Chapter 5 Stewardship
"Young Master, through the observation of the past few days, do you guess what I have discovered?" While the line was waiting in line, Moses, who had come over with other adventurers, came to Gongsun Murong's side and whispered.
Gongsun Murong looked at the tall city wall covered with moss, and said casually: "You found that the Cheman Rodney knows too much, even including words. ”
"Yes, yes, young master, you are wise...... Did you find out?" asked Moses, looking surprised.
Gongsun Murong didn't answer such a boring question.
"Okay young master, I think he should be a butler, not a coachman, a real aristocratic butler. Moses had no choice but to say it himself.
Gongsun Murong bowed slightly: "Zhilu Dao, he used to be Baron Bulier's butler, Baron Bullier said that there must be a balancing technique, and appointed six butlers, and Rodney is the fourth butler. ”
"Huh?" Moses was confused.
Gongsun Murong continued: "Baron Bulier said that power should not be too centralized, it must be dispersed, and only when there is competition among subordinates can the position of the master be secured. ”
"Ah, stewards also have to compete, shouldn't stewards be absolutely trusted? I can't imagine what it would be like for a different voice to appear in a team of adventurers. Moses was dumbfounded.
He said critically: "Baron Bullier is really a pig, doesn't he know that the ability of a butler can always only be ranked second, and the first is loyalty?
"He didn't die, he ran away, his first butler offended someone who shouldn't be offended, he ran away with his wealth to another place, and no one knew where the road was. Then the debt signed by the other butlers fell to the butlers themselves, and Rodney was one of them. ”
Gongsun Murong seemed to be in a good mood and said a lot.
Moses slapped his head vigorously: "Oh my God, hapless Rodney, poor Rodney, his talent, his ability...... I think it's enough to have him alone, he can handle anything, he can have good relationships with everybody.
Young master, you see, all the horses, even the Tu calf beasts, are close to him.
There are other people's families, whether they are small children or the elderly, he can take care of them.
Rodney ordered everyone to move, but no one felt uncomfortable and was happy to follow his arrangement.
As long as such a person is loyal enough, does he need other butlers to compete?"
Perhaps Bullier feels a sense of accomplishment in playing with people's hearts. Gongsun Murong's tone was still so flat, but the adventurers could feel the anger from the young master's heart, angry at what happened to a former housekeeper.
"Yes, young master, his achievement is to escape, oh my God, it is safer in the desert, because human nature is simple, kill when you say it, rob it when you say it, you don't need too much calculation.
Oh, young master, please allow your servant to ask about something. Moses suddenly thought of something, and said in a reserved manner.
Gongsun Murong's eyes narrowed.
Moses hurriedly said: "Young Master, I know that I have asked questions that should not be asked, and I will ask questions directly in the future, rather than temptation." Young Master, can you tell me how you know the Dao?"
"Just like Nalasha and I pitched our tent before the seven of you arrived, just like when the Three Bladers were so far away from us when Nalasha gave directions. ”
Gongsun Murong stared at all the adventurers and said, "Nalasha's perception range is very large. Of course, I can also increase the perceptual distance if I want, but usually having Narasa is enough.
She didn't want to kill, but she didn't resist killing, and Nalasha preferred to have a group of people around her and live with her, and she didn't expect them to be very powerful. ”
"Ah, what about you, young master?" Moses asked the words in the hearts of all the adventurers.
"You don't understand me now. Gongsun Murong told calmly.
Moses found that his curiosity was itching to scratch it, and he always had to say it before he understood it, and if he did, what if he did.
Well, if the young master doesn't understand it, he shouldn't understand. It's like I don't understand that the young master and the young lady are obviously very powerful, but they have to sell water in the desert to earn that little bit of money.
"As for the things of the magic contract, are you sure you don't want to buy them?" Moses asked again, and the bearded man had a child-like look on his face, as if the baby looked at his parents on holidays, and the parents had promised that they could go to the playground.
"It's too expensive, Nalasha won't say yes, and I don't think it's necessary. ”
"Brother Murong is right, I asked, the cheapest one costs five thousand gold coins, and there are tens of thousands of hundreds of thousands, and I will definitely not agree. ”
Narasha's voice suddenly appeared in the carriage, and then in the stunned eyes of Moses and the others, her form appeared from the unreal to the real.
"Oh my God, space moves?" Moses whispered with wide eyes.
Nalasha's eyes were also rounded: "What kind of spatial movement? I sneaked over and refracted the light, you tell me what the spatial movement is all about?"
"Miss, speaking of space...... You better go to school and learn, your faithful servant is just a warrior, I'll go and line up. With that, Moses ran away.
