After the Full Level of the Profession
Chapter 187
Hearing the Queen's words, a touch of complicated emotions flashed in the eyes of the twenty people. Although they knew it would be like this, it was still difficult to accept it when they heard others say this.
The nine people who decided to stay couldn't help but secretly rejoice that they made the right decision, and the eleven people who decided to go home first were also thinking: after returning home, immediately bring their wives, children and children, and move to the West Wind as soon as possible town. This world only Godfather will consider for us, only in Godfather's territory, we can have a real life.
"Okay, the matter is settled like this." Robb smiled at the twenty people: "It seems that you will stay in Xifeng Town for a few days, waiting for Miss Queen to send someone to bring the pass. "
Twenty people hurriedly greeted the body as a courtesy, and after a thousand thanks, they went to the rental house with Wangjiang feelings.
The next day, a manticore came to Westwind Town with a messenger sent by Her Majesty the Queen, along with the first batch of fifty special passes.
Holders of these passes are chartered through the passes of Crystal Canyon.
Robb handed out passes to the eleven who wanted to go home, and watched them head north with a 5,000-yard line of sight.
These people may come back, or they may never return, and no one can guarantee what kind of judgment they will make in the future.
However, it is indisputable that they are free, and the demonstration they have set is extremely powerful. They set a good example for the more than 3,000 people in prison and pointed out a new life path for them.
The more than 3,000 prisoners in Xifeng Prison suddenly became diligent, their work became more diligent, and their performance became better. Even the most troublesome thorns are now starting to become obedient and do things seriously and cooperatively.
All the prisoners of labor reform began to desperately strive for a commutation of their sentences and work hard towards a new life.
Ten days later, a diplomatic team led by a diplomat from the desert kingdom came to West Wind Town...
Chapter 260 Crude Oil
The diplomat sent by the desert kingdom is a middle-aged man in his forties. He has no armor on his body. He is wearing the traditional clothing of the desert kingdom, a black skirt. According to them, the name of this kind of clothing is. It's called "Kufeille".
His entourage was not wearing armor either, but only carried a few machetes, obviously just to prevent monsters such as goblins and ogres from attacking them, and had no intention of fighting the Kingdom of Gran.
Robb was in his church yard, sitting on his favorite stone chair, and warmly welcomed the diplomatic team who came to send money. Well, it's actually just sitting there and waiting for them to come to him.
He didn't even leave his butt off the stone chair, so of course all the things like standing up to greet him were omitted.
However, no one in the diplomatic team from the desert kingdom dared to be dissatisfied with him, nor dared to look down on this lazy guy, because he had already proved his greatness in the battle to defeat the Sphinx, making him When everyone in the desert kingdom heard the word "Robert", their faces changed.
The diplomat saluted respectfully in front of Robb: "Dear Mr. Robert, I would like to extend my sincerest greetings to you on behalf of the Desert Kingdom."
"It's easy to talk." Robb pointed to the opposite side of the stone table with a smile: "Sit!"
The diplomat sat down opposite the stone table, and then said solemnly: "Xiaguan came to Xifeng Town this time with the permission of Her Majesty the Queen of your country to redeem three important nobles in our country."
"Well, Miss Queen has already told me about this." Robb said with a smile: "The price has also been clearly written in the credentials, 1,000 gold coins for the commander-in-chief, 600 for the great shaman, and 600 for the Madara. , I have no objection, as long as I see the money, I will let it go."
The diplomat nodded: "Okay, I'll pay immediately."
He waved his hand, and a machete warrior dressed in "Kufeiye" came over with a small box.
This box is not big, and Robb can see at a glance that it is impossible to hold 2,200 gold coins.
When the diplomat opened the lid, there were no gold coins inside, only eight pieces of amber, three of which had bugs in the middle.
"Huh?" Robb said, "Didn't you agree to give money? What are you playing?"
The diplomat said a little embarrassedly: "The thing is this, the defeat of the Eastern Route Army this time made the Pharaoh very angry, disappointed with the performance of all the generals of the Eastern Route Army, and was unwilling to open the treasury to redeem people, let this Several noble families tried to redeem their own people. However, these three noble families could not collect more than 2,000 gold coins in a short period of time, so they rummaged through boxes and cabinets at home, and finally found these ambers. It is a precious treasure that is priceless, it should be able to..."
"You can be a ghost!" Robb interrupted him decisively: "It's just some resin dripped on the bugs, and then petrified into something, worth a ghost town, with this kind of appearance, only on a certain treasure. You can buy one for 20 yuan, and you want to fool me?"
The diplomats basically couldn't understand his messy words, what resin, petrochemical, a certain treasure, 20 yuan, but they heard a meaning, that is, Robb is not interested in amber at all.
