as for trade, Frankfurt does not have any special products, and it is not competitive in the market, so the only way to get out is underground trade. ā
Homer is also a polymath who has lived for tens of thousands of years, and his vision of the problem is very accurate, even if this route develops and makes other countries smell wealth, Downton may not be able to keep it, there is no way, the deterrent power of third-rate countries is too small.
"I'm thinking about it, there's still a lot of time to get out of the ground anyway. ā
Downton couldn't decide, he was a commoner after all, and his education prevented him from having this kind of strategic vision.
The two continents are connected by karst caves and tunnels, and the battleship cannot fly, but fortunately, there is still room for war in Downton, otherwise it will not be possible to take the Ancient Spear out at all.
Because there were too many demons to equip them with mounts, the group was slow, and he was finally starting to feel the pressure of being overcrowded.
Not to mention the armor and weapons, as well as the monthly salary, the daily meal fee alone is a jaw-dropping figure.
"It can't go on like this. ā
As she watched the gold coin pour out of Downton's wallet, Twilight couldn't sit still. (To be continued......)
