Chapter 249: Diplomatic Problems

"Thank you Lord for your kindness, but it happened suddenly, and we didn't prepare a gift, can you give it a grace for half a day? Let's prepare? "The halfling leader took a delaying tactic.

"Okay, at noon today, I'll be in the manor, waiting for you at a feast, and we'll see you later." Gavin readily agreed, then turned cleanly and walked away.

As he walked, he wondered if his subordinates were suitable as diplomats.

In the future, this kind of thing can't be run by yourself.

But after thinking about it, I didn't think of one.

Since he became the owner of Vizeme Manor, he seems to have a lot of subordinates in his hands, but after careful consideration, there is no normal one at all.

The only one who can take the shot is the teenage priest Anna, but her temperament is too simple to do this kind of work.

Yes, you can only take one step at a time.

Gavin walked neatly on his side, but the halfling side was a bit difficult.

The halfling leader looked at the other five companions and said, "What do you think about this matter?" ”

"What can you think? Like you, we've just arrived here, and our information about this place is still stuck in the summer of last year. ”

"Then should we go to the appointment or not?"

"Of course we have to go to the appointment, if what the other party said is true, if we don't go to the appointment, we will have to change places in this year's summer habitat."

"But the Vizeme Manor is now a famous ghost manor, and it is haunted, who knows, whether the problems there have been completely solved."

"It should be solved, don't you see people's very intimate choice of noon? There's no night or midnight for you to get to an appointment. ”

"In this way, let's make a lot of preparations, and the matter of the ship summer perch chain will be postponed, and it will not be too late until we are completely sure of the situation here.

The soldiers divided into two routes, and followed me all the way to the manor to make an appointment to investigate the situation.

The other route is Elorica acting alone, didn't you say, you have a good friend here? They should be well aware of the situation. ”

The halfling leader was quick to make a decision.

Elorica's small face was full of helplessness, and she spread her hands and said: "This matter, I can only say to try, the escape of the essence, you don't know, they used to come to me, I want to find them, it's very difficult, whether they live here or not, it's still a question!" ”

"Anyway, try it first, and then say, the rest of you, go back with me to prepare gifts, and don't be late for the appointment." The leader of the halflings thought for a moment, and finally added, "Wait a while, go to Pastor Anlanka, ask for more holy water, forget it, I will go over this matter in person, it is best to ask Pastor Anlanka to accompany us." ”

The Vizeme Manor is now known for being haunted, and even if Gavin arranges the banquet at noon, these halflings are still a little uneasy.

Don't look at the fact that these halflings are only half the height of humans, and their mobility efficiency is not ordinarily high.

Soon a small cart of river fish was gathered, each one longer than their body, and the halflings who went to the Vizeme Manor were still six, except that the druid named Elorica was replaced by a priest named Anlanka.

"Wait!" When they were about to arrive at the gate of the Vizeme Manor, the priest of Ann Lanka suddenly stopped.

"What's wrong? Is something wrong with the manor? ”

"It's not going to be haunted here, is it?"

"But it's noon!"

The other five halflings were startled and asked repeatedly.

"No, don't guess." The halfling priest shook his head and said, "I seem to feel the holy breath of my lord, maybe there are parishioners here, if that's the case, you don't need to worry about ghosts, you walk slowly in the back, I'll go to the front to check the situation." ”

"Followers of Ilmat? If that is the case, then it will be the best news I have heard today. ”

"Your Excellency, please do it."

Several other halflings couldn't help but show a little joy on their faces.

Rather than dealing with ghosts, they would rather choose living people, even evil ones.

As long as their greedy desires are satisfied, most of them will not persecute them, but the ghosts are different, they will not be reasonable at all.

Pastor Anlanka, who trotted all the way to the gate of the Vizeme Manor, couldn't help but exclaim in surprise: "It's really a parishioner, Miss Good Day, the red rope of Ilmat, connecting you and me." ”

Anna, who was dragged out by Gavin to be the welcome lady, also did not expect that when she met the believers of Ilmat here, she immediately responded in a hurry: "Good day, lady, the red rope of Ilmat connects you and me." ”

The joy on Anna's round face could not be concealed no matter what.

As one of the three holy spirits, Irmat's reputation is not the loudest, but the creed is definitely the gentlest and most sacrificial. The most benevolent one, attracted by this creed, is a simple and kind person at heart.

Even if the two parties have never lived in life, the mere fact of Pastor Ilmat will make them feel good about each other and have great trust.

Looking at the two women, one tall and one short, one big and one small, one old and one young, both in height and age, there is a huge difference between them, just like acquaintances, no, relatives who have not seen each other for many years.

The thought that Gavin had previously dismissed rolled out again.

Anna seems to be more suited to be a diplomat than she thinks.

I just thought that diplomats should be delicate and able to solve anything on their own, but I forgot that winning the trust of others is the most important thing, and Anna's simple temperament will not only not become her shortcoming, but will become her greatest strength.

