Chapter 186

Yadimu subconsciously felt a little incredible, but thinking back on all the commotion operations that Kelai had been doing for nearly a year, he couldn't help but be silent.

In the past year, Yadimu has also observed all kinds of operations on Kelai's body closely.

His operation is very simple in Yadimu's opinion, and the whole process can be described in two words.

Make money! Make money! Or make money.

He seems to have lost money, no matter what he does, he first considers economic gains, as if he has some task on his body, and he takes making money as his responsibility in everything.

Yatemu was sometimes a little skeptical, wondering if there was something wrong with him.

Bloodstone is such a precious material, if someone else says that it is to be sold, Yadimu is a little unbelievable, but if it is the other party, it may not seem impossible.

And the effect of Bloodstone, think about it, that's what it is.

If it is a perfect version of the bloodstone, then it is needless to say, with its preciousness, normal people would not think of selling it.

To put it bluntly, it is beyond the scope of normal trading and is an absolutely priceless treasure.

But with the mutilated version of Bloodstone, this may not be.

According to Kelai, after using that bloodstone, there will be only one year left to live.

In this case, I believe that most people will not use him.

For those big guys, this is undoubtedly quite a chicken thing.

If it's precious, it's certainly precious.

But if you want to use it for yourself, then forget it.

If such a thing can be sold for money, it may not be bad for those people.

So, it's quite reasonable.

After thinking for a while, Artimus couldn't help but look up at Kelai in front of him, and only spoke after a long time: "How much?"

Listening to Yadimu's words, Kelai smiled, and his heart suddenly breathed a sigh of relief.

It seems that today's business is done.

"How much can you give?"

He asked, looking at Artimu.

"Two thousand?"

Artimu tentatively quoted a price.

"This is an ancient alchemical item."

Kelai's face suddenly showed displeasure: "Mr. Yadimu, you have to understand that even a royal item from the Ancient Elven Empire can be auctioned for at least a few hundred gold coins now, let alone such a top-level alchemy artifact."

"Three thousand?" Yatimu's voice continued.

Kelai didn't speak, but looked at Artimus fixedly, and motioned for him to continue the offer.

This time, though, Yadimu didn't speak immediately.

He pondered for a moment before he spoke, quoting a price: "Six thousand gold coins."

Seeing that Kelai wanted to say something, he waved his hand and interrupted the other party: "Six thousand gold coins, this number is quite a lot."

He opened his mouth and said, "Of course, this is an alchemical artifact from the Elven Empire, but after all, it is only a broken item, what value can it have other than to use it for experiments and collections?"

"And for an item that can only be used for experimentation and collection, the price of six thousand gold coins is already very high."

"That's the final offer, if you're not willing to accept it, Mr. Klei, then forget it." ….

He spoke calmly, explaining that this would be the final price.

Kelai opened his mouth, and couldn't help but fall into thought.

Six thousand gold coins, to be honest, this price is still a certain distance from the goal in his heart.

But what Artimus looks like now is also obvious.

Assuming that if he doesn't agree, what if he really doesn't want it?

Although Bloodstone is precious, due to its own flaws, to be honest, not many people are willing to pay a high price for it.

Even if they're willing to pay a premium for it, they're not the only buyers.

In fact, if Artimus is willing, six thousand gold coins

I'm afraid it's enough to buy Bloodstone from other people.

Many people have broken bloodstones in their hands, but there are only ones who are willing to pay such a high price for them.

Thinking of this, Kelai silently made a decision in his heart.

He smiled, then looked up at Artim in front of him, "In that case, let's make a deal."

"Okay."

Artimus nodded, "How long will it take for me to get something?"

"Three days at most."

Kelai raised his arm and stretched out three fingers.

"Three days?"

Artimu pondered for a moment, then nodded, "Okay."

He didn't pay much attention to this business.

Now he is not a master who is short of money, and the price of six thousand gold coins to buy an alchemy item is a little expensive, but it is nothing to him.

Of course, if Kelai really wanted to treat him as a fat pig and slaughter him a few more times, then he would not be slaughtered obediently.

After all, with the degree of defects in this thing, Yadimu believed that there would not be many buyers besides him.

Since the other party is willing to sell, then he is one of the best buyers.

And it turns out to be true.

"Wait a minute."

Seeing that Adimu was leaving, Kelai smiled and motioned for him to wait.

Facing Artimus' somewhat puzzled gaze, he spoke, "It's rare to come here, why don't you sit for a while?"

"I also happen to have something I want to discuss with you, Artimus."

"Oh?"

Artim was a little surprised: "I don't know what kind of thing?"

"I'm leaving soon."

Facing Yadimu's gaze, Ke said a piece of news, which made the surprise on Yadimu's face even stronger.

"Mr. Klee is leaving Lima City?"

He looked at Kelai in front of him and subconsciously spoke.

After receiving an affirmative answer, he smiled, "Congratulations."

"It seems that Mr. Kelai's hard work is also seen by His Highness."

"Haha, thanks to your help."

Kelai didn't shy away from anything, "If it weren't for those gifts you sent me earlier, I wouldn't have been able to leave here so soon."

The gifts that Artimus had sent before were a lot in number.

These gifts cannot be enjoyed by one person.

The specific person to whom it belonged was was quite well known to both Adimus and Kelai.

"Anyway, congratulations."

Yadimu raised his glass, "It seems that I will only be able to meet you in the royal capital in the future."

"Haha."

Klei smiled, not denying it. ….

For his transfer this time, he did not hide it, and said it directly.

Because of his previous excellent performance, he was successfully valued by His Royal Highness behind him, so this time he will be directly transferred to the royal capital and become one of the officials.

What the specific level is, he doesn't know for the time being, but it is certain that it will be better than the position of the city lord of Lima City.

