After the messenger finished the oral report, he handed out the letter with both hands, and waited for Charles to take it and stand by on the spot.

After reading the letter, Charles's deep brow twitched a few times, his right hand shook vigorously, and the letter paper turned into powder.

He thought for a moment, then replied to the messenger.

The messengers saluted and retreated, and the faint sound of horses' hooves grew farther and farther away.

Charles got up and walked over to Rogge.

"Lao Cha, what's wrong? Don't keep a straight face. Orfina asked, shaking the crispy chicken leg in her hand.

"Ugh." Charles sighed, "Just after a tough battle, that group of orcs was restless again, and there were hundreds of cyclops in one go!" ”

"Hundreds of Cyclops?" Rogge was stunned, "What are they targeting?" ”

"It's not certain yet, it's just a build-up in Cartagena now."

"Are there any other legions?"

"The army of black orcs is also gathering, and in addition, the Thunderfang Behemoth, the Stonehorn, and the Manticored Lion are all moving."

"What about the goblins and the beastman tribe?" Filia asked.

"No action for the time being."

Rogge pondered for a moment and said, "The army of black orcs is all heavy infantry, and the Thundertooth Behemoth, Stonehorn, and Manticore are all large units, which are relatively bulky. They assembled in Cartagena and must have been preparing for a major attack. ”

"Well, that's what I thought too." Charles Dow.

"Cartagena is still some way from the border fortress group defense, and we still have time to prepare." Felia said.

"I have already asked the messengers to send a message to Marshal Edrash, intensify reconnaissance, and be vigilant at all times. Later, I will send a message to the nobles and mobilize troops. ”

"Emperor Charles, the training of the canorada is quite effective, and I will go to the front line with the Knights of the Burning Sun."

"That couldn't be better!" A smile appeared on Charles's face, "With this hundred days of tarantula participation in the battle, we can confront the behemoths of the Orc Alliance head-on!" Don't worry, Rogge, I know that you feel guilty about the Celestial Lollads, and I will definitely put them in the most suitable position and not let them become cannon fodder to attract firepower. ”

"I trust you."

"Alright, you just need to be ready, don't be too nervous, after all, there are still us old things, and the Empire's defenses will not be easily broken. Enjoy tonight's dinner, your last few hours as students. ”

After Charles finished speaking, he picked up a glass of wine on the table and raised his glass, and without waiting for Rogge and the others to respond, he drank it "tons and tons", turned around and was about to leave.

"Lao Cha, don't go." Orfina stopped him.

Charles paused and turned slowly.

"Lao Cha, you see how wonderful my speech is, those soul knowledge are all summed up by people with a lot of effort, you use it, you can't express it?" Orfina squinted wide-eyed, looking like a profiteer.

"Nana, what do you want?" Charles knew that he couldn't hide, so he simply asked directly.

"Oh, my brother's territory has just been built, and I need money to operate it. We're so poor, we can't afford to eat. ”

- What about the little girl? As far as the relationship between Rogge and Fillia is concerned, can Brandon still make you unable to afford to eat? Isn't it just a money junkie? That's it, it's easy to be a fan of money, not to mention that the summary of knowledge about the soul is indeed very important, and it can even be said to be a priceless treasure. But you're not big or small, look at how I teach you!

Charles secretly scolded himself, laughing heartily on the surface, "Haha, it's easy to say!" ”

He held out three fingers, "Three thousand gold coins!" ”

Orfina rolled her eyes and pouted, looking at Charles with a look of disdain and disdain.

Three thousand gold coins was a huge amount of money for Rogge's team two years ago, enough for them to buy sufficient supplies and very good equipment.

But for them now, it's just a small amount of money.

After all, the cost of territory construction is very huge, and if it weren't for Filia's mobilization of the family's funds, even if she emptied Orfina's small treasury, it would only be a drop in the bucket.

A bottle of mortal-level magic power and strength potion costs fifty silver coins and three thousand gold coins, which is only enough to equip one bottle of potion for six thousand soldiers.

The price of a piece of Rare Rank Intermediate Equipment is between 300 and 400 Gold Coins, and the Rare Rank High Level costs about 1,000 Gold Coins, and 3,000 Gold Coin can only arm one high-level professional.

So Ou Feina felt that Lao Cha didn't respect her enough, the girl snorted coldly, and also stretched out three fingers, "Thirty thousand gold coins!" ”

Charles is not panicking, how experienced is he, he is easy to negotiate with the leaders of other countries, and he is afraid that he will not be able to deal with a little girl?

The price he proposed first was much lower than psychological expectations, just to leave plenty of room for bargaining.

Charles calmly added two fingers, "Five thousand gold coins!" ”

Charlista and Chatphone, who were at the same table, covered their pretty faces, feeling that their usually wise and martial father was now very embarrassed.

But Lao Cha ignored that Orfina was not a national leader, she was just a smart and cute girl with a little bit of naughty.

Orfina sneered, and also added two fingers, "Fifty thousand gold coins!" ”

Charles: "??? ”

- This girl doesn't play cards according to the routine, why does she increase the price? No, I'm a dignified emperor, how can I admit defeat?

Charles gritted his teeth and stretched out two fingers of his other hand, "Seven thousand gold coins!" ”

Orfina took a deep breath and pulled off the hairband tied with the double ponytail, her little head swayed, and her soft goose-yellow hair swayed, giving her a little mature charm.

She followed Charles's movements and stretched out two fingers of her left hand, "Seventy thousand gold coins!" ”

Sisters Charlista and Chatfanie went from covering their faces to covering their mouths, waiting to see their old father's jokes.

Charles was embarrassed, his offer was getting higher and higher, and the other party's offer was higher, but if he lowered it back, with Orfina's character, it would not fall.

