Son of the Olden Days

Chapter 246: Sudden change

"Oh..., no! Please wait, master, I...I think I have no problem." Ostan stammered, his expression struggling a few times, and finally stayed in frustration.

Seeing the maid lowering his head, it seemed that he was about to cross out his son's name from the paper, he was a little anxious, and finally he could only say good things and hand over his money bag.

Since the two Patriarchs who came in before went out empty-handed, obviously they both paid the money.

Osteen gritted his teeth. If you are deceived, you will be deceived, and everyone will be deceived together.

The maid untied the tether from the mouth of the purse, and then shook the purse a few times in her arms.

The purse is not heavy, because the delivery method of each owner is 30 longan with two hundred golden eagles. After a rough inspection, the maid tied the rope around the bag and threw the whole bag of money at the foot of the table as if throwing a bag of garbage.

From beginning to end, the old man did not turn his head to take a look. The two masters and servants, the old and the young, did not see the slightest greedy look on their faces. After quietly observing, Ostan could only temporarily relax his mind and no longer worry about money issues.

"Don't worry too much, this little money may soon return to its original owner." The old man waved his hand calmly.

"Master, what do you... mean?" Osteen looked over with a puzzled look.

"Three days later, please bring the outstanding heirs of your own family, and they are still in this place. Of course, in addition to the little guys you like, if there are other outstanding nephews in the family, you can also bring them together, two or three for each family. One."

"I will make some judgments and adjustments based on their aptitudes. I have made it clear in my previous letter to the heads of the family. Because of my limited personal energy, I cannot recruit too many apprentices. In the end, the number of apprentices I can afford is only Within ten people."

Osteen nodded, remembering the question of the limited number of places mentioned in the previous letter.

It seems that this matter is not over yet, and there may be a competition between the nephews and nephews of the families. The old man also understands that if the child you recommend is not qualified enough, then all the money will naturally be returned to you.

This method of recruiting apprentices also conformed to the style of magicians on the mainland, and Ostan didn't think there was any problem.

"Then master, can we send some guards in our family? After all, the wilderness is very dangerous, and some small troubles are not easy to trouble the master to make multiple shots." Ostan asked tentatively.

"Yes, but that's after the candidate is determined, and it shouldn't be too much."

"Each selected little guy can bring a servant and two guards. The board and lodging of these guards are also included in the tuition fee. I also responded to the previous two Patriarchs." The old man replied decisively. change.

Hearing the old man’s answer, Osten was relieved. He thought very clearly about this. For these three days, just send someone to keep an eye on these four people and wait for the children in the family to be selected before choosing a strong guard to follow in the team. What's the problem? Can also be shot in time.

And Ostan believes that even if he doesn't do these things, people in other families must already be doing them.

The talk was almost finished, and the old man summoned the halfling guard outside the tent and sent Ostan to leave.

Out of the tent, Osteen sighed silently, and looked up to see a few more carriages on the side of the square.

Obviously, there are other families coming after him. Osten also has no desire to come forward and communicate. Everyone can't talk about friendship at all, and in three days, everyone is likely to become a competitor.

"Isn't this old friend Ostan? Are you here too?" A voice suddenly came from a carriage.

Osteen tilted his head and saw that it was the Patriarch of the Kirol family with whom he had business dealings. Osteen also didn't see him, opened the carriage door and sat in the other party's carriage.

"Does old friend Ostan think this matter is credible?" Kirol personally poured a glass of cool drink for Ostan.

"Doubtly believe it." Osteen said vaguely, but rolled his eyes in his heart.

This question is simply nonsense, don't you believe what you are doing? It is estimated that people who do not believe will not appear in this square. As for those who come, seeing the actions of other families, it is estimated that they can only passively believe in the end.

So the topic in the carriage revolved around the arena competition, revolving around astrology, and the voice gradually became inaudible.

Watching Ostan walk out of the tent, Beth's tight face burst into a smile instantly, and she looked a little eagerly towards the heavy purse at her feet. If these were taken back to the territory, they would definitely bring huge changes to the territory.

In fact, Saul has made it very clear beforehand that the point of a scam is whether you can see through it. If you can't see through it, it's useless to get many people. Those who will come have roughly two mindsets, believing, or half-believing, that's enough.

Beth never thought of herself as a person who admired wealth, but it was undeniable that her eyes were full of shiny coins at this moment. Although she couldn't figure out what the whole thing was going on, it was clear that Saul succeeded, and she was naturally very happy.

