Otherworld Management Manual

"Other World Management Manual ()"

...

Winter nights come very early.

The sky is getting dark, and in the snowstorm, a flash of orange light brings some warmth to this desolate land.

In the car, Erica was a little motion sick. Her face was flushed, sweat was dripping on her forehead, her whole body was limp and limp, and she was clinging to Zhang Feng, breathing lightly.

After all, the speed of the steam car is a bit fast, and people who don't often ride in the car must not be used to it.

But Zhang Feng found that although Erica was a little motion sick, but there was a little desire in her eyes, Zhang Feng said with some doubts:

"Erica, are you hungry?"

After all, it's been a while since I've been out, and Erica hasn't eaten anything, it's normal to be hungry.

"I'm hungry!"

Erica didn't dare to look directly into Zhang Feng's eyes, she was already a little dizzy from hunger, but Zhang Feng never mentioned the matter of eating, and as a weak woman, she couldn't speak easily.

Hearing Zhang Feng finally asked if she was hungry, Erica nodded quickly, regardless of her shyness.

"You have to eat when you're hungry. How would I know if you don't tell me. Fortunately, I asked, but you can drink some water before eating the staple food."

Zhang Feng smiled and brought up his hand, holding a handful of clear water.

Seeing the clear water in Zhang Feng's palm, Erica's eyes widened.

"Master~ Do you really want to drink this?"

This is a kind of drink that is difficult to describe. Although she has it, she has never drank it, and she doesn't know that she can drink it?

"Of course, I think you should like it, what do you think?"

Zhang Feng looked at her with a smile.

"It should, it should be..."

Erica felt that the heating system in the car was too strong, and she was so hot that her neck was pink.

She didn't really want to drink. Now she was very hungry and just wanted to eat, but seeing the expectant eyes of the master, Erica couldn't bear to refuse.

"very good."

Because Erica was a little motion sick and exhausted, she couldn't do it herself now, so Zhang Feng had no choice but to help. He dipped his fingers in some water and gently touched the corners of Erica's lips.

Erica had completely closed her eyes, she was too embarrassed to look directly at her gentle master.

The clear water was a little sour at the entrance, and Erica felt her whole body was heating up. The heating system in the steam car was too strong.

After finally drinking the pre-meal water, Erica couldn't bear it any longer, and buried her head in Zhang Feng's chest. Even if Zhang Feng called her, she didn't dare to look up.

"Now let's eat the staple food. I have some polished rice porridge here. If you don't say it, I will take it as your default!"

Erica said nothing.

How could she have the nerve to speak up about this kind of thing?

Zhang Feng saw that Erica was still in a state of motion sickness and had no strength, so Zhang Feng hugged her in his arms. The two were close together, feeling Zhang Feng's tenderness, Erica was nervous and happy at the same time.

She was nervous because this was the first time someone fed her polished rice porridge. She had no experience, so she was naturally very nervous.

Happiness is because this is Zhang Feng and her master personally fed her. Didn't she dare to think of this kind of treatment before? Maybe it only appeared in her dreams.

Now, the moment has finally come.

Perhaps sensing Erica's nervousness, Zhang Feng said with a smile:

"Don't be nervous, just drink a bowl of porridge, and you don't need to do it, I will feed you myself."

"I, I'm not nervous, this, this is my honor..."

Seeing that Erica was still a little stubborn, Zhang Feng smiled and didn't care. He moved gently, and handed the spoon to Erica's mouth while Erica was biting her lip and frowning.

"It's a little hot..."

The spoon is a bit big, and although Zhang Feng is already very gentle, Erica still feels a little uncomfortable.

"It's okay, just get used to it later, you won't have diarrhea if you eat at this temperature!"

Zhang Feng moved very slowly and patiently, but Erica kept frowning, and at a certain moment, a tear flowed from the corner of her eye.

For such a patient and good master,

She was moved to tears.

"Why are you crying? Did I feed too fast?"

Zhang Feng was about to take the spoon out of Erica's mouth. After all, eating too hard after being hungry for a long time was not good for the stomach.

