Our family is in decline

Soon Amanda met the person in charge of Totnes whom she had not seen for some time.

"Sierra! Is this your sincerity?" Amanda sat opposite the woman unceremoniously, but the expression on her face was not good-looking at all, and there was an obvious smell of gunpowder in her words.

"You guys go out first, Amanda and I need to have a good talk." Facing Amanda's accusation, Sierra, who was sitting opposite, smiled as if nothing was wrong and raised her hand to signal the guards who came in to go out. For a moment, the room was full of chaos. The two of them were left.

She calls Amanda by her first name, and doesn't even want to add "ma'am".

Amanda is familiar with this kind of attitude between superiors and subordinates. She doesn’t know why Sierra is this guy?

Serra, who was originally the person in charge of the Roma people in Totnes, didn't get much good results the last time she came to Hamlet.

Originally, she wanted to gain reputation by stepping on Amanda, but she didn't expect that Lance didn't give her any face, which made her completely unable to leave.

In the end, when Amanda rescued the Roma people, the comparison made her look like an out-and-out joke.

In any case, Hamlet was the place where she made a fool of herself. She could have just not come and left it to her subordinates.

But she actually came over in person again, and judging from her reaction, there was no obvious resentment, but rather a sense of pride.

The reason why she can still laugh is very simple. She made too much money by buying and selling Hamlet-related information on the last trip, and her face was exposed within the organization.

The Roma people have this advantage. They don't care about face, as long as there are benefits.

And now Amanda has voluntarily given up taking the title of the person in charge of the empire. Although Sera has not yet taken the position, she believes that no one in the empire can compete with her.

She was once a loser, but now she acts like a winner, which shows where her confidence comes from.

Oh shit! Seeing how cheap the guy opposite was, Amanda really wanted to whip her with a whip.

"I don't have time to play any games with you. Now! Immediately! Immediately! Explain to me why the news about Hamlet spread on a large scale.

besides! Why did you bring those people here? You should know what I'm talking about. I don't want to remind you. You should know what it means. "

He was so proud of himself that he just wanted to give Amanda a beating and pretend to be cool in front of her to regain the face he had lost.

But Sierra didn’t expect Amanda to come so suddenly, and subconsciously wanted to get angry.

"Amanda! I am..."

But just as she opened her mouth, a loud sound interrupted her words.

Amanda was even more fierce than her and directly raised her hand and shouted angrily:

"What are you! Why do you think you have the right to pretend in front of me? You are not even qualified to see him. That's why I appear here. You should know who I represent now!

Now he is unhappy, and you have made me unlucky with you. If you don't give me an explanation for this matter today, I won't be able to live well, and you won't be able to live well either! "

If another person dared to speak to her like this, Sierra might just turn over the table.

But... Sera's expression changed several times, but in the end she suppressed her anger and put on a smile to face him.

"Why are you so anxious? We are our own people and we will definitely give you an explanation."

Sierra chose to endure it, not because of Amanda, but because of that man.

At least that's what she convinced herself.

"Then why don't you take out the things?" Amanda forced her without giving her any face and did not give her any chance to talk nonsense: "Don't let me say it a second time."

When Sera heard this, she suddenly realized something.

Yes, this guy knows all about the organization's habits.

But now that they were forced to this point, Sera could only reluctantly hand over a piece of information.

What kind of moral level can a Roma have? If she can sell Hamlet's information, she can naturally sell other people's information.

This is what she gathered about the fleet. She originally wanted to wait for Lance to pay a high price, but she didn't expect to be blackmailed by Amanda.

Sera has seen it all, and she is still ruthless to "one of her own"!

You must report her to the organization when you go back!

But then I thought about it, she didn't even care about the position of the person in charge now, and I really had nothing to do, after all, I had to deal with her for future transactions.

Just thinking about this Sierra gives me a headache. If I had known, I wouldn’t have...

