Chapter 196: Blackmail
Aaron saw that Quentin only cared about looking at the beautiful woman, and he was already isolated, so he had to say helplessly: "I apologize for the inconvenience caused by the dog to Count Ivan, and I am willing to make compensation, as long as I can take it, Count Ivan just speaks." β
Wang Yong saw that the other party was so happy, of course he would not let go of this fat sheep, and said with a wicked smile: "Since the city lord has said so, then I am not welcome, just now my three subordinates who were bullied by you, you can pay them one hundred gold coins for the medical expenses." Hearing that Wang Yong only needed such a little gold coin, Aaron hurriedly nodded in agreement, and at the same time secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
But before Aaron could be happy for long, Wang Yong continued: "Also, the mental loss fee, equipment wear and tear fee, and the labor fee just now, for the sake of that, well, the face of the old man Bai, I don't want much of these three things, you can give 100,000 gold coins." As for the six of your men, how about a ransom of 1,000 gold coins each? I'll take care of you, right?"
When Aaron heard that Wang Yong asked for 100,000 gold coins as soon as he opened his mouth, he was on fire at that time, and thought: "Don't say that you don't have so many gold coins, even if you can get them, you won't give him so much, this goods is obviously treating yourself as a fat sheep, and I am also the lord of a city, when have I suffered such a loss, this turtle is really a bully for me." β
The more Aaron thought about it, the more angry he became, he slapped the table heavily, got up and stared at Wang Yong angrily, and was just about to go crazy, when he heard Quentin cough lightly, and then he remembered Wang Yong's super strong background, and what his future fate would be, completely between Wang Yong's thoughts.
So, Aaron forcibly suppressed his anger, sat down dejectedly, squeezed out a very reluctant smile on his face and said: "This, Count Ivan, 100,000 gold coins is too much, I, a small city lord, can't take out so many gold coins at all, you can see if you can reduce it." β
Wang Yong squinted at Aaron, thinking in his heart: "I don't know what that old man Bai told him." Not only did this thing not go crazy. still maintains such a kind attitude, it is clear that he is very jealous, it seems that he has to scare and scare him, and he is sorry for the people of the whole country if he does not slaughter him. β
Wang Yong straightened his face and said in a cold tone: "Then how much does the city lord plan to compensate?"
Aaron said with a look of embarrassment: "I, the city lord, have no extra income, I can take out a maximum of 10,000 gold coins, and these are all my belongings." β
In fact, 10,000 gold coins is already a lot. It is enough for ordinary families to live without worry for a lifetime, and it also exceeds Wang Yong's initial expectations.
But what kind of person is Wang Yong, he will never let go of a little oil and water, so Wang Yong was afraid of the table and feigned anger and said: "Who are you and me, 10,000 gold coins, what are you sending to ask for food? Believe it or not, I will go to Your Majesty to sue you." When the time comes, you, the city lord, don't have to do it, just wait for the roll to go home and farm. β
Wang Yong said this just to scare Aaron, he didn't think that he had such a big face that he could let the emperor remove a city lord for himself. But what Wang Yong didn't expect was that his threat coincided with Quentin's words.
Aaron shuddered when he heard this, and hurriedly explained: "Don't be angry, Count Ivan, or else." I will transfer to you several properties in my name. Those properties are also worth about 20,000 or 30,000 gold coins, and I really only have so much. β
Seeing that Wang Yong was still unmoved. Aaron said to Quentin on the side, "Master Quentin, you can help me talk." β
Quentin saw that he really couldn't hide, so he had to open his mouth and say: "Count Ivan, I know Aaron's family background very well, that's all, see if you can give me a face, just forget it." β
Seeing this, Wang Yong knew that this Aaron didn't have much oil and water, so it was better not to do too much, and take it when he saw it. So, Wang Yong sighed and said, "Since you have said so, old man Bai, I can't save your face, but I have one more request." β
Wang Yong turned to Aaron and said, "If you don't have any money, you can use someone to settle the account, and each person will pay two thousand gold coins, and I will send someone to you tomorrow to pick it up." β
Seeing Aaron's hesitation, Wang Yong was relieved and said, "Don't worry, I promise not to want your family, nor to those masters of yours." β
Aaron got Wang Yong's assurance, and hurriedly nodded in agreement, he was really afraid that Wang Yong would pick up his wife, son and those junior warriors just now, if that happened, he would have no face to live again.
Seeing Aaron nodding, Wang Yong showed a kind smile again, poured a bowl of coconut water for Aaron very politely, and chatted with him. Aaron was knocked hard by Wang Yong, how could he be in the mood to talk nonsense with Wang Yong, and agreed that tomorrow Wang Yong would send someone to pick someone and bring back the promised gold coins and the house deed, and then Aaron hurriedly got up to say goodbye and rushed back to prepare.
