"Excuse me, do you have my seat here?"

When Nina Wild heard the polite inquiry, she looked up at an old face as cold as frost, and she felt the oppressive force of the big man, and she couldn't help but want to get up and give up her seat. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Lu Bin stretched out his left hand, put it on the back of Nina Wild's hand, and patted it gently, which immediately reassured her and kept smiling as she looked ahead.

As soon as he came up, he touched a soft nail, and the aristocratic buyer Derek was not good at using coercion, so he put his hand on the shoulder of the person who sat in front of the girl in the hunting suit, and squeezed out a soft professional smile on his face.

The man was the manager of the Chamber of Commerce attached to Lord Austin, and no matter his status, wealth, or influence, he could compare with the senior buyer, and immediately stood up quietly and gave up his seat.

Derek sat sideways and heard the host start counting down again, and since it was the competitor in the back row who had just bidd, he could only raise his hand again to increase the price.

Lu Bin didn't look at the fat sheep in front of him, and now he raised his right hand, his thumb clasped the curved ring finger and tail finger, and raised the middle two fingers, which were the two lowest price increase gestures.

"This Mr. Mage has bid two thousand one hundred silver coins, a full hundred silver coins more than Mr. Derek just now, let us applaud and encourage us. ”

The veteran aristocratic buyer immediately raised the price accordingly, he did not want to be underestimated by his peers and competitors present, and a man like him, who had served Count Conrad for many years, sometimes had face more important than anything else.

"Mr. Derek immediately counterattacked, and now that the offer has reached two thousand two hundred silver coins, I wonder how much this Mr. Mage can give?"

Lu Bin raised his hand again to live up to expectations, the same gesture, most of the people present couldn't help but look sideways, they estimated that this was the last stage of the bayonet, and they didn't want to miss it.

"Do you know, dear Mr. Mage, every time you raise your hand, I lose two hundred silver coins for no reason. ”

Lu Bin was unmoved, as if waiting for Mr. Derek's bid, the veteran buyer couldn't suppress his anger, like a bloody bull, and roared angrily in his throat.

"I don't know if I've offended you before, but we should be meeting for the first time. Since I can't talk about grievances, for Count Conrad's sake, I hope you can sell me a face, don't raise your hand!"

Lu Bin's raised right hand just froze in mid-air, but it only paused for a moment, and he still raised the price again.

"This new road must be let out, and the Earl of Conrad, knowing that he can't take it alone, has sent you over to stir things up, and who doesn't know that you are a gang, and he is simply playing everyone like a monkey. ”

Derek's face changed instantly, and he raised his hand to increase the price without hesitation, and then remembered something, and his anger disappeared a lot: "Don't be too complacent! Who knows where you are from?"

Then he immediately lowered his voice: "This matter is really strange! It was not my turn in the first place, what can I do in Lord Austin's territory? You should also be an outsider, what good idea is there?"

Lu Bin put down his hand, looked ahead with both eyes, and also lowered his voice: "Originally, I was ordered to snipe." Now I find that the water in it is too deep, and it has something to do with iron ore, and I don't want to mix it in. ”

Derek's heart sank heavily, it was related to the military manufacturing of Earl Conrad's domain, as well as the purchase franchise of the Earl family, he was very grateful to the mage in front of him for telling the truth, so he took out a money bag containing bribe money very interestingly and forcibly stuffed it into the hand of the noble girl beside the mage.

With the vicious eyes he has accumulated countless times, of course, he can easily see the origin of the hunting girl, and he automatically regards the competitor as the mouthpiece of a certain nobleman.

The sound of the gold coins colliding was particularly crisp and pleasant, and Lu Bin interlaced his fingers with his hands, and quietly said something that made Derek's heart tremble.

"The ownership of this new road is yours, and the hired labor and materials are collected from Lord Austin's Blackwater, and you don't want to monopolize it, it's better to cut it like a sausage and subcontract it out in several sections. After the bidding is over, find a few aristocratic business spokespersons at the venue, preferably those who have weight and can speak on the ground, and pull them in. ”

Derrick, the buyer, vaguely knew that there were many joints to be opened, but he didn't know that there would be so many points, and secretly sighed that the water in this industry was really deep, but now it was too late to regret it, and he had already fallen into it.

He had lost a lot of money from the bid just now, so the Earl of Conrad's valued cronies immediately targeted the "competitors" who knew the inside information.

Lu Bin saw his thoughts: "The people behind me, you don't have to think about it, you just need to know that I have special building paving skills, and I can build it three times faster than ordinary people." ”

Derek, the buyer, nodded slightly, but chewed thoughtfully on the information that the competitor had just revealed, intentionally or unintentionally.

"Building materials and craftsmanship, could it be Lord Edmonton, the master alchemist, who has a close relationship with the Mage Lord Felix family. I didn't expect it, I really didn't expect that it was just a road to shorten the distance between two territories, and there were so many forces reaching out, relying on Count Conrad to start with me, I really underestimated the heroes of the north. ”

Coming back to his senses, Derek thanked him apologetically, "Dear Mr. Mage, I hope to be able to gain your friendship, and at the same time I hope you can do me a little favor. ”

Lu Bin was originally just doing a one-shot deal, but seeing that the other party was so enthusiastic, he couldn't help but feel a little more strange in his heart.