Amanda didn't care about her reaction at all. She took the thing and looked through it briefly. She could tell at a glance whether it was genuine or not.

What methods in the organization did she, the omen seeker, not know about?

After getting the things, Amanda's attitude also softened, and she finalized the original deals again, such as extraordinary equipment, some rare materials, and the ascension potion that can be regarded as Hamlet's specialty.

It is obvious from here that what he did just now was just to force Sera.

How to deal with these Roma people, probably no one in the whole Hamlet knows better than her.

But by the time Sera reacted, it was already too late, and her chips were worthlessly handed over in a panic.

The deal with Hamlet made her a lot of money, but she still felt unhappy.

Seeing someone else taking advantage of someone else, but picking it up from her own hands, was simply more uncomfortable than killing her.

"I have collected a lot of important new information, are you interested?"

Amanda casually threw out a sentence, and Sera immediately changed her attitude when she heard it, like a puppy hearing that dinner was served.

What grudge? No, we are good sisters.

"Tell me what information it is?"

"I heard that you made a lot of money using Hamlet's information. You're rich!" Amanda talked to him indifferently. She was obviously talking about information, but suddenly turned to the matter of Sera getting rich.

Everyone is a smart person. As soon as Sera said this, she understood something. She just wanted money.

"How much?"

Amanda spread her fingers towards Sierra.

"Five hundred? Okay."

"What do you think? It's 50%." Amanda emphasized, "I want 50% of the proceeds from these news."

"Fifty percent!" Sierra looked shocked. This was not a deliberate reaction, but she was really scared.

After reacting, he quickly shook his head, "Impossible, absolutely impossible! You should know how much it costs us to verify a message. If he really wants to take 50% of it, we will have to pay for it. Go and tell him clearly."

"What does it have to do with him? I want this money."

Unexpectedly, Amanda suddenly said such a sentence, which immediately stopped Sierra who was about to speak. She hesitated for a moment before she reacted and couldn't help but ask.

"What? You want this money?"

Sierra looked at Amanda with a strange expression, suddenly feeling a little unable to see through her.

But Amanda didn't mean to explain, but started talking about it again.

"You don't need to give this money, you just need to pay it to him. If I don't tell you, the organization won't know.

At that time, you will be able to get the latest intelligence from me to prove your qualifications in the empire's intelligence work, and I will get the money, which will benefit both of us. "

Amanda looked careless, playing with her nails, "Of course, you can also ask him, he knows more than me, or you can plant an informant, so you don't know if he finds out. What will happen next~"

Sierra fell into deep thought. She finally understood that Amanda just wanted to make money by using that lord's name. No wonder she gave up those names. It turned out to be because of this.

This guy is more greedy than she imagined. I am afraid that both the organization and the man have been kept in the dark by her and have become her tools.

"Aren't you afraid that I'll tell him about this?" Sierra stared closely at her opponent's expression, trying to catch any flaw.

"Do you think he believes in me? Or does he believe in you?" But Amanda raised her head with a smile, held her face that was slightly sideways with her hands rather frivolously, and asked with one hand on the table.

Sierra suddenly realized something. Amanda was young and beautiful, and no man would be attracted by the charming look in her movements. I am afraid that the lord was fascinated by her.

On the contrary, I offended that person last time, so even if I went to find him, it would be useless.

屮! This bitch! Slut!

Naturally, Sierra was constantly cursing her, but well... she was not a loyal minister, and I had to say that Amanda's words made her a little moved.

She still can't forget the benefits brought by the last news. Let's not talk about money or not. Just letting her face appear on it is very valuable. After all, the name of the organization's leader in the empire is still pending.

Anyway, the money from selling the news is not her own, and it is none of her business whether it is given to Amanda or to the organization.

In addition, this news was indeed brought by someone else, so it is reasonable to increase the money.

Looking for that person? Unfortunately, as Amanda said, she couldn't even meet him in person.