"After I leave, the position of Lord of Lima City will be vacant."

Kelai looked at the Adim in front of him, and suddenly smiled and said, "As the former city lord, I happen to have the power to recommend for His Majesty."

"Mr. Yadimu, I wonder if you are interested in the position of the city lord?"

The voice fell, and there was a sudden pause on the spot.

Is Artimu interested in the position of Lord of Lima City?

Of course, there is.

The reason why he made friends with Kelai at the beginning, and spent a lot of money to establish a good relationship with Kelai and other officials, and gave gifts regularly, was to use the official power of the Principality of Cohen to seek benefits for himself, so as to obtain benefits.

As it turned out, he didn't do anything wrong with these moves, otherwise the Shaman Gang wouldn't have been so light

Yi exterminated the Brotherhood, and in the course of this year, it grew and grew, all the way to its current level.

But if you are good friends with the city lord, how can you have the direct ability to act as the city lord in person?

After all, Klai is not a puppet, but a person with a will of his own.

Most of the time, he would have chosen to cooperate with Artimu, but he did not accept it all.

Even so, he's already a pretty good collaborator.

If it were a different person, the result would probably only be worse than this.

Rather than bothering to deal with the next successor at that time, it is better to sit in this position yourself.

The gains and losses in this, Yadimu naturally understands.

It's just that he also has his own concerns about this.

"Lord of Lima City, shall I?"

Artimus had some doubts: "I have never held any position in the principality."

Not only did he not hold any position, but his presence in Lima City was extraordinarily large.

Not only was he a guest of various official figures, but he also controlled most of the trade routes in the entire city of Lima, monopolizing more than half of the profits.

He has an army of the thousands, and a break could threaten the rule of the Duchy of Cohen in the region.

For such a character, if it were according to the normal situation, it would definitely be strictly guarded.

After all, he has not yet obtained an official name, and he has developed to the point where he is now, if he gets an official name again, how can he clean it up?

Isn't that an enemy?

Clearly, though, Klai was thinking differently.

"What does that matter?"

To Adimus's concerns, Klei seemed unconcerned: "Who said that you did not hold any office in the kingdom?"

"You are the Earl appointed by our Majesty himself."

Yes, Artimus now has a knighthood on his body, and he is also an earl.

The title of this earl was none other than that which Artimus had given to him when he had purchased the land.

After all, after spending so much money, you must not just buy an official document and return it to a matching knighthood. ….

Otherwise, wouldn't it be in vain to spend so much money?

So on the bright side, the current Adim is still the official earl of the Duchy of Cohen, and he is a dignified earl.

Although Yadimu himself didn't feel much about this title.

After being reminded by Kelai, Yadimu was a little abrupt, and then realized that he still had a title in the Duchy of Cohen.

Indeed, if it was a person who did not hold any position as the lord of the city, it would be absolutely impossible.

But if it's a person with an earldom, it doesn't matter.

Lima City is not a very important place, as long as the annual taxes and food are enough, who cares who he is.

It is enough to have a noble title and be able to deal with it on the surface.

"If an earl is not qualified to be the lord of Lima City, then I really don't know who is qualified."

Kelai patted Yadimu on the shoulder, smiled at him, and said, "You don't have to worry about it, just do it as much as you want."

"So, at what cost?"

Yadimu smiled and asked, "Sir and Your Highness support me as the lord of the city, do you want me to help you do something?"

"Yatemu, you're a smart man."

"I know that you have a great power in your hands, which may be inconspicuous now, but it is needed by many people at critical times."

Yadimu's face was calm, and a strange feeling gradually rose in his heart.

Sure enough, the next moment, Kelai continued to speak: "I hope you can use this power to help Your Highness at the right time, how about it?"

Help Your Highness.........

There is a question mark over this help.

Giving some gifts, giving money as in the past is help, and going to war with others is also help.

What does this behind-the-scenes highness want Yadimu to help him with?

Artimus couldn't help frowning.

What is certain is that the power he has accumulated so far is still in the eyes of Kelai and the people behind him.

But there's something unique about their thinking.

They don't have the idea of curbing the development of Yadimu, or even if they want to, they can't.

So what they want is more to use this power, to use the power of Adimu to achieve their own goals.

It is because of this that this deal came about.

As long as Artimus is willing to agree to their request and join their side in the future, they will help Artimus gain the position of Lord of Lima.

And with the help of this position, Yadimu's power will inevitably grow and reach a new level.

Artimus couldn't help but fall into deep thought.

However, he didn't think about it for too long and made a decision quickly.

"That's a good idea."

He raised his head and looked at Kelai in front of him: "Please tell Your Highness, and I will say that I have agreed."

"I and my forces will help him when it matters most."

In any case, the benefits of the promise are real.

As for the help in the future, that's something that can be talked about later.

To put it mildly, judging from the future situation, even if Artim wants to regret it afterwards and not help that Highness, what can that Highness do with Artimu?

Of course, this kind of thing is not to the extent that it is necessary, and Artimus will not do it.

He doesn't like to do this kind of breaking promises.

Listening to Yatemu's words, a smile appeared on Kelai's face.

"I wish us a happy cooperation."

As the two reached a cooperation agreement again, Yadimu also left the place.

The six thousand gold coins were quickly mobilized and carried to the manor by Sailo himself.

And the bloodstone also reached the hands of Artimu.

"This is Bloodstone?"

In his manor, Adimus looked at the bloodstone.

Bloodstone, like his name, looks like a blood-colored hedron on the surface.

It was like a blood-stained spar, oozing with a blood-colored color, and it looked like it had an inexplicable charm that made people can't help but look into it.

When it was delivered to Artimu, the bloodstone was smashed into a glass bottle and tightly wrapped.
