Bright Era

These gold coins were commissions Lin Qi paid to Aton.

Employing tens of thousands of mercenaries at a time requires a lot of work here. The employees of the mercenary union have to get busy, counting the number of mercenaries and personal information for Lin Qi, and even enrolling in their native place and their historical history. Employment records, select excellent and qualified mercenaries from them, and eliminate those scum with bad records.

This is an extremely complicated job, so Lin Qi paid a million gold coins as a commission. Although the price was higher, it was indeed worth the money. Because this was not a one-shot sale, Lin Qi still needed the mercenary guild to help deal with a lot of things in the later period. For example, sending the families of these mercenaries to Longshan territory requires the guild's efforts.

So the money is the money of President Aton and the money of the Mercenary Guild!

In the lobby of the Mercenary Guild, I want to take advantage of the guild! Well, President Aton is broad-minded and generous, he doesn't care about the loss of these two or three gold coins-in this way, it is really a ghost! This year, but two or three gold coins can buy a life!

President Aton’s eyes were red, and he swung his long sword fiercely, and shouted in a vengeful voice: "Who dares to touch a copper of the guild, the mercenary guild will chase him all over the continent! Damn, great God of mercenaries, someone dares to move your gold coins on your territory!"

Those mercenary captains stared at Graham as fiercely and fiercely. This stingy, mean, fat man with a vicious atmosphere all over his body, they have deeply remembered this in the past few years, which is disgusting. Fat face.

Slade squeezed the sacrificial artifact in his hand, turned his head to look at Lin Qi, and said in a deep voice, "Master Patriarch, if you are willing to pay a copper and solve all the legal problems for me, A copper, I will kill him for you!"

Barba sighed heavily, and he said grimly: "A bronzer? Slade, you shameless fellow! Well, if Patriarch can wipe my **** with half a piece of straw, I can help Patriarch. He! This guy, he is worthless! It's just that he is a noble, although he is a trash noble, but he is a noble after all!"

The head of the Demon Fury Mercenary Corps, a silver-haired old lady who is over 80 years old said coldly: "Don’t be saucy, as long as the Patriarch can prevent the official from investigating the death of this **** fat pig, there are many here. People are happy to kill him for free!"

Glancing hard at Graham, the old silver-haired woman sneered: "Everyone has a lot of relatives and friends. Have you been cheated by this fat man?"

The many heads of mercenaries present and the elite mercenaries they brought stepped forward at the same time. They stared at Graham as if a group of hungry wolves had taken a fancy to a fat and tender little pig. Chewed him with his belt bones and swallowed it in, and then turned him into feces at the fastest speed and took it to the fattening field.

Graum took a few steps back with an ugly face, and he screamed: "God, Vias is a place with laws! You dare to move one of my hair. What is the crime of assaulting a nobleman? You should know! Hell, if you dare to kill a nobleman, then the nobles on the entire continent will be your enemy!"

Lin Qi immediately stepped forward. He smiled and bowed to Graham, and said manly: "Sorry, this certainly does not include me. If someone kills you, then I will help him solve all the legal issues. No one will hold anyone accountable for your death!"

Graham looked at Lin Qi bitterly, and he said word by word: "Your name!"

Lin Qi took a deep look at Graham, and he said solemnly: "The Longshan family, Turing Andelm Longshan, you can call me Lord Turing! Little...small, insignificant. Baron Graham!"

He lit a cigar, took a slow puff of thick smoke, and then slowly spit the smoke on Graham's face, Lin Qi asked softly: "Can you tell me, are you a new nobleman?" Aha, is your family history more than twenty years?"

Shrugging his shoulders, Lin Qi turned and smiled at the mercenary captains present: "Nobles, there are also many kinds of nobles, isn't it?"

The head of the mercenary regiment laughed knowingly. As Lin Qi said, even aristocrats, there are many types of aristocrats in the Western mainland.

One is the blood nobles. These families have been passed down from the dark period. The family history is at least more than a thousand years. The ancestors of the family are the kings of various city states, or the big and small nobles and heroic knights under the kings. The ancient blood nobles enjoy a high reputation in the Western Continent. Even if they are the smallest knights, as long as his family is handed down from the dark ages, then their people can stand tall in the upper class without bowing their heads to anyone. .

There is also the glorious nobles, these are the nobles who have created the power of large and small kingdoms after the dark period. The history of these nobles may not be as long as the blood nobles, but they are often related to the blood nobles, and they are extremely capable, powerful, and very strong families.

