Chapter 901: Insults to the fullest
These gold coins are the commissions paid by Lin Qi to Aton.
Hiring tens of thousands of mercenaries at a time requires a lot of work, and the employees of the entire mercenary union have to be busy, counting the number and personal information of mercenaries for Lin Qi, and even enthrone their places of origin, as well as their historical employment records, select excellent and qualified mercenaries from them, and remove those scum with bad records.
This is an extremely complicated job, so Lin Qi pays millions of gold coins as a commission, although the price is a little higher, but it is indeed worth the money. Because this is not a one-shot deal, Lin Qi still has a lot of things that the mercenary guild needs to help deal with in the later stage, such as sending the families of these mercenaries to the Longshan territory, which requires the guild to contribute.
So this money is President Aten's money, and it's the mercenary guild's money!
In the halls of the mercenary guild, he wants to take advantage of the guild! Well, President Arten is big-hearted and generous, and he doesn't care about the loss of two or three gold coins--in this way, that's really a ghost! This is the age when two or three gold coins can buy a human life!
President Aten's eyes were red, he swung his long sword fiercely, and shouted fiercely: "Who dares to touch a copper child of the guild, the mercenary guild will hunt him down all over the continent! Damn, great mercenary god, someone dares to touch your gold coins on your territory!"
The mercenary captains stared at Graham even more viciously, the stingy, mean-spirited, vicious fat man who had remembered this disgusting fat face for the past few years.
Slade clenched the inferior holy weapon in his hand, he turned his head to look at Lin Qi, and said in a deep voice: "Lord of the family, if you are willing to pay a copper child and solve all the legal troubles for me, a copper child, I will kill him for you!"
Barba exhaled heavily, and he sneered, "A copper, Slade, you shameless fellow!" If the head of the house can give me half a piece of straw paper to wipe my ass, I can also help the head of the house kill him! This guy, he is worthless! It's just that he is a nobleman. Although he is a garbage aristocrat, he is a nobleman after all!"
The leader of the Demon Fury Mercenary Regiment, a silver-haired old woman aged about eighty, said coldly: "Don't be playful, as long as the head of the family can prevent the official from pursuing the death of this damn fat pig, there are many people here who are willing to kill him for free!"
Glaring at Gramm, the silver-haired old woman sneered, "Everyone has a lot of relatives and friends, have you been cheated by this dead fat man?"
The many mercenary captains present. and the elite mercenaries they brought with them stepped forward at the same time, and they stared at Graham like a pack of hungry wolves taking a fancy to a fat little fragrant pig, eager to chew him up and swallow him with a bite of the belt, and then turn him into dung and take him to the fertile field as quickly as possible.
Graham took a few steps back with an ugly face, and he screamed sharply: "God, Vyas is a place with laws! What is the crime of attacking nobles if you dare to touch a hair of mine? You should know! If you dare to kill a nobleman, then the nobles of the entire continent will be your enemies!"
Lin Qi immediately took two steps forward, and he smiled and bowed to Graham. "I'm sorry, but this definitely doesn't include me. If someone kills you, then I will help him solve a legal trouble, and no one will hold anyone accountable for your death!"
Graham looked at Lin Qi viciously, and he said word by word: "Your name!"
Lin Qi glanced at Graham deeply, and he said in a deep voice: "Longshan family, Turing, Andelham, Longshan, you can call me Your Excellency Earl Turing......! Tiny, insignificant Baron Graham!"
Light a cigar. Slowly taking a puff of smoke, and then slowly spitting the smoke on Gramm's face, Lin Qi asked softly, "Can you tell me, are you a new nobleman?"
Shrug your shoulders. Lin Qi turned around and smiled at the mercenary group leaders present: "Nobles, there are many kinds of nobles, aren't they?"
The head of the mercenary group laughed knowingly, just like Lin Qi said, even if it is a noble, there are many kinds of nobles in the Western Continent.
One is the blood nobility, these families have been passed down from the dark calendar period, the family history is at least more than a thousand years, the ancestors of the family are the kings of various city-states, or the nobles and valiant knights under the command of those kings, etc. The ancient blood nobles had a great reputation in the Western Continent, and even the smallest knight, as long as his family was inherited from the Dark Calendar period, then their people could hold their heads high in high society without bowing their heads to anyone.
There is also the Glory Nobles, which are those nobles who have created the power of large and small kingdoms after the Dark Calendar. These nobles may not have as long a history as the blood nobles, but they are often related to the blood nobles, and they are extremely capable, powerful, and powerful families.
