Even Woolley didn't expect that Naru was not done yet—after walking around the town twice the next day, he actually asked Woolley to choose a place in the town to build a large salt warehouse.

And it was brought up when Woolley feasted him, and in addition to Tours, there were also Baker and Gruul and a few of the attendants.

"Although there is little rain in this area of Salt Marsh Town, it is still necessary to do rain prevention seriously, this is the first thing, and the second is that the salt warehouse is built in the town to be easier to transport and safer, and you have spent so much effort to make the town's defense line so good, you should also let it play a role. Naru said as he took the glass.

"Naru Yandu, I may think about your words, but I personally think that I must first do not disturb the people. Woolley frowned and said, the layout of the houses in the town is already compact, where is there a ready-made vacant land to build a large salt warehouse, do you really want to demolish some of the houses?"

"Governor Woolley, I understand what you mean, let me remind you, you don't need to move the townspeople's houses, the empty land in the training ground is just right." Naru said.

Woolley's face suddenly straightened, the training ground was indeed the largest open space in the town, and there was still a little left to accommodate the gathering of the townspeople, but it was not only the gathering area of the townspeople and the training ground of the People's Army, but also the place where the townspeople went in their leisure time, especially the children, they always seemed to find happiness there, and every time Woolley passed by and heard the laughter wafting in the air, he would feel very comfortable.

Seeing this, Guru on the side frowned and asked, "Naru Salt Governor, I want to take the liberty of asking, where will the cost of building the salt warehouse come from?" Guru had only been the treasurer of Salt Marsh Town for a few days, and his money was already tight, if it wasn't for Woolley saying that he couldn't pay for it himself, he would have almost paid out of his own pocket several times. However, he didn't really want to ask where the money for the salt warehouse came from, but to change the subject, and distract Woolley by the way, because in the past few days, he had noticed that the frequency of Woolley's anger had increased.

"Naturally, it is paid from half of the annual interception of the salt works. Naru replied.

Beck subconsciously looked at Woolley.

Woolley couldn't help laughing when he heard this, not to mention that half of the interception actually had nothing to do with him, the consul, if he really nodded and agreed to build the salt warehouse, his plans would have to be delayed for at least many days before they could be completed, think about it, Tours and the people around and behind him had already been eyeing each other, and they would definitely use the reason for building a salt warehouse in the town to take away the manpower, materials and ...... of the canal protection project

Hmph, it's okay to pay a fine that I can't afford to pay, and now I still want to sabotage my plan and get things done, if I show you mercy again, won't your tail have to be cocked to the sky?

Naru frowned, and said in his heart, why did this kid suddenly ask this, isn't there something bad

in it?" "I also heard that during your time in the Second Legion, you have made many military achievements, and you are the pride of the Second Legion?" Woolley asked again.

Naru couldn't help but show a hint of triumph, he had always regarded this past as the most glorious moment of his life.

Despite his smugness, Naru didn't want to appear unhumble in front of people, so he cleared his throat and replied, "Almost." "

Well, then, I would like to ask you one thing, since the two armies are deadlocked, and neither is evenly matched and neither can win in one fell swoop, then, in this case, if there is more time left, should we give priority to building fortifications?" asked Woolley.

Naru was stunned, Wu Lai's question is easy to answer and difficult to answer, easy to answer, because you only need to answer a "yes" word, and it is difficult to answer, because Naru knows that if he nods and answers "yes", Wu Lai will definitely talk about the canal protection line in Salt Marsh Town, but he can't answer no, because it will attract Wu Lai's refutation and questioning - as long as anyone who knows a little about military affairs will know what to do in that situation, if you don't even know this, how those military exploits were established.

Hmph, this is a trap for me. Naru hesitated for a moment and nodded slowly, but he was a little unhappy in his heart, so he added: "This is the case most of the time, but it has to be considered comprehensively, combined with the actual local situation at that time, such as topography, climate change, etc.

"Okay, great. Woolley clapped with a smile, and as soon as he took the lead, Gruul, Baker, and the servants naturally applauded as well.

Naru shook his head with a wry smile, waved his hand, and said in his heart that this guy should not applaud maybe I can live in peace, this lead in applauding, I'm afraid it won't bring anything good.

