Chapter 105: The Tavern (4)
The winner does not need to apologize, the loser needs to reflect. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
This sentence fell on Lu Bin, and it was also fully reflected, especially that he was a winner both in terms of moral justice and righteousness on the surface and in substance.
The recent battle with the Vigilant Eye Church caused the Safalfa Tavern and the nearby streets to collapse in a large area in the aftermath, but none of this cost fell on the head of the "Mage Rez".
Not only Paulus, the highest-ranking tribune present, thought so, but even the onlookers who were doing good things in the neighborhood also did not care who was responsible for paying for the repairs.
Lu Bin also knew that his appearance just now was too eye-catching, and after a wave of strong spiritual impact caused by Shui Jie Lanya, a transition period was needed to relieve the people, so he turned around and walked into the Alfalfa Flower Tavern without saying a word, and picked up the senior thief whose body was half ice and half wood.
"This person appeared just right, without his personal experience, he would not have been so quick to deter the people of the church, even the officials of Blackwater Town did not dare to move in the slightest, I have to thank this gentleman. ”
Lu Bin's way of thanking is to throw the half-dead thief directly into the burial place, and his landing point is also very peculiar, even lying on the edge of the "Elven Waste Capital Elundelle", the woodened half of the body is still full of green grass, and the half of the body frozen by ice is stuck in the place of death where the negative energy is about to overflow.
The aristocratic girl Nina Wilde has long since disappeared, and Lu Bin doesn't know when she slipped out of the Alfalfa Tavern, "Maybe it's not started yet, and when the tribune's squire and knight just entered and fell to the ground, there must be a loophole in the encirclement of the Vigilant Eye Church." My retinue is not from a knight family, and even if I escape, I have my own unique secrets. ”
He returned to his room and gently brought the door to the door, and the onlookers outside were kindly persuaded to leave by the "belated" guards of the town office, of course, the process was indispensable with fists and kicks, and occasionally the sound of slaps, each more crisp than the other.
Dangerous people hiding among the common people, including the bosses of the underworld, intelligence brokers who like to make deals, and cultists who have obtained treasures, are the most obedient and quietly departed.
They have the most intuitive sense of the order behind Blackwater and its true power, so these people who know how to be in awe leave the scene as quickly as possible.
On the contrary, it is a mediocre person who knows nothing about real power, because he is greedy for the artifact-like brilliance of the Water Ring Lanya, and stands in place like a nail, and even some of them want to take advantage of the chaos to sneak into the Alfalfa Flower Tavern and try to contact the "Mage Rez".
Even though the previous example was close at hand, they all wanted to see the rare ring up close, so they were very dissatisfied with the persuasion of the guards of the town hall, and there were many people who resisted on the spot.
It wasn't until they were hit with sticks on their heads, their eyes were covered with red blood, the pain of their wounds was really felt, and the taste was not so pleasant, that the courage disappeared as if the tide was ebb.
The owners and operators of the tavern, as well as the partners who came to the site one after another, had something to do with Lord Nell Austin, otherwise they would not have been able to establish their own business in the center of Blackwater.
Paulus, the tribune, knew the men, and although he was very sympathetic to their plight - forcibly expelled from his estate by the Vigilant Eye Church, most of his thoughts were on the "mage Rez" who stayed in the tavern.
How to deal with this person has not only become a problem for Lord Paulus, but also for the lords of Blackwater and the real talking bigwigs.
After the curtain came to an almost perfect end on this incident, all who knew the value of power knew that the retreat of the Vigilant Eye Church had become a symbolic milestone, and at the same time, the idea of wooing and fighting for the unexpected appearance of "Mage Rez" was also aroused.
The first to try to get in touch with the noble Earl Conrad, a nobleman who had his domain in Bagen-Uttonburg and the vast Black Forest, was not only the powerful Earl of the Great Council of the North, but also one of the supporters behind Lord Nell Austin.
Expanding into the Razor Hills, Earl Conrad is actually trying to establish a buffer zone for the safety of his own territory, so that part of the considerable military expenditure he invests every year can be withdrawn and invested in the increasingly prosperous industrial and commercial industries to obtain more profits.
Therefore, Count Conrad has planted many chess pieces that can be used at any time in Blackwater Town, the political and economic center of the pioneer territory, and will be activated as soon as he finds an opportunity.