Just now the first Patriarch came in, and after a few words of confrontation, Beth was still a little nervous when she received the money, and then her heart calmed down with difficulty. That is two thousand golden eagles! It is roughly equal to more than 30 longans and about 30,000 silver coins. This is only one family.

"Calm down, there will be a few more in the future. If it reveals the stuffing, I will spank." Sol patted Beth's little **** amusedly, and then reached out to pass the purse at the foot of the table and collect it. Once you enter the space ring, you can run away at any time when the time comes.

Saul told these patriarchs to lead their nephews to test their qualifications in three days. In fact, it would not take three days at all. It is estimated that the four of them will have returned to the territory to carry wine glasses after the night falls tonight.

Sol is not doing nothing these days, such as this old man's disguise. From appearance to dress, appearance is the most troublesome and complicated. Wearing the gorgeous gown tailored by Beth for herself actually comes in handy.

Then the surrounding racks and gadgets, including the carpet and the tent itself, were all purchased from the market by Sol, specially prepared for today. Thor also drank a special potion, which had the effect of hiding his rank strength.

As for Sol telling Beth to return the money to Ostan just now, just to master the rhythm of the conversation. In this scam, as long as one person is fooled by Saul, he makes money, so he doesn't care how many people there are, and he can behave to a great extent.

Stant and Diller, who were standing outside the tent at the moment, were also very happy. They could hear most of the conversation in the tent, and the people who had just entered with the money bag came out empty-handed, obviously a fish had been caught, and there was more than one.

It's just that now they are standing on the bright side, they can't show the slightest on their faces, they can only continue to remain indifferent.

The morning gradually passed, and the street gradually became lively.

But perhaps because I felt the atmosphere of the entire square, coupled with the many magnificent carriages parked on the side of the square, and the tents with guards that appeared in the square, no one came to break the quiet atmosphere of the square.

One after another, families arrived, and after entering the tent for a while, they came out empty-handed, repeating this boring process.

These families did not leave immediately after paying the money. Some acquaintances began to talk, and the topic was nothing more than the authenticity of the so-called prophecy. Some of the others are either on the sidelines, some seem to be waiting to see the excitement, wanting to see how many people will participate in this matter.

Sol silently looked at the list in his hand, and he was also a little excited. The number of letters sent out in the last batch is 20, which means that the number of invited families is also 20, and the best result is if all of them come.

But Saul did not expect that result, because everyone has different personalities after all, and it is inevitable that there are some people who are conservative and stubborn. They may not see the scam, but they are stubborn and unbelief in their hearts. It is not surprising that they do not come.

But at this moment, the twenty families on the list in Sol's hand have already arrived, and a few of them are long overdue.

Saul was not surprised about this. They might not believe it at first, but they must have sent someone to keep an eye on the movement of the square. They couldn't sit still after the news spread. As long as someone takes the lead in this kind of thing, the people behind are easily shaken.

Thor, who knew his plan well, knew that there would never be a family coming again. As long as they waited until noon according to the time stated in the letter, the four of them could leave the scene calmly, without a trace.

Time gradually passed, and the moment of ending finally arrived.

Just when Sol was about to summon Stanter and Diller, come in to pack things and leave.

"Who are you?" Stanter's voice suddenly came from outside the tent, followed by some collisions.

Beth tilted her head to look at Saul nervously, Saul frowned and shook his head, and then returned to calm.

Soon, someone lifted the curtain of the tent.

Then a girl in a long skirt walked in, surrounded by two guards.

The three of them clearly broke in, and Saul felt that things might be a bit tricky for the first time in his heart. Because the two guards around the girl who were wearing tight armor and full-face helmets without even showing their faces, both had the strength of at least Tier 5.

"I wonder which family this lady represents?"

The intention of the other party is unknown, but the momentum seems to be very tough. Sol didn't know if it was because of the scam being seen through, or there was some other change, so he could only try to get the conversation back to his own pace.

"I don't represent any family, I am Caroline, the second daughter of King Schinard V." The girl's voice was crisp and sweet, and her eyes swept across the faces of Thor and Beth in the tent, and she directly said her identity.

"The guard outside the door hasn't seen much in the world. Please let me apologize for any offense. I don't know what happened to Princess Caroline's arrival?"

Saul reacted quickly. Although he looked like an old man at the moment, in this monarchy, he didn't want to use his age to rely on his old age, so he immediately got up and saluted.

"Now, I need you to come with me, Master." Caroline said, holding her hand, looking at Saul.
