Chapter 83: Coercion (1)
If you want to ask the trading houses for their collection of high-level combat skills, I'm afraid it's like asking for their lifeblood.
After all, they don't have their own big knight powerhouse, it's just that the three major business houses have enshrined a big knight who is not very popular, and even the price paid can still make them feel distressed.
Therefore, the firm has always hoped to cultivate its own big knights in order to have more right to speak. However, every time he finds some good signs, he will be bought or intercepted by the forces led by the Morries.
However, as long as you have advanced combat skills in hand, you can always see some hope.
If Green wants to claim their hope of rising, he will have to make a lot of promises unless he is willing to send the entire Baiyun District away.
Because high-level combat skills can only be cultivated originally, they cannot be copied to others at will, and no one dares to practice the combat skills copied by hand.
For example, in the original book of Vientiane Rushing that Green cultivated, there are several pages at the beginning of the portrait depicting the elephant-headed god Sasani fighting, which is infused with the author's understanding of his power.
Not to mention the Dou Qi running route inside, if it weren't for the original, there would be a slight skew when copying, and I wouldn't know what danger would happen when I cultivated.
Because of this, it is difficult to spread high-level combat skills, and they are real strategic resources, and basically no one will sell them too much.
At present, the cost of obtaining advanced combat skills from the channels of the commercial banks is too great, and he cannot afford it.
"However, if it was Thea, he might be able to come up with a few sets of advanced combat skills. ”
Green thought to himself.
As a top family that dominates the north, there are a few heavenly knights in charge, and even the top combat skills are estimated to be a lot. After all, knight academies like Julu City still have a set of furious flame destroying combat skills, not to mention a behemoth like the Xiu Mister family.
A few sets of advanced combat skills are nothing to him.
It's just that he already owes a lot of favors to Teya, and at this time, it seems too greedy to ask for another set of high-level combat skills with the strength of the knight rank.
If you owe too much favor, it will be difficult for you to be independent in the future.
Green thought about it for a long time, but he still couldn't make a decision.
Fortunately, I made a contribution to the matter of the saint last time, and I still have some expectations in my heart. If you can give out a set of high-level skills as a reward, it doesn't matter if it's even the weaker one.
As long as you can help Wolf break through to the Grand Knight first, the rest will be talked about later.
After thinking about it for a while, Green put these things in his mind for the time being, closed his eyes and rested back in his chair.
At this time, in the south of the city, in the Plantagenet Trading House, several sneaky figures mixed in.
Fran sat behind the counter, holding a few ledgers and calculating the firm's recent earnings.
When she was in the trading house, due to the busyness of things, in order to make things easier, she most of the time simply wore a white shirt with a corseted waist, and only a little lace at the cuffs as embellishments. He wore ordinary black tight pants and flat leather shoes, and his hair was tied back casually, which made him look very capable.
Even though he is dressed so plainly, his bright appearance still attracts the attention of many customers, and customers who go back and forth to check out can't help but take a second look. Many young people tried to strike up a conversation but were politely and firmly refused, and the flowers and gifts sent were returned in good condition.
Many people rumored that Fran already had a crush on him, but no one knew who it was.
"Sister Fran, give me two silver coins, there is a fruit candy seller on the street, it looks very delicious!"
A nimble, short figure ran in from outside the comptoir, cut through several crowds, jumped up and threw himself on the counter, and spoke eagerly to Fran.
"No, your pocket money this month has already exceeded it, and there is not a single copper plate. ”
Fran straightened his face and smacked Dolan on the head with a pen.
"It's only two silver coins, please, I haven't had a snack in days. Dolan pleaded with her weeping face.
When Fran saw that he was about to cry miserably again, she ignored him, lowered her head and continued to settle the score.
Dolan lay on the counter and begged for a long time, seeing that Fran was still indifferent, he couldn't help but snort, "If you don't give it to me, I'll go to Brother Green to ask for it, I heard that Brother Green's martial arts hall has made a lot of money, and he is much more generous than you." ”
With that, he jumped up and down and swaggered outside.
"Stop, where are you going?" Fran hurriedly got up and stopped him.
"Go to Brother Grimm and ask for money to buy snacks, didn't you also buy a cart of gifts from him last time?" said Dolan confidently.
"You ......"
Fran was choked up for a moment, unable to speak.
Dolan became even more proud when he saw it, and said with his little hand: "If you don't give it to me, I'll ask Brother Green for it, anyway, he will be my brother-in-law in the future, and you should honor me a little." ”
"What are you talking nonsense, don't even want your pocket money this year!"
A blush flashed across Fran's face, and she glared at him fiercely, and lowered her head to reach out of her pocket and slapped two silver coins on the table.
Although he knew that Dolan was scaring himself, it would be bad if he really wanted to run to the martial arts hall to make trouble.
