251. The Miner and the Aristocrat5

"Cheer up, boys! The situation of three days ago will not be encountered once in a hundred years, not everyone dares to directly rush into the Marquis's Palace, think about it, Lord Philip is a great magician, you boys have taken a shit luck to be able to meet the great magician, this is your glory, stand up your waist, you are the ones who have survived under the great magician, don't disgrace Lord Francis!"

Although there were some strong words, Samaria's words still made the guards at the gate of the Marquis Manor cheer up one after another, and tried to stand up straight, trying to show their heroic side.

What Lord Samaria said is not wrong, although it was Lord Philip who took the initiative and did not continue to attack, but, no matter what, we did confront the Great Magician, and we did survive under the Great Magician.

The thought of self-deception gave the guards a little more confidence, and they couldn't help but raise their heads and stop their chests.

Still, Samaria felt a little upset, what was Otto doing standing stupidly in the middle of the gate?

"Hey, Otto, what's the matter with you kid, didn't you see everyone back at work, why are you standing at the door in a daze?"

Samaria is a little unhappy, usually this kid is very clever, why didn't he react at all when he lectured today.

This is in the army, if you don't do what the official tells you to do, you will be beaten up.

"Hey, Otto, did you hear me!"

Samaria roared again, and found that Otto was still not moving. Step forward and get ready to kick this guy in the ass.

As soon as his feet were raised, still hanging from his office, Samaria stopped, stunned, and looked ahead in disbelief, just like Otto.

A large wave of miners is coming to the Marquis's Palace!

Meanwhile, in the conference room of the Marquis' Palace, Francis waited like a fighting for Egbert on the other side of the table, and on his side was filled with the same richly dressed as him. A nobleman with all kinds of gold and silver ornaments hanging on his body.

The corners of his mouth twitched. Francis seemed to be tempted to explode a few foul words, but finally endured it, and turned his head to look at the elderly noble mine owners beside him, as if he had received some kind of affirmative answer from the eyes of his companions. Ultimately. He nodded ruthlessly. "Okay, Egbert, about the difference. Let's take a step back, the wages of miners in the provincial capital city of Ankud can be increased by 20 percent!"

Egbot's face was also relieved, although he had taken the initiative to reduce the amount of wages raised, and also treated the miners differently, but he was not very sure whether the nobles would agree to this matter, and his heart had been going up and down just now.

As Francis said "good", the atmosphere in the room seemed to ease down instantly, and Philip, who was sitting in the middle of the conference table, laughed: "Everyone, the first step of the Long March has finally been taken, congratulations!"

Francis also had a smile on his face, "Your Excellency is right, this negotiation is really like a long march, fortunately, this most difficult first step has finally been taken, and we finally see hope." ”

I have to say that Francis still has some ability, just this mind that can afford to let go is admirable, not everyone can still talk and laugh after giving up a large piece of interests.

Of course, this is also due to Philip, in these three days of arduous negotiations, he acted as a mediator, whenever the negotiations reached an impasse, Francis and Eggbot were angry and unwilling to talk about it, Philip would temporarily change the topic, arrange for the two sides of the negotiation to have afternoon tea together, or the three of them go for a walk in the garden or something, to re-harmonize the relationship, so that several negotiations on the verge of breaking down came back to life.

Egbot also had a positive attitude towards Philip's actions, and he also had a good impression of this envoy from the central government, and even joked at the moment.

"I think that, at this rate, in a few days I will be able to go back to being my miner, and the soft bed and delicious food in Mistress Francis's house will be none of my business. ”

"Haha......"

In the conference room, everyone laughed with Eggbot very tacitly, and the atmosphere here was completely relaxed, as if a group of old friends were chatting.

"Phew!"

The door was suddenly pushed open, and Samaria ran in breathlessly.

"Big, my lord, it's a big deal, the Marquis' Mansion is surrounded by miners!"

"What!"

Francis and Egbot said in unison.

"You play yin for me!"

"No, I told my brothers to go back, Wright?" Egbot asked with a frown, glancing at the strong man beside him.

"Brother Egbot, I have already said to Gendik that I will go back to the brother's door who was ambushed in the manor, and I have watched him leave with my own eyes. ”

A middle-aged nobleman beside Francis with swollen eyes and a blue face immediately roared angrily: "Egbot, you actually ambushed people outside, it's so shameless!"

"How do we know if these despicable nobles will deliberately lure us over and then kill us, are you still deceiving us! Blake, at the beginning, you mentioned the salary increase, and in order to make us rush to work day and night, you promised to give you double wages, but in the end there was not a single copper coin!"

"Shut up, you mud leg, that's just a temporary order, people didn't add it later, I'll send it to you!"

"Then don't talk big in the first place!"

......

Seeing that the quarrel was erupting again, Philip shouted in a deep voice: "Shut up! Let's go outside and have a look!"

Philip looked at Francis and Egbot, and the two representing the nobles and miners also looked at each other and nodded.

The people at the heart of the negotiation understood that it was normal for Egbot to leave people outside, and it would be a fool to walk into the enemy's base camp if there was no follow-up move.

But the problem is that although the negotiations were bumpy, they were still going smoothly according to the plan, and it was not good for the miners to instruct people to make trouble at this time.

"Bang dang!"

An iron pickaxe slammed into the iron door of the Marquis's Palace, making a loud noise, and Valk was brute force, and this knock caused the iron door to sink into the manor, making people suspect that the long log that served as the latch would soon be directly interrupted by Valker.

"Let Big Brother Egbot come out!"

"You despicable nobles, don't detain Big Brother Egbot!"

"Let go!!"

As soon as he walked out of the mansion of the Marquis's Palace, Philip heard a desolate roar, which seemed to be full of endless sorrow.

Philip turned his head to look at Eggbot, how could the people outside think that he was being held here?

An ominous feeling haunted Philip.

Today's business is definitely not simple!(To be continued......