Who knew that Erica was holding Zhang Feng's hand tightly.

"No! I'm hungry~ I'm so hungry!"

Hearing Erica's trembling tone and looking at her eager eyes, Zhang Feng, who was overflowing with sympathy, couldn't bear it anymore.

"Okay, I'll feed you slowly!"

Fearing that Erica would be hungry, Zhang Feng speeded up the feeding, and soon filled Erica up.

"tasty?"

"Good drink……"

Faced with such a gentle Zhang Feng, Erica dare not look directly at him.

But maybe Zhang Feng's actions were a little rough, some polished rice porridge spilled out and stuck to the corner of Erica's mouth.

Erica wanted to wipe her mouth clean, but the car drove a little too fast, she really had no strength, so she had to look at Zhang Feng pitifully.

Zhang Feng naturally understood what Erica meant. He took out a towel and gently wiped Erica clean. Apart from porridge, there were some red blood stains on it. It might be that Erica's gums were bleeding.

Zhang Feng was a little distressed, and gently hugged Erica.

Erica, who was full of food and drink, lay on Zhang Feng's body. She had never felt so happy.

After a long time, Zhang Feng saw that Erica's symptoms of motion sickness had eased a lot, so he whispered in her ear:

"Erica, are you hungry again?"

"I, I'm full..."

Thinking of Zhang Feng feeding her porridge so gently just now, Erica's eyes were a little shy.

"No, I said you're hungry when you're hungry!"

Zhang Feng spoke seriously.

"Ah I……"

Listening to Zhang Feng's unreasonable words, Erica seemed to understand something, and she said in a voice like a mosquito:

"Master~ I, I'm hungry~"

"Very good, wait, I'll serve you another bowl of polished rice porridge!"

Zhang Feng couldn't be more fond of helping others. He asked Ai Li to sit with his back facing him.

The road was not very smooth, the car was shaking, and Erica was a little motion sick again.

Seeing the spoon Zhang Feng handed over to hold the porridge, she swallowed it with a blushing face.

"Hmm~"

A little hot, but delicious.

...

Silverpine City.

Looking at the heavy snow outside, the expressions of the Marlows in the hotel were not very good.

"This... the snow is heavy again, and it feels like it can't stop!"

Shu Daqiang shook his head.

The weather in another world is like this, when it snows, it takes a long time to stop.

The previous sunny days were rare, which is why, as soon as these people saw the sunny days, they had to leave immediately, because there might be this good weather in the whole winter.

But it's okay now, at least they are in Yinpine City, the largest city in the north, if they don't go out to take risks, at least their lives are not in danger.

But this is not the result Marlowe wanted. He promised Zhang Feng that he would sell the special products of Hongye City to the capital, and then use the gold coins sold to buy certain living supplies to bring back. After all, the food in Hongye City is slightly less Some nervous.

"When can I go home!"

Annie's face was wrinkled.

If she chooses between home and Hongye City, she definitely wants to choose Hongye City, but now that she has left Hongye City, she must choose to go home.

This Silver Pine City is really not very good. Although it is big enough, the supporting facilities and quiet life inside cannot be compared with Hongye City.

Relatively speaking, her family is better, at least the castle at home is big enough for her to play freely.

"We have to prepare for the worst."

Abe shook his head at Annie.

The worst plan is that they are all trapped in Silverpine City.

"what!"

Annie was in a bad mood, and everyone was in a bad mood.

Some of them were going back to the capital, where their homes were, and some were sent by Zhang Feng to sell and buy supplies.

Although they can sell some goods from Red Leaf City in Silver Pine City, and then buy some food, but if the heavy snow doesn't stop, they won't be able to transport these supplies back, so what's the use of buying them?

Besides, they can be regarded as offending the Lord of Silverpine City. Although the other party should not do anything to him, if you want to buy supplies from him, you will definitely have some troubles, at least you have to pay a part of the price.

After all, the aristocrats have never had a big heart, which is generally recognized by everyone.

"Boom boom boom!"

