Chapter 404

"Haha, you'll get used to it."

The soldiers of the First Army, who were familiar with their lord, looked at the shocked faces of the newcomers happily and almost died of laughter.

The total population of Nightfall Territory was less than 3,000, and their lord was probably going to blackmail them again.

"I'm going to report to the governor, the queen, and everyone in the empire." Field knocked on the wall angrily, "Someone betrayed us, defected to the Shadow World Sect, and wanted to kill the descendants of the Ross family."

"But I'm really not from the Shadow World Sect. You should have fought with the rebels. I haven't been here from beginning to end. I've been busy preparing supplies for the anti-rebellion army in Maple Leaf Territory."

"Yes, I swear in the name of the god of love." Florni also put away her former charm and said seriously.

"That's all my problem. I brought it upon myself, right?" Field said coldly.

"Of course not. The Star Copper Earl to whom I am loyal has already dispatched a combat God Chosen to be stationed in the fortress, strictly managing it to ensure that there will be no more spies."

"In addition, aren't these the military supplies and gifts of consolation that I brought with me?"

"Oh?"

Field showed an expression of as expected.

This fellow used both soft and hard tactics, first saying that the defense of his territory had been strengthened, warning him not to think of revenge, and then preparing a gift of apology.

Simon's diplomatic adviser stepped forward and shouted: "One hundred and ten carts of coarse flour, twenty carts of cabbage, two carts of dried bacon, thirty barrels of beer, two hundred sets of marching mats and cloaks, and some alfalfa for horse feeding. These are the predetermined supplies and have been delivered now."

Seeing Field's expressionless face, Simon thought of his hidden power to defeat the rebels, so he reluctantly stepped forward.

"I also brought fifty cows and twenty thousand gold coins as compensation for the unfair treatment you received in Maple Leaf Fortress. I hope to restore normal diplomatic relations and non-aggression."

Stingy, too stingy, this guy Maple Leaf Territory makes a fortune every day, but he only gave out bits and pieces of garbage as compensation.

"The previous trade agreement is abolished." Field added, "With an additional 100,000 gold coins, Maple Leaf Territory and Night Territory will still be an unbreakable brotherly country."

"Of course, I will still investigate this matter, and I will not let my soldiers sacrifice in vain."

Now that my own military strength has been damaged, the other side's military strength has increased, which is not suitable for large-scale military operations.

Blackmail something first, and then settle accounts with this guy later.

"At most 50,000." Simon's heart was bleeding, "I provided a large amount of supplies to the noble coalition, and I really have no money."

"Did you provide it for nothing?" Field raised his eyelids, "A total of 100,000 gold coins, everyone will still make money in future trade, Maple Leaf Territory is the closest commercial city to Night Territory."

"Hiss~" Simon was silent.

"Don't make a fool of yourself at this time." Simon's Chosen One, Furni, shook her head. "We all misjudged him. He is not as weak as we expected. Field is very likely to have a third-level Chosen One. Maple Leaf City, as a commercial city, should not set up a strong enemy."

Once the war breaks out, the losses to the commercial city are incalculable.

"Okay, I agree. Let's trade normally." Simon gritted his teeth in anger.

Every time Night Territory purchases supplies, tens of thousands of gold coins flow out. No one will give up this piece of cake.

After sending a diplomatic adviser to the fortress, Simon and Field signed a compensation treaty and left with resentment in their hearts.

"Great!"

Ashina jumped up happily: "There will be milk to drink in the future!"

"Do you like to drink milk? I haven't heard you mention it before." Field patted Ashina's wolf ears lovingly.

"The territory was too miserable before, I was afraid that I would make the lord drink himself out of money, hehe, but if I raise cows at home, I can drink milk." Ashina pulled her skirt embarrassedly, and she suddenly tilted her head in confusion, "Hey, why do you always sneak a glance at Miss Tisifa every time you talk about milk? She is not a cow sub-human."

"Hey?" Tisifa blushed to her neck and covered her heart, "Little, little greedy cat."

"Ahem."

"What the hell, Ashina, check the supplies first and make sure there is no problem before pulling them back." Field was embarrassed and quickly changed the subject, "If there are cows, the ranch will also be expanded, and alfalfa will be planted on a large scale."

Ashina narrowed her eyes: "Suspicious~"

"Tisifa, after the slaves are bought back, you and I will escort them back to the territory." Field urged, driving the two funny people away, "Let's take action."

As the chosen one of the Holy Light, Tisifa can easily dispel the gray fog and save transportation costs.

Field was full of confidence: "Build the territory vigorously."

On the other hand, the remote town of Ovi in ​​Rick Province, because it was not occupied and destroyed by the Shadow World Sect, ushered in an economic shortcoming.Temporary prosperity. The originally deserted city is now full of noise and hawking.

A large number of refugees poured into the city, and the allied soldiers who had not yet returned home also spent lavishly in the city.

"One, two, three, four..."

Enke, the ten-man leader of the first army led by Ye Mu, was carefully counting the number of slaves.

"No mistake, three hundred humans, fifty subhumans." The slave trader rubbed his hands together and interrupted, "Most of them are refugees, they sell their children when they have no food to eat."

"Don't interrupt, there are thirty people missing."

After Enko counted the two rows horizontally and vertically, he cursed and drew the long sword from his waist: "You even dare to steal our things in the Night Territory, I think you are tired of living, these slaves are the private property of our barons, you are swallowing up the nobles' things!"

"Ah? You, how do you know."

The merchant was confused: "You only counted two rows."

"Isn't it enough? If your brain that has been bitten by poisonous snakes can't understand." Enko snorted coldly, "We have plenty of time, I can point them out to you one by one, greedy bastard."

"It's amazing, this is the first time I see a big-headed soldier scolding a merchant for being brainless."

"Are there really thirty people missing?"

"I count, one, two, five...where am I counting."

The onlookers pointed and talked.

This scene attracted Ivoni, who was traveling around the empire. He counted it himself and found that it was just as the soldier said. He had never seen an ordinary soldier who could count. Only well-educated nobles, scholars and the like could learn knowledge.

Seeing that he was about to be exposed, the merchant immediately took out ten silver coins and begged for mercy: "I made a mistake. I will make up the difference immediately. In addition, these silver coins will treat the soldiers to drinks."

"Pick a strong slave to make up the difference for me."

Enko was very proud and laughed loudly. He accepted the silver coins without hesitation.

"Hello, sir, how did you calculate so quickly?" Ivoni asked curiously.

"Simple, line up ten people in a row, point out the row and then multiply." Enko waved his hand indifferently, and then said proudly, "It's very basic. In the Night Territory, no soldier will not understand this."
