Chapter Forty-Seven: Move a Chair and Sit and Watch
This team, when it approached the territory of the thieves, had already been noticed by Ronald's men. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć Ever since Ronald took control of the Hydra Thieves, he has ordered that a group of people must be sent out in shifts every day to carefully monitor everything on the trade routes.
First, it is to prevent passing caravans from being missed, and secondly, it is also to avoid trouble coming to the door.
Nishizawa led the team back here again, Ronald soon received the news, they didn't seem to hide their whereabouts, a group of people were mighty, but they were not in a hurry at all, just like playing in the mountains and rivers, for fear that others would not notice them.
Ronald ordered a group of people, but there were not many of them, and more than twenty people came to the mountains on both sides of the trade road to wait for them.
The twenty-odd men were divided into two groups and hid on the mountains on either side, with Duruna also following him, and that Cullen, out of Ronald's desire to promote him, also let him follow him.
"Yo, isn't this Young Master Nishizawa, it's been a long time, is the ransom ready?" Ronald stood on the west side of the mountain range, looking at the team condescendingly.
When the members of the more than 20 thieves group saw that their group leader had spoken, they all stood up from their hiding places, shouted incessantly, and pulled out their weapons in their hands.
"Damn the bandit, it's him! He's the one who has tarnished my reputation, and I'm going to kill him with my own hands. Nishizawa stayed in the center of the team on horseback, and when he looked up and saw Ronald, his face suddenly changed, and a hint of murder appeared.
The short-haired young man on the side smiled 'hehe', looked up at the bandits on both sides with interest, and said, "Nishizawa, don't worry, we can't lose the temperament and demeanor of the aristocracy." And don't you forget what the purpose of this visit is, mainly to redeem your men, and you don't want them to have an accident, right?"
"Of course, I won't forget the purpose of this time, but I must kill him, I swear!" Nishizawa nodded vigorously, his face pale.
"Of course, the glory of the Angelo family can not be tarnished by these bandits? The Phyrexian Knights will give them a little color to look at. As for this guy who humiliated you, cut off his limbs first, and then hang him among the mountains. ā
Nishizawa gritted his teeth, stepped forward, and looked up at Ronald: "I've already brought the money, let them all go for me!"
Ronald stood on a high place, stretched out his hand and rubbed his chin, his eyes swept over the team, and he sneered: "When I don't have eyes?
"Despicable country bandits, how can you know the background of our nobility with your crude knowledge. The short-haired young man stepped forward and stood side by side with Nishizawa: "It's just 14,000 gold coins, will we still deceive you because of this money?
Nishizawa snorted coldly, and took out a dark gold money bag from his arms, the money bag is made of unknown materials, it looks shiny and charming. I saw Nishizawa open the mouth of the money bag and dump it towards the ground, and two heavy metal boxes suddenly fell from the money bag and smashed to the ground.
These two money bags are the size of a palm, but the metal box that fell out of them was at least the width of a strong man's shoulder, and if you didn't see it with your own eyes, it was really hard to imagine that these two boxes could fit into such a small bag.
Ronald's eyes lit up, and he said in surprise: "Space bag?"
"These two boxes, each box contains 7,000 gold coins, now hurry up and release my people, if you dare to break the contract, today will be your death!" Nishizawa gritted his teeth as he watched as Ronald rushed up and took a bite.
Ronald glanced at everyone in the team, sneering and then winking at Duruna.
Duruna nodded, took a detour and climbed down the mountain wall, and soon reached the center of the group.
"Let my people check it first, after all, it's more than 10,000 gold coins, so everyone should be careful. Ronald said loudly from a high place.
Ronald's words made the faces of everyone in the team change suddenly.
Especially Nishizawa and the short-haired boy, their faces became the most ugly.
Nishizawa raised his finger and pointed at Ronald tremblingly: "You...... You dare to question the credibility of our Angelo family, I, I will duel with you!"
"Is the reputation of the Angelo family worth a lot, more than 14,000 gold coins?" Ronald rubbed his chin, thinking about whether to use a dagger to shave the stubble that grew today, when he heard Nishizawa's words, he couldn't help but sneer: "If reputation can be used as money, then why do you need money?"
"Duruna, you must check it carefully. The honor of the nobles is very important, if there is a gold coin missing, we must make up for it on the spot with our young master Nishizawa, otherwise it will not insult the reputation of the Angelo family. ā
Ronald's words silenced everyone below, who wanted to refute but didn't know how to refute. You can't say that Ronald farts, right? Could it be that the Angelo family really cares about a few gold coins?
"Check, check carefully, I can't let go of a single gold coin, this is the credibility of my Angelo family...... The credibility of our family ......" Nishizawa gritted his teeth, and his hand holding the reins turned white.
Duruna looked at Young Master Nishizawa's face, and threw himself to the ground in his heart for Ronald's admiration, which of these noble young masters was not arrogant, but he didn't expect to be blocked and speechless.
