Thousands of skeletons and undead, as well as four or five thousand people, followed the lord Vincent, and walked the streets of Silver Dragon Castle.

The news of the arrest of the president of the Wenxi Chamber of Commerce, as well as the appalling interrogation methods, have also spread throughout the city.

The merchants who followed Luke realized that their end was near.

Among them, some businessmen who are still upright and have not done cruel and despicable things have begun to write confessions and confess their sins in advance.

As soon as the lord arrived, he honestly confessed his guilt and accepted punishment, swore to draw a line with Luke, and never do anything stupid that would affect the stability of business.

It's a pity that things gather people in groups, and what kind of Luke's friends are can be glimpsed from Dalma's crimes.

For the sake of commercial interests, they formed gangs, monopolized the market, manipulated prices, and co-opted officials, forming an offensive and defensive alliance that no one could shake.

In addition to the commerce of the cities, they also bought the right to tax the villages from the lords, and while they intensified the exploitation of the poor peasants, they bought agricultural products at high prices in the towns and won twice in and out of the cities.

The previous lord was also a demon, so why didn't he take drastic measures against these people like Vincent?

No way, they give too much.

What's more, in the opinion of the 'Red Wing' Count Dacoolas, who is known for collecting wealth and sucking blood, instead of making the people happy, it is better to let them grieve and suffer, which can allow the demons to gain more negative energy.

The two sides tacitly agreed that although the earl made money to enjoy, the merchants made money in the people.

If the population resists, it will face a double blow of poverty and fear.

If this situation continues, perhaps the former lords and merchants will continue to win-win, leaving only a world where only the people are injured.

However, this situation could not be sustained, and the peasants of the territory, who were already impoverished compared to the relatively wealthy citizens, expelled the tax collectors and raised the banner of rebellion.

In the past, the merchants who actually controlled the serfs could shift the spearhead to the lord and say to the peasants in a aggrieved tone that this was all the order of the demon lord, and let the peasants mingle with the lord's monsters.

Unfortunately, this time they miscalculated.

The lords of the Primorsky Territory retreated bravely!

Dacoolas, the Earl of Red Wing, who eats, drinks, prostitutes, gambles, owes 50,000 gold coins to the merchants, and runs away with his dependents!

I don't know if I planned to fish with all my might from the beginning, or if the situation forced me to run, anyway, the previous lord flapped his wings and left, leaving a lot of chicken feathers in the coastal territory.

The argument to the new lord to continue to hold the economic power has ended in failure, and now the lord Vincent does not intend to negotiate at all, but chooses a direct showdown.

This young demon prince who seems to be all about fun in his head, after a lot of self-amusing farce, he showed the devil's fangs overnight.

The most overwhelming thing is that he easily mobilized all the civilians in the city and turned them into his accomplices.

The method used was very simple: to buy people's hearts, to force merchants to make concessions in the name of law enforcement, and to promise to sell food and daily necessities to the people at a reduced price.

For the lords of other races, the lords may not be willing to spend such a fee, but the high-level demons and the subordinates of low-carbon environmental protection have no rigid needs for those grains at all, and they can be generous to others.

Not long after the moon rose, Vincent directly raided the homes of the three merchants, sealed their shops, and tightened the prison all over the door, without even pulling down the guards of the door.

The two businessmen were directly frightened, directly took out the keys to the warehouse and shop, and swore in public that they would not evade taxes again and sell goods to the people at low prices.

This kind of oath can't actually win people's trust, but Vincent doesn't care, except for the bright-eyed citizens of Silver Dragon Castle, he also summons the resentful spirits, and has these resentful spirits to monitor the behavior of the merchants around the clock.

The undead, who were originally chilling, were suddenly transformed from the embodiment of terror to law enforcement officers who did not want wages and would not be bribed, which made the bullied civilians applaud.

However, everyone is now full of anticipation to see how many law enforcement officers will be stationed at the Southern Chamber of Commerce.

Maybe there is no need for temporary assignments, and it is estimated that there are many people waiting in line in the chamber of commerce to take up posts.