Moses and the others lined up with the coachman Stoffher Rodney very indifferently, they understood that when they entered the royal city, the coachman did not have to behave too well, as long as he was orthodox, he would be appointed as a butler by the young master and the young lady.
It's not that the young master and the young lady don't know the importance of the way, but they don't care who betrays or not, compared to the arrogance in the bones of the people of Wangcheng, the young master and the young lady are indifferent in the depths of their souls.
"Boss, I have to admit that I really admire you, speaking of which, the Ben Thunder Mercenary Group and the Drifting Zero seem to be nothing. George looked back at the carriage that should have been only the young master, but now there were suddenly two people in the carriage and said.
"When I was in the desert, I was very afraid of being killed by them, you must know that the three swords of the Yellow Sand Blood Command died too quickly, and the young master killed them, and the young lady was actually not happy, because there was a lot of blood flowing. Moses spoke calmly about his initial judgment.
The adventurer near the two nodded approvingly.
As adventurers, they are ready to die at any time, but who doesn't want to have a strong support, so that their families can be taken care of after their death.
The Ben Thunder Mercenary Group and the Drifting Zero Mercenary Group have always been the holy places that adventurers yearn for, and the powerful strength of the two mercenary groups and the bits and pieces of their fortune are full of legends.
The previous dream actually appeared around me, and I believe that one day, I can compose a legend by the side of the young master and the young lady.
Today I saw the power of Miss again, is Miss the incarnation of the god of magic?
Look at the young lady who is still next to Stopher Rodney.
Obviously, that's not true, that's definitely ...... A true mirror image of the dream.
A young lady who treats magic as a natural ability, a young master who can't see people's strength, are these people favored by Lady Luck?
What's more important is that he has won the trust of the young master and the young lady, although the two of them are reluctant to spend money, but everyone knows that it is an excuse.
"Five copper plates, not one less, Carl, don't pretend to be pitiful, we know the truth, you are not poor, you always take strangers into the city pretending to be farmers from the surrounding areas, so as to deceive them of their benefits. ”
The voice of the gate guard interrupted the adventurers' thoughts, and they regained their composure and caution.
"Karl, today, today, I'm going to remove your mask of hypocrisy, oh! don't give me money, I don't accept any bribes.
Stranger, listen, it only takes five copper coins to enter the royal city, yes, five, as long as you obey the laws of the principality, you don't need to worry anything when you enter the city.
Karl, are you looking at me like that and trying to threaten me? Do you need me to tell you my name and my home address? Cliff, the captain of your upline city guard, has been tried for taking bribes, and I don't care how you describe it to the outsiders, but what I want to tell them is that the royal city of the principality is not hell, put away your little tricks. ”
The voice of the gate guard continued, followed by a crowd of people cursing at the man named Lady Klee. Apparently, his deception was exposed, causing the displeasure of others.
The episode at the gate seems to be short, so short that most people don't care, and some even smile.
But the coachman Stoffher Rodney frowned, and whispered to Nalasha beside him: "Respectable Miss Sorcerer, Cliff was still the captain of the city guard here when I came out, and he always cooperated with some people to bully the strangers, and then reaped the benefits of it, it seems that the Grand Duke can no longer tolerate his existence, do you understand?"
After waiting for five seconds, Narasha tilted her head and spoke, "Understood, Grand Duke Gors may have to make a big move, right? was once the fourth butler of Baron Blier's family...... Stoffer Rodney?"
"Huh, you?" said Rodney, the coachman, frightened.
"Oh, I'm not specifically investigating you, I know about the Dao because you always like to talk to yourself, I believe you understand, I ...... A sorcerer, right?" Nalasa smiled sheepishly.
"I ......" Stopher Rodney was frightened, and took several deep breaths in a row before he calmed himself down a little: "Actually...... Miss Naratha, not every sorcerer can hear the murmurs of others, and I won't be angry at your eavesdropping, I'm just ...... Just ......"
"Brother Murong and I need a qualified butler, and it is the only one, although we still have a lot of money, we don't want to pay the second butler.
Brother Murong and I agreed that as a master, we should help the steward pay off the previous debts in exchange for the steward's loyalty, you say, Stover Rodney. ”
Nalasha was jerky when she said these words, as if she was repeating and imitating someone else's words.
Stover Rodney was stunned, he looked at the other adventurers, and saw the meaningful smiles of the adventurers, and that little bit of ...... Expectation and blessings.
After pondering for a few breaths, he bowed, "As you wish, my master, Miss Narasha. ”
ps: If you think there are fewer words in this book now, you can go to see the other two novels that have been completed, "Pastoral Tang Dynasty" and "The Legend of the Dian Xiaoer", in fact, there is another one, but I feel that it is not well written, and I am embarrassed to say that it is called "Xingyin".
