Chapter 6-for-tat
Just when Duke Charles didn't know how to react, Javier laughed and took the initiative to say hello: "Is Vice Speaker Murphy Lorrain referring to our Chamber of Commerce?"
Luo Lan snorted: "Running into someone else's house without permission and trying to steal something that belongs to someone else, this is not a thief, what is it?"
As a deputy speaker, he is unrelenting in the battle of words, and I have to say that Luo Lan's heart is really not very good.
Before Javier could reply, Raymond suddenly arrived: "Who has stipulated that the trade routes of the entire continent belong to you?
"You..."
Raymond's words made Loran furious: "We, Ravita, are the countries of the Veronica continent, what qualifications do you guys from outside the continent have to compete with us for business?"
Raymond spread his hands: "This is the most ridiculous remark I have ever heard, such things as trade routes, not land, they are intangible and insubstantial, just like money in circulation, whoever can control them, they are theirs." ”
"If someone wants to buy the goods of the Lowville Chamber of Commerce, can you still stop him from paying? ”
Raymond is usually easy-going and has never had much interest in pointless verbal arguments, but if he really wants to anger someone, he has a talent that has been inherited from someone.
Sure enough, after Raymond's combo, Luo Lan's face turned red with anger, but he couldn't find a rebuttal for a while, and he couldn't help but show a look of annoyance.
At this time, Deneck, who had not spoken, suddenly stared at Raymond and said, "What should this gentleman be called." ”
"My name is Raymond. Raymond glanced at him as well, and for some reason, he always felt as if he had seen this man somewhere.
"Raymond?" Denek's eyes flashed, "It's really you." ”
"Raymond. At this time, Loren also reacted: "It turned out that it was you, together with that woman named Charlotte, who stole the cities of Haydington and Auston in our Federation. ”
"Really?" Raymond said, pretending to be puzzled, "But, as far as I know, it is clear that the two cities themselves issued a statement asking for withdrawal from your federation." ”
"Without the demagogy of you people, how could those two cities have betrayed us? Lorraine Road.
Then he said to Duke Charles: "Your Excellency, you see, these people have come to our continent under the banner of doing business, but they are actually encroaching on our land, so you must not trust these despicable fellows. ”
At this time, Freddy said coldly: "Since Your Excellency said that we bewitched Charlotte, can you explain the things mentioned in the statement issued by Headington?"
"Where did the robbers who wreaked havoc outside Headington for nearly a year come from? Why did you remain indifferent to Beddington's several pleas for help? And who incited the three Hydington commissioners to rebel?"
"That announcement has spread all over the continent, you don't say we're lying, are you?"
Headington's withdrawal from the LaWitt Federation would have been a trifle. But Loran took it out to attack Raymond and the others, and now Freddie attacked the shield of the son with the spear of the son, which immediately made Loran speechless.
At this time, Denek said to Lorain: "My lord, don't pay attention to these people. Even if the young people can be proud for a while, they can't escape the punishment of justice in the end. ”
Raymond Ha smiled: "I don't think so, because sometimes the 'little guys' can also make the big people suffer a lot." ”
Raymond's casual rebuttal made Denek's eyes flash with incomparably deep hatred, as if this sentence reminded him of some bad memories.
At that moment, Denek's white eyes flashed a hint of scarlet, and his face also took on a terrifying grayish white in an instant, but it was fleeting, and it returned to normal in an instant, which made people suspicious of missight.
Just when Raymond was surprised if it was his illusion just now, a voice suddenly came: "Oh, interesting, I can see you here." ”
This voice was very familiar, Raymond didn't bother to explore the change in Denek just now, he turned his head, and sure enough, it was Dirk's "mad prince", Renard.
Seeing Raymond and the others, Renard showed a surprised expression, and he staggered towards this side. Several nobles who wanted to stop him from talking, but they were all directly ignored by him.
Duke Charles also saw him, and his face couldn't help but change slightly. It's no wonder that Dirk has always had ambitions for Gaspard, and the prince is especially troublesome for him, who is often crazy.
After settling down, Duke Charles quickly put on a smiling face: "Your Highness Renard, do you know these people too?"