Suddenly, there was a knock on the door.

Marlowe signaled his subordinates to open the door, and there was a businessman outside the door.

If I remember correctly, this person should be a merchant from Silver Pine City who has been in Hongye City for a while. Although I don't remember his name, he looks familiar.

"Knight Marlowe!"

Seeing Marlowe, the other party saluted, and then he spoke with an ugly face.

"Eugene was captured by Earl Longman!"

Um?

Everyone was taken aback for a moment, after all, they had just had a little quarrel with Earl Longman, and now that they heard his name, everyone subconsciously took it seriously.

"Who is Eugene?"

Some people don't know this person. After all, there are many merchants who left Hongye City. Except for the merchants of Hongye Business Alliance, the other merchants have their own small circles. It's normal for them to be unfamiliar.

"He came with us before, a merchant from Silverpine City."

Someone knew it and explained it, but he was a little confused.

"As far as I know, Eugene's strength should not be weak in Yinpine City, right? I heard that he has a good relationship with the City Lord's Mansion, so why was he captured?"

"This……"

The businessman hesitated, but decided to tell the truth.

"It's like this, the day before yesterday at the tavern, he met Benson, and then showed Benson the wine he bought from Hongye City..."

Listening to the businessman's words, everyone's mouths are getting bigger and bigger.

Especially when they heard that Eugene and Benson found a person pretending to be a down-and-out nobleman and sold the baijiu to a soldier captain in Silverpine City, they looked at each other, thinking of the baijiu they drank at the banquet yesterday, They seemed to understand something.

"I didn't know that the captain was actually a popular person in Earl Langman's eyes, and he let the Earl take Eugene away!"

The businessman was a little puzzled.

"Actually, I don't think it's a big deal. After all, the wine Eugene sells is not a fake wine, but a real red leaf specialty. Even if he made up something about "ancestral wine", it doesn't affect the quality of the wine. , the most is to sell more money, why did he want to arrest Eugene, it's not worth it...

From the looks of it, such a businessman is also half-knowledgeable.

For the sake of everyone's experience in Hongye City, someone opened his mouth and briefly explained what happened at the banquet yesterday.

Hearing that the earl kept calling baijiu at the banquet yesterday, the businessman opened his mouth wide. He finally understood why Eugene was arrested. It was not about the gold coins, it was about making the earl An embarrassing question for adults!

"This……"

He originally wanted to come to Marlowe and the others to discuss what to do. After all, Eugene was his good friend. It is impossible to provide any help in matters.

After all, it was not others that Eugene provoked, but the Earl, the most powerful person in Silverpine City!

Seeing Marlowe's helpless expression, the businessman left with a wry smile.

"I said, where did Earl Longman get the liquor? It turned out that Eugene tricked him!"

Shu Daqiang gloated a little.

He didn't have a good impression of Earl Longman, and naturally, he didn't have a good impression of the merchants in Silverpine City either. He was relieved to see the other dog biting the dog.

It doesn't matter to the others. Eugene is not a member of their alliance. It is a great gift to be able to send him back. As for what will happen to him later, everyone will naturally have no control and will not care, let alone he offended It's still Earl Longman, just go to the theater.

However, the development of things is not as simple as they thought...

Silverpine City, in the dungeon below the City Lord's Mansion.

In two adjacent cells, Eugene looked at Benson who was beaten to the brink of death, and felt chills in his heart. He could already see his fate.

Eugene regretted it very much. He shouldn't have listened to Benson's bad idea. If he sells baijiu well, he can sell it for a high price. There is no need to cheat like this. Now it's all right, and this crow's mouth like Benson's said it all. !

Benson said that as long as they didn't deceive the earl, they would be fine, but he didn't expect that the liquor was actually taken away by the earl!

Although Eugene still doesn't know why the Earl is so angry, but he is right after all, and he dare not quibble.

This Benson was whipped a few times by the Earl himself because he said a few words too much.

You must know that these whips are made of wattle soaked in salt water, and they are as thick as a wrist. Most people would probably be beaten to death with three whips.

