Chapter Eighty-Six: Bustling Travel
As the Walter was about to sail into the Plum River, Sayles came to Pete's room. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
"To be honest, I'm very disgusted with the Dawning Church, and I don't know what your plans will be after we send you back to China. Sayles said to Pete.
"What can I do. It was nothing more than liaising with vassals loyal to my father, as well as influential families, and then organizing an army to drive out the Dawning Church. ”
"What are the odds?"
Pete smiled bitterly, spread his hands and said helplessly: "Hardly." Throughout the history of the mainland, all the regime subversion planned by the Dawning Church has been planned for a long time, and unless the three major countries intervene, it is impossible to rely on the remnants of the country's own power to turn the tables. However, this is my home and I have to deal with it. ”
As he listened, Sayles played with the dagger in his hand, but the impatience on his face grew heavier. I didn't see any movement from Sayles, but I heard a "duh" and saw the dagger stuck against the wall in the cabin.
"I have a grudge against the Dawning Church, you are a national hate, and I am a family hate. Let's be honest, you think you're smart, but I'm not a fool to survive until now. You can find us in so many mercenary groups in Beihai Town, it must not be for nothing. I'm curious as to where a down-and-out aristocratic son learns about our prowess, but that's okay. But here, I tell you honestly, although I would like to set foot in the Dawn Church, don't think about using us for nothing. Since we are mercenaries, we must abide by the principle of taking money to do things. ”
Pete's color was stunned, and he said sincerely: "What I am waiting for is your words." As for how I learned about the strength of your regiment, it's a complete coincidence. After I was exiled to Beihai Town, I overheard someone in a tavern talking about the birth of two Title Warriors and a Magus in one day in the Maes Guild of Alfne. and learned that one of them was named Sayles, and he was not very old. At that time, I also sighed in my heart that there was such a young hero on the mainland. ”
"Later, when I was looking for a mercenary group, I learned that the name of your group was the same as the name of the newly promoted warrior. After many inquiries, another dwarven title warrior and a maiden magister also corresponded to the two deputy leaders of your regiment one by one. ”
After hearing this, Sayles touched his chin, and he didn't think that my prestige would spread so quickly.
Pete thought for a moment and said respectfully to Sayles, "I don't know how much your group is asking for." ”
"Our Sails mercenary group, including me, has two newly promoted title warriors, one magister, two top warrior strength, and the rest of the average is close to high-level warriors. Now it's not about what I'm asking for, it's about what kind of task we're facing. Sayles said lightly.
Of course, Sayles would not let Pete know that the original purpose of their original coming to the Duchy of Meihe was to cause chaos to the Dawning Church. Since there are immediate benefits, we must of course strive for them to maximize the benefits.
"Help me get back to my country. ”
Sayles smiled and said, "I don't think this mission will succeed. ”
"Add your words, there is hope. In the Principality of Meihe, even if my father was killed, there is still a three-name warrior level, and the loyalty is absolutely reliable. At present, the Church of Dawn has occupied the principality for a short time, and it should not have completely digested the various forces in the principality. If I promise a benefit, I can definitely win their support. Pete said as he stared at Sayles for a moment.
"Army, I want to know how many more troops you can control. ”
"Forty percent of the entire army of the principality, forty percent of the army, I have absolute certainty that I can control. Coupled with the private armies of the major families, if the major families are not stupid, they should know what will happen to them after the success of the Dawning Church. ”
Sayles was slightly surprised in his heart, he couldn't imagine that this Pete could control so many troops, and he still underestimated him.
"20,000 gold coins, pay 10,000 as a deposit, I took this task. However, I declare in advance that we will do everything in our power to help you succeed in your recovery, but if we fail, we will retreat as soon as possible. The deposit is non-refundable. Sayles had an extra gold coin in his hand at some point, and he kept flipping and jumping between his fingers.
Pete frowned, and said with a little dissatisfaction: "Captain Sayles, is this price a little too high?" You know, even if I hire the Lion King mercenary group to help, the price should be higher than this. And you won't deny that their strength is definitely stronger than yours. ”
Sayles smiled, "First, the Lion King Mercenary Group is indeed stronger than us, much stronger, but their headquarters are in Mead City, and it will take more than two months at the earliest, and it will not be able to solve the near fire." Second, I can tell you very clearly that the Lion King Mercenary Group really won't necessarily go to war with the Dawning Church, don't ask me how I know. Third, behind the Lion King mercenary group, you, as a prince of the principality, should know that it is the Legtitimis Dynasty, don't forget the lessons of the Vanderley Kingdom. ”
"There will definitely be a war when the country is restored, and after the war, whether it is to restore production or to compensate the people, money is needed. 20,000 gold coins, I can't take it out at all. Seeing that Sails did not answer, his eyes were always fixed on the flipping and jumping gold coin, he gritted his teeth, made a ruthless decision, and continued:
"Two thousand gold coins, plus a small gold mine that can be mined for a hundred years, two countdom titles and corresponding domains. ”
"Although there are fewer gold coins, the sincerity is good. Escort Prince Pete home and drive out the Church of Dawn. This task was taken over by our Sails mercenary group. ”
"It was a pleasure to work with. ”
"Happy working together!"
Both hands were clasped together and both were smiling. It's just that Pete's smile is relieved, and Sayles's smile is like a little fox stealing a hen.
That night, Sayles gathered the other four people together and told them about the matter, and the four of them had no opinion, after all, the tone of the trip had been set before leaving Beihai Town. Now it's just a matter of marveling at Sayles' potential as a profiteer.