The Anna I knew in my previous life is not the kind of person who can collapse with a little twists and turns, on the contrary, she has an indomitable energy, even in setbacks, she has not forgotten her true heart and discarded her kindness, which is the most attractive place.

In this life, because of her selfishness, she was included under her wing in advance, and she seemed to be a little too protective of her, so that she had no chance to grow, at least the opportunity for character growth was missing.

This is my own mistake, and I must adjust my thinking, and I can't let a piece of jade just stay by my side and fall into the dust, but let her shine and walk out of her own new path.

"Madame Estelle and Miss Amanda, it is so good to see you again, we have been indignant at what happened to Madame and Mademoiselle, how can a good man not be rewarded? Now it seems that we complained a little early. Avery the leader of the halflings saw the lady and the lady of the estate of the Vizeme Manor, and the other half of his heart was completely put down.

It was not Colonfell who had dealt with them the most, but Estelle.

Colognfell spends most of the year selling wine on the Sambian side, and on the estate side, most of the time is managed by Estelle.

Esteller was known for her mildness, and they were taken care of by her at the beginning.

"Thanks to Mr. Gavin." Esteller smiled softly, "It was he who saved us from an endless nightmare and gave us a new lease of life, so, from that time on, we decided that by his side as a handmaiden, you can trust Mr. Gavin as you trust me."

He has been approved by Mr. Darnell, and if you had come two days earlier, you might have met Mr. Darnell, and he and Miss Regina had officially started working with us to make this year's new wine. ”

I didn't expect Esteller to be a social master.

In just a few sentences, he not only understated his own misfortunes, but also highlighted Gavin's role and the relationship between the two parties.

Especially the last sentence, which is more to show Gavin's credibility.

Although there is a suspicion of pulling tiger skins, it is really easy to use.

Neither Darnell nor Regina's popularity is far from being comparable to Gavin.

Hearing these two names, especially Darnell's, a look of abrupt realization flashed across the faces of those halflings.

If Mr. Darnell, who has the reputation of being the hammer of justice, had personally intervened, the problem of the Vizeme estate would indeed no longer be a problem.

Avery said to Gavin apologetically: "Lord Lord, I'm really sorry, we shouldn't question your sincerity, these catches are our gift of reparation, please accept them." ”

"I accept the gift, I can't make amends, in the case of not knowing the roots, prudence is a way to survive, after all, you represent not only yourself, but also your own people."

Gavin smiled and said, "Broken Thorn, put away the gifts, and fill the wagon with wild boars and hares, which is our return gift." ”

"Yes, my lord." The stabbing muffled and sullenly responded.

A dozen thumb-thick green rattans hung down and rolled up at the fishtail, hanging them up directly.

Then two wild boars and seven or eight fat hares slid down and stuffed the halfling's little cart to the bril.

Those halflings, who cared about everything else, were all shocked, and looked up in amazement to see the towering tree, it turned out that this was not a tree flag, but a tree man.

On his branches, there is still a large amount of wild meat that has not yet had time to be processed.

Gavin smiled and explained, "Don't panic, this is our companion, don't look big, very gentle temperament. ”

Although there is goodwill in cooperation, the force that should be shown must still be displayed, which will control more of the right to speak.

"I'm sorry, we didn't expect to meet a tree man here, it's rare and strange for us." Avery hurriedly said, "Thank you, Lord Lord, for your return gift, and we'll take it." ”

"I've set up a feast, please inside." Only then did Gavin get out of the way.

"Your Excellency, please."

The halflings followed Gavin inside, surveying the Vizeme Manor.

Old and decayed places can still be seen everywhere.

But in some places, it has been completely renewed, and at a glance you can see that it is not something that can be done by ordinary tinkering, but by the work of restoration and complete restoration.

The wine has passed three rounds, and the dishes have passed five flavors.

The two sides are basically familiar with each other, and Gavin directly pushes the topic to the point: "I have already found out the long-term employment contract you signed with Vizeme Manor, and studied it carefully, and on the whole, it is very reasonable.

As long as you agree, we can continue to follow this contract, and you will assist us in the management and harvesting of the grapes, and we will use half of the wine as a wage afterwards. ”

"We have no problem with this pricing." Avery responded cheerfully, apparently having been discussed before he came.

The cooperation with the Vizeme Manor is long-term, and it is extremely short-sighted to increase the price on the spot because of the special circumstances of the reopening of the manor this year.

Once this is done, the Vizeme Manor can hire a large number of hired workers from the outside and throw them away, which will have a great impact on their lives.

There is no more suitable place for them to recuperate in summer than the Yewen Pond and the Land of the Three Rivers.

Avery hesitated for a moment and said, "It's just those crops on the riverbank......"

"That's your rough breed, right?" As soon as the other party opened his mouth, Gavin knew what they wanted, "This crop of grain can all belong to you, but I have one additional condition." ”

The joy that the halfling had just revealed suddenly froze, anything, just afraid of this, but, he said stubbornly: "Lord Lord, please speak." ”

You are a genius, remember in a second: Red Sweet Spring:
