Chapter 305: The Crimson Knights

Sunshine Silk Heron Pavilion.

One of the most luxurious hotels in Old Oak City, it is a six-story building from the outside, with the exception of the top floor, which is a place of entertainment, singing, dancing and drinking, with a fairly open program and a decent service in the evenings, including slave captivity, and many activities backed by the laws of the Kingdom.

On the top floor, in a spacious living room, two leaders of the local chamber of commerce had arrived, and were sitting in their seats waiting, the dinner had just served dessert, the main course of the barbecue had been changed three times, and the beautiful girls in half-clothed clothes stood in a row on each side, and the faint fragrance of flower dew permeated the hall.

When Jiang Yuan arrived, the two leaders of the Chamber of Commerce got up with a smile, Prince Shaliye was not loved by King Asra like the other previous heirs, this is a well-known thing, but he can undoubtedly meet His Majesty, even if he just says a word that is not light or serious, his prestige is by no means comparable to ordinary nobles.

"Let them all out."

Jiang Yuan sat down and glanced around cursoly, there were at least more than a number of secret spies, business undercover agents, and people with evil intentions, and this situation was the same among the nobles, time greatly increased the opportunity to bury secret spies in each other, and whether the news within the family was circulated or not depended on the price that other nobles were willing to pay.

Cacy waved his hand lightly, and the maidens saluted and exited the hall.

"Your Highness, I don't know what is going on today, and the two of us are bound to share your worries." Odell said that he was a middle-aged man, with two strands of beard meticulously groomed, a fine dress, and three jeweled rings on his fingers.

Behind the main seat, the Holy Armor handed out a list, Ancient Oak City is an important smuggling hub, and there are three people who can be regarded as leaders of the local Chamber of Commerce, Casse, Odell, and Merrier, all of whom are well-known merchants in the vicinity, and have the right to half tax granted by the old viscount in the territory.

"Why didn't Merrier come?" Jiang Yuan asked directly, he is now acting for Xia Mi's power, which is equivalent to the lord's call, and if the other party does not come, the meaning of confrontation is very obvious.

"Mérier is seriously ill...... I guess it's hard to get to the feast. Odell deliberately looked embarrassed.

Jiang Yuan nodded and said, "I hope that the two of you can merge the various chambers of commerce in the city to form a consortium, and then reorganize the smuggling channels, and plow shares according to the volume, so that you can borrow my name for this." ”

"Your Highness, integration involves all aspects, involving too many people, it is not something that can be done overnight, and people think that it is necessary to think about it in the long run." Kasai sighed, not all merchants are willing to directly rely on the nobles and be the leader themselves, at least the benefits are controllable.

Jiang Yuan raised his hand, and the holy armor received the order to draw his sword suddenly, and came to the curtain at a speed that definitely did not belong to the superior swordsman, the blade passed through the curtain, and then pierced through the dark whistle behind, blood trickled out from his heart, and the second sword that followed cut off the head, sending the howl of the dark whistle back to his throat.

The two leaders of the Chamber of Commerce stood up suddenly, with horror on their faces, the secret whistle was their person, responsible for delivering the news in time, after his death, the parlor almost became a Jedi, considering Shaliye's distinguished status, neither of them let the guards in to disturb the eyes, the prince should have been the most adaptable and decent guy present.

"He didn't dare to come because it had something to do with the Tumiit family?" Jiang Yuan said lightly.

"Merrière is the cousin of the Viscount, who was then the deputy head of the Rose Knights." Odell replied with a bowed head.

"After tonight, there will be no more of these people, the Scarlet Knights will exterminate the rebellion, leaving one percent of the assets confiscated, and the rest will be handed over to the Viscount's Mansion, and the chambers of commerce behind the two must be reorganized and merged, and the name will be the Charmis United Chamber of Commerce, and you are not allowed to leave before dawn."

The door to the parlor was opened, and two mid-level soldiers led their teams inside, their swords unsheathed.

Jiang Yuan and Shengjia left the Sunshine Silk Heron Pavilion, and in the carriage, the viscount, who invited the deputy chief of the knights to attend the opera house, personally sent them out of the city, and the scarlet knights in the castle lined up, led by thirty middle-level soldiers, and three hundred and fifty regular soldiers quickly advanced towards the Merrier Chamber of Commerce in the western district.

At the same time, the carriage also set off towards its destination.

An hour later, hundreds of people surrounded the headquarters of the Merrier Chamber of Commerce, the Black Hound flags of the Crimson Knights fluttered, the surrounding streets were silent, and the people did not know what was happening, but several blocks to the left and right had been taken over.

"Your Highness, what do you mean by this, Tumitit is still the Viscount who calls the shots after all, I don't believe she will agree to you leading troops to make such a move."

The tall and handsome young man said calmly, but after looking around, his face became a little ugly, and the soldiers surrounding the headquarters were not shaken at all by the presence of the viscount.

Three high-ranking swordsmen and a dozen guards stood behind him, most of them adventurers recruited by virtue of wealth and kindness, and with the great help of the deputy chief of the Knights, the future of the president was extremely bright.

"Why don't you come?" Jiang Yuan sat on the back of the alchemy war horse and said, his tone was like an ultimatum.