After silently giving Ronald a thumbs up in his heart, Duruna opened the box and began to check the gold coins inside.
Piles of gold coins are neatly stacked in boxes, and it is not difficult to check them.
"Someone, go back and bring me a chair, such two big boxes of gold coins, it is estimated that it will take a long time to check, the noble young masters are riding horses, and your regiment commander can't stand still." Bring me a big chair, I'll sit here and wait today. ā
Cullen on the side was very eye-catching, and as soon as he heard this, he immediately responded, pulled his legs and ran to the lair.
Duruna originally wanted to do a rough inspection of the rows and rows, but when he heard Ronald's words, he didn't understand the meaning, so he stopped his palm, pinched the gold coins from the top, and began to check them carefully one by one.
"One coin, two coins, three coins...... Six gold coins, seven gold coins...... Fourteen gold coins, fifteen gold coins......"
Duruna pinched the gold coins and counted them one by one, and there were words in the innermost part, as if he wanted to make them hear.
Young Master Nishizawa's body shook slightly, his face turned pale, and he almost fell off his horse.
The short-haired young man also had a sluggish look, and he could still see the previous high-spirited spirit at this time, and he only felt that his mind was dizzy for a while: "If you continue to check like this, when are you going to find out? Haven't you learned arithmetic? Can't let us stay here until dark." ā
Duruna raised his head and smiled honestly: "This noble young master, I am from a poor background, and I have learned arithmetic there, so it is good to be able to write my own name." Don't worry, I'll count quickly, and I'll be fine in no time......"
"Huh, how many did I count just now?" Duruna stretched out his hand and scratched his forehead, and said with a distressed expression, "Forget it, let's count again." ā
"One gold coin, two gold coins...... Four gold coins, five gold coins......"
Duruna counted silently, but in his heart he had already begun to laugh wildly. Once upon a time, he had also seen the demeanor of these noble young masters, but how could he ever play with them like he did today?
He was happy in his heart, not counting money, but being able to play the heirs of these big aristocratic families for a good time.
The happier Duruna became, the slower he counted the money, and he had a simple expression on his face, cautious, as if he were afraid of counting it wrong.
"Damn bandits, filthy, nasty, disgusting bandits! Nishizawa, I finally know why you want to kill them so much, you're right, this filthy thing should all be hanged. The short-haired boy gritted his teeth, and his palm holding the reins tightened slightly.
Damn it, don't they know that it's a tiring thing to ride a horse for too long? Aren't they tired of galloping and just sitting like this, legs apart?
If I had known, I wouldn't have ridden a horse, I should have come by carriage!
However, their original plan was to wait until the hostages were redeemed and immediately start killing people, and completely wipe out this group of thieves from the Valentine Mountains.
After a while, Cullen carried a chair and galloped back, carefully placing it behind Ronald.
Ronald nodded with satisfaction and sat down, the old god was there, looking quite enjoyable.
With a flattering smile on his face, Cullen took out a cowhide water bag full of mountain spring water from somewhere and handed it over, extremely courteous.
Ronald took the water bag, opened the stopper and took a sip, the winter mountain spring water was cool, but with a hint of natural sweetness, the taste was quite good.
"Okay! It's so comfortable, that's what life is called, sitting here resting, drinking water, and watching the caravan obediently deliver the money to their own hands, there is simply no more comfortable and enjoyable profession in this world. Ronald took a sip of mountain spring water, and his mouth was slurking.
The short-haired boy was riding on a horse, looking at Ronald enjoying himself, he was simply angry. Growing up so big, with his family's heritage, power and wealth, no matter where he goes, he is a VIP existence, when has he ever been as humiliated as today.
"Phyrexian Knight, this guy really deserves to die if this guy doesn't take us Ferdinand and Angelo so seriously, and when this damn deal is over, I want you to grab him with your own hands and send him to me and Nishizawa. ā
"I ...... I...... I'm going to stab him to death with a sword!" said the short-haired boy through gritted teeth.
Hearing this, the Phyrexian knight nodded silently, and subconsciously stroked the hilt of the sword on the side of the horse's ass, staring at Ronald as if looking at a dead man.
Duruna squatted there and sneered silently: "Capture the regiment leader alive, unless this guy is almost gold-level, but if he is really gold-level, are you still cursing and complaining here? I'm afraid he would have killed us a long time ago, right?"
Duruna shook his head, thinking back to the sword that Ronald had slashed in the cave before, and the terrifying power still made him shudder when he thought about it.
"When they finally survived the handover of the prisoners, they suddenly made a move, only to find that the strength of the regiment commander far exceeded their expectations, tsk...... I really want to mourn for these two noble young masters! The Angelo family, the Ferdinand family, which of them is not the famous nobles of the Duchy of Lomons, how did they just meet the head of the regiment?"
Thinking and thinking, the speed at which Durunacha made money subconsciously slowed down.
