Summoning the Holy Sword
Chapter 26: The other end of the balance
The aroma of black tea spread in the luxuriously decorated room, but it did not change the cold atmosphere inside.
"Mr. Klett, I cannot agree to your terms."
The middle-aged man put down the tea cup and refused resolutely.
"The situation in the mines is very stable now. We think that it is very unreasonable to increase the price significantly at this time. As a member of the association, of course, I have to consider the interests of the association, but in this regard, I really cannot help ... and hope you understand. "
"Please don't be so excited, Mr. Keller."
Sitting on a soft sofa, the man in a large, gorgeous robe showed a cold smile.
"The 30% increase in the price of ore is an unanimous opinion of the Association. As a member of the Association, you must comply."
"But this is not normal!"
Keller frowned.
"The supply of ore is not in short supply at present, and it will be difficult for such a problem to occur in the future. We will raise the price without giving a good reason. You, Mr. Klett, So far, I haven't been able to get a good reason. You ca n’t just make a nod with a association decision, at least, I hope to know the reason for making this decision. And, if you raise the price without authorization, if this kind of thing Let Golden City know ... "
"That woman knows how she can treat us."
As soon as he mentioned the Golden City, Clet's complexion went dark.
"Mr. Keller, as the vice president of the association, the reason why I personally invited you to the association to discuss this matter is because you hold 85% of the mining industry in Deep Rock, but I hope you can understand "These industries you control are actually nothing for the entire Pafield area."
"Anyway, if you don't give a reasonable explanation, I can hardly accept such a proposal from the association."
Keller stood up.
"If that's the case, then I'm sorry, but I don't think we need to talk anymore."
After saying this, Keller nodded and turned to leave.
"Please wait, Mr. Keller."
And just then, Klett's complexion was sinking.
"Since you don't agree with the association's requirements, then I can't help it. In fact, I don't want to do it, but ... at this point, you can't blame me for not giving face ...
"What do you want to do?"
Hearing this, Keller looked pale.
"If you refuse the opinion of the association, then the association has to take back all the mines under your control to ensure that they can operate normally and stably."
"The association does not have this power!"
Keller slaps his hands on the table.
"The mine in Deep Rock is the property of our Keller family. It has nothing to do with the association. Do n’t you want to steal it ?!"
"Of course we won't grab it."
Clay narrowed her small eyes, a smug smile on her face.
"The association will pay to buy the mines under the Keller family, five thousand gold coins ... What do you think of this price?"
Five thousand?
When Keller heard it, he almost stunned. The Keller family has four mines in their hands, and the total revenue is in the hundreds of thousands. Want to buy all mines with these **** of 5,000 gold coins? Don't even think about buying a mine! Have they lost their heads or have other plans?
As the head of a family, Keller naturally would not think that the association was a fool. He was silent for a moment, and then looked to the association's vice chairman with a little doubt. Clet is not a fool. He is a savvy person who can sit in the position of vice chairman in the businessmen's association. In fact, this time when he was called to the association's headquarters, Keller himself felt that something was wrong. Recently, the ore market has been very stable, and the surrounding countries have not produced any turbulence. Suddenly, all ore industries are required to raise prices by 30%. This is definitely not a trivial matter. As a business family who has been struggling in the wind and rain for so many years, Keller knows what kind of turbulence the sudden price increase will bring to the entire surrounding market, let alone an important commodity like ore.
If someone changed this sentence, Keller would definitely listen to it as a joke. He can be sure that if the lady in Gold City knew about it, all the businessmen would be bad. The lady was not a good-natured master. Each had her own way of dying, but it was definitely the worst kind of death that was committed in her hands.
But now, the Merchants' Association actually wants to raise prices? Are they eating the ambitious leopard gall? Do you really think that lady does not blame the public?
Thinking of this, Keller felt chilled back, and he immediately remembered the massacre that slammed the entire principality five years ago. Just because the nobles had united against their proposal, the lady killed almost three of the entire principality. One of the nobles, the firmness of his will to make Keller, such a money-threatening businessman, was trembling. What's more terrible is that doing this kind of thing would definitely cause turmoil in the whole country, but what everyone didn't expect was that just two months after the Holocaust, everything was back on track.
This is what businessmen such as Keller are most afraid of. They are not afraid to meet those tyrannical kings. After all, even if the impulsive fool is happy for a while, the unlucky impulse is their own. But this lady is different. She is obviously prepared for the second hand and is not afraid of any problems at all.
Now the businessmen's association really thinks they are powerful and wants to trouble that lady?
Do they really think that the lady will not have another massacre like five years ago, and then find someone to reorganize the chamber?
Where are these guys?
Keller felt things were getting more abnormal. He stared at Clete but didn't speak.
Instead, Clay smiled, then stood up.
"I also hope that Mr. Keller will think about it when he returns home. I think you will have other ideas."
There is a problem, there must be a problem!
In the face of Kleit's words, Keller was silent for a moment, then he still decided to turn away and return to the family first, and then use all the power to investigate what happened, and it was not too late to reply. But where does this guy come with so much confidence? Is he really confident, or is he bragging, or does he have any hole cards?
Keller made up his mind, then quit his intention to leave, and just as he walked to the door, Cleett's voice sounded behind him again.
"I heard that your daughter is very cute. I have always wanted to meet her, and please don't blame me."