For example, the current royal family of the Gallic Empire, the royal family of the Caesar Empire, and so on.
Just like Caesar's royal family, their surname is Andlem, and they have the same roots as the Longshan family, and they are all descended from the Dark Calendar Bloodline. Perhaps Caesar's royal clan was just an insignificant branch of the great blood nobility, but when this branch established an empire, then they could be called glorious nobles!
The glory nobles are second only to the blood nobles in the noble circle, and they can even be compared with the blood nobles in many cases.
Under the glorious nobles, there are ordinary military nobles and meritorious nobles!
The nobles who have been inherited for more than 200 years, started because of wars, or were appreciated for serving emperors and kings, and finally received knighthoods, are sergeant nobles and meritorious nobles. Just like the Lion General Marquis Stein whom Caesar's Empire knew Lin Qi, he was a military aristocrat through and through.
These aristocrats often held the real power of a country and had the most practical influence on the continent.
And the so-called new aristocracy...... Well, it can also be called a gold nobility! This kind of aristocracy, because of the emergence of the Vyas Commercial Federation, flooded the entire Western continent in large numbers. This aristocracy is contemptuously called in aristocratic circles as nouveau riche, hillbilly, worms who want to climb up the ladder, and so on......
This kind of aristocracy is often only twenty or thirty years old, and every word and deed, every move is disgusting, in the aristocratic circle, they are ostracized, many big people, those real nobles, and never even under the same roof as the new nobles.
But with the recovery of the mainland economy and the development of commerce in various countries, there are more and more such new aristocrats. Not only the Vyas Commercial Federation, but also many other countries, there are countless merchant families who come to Vyas to buy one or several nobles and go back to show off triumphantly.
Therefore, although the new aristocracy was despised, they also had extremely large financial resources and resources, and they were also part of the ruling class above the common people. Although the core of the ruling class does not admit this, ordinary people think so!
So, Lin Qi could contemptuously spit the smoke of his cigar in Gramm's face and contemptuously ask him if he was a new aristocrat!
Even if Lin Qi's title was bought, but he bought the identity of the Earl of Longshan's family, then he belonged to the most honorable blood nobles and glorious nobles on the mainland, and his identity was very different from Graham.
"Answer my question, Mr. Gramme!" Lin Qi said slowly, "I, as the head of the ancient and noble Longshan family, I am issuing my commission here in the Mercenary Guild! And you, a new nobleman, an upstart who relied on gold coins in exchange for an unknown baronial title, who gave you the courage to come here at this time?"
Graham's face was purple with anger, he stared at Lin Qi deadly, and then slowly, slowly, with great difficulty, bowed to Lin Qi with great difficulty.
A flattering smile appeared on his fat face, and Graham said in a deep voice: "Your Excellency, please forgive the humble me for my inadvertent offense. Of course, I apologize for what I just said! But surely a noble man like you would not be considered rude to me, would he?"
Graham smiled humbly, his little eyes blinking, and from time to time an inexplicable cold light flashed through his eyes.
Lin Qi smiled and nodded, he spread his hands and slowly took a puff of smoke: "Of course, I don't care! A noble nobleman like me, why should I bother with you? Okay, you can leave!"
A fierce finger was pointed on Gramm's nose, and Lin Qi shouted: "Use your fastest speed, get out!"
Graham turned and walked away without saying a word, and he walked faster and faster, until he almost ran at last.
Lin Qi showed a hideous smile, he grabbed it casually, pulled out a fist-sized stone from the ground, and then smashed it at Graham. There was a strange sound, and the stone hit Gramm's fat heart, and a faint magical light flashed on him, and the huge impact of the stone smashed Graham seven or eight meters away, but it didn't really hurt him.
Ranged weapons are immune, and Gramm's magical equipment saves him.
With a few muffled snorts, Graham jumped up without looking back, and then fled as fast as he could, with the four servant wolves.
Today, in the mission release hall of the Mercenary Guild, all of Graham's face was trampled on the ground by Lin Qi. But he didn't dare to raise his head, he didn't dare to resist, even if he was already angry in his heart, but he still didn't dare to have any complaints.
A baron bought with money, against a big nobleman like the Earl of Longshan, Graham really didn't have that much courage.
He just gasped viciously and left the place as fast as he could. (Your support on this site is my biggest motivation.) )
