Chapter 91: Persuasion

"What do you want to do?"

Wadden tried his best to show his composure, but his voice still trembled a little, "Something is in the banquet hall, you should follow the rules of the game!" ”

The psychological quality is not bad...... At least under high pressure, it is rare to be able to keep rational thinking.

Varina pulled the handle of his knife away a little, detached himself from the tense muscles behind Wadden's back, and said:

"I said, I'm just here to talk."

"As long as you cooperate, I can give you more space. Of course, that doesn't mean I'm going to give up the most basic control, you know? ”

"Hmm." Wadden responded.

"It's time for you to get down to business, what did Roger ask you to do?"

Varina took a few steps back, letting most of her body disappear into the shadows nearby, and said:

"You can turn around."

"As for Roger, of course he wants me to steal the jewelry, win the gamble, and disgrace you."

Wadden slowly turned to the side of his chair, his pale blue eyes looking behind him, only to see the front half of a pair of half-worn leather boots and a right hand playing with the iron hilt.

The person who came hid his body in the shadows, and he couldn't see it clearly.

"But I'm a bounty hunter, and I want a bounty, but I don't want to offend any big guys."

Hearing this, Wadden had already understood that this guy was whimsical, "So you want to convince me to take the initiative to give you that piece of jewelry?" ”

"Hehe, you're very thoughtful, but I don't think you can succeed."

Wadden laughed softly, no longer nervous.

This is of course related to his own excellent psychological quality, but it is more because Varina uses a "charming" spell to make his words sound more sincere.

"I've earned the opportunity to talk, and that's where success begins."

Varina dragged a chair from next to him and sat down, asking:

"Mr. Wadden, have you considered the outcome of your winning game? Can you guarantee that ...... Uh......"

"Miss Britney, Viscount Conrad's favorite little daughter." Wadden interjected with some dissatisfaction.

"Yes, Miss Britney."

Varina began to direct his train of thought, "Do you think she's going to be that kind of superficial girl?" Can you use this savage victory to move her heart? ”

"No ,......," Wadden hurriedly retorted, but was speechless after spitting out a word.

"Look," Varina's voice smirked, "you know that yourself. ”

"Let me ask you again, do you know the cost of winning the game?"

"It's just offending the son of a wealthy merchant," said Wadden, somewhat haughtily, "and if he hadn't had been rich enough in his family, he wouldn't have had access to our circle." ”

Varina snorted, "The arrogance of the nobility blinds you. ”

"Let me ask you, do you think it is easier to use money to obtain a knighthood, or is it easier to open up a new way of wealth?"

"Impossible!"

Wadden subconsciously retorted, "It's impossible to get a knighthood with money!" His Majesty the King will no longer easily canonize nobles. ”

As for opening up a way to make money, he simply ignored the past.

If the way to make money is so easy to think of, how can it be the turn of so many rich businessmen to appear?

"Look, you know it yourself."

Varina broke the key, "Obtaining a knighthood only requires the approval of His Majesty the King, and you can't even think of a possible way to make money." ”

"I ask you, if Mr. Sindras were to be knighted, would there be anything better than Roger?"

"But it can't be!" Wadden stood by his opinion.

"That's not good, in case the kingdom's finances are in trouble, do you think His Majesty will change his mind?"

After mentioning it lightly, Varina immediately returned to the topic, "Didn't you subconsciously want to ease the conflict with Roger while maintaining your own face?" ”

"If I have a way to make sure you lose face, and you can still befriend Roger, you can even show Miss Britney your tolerance and generosity......"

"Don't you think about the best of all three?"

This time, Wadden was silent.

He thought of his own financial situation from that assumption, which was indeed a bit tight.

This is not an isolated case, the most serious Viscount Stout's family even found an excuse to break the convention and married a wealthy merchant family last year.

What if this bounty hunter really gets it right...... Then there is a real chance that Mr. Sindras will be canonized!

At this time, he heard the demagogy of Varina's "best of three things".

"Tell me about it, I'll think about it."

Wadden, who was originally sitting on his side in a chair casually, unconsciously straightened up, and his verbal attitude softened a lot.

"It's simple."

Varina stepped out of the shadows and showed Wadden the confident smile on his face.

"All you need to do is restrain the victor's posture before the deadline, humbly reconcile with Roger, and share the nominal ownership of the jewelry with him."

Wadden pinched his chin, quickly thought of the biggest flaw of this method, and frowned:

"But this requires a tacit understanding with Roger in advance, doesn't this mean that I admit defeat in advance?"

"Of course not!"

Varina waved his hand, "People will only see that you generously chose reconciliation at the last moment when you were about to win. ”

"If you insist that someone admits defeat in advance, then it is Roger, and I will help you achieve this step."

"If someone is going to pursue this, I can testify for you then."

With that, Varina winked her eyes at him.

Wadden's brow furrowed, he leaned back in his chair and asked, "And what do you want me to do?" ”

This guy is a bit level...... This is a reaction, and I know that I have to show sincerity first.

Soon, Varina suppressed a trace of surprise in her heart and said:

"It's simple, just take care of the piece of jewelry yourself and make it disappear from everyone's sight."

Wadden nodded, asking the last doubt in his mind: "Are you sure you are not making it easier for the subsequent theft?" Are you sure you have a way to get Roger to throw in early? ”

"Of course!"

"Of course," Varina kept smiling, emphatically "I'm a bounty hunter and want a bounty, not offending the powerful." ”

"I'll help you meet your expectations."

"Of course, this requires you to pay some bounty after the deed is done."

Wadden stood up, looked Varina up and down with pale blue eyes, and asked, "How much do you want?" ”

"Not much."

"Not much," Varina gestured, "Roger's mission is much more dangerous, and the bounty offered is only 500 pounds. ”

"I think £300 is a reasonable price."

"I think that's a tiny amount to you."

The asking price was a bit painful for Wadden, but it was still within his reach.

Considering that this would improve relations with Roger, he finally gritted his teeth and nodded.

"If you do it well, there will be 300 pounds."
