King

Chapter 111 Double Standards

After gathering the men and horses of the three nearby brothers, a team of 500 people set off from the mountain leader and headed straight for Dadir City.

Looking at the murderous formation, you can tell that they are definitely not doing business in the past, but they look like they are going to cause trouble.

There is no way, what he does next will arouse hatred to a certain extent, and if he doesn't bring more people to protect him, he is very likely to be beaten by others.

They gathered together all the way, and by the time the team arrived at Dadir City, the total number of people had exceeded the two thousand mark. All the local nobles who could drop by along the way gathered together.

There is no such thing as a strong army and a strong horse, but it does reflect a certain degree of strength in numbers. Eating the Sith Baron was a joke, but the past demonstrations were real.

Thanks to Hudson's efforts, the military strength of the local nobles in the two counties surged in a short period of time.

Although it is not known how much the specific strength and combat effectiveness have increased, the number of troops has indeed increased. If the previous conflict happened again, it would at least cause more casualties to the nobles of the North.

It happened to be the off-season for farming. Except for a certain lord who was working hard to open up wasteland and his subjects were still busy, everyone else was idle.

One of the main purposes of this operation was to select the strongest serfs, pick up the most elite weapons, hold an armed parade to embolden them, and boost the morale of the local nobles.

"I welcome you all to come from afar. My baron has prepared a banquet. Please come with me to the banquet, all distinguished guests.

For those accompanying you, please follow the guidance of the soldiers and head to the camp in the south of the city to station. Dinner is also prepared there for everyone to enjoy. "

It can be seen from the old man's trembling eyebrows that although he knew that there would be many people coming this time, he obviously did not expect that the local nobles would bring so many people.

Isn't it said that the southern aristocrats are the most particular about appearance? Even if they want to cause trouble, they should restrain themselves a little bit. Why don't you act according to common sense this time?

There was no time to think too much. The moment they stopped at the city gate, several more teams came from behind, as if they had made an appointment.

There were no surprises. Everyone came with a large group of people. It seemed that if there were too few people, it would appear that they were not in front of them.

After repeating what he just said, it was too late to lead everyone away, and more teams arrived one after another.

Don't doubt it anymore, now the old man can be sure that these local nobles arrived together at the appointed time.

It's useless to know. People have received invitations to attend the event. You can't just turn people away, right?

If you want to become a business center, you must have strong tolerance. If you kick guests out of the door for no reason, your reputation will be bad.

The nobles in twos and threes greeted each other and turned a deaf ear to the old man's words, as if they regarded him as nothing. The old man was furious, but his reason kept him calm.

"Where is your Sith Baron? With so many of us coming from afar, shouldn't his master come out to greet us?"

Hudson's voice broke the atmosphere.

Frankly speaking, Hudson has never bothered to do this kind of deliberate trouble-making and hatred.

It's just that people are in the arena and can't help themselves. Although the local nobles present gathered together and talked and laughed, it seemed that everyone was united. If they really wanted to confront the Sith Baron, few of them would have the courage.

The fact that Hudson can easily become the team leader is enough to illustrate everyone's position.

There is no problem in following the flag-waving and helping out when the wind is favorable. It would be too embarrassing for them to come forward and confront the Sith Baron.

Even if there was any arrogance in his heart, it was almost exhausted in the previous conflicts. It can be said that the northern Xinjiang nobles' previous strong establishment of authority was very successful.

The fuss now is actually just a bluff, just to cheer myself up.

"Baron Hudson, you are still so impatient! It's just that I came a little late, but I don't mean to disrespect everyone.

Mainly because there are so many guests here today, I am really busy, so I am a little late, so please forgive me.

Now, please, all distinguished guests, come sit down with me! "

If you carry a gun and a stick, the situation will become even more embarrassing. It can be seen that this Sith Baron is not a lord who swallows his anger. Even if it is his home stadium, he does not save any face for the "guests".

A group of local nobles stopped and waited for Hudson's reaction, as if they were preparing to advance or retreat together.

"I know that the Sith Baron is very heroic and will not be rude on these details. Since the Sith Baron is ready, then we don't need to be polite and just do as you please!"

While talking, a huge team suddenly appeared in the sky. All kinds of orcs appeared, instantly attracting everyone's attention.

Fortunately, this is the southeastern province. If this scene happened in the north, everyone would have to think that the orc army was attacking the city.

"Baron Sith, am I not late? In order to cheer you up, I have brought all the best slaves here, and I am going to use the precious land to sell them at a good price."

Baron Kettle's words instantly made everyone laugh. As far as the eye can see, there are only trash slaves like ratmen, pigs, goblins, etc., but they actually call them "the best".

Because of peddling slaves, this humble baron has recently become "famous" among the local nobles.

It's just that it's not a good reputation, but he was dubbed "the stupidest slave trader". I despise it, but it doesn’t affect everyone’s enjoyment of the joke.

Listening to the laughter of everyone, Baron Sith finally suppressed his anger. No matter what, you can't get into trouble with your "little brother" in front of outsiders.