"Thank you for the reminder, I decided to repair the defense line and the defensive gatehouse first, and then choose the place to repair this salt warehouse. Woolley glanced at it, "The duties of the Construction Bureau immediately made a record, and it was specifically noted that the Naru Salt Governor participated in the discussion and put forward valuable suggestions, so that in the future, when Connor was rewarded for his meritorious deeds, the merits of the Naru Salt Governor would not be buried." The

service of the Construction Bureau immediately agreed, Nalu just frowned, then heard the words of meritorious deeds, and after thinking about it, he didn't say anything more, let the salt marsh town build a salt warehouse is Job's special instructions, once it is built, it will inevitably consume a lot of manpower and material resources in the salt marsh town and add trouble to Woolley, but at the moment Woolley is unwilling, and he doesn't need to be reluctant, anyway, Job's words have been done, and the rest of the part is not something that he can control, and there may be a turn in the future。

Naru was silent, but Wu Lai didn't plan to let this matter go gently, this guy in front of him held his breath for two days in a row, and it was not Wu Lai's style to be angry, not to mention the domineering president style in his previous memory, even in this world, he couldn't change this temperament.

When the attendance record was completed, Woolley took it and glanced at it twice, then slapped it lightly on the table, and his gaze moved to Naru.

"Naru Yandu, I have another thing I want to ask, with your eyes, you can naturally see that the canal around the town is a line of defense, and you must also know that the bandits around the town are watching, once the defense line is completed, the security level of the town will be greatly improved, plus the three defensive gatehouses and mobile posts, it is enough to make the bandit group of about two hundred people not enter, then ......" Wu Lai's brows suddenly frowned, "Tell me, who asked you to ask me to build a salt warehouse at this time?"

Naru's brows also furrowed, this is another difficult question to answer, if no one answers, then this person who deliberately does things will become himself, and then, Woolley will take advantage of the victory to pursue and question himself what his intentions are, if he tells him the truth directly, not to mention that it is a shameless betrayal and betrayal, he will not be able to end up in any way anyway.

Naru frowned and was silent, Woolley waited for a moment, and then slapped the table very simply, until the plate and wine glasses on the table clanked: "Naru Salt Governor, I am also the consul of this salt marsh town, in detail, I am slightly higher than you, the salt governor of Lunwinton, you come to me as the inspector of salt marsh town to pick thorns, I will welcome you with delicious food and drink, you will fine me 2,700 gold coins in salt marsh town when you touch your mouth, have I asked you for a word?"

"Forget the fine, I have the right to treat you out of public interest, but what is the matter with building the salt warehouse? I will not repeat the superfluous words, and now, I can not even ask you to answer my previous question. Wu Lai stood up slowly, "But those who know me know that if you want to find my fault, you can show your strength, if not, you will be able to hide away from me in the future." "

You ......" Naru was angry, Woolley's words just now were undoubtedly harsh, making him unspeakably awkward.

"What am I?" Woolly smiled coldly, and pointed at Naru with his hand, "Naru, you used to be a brave warrior, I now ask for a duel with you, let's talk with our fists, you win, let alone build a salt warehouse, you just want me to tear down the whole town, I will do it right, and I will do it immediately, I won, and I will only need a lottery - that is, when you see me in the future, stay out of the way, don't let me see you, do you dare?"

Seeing this, Baker quickly stood up and persuaded, "Let's sit down and drink, drink, and talk slowly."

Guru turned his head away, took out a handkerchief and pretended to wipe his mouth to hide his smile, he has been with Woolley for so long, he naturally understands Woolley's combat effectiveness, not to mention that Woolley never acts rashly, and suddenly stood up and argued with Naru at this time, of course he had his own intentions.

To put it bluntly, Gruul wasn't worried at all that Woolley would suffer.

was suddenly sung by Wu Lai, Nalu's face suddenly couldn't hold back, and he wanted to agree immediately, but although he had been brave before, he was already in his early fifties at this time, and if he really wanted to fight, he might not be the opponent of the kid in front of him, but if he just admitted it, he would inevitably lose face.

After some thought, Naru slowly stood up.

Baker hurriedly tugged at his sleeve: "Lord Naru, you ......