Lord Nell Austin knew all about this, but these people were behind the backers, and they continued to coexist with each other in order for the nascent Pioneer Lords to survive the most difficult start-up period.
The first person to ask Paulus, the tribune, to meet Lu Bin was the aristocratic buyer Derek, who had a close relationship with him.
The Venerable Earl Conrad personally gave a clear order, and when the big names behind the scenes were playing against each other, he preemptively tried to win over the "Mage Rez".
Therefore, when Lu Bin saw the first "guest" to visit the door, he immediately understood that his every move might fall into the eyes of the big people, or be included in their field of vision as soon as the incident happened.
Lu Bin didn't have the idea of waiting for the price to sell, since he noticed that the "order" in the north was so unfathomable, and the degree of strictness was also controlled by the most chaotic nascent pioneer territory, he quickly let go of his reserve.
Acquaintances met, and after a brief greeting, Lu Bin shook the hand stretched out by the senior buyer Derek, that is, the friendship of Count Conrad.
Later, as for why the water ring Lanya, a quasi-artifact kept in the capital of the Elven Kingdom, Elondell, appeared in his hands, and could be familiar with the mastery and use, Lu Bin was silent and even reluctant to talk about it.
Derek, a veteran buyer, didn't want to inquire about other people's secrets, but according to Count Conrad's instructions, he asked about it routinely, and since he was prevaricated by the reason that "Mage Rez" did not match the preface, he immediately changed the topic.
The conversation quickly turned to the road construction that had just been successfully tendered, and the vital interests of the veteran buyer Derek, especially the fact that he had witnessed the massive collapse of the streets in the area around the Alfalfa Flower Tavern, and he had no doubts about what Lu Bin had said earlier.
"The essence of the special road construction technique is to shorten the overall coordinated operation of the construction period. There are preliminary preparation materials, planning suitable routes, especially for the ground substrate in different areas, which is naturally damaged in the weather and seasonal changes, and the preparation of buried materials in advance, and then the potential erosion and damage of plants on both sides of this two-way open road, special treatment is carried out for the foundation, and it is necessary to ensure that weeds do not grow for more than ten years or even decades......"
Derek, the buyer of the aristocracy, was confused, unaware that there was so much to learn from building a road alone.
"Your Excellency, what you have just said is entirely capable of establishing a whole new discipline and establishing yourself as the undisputed authority in this field. ”
Lu Bin, who was born as an architectural designer, used his industry knowledge before crossing to bluff the indigenous Derek in a daze, which was crushed in all directions across several eras.
At this time, Lu Bin undoubtedly inherited the glorious tradition of the traverser, Ridler, Nigra, and Tris were possessed by their souls at this time, at this moment, he was not fighting alone, he was not alone!
Lu Bin, a traverser, stood on the shoulders of the giants of civilization in the information age, looking down on the feudal aristocracy in the agricultural age, and a sense of superiority arose.
"Mr. Derek, you are responsible for negotiating with the nobles' agents, and I will personally inquire into the construction of this road, and make sure that it is put into use as soon as possible. ”
The veteran buyer was very satisfied with this arrangement, but he thought that the "Mage Rez" who showed his true strength would be involved, and some of the overt or covert obstructions would definitely be much less, so the smile on Derek's face never stopped.
Now that the other party is satisfied, it is now Lu Bin's turn to put forward the conditions: "Of course, no matter how much I am interested, it is impossible to cover everything in the long road construction project, so I will summon some friends to help, most of them are from the forest." ”
Lu Bin threw away a "you understand" look, and the buyer Derek immediately remembered the relevant legends, he was also a confidant who had followed the powerful nobleman Count Conrad for many years, knew a lot of secrets, and secretly thought about it.
"The forest elves of the north have been silent for many years, and finally they are no longer silent, and it has to be said that it is a wise strategy to choose a human who can be trusted as a bridge to connect the two sides to establish friendship. From this point of view, the artifact that could only be used by elves was handed over to this mage Rez as a necessary guarantee, as well as a certificate of trust and some kind of identity. ”
Derek, the buyer, nodded heavily: "If it's a friend of Lord Rez, even if it's from the forest, I don't have any problems here." ”
Lu Bin got the promise he wanted the most, and stretched out his hand without hesitation: "Thank you!"
"Happy working together!"