Although Baron Kettle has never considered him to be his younger brother, as the boss promoted by the nobles from the south to the northern Xinjiang, Baron Sith has already acquiesced that these people are his younger brothers.

"It's not too late. It would be great if you could come, Ketele. Since you are here, let's sit down together! Butler Faerun, arrange for people to build barracks in the west of the city to house these orc slaves."

As soon as he finished speaking, the Sith Baron turned around and walked to the front of the team, as if he was leading the way for everyone.

It was obvious that he was really pissed off this time. Baron Kettle's slaves were unsalable, and it was no secret among the aristocratic circles. Baron Sith had also heard about it.

Seeing the misfortune of the guy he had a problem with, he secretly rejoiced more than once. You know, just a little bit away, the title of "stupidest slave trader" fell on his head.

Fortunately, the experienced old butler stopped him in time and carefully analyzed the sales prospects of orc slaves for him. As expected, it was still unsaleable.

It's a pity that I escaped the first grade of junior high school and failed to escape the fifteenth grade. This trouble finally changed its way and fell on his head.

According to the original plan, a group of local nobles were placed in the south of the city, and the children of northern Xinjiang nobles were placed in the north of the city to separate the two sides to reduce conflicts.

The plan was very good, but now there was an extra group of slaves, and a new west side of the city had to be divided.

It's not a question of whether they can live there, but the status gap between slaves and nobles is too big. If they were forcibly placed together, the nobles who felt insulted would have to fall out with him on the spot.

If it was just this little trouble, he, the Sith Baron, would admit it. There are only a few hundred barracks on the left and right, and they are all lowly slaves anyway. If you just go around in a circle and deal with them, you won't waste a few pieces of wood.

Even if these guys were allowed to eat and drink for free for three days, they would lose tens of thousands of pounds of food at most, which the Sith Baron could afford.

Obviously, things can't be that simple. In the huge commodity exchange meeting, more than 20,000 slaves participated in the transaction, but not a single slave was traded. Just think about it and you will know how embarrassing the scene can be.

If the guests had publicized this hugely expensive event, it would have turned into a farce.

People who eat melons don't care why slaves are unsalable. They just take it for granted that the commercial market in Dadir City is not good. At that time, it will be "one mouth to spread rumors, and one's legs will be broken to refute the rumors."

I originally thought that the biggest trouble was caused by the local nobles headed by Hudson, but I didn't expect that the real trouble was being stabbed in the back by "my own family".

It’s hard to ask God, but it’s even harder to send Him away!

In front of all the local nobles, he could not refuse the entry of Baron Kettle's team. It is even more impossible to drive people away now.

With his thoughts on his mind, Sith was out of sorts throughout the banquet. After a few polite words, he used his discomfort as an excuse to exit the banquet hall.

"Master, the situation is not good! Judging from what Baron Kettle did, it seems that he came here deliberately. Maybe he really colluded with the local nobles and came here to cause damage on purpose.

After all, so many slaves fell into his hands. If it cannot be dealt with in time, Maple Leaf's finances will not be able to support it for long.

Even if the family behind him is willing to provide support, if he has to make a one-time investment to fill the hole of 40,000 to 50,000 gold coins, I am afraid that it will also arouse the opposition of many clan members.

Now the only ones who have the financial resources and need to eat these slaves are the local nobles.

Driven by interests, it is not impossible for Baron Kettle to choose to betray. This situation must be contained, otherwise the consequences will be unpredictable. "

Butler Feilun analyzed with a solemn expression.

With foreign enemies on the side and internal strife, for the Sith Baron, it is definitely a big event that is about to collapse.

For things like betrayal, the most fearful thing is that someone will set a precedent. Once Baron Kettle is won over by the local nobles, more nobles will definitely choose to defect.

Anyway, for most of the noble children from Northern Xinjiang who went south, the most important thing for them was to establish a foothold there and leave a way out for their family.

As for whether the Northern Xinjiang nobles or the local nobles will be in charge of the two counties in the future, it is actually insignificant in the face of survival.

As long as they take root in the local area for three generations and marry into the local nobles a few times, they will be considered one of their own.

Similar cases have happened long ago in history. The Koslow family also originated from the North, but now everyone regards them as local nobles.

A single tree cannot make a forest. If all the younger brothers defect, no matter how powerful the boss is, he will not be able to resist the general trend.

Not to mention fighting for the dominance of the two counties, if he can avoid being squeezed out from the local area, it is considered his method is great!

"I'm going to talk to Baron Kettle. If it doesn't work out, I'll think of a way to get everyone to pool together some money and lend it to him for emergencies.

As for this batch of slaves, they can help digest as much as they can!

If someone is pushed into a hurry, with this guy's style, he can really betray us as traitors. "

Baron Sith said coldly.

It seemed that he decided to help, but deep down he was already thinking about how to find an opportunity to take away the rat turd of Baron Kettle.

