Coelho was just unlucky and happened to be involved, but he was far from alone.

All the noble lords who were not strong and participated in leading troops to rob the people were all pulled out of the list.

Almost at the same time, these people received gifts from the nobles of northern Xinjiang. There are only two ways in front of them, either to take over this friendship or to fight.

In fact, there is only one way.

I don't know if it's an intelligence mistake or a deliberate fault. The number of people proposed by the nobles of Northern Xinjiang far exceeded their actual gains, and some even exceeded the total population of the territory.

Hudson was lucky not to receive a cordial greeting from his neighbors. Obviously, the name of "Divine Bow Knight" still played a role.

……

"Knight Coelho, are you sure that you didn't lead troops to participate in the robbery, and the lord of Maple Leaf Town asked you to hand over a thousand people?"

It's not that Hudson is making a fuss, there are enough nobles who lead troops to rob people, and if they expand it, wouldn't they offend the local nobles within the two counties?

After the war, the nobles who were able to obtain fiefs in the land of the two counties were either defeated on the battlefield, or the comprehensive strength of the family was strong enough.

Someone like the Knight of Coelho, who inherits the family business, does belong to the soft persimmon. But as soon as people encountered a catastrophe, they came to the door to fall into the well, and they were not afraid of being sprayed to death by spittle stars.

Although it is nonsense to talk about pity and weakness in aristocratic circles, everyone still has to pretend on the surface.

In particular, the remaining connections of these families are the most willing to lend a helping hand and gain a good reputation at this time.

If it weren't for fame, a relative who couldn't be beaten and had never been in touch would come to the door for help, and Hudson would most likely be "not at home".

"Dear Baron Hudson, I can swear by the glory of the Ricks family that I have never led my troops to rob any of my lords. I haven't even been out in the last month.

You've probably heard about our family, whose elite were wiped out in the rebellion. If I hadn't gone out to visit my uncle, I wouldn't have escaped.

After the war, I was already in huge debt in order to restore my territory. Now that the family private army has not even had time to be formed, how can he lead the troops out to plunder.

To say that it has something to do with the Maple Leaf Territory, that is, a few days ago, a team of refugees strayed into my territory. Seeing that they were so pitiful, I took them in. ”

After listening to Coelho's explanation, Hudson just wanted to say! If any refugee enters by mistake, it is clearly his people.

It's just that I don't know which of my bastards lost people on the road, and the refugees stumbled into the territory of their good neighbor Coelho.

Pie in the sky is not necessarily a good thing. Someone like Coelho, who is not strong, was smashed by the pie.

The lord of Maple Leaf Town didn't have the confidence to ask Hudson for someone, so he could only let Coelho, a soft persimmon, make up for the loss.

Maybe there's more than one unlucky guy, after all, it's all too normal for refugees to get lost.

Even if you follow a large army, there are often people who are left behind. Especially when digging wild vegetables and looking for bark to satisfy hunger, it is most easy to get lost.

Remembering that his own people had fallen into the hands of others, Hudson's heart was very uncomfortable. Words of comfort are unspoken.

"Knight Coelho, if what you say is true, I am willing to act as a mediator between you and help clear up this misunderstanding.

However, you still need to negotiate the ownership of these people. Those guys in Northern Xinjiang are arrogant, but they may not buy my account.

Personally, I suggest that you strengthen your strength first. Even if it's just a serf soldier with low combat effectiveness, it's better than nothing! ”

It's okay to sell favors, but it's impossible to help fight, and the relationship between the two parties hasn't reached that point yet.

The specific combat effectiveness of the Northern Xinjiang soldiers is unknown, but after all, they came down from the orc battlefield, and if they really fought, the losses would definitely not be small.

The Knight of Coelho in front of him looked like a poor ghost, and he couldn't even afford the burying fee, so Hudson didn't do such a loss-making deal.

However, as a qualified arms dealer, Hudson will not give up on any potential customers.

Aristocracy is related to society, and the development of a customer is equivalent to the development of a customer base.

As long as the product is easy to use, everyone will not be stingy to recommend it to friends and family. This kind of favor and smoothness has always been the favorite of the aristocracy.

"Sir Hudson, thank you for your help. Your kindness will never be forgotten by the Rex family! ”

Despite only intervening, Coelho was grateful. With the relationship between the two parties, it's good to be able to do this.

If he really sent troops to help him fight, he would not be able to repay this debt of affection to the Ricks family, who was the only seedling.

There is no love and hate for no reason, and the big man owes a lot of personal debts, so he can only fill it with his life.

Although they are all low-level nobles of the kingdom, Hudson is also a big man in front of the Ricks family.

As the host, Hudson was very enthusiastic to show Coelho around his armory.

Although they were all ordinary iron weapons, the dense number of them still greatly shocked the young knight in front of him.

In the end, on the premise that Hudson agreed to pay in installments and offset in kind, he successfully sold 200 "spearheads".

That's right, just the piercing spearhead of a spear. On the one hand, Hudson did not have as many raw materials to make the spear body, and on the other hand, the customers were too poor.

It was just a small list of 200 gold coins, which had to be paid in installments and offset in kind, which also left Hudson speechless.

No matter how small the list is, it has to be made, all of them are short spearheads of less than a foot, and they don't use much iron at all.

The cost was at most one or two silver coins, but Hudson dared to ask for ten silver coins for the finished product. For customers like Coelho who pay in installments, they naturally have to add additional money.

One gold coin, a proper friendship price. At a time when the situation in the two counties is so tense, it is all human favor to be able to get weapons and equipment on credit.

None of the arms dealers in the market dared to give credit to the fiefdom lords. Even the usury merchants who dared to lend money to the king had to take a detour when they met the fiefdom lord.

For no other reason, it's simply that the bad debt rate is too high. It's not a question of whether they want to pay it back or not, but the noble lords who have come to this point have no ability to repay at all.

No money is no money, can you still make a great nobleman because of money?

The lords of the Northland have the most say in this regard.

If you're unlucky, you'll be able to get an orc slave credit; If you're unlucky, you might lose the debtor at some point.

The probability of the heir fulfilling the contract is infinitely zero, and it is useless to go to court, and there are hardly any laws made by nobles that usury is legal.

Restrain the credibility of everyone to repay the money, not the laws of the territory that can be made at hand.

Of course, this has little to do with Hudson. With such a small list, the debtor is still a neighbor, and the risks in it are really limited.
