The hustle and bustle of the people outside the castle at the celebratory banquet broke the silence of the night,
The Dusasks who seized the northern territories have gone out of the way with the fall of Kuhn Castle.
The Dusmore family of Kasha City has returned to the Falcon family since the new announcement, and has been exiled by the patriarch Dusta to a small village on the northern border to become the village head.
Several side branches in the south that had originally announced their separation from the family also soon sent letters of surrender, and the originally divided territory was reunited under the banner of the family's orthodox Dusta.
But the old butler of the castle now put on a sad face, looking at the door of Du Yu's study that was tightly closed.
Ten stout family guards were standing tall and standing in two rows, their chainmail hands tightly pressed against the hilt of the knight's sword at their waists, their eyes vigilantly scanning the servants coming and going at the door, and the murderous momentum kept all the curious people away from the door of the study.
Just when everyone outside the castle was happily toasting each other and celebrating the unity of the family, under the cover of the inky night, three strange knights came to the castle to protect a mysterious person wrapped in purple robes, and asked for an audience from the lord.
It seems that the young master who has long known that someone will come is very happy to invite the mysterious person into his study, and specially arranged for the guard to guard the door of the study, and no one is allowed to disturb without the young master's personal consent.
Lidastov, the vice president of the largest smuggling organization in the north of the kingdom "Hertha", carefully looked up and down with interest at the fat man in front of him who looked harmless to humans and animals,
Ever since he entered the fat man's study, the fat man has put on a docile appearance, like a fat bear who has eaten enough food and is napping in his nest.
It's hard to associate the momentum of your opponent with the mysterious master who defeated and captured the North's famous Silver Emblem Storm Knight Statunenko.
Although Lidastov had heard all kinds of absurd and strange legends about the new patriarch of the Falcon family along the way, he had never looked at the opponent of this negotiation until he saw this docile fat man.
"The blessed knight of the dragon slayer, the keeper of the artifact, and the master of the Falcon family"
In Lidastov's eyes, these glorious names were at most an ordinary means for the lords to put gold on their faces.
These inexplicable titles and absurd legends can be found in dozens of random kingdoms.
Lidastov, who has the strength of the Knight of the Silver Cross, once personally twisted off a "dragon slayer lord" who tried to take advantage of the fire to rob during a smuggling trip, and the lord who claimed to have been "dragon slayer" was like a fluttering fat hen in Lidastov's hands.
However, the opponent's idle feeling of "willing to take the bait" made Lidastov can't help but put away his contempt and feel a little cautious,
The most important thing in negotiations is momentum and rhythm, according to the opponent's personality to develop their own way of talking, and now the opponent's posture makes Lidastov, who has always been good at negotiation, feel tricky.
I didn't expect to find a master negotiator in this small place!
"30,000 gold coins and 1,000 sets of infantry leather armor are the biggest exchange conditions we can take, I believe this is enough to compensate for the loss of the Falcon family!" Lidastov decided to stimulate the fat bear on the other side who was pretending to be napping first, and see the other party's reaction.
"Yes, I am so grateful! I am too excited for a knight with silver emblems to be able to exchange such a great price! That lord is really generous!"
Hearing the ransom thrown by Lidastov, Du Yu, who was still drowsy just now, suddenly came to his senses, and his face was excited like a beggar who had been hungry for a few days and was invited to participate in a rich and grand banquet
"It's been a long time, this is an idiot! Don't he know that Duke Stiencusa's face is worth more than a knight with silver emblems!"
Lidastov wiped a handful of saliva sprayed all over his face by the fat man who was in high spirits, and looked at Du Yu who was still spraying saliva in front of him with a stiff face, although he still maintained a negotiation smile on his face, but he had already despised his opponent fiercely in his heart.
"In order to thank Lord Stiencousa for his generosity, and to celebrate the eternal prosperity of the family, I have decided to designate today as Friendship Day in the territory" Du Yu stood up from his seat with a happy face, holding Lidastov's hand with both hands and swaying excitedly, like a child who has picked up his long-lost beloved toy.
"Come with me, Lord Envoy, a triumphant feast is taking place outside the castle, and all the people of the nearby villages are coming, and I will now go with the Envoy to announce my decision to the whole realm, and not only that, but I will also make this Friendship Day a rehearsal into an opera, and a poem in which the whole kingdom will know the friendship and glory of our Falcon family and the northern lion Stian Cusa."