Hey. Seeing that his goal had been accomplished, Dolan laughed treacherously, jumped up, grabbed two silver coins, and ran out.
Seeing this scene, Fran shook her head helplessly, sat down again and continued to calculate the accounts.
In the corner of the comptoir, a pair of greedy eyes were watching Fran from afar.
Especially when Fran got up, the proud figure that was inadvertently revealed made him breathe rapidly.
Judging by the clothes on his body, he is also a buddy of the trading house. Although his appearance is okay, his face is gloomy, and people can't help but be wary of it at a glance.
It was Tur who had made a provocative remark when Green came to Julu City to take a ride.
Soon after his return, Duncan made an excuse to demote him from an officer to an ordinary man because of his ill intentions against the firm, but for some unknown purpose, he remained in the firm.
"Damn!" he slammed his hand on the nearby shelf.
Originally, as long as he endured for a few more years and joined forces with a few dissatisfied old people in the firm, he could slowly take control of the firm, and then he could marry Fran with this.
Who knew that on the way back from the caravan this time, he was a little excited, so that Duncan could sense his thoughts about Fran, and found a reason to demote him to a buddy, trying to force him to leave by himself.
Unexpectedly, he just didn't leave, and Duncan didn't want to go too far, so he still left a mouthful of food for him to eat.
He didn't hate Duncan, but he hated Green.
If it weren't for him, he wouldn't be so ashamed. Especially when Fran faced the attack, the performance of the two made him unable to raise his head, and even Fran looked at him like a fly every time, making him feel ashamed.
"Why is he doing so well and I have nothing!" Tur became angrier the more he thought about it.
The news of Green's rise has long been known all over the city under the publicity of the commercial house, and now it has opened a big martial arts hall, laid a foundation, and the chaos is booming.
This made him go crazy with jealousy, especially every time Green came to find Fran, the happy look on her face made him secretly tremble with anger.
Now the gap with Green is getting bigger and bigger, making him understand that if he doesn't make a move, he won't have a chance, but Fran has always been very wary of him, so he has no chance at all.
As he stared at Fran desperately, he didn't notice that several people behind him were secretly watching him.
Several men looked at each other, nodded, and quietly gathered around from behind, covering Tour's mouth with one hand, and at the same time reaching for a knife against his waist.
"Come with us honestly, if you dare to speak up, you will die!" one of them whispered to him viciously.
"Mmmmmm
Tur nodded hurriedly, signaling that he would not resist, and begged the other party not to hurt him.
Although I don't know why the other party arrested him, it's still a matter of life. He didn't want to resist at all, he took the initiative to cooperate with a few people to walk out of the trading house, for fear that others would find out and cause them to kill people.
He was held hostage until he came to a small alley, and only a few people let him go.
A knife ran across his neck, and the sharp touch made his hairs stand on end.
"Say, what is the relationship between that woman in your firm and Green from the Baiyun Martial Arts Pavilion?"
A man asked viciously.
Frightened by the knife in his neck, Tur told him all he knew before he had time to think about it, from the time Green got on the caravan to the last time Green came to the carter.
"It seems that that woman does have a lot to do with Green, and I don't know if if I can make Green obey if she catches her. ”
"Perhaps, but it's better not to do it lightly, so as not to alarm Green, and I'll have to go back and ask the boss about it. ”
Several people discussed in a whisper, and unconsciously loosened the knife around Tour's neck.
At this relief, Tour's mind immediately came alive. It looks like these guys are here to deal with Green, but they're going to catch Fran......
After struggling for a while, Tur made up his mind and said loudly: "Several, if you want to arrest Fran, I can help you, I am very familiar with the trading house, and I am sure to trick her out!"
"You?"
Several people looked at him suspiciously and said, "You don't want to deceive us, the garrison in this area often passes by here, and we don't dare to do it easily." ”
Seeing that several people were suspicious, Tur gritted his teeth and said: "I guarantee that what I said is true, as long as you promise to give her to me to enjoy after the matter is completed, I will fully cooperate with you!"
Hearing him say this, several people reluctantly believed his words. After discussing for a while, they settled on a contact information and let Tours go, but they threatened him with some intimidation and forbiddenness.
After repeated reassurances, and matching his sinister appearance, the crowd nodded and let him go.
On the way back, Tour's face flushed, his eyes filled with excitement, and he was excited that he was about to fulfill his wish.
And after several people in the alley watched him leave, a trace of mockery flashed in their eyes, "This kid, even the woman of the Baiyun Pavilion owner dares to make up his mind, he is really impatient." Even if we catch her, we have to take good care of her, in case we hurt the green who caused the lead, no one can please her. ”
"Okay, let's go back and report this to the boss first, it's not up to us to decide whether we do it or not. ”
Several people nodded and left the place together.
That evening, a letter of invitation was delivered to Green's desk.