The Emperor scratched his head, and a somewhat flattering smile quickly appeared on his majestic and resolute face, "That, Nana, can you ......?"

"Tsk, tsk, tsk." Orfina shook her head with a lovely "tsk" sound, and the third finger of her left hand began to "thrive".

Charles swallowed his saliva, stared at the white finger that popped out of his head, and when he was half high, his fingertips were about to stand up, and hurriedly shouted, "Seventy thousand! Just 70,000! ”

"That'......," Orfina held out her little hand.

Charles sighed, as if he were ten years old.

Seventy thousand gold coins, although enough to buy sufficient supplies for an army, are nothing to the Dilong family and to the monarch of a country.

Charles mainly felt that it was a bit embarrassing to lose the negotiation to a little girl, and he was so tired.

"I didn't bring so much money, so I'll hand it over to you when it's all right."

"Okay! Thank you Lao Cha! ”

Orfina instantly showed a sweet smile, as if the "blackmail" just now had nothing to do with her.

The angelic smile is extremely powerful, and with the shawl hair and pure white dress, Lao Cha feels that it is so healing.

"Ah, yes! Lao Cha, Cha 3 and Cha 4 always harass my brother...... And Sister Filia, take them away, and don't let them follow us. ”

Charles glanced at his two daughters and did not speak.

After the daughters returned to normal, Charles was extremely happy, they could do whatever they wanted, and they would never stop them, and the same is true now.

Charlista squeezed her eyes and said Dad, you have to find a way.

Charles raised his eyebrows, and said Dad, I just failed miserably, and I am not her opponent at all, I am very helpless, you think for yourself.

Chatfanie was in a hurry, and said softly: "Nana, let's take you hostage, so that your father won't give you money." ”

Charles: "??? ”

Orfina frowned and thought about the possibility of Charles defaulting.

- Sister Filia's family can come up with so much money, he is an emperor, and he wants 70,000 gold coins to be deducted, he won't really play tricks, right?

The girl figured it out, and waved her little hand, "Okay, don't worry, Lao Cha, as soon as the gold coins arrive, I will drive them ...... Ah no, let it go! ”

"Uh, thank you?"

"You're welcome, you can go get busy."

Charles turned, took three steps and fled in two.

Charlista and Chatstephanie looked at each other and had an idea.

Whether you can be by Rogge and the others, the most important thing is to get Ofina, and Ofina, as long as she finds the right direction, seems to be easy to do.

- In the future, if you give her a sum of money on the grounds of studying, you can justifiably rely on it...... Stay with him.

Chatfanie thought so.

Ofina asked for a lot of "patent fees", and she was in a very happy mood, holding a wine glass and drinking it one by one with a circle of acquaintances on the table, her little face was crimson, and she was about to spit bubbles.

She unleashed a blessing spell on herself, suppressed the feeling of dizziness, nausea, and vomiting, and continued to eat delicious meals in a fluttering but conscious slightly drunken state.

At this time, the last batch of dishes was served, and a chef personally served the dishes to Rogge.

After serving, he saluted Rogge respectfully, took out a large bag and handed it to him, "Dear Mr. Rogge, this is your dividend for the last three months, totaling 100,000 gold coins. ”

"Oh, I'm sorry for you."

"Don't worry, it's our greatest honor for the Bauhinia family to cooperate with you." The chef suddenly became nervous, hesitated and finally mustered up the courage to say, "I have another reluctant request, can you please sign it for me?" ”

The chefs of the Bauhinia family have a common idol, and that is Rogge.

They even carved a statue of Rogge out of white radishes in the kitchen, and every day before cooking, they sharpened their knives against the statue as a sign of respect.

At the chef's request, Rogge signed his chef's hat. The chef thanked him again and again and left.

The 100,000 gold coins are dividends from the Bauhinia family's sale of imitation holy fruits and improved dishes. After receiving the second dividend, Rogge was surprised by the amount of dividends, and had already taken the initiative to modify the contract content once, changing the profit from four cents to two cents, giving up half.

The young man is a sincere person, after all, he didn't do anything, and he felt uncomfortable with such a high dividend.

The patriarch of the Bauhinia family lamented Rogge's personality, directly gave 200,000 gold coins, and announced that the Bauhinia family was his eternal friend.

At that time, it was the time when money was needed for the construction of the territory, and Rogge did not refuse.

This time, the dividend has almost doubled, and it seems that the Bauhinia family's catering operation is indeed very good, and its market may have extended to the whole world.

As soon as Rogge had finished collecting the money, a fresh aroma mixed with the aroma of wine suddenly sprayed to the side of his face, and he turned his head and almost kissed Orfina's delicate lips on the spot.

"Nana?" Rog picked up the somewhat shaky girl and put her on the chair.

Orfina held out her little hand to him in silence.

It took her a long time to "fight wits and courage" with a martial saint-level powerhouse, so she had to come with 70,000 gold coins, and she had to have hostages. As for Rogge, someone else took the initiative to send 100,000 gold coins.

The gap is a bit big, and the girl can't accept it.

Rogge, of course, understood what Orfina meant, "Uh, Nana, I'm afraid one hand isn't enough. ”

100,000 gold coins were exchanged for jade coins, and there were also 1,000 pieces, which was a big lump, and Orfina was a magician, and she couldn't hold it in one small hand.

Hearing this, Orfina sniffed and spread her hands outstretched.

Rogge handed her a bag of jade coins, "Nana, you're drunk. ”

"I'm charming!"

"Then my money is all yours, why are you angry?"

Ofina was stunned for a moment, and instantly smiled, "I'm charming!" ”