Fortunately, this Earl Langman is estimated to be an ordinary man and woman who does a lot of exercise and is relatively weak. Although he beat Benson several times, the strength was not very strong compared to those professionals, and Benson was spared.

But only one life was left.

temporary.

It is not known how long Benson would live without treatment.

He really didn't expect that Earl Longman would be so unreasonable today!

After the soldiers found the two of them, they didn't give them a chance to explain, and directly took them to the prison. The usual Earl is not like this at all!

Although Earl Longman is also known as the smiling tiger, at least on the surface, he has done a good job, and he is a face-saving person.

On the bright side, he is still very popular with everyone, and he himself enjoys this feeling very much.

Although there are many people secretly scolding him.

If it was the former Earl Longman, Eugene felt that he could be forgiven if he paid some price, but now he didn't ask anything, didn't say anything, and beat Benson half to death!

Even Earl Langman doesn't care about face at all, there is no possibility of negotiation at all!

Eugene felt that he was probably doomed.

Thinking of how many goods he had yet to sell, and thinking of the faces of his wife and children, the corners of Eugene's mouth were bitter.

bang!

The sound of an iron chain being undone came from outside, making Eugene tremble subconsciously.

Looking at the long shadows by the light of the torch, Eugene shrank towards the corner of the wall unconsciously.

It was Earl Longman who came.

"Lord Earl, please forgive me. I know I was wrong. I am willing to pay for my mistake with five hundred gold coins!"

Although he felt that it might not be useful, Eugene still crawled on the ground. If he was not blocked by the railing, he might have climbed over to kiss Earl Longman's shoes.

"Heh! Five hundred gold coins? The Earl's face is only worth five hundred gold coins?"

Marcie spoke sarcastically.

Eugene quickly spoke again:

"A thousand gold coins, I am willing to pay a thousand gold coins!"

Seeing that Eugene added a thousand gold coins in a blink of an eye, Marcie was not only not happy, but rather jealous.

He couldn't even take out 500 gold coins, so how could he take out 1,000 gold coins!

Could it be because of Hongye City?

Thinking of the things they investigated in Hongye City in the past two days, Ma Xi still couldn't believe it.

She couldn't believe that after they left, Hongye City actually ushered in a very good new city lord. Under the leadership of the new city lord, Hongye City not only turned death into life, but also became more and more prosperous.

What a ten-meter-high city wall, countless delicacies, beautiful clothes, and the supreme enjoyment like a king...

She doesn't believe it, she doesn't want to believe it!

But after questioning several merchants and seeing the magical things they brought, she knew that this might be true.

This made Marcie very unwilling and very jealous!

Why do you develop as soon as I leave?

Why can you live so well without me?

If this was any other place, Marcie might not be like this, but this is Red Leaf City, the Red Leaf City she stayed in, and the Red Leaf City she thought would never rise!

Now Marcie is a little sick in her heart.

Compared to Marcie, Earl Longman is much more normal.

He said with a smile:

"You know, I don't really care about gold coins. It doesn't matter to me if you have more gold coins or less. If it was in the past, I wouldn't bother you at all..."

Hearing these words, Eugene's heart turned cold.

"But now, you have made me ashamed in front of so many people, and let an earl be ashamed in front of outsiders under my own. Tell me, should you be punished!"

At the end, Earl Langman's face became a little hideous.

"Yes! I should!"

Eugene didn't know how he had embarrassed the Earl, but he still nodded hastily.

"Let an earl lose face, and you can only restore it with death!"

Earl Langman was very angry.

In fact, speaking of it, he was also to blame for this matter.

When he discovered these liquors, Marlowe gave him the liquors in order to remind him and treat him as a favor, but Langman didn't expect so much at the time. In front of everyone, he opened the liquor.

Now it's all right, it's a complete shame!

I heard that these baijiu were brewed by the lord of Hongye City, and he kept saying that this was the red wine handed down from his ancestors. Isn't this a few generations shorter in an instant!

Can this not make him angry!