For example, the current royal family of the Gaul Empire, the royal family of the Caesar Empire and so on.

Just like the Caesar royal family, their surname is Andelm, they have the same roots as the Longshan family, and they are both inherited from the blood family of the dark history. Maybe the Caesars are just a trivial branch of the great blood nobles, but when this branch establishes an empire, then they can be called glorious nobles!

Glory nobles rank second only to blood nobles in the circle of nobles, and in many cases can even be on par with blood nobles.

Under the glorious nobles, there are ordinary military nobles and meritorious nobles!

The nobles who passed on for more than two hundred years, started because of wars, or were admired because of serving emperors and kings, and finally received nobles are sergeant nobles and meritorious nobles. Just like the lion general Marquis Stern that Lin Qi knew of the Caesar Empire, he was a complete military nobleman.

These nobles often hold the real power of a country and have the most practical influence on the mainland.

And the so-called new nobility. . . Well, you can also call it a gold coin noble! This kind of aristocracy, because of the emergence of the Vias Commercial Federation, has spread in large numbers throughout the Western Continent. Such aristocrats are scornfully called upstarts, hillbillies, worms who want to climb up over their own resources, etc. in the aristocratic circle. . .

Such aristocrats often started for only 20 or 30 years, and their words, deeds, and every move are disgusting. In the circle of aristocrats, they are rejected by others. Many big men and real aristocrats have never been in the same room with the new aristocrat Under the eaves.

But with the economic recovery of the mainland and the development of commerce in various countries, there are more and more new nobles like this. Not only the Vias Commercial Federation, but also in many other countries, countless merchant families came to Vias to purchase one or a few nobles to show off triumphantly.

Therefore, although the new aristocrats were despised by others, they also possessed enormous financial power and resources. Compared with ordinary people, they were also part of the superior ruling class. Although the core executives of this ruling class do not admit this, ordinary people think so!

Therefore, Lin Qi can spit cigar smoke on Graham's face contemptuously and ask him contemptuously whether he is a new nobleman!

Even if Lin Qi’s title was bought, but what he bought was the identity of the Earl of Longshan, then he belonged to the most noble blood nobles and part of the glorious nobles on the mainland, his identity and Graham, there is The difference is far away.

"Answer my question, Mr. Graham!" Lin Qi said slowly: "I, as the head of the ancient and noble Longshan family, I am publishing my commission here in the mercenary union! And you, a new nobleman, A nouveau riche who relies on gold coins in exchange for an unknown baronial title, who gave you the courage to make you come here at this time?"

Graham's face was purple with anger, he stared at Lin Qi firmly, and then slowly, slowly, and very hard to bow to Lin Qi.

A flattering smile was forced out of his fat face, and Graham said in a low voice: "Your Honorable Earl, please forgive me for my careless offense. Of course, I apologize for what I said and did! But like you Noble people, surely you are not being rude to me?"

Graham smiled humblely, his small eyes blinked, and from time to time an unexplained cold light flashed through his eyes.

Lin Qi smiled and nodded. He spread his hands and let out a thick smoke slowly: "Of course, I don't care! Noble aristocrat like me, why should I care about you? Well, you can leave. !"

Nodding fiercely on Graham's nose, Lin Qi sternly shouted: "Get out at your fastest speed!"

Graham turned and left without saying a word. He went faster and faster, and finally almost ran away.

Lin Qi showed a ferocious smile, he grabbed it casually, pulled out a fist-sized stone from the ground, and then slammed it at Graham. With a weird sound, the stone hit the fat heart of Graum, and a faint magical light flashed over him. The huge impact of the stone smashed Graum seven or eight meters away, but It didn't really hurt him.

Immunity to long-range weapons, the magic equipment on Graham rescued him.

After snorting a few times, Graham jumped up without looking back, and then fled away embarrassingly with the four servants at the fastest speed.

Today, in the mission release hall of the Mercenary Guild, all of Grum's face was stamped on the ground by Lin Qi. But he didn't dare to look up, he didn't dare to resist, even if he was already angry, but he still didn't dare to complain.

A baron bought with money, against a nobleman like Earl Longshan, Graham really didn't have the guts.

He just gasped bitterly and left here as quickly as possible. (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to come to the starting point (qidian.com) to vote for recommendations and monthly tickets. Your support is my biggest motivation.)