"Yes, but a bag of gold will quickly wear up after a few spell trials...... Well, at least until then, I think I can help as much as I can, after all, we're friends now. ”

The two looked at each other and smiled as if the tension had not existed, and at the same time, since the last stubborn competitor had also conceded defeat and no longer raised his hand, the construction of the new road belonged entirely to the buyer, Derek.

"Two thousand five hundred silver Dele, deal!"

As the host clenched his fists and slammed the table, things could not be changed, but the venue, which had just calmed down, quickly began to discuss lively.

"More than the original price of two or a half, there is no profit to be made at all, but it has to be posted upside down, what is Mr. Derek thinking. ”

"There must be a hidden secret, not just as simple as building roads on the surface, regardless of commercial interests, it must be other benefits. ”

"Perhaps Lord Nell Austin gave the concession of the road to the contractor, allowing him to set up a tax card to tax the caravans. ”

Lu Bin heard the people nearby talking a lot, noisy like a vegetable market, frowning slightly, but did not show even a trace of dissatisfaction.

Without doing anything, he used the superb wrist of the white wolf with empty gloves to bluff a bag of gold coins from the bidder, which made Nina Wild, who was next to him, stunned.

"Let's go, the money is in hand, and there should be nothing for us here. ”

Lu Bin turned his head sideways and ordered, Nina Wild immediately got up and got out of the way, and he left the hall of the town hall converted into a venue without looking back, followed by a girl in hunting clothes who was happy and convinced.

Nina Wild retrieved his mount, which had been carefully tended by the guards, but instead of getting on his horse, Rez the Mage chose to lead the horse.

Lu Bin noticed early on that the streets of Heishui Town, even the most prosperous cross street in the center of the town, were paved with gravel and mixed sand directly on the mud, rolled through by horse-drawn stone cylinders, and rolled over to form a smooth road surface.

"In other words, if I just build a workshop and produce some cement, I can sweep through the construction industry practitioners in Blackwater Town and even the entire north...... The profits here are too lucrative, and they haven't achieved a certain status, and this is a hot potato, delicious but not to swallow in one bite. ”

Nina Wild followed the "Mage Rez" to lead the horse on the road where pedestrians were becoming scarce, and her agitated mood gradually calmed down under the cold night breeze, she suddenly remembered something, and immediately came to Lu Bin's side.

"Lord Rez, where are we going next?"

With the help of the hazy moonlight, Lu Bin's eyes approached the center of Heishui Town along the straight gravel road, and he looked ahead without looking back: "Find a tavern with a good environment and a hotel to rest." ”

Nina Wild's eyes lit up instantly, and she couldn't wait to ask, "A room?"

Lu Bin couldn't help but want to laugh, but he really couldn't laugh, "You think too much, two." ”

Immediately, he saw the dejected appearance of the girl in hunting costume, and secretly thought that he had accepted the maid who had not been around for a long time, although she was born in a noble family, her style was bolder than that of a girl from a civilian family. But at this time, he was still thinking about the scar on his forehead, so he didn't have this leisure.

The mark of revenge hanging on his body that could not be faded and transferred became a thorn in Lu Bin's heart, the dark wizard who was resurrected after death was snuffed out by himself as soon as he ignited the flame of life. The ups and downs of emotions, and the fear that he knew he could not escape before his death, finally made him do this kind of behavior that harmed others and himself.

"It seems that I will have to change a little bit in the future. To deal with the weird dark wizards, they must not be given the opportunity to use their secret hands. ”

Lu Bin suddenly remembered the strong man he met in the Broken Blade Tavern, and the revenge mark actually reacted to him, maybe this person carried demonic power.

Then Lu Bin thought that he was hung up by the dark wizard's revenge mark, and it was hard to guarantee that there would not be a kind of person who fell into the depths of darkness and embraced the source of evil to see through it, and then took bloody revenge on himself.

"It is said that fewer and fewer dark wizards are starting to join forces, and all of them have this tradition, except for the lords of the northern realm, who are heavily protected by mages, and even the great knights who step into the transcendent will inevitably break their blades. ”

Nina Wild seemed to see that "Lord Rez" was in a state of confusion at this time, so she didn't want to bother and shut up, quietly across a horse from Lu Bin, and looked sideways at the mage with a veiled face in the hazy moonlight.

"This man who is full of mystery, always so focused, serious, and gives people an inexplicable sense of trust, when will he be able to move his eyes to me?"

Lu Bin seemed to feel Nina Wild's burning gaze, so he turned his head sideways, and who knew that the aristocratic girl immediately reacted, pretending to look ahead as if nothing happened, so that he couldn't help but really want to laugh.

Retracting his gaze casually, Lu Bin took out the Book of the Brigade Mage, and the strong man Stuart, who was "teamed up" by him, was still staying in the Broken Blade Tavern a little further behind him.

He closed the book with confidence, hid himself in his cloak, pressed the elf's one-handed sword in his left hand, and walked towards the Alfalfa Tavern he had once visited.