Of course, although he was to blame for this matter, if he didn't brag and listened to Marlowe, he would definitely not be in the current situation, but he is the earl, he can't make mistakes, and he can't find the reason on himself.

In order to vent, he decided to kill two people.

As a Lord Earl and the Lord of Silverpine City, he has this right.

Hearing Earl Longman's undisguised killing intent, Eugene's face became more and more frightened. He knew that if he didn't think of a way, he would really die!

"Master Earl, I am willing to donate all my property to ask for your forgiveness!"

Eugene yelled in a tearful voice.

"Tch, how much property can a small businessman like you have, can the Earl value it?"

Marcy was a little mocking, but her tone was also a little sour. She spoke from the perspective of Earl Longman.

Earl Langman nodded, in order to vent his anger, it is worth noting the thousand gold coins!

"I have ten thousand gold coins!"

After Eugene shouted out, the scene was instantly quiet.

"What did you say?"

Marcie was dumbfounded.

"The goods I brought from Hongye City can definitely be sold for 10,000 gold coins with just a little operation!"

In order to save his life, Eugene can only take out all the current issues. Although 10,000 gold coins may sound exaggerated, it is still possible in theory, provided that no one competes with him.

Although this is impossible, that's all he can say now.

Sure enough, the 10,000 gold coins were exported, not to mention Marcie, even Earl Longman was shocked.

"You have goods worth 10,000 gold coins?"

"My goods are definitely worth 10,000 gold coins. As long as the Earl spares my dog's life, I will dedicate these goods to the Earl, and I will help the Lord sell them to earn the highest profit!"

Not only did Eugene give away his entire worth, he even gave away himself.

In order to survive, there is no other way.

"This……"

One thousand gold coins could not completely impress Earl Longman, but ten thousand gold coins was different.

Although Marcie was very jealous, she was good at observing words and expressions, and she saw that the earl was a little moved, and she immediately said:

"You don't have a place to bargain here. Hurry up and offer up your wealth. Maybe the Earl will spare your life for the sake of you knowing your mistakes and correcting them!"

Although Marcie said ambiguously, Eugene breathed a sigh of relief instantly.

Based on his understanding of the Earl, it was obvious that he was moved, but he was too embarrassed to speak, so he let An Xi speak.

The danger has not been lifted, but at present, his life should be saved.

Eugene didn't dare to hesitate either. He brought Marcie and the soldiers back to his home, and after comforting his wife and children, he immediately carried out all the goods and took all the more than a thousand gold coins in his hand.

Marcy didn't feel much when she saw the goods, but when she saw the thousand gold coins, her jealousy almost exploded.

She kept a cold face along the way, and Eugene was too scared to speak.

In the castle, after seeing these goods and hearing Eugene's explanation, Earl Langman's eyes lit up at first, but his face became ugly after listening to it.

To put it simply, these goods are normally worth 3,000 gold coins, but if he imposes restrictions on the merchants in the city, they are not allowed to sell things from Red Leaf City, or before Earl Langman sells them, these merchants cannot sell them. If they form a monopoly, these goods can only be sold for 10,000 gold coins!

"Bold! How dare you deceive the Earl!"

Marcie, who was standing beside Earl Langman, immediately opened her mouth angrily.

"My lord, calm down. As long as you issue this order, you don't need to do anything else. Just leave everything to me. I can guarantee to sell 10,000 gold coins. If you can't sell them, I will punish you willingly with the earl! "

Eugene immediately lay down on the ground, looking for a reason for himself to survive for a while.

Although Eugene couldn't guarantee that he could sell for 10,000 gold coins 100%, but for his own life, he could only say so.

Earl Langman frowned. He looked at the goods for a while, and Eugene for a while, obviously a little unsure.

"How many merchants in the city came back from Hongye City?"

"Reporting to the Earl, there should be about twenty people!"

Eugene spoke quickly.

"More than twenty people!"

Hearing Eugene's words, Earl Longman's face was not good-looking. It is not impossible for him to restrict more than 20 merchants from selling goods, but it is very difficult. After all, Earl Langman himself has a good reputation.