When Aaron walked to the door of the inn, he saw that the six subordinates were still lying on the ground and looked half-dead, and snorted coldly: "Hmph, a bunch of waste." Then he waved his hand and called a few subordinates to carry these unconscious 'masters' back.
Aaron got on his horse and walked home, thinking about how to make more money in the future to make up for today's losses.
After Aaron left, Wang Yong saw that Quentin still had no intention of leaving, and saw that he always looked at Amy with a smile when he chatted, intentionally or unintentionally, knowing that this old thief was not dead, and wanted to make Amy his student.
Wang Yong didn't mention Amy's matter, and he talked about it vigorously, and finally Quentin couldn't help it, and said to Wang Yong: "Count Ivan, can I talk to Amy alone?"
Seeing this, Wang Yong knew that Amy also wanted to learn from Quentin, after all, just like Quentin said, with the guidance of a master, there would be fewer detours in his future cultivation.
After Wang Yong hesitated for a moment, he said bluntly: "Old man Bai, I know your thoughts, but I have one condition, if you can do it, I will promise to let Amy be your student." β
Quentin's eyes lit up when he saw Wang Yong's relent, but out of vigilance against Wang Yong's character, he still asked very cautiously: "What conditions?"
Wang Yong stared at Quentin and said: "Amy is my fiancΓ©e, it is impossible to leave my side, if you want to be Amy's teacher, you must leave the professional guild, give up your previous political position and settle in my territory." Also, if you have time, you have to help guide these friends of mine, don't look at their combat effectiveness, it's okay, but there are still many things you don't understand in cultivation. β
Quentin let out a sigh of relief, patted his heart and said, "I thought what the conditions were, what you said is fine, I'll go back and pack up, and I'll go with you when you go back." β
Seeing that Quentin agreed so happily, Wang Yong asked with some doubts: "You just agreed? You don't have to sum up with President Jeffrey first, what if he doesn't let you go? After all, you know a lot of secrets of the professional guild, right?"
Quentin waved his hand and said nonchalantly: "There's no need, I'll just go back and tell Jeffrey, this is also what I said in advance when I joined the Professional Guild, I can leave at any time, and the Professional Guild has no right to forcibly keep me." As for the secrets of the guild, there is nothing, my Quentin's character can still be trusted, besides, I am not leaving the empire, going to you is actually more reassuring to the empire. Also, I'm just a magician who likes to study, and I'm not interested in politics at all, and I don't have any factions at all, so you can rest assured. β
Wang Yong looked at Amy, saw Amy nodding, and said, "Since this is the case, then I have nothing to say, and when we return to the territory, I will arrange a time for Amy to officially worship you as a teacher." β
Quentin was overjoyed, and very generously threw Amy a primary holy light magic crystal, and said excitedly: "You play with this first, I'll go back and clean up, and I'll come here tomorrow to teach you holy light magic, haha! After saying that, he got up and walked out, so happy that he forgot to say hello.
When Quentin, who was full of smiles, was about to walk out of the inn, Wang Yong remembered something and shouted loudly at Quentin's back: "Old man Bai, don't forget the magic equipment you promised to give Amy when you come tomorrow." β
Quentin waved his hand without thinking about it and said, "I can't forget, don't worry, that set of equipment is definitely suitable for Amy." With that, the old man floated all the way and left.
Seeing that the old man Quentin was happy from the bottom of his heart, and he was also extremely generous to Amy, Wang Yong's good impression of Quentin also increased a lot, if what he just said was true, then Quentin was definitely a good teacher, Amy studied with him, and Wang Yong was also very relieved.
Reagan asked Wang Yong, "Do you think Quentin is telling the truth?"
Wang Yong nodded and said, "I think it should be, but we can't take it lightly, let's observe for a while after returning to the territory." β
Then, Wang Yong turned to Mali and said, "You try to inquire about Quentin as much as you can in the past few days, but be careful, there are other shadow guards here, don't be discovered by them." Mali nodded and left.
Wang Yong looked at Amy, who was surrounded by a group of people, congratulating her on finding a good teacher. Amy also smiled and chatted with everyone, glancing at the Holy Light Demon Crystal in her hand from time to time, her eyes were full of love.
Seeing Amy so happy, Wang Yong will also smile, as long as Amy is happy, Wang Yong will be satisfied. In fact, even if Quentin really has a problem, as long as Amy is willing, Wang Yong will not object to Amy learning from Quentin, it is a big deal to use some means so that Quentin will not do excessive things.
Reagan secretly poked Wang Yong with his finger, and mysteriously motioned to Wang Yong to look at the stairs.
Wang Yong looked up and saw Sophia sneakily waving to Wang Yong and them, signaling them to come over.
Wang Yong estimated that the shadow guard had woken up, so he quietly asked everyone to rest early, and then returned to his room with Regan, Rook, and Wolf Head. (To be continued.) )