" "Let go of me." After glaring at Baker, Naru looked at Woolley, "Woolly Grindor, you and I are both officials of Lenwinton, what we think about should be how to govern the land, live up to the trust of the Council of Nobles, be worthy of your citizenship, and live up to the hard work of your ancestors, what do you look like now? Are you a scoundrel on the streets? Do you want the townsfolk of Salt Marsh to see your jokes? Do you want the Council of Nobles of Lenvington to relish your impulses for a long time?".

After a series of questions, Naru was actually reminding Woolly to stop, he guessed that Woolley was just impulsive, and he hoped that his mention could calm down this kid and retract this stupid idea, and even, he had calculated that he might as well quietly give Woolley a little kind advice for a while.

But Woolley didn't buy it at all, his neck was stalked, and he asked with a disdainful expression: "Naru Yandu, don't you dare, right? Is your experience in the Second Legion bragged

?" "Bang!" Naru slapped the table hard, only startling the tavern owner who was already hiding in the corner.

"Woolly Grindor, come, who's afraid of you!" Naru snapped, shoving Baker as he tried to drag him to sit down again.

"Okay, close the door, clear the tables and chairs!" Woolley shouted as he began to roll up his sleeves.

Guru couldn't help but roll his eyes, got up and stepped aside ......

After a few moments, the door to the tavern was pushed open, and Woolley walked out with his chin clutched, followed by Gruul.

"Woolley, do you hurt?" asked Gruul with a concerned expression.

"Can it not hurt? Don't look at that old boy's age, the strength of that fist is really unusual, hiss, it will definitely be swollen in a while. Woolley grinned as he replied, gasping for a hard punch from Naru.

"You too, why did you suddenly remember to fight?" asked Guru, frowning.

"If you don't fight, you can't do it. Wu Lai said as he walked in the direction of the official residence, "Originally, I was going to communicate with them, but this group of people was too much, I repeatedly tolerated it, and they pressed again and again, and the most helpless thing for me is that they are the ones who make the rules of the game, and they can adjust the rules according to the situation on my side at any time, and it is difficult to play how to play, this fine of 2,700 gold coins is a lesson, just at this moment, the two-year appropriation of Salt Marsh Town has been removed, you say, without this money, if you don't advance money, can we still do it?"

"Naturally, I can't do it anymore. Gruul replied.

"So, I'm just going to find a reason to play a ruthless game for them, today is the first time, whoever dares to come to Salt Marsh Town in the future to find fault with five people and six people, I'll use my fists, if I fight two more times, I guess they won't dare to act rashly, at least, the people who were sent have to weigh and weigh how many punches they can withstand me. "

Violence is also a solution. Gruul nodded and said, "You can't hide the fight anyway, I plan to find those few self-serving servants at night, and tomorrow I will publicize the matter of your fight, just say that you refused to carry out the demolition of the house so the conflict with Naru

, how about it?" "This is okay, but it can be more direct, don't talk about the conflict so tactfully, just say that Archon Woolley is throwing his fist to defend Salt Marsh Town, how about it?" Woolley just smiled halfway, and couldn't help but restrain his smile, no way, his jaw hurts.

In the tavern, the tavern owner was still cowering in the corner in fear, the servants were scattered and standing, looking at each other, and Baker squatted beside Naru with a sad face, saying that you don't look like a character with great achievements in the Second Legion, just saw you punch and you were beaten down, even if you were lying down, and fainted, do you say I should leave now or stay? Stay, you may be angry with me when you wake up, let's go, you must be annoyed that I may still think that I am in league with Woolly Green, alas, it really worries me......

When Wu Lai entered the door, the bruise and swelling on his chin startled Er, and he hurriedly put down the needle and thread to meet him: "Young master, what's wrong

with you?" "It's okay, it's okay, the swelling will go down tomorrow, you can get some water and I'll apply it in a while." Wu Lai waved his hand, "By the way, have you cleaned up everything for me?"

"It's done, young master." Elcrisp replied, "I'll go and fetch you water."

Woolley nodded, went straight to the window and sat down, and said to himself as he looked out the window at the increasingly hazy scenery, "Alas, these barbarian fellows, how do you think I could come to such a world?"

After a while, Gruul also walked in and handed a small notebook to Woolley: "This is what you want."

Wu Lai took it and flipped the two pages, and nodded his head with a smile: "Okay, it's still your work efficiency, now it's okay, they come to me to do something, I can fight back anyway, and do their thing......
