As Ankka and Sodeyth walked, they noticed that some of the residents would spontaneously fall to their knees and shout long live when they saw Anka, but their eyes were filled with the same fear as they looked at the Kalans.

Ankha asked suspiciously, "What's going on?" ”

Sodeeth responded, "Because you're the ruler of the Cades!" Although I don't like to see my compatriots kneel, they probably don't know what to look like when they see a ruler. ”

"Rise up, everybody! Don't let me delay everyone's time. ”

After Ankka finished speaking, the men slowly got up and lowered their heads, trying not to meet Ankka as much as possible.

Ankka then went to Sodeis's workshop, and the men who worked inside all cowered when they saw Ankka coming.

When they tried to kneel, Ankh stopped them and said, "Keep working!" You don't need to bow to me. ”

Ankh turned to Sodeyth and asked, "Do you need anything else?" ”

"Nothing is needed, thanks to your support."

"Are these Cades we brought from Santa Seca to work for you?"

"Yes, I found that their forging skills are improving very quickly, so I am teaching them, so that in the future, Kades will definitely not need to buy even the iron pot from other countries and chambers of commerce."

At this time, a traveling merchant with a thick package came over with a cart.

"Sodeyith, I brought you what you wanted."

Sodeyith happily patted the mysterious thing covered by the black cloth and said, "You guy is so good, how did you find these rare things?" ”

The one smiled and said, "Trade secrets." ”

Ankha curiously asked, "What did you buy this?" ”

Sodeyith stumbled, "Secret. ”

Ankka smiled and didn't continue to ask, and Ankka looked at him more than once when he saw the traveling merchant after taking the money bag, but he didn't react, which made Ankka a little curious.

You Shang said: "I'm leaving, there will be a lot of people in the square today, I'm going to prepare." ”

After the merchant left, Ankka took a few steps forward and turned around and asked, "Looks like you're familiar with him." ”

"I found out a lot of strange treasures in his hands when I made the first deal with him, so I deepened my bond with him."

At this time, a voice came from the workshop and attracted the attention of the two people.

"Why is this thing ringing? Come on. ”

Sodeis stopped the fleeing Kades apprentices in front of the door and said, "Didn't I say don't be nervous about any situation?" ”

As Sodeith instructed them, Ankka lifted his right foot and picked up what he had stepped on and dropped from the wanderer.

Ankka placed a gold button in the palm of his hand and looked closely, the button was very delicate, and the lion head pattern on it set off that the button was not an ordinary object, but like the mark of some family.

Ankha turned to Sodeis and said, "I'll go back and rest first." ”

Sodeeth trotted out and asked, "Is that the end of today?" ”

"Well, you should also pay attention to rest!"

After returning to the command center, Anka went to the camp where the prisoners were held and said to a fat captive, "Come here. ”

The captive threw down his pickaxe and trotted all the way over to one knee and asked, "Is there anything I need help with?" ”

Ankh laughed and said, "You seem to be adapting to this place faster than they do!" ”

"It is already your grace to allow us to live, and how can I resist? That kind of behavior is nothing more than a grasshopper shaking a tree, and your power has never been seen before, and anyone who wants to fight against you is extremely stupid. ”

Ankka laughed and found the paladin and said, "Remember that if you come to take care of the captive in the future, you can just ask him." ”

The captive knelt down and kowtowed in thanks, "Thank you for believing in me." ”

Ankh leaned over and said, "One more thing, you can choose your own working hours in the future, but you need to help me to spy on the other captives and tell the paladins who are guarding you about their actions." ”

"My pleasure."

Ankh took out the button and asked, "Do you know what this is?" ”

The man took the button and looked at it for a while and said, "This is the family symbol of one of the nine nobles of the Kalan Kingdom, but there are no people from their family in the military camp, how did you get it?" ”

Ankka smiled and took back the button and said, "A qualified slave won't ask questions, go back and do your job!" ”

"Yes, I'll pay attention to it in the future."

After that, Ankh turned to the paladin and said, "Bring the traveling merchant who is wrapped in black in the square tonight, be gentle." ”

At night, Ankka was in the house in a daze with the map of Cardus, when the paladin brought the man over.

The man shouted, "What a barbarism. ”

Ankh looked up and said, "Didn't I say gentle?" ”

"I'm sorry, because he's running away that's why we're holding him back."

"Let's get out of here!"

After saying that, Ankka got up to untie the man, and when he put his hand on the other party's black robe, the other party directly held Anka's hand nervously and did not allow Ankka to continue to untie his clothes.

The other party shouted, "What are you going to do?" ”

"I just wanted to see if you dropped this."

