Chapter 392: The Iron King (Page 1/1)

"Yes. Keane nodded.

Robbins joined the army with Old Blue many years ago, and they were brothers in a squad, Old Blue fought fiercely on the battlefield, and Robbins was calm and enterprising.

Seeing this familiar long sword, Robbins, who was covered in tendons, stood in place, as if recalling the original eventful years.

Robbins didn't speak, Keane didn't move, in terms of seniority, Robbins is his uncle, although he is an adult, Keane still respects the attitude of his juniors.

Half a minute later, Robbins woke up from his memories, took the long sword in Keane's hand, weighed it and said, "This sword is not heavy, it is a pity to melt the farming tools, and it can only be sold to those adventurers in the past." ”

Keane didn't speak, he listened respectfully, he knew that Uncle Robbins would not cheat him, this was an elder who had a fateful friendship with Old Blue.

"His Majesty, the newly appointed King this year, has issued an iron restriction order, and the price of iron ore has risen a lot, your long sword can be sold for a lot of money, but it is not much, you have to be mentally prepared. Robbins said. "Six silver delaves, that's the limit I gave. ”

When Keane heard this, he grinned and said, "It's too much, Uncle Robbins, you don't have to... ”

Robbins waved his hand to interrupt what Keane was about to say, "I've been striking iron for so many years, I won't do a loss-making business, don't worry." ”

With Uncle Robbins in mind, Keane thought about bringing Uncle Robbins some of the family's specialties the next time he came to town.

The original idea of this longsword Keane was to sell it for five silver Delle and it would be a loss-making deal.

If you haven't been on the battlefield, you don't know how heavy the friendship between comrades-in-arms is, The hardships of life make all the civilians in Shaka Town busy running around to make a living, even during the New Year's holidays, and rarely move around each other.

Only at the annual Oktoberfest, the town of Yaka and the people of the six surrounding villages come together to celebrate the event.

It was also that time of year that Keane needed to go home the next morning with Old Blue on his back.

People in their thirties and forties, when they are about to enter the earth, drink exactly as they did when they first joined the army, and hundreds of old men can drink a third of the Oktoberfest.

Keane actually didn't quite understand this so-called comradeship, now that Forstan was a strong country, there was no need for extra young men to enlist in the army, and Keane didn't have the opportunity to experience his father's original life.

"What else do you need, let's say it in one breath. Robbins said, looking at Keane. He didn't believe that Old Blue would sell his sword without warning.

"A silver ring, it doesn't need to be too heavy, it just looks good. Keane said with a blushing face.

Robbins glanced at Keane thoughtfully, "You have these two silver Dele, and the cost of creating the ring is four silver Dele." He turned around and went to the house to fetch two silver Delley, and Robbins slapped Keane's hand.

"Picked up a week later. With that, Robbins returned to the blacksmith room.

"Bell, bell!" The rhythmic voice came again, accompanied by a gruff roar from Robbins, "Be good to your wife, and let old Bru Shao move his stump leg!"

The words were rough, but Keane's heart warmed when he listened, and he thanked Uncle Robbins in the blacksmith shop again before leaving.

In the blacksmith's shop, the hammer that pounded the iron slowly stopped, and Robbins suddenly remembered his son, who was a tailor's apprentice in the Baron's city.

"Let's go see him in a while, I've been married for two years, and I haven't given birth to a grandchild, so I'm not as good as a cub of the old Blue family. Robbins thought.

"Bell, bell!"

Different people have different ways of living, and for ordinary people like Old Blue and Keane who live in the countryside, they may live a lifetime by farming every day and eating coarse grains that can fill their stomachs.

Maybe there will be ideals, countrymen don't understand what ideals are, ideals are the meaning of hope, Keane's current hope is to buy new cloth and silver rings for his wife, and Old Blue's hope is to live to see his grandson grow up.

The people of the city also have the way of life of the people of the city, and today everyone in the city of Flor, the capital of King Faustin, is very happy.

Their wise and great Majesty the King issued yesterday morning a decree covering the whole country: to reduce taxes for the second half of this year and 30 percent for next year.

Sancheng has a lot of taxes, for the residents of the royal capital, it is to pay a few silver deles a year, and for the rural farmers, it is to eat more than a dozen meals of bread outside of holidays.

The people of Flor were fond of gossip, and the reason why the king gave this order was because His Majesty's sister had returned home, and the king was overjoyed and issued this decree.

All Faustins who knew the reason were overjoyed by the return of the princess.

On the day of national celebration, Angelina, as the party concerned, was not in a happy mood.

On the contrary, since returning to Flor City yesterday morning, she has locked herself in her room, and anyone with a discerning eye can see Angelina's sadness.

Locke has tried to persuade her many times, but Angelina didn't say anything, just hugged Locke and cried, all Locke could do was stay with her since yesterday morning.

"Alas!" sighed King Kensel, dressed in fine clothes, outside the princess's bedchamber, holding the king's scepter.

It was a happy day for my sister to come back, but because she was so sad to hear that her father had passed away last year, even Kensel himself was a little thoughtful, and remembered the old king who was strict and silently devoted to himself.

"Your Majesty, the ministers and nobles are waiting in the side hall. An attendant walked up to Kensel and whispered.

After adjusting his emotions, Kensel's expression returned to calm, "Well, let's go over now." ”

The high-ranking squires of the kingdom who have been fighting for many years, and the first-class knights of the two marquis families have returned, some of the pillars of the family have fallen in the plane war, and some have greatly improved their strength, and brought back all kinds of precious materials, the small royal capital has begun to have an undercurrent, and Faustin is not as calm as it seems on the outside.

Kensel, who had been on the throne for a year, had just consolidated his royal power not long before he faced a major challenge.

"Tell the kitchen to prepare food for the princess and Locke Knight, and bring it in. Although he had gone far, Kensel's words still echoed in this dormitory.

The maids and servants who have only entered the palace in the last two years have realized that His Majesty Kensel really cares about his sister as rumored.

There was a lot of noise in the side hall, and before he could get close, the noise made Kensel's head hurt.

It is true that the king is not so easy to be a king, which is much more difficult than leading troops to war, and Kensel, who succeeded him for a year, knows it very well.

Seeing His Majesty come in, the voice in the side hall was a little weaker.

The reason for this is not because of their respect for the king, but because of fear.

When Kensel succeeded to the throne last year, several nobles and ministers were personally executed, and the small families involved in the destruction are unknown. The city of Flor lasted a month and was filled with blood.

This is an iron-fisted king, even stronger than the previous old king.