"Ah, I don't know each other, but we only met in the morning. In the face of Duke Charlie's flattery, Renard just waved his hand casually.
As he spoke, he walked up to the three of Raymond and said with interest: "Although those centaurs intervened, Belen actually failed to kill you, which is a bit unexpected to me, and you can still blend in here... If you don't mind, can you tell me who you really are?"
didn't care about talking about killing people during the day in public, and even asking about the identities of Raymond and the others now, it was just because of their outstanding performance, which aroused Renard's curiosity. This prince's actions really cannot be justified by common sense.
The first time he came into contact with Renard, Freddie quietly observed the other party. Knowing that it was best for Javier to come forward to solve the problem at this time, Raymond did not speak.
Although he was almost killed during the day because of Reynard's casual words, Javier did not show any annoyance, and he said as usual: "Here is the representative of the Lowville Chamber of Commerce, Javier." ”
"The Lowville Chamber of Commerce?" Renard raised an eyebrow, "The Chamber of Commerce from the Modina Continent?"
"A bunch of dastardly thieves. Loran said in a deep voice.
The Lawitt Federation apparently preferred to regard their trade rivals as mortal enemies rather than military threats.
"Yes? I thought meanness was synonymous with all merchants. Renard asked rhetorically, feigned surprise.
Knowing that he was bored, Luo Lan snorted with an ugly face and stopped talking. Looking at the situation, Renard seems to have a lot of conflicts with Raymond's side, and he is naturally happy to see the two sides conflict.
"What happened during the day, please also ask Your Highness to be aware of it. It was just an accident, we didn't know the girl, and we didn't have any thoughts of going against His Highness, so the whole thing was..."Javier quickly took the opportunity to explain.
"That's right. Renard muttered, then nodded, "Okay, I see." ”
"What, really?" Javier was stunned, unable to believe how readily he had promised.
"Of course. Renard said indifferently: "Originally, I didn't think you could do anything, it was just for insurance." But since you weren't killed by Belen, forget it, I'm very busy. ”
After learning that it was a misunderstanding, Renard still did not apologize in the slightest. It seems that in his opinion, if Raymond and his party are killed by mistake, it can only be regarded as their bad luck, as for themselves, how can a few inconsequential people be worth paying attention to.
Perhaps this casual attitude of treating other people's lives as a dispensable thing is the source of Renard's arrogance. Therefore, even the veteran Javier couldn't help but be dumbfounded, and he didn't know what to say for a while.
Compared with Raymond and others, Duke Charlie and Lorraine and others did not show much reaction to Renard's words. They were only dissatisfied with Renard's arrogance, and did not feel wrong with his contempt for innocent human life.
"Hmph, nobleman. Freddie said mockingly in an imperceptible voice.
"Besides, if you have your words, I can teach these guys who only have money in their eyes a good lesson, why not?" At this time, Renard suddenly pointed at Loren and Denek and said: "I heard about the Lavuit Federation a while ago, and it was a good job, so this should be the case with these guys." ”
Unexpectedly, Renard would suddenly point the finger at himself, and use the matter of Headington to make a big sarcasm, Loren snorted angrily: "Your Highness, don't you approve of these outsiders doing whatever they want in our land?"
"What's not to do?" Renard spread his hands in surprise: "Whoever has the ability in this world should get more things, whether it is wealth, power, or land. ”
"It's a pity that there are too many incompetent people who occupy what doesn't belong to them, and it's a sad thing for the god-king. ”
"Your Highness, what do you mean by that?" Luo Lan said with a gloomy face.
"Isn't it?" said Renard, shaking his head, "for example, a group of merchants, who are mercenary and do good business, but occupy such a large piece of land and claim it to be their own, and the country under my feet is now controlled by the incompetent, and the Godan steppe, what a vast and beautiful place, but fall into the hands of barbarians and orcs. ”
"Ah, there are too many, there are so many, there should be fewer such guys. Then, the continent will change for the better. ”
Renard's words can be said to have satirized the three countries of the Rawitt Trade Federation, the Kingdom of Gaspard, and the Godan Prairie Alliance, and in front of each other, whether this person is arrogant or simply has few tendons, it is really unpredictable.