If there are one or two, if he threatens and intimidates a little, the other party will definitely not dare to fart. But if there are so many people, don't think about it, it will definitely not be that simple.

Even if he doesn't operate well at all, his reputation will really be rotten, which will make him how to hang out in the aristocratic circle in the future!

Although everyone knows that each other is hypocritical, it is one thing to know, and another thing to be exposed.

No, you can't do that!

Earl Langman is also a ruthless person. For his own reputation, he would rather not have the 10,000 gold coins. No, it should be 6,000 gold coins. Besides, he has already obtained the goods of the 1,000 gold coins and 3,000 gold coins. Longman The earl was not in vain.

"As a just earl, the lord of Silverpine City..."

Seeing Earl Langman's serious face, and listening to his unfinished words, Eugene's expression changed. He knew that Earl Langman loved face, but he didn't expect him to care about face so much!

Eugene felt the killing intent in Earl Longman's eyes!

At the critical moment, he immediately opened his mouth in a panic:

"Master Earl, I have another plan, which will allow you to earn 100,000 gold coins in a short time!"

"One hundred thousand? Huh!"

Although this figure was very tempting, Earl Longman no longer believed in Eugene.

"My lord, I am serious!"

Regardless of whether he would bump into Earl Longman, Eugene said quickly:

"In our Silverpine City, there is also a caravan. They all came from Hongye City, and they are not from our Silverpine City. They have tons of supplies! Much more than mine! As long as they can get these Materials, 100,000 gold coins are the lowest!"

Eugene's face was a bit ferocious, and he didn't care so much for the sake of his life.

Although there may be revenge from the city lord of Hongye afterwards, it will not matter if he can survive the present, and the news may not be able to spread!

"Bold, who do you take Earl Ben for!"

Earl Langman clapped his hands and seemed very angry.

"My lord, what my subordinates said is true, maybe even more exaggerated than what I said, because I am just a very weak businessman among this group of people, and they are all big businessmen with names and surnames. The goods are much more than mine! And their leader is the most capable subordinate of the Lord of Hongye City. He came with a mission this time. I heard that he wants to dedicate the most valuable things in Hongye City to the king! If we get this thing and dedicate it to the king, you may not be an earl, but a marquis!"

Eugene looked excited, as if he had become a Marquis.

What he said was half true and half false. It was true that those merchants had more goods than him, but Marlowe was the one who was talking nonsense, in order to increase the interest of Earl Longman.

But what Eugene didn't know was that Marlowe really brought a lot of goods with him. Although they were not dedicated to the king, they were also intended to be sold in the capital.

He's also hitting the ground right.

Hearing Eugene's words, especially hearing that he might become a Marquis, Earl Longman's breathing was a little heavy.

In the Kingdom of Buck, there are actually not many nobles.

Even a few hundred gold coins can buy a title.

But this is just an ordinary title.

Generally, it is the lowest baron, and sometimes a viscount can also be bought, but this is the limit.

It is impossible to buy titles above viscount, that is, earl, marquis, and duke with gold coins, and can only be granted by the king.

Moreover, in their noble circles, viscounts and barons have no sense of existence, and are even looked down upon by other big nobles. Only when they reach the earl can they be regarded as the real noble class!

After all, the knighthood bought with money and the knighthood bestowed by the king are two different concepts!

So, after the earl, it is very difficult to improve, especially now that there is no war, it is even more difficult in this peaceful age.

If he can really become a Marquis, Langman can definitely be called the Guangzong Yaozu!

Although he felt that Eugene's words were not very credible, Langman was really moved.

He is hesitant now, whether to continue pretending to be a good person for his own reputation, or to do some bold things in order to become a Marquis.

On the sidelines, Marcie didn't speak, but when she heard Eugene's words, her eyes lit up instantly.

If there is anything that can make her happy now, except for the fact that the Earl divorced his original wife and married himself, then it can only teach Marlowe and those who came from Hongye City a lesson!

"My lord, I think it's feasible!"