Lidastov's body, which was about to stand up, was frightened by Du Yu's words, and sat back suddenly,
What Du Yu said just now was like a thunderclap that scared Lidastov, who was still complacent just now,
This time, on behalf of the Stiennes family, he came to negotiate the ransom of the Silver Emblem Knight Statunko, and the real purpose was to hope that the Falcon family could help cover up the scandal of the Stiencusa family's help in seizing power from foreigners.
If it is really hyped up by the Falcon family for some "Friendship Day" or opera and poetry that praises Friendship Day, it will be like a whip slashing on the glorious face of the Stienic Cusa family.
The Herta Chamber of Commerce, of which he is the vice president, can become the largest smuggling organization in the north, completely relying on the gecko of the Stiencusa family, the strongest family in the north.
Lidastov gritted his teeth and cursed in a low voice, Lidastov obviously felt that he was being played by this fat man who pretended to be stupid, and he was angry as if he had put himself in a blazing fire to roast, and the cold air made Lidassa, who had the strength of the Knight of the Silver Cross, feel that his whole body was trembling.
"Let's go, Lord Envoy, the banquet outside is about to begin, and my favorite roast suckling pig is about to be served! That crisp and fragrant roast suckling pig sprinkled with expensive spices will definitely make the envoy feel that he doesn't need this trip!"
Du Yu spitted saliva while struggling to pull Lidastov, who was lying on the seat and couldn't stand up, the two of them were like a tug-of-war, and the fat man's huge strength showed that Lidastov's right hand hurt as if it was about to be broken.
This made Lidastov, who has the strength of the Silver Cross Knight, feel secretly frightened, it seems that the rumor that this fat man personally captured the Silver Emblem Knight Statunko alive is not groundless, with this brute force alone, it is definitely the strength of a Bronze Cross Knight.
"Lord Dusta, I think we need to talk more carefully about the details of the compensation, so we don't need to go to the banquet!" Lidastov tried to break free from the right hand of the aching hair wood that was grabbed by Du Yu, but it felt like he was firmly clamped by an iron tong.
"This dead fat man did it on purpose! It must be on purpose! I didn't expect that I would look away today!"
Lidastov felt like he had been caught as a prey by an angry bear, and was forcibly pulled out of his seat, but the humanoid bear only shouted with a sincere face
"Hurry up, Lord Envoy, my roast suckling pig is about to be served, it is a roast suckling pig smeared with the most expensive spice Yu Lan, do you know Yu Lan? That is a magical spice produced in the distant Oriental Continent, for these Yu Lan, it cost me a lot of money!"
Du Yu forcibly pulled the grief-stricken Lidastov out of his seat with his right hand, and while forcibly pulling to open the door of the study, Lidastov felt for the first time the desperate feeling of the "dragon slayer" lord who had broken his neck before.
"50,000 gold coins, 2,000 sets of infantry equipment! As long as you don't spread the word about this, it's easy to say anything!"
Lidastov's voice almost shouted out with a crying voice, if he got out of this door, the arrival of his envoy could no longer be concealed, this time the secret representative of Stien Cusa came to negotiate, if he was stabbed out by this reckless fat man, it would not be much different from slapping Duke Stian Cusa in the face, and it would be a shame to spread it.
Du Yu's fat body stopped, which made Lidastov's nervous heart that was about to jump out of his heart ease slightly, and he hurriedly sneered
"My lord, we can talk about any requirements! I believe there will be a result that everyone is satisfied with."
"Roast suckling pig is my favorite dish, you see I gave up because I wanted to negotiate with you!" Du Yu turned his head back to look at Lidastov with a slight tremble, and his pitiful eyes hesitated between the gate and Lidastov.
"Sixty-five thousand gold coins! plus 1,200 sets of infantry equipment!" Lidastov shouted almost through gritted teeth, he just wanted to negotiate with this rotten man as soon as possible, and if he continued to torture like this, Lidastov felt that he was about to go crazy!
"That's a golden-flavored roasted suckling pig sprinkled with expensive blue grass!"
Du Yu still dragged Lidastov towards the door again, and Lidastov, who was tall and tall, clung to the pillar in the center of the study like an abandoned resentful woman.
"Seventy thousand gold coins, fifteen hundred sets of infantry equipment! That's all, even if you drag me out to parade the streets, I won't be able to come up with more!" Lidastov desperately hugged the pillar of his study, his whole body bowing like a fat koala.
"I didn't expect the envoy to be so generous, and I can't be too rude as a host!"
Du Yu looked at Lidastov, who was already completely paralyzed on the ground, and slapped his palm three times against the door, and the loud voice attracted the guards at the door.
"Go and bring my favorite roast suckling pig into my study, I'm going to enjoy it with someone!"
