"Misunderstanding?" Meng Han's voice was still as calm as before: "Actually, I think it's also a misunderstanding. As soon as Meng Han's words fell, two ground thorns suddenly appeared on the ground and quickly disappeared. Then, with a wave of Meng Han's hand, the soldiers who suddenly appeared and surrounded everyone immediately left the tavern in a neat line, leaving only the few people that Meng Han had brought with him when he came in.

Joey and Julie just pressed their hands on the hilt of their swords, standing beside Meng Han on the left and right, without moving. However, Meng Han could imagine what kind of blow the two women would be caused if there was any change in this group of people just now.

Meng Han was still sitting in his original position, but when others looked at him again, it was no longer the same as the original contemptuous gaze with play. The short arrow just now had made it very clear that anyone standing here, including the middle-aged man, could take their lives at any time as long as Meng Han was willing. Even if a middle-aged man can block one, he will definitely not be able to block several at the same time. What's more, the light of the magic shield that had shone on Meng Han's body, as well as the sudden appearance of the ground thorns, had already shown that the lord of Huangsha Town, Lord Baron, who they had always thought was easy to bully, was by no means what the legend was.

"There are some things that can only be said and not done. But there are some things that can only be done but not said. Meng Han smiled at the young man, and after saying this, he turned to the middle-aged man's side: "Did you say?"

"Yes, my lord!" The middle-aged man who had just broken out in a cold sweat was no longer as calm as before, and the arm holding the sword could finally be put down, but everyone could see that the hand that had blocked the arrow just now had begun to tremble slightly at this moment.

"I'm sorry, because of a misunderstanding, I broke one of your shields and a sword, and I will pay you for it. Meng Han pointed to the seat next to him and motioned for the middle-aged man to sit down.

"Don't dare, don't dare!" The middle-aged man honestly approached and sat down, put the sword in his hand on the table to avoid suspicion, the tip of the sword pointed at him, and the hilt of the sword was put on Meng Han's side: "I thought this sword was not bad, but I didn't expect it to be vulnerable! During the time he spoke, it seemed that the middle-aged man had settled down and decided what kind of attitude to use to face Meng Han.

"The son of the big man?" Meng Han didn't look back, stretched out his hand and pointed in the direction of the young man behind him: "Follow you out to practice?"

"Yes, the lack of experience made the adults laugh. The middle-aged man reluctantly admits that in fact, it is easy to understand. In terms of strength, young people are definitely not the strongest among them, those who are tough can only sit around, no need to ask, they must be of high status.

"Young man, a little more vigorous, understandable. Meng Han nodded, as if the two of them didn't know how many years they had been acquainted, and there was a little bit of guidance to the juniors: "It's okay to teach, you can eat indiscriminately, and you can't talk nonsense! If everyone didn't think it was a misunderstanding today, maybe there wouldn't even be a chance to speak, don't you say?"

What else can a middle-aged man say? There seems to be nothing else to say except nodding with a smile and a bitter smile in his heart. As for the young man who was still arrogant just now, he was still pale and immersed in fear at the moment, and he still said half a word.

What Meng Han said is good, some things can indeed be done, but they can't be said. For example, in some places, mercenary guilds actually enjoy certain privileges, but everyone knows it, and no one will make a big deal about it. Only that young man didn't know that the sky was high and the earth was thick, so he would say such arrogant words. At least the middle-aged people knew how much trouble it would bring to the Mercenary Guild if they were to talk nonsense.

Reaching out to pick up the middle-aged man's sword, Meng Han took it in his hand and looked at it carefully for a while, then turned around and handed the sword to Joey: "Repair this sword, it's very good steel." ”

"Yes, sir!" said Joe, who reached out to take it, but did not leave, for someone came in from outside, leaving with a sword.

Taking the opportunity of Meng Han's careful observation, the middle-aged man himself also took a closer look. The short arrow completely pierced the all-steel saber, leaving it on the spine. Because the speed is too fast, the whole is embedded in the spine of the sword, and it can't be pulled with force, you can imagine how strong the bow that shot this arrow is, it is not a natural minotaur Hercules of the beast race, and it is estimated that it can't be pulled away. It's even possible that the minotaur won't be able to pull away.

"Very good skills, it's been many years since I traveled south and north!" Meng Han stretched out his thumb to the middle-aged man opposite, holding the sword in one hand, but he was not shaken off by such a huge force, and the strength of the middle-aged man's arm can be imagined. And being able to detect danger in advance and react in advance also directly shows that the middle-aged man is definitely a master, and it is even possible that Joey and Julie are not necessarily opponents.