Marcie first made her own point of view, and then explained:

"In this season, no one knows that there are caravans from Hongye City coming to our Yinpine City, and some people are very low-key. Even if they are seen from the city, no one knows that these people are from Hongye City. !"

In winter, civilians hardly go out. It is estimated that except for these businessmen, hotel owners and some soldiers defending the city, no one knows that there are so many people in Silverpine City.

In particular, people like Marlowe are still very low-key. They came to Silverpine City to settle temporarily, and they didn't intend to sell or buy here. He did it to prevent people from being targeted and causing fearless trouble.

But unexpectedly, he was still being targeted.

"Master Earl, think about it. There are so many of them, and they are mainly businessmen. They don't even do business in order to keep a low profile. Why? There must be some secret! I think Eugene's words are very credible!"

Listening to Marcie's categorical words, Earl Longman was still a little tangled.

"Then what do you think we should do? I don't want to use swords against these people. You know, I am a pacifist, and after all, they belong to the baron of Hongye City..."

Earl Longman's hypocrisy, even Marcie had to secretly roll her eyes, but she knew that the Earl was moved, so she hit the rails while it was hot:

"We don't need to fight with them. After all, they also have a knight. We can buy what they have!"

"Buy?"

Earl Langman frowned, he seemed to understand something.

"Yes, buy it! As for the price? Of course it is the lowest price! Now they are on our territory, dare not listen to us? You must know that there are 10,000 soldiers and 50 knights in our Silverpine City! Even if Marlowe Qiang is just a knight, they will definitely be afraid of us!"

This is very typical, relying on one's own strength to carry out strong buying and strong selling.

"This……"

Langman was a little hesitant. Although it sounded good, it still seemed to damage his reputation! ,

Even Earl Langman's pillow, she naturally knew Langman's thoughts, so she smiled and said:

"Your Excellency can do this, let's find an excuse first, and then put them under house arrest. Aren't they going to leave, then we won't let them leave, even if the snow stops! They must be the ones who are anxious at that time! Or We can be more aggressive and rush in directly to take away their goods for the purpose of inspection. Of course, this may arouse their resistance..."

"Then... the first idea, I will leave this matter to you!"

Earl Longman felt that the first one was more reliable.

"Obey, my lord!"

The corner of Marcie's mouth twitched, she was looking forward to seeing how nervous Marlowe was.

"As for him?"

Seeing Earl Longman looking at him thoughtfully, Eugene said quickly:

"Master Earl, I can also help, I know what is valuable, I..."

But before he finished speaking, Marcie came over.

Marcy squatted down and looked down at Eugene lying on the ground.

"Ms. Marcy, please let me help you, I can-"

"No, you are no longer worthless. A person who is worthless can only die!"

brush!

Marcie took out a dagger from her skirt, and stabbed Eugene's chest directly under Eugene's terrified eyes.

Puff!

Blood spattered and splashed Marcie's face.

Eugene fell unwillingly, under Marcie's skirt.

The last image in his consciousness was a black forest.

Seeing Eugene dying with regret, Marcie licked the corner of her mouth excitedly, the smell of blood made her a little excited.

Not only her, but Earl Longman, who smelled blood, was also a little excited.

The reason why Marcie became Earl Longman's pillow was not only good skills, but also that they had a little habit in common, they were very excited when they saw blood.

That's why Earl Langman didn't stop her from killing people in his hall.

"Master Earl~"

Marcie bit her lip, her face was not delicate, but in the eyes of Earl Longman, it was so beautiful.

Earl Langman rushed over with red eyes.

Clothes were thrown in a pool of blood.

In Eugene's slowly dilating pupils, two embracing bodies are reflected.

...

Marlowe was a little strange.

He has always felt that someone is watching him recently.

Or rather, monitoring his caravan.

For his sixth sense, Marlowe is still very cautious. He found Abe, and the other party also felt the same way.

The perception of the two top knights needs to be paid attention to.

Marlowe gathered the people together and told them not to go out, and after she and Abe secretly observed, it turned out that someone was watching his caravan!

There are a lot of people, at least more than thirty people.