As for planting spies? Sera could still tell the difference between a full meal and a full meal. Her deal with Hamlet was long-term, so there was no need to break up over uncertain information.

The main reason is that with Amanda, the omen seeker, there is no possibility for Roma spies to exist, and these "fellow fellows" who have been inserted will become a bargaining chip for her to claim credit.

So after calculating this, it is indeed best to trade with her.

"Thirty percent, that's all I can give you. If I really didn't make any money, I wouldn't waste my time on it."

"Even if I say 80%, they have to agree, because only I can provide this information, and it is very important information. For the organization, this kind of information can greatly demonstrate its capabilities. Spending money to buy reputation is also worth buying reputation. Well worth it.”

Sierra's little trick couldn't fool Amanda. After the two bargained, the price was finally settled at 40 to 60 cents, but Sierra had to pay the last consultation fee.

A whole box of gold coins was taken out, and the moment it was opened, the golden light flashed, making the originally dark room suddenly brighter. Even Amanda was moved.

It's still fun to be an information dealer. If you sell a piece of information, you can get thousands of gold coins, and it's not just a single sale.

"Here's the money, where's the news?" Sierra kept urging, and gave the money away before it was even warm. Although it was originally meant to be given to the organization, it still hurt.

"Why are you so anxious?" Amanda raised her hand and the box of gold coins disappeared, and then she continued, "You will get what you want..."

First, the Count of Bastia gave up a large area of ​​territory, took the initiative to shrink the defense line and put the barbarians into the empire. For this reason, he allowed the barbarians to plunder and used this as an excuse to recruit troops.

Second, the barbarians have formed a coalition and caused many robberies on the borders of the empire, which have even spread to Hamlet, but the strange thing is that they have not attacked the core area of ​​Bastia.

Third, a noble convoy with hundreds of guards was attacked by barbarian marauders in Hamlet, and no one was alive at the scene.

After hearing these words, Sierra asked with suspicion.

"Are these messages true?"

"There have been large-scale robberies in villages and towns on the border. Many people have been forced to migrate as refugees. There are also military service evaders who are coming to Hamlet. They have brought us a lot of news about Bastia."

The source of the news is quite serious, nothing too outrageous.

"Is Bastia really going to join the war?" Serra seemed a little hesitant. This news is either big or small, and the only people who are interested in it are the empire, and of course other people who occupy one side. The great nobles may also be waiting and watching.

When the time comes, the war that has reached a stalemate and is restricted may further expand and even become a war affecting the entire empire. What will happen to Totnes...

"I don't know if Bastia will join the war, but I still think the noble convoy that was attacked is more valuable."

Amanda's words drew Sierra's attention.

"Why do you say that?"

"Let me put it this way, the attack on the noble team was due to a fire. Even Hamlet saw the rising smoke. I was inside when someone was sent to check. The scene was full of corpses and things. All were looted.

But you should know my ability. I can feel that there is something wrong. Unfortunately, I have cleaned it up too clean, and the fire has burned it so I can’t tell what it is. "

Amanda asked in a leading way.

"Do you know any big nobles have come here recently?"

Sera couldn't help but fall into deep thought after hearing this. She did have some information, but...

"I sold the news and many people bought it in the imperial capital. It must have reached the ears of the emperor. He was probably really worried that Count Bastia would unite with the barbarians to rebel, so I heard that the emperor planned to let his sister and Count Bastia marriage of heirs.

But the news leaked out for some reason. The rebels attacked the convoy escorting the princess. Even the imperial champion knight disappeared during the attack. The princess also disappeared. Could it be? "

After thinking about it again and again, Sierra finally said it. No matter how much she hated Amanda, there was still a lot of cooperation to come.

"Did you sell this news?"

Amanda looked at Sierra with a playful expression, but this look scared people, so she quickly denied it.

"I'm not crazy. How could I sell the team's information? I only found out about it after the fact."

Sierra felt a little guilty when she said this, not knowing what role she played in this matter.