Strictly speaking, Meng Han was still a little jealous of this middle-aged man. However, the current situation, the sudden strong performance of Meng Han's side made the momentum of the two sides change immediately, and the situation that should have been a strong side and a weak side on the other side fell one by one. But if it really forces the other party into a corner, it is difficult to say who will win and who will lose.

Meng Han didn't want to turn his face with the Mercenary Guild, with his current strength, it was okay to deter these people in front of him, if there was really a big man from the Mercenary Guild, Meng Han would definitely not be able to provoke him. The other party probably saw this too, so he quickly regained his composure and confidence.

Neither side wants to escalate the situation, and this is the basis for bilateral negotiations. Meng Han also began to chat as if he were at home.

"It cost a lot of gold coins to get this transfer document from the city lord, right?" Meng Han asked with a smile as if he cared about an old friend, but he didn't expect the other party to answer, and said to himself: "You have to manage it well, otherwise you will lose it." ”

"Yes, my lord!" From Meng Han's tone, the middle-aged man heard a hint of change, it seemed that Meng Han did not mean to kill them all, and he couldn't help but feel happy in his heart, and that kind of professional smile appeared on his face again.

"So, you see, what is the appropriate tax rate for this quarry?" Meng Han then threw out another question, but he threw the most troublesome question to the middle-aged man himself, asking him to set the tax rate by himself.

"Well, my lord, isn't that appropriate? With the lesson just now, how dare the middle-aged man say it himself, once he is charged with a tax rate of about the lord by Meng Han, it will be another big trouble: "This, we have to work hard for the adults themselves, we will never dare to overstep our responsibilities." ”

"It's easy to say, it's easy to say. Meng Han's language has changed to that of a businessman: "We here, the ordinary tax rate is five percent, but I know very well the stones of your quarry, it is a luxury, I will raise it a little, not too much, right?"

"Not too much, not too much!" The middle-aged man is what Meng Han says at the moment, first solve the matter in front of him, and then talk about the future matter, as for how to solve it at that time, that is a matter for the future.

"Luxury, double it!" Meng Han smiled slightly: "Then tentatively set it at ten percent, and then adjust it when it is not suitable in the future." What do you think?"

"Huh?" The middle-aged man obviously didn't expect that Meng Han had been strong for so long and actually gave such a tax rate. Ten percent, in other cities, that is, the most ordinary tax rate, even if Meng Han used the reason of doubling the luxury tax rate, he did not say that it really embarrassed these people. The dozen or so people from the Mercenary Guild around him looked at Meng Han with an incredible gaze, as if they were looking at a fool.

"My lord, what do you command, please explain it together!" The middle-aged man didn't realize that Meng Han was a fool, from the beginning to the present, where did Meng Han show a little stupidity? On the contrary, it was the son of a certain big man who everyone in the guild agreed that the future was limitless, and he was played by Meng Han from beginning to end. Meng Han gave such a low tax rate, obviously there was some quid pro quo.

Meng Han didn't speak, but glanced at the people around him, and then waved his hand: "Nothing to do, exit the tavern." Originally, the mercenaries who watched the excitement were shouted by the lord like this, but no one had any objections, and Hulala retreated. When the middle-aged man saw it, he hurriedly asked his men to withdraw, and soon, there were only a few people on Meng Han's side left, as well as the middle-aged man and the young man just now.

"It's very simple, in the future, your guild will only need not interfere in the affairs between me and the Stormwind City Lord. "Meng Hanti's request is indeed simple, so simple that the Mercenary Guild doesn't have to do anything, just make a fortune in silence. Such a good thing, it seems that the mercenary guild has taken a big advantage.

On the contrary, when the middle-aged man heard Meng Han's request, he began to ponder. The quarry is a joint benefit that the city lord gave up after they accepted the great favor of the Stormwind Castle Lord, on the condition that they support the Stormwind Castle Lord. However, what Meng Han just showed, in addition to the powerful weapons, there are also two magics, and this matter needs to be carefully considered by the middle-aged man.

"Okay!" In the end, the middle-aged man weighed it again and again, nodded and agreed to Meng Han's proposal. The mercenary guild opened a branch in Stormwind City, which already explained the attitude of the guild, and the rest of the things, no matter how much support they had, the mercenary guild would not directly send people to fight Meng Han, anyway, they just didn't do anything in the future, and there was no big difference. The middle-aged man decisively agreed to Meng Han's request.

"Happy cooperation!" Meng Han picked up the wine glass on the table, picked it up, and faced the middle-aged man.

The middle-aged man learned about a major event, his mood was relaxed, and he happily picked up the wine glass, touched it with Meng Han, and drank it all.

"We'll be able to talk about it, what do you two call them?"