However, Raymond noticed that when he said those words, although Renard's demeanor was as arrogant as usual, only his eyes were completely wild, full of rare clarity.
It shows that when he said this, it was not a madness, but a deepest expression of his heart.
Unlike the anger of Duke Charles and others, Freddie's eyes lit up when he heard it. Renard's words were simply for a person like him who came from a humble background, had no talents, but was full of ambition.
It seems that this "mad prince" is not only blindly arrogant, under the cover of his appearance, there may be another face unexpectedly.
"Your Highness Renard, are you referring to us?" Finally, even Duke Charlie, who had the best cultivation, couldn't help it.
Before Renard could speak, he heard a thunderous laugh suddenly sound: "Hahaha, Dirk's dog prince, we meet again." ”
The sound was so loud that in an instant the noise of the entire banquet hall was almost completely drowned out. For a moment, almost everyone's eyes were on the person who spoke.
It was a tall old man. He is more than 2 meters tall, with thick bones and powerful holes, and looks like an iron tower from a distance, which is particularly conspicuous among the weak nobles around him.
The old man did not wear a gown like the others, but a robe made of animal skins, and his strong right arm was exposed, and the intricately patterned tattoos could be seen on the exposed skin. This outfit was by no means different from that of the nobility, and it immediately clearly and unmistakably indicated the identity of the old man.
"It's Patriarch Goodall. Duke Charles said.
This old man is none other than the representative of the Godan Steppe Alliance, the patriarch of the Wind Wolf Tribe, Goodall.
It seems that where there are Dirks, there must be a man of the angry Godan steppe, and this is true.
Taking a big stride, Goodale walked to the side, keeping his eyes fixed on Renard. Knowing the grievances between the two countries, the nobles on the road stepped aside.
Faced with Goodall's gaze as if he was about to kill, Renard was calm. He even said hello: "Patriarch, it turns out that you have always been worried about me." ”
"Well, of course. Goodale snorted: "Thanks to you, we have the prairie to be where we are today." Until I die, I will never forget this 'kindness'. ”
The hostility in these words could not be more obvious, if the previous conflict between Renard and Duke Charles and Loren still had a hint of civilization. Then as soon as Goodale appeared, sparks were scattered, which shows how much the hatred between the two sides has deteriorated.
"Haha, what a coincidence, we just happened to talk," said Renard.
I'm afraid that when he says what he just said, the impulsive Goodall will hear it, and I'm afraid it's not as simple as getting angry. Duke Charles hurriedly said: "Patriarch Goodall, you came just in time, Lord Loran has been waiting for you for a long time. ”
The Rawitt Federation and Godan Steppe are allies, and seeing Lorain, Goodall's face was slightly gentle: "Your Excellency the Deputy Speaker, hello, this winter's supplies, please..."
"Patriarch, please don't worry, we will organize a caravan to send the supplies that your country lacks for wintering. Without waiting for him to finish, Loren said.
Thanks to Renard, the already fragile economic system of the Godan Steppe Alliance has almost collapsed, and now all kinds of necessary materials are largely supported by the ally of the Rawitt Federation.
Goodale nodded gratefully, and at this time, he suddenly saw the three of Raymond and couldn't help asking, "Who is this?"
"Hello Patriarch, in Lower Javier, is a representative of the Lowville Chamber of Commerce. Javier had to introduce himself again: "These two are Raymond and Freddie. ”
There were heavyweights from all over the Veronica continent, and the opportunity was rare, so even if it was a few more times, the merchant would probably be happy.
"The Lowville Chamber of Commerce?" Goodall said suddenly, "It turns out that they are the people mentioned by Tavent. ”
"So Mr. Tavent has already told you. Javier said gratefully, "Thanks to his help, we're..."
Speaking of this, he suddenly remembered that Renard was on the side, and the words that followed couldn't help but be difficult to speak.
Seeing Javier's concerns, Goodale snorted, "I've already heard Tavent tell you what happened. Hmph, don't worry, His Highness Renard is never ashamed of what he has done. ”
As if he hadn't heard the sarcasm in his words, Renard was still smiling and wandering.