As he spoke, Ankh handed the button over and showed it to him, and the other party quickly regained his composure and said, "You've found the wrong person!" I don't even know that. ”

"Really? Can you take off your black robe? ”

The other party asked, "Do rulers like to pick people's clothes?" I'm a man. ”

"Is there anything to be disgraced?"

The man slowly lowered his black robe, allowing Ankka to see what the other person looked like, a very obvious Kalan appearance, his golden curls oozing sweat, his eyes constantly watching Ankka fall out of his sleeve, and the dagger that was caught was also ready at any time.

Ankh smiled and asked, "Are you a traveling merchant or a spy?" ”

"I am a traveling merchant who enjoys the protection of the treaty of travel merchants of various countries, I have not committed a crime, and you have no right to imprison me."

"You're a nobleman?"

"That's just the old days, and I don't want to have anything to do with them."

Ankha smiled and said, "Do you want to make money on your own?" ”

The other party nodded and asked, "What do you want to do?" ”

"I can help you get into the position of branch president of the Cades Chamber of Commerce."

"How are you going to do that?"

"Now I'm working with the Holy Maiden, and the Holy Maiden is going to expel the influence of the Chamber of Commerce in Santa Seca, and those expelled chambers are in dire need of a new dumping ground for goods, and Carders is a good choice."

"I don't think so, after all, the resources of Caddes are not as good as Caldara, the transportation is not as good as Karan, and the consumption is not as good as Sansceca, how can it be possible to come to Caddes to build a chapter on a large scale?"

Ankh laughed and said, "But you overlooked one point. ”

"What?"

"Cades is a cross-border and at war, and it's very easy for the Chamber of Commerce to do illegal cross-border business, and if they have the support of the local government in Cades, then they ......."

The other party suddenly interrupted Anka's speech and said disdainfully: "I thought you were different from them, but I didn't expect that you are also a politician who wants to sell the interests of your country, although the Chamber of Commerce will bring a lot of taxes, they will also destroy everything around, they are extremely profitable, if a piece of grass can be sold for two copper coins, then they can plant a whole field on that." ”

Ankh listened to him and responded: "If I can unify the Cades in the future, then I will need a lot of money and resources to help the Cades bridge the gap with other countries, and the Chamber of Commerce is just a tool I use to quickly accumulate money, I need a reliable helper to help me control the Chambers of Commerce so that I can better harvest their wealth in the future." ”

"Why me?"

Ankka responded with a smile in silence.

After thinking for a moment, the other party said in surprise: "You want to protect me, or use the fact that you know my identity to control me, after all, now you can tell others my identity at any time, so I can't even go back to Karan, if you spread rumors that we have a connection, then I am likely to be investigated by Karan's pickets in the country, and then those other families who oppose my family are likely to use this matter to persecute my family, And if you have problems with the policy in the future, you can also push me, an outsider as the branch president, out to take the blame for you! ”

Ankh shrugged lightly and said: "I only thought of one part, I didn't expect you to directly complete the other parts, I just learned from flipping through the newspaper that your family is strong in the business field, so I hope you can help me, after all, I found that some people who surrender will even be more loyal than normal people in some ways, so I'm going to give it a try." ”

"Aren't you afraid that I will run away with the money after becoming the branch president?"

Ankh suddenly asked, "You seem to have left the family because of a disagreement with the way the family runs!" ”

"How do you know?"

"The eyes of the Holy Maiden are all over the continent, I know it from the Holy Maiden."

"Nonsense, this is two days away from the border with Santa Seca, and how can a saint be here."

"Do you think a person with the power to kill all of Karan's camp can't telepathize?"

As the other fell silent, Ankha asked, "Don't you want to prove that you are doing business in the right way?" ”

After a moment of silence, the other party said, "If you can allow me to experiment with my own business model in Cades, then I will give everything for you." ”

"I've arranged a house for you, so it's easy for me to find you at any time."

"I'm looking forward to meeting next time."

After he was escorted away by the paladin, Ankka approached a paladin and said, "Please let some of your trained scouts infiltrate his clan for information, and if they still want to see him, then maybe we can use him as a threat to his clan." ”

"In the future battle with Karan, if we have the intelligence support of Karan, then our casualties will definitely be minimized, and in the future negotiations, we can also let his family create public opinion in Karan's domestic territory in order to facilitate negotiations faster."

Then Ankha lifted the button and said happily, "God help me!" ”

As the paladin left to prepare for the scout, Ankha sat down on the bed and said, "How could I have come up with that?" I'm just a thirteen-year-old! Could it really be that the mind was affected by the magic sword? Hey, after finishing the matter here, I will kill the culprit who released the demons, I will quickly take Alan Xi and hide to the ends of the earth, thinking about the affairs of these rulers is really a headache, and I feel uncomfortable when I see those people kneeling and shouting long live, I hope I can have a good dream tonight! ”
