Chapter 5: Momiji Collar
There are dragons in this world, he knows this, rubbing the smooth scales, Chen Ye couldn't help but guess that the ice dragon in Stoff's mouth was about forty meters long.
He thought back to the description of the dragons in his mind, but there was only a little bit of it, which was not useful information at all, but there was a sentence that seemed to exist like a theorem: the dragons may not be the strongest race in this continent, but they must be one of the strongest races in this continent.
Storf obviously didn't expect this prince to know much about the dragons, as long as the prince knew that the dragons were powerful, maybe this was the pride of all the Rhine, and Steff knew that the Rhine had always been so arrogant.
"I thought it was just an ice dragon scale passing by by chance, but it turned out to be even more unbelievable than I thought. Storf looked at Kegula again, frowning slightly: "This is Munir's second contract beast, plus his original wurm, so I can be sure that Munir is a double dragon priest." ”
Chen Ye ate the roast mutton in one bite, without any seasoning, and the taste was really not good.
He sneered in his heart, this Munir may be really powerful, but he has not left the kingdom, it is obvious that something is restraining him, but this has nothing to do with him, after all, he is not a king.
"Storf, you know, I may be leaving the royal capital tomorrow, and you may have to follow me to a new place. He directly diverted the topic: "My father asked me to choose my own territory, this kind of thing related to you, I want to inform you in advance, the territory I chose is the Red Leaf Territory." ”
Stoff was suddenly stunned: "Your Highness, are you talking about the Red Leaf Collar where the Goblin Wasteland is located?"
His tone was a little wooden.
"It seems so. Chen Ye thought for a while and said, "There is indeed a huge wasteland there. ”
The Red Leaf Collar is a territory that Chen Ye has chosen after thinking for a long time, this territory is only separated from the Terran Endless Forest, and there are often human adventurers or merchants who pass through the Endless Forest and pass by the Red Leaf Collar to the Orc City, in Chen Ye's opinion, this is undoubtedly the best territory in the ideal.
"But your Highness, don't you know that it is an abandoned place of the kingdom? Stowl looked at Chen Ye with a bitter face: "There are filthy goblins all over there, the number is annoying, they are like the gopher ronin of the mouth clan, they will dig the goblin wasteland into a thousand holes, they will appear anywhere in the wasteland, including the unprotected vault, the theft of the treasury of the national prince last year, there are rumors that the goblins are capable." ”
Chen Ye ate the last portion of mutton, drank a sip of milk, took the napkin handed by the maid and wiped his mouth: "Having said so much, you are just worried about those goblins." ”
"Your Highness, although those goblins are weak, they are indeed unguardable. Staught hurriedly said: "There are many of them, even if you kill a batch, they will immediately come up again, and they will be wiped out." ”
Chen Ye looked up, he always felt that this butler seemed to be a little alarmist, if the goblin was so difficult, how could the human race almost wipe it out?
The small, emaciated body of the goblins would be blown down by the wind, and even a mouthful rat-man seemed to be stronger than these goblins.
According to the orcs, a single sneeze can knock out a bunch of waste.
"How do the locals defend themselves against these goblins?"
"I've heard that the locals are looking for stone forests to live in, and sometimes they even build their houses directly on top of the boulders. ”
Chen Ye thought about it, it seemed that the treasure house of the palace was built on a huge stone, which was a huge stone that was transported to the royal city by almost a legion, and it was incredibly large.
"What about those foot merchants?" Chen Ye asked, "Could it be that they will also live on the boulders, there don't seem to be so many boulders in the wasteland, right?"
"This ..... I don't know very well. Stoff shook his head: "Those merchants are very cunning, and they value this news about their money as much as life. ”
Chen Ye frowned: "Won't you force you to ask, those businessmen who oppress civilians are not a good thing?"
"Your Highness, each of those merchants has the figure of the nobles of the kingdom behind them, and it is almost impossible to extract a confession. Storf reminded.
"Who are the nobles?" Chen Ye was curious: "For example, ......"
"Your father, brother, Your Highness!" said Storf, blinking.
Chen Ye played with a wall bamboo, thoughtfully, most businessmen will give up part of their interests to find a strong backer for themselves, or it can be said that they will rely on these backers to make a lot of money, and some businessmen will even engage in public resentment boiling.
And a small part of them are unqualified, unable to catch up with the relationships of those big people, and are struggling to survive in the cracks.
And these people do have some means, each of their business is not too big, overt or covert, even if they encounter robbers, they only need to throw away all their money, and they can save their lives without much loss.
In the eyes of the orcs, this is cunning, but for these merchants, it is the best way to reduce losses.
So how exactly do these merchants guard against the greedy goblins?
Thinking of this, Chen Ye suddenly got up.
"Go, Stoff, Kegula, come with me out of the palace. ”
"Wait a minute, Your Highness. Stoff got up in a bit of a panic: "You're not going to arrest a merchant and torture them, are you?"
"Why do you want to arrest it? Why torture it?" Chen Ye looked at the butler in front of him, well, no, he should be called Stoff, he asked with a slight smile.
"Do you want to do business with these cunning and treacherous merchants, Your Highness?" said Storf.
"That's right, it's business. Chen Ye smiled even more: "By the way, talk to them about ideals and life." ”
Patting the somewhat sluggish butler on the shoulder, after a few steps, he suddenly paused and turned back and asked, "By the way, I've always had a question, lovely Mr. Butler, haven't you Fawkes always been known for being cunning? Why do you care about these cunning businessmen? Can they have Fuchs?"
"What?" said Storf.
"Why are you so stereotyped, aren't you a cunning Fawkes?"
Storf's face was full of inexplicability: "Your Highness, am I rigid, and why does Fawkes have to be cunning?"
Chen Ye: "......." is indeed the most cunning race in the orc kingdom.
The royal city is not only large, but also the commercial and economic center of the entire kingdom, of course, for these orcs can never understand the meaning of the commercial economic center, let alone the importance of this word to a country.
Chen Ye was followed by not only Stoff and Kaigula, but also a team of palace guards and knights, about more than ten people, the prince's exit from the palace was not a big deal, but the prince's safety must be guaranteed.
Each of these more than ten knights is a warrior who has come down from the battlefield, and they all have their own merits, and they have all been given the title of kingdom by the king, and they are considered nobles of the kingdom.
