Chapter 305: On the Impossibility of the Mercenary Union
"Hi John. When Will and Li Mo greeted each other, there was an unconcealable tiredness in their voices: "We are discussing the plan for the next step in Twilight Hills, do you want to listen to it?"
"You've been discussing it for a long time?" Li Mo frowned and looked at Will's appearance, "You need to rest, Will." ”
"It's nothing, we're leaving soon, there are some things I want to decide before I leave. Will rubbed his red eyes and yawned heavily, "Karui has been waiting too long, we need to get out as soon as possible." ”
"What are you discussing?" Li Mo looked at Will's appearance, and couldn't help but feel a little guilty in his heart, some of these things were originally done by himself.
It's just that doing things by yourself is too casual. Therefore, these things that were originally planned to be discussed were left to Will and them.
Unexpectedly, in order to solve these problems as soon as possible, Will tired himself like this. Thinking of this, Li Mo was a little embarrassed again: "What are you discussing, can you tell me?"
Hearing Li Mo's words, Will seemed extremely happy: "I have long wanted to ask your opinion, but I can't find you." ”
At this point, Li Mo's face was a little red. However, Will did not mean sarcasm, he patted his face to make himself feel more energetic, and continued: "It just so happens that now Victoria and Charles are here, let's discuss it together." ”
"Charles, what about the others?" Li Mo looked at it, but did not see Charles.
"Just now Charles was tired, so I asked him to go and rest first. Victoria rubbed his brows, and at this time, he was also a little tired: "After we leave, Charles will implement the plan that was made before." ”
"I'm coming. At this time, there was no need to shout, and Charles came down from the upper floor. His hair was disheveled at this time, and he didn't look like he was resting well.
"What are you discussing, it takes so long?" Seeing the appearance of a few people at this time, Li Mo didn't bother to discuss with them the questions left by someone, and asked them about the things they discussed. It must not be easy to make these people spend so much time discussing.
"It's about the Mjolnir mercenaries, and we're going to be living in Twilight Hills for a long time, so we can't let these mercenaries just eat and die. The Raging Ox Tribe is busy growing crops, and I want to find something for the mercenaries to do. Will yawned as he answered Limer's question.
And this question happens to be what Li Mo is concerned about. So, he asked, "Well, do you have the answer, what are you going to do with the mercenaries?"
"Come to think of it, there are too few things for mercenaries to do on this barren plain. Will was a little distressed: "There is no mercenary union here, and it is impossible to get them to take on the task." ”
"Then, on weekdays, what do people do when they encounter difficulties?" Li Mo thought of this question. The mercenary union came into existence because the mercenary union provided a solution for people who were in trouble.
And if there is no mercenary union, after people encounter difficulties, they can only find a way to solve them by themselves. As for the lords who are counting on the nobility, I am afraid that the nobles do not have time to care about the trivial matters of the commoners under their rule, and what they are concerned about is always whether the taxes can be collected on time.
"This side of the barren plains is much better than the Human Alliance. Each of the clans that ruled the city was concerned about the stability of the city, and it was forbidden to fight privately in the city. Moreover, if there is a case of homicide or something, the city rulers will intervene. Vittorio explained the situation on the barren plains: "And some small things like lost items have to be found by themselves. ”
Li Mo thought for a moment, "Isn't there anyone who wants to establish an organization similar to the Mercenary Guild on the barren plains?"
Regarding this, Li Mo didn't believe that no one would think of it. No one does not understand how much value the mercenary union can create every year. Moreover, more importantly, it is not only the wealth created by the mercenary union, but also the large number of mercenaries controlled by each union is a huge force. No one should be underestimated.
In fact, there are people who have thought so. However, before the plan was implemented, it was discovered that this was not realistic. So, before it even began, everything about the Mercenary Guild of the Barren Plains was over. Victoria shrugged, looking a little helpless.
Seeing Victoria's expression, Li Mo probably had a guess in his heart: "Could it be that the person who wants to do this is you?"
Looking at Li Mo's narrow smile, Victoria nodded and admitted all this calmly: "Yes, the mercenary guild has existed on the Onesek continent for a long time, and after the Hidden Ones came to the Barren Plains, I also wanted to rebuild this organization in the Barren Plains. ”
"But the situation in the barren plains is not like anywhere else. Most of the cities here are built on the basis of tribes or groups of tribes, so people solve problems more by family affection or friendship. And not reason. Victoria shook his head: "Besides, the management of mercenaries is also a big problem. The mercenary union of the Human Alliance, the masters behind it, are mostly the royal family of their own country. In this case, it can ensure sufficient deterrence against mercenaries. And we, there is no such deterrent, because our numbers are too small, and it is impossible for the powerful to cope with hundreds of thousands of mercenaries. ”
"That's important. Li Mo nodded: "If the mercenary union does not have a deterrent effect on the mercenaries, then it is better not to form it, and when the time comes, the gathered mercenaries will make a big mess." ”
"In fact, the trouble is not just that. Vittorio's words were not over: "The human kingdom, no matter how small a country is, can rule no less than dozens of cities, in this case, no matter which country they are registered in, the mercenaries can ensure that they have enough tasks to make a living. And what about the barren plains?"
Speaking of this, Victoria spread his hands: "Every city has its own master, and every family is intrigued. If there really is a mercenary union, the mercenaries who can only accept the tasks of one city, ha, will probably starve to death. ”
Li Mo also felt speechless when he heard Victoria say this. What Victoria said was real. The differences between the barren plains and the human alliance have contributed to this situation. In the short term, these are unsolvable problems.
"So, what do you want the mercenaries to do?" asked Li Mo. [.]
