Chapter 25 The Big One is Coming
“Hot Family?”
Away from the Goblin Farmhouse Elma and the others don’t know that the two city-states of Silver City and Victoria have been shaken by the challenge letter in their hands.
Of course, Zhou Li must know that the thief was bought by him, and he sent the flyers in the middle of the night.
But they knew that this person called the Hod family had eight lifetime’s bloody bad luck.
“You said that this family is not for profit, but to challenge you because of the virtues of the Knight?”
Elma sat on the chair and looked towards Zhou Li in disbelief: “You’re not joking, it’s too strange…”
“Xode…” A Zi frowned at the side, and said slowly after a moment of thought : “I seem to have an impression of this family.”
“Their next patriarch seems to be called Don Quixote. I met her last time I went to Silver City to trade. I think she is only twenty-two years old. I entered Baiyin and inquired about her curiously. Later, someone told me that the Joté family had almost become a joke and legend in the noble world, and few people mentioned it, even if it was mentioned, it would be used as a negative case to teach the next generation. “
A Ziyu tapped the wooden table with her finger, and her long purple hair was draped softly behind her like a beautiful silk. “However, in the mercenary group of the commoners and Silver City, the Hod family’s The reputation is surprisingly good. Even the gang of sewers in the black alley praise them, and the rare ones will avoid all business related to the Hode family.”
“So, if it is this family If so…” A Zi tilted her head and said somewhat uncertainly: “It seems… it is really possible to challenge Zhou Li for honor and justice.”
After listening to A Zi’s words, Elma’s face turned pale. The expression is even more strange. Although she is kind-hearted and does not object to Zhou Li’s promotion of herself by means of despicable but not degrading means, this image of the Knight family in fairy tales is too fair. But it is now clear that the family has fallen into the trap set by Zhou Li. According to Zhou Li’s habits, the fate of this family…
Elma pursed her lower lip slightly, coughed firmly in her eyes, and then she looked towards Zhou Li and asked with a serious expression: “Zhou Li, you Tell me, did you let the Hod family challenge you?”
“Almost.”
Zhou Li lightly sighed listening to the conversation between the two, then sat up straight , said seriously: “The challenge of the Hete family is indeed related to me.”
“Throw a page of hero exclusive near the Hete family’s territory, and inadvertently mail them a piece of hero lying in gold. The magic photos in the coin pile, get some evidence of hero’s unwillingness to make progress. These things are enough to make this group of Knights with only one string in their heads sleep at night and worry about the future of mankind.”
“Ah , no wonder.”
Azi suddenly realized that when she was preparing the first batch of gold coins to be sent to the Goblin tribe, Zhou Li once approached her, hoping to exchange half of the gold lings, and also It is the “banknote” representing ten gold coins. Although she had some doubts, she didn’t think much about it. She hired a carriage and a mercenary unit to deliver a thousand gold coins to Zhou Li, as well as a magic video equipment he designated to buy.
“You know them very well.”
Azi didn’t take seriously the matter of Zhou Li’s trapping of the Hete family. For her, if the Kengxote family can develop the goblin tribe, she would be more than happy. After all, she is just a businessman. For A Zi, there is only interest in the businessman’s world, and the so-called virtue can also be clearly marked.
But Elma didn’t think so. For her, cheating and entrapment of a righteous Knight family was an insurmountable threshold and a barb of conscience. Elma faced Zhou Li and opened her mouth. Just as she was about to say something, Zhou Li suddenly extended the hand, interrupting her words. He looked at Elma and said indifferently:
“But, I’m not trying to hurt them.”
“On the contrary, I’m saving her.”
“Oh roar.”
Azi made an inexplicable voice from the side, while Elma’s face was full of doubts.
“Is that the rumor?” Azi turned the wooden cup in his hand on the table, and explained to Elma, who was beside him: “The Hod family has not paid land tax for six consecutive years, nor has it Any noble contribution. If they do this this year, the Hod family will be reclaimed the noble name and their domain.”
“But what does this have to do with Zhou Li?” To Mag Elma, who was completely uninterested in the aristocratic system of the Southern Kingdom, was a little confused, when Zhou Li on the side spoke up.
“Hero can have a squire family.” Zhou Li coughed, and then continued: “The squire family is a subordinate of hero, independent of the major kingdoms, and the names of territories and nobles are protected by the Twelve Churches. .”
“Huh?”
Elma understood what Zhou Li meant, she stood up, and asked Zhou Li cheerfully: “You want to take the Hod family to become you Are you a squire?”
“Ang, that’s right.”
Why did Zhou Li nod, but Elma asked again, “Then you have to go in this… roundabout way. Charge them? Can’t you tell them directly?”
“If it’s other nobles, of course.” At this moment, A Zi raised her eyebrows and explained to Elma: “But yes It’s not feasible for the Hod family to do this.”
“If I were to write a letter directly, with the hero badge engraved in it, and tell the Hod family that I would take you as my squires. No one will dare to collect your territory and names in the future, guess what they will say?”
Looking at Elma with some clear comprehension, Zhou Li smiled and said the answer.
“We do not pay taxes, nor do we have any noble contributions. We deserve the punishment, and while you are grateful for your help, we must be held accountable for the laws of this country.”
“So, I have to set up a set and make them willing to be my squires.”
“Oh~~” Elma nodded, sitting back in the chair, rubbing herself a little Stiff cheeks, no more doubts.
“What about the plan?” A Zi faced Zhou Li and said with great interest: “Mr. Zhou Li should not just ask me to talk about this, right? If there is a need for Zisha in the plan The Chamber of Commerce helps me, and I’m available at any time.”
Although she doesn’t care about virtue, if there is a group of powerful professionals who don’t have the odd XP and temperament of the nobles, it will Good for Brin’s Farmhouse and Purple Yarn Chamber of Commerce. So, she was more than happy to help in this matter.
“Plan?”
The appearance of the two words made Zhou Li’s face show a very familiar smile from Elma.
Smiles like this are bound to have the smiles of several extremely unlucky ones.