The one who is horizontal is afraid of being stunned, and the one who is stunned is afraid of losing his life.

The current Baron Keterai was forced to a dead end and started playing the game of breaking the pot. Either help him get through this, or he'll drag everyone with him to hell.

Anyway, the Sith Baron promised to help store the goods. If he couldn't get rid of the slaves in his hands, Catley could keep more than 20,000 slaves here and eat and drink for free.

Unless the Sith Baron can put down his previous plan and not build any commercial center, he will hand over the geographical advantages of Dadir City to others. Otherwise, he would have to deal with this hot potato.

The absence of a host in the banquet hall did not affect everyone's enthusiasm at all. Especially the songs and dances full of exotic customs attracted everyone's attention.

Many nobles even made requests to purchase foreign beauties in front of Baron Kettle. But in the end, everyone was scared back by Keterai's conditions.

You can buy foreign beauties, but the prerequisite is that you must package and subscribe to a certain number of orc slaves.

Everyone has learned this trick before, but Hudson previously included pots and pans and other daily necessities, so you won’t suffer too much if you buy it back.

But the orc slaves are different. We have no experience in raising this group of aliens. What if there is a slave riot and these noble nobles are killed?

Thanks to the kingdom's hundreds of years of demonizing propaganda against the orcs, in the deepest memories of many nobles' minds, the orcs are a group of super destructive maniacs and lunatics.

No matter how strong everyone's interest in foreign beauties is, they can't just pack up and buy a thousand troubles to go back just for one woman.

Compared to the gaffes of many of his colleagues, Hudson was much calmer. Isn't it just hot dancing? It's not like I haven't seen it before.

Although the group of exotic beauties on the stage were indeed moving, his reason told him that he must remain reserved now.

Not only Hudson, but also all the unmarried aristocratic children were trying to control their emotions.

Just because others can be crazy doesn't mean they can be crazy too. If you lose your composure during the banquet and fall into the eyes of a group of people who may be your future father-in-law, that will be a big loss.

With the reputation of being a womanizer, it is almost impossible to find an ideal marriage.

Most of the aristocratic children are restrained before marriage and then mess around after marriage. Including the group of aristocratic ladies are no exception, few of them have sex scandals before marriage.

If the couple's life is not harmonious after marriage and the husband's family is not strong enough, then it is easy for a green prairie to appear.

A lot of people are having fun, so couples can just play their own things without affecting anyone else. In some areas with an open atmosphere, you can even hold unobstructed meetings to have fun together.

Seeing an old guy walking onto the stage without any scruples and running to flirt with those foreign beauties, Hudson silently chose his side.

I can't stay any longer. After all, it's someone else's territory. If I accidentally get tricked and someone arranges an affair, it's hard to explain.

If anyone observes carefully, they will find that every time Hudson drinks or eats, he will move it near his sleeve.

For no other reason, I brought a master of poison identification with me. The mini version of the bear cub is printed on the clothes like a pattern. In fact, it is the cub that follows closely.

As its strength continues to grow, Bear Stearns has also unlocked many capabilities. Whether it is transformation or poison recognition, it is one of its talents.

As for the price, all the energy in Hudson's mysterious compass has been consumed. Now, one thousand gold coins of magic crystal must be purchased every month to replenish the energy of the compass, so that the daily practice of one person and one bear can be guaranteed.

Reason told him that this was just the beginning. With the absorptive capacity of bears with big stomachs, the demand for energy will be even greater in the future.

Fortunately, Hudson was smart enough to arrange for himself the identity of a magician in advance, and reasonably occupied the magic crystal exchange quotas of many relatives.

This wave is free, and no one will need it anyway, so just support the children of outstanding families. The quota was given to Hudson, but he still had to pay for the gold coins himself.

Unfortunately, Hudson never figured out the specific strength of the cub. Anyway, according to Bear Stearns himself, the nobles around him were not strong enough to be slapped by Uncle Bear.

The specific classification of strength levels is the product of human beings' refinement based on their own understanding and needs.

It's a pity that the Earth Bear clan never engages in boring stuff. They only have three stages: infancy, growth, and adulthood.

The strength span of each stage is also very different. Because according to the understanding of the Earth Bear, combat effectiveness can usually be judged by looking at the body shape.

Unfortunately, Cub Bear is obviously an anomaly. Although his strength is gradually rising and his natural talents are constantly being unlocked, from a physical point of view, he is still in his infancy.

If Bear Stearns didn't cover up and revealed his real body, I guess everyone who saw him would think he was an unweaned naughty child.

It is true that it has not been weaned. Honey + animal milk has always been its essential food. It has to drink a pot of almost the same volume as its main body every day.

It seems to be the lifeblood of a bear's life, and anyone who dares to wean it off its milk will be in a hurry. If this situation continues, it is estimated that Hudson will not see the bears weaned during his lifetime.

Reason told Hudson that it was time to find a way to make money. Just because you have to play opposite the Sith Baron, you can't neglect your essential work.