Merrier's face sneered, he didn't believe that the other party dared to act, Shaliye had just been here for a week, if he killed Tumitit's important relatives, the viscount's reaction was not asked, this guy wantonly planted people in the Knights, and today he even planned to interfere with the Chamber of Commerce, he simply regarded himself as the king of the territory.

There was no order, at a certain moment, hundreds of alchemy soldiers bent their bows and arrows at the same time, the arrow rain fell forward, more than 20 guards were almost dead on the spot, a high-level swordsman blocked in front of Merrier and was shot into a hedgehog, the holy armor took the lead, and the powerful explosive power made him come to the target in an instant, and a powerful slash cut off the iron sword and the body of the second high-level swordsman together.

Merrier fell into a stupor, blood splattered on his face and took away his ability to think.

The last swordsman stabbed into the back of the armor, and just then, an arrow wound around four wind blades struck and pierced through the enemy's head with swiftness and ferocity.

The Chamber's guards were not at all comparable to the regular Knights, and the battle was won or lost in less than a minute.

"How dare you kill me!?" Merrier was furious, "You're just an outsider! ”

Jiang Yuan walked into the Chamber of Commerce without squinting, and the Holy Armor cut off the head of this guilder, given the diversity of species, no matter how strange the other party's reaction was, it was not enough to surprise him.

"The gold coins, ores and materials are taken away, and the rest of the things are sold to the Chamisi United Chamber of Commerce, forty percent is used to buy military supplies, one percent tells those merchants to shut up, and the rest of the gold coins are sent to the Alchemy Tower, which will be completed within one day." Jiang Yuan said that he didn't think about whether the time was tight or not, how to solve the matter of Odell and Kase, he only needed money, if it wasn't for long-term development, a chamber of commerce would not stay tonight.

"In addition, this building will be used as a station in the future, and the inside will be repaired."

"Understood." The Holy Armor replied.

On the top of the houses in the residential area, a dark shadow quickly approached, and Shengyi rushed with the head of the deputy head of the Knights.

……

At noon the next day, it was dark and cloudy.

Led by the ancient oak consul Jory, the Tumitit's people gathered in large numbers to protest outside the Viscount's Castle.

Last night, Charier mercilessly killed Merrier and the deputy chief of the Knights, and this act of seeing no one in his eyes caused the anger of the crowd, and the prince of the previous generation did not have the slightest sense of being a member of his own family.

Because it was King Asra himself who gave the marriage, there was no option to repent, but apologizing and handing over the property were the only way to resolve the conflict, and the baronial family behind Merrier, that is, Shamis's grandfather, had already raised an army, and the death of his son-in-law and eldest grandson made the old man almost lose his mind.

The force consisted of one hundred and fifty horsemen and five hundred and fifty experienced peasants, and a total of seven hundred men had left the barony this morning, and it was unlikely that Shalier would pay for his life, but he had to give an account.

Due to internal strife, the surrounding nobles are watching the play, hoping that Shaliye will be reckless to the end, involving several important relatives of his fiancée, even the king will feel a little tricky, this is not a problem that the Yi people can easily solve.

Inside the Alchemy Tower.

Xia Mi held the candied fruit box and watched with great interest as the alchemy soldiers walked out together, she had no relationship with Tumiit, so she naturally didn't care what outsiders thought.

Before noon, the two leaders of the Chamber of Commerce took the initiative to send the gold coins to the castle, and someone killed Merrier, so that the name of the Mad Prince began to spread, and the United Chamber of Commerce was established at an astonishing speed.

"What are you going to do?" Natsumi asked.

On the black iron seat, Jiang Yuan sat down to alleviate his fatigue and used magic to heal himself, he now lost a lot of blood.

The essence of healing magic is to stimulate life force through magic, in simple terms, it is kryptonite, whether you can do it or not, but this time it is indeed close to affecting health.

"Confined."

"Confinement?"

"Otherwise, how could I be so sick that I can't attend the wedding, there must be some signs and reasonableness."

"What about the situation outside?"

"Give out the place of deputy chief of the Knights, let those Tumiit choose whoever to hold it, remove Jory's consulship position, pass it to his heir, the more virtuous of the three males, increase the number of adjutant in the order, redivide the half-tax power, and the rest will come in a similar way," Jiang Yuan looked at the soldiers, "We can't lose, after all, they don't dare to force the prince to die, the wisest thing to do is to be honest and obedient, because of the size of the Scarlet Knights, the old baron will eventually retreat, and if he doesn't retreat, others will help him retreat, However, it is estimated that the title is about to be replaced, remember to give his eldest son a name. ”

Nearly half of the harvest this time was ore and monster materials, and the gold coins had been collected to 1,400, and the third operation of the Alchemy Pagoda had just ended.

A Juggernaut.

One hundred alchemy war horses.

Six hundred regular soldiers.

Sixty-five intermediate swordsmen.

After the refining is over, there are still 100 gold coins left, and the two of them each take half of it, which is used for wedding needs and daily use.

Now the Scarlet Knights are headed by Saint C, leading a hundred mid-level soldiers and a thousand regular soldiers, equipped with two hundred alchemy horses, and their strength should not be underestimated, far superior to the Rose Knights.

"Let's prepare for the wedding as soon as possible, I will take advantage of this time to cultivate to the level of a high-level swordsman."

"It's tiring."

"Let Merielin help you, you won't help anyway."