The diplomat hurriedly said, "Mr. Robert, this is amber, a very valuable thing."
"It's worthless, useless garbage, it's almost fooling Xiaobai." Robb laughed: "With this kind of garbage, I want to replace my three big living people, unless I'm mentally retarded, I don't think this person needs to be replaced. , tear up the ticket and tear up the ticket."
The diplomat Khan said: "Tear up the votes! I'll think of a way. Well, since Mr. Robert doesn't like amber, I can only try to take out the gold coins... For the part that is not enough, look at this thing again. how."
He asked his men to take the amber down, and then brought a wooden barrel over.
This bucket is not big, only the size of an ordinary bucket, and it doesn't look like it can hold much.
However, as soon as it was placed on the stone table, Robb smelled a pungent smell in his nose. His eyes could not help but light up slightly, and he immediately thought of something very, very important, and it happened to be a lot of Something from the desert kingdom.
I saw the diplomat open the lid of the bucket, and then, a bucket of black, sticky liquid appeared in front of Robb.
Is it crude oil?
Robb was a little unsure. After all, in later generations, he had not seen crude oil with his own eyes, but only gasoline extracted from crude oil.
If he wasn't sure, he didn't talk nonsense, just put a smile on his face that seemed to have everything under control, squinted at the diplomat, and waited for him to explain to himself.
Sure enough, what the diplomat took out, of course, had to be explained. He pretended to be mysterious and introduced a good thing and said: "The name of this thing is called kerosene! Don't look at it's dark and ugly looking. It looks like it looks like, but it burns very powerfully. If it is used to make incendiary bombs, it can set a large ship on fire in a blink of an eye, and when it burns, it will produce highly poisonous, and the enemies who cannot be burned will also be poisoned to death. We don’t have enough gold coins. Part of it, can I use this kind of kerosene for it?"
Hearing what he said, Robb could be sure that it was really oil.
Awesome stuff!
Whether it is conventional technology or game technology, oil plays a pivotal role.
Although Robb doesn't know anything about chemical engineering, but in the "Dark Blade" game he has been playing, there is a professional skill called "engineering", which contains many petroleum-related engineering product.
Robb couldn't do those things before, but with oil, almost all oil-related products can be activated.
Robb's heart was overjoyed, but he didn't move on the surface, and even showed a look of contempt: "No matter how hard you blow, this black oil can only be used to light a fire. If I want to light a fire, I can use the fireball technique. ."
After speaking, Robb raised a finger, and his fingertips jumped into a fireball.
The moment he saw the flames lit up, the diplomat was taken aback, quickly picked up the oil drum on the table, and jumped back far away: "Mr. Robert, this thing can't touch the fire, it will blow us all up. fly."
Robb pretended not to understand: "Isn't that the equivalent of explosion? I can too!"
He pointed at the sky, and a big spark exploded with a "boom" in the air.
The diplomat was taken aback, someone like Robb who didn't need to chant a spell, could just use an explosive technique with one finger.
He couldn't help but feel a little sad in his heart: It's over, it seems that Mr. Robert is not interested in kerosene either. He neither wants amber nor kerosene. The three nobles feel that 2,200 gold coins are a bit painful, and they want me to try not to spend money. ?
Chapter 261 Give Me Two Thousand Barrels
The diplomat frowned. Actually, it's not that these nobles can't get 2,200 gold coins. It's just negotiating this matter. Everyone wants to strive for more benefits. To get rid of the other party with some messy things is to take a big advantage.
However, Robb was smarter than he thought, and neither amber nor kerosene could impress him. It seemed that he had to pay in the end.
He sighed and was about to say: Forget it, let's work hard to raise gold coins.
Unexpectedly, before these words were spoken, Robb grabbed ahead with an extra gracious expression: "I thought about it carefully, if your black oil can really be used for burning, it is much more useful than amber, At least I can use it to cook, lest my little maid keep making a fire. I shall make friends with your desert kingdom, throw out the olive branch of peace, and plant the seeds of friendship. I don't want a single gold coin from you, just You give me 2,000 barrels of this oil, pay attention, it's not this small bucket, it's the big bucket I use for bathing, 2,000 barrels! I will reluctantly return the three nobles to you. Those three are all Big man, it's worth 2,000 barrels of black oil that can only be used for burning, so it should be fine, right?"
Robb's frenzied quotations, and the three people exchanged 2,000 bath barrels of oil, felt a little unreasonable, and should be dragged to humane destruction.
But he still boldly quoted this price, because he could guess that people in this world must not know the preciousness of oil, nor can they make reasonable use of it. In the eyes of people in the desert kingdom, oil should only be a kind of The liquid that can be used to burn the poisonous fumes can only be used as a weapon, and nothing else can be done.