This is only monitored on the surface, and I don’t know how much there is in the dark!

And judging from the other party's posture, Marlowe knew that this was not an ordinary person, but a trained soldier!

In Silverpine City, there is only one person who can have this kind of strength - Earl Longman!

"We are being watched by Earl Longman?"

When Marlowe told everyone the news, everyone couldn't believe it, but after thinking about it carefully, they offended Earl Langman after all. If the Earl disregarded his reputation, he might really do something to them possible!

But it's not worth it, for the sake of a so-called face, you don't want your noble image?

"What if he's for our goods?"

Anne spoke weakly.

Everyone looked at her, and Annie waved her hands a little unsurely.

"Uh... I guessed wildly..."

Marlowe and Abe looked at each other, and they spoke together.

"That should be the reason!"

"There is a great possibility!"

Only they themselves know how valuable these goods are!

Hearing that Earl Langman was coveting their things, everyone suddenly became restless. If this kind of thing goes wrong, they will die!

As businessmen, they encountered many dangers, but this was the first time they were targeted by the Earl!

"Can we force our way out?"

Someone said worriedly.

"No, not to mention that if we forcefully leave, many people may be injured or even die, just say that the wind and snow outside are so heavy that we will not be able to survive if we leave!"

Marlowe said.

"Is it possible that we will be trapped here to death?"

"Damn...I didn't expect an earl to act so lowly!"

"It may be that our wealth is too much... It must be the secret of the local merchants of Silverpine City, otherwise he would not know what we have!"

"Don't worry, everyone, I'll figure it out!"

After Marlowe comforted everyone, he called the core people together.

He thought of what Zhang Feng told him back then, and said to several people:

"Are any of you good at sneaking, I need to report the news here to Lord City Lord!"

Zhang Feng said that if you encounter an invincible enemy, you must withdraw first to preserve your strength.

But now it is clear that it cannot be withdrawn.

Zhang Feng also said that if you suffer a loss, don't think about revenge, first write down the name and address of the other party, and it will not be too late to take revenge in the future!

Now they are likely to face great danger, and they may even die here. After all, this is a big city, and there are countless soldiers and knights in it!

If they were all sacrificed, then the city lord must know whose hands they died in!

Hearing what Marlowe said, everyone, look at me and I look at you. It seems that there is no one who is good at sneaking.

At this time, Shu Daqiang raised his hand in embarrassment.

"I'm good at sneaking..."

As a great orc, his ability is so tasteless.

Shu Daqiang usually would not take the initiative to speak out, but now is not the usual time.

"very good!"

Marlowe's eyes lit up.

"I need you to report to Lord City Lord!"

"Ah? How can I escape at this time! No, I won't go!"

Don't look at Shu Daqiang who is usually timid, but when it's time to talk about loyalty, he is not ambiguous at all!

"This is not an escape. We may be able to solve the crisis, or we may be wiped out, but I must prepare for the worst. If we are all dead, I will not report to the city lord. The city lord will definitely be kept in the dark Here, we may even be tricked by Langman, so we must let the city lord know about it!"

After listening to Marlowe's words, Shu Daqiang struggled for a while, and he finally gritted his teeth and said:

"Yes, I can report to Hongye City, but I'm not sure I can make it to Hongye City alive..."

It was windy and snowy outside, and the map couldn't be read. If he left, there was a high probability that he would die outside.

"Don't worry, I have a lot of rewards from the city lord here. With these, there is a high probability that you will be able to return to Hongye City alive!"

Marlowe took out a compass, a map, a windproof lighter and other items.

Shu Daqiang took it over solemnly. He looked at Marlowe and gave Marlowe a heavy blow on the chest.

"Brothers, you have to live and wait for my return!"

Marlowe nodded.

night.

Shu Daqiang was carrying a small burden on his back, and quietly opened the door, and there was thick snow outside.

He immediately plunged headfirst into the snow, and disappeared in an instant, leaving only a hole the size of a bucket. It is estimated that this hole will be covered by heavy snow tomorrow.