At this moment, it was the turn of Lord Luke, who hated the lord, to take countermeasures.

Unfortunately, he simply didn't have time to prepare.

Who knew that Vincent was still bluffing and agitating the people during the day, and in the evening, he made a huge crowd and went straight to the southern city where the Southern Chamber of Commerce was located.

The affairs of other business partners, Mr. Luke can no longer take care of them, everyone's butts are not clean, not only tax evasion and smuggling, but also a lot of murderous and active deeds, it is impossible to go ashore easily.

Luke's suggestion to persuade him to break the bank and negotiate concessions to the lord was all rejected.

Ever since the sudden disappearance of the orc slave, Luke had had a foreboding that this time he and the demon were going to die.

If the orc leaves the manor too far away from the protection of magic, the curse on his body will inevitably trigger automatically.

One can imagine the horror and rage of the lord when he saw a new curse that none of his own people had necessarily seen.

Dealing with demons with a curse is the most intolerable provocation like setting off the dragon's scales.

"I can't wait to give that slave to him!" Luke shouted hysterically in the Chamber of Commerce, "Now that the secret has been discovered, he won't let me go regardless of whether the curse is lifted or not." ”

Behind the curse, there is the inside story that Luke will never dare to let the demons know, and compared to the horror of the curser, Vincent is just a noble young master with strong blood.

Because the lord did not talk about the sneak attack of martial virtue, Luke was desperate to find that he could only use his life to keep the secret.

It was originally a matter of ruining wealth and eliminating disasters, but there is no turning back when it reaches this point.

If it falls into Vincent's hands, this demon will inevitably knock out the bones and suck the marrow, torture him with every demon imaginable, even if there is only a pile of brains left, they will find a way to squeeze out the secret.

Outside the high walls of the Chamber of Commerce, skeletons and skeletons armed with tattered weapons have been piled up, surrounding the Chamber of Commerce.

Fortunately, Luke had not agreed to sell weapons to the lord before, otherwise the monsters would have slaughtered the seller with their own goods.

Skeletons are clumsy and sluggish, and even if they are numerous, they are not the biggest threat.

There are magicians in the Chamber of Commerce, who can use divine magic, plus medicines and props, which should be able to resist for a while.

Looking up, there were more than twenty harpys hovering over the Chamber of Commerce outside Luke's window, not only monitoring every move inside, but also constantly spitting incense, and continuing to bombard the people inside.

If Lord Vincent came after a while, and he could not satisfy him, the stinking harpy banshees would have dropped not small stones and dead rats, but torches and poison.

After the last underground smuggling, the tunnels that had been dug a long time ago, and the scheming Luke gave up - he didn't want to fall into the blood of the worm while walking.

It is absolutely not accidental that the demons can capture half of the continent in the war, Vincent has not used the demons' shady ghost tricks, and the conventional forces alone have already made Luke's subordinates in the Chamber of Commerce tremble.

What's more, this time he not only came with his subordinates, but also led thousands of people in the city to watch the excitement and not think it was a big deal.

If he had injured this group of idlers in the conflict and caused public outrage, his business would definitely not be able to be done locally at all.

All that can be relied on is the large number of weapons and armor that he has withheld and not sold to the lord, as well as the mercenaries, magicians and armed men who are also under siege.

Luke has also been a little prescient these days, and has spent a lot of money to hire mercenaries in the city.

There are more than 200 mercenaries in the Chamber of Commerce, but these people have little loyalty and lack command, so they are unreliable in a critical situation.

In the event of a conflict, you must first stabilize your position and use victory to boost morale.

"My slave, you lead these men to guard the gates, and I will go and pray to the gods to save us."

Luke asked his personal slave Sadaka to lead the armed mercenaries and run into the depths of the Chamber of Commerce by himself.

Anyway, this guy didn't know that his sister had been rescued, so he asked him to die first, and he could be a while for a while.

Sadaka nodded expressionlessly, picked up a long-handled axe, and walked towards the gate with his tail wagging.
