"Although we merfolk are a race that lives in the sea, we also need to trade with the land race in terms of materials, so," Archibald, who felt that Wang Xu's question was very boring, replied to Wang Xu angrily: "We need to establish a few trading strongholds on the coastline, of course these strongholds need to be guarded, and the captives of the land race are more suitable for guarding those strongholds than ourselves." Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info”

"Oh...... That's right, that's good," after listening to Archibald's explanation, Wang Xu nodded lightly in response, and then, Wang Xu asked Archibald in a low voice: "Since we have known each other, then, we can also do business in the future, you know, I like to do business very much." ”

"That's no problem...... "Although Archibald has always been Wang Xu's captive, but, because Wang Xu has always been good at wine and meat, so that he can live a beautiful life, so he is not so hateful to Wang Xu, in his opinion, if he falls off, Wang Xu is his own captive, he will never treat Wang Xu like this, so ......

"Good ......" Wang Xu replied faintly after a "weird" smile.

While Wang Xu was chatting, Yaheng Baker and his men finished all the matters of the prisoner exchange, and since Archibald really didn't want to stay in Hill City any longer, they left the city directly after finishing their work.

Wang Xu went out of the city to send Archibald and them for a distance, and, according to the agreement with Alex, he secretly gave him a black iron space ring containing 500,000 gold coins.

Before leaving, Wang Xu also whispered in Alex's ear: "Be careful......

Of course, Wang Xu didn't expect his provocation of Alex to really cause civil strife among the mermaid clan, but Wang Xu felt that since there was a glimmer of hope, no matter what, he had to do 100% of his efforts, or if he didn't work hard, it was estimated that he wouldn't even be able to grasp that glimmer of hope.

Finally, Archibald, the second prince of the merfolk tribe who had been imprisoned by Wang Xu for almost half a year, was taken away by Alex, the messenger of the mermaid tribe, after this farcical prisoner exchange ceremony.

When Wang Xu led a team of 1,000 Praetorian Guards to send the spearmen of the mermaid tribe out of the city, and returned to the square in front of the palace, he found that the big chief of the cat people and the two small chiefs of the minotaur tribe had arrived.

After a few polite words, Wang Xu asked the three chiefs of the orc clan to take their respective clansmen away, and at the same time, he also handed over the slave contracts of those people to them, and then, Wang Xu handed over the captives of the fox clan and the captives of the centaurs to the fox girl Jasmine and the centaur staff Adya to manage.

Since Wang Xu's relationship with the centaur and fox tribes is really bad, and because these two races are small races, there is really no need to please them, so he decided to leave those centaur and fox captives and not release them.

After the settlement of a small number of captives, the most important problem came to the more than 7,000 Naga captives.

After Wang Xu first asked Miao to place the more than 1,300 people who were unwilling to leave in Miao's sky-high mage tower, the remaining more than 6,000 people were directly sent out of the city by Wang Xu and waited in line at the city gate.

An hour later, after Miao had settled the more than 1,000 people and gone out of the city to join the captives outside the city, Wang Xu handed over the slave contracts of these people to Miao, and asked her to lead the captives back to the Endless Sea.

Before leaving, Wang Xu smiled and said to Miao: "Go early and return early......"

"Aren't you afraid that I won't come back?" Miao, who was riding on the back of the unicorn, asked Wang Xu softly.

"Are you willing?" Wang Xu learned Miao's usual tone and asked her back.

"I am reluctant to ......" sighed, and after saying what was in his heart, he turned the beast's head, waved his right hand, and led the captive army away.

When the captive army had disappeared to the end of the horizon as it marched westward, Wang Xu turned around and prepared to return to the city, when the sound of horses' hooves of "da, da, da......" came from a distance.

Wang Xu looked back, and a familiar figure was galloping towards him on a wonderful unicorn, it was Matilda, and she was back.

"What's the matter?" When Matilda grabbed the reins, stopped the unicorn, and jumped off the unicorn's back, and walked in front of him, Wang Xu continued to ask, "Forgot to take something?"

"It's not ......," after frowning slightly, Matilda casually threw out a roll of parchment.

With a "......snap", Wang Xu took the parchment roll thrown by Matilda, unfolded it, Wang Xu found that the parchment roll in his hand turned out to be Matilda's slave contract, and Wang Xu was puzzled that he had obviously returned this contract to her, why did she send it back.

"What are you ......" Raising his eyes at Matilda's slightly tangled expression, Wang Xu asked her puzzledly.

"I'm not leaving...... Matilda replied after tilting her head slightly.

"Why?" asked Matilda, puzzled.

"Need a reason?" replied Matilda, in an unhappy tone.

"Don't you need it......?" after a wicked smile, Wang Xu teased her, "Do you have a crush on me, so ...... However, I have to explain my situation first, there are a lot of women around me, and I personally think that you can't compete with them!"

"Don't stink!" After snorting angrily, Matilda explained, "I'm here to figure out something?"

"What is so important that you are willing to continue to be a slave?" Wang Xu asked her in a low voice.

"I want to know, why did I marry you?" Matilda replied.

"Do you still need to explain this, don't you have long eyes, I, suave and strong, which woman doesn't love me, don't believe it, you go to the city and ask, and pick up a random woman on the street, it's definitely a woman who loves me and can't do it......" Wang Xu continued to tease Matilda.

"Cut ......" After glancing at Wang Xu with disdain, Matilda responded: "I will find the answer myself, and before I find it, I can do things for you!"

With a "......snap", Wang Xu threw Matilda's contract back to her, and said indifferently: "Keep it for yourself, anyway, when you find the answer, you have to leave, at that time, you may not find me, and ......"

As he spoke, Wang Xu turned around and walked into the city gate cave, leaving only one sentence out: "Miao Mage Tower, you need someone in charge, if you want, you can do it, as for the salary, you can discuss it with Miao......"

"Strange ......" Looking at Wang Xu who disappeared into the dark shadow of the city gate cave, Matilda muttered quietly.

That night, when the moon was in the sky, Kay Wharton led his family, his henchmen, and the families of these henchmen, a total of more than 200 people, to stand in the middle of Wang Xu's courtyard, surrounded by magic lights......