Keller reached out his hand in front of the door and froze suddenly.
Moon branches.
In the dark night, the carriage stopped quietly by the road. The two dim oil lamps hanging in front of the trunk faintly illuminated the surrounding vegetation. Although the night is a little dark, but within the scope of the Dragon Spirit of Light, even in the dark night, there are dazzling bands of light. They condense and emit a soft brilliance, which intersects with the bright moon in the sky. It is not two eyes. Touched. Outside the car, the three guards who followed Helen had spontaneously started the vigil. The driver was lying next to the fire beside the car, wearing a blanket of animal fur, making a few snoring noises from time to time.
At the moment in the compartment, the three of them, except Rhodes, were ready to rest. Metz was very comfortable living in a carriage and fell asleep after rolling a blanket. And Li Jie is still a mercenary, leaning on the edge of the carriage, closing her eyes slightly, and not curled up like the other two. After all, if there is any unexpected situation, as a spiritual master, she must respond immediately. Row.
And Helen was tired after chatting all day. At this moment, he was also leaning on the other side, closing his eyes while closing his head, and seeing that it was a matter of time to fall asleep.
Rhodes didn't sleep. Instead, he was sorting out his surname secretly. Before, it was too hasty to do these things, but now that I have free time, Rhodes has started to sort out his surname value. After all, this is very necessary for him, and in the previous battles, Rhodes has also realized that although this body is his own, the ability contained in it is absolutely different from his previous self. You know that in reality, he can't do any quick moves to dodge and resist.
The first is power. Through the battles these days, Rhodes found that his power is higher than that of ordinary people in this world. According to the settings of the Dragon Soul Continent, the npc power in this world is generally around 4-5. This value The strength of the average person can be regarded as strong, and the strength of 6 ~ 8 can pick up a heavy two-handed sword with one hand, which can already be regarded as a monster. The strength of Rhodes is also between 6 ~ 8. Although it has not been tested with a two-handed sword, from the previous few battles, it should not be a problem.
As for the physique, Rhodes is the least worried about. The average physique is 5 ~ 7, the elves are slightly lower, 4 ~ 6, and the highest are dwarves and orcs, which are 7 ~ 9 and 7 ~ 10, respectively. Most of them are between 15-20. Considering the extent of his injuries and how he felt during the battles, Rhodes reasoned that his physique should be between 10 and 15. This is completely out of the physique that human beings should have. After all, they can still jump alive when they are thrown by the claws of a void dragon, which is very unusual.
As for dexterity, he is faster than the average person, but he does not reach the level of the elves. Considering that the speed of the elves is 10 ~ 15, the highest surname in the continent, then Rhode's speed should be based on 7 ~ 10 on the basis of ordinary people 5 ~ 6.
Will was originally the most difficult to determine the surname, but after the battle with the shadow, Rhodes can be regarded as a basis for reference. Recalling the requirements for surviving the ghost spirit attack in the game data, Rhodes's surname It should be regarded as a win, just between 8 and 9 that has just crossed the standard line. This is higher than ordinary people, but it is almost the same as the strong-willed fighters, and may be lower than those powerful NPCs, but considering that the surname will increase when the upgrade is later, Rhodes need not worry so much.
As for the induction surname, it is the only difference from the game. In the game, the improvement of the induction surname, in addition to enhancing the player's hearing to a certain extent, is to mark those dangerous beings as red dots in front of them Also prompt at the bottom of the screen. But in reality, the induction surname changed completely. After closing his eyes, Rod even "sees" everything around him, as if he has a pair of invisible black and white infrared cameras that can zoom in and out at will and zoom in and out, watching the world. In this regard, his induction is far higher than the standard of ordinary humans 3 ~ 4, but it is significantly smaller than the standard of elves 9 ~ 10. If the previous silver wolf is calculated according to the exclusion method, then it is probably 6 ~ 7 Left and right levels.
In this way, Rhode's surname also appeared to his heart.
Strength: 6 ~ 8.
Constitution: 10 ~ 15
Dexterity: 7 ~ 10
Will: 8 ~ 9
Induction: 6 ~ 7
On the whole, all surnames are higher than the original human character's default surnames. Rhode asked himself that even if the character in the game was taken out, there was no such good initial surname at tenth level, because The surname and talent are the same, they are awakened after the tenth level, and then they start to grow with the level. For Rhodes, who is known as the online game library, he was almost clear about what race and occupation originally belonged to.
After finishing the surnames, Rhodes found that his surnames surpassed humans in general, but he was slightly lower than other races in terms of single surnames. What even confuses Rhodes is that even if he sorted out the surnames, there was no way to figure out what kind of blood was mixed in his body. In general, mixed races will always inherit another common prominent surname. Take Lijie, for example, her other surnames may be similar to humans, but they are definitely angelic in terms of will and dexterity, as well as spiritual strength. But now this promotion is too average. Except for a little exaggerated constitution, any other characteristics are obviously beyond human but have not reached the original surname of other races. What made Rhodes secretly surprised was that this was the family name before the awakening. If his bloodline really awakened, these family names would increase by at least half.
How can there be such a monster race in this world, and if so, the player has not broken his head yet?
Rhodes is not without a few skeptics. For example, the blood-sucking species is quite abnormal at night, especially at the full moon, not to mention the demons and angels. However, they all have their own limitations. If they have the blood of these races, there should be fluctuations and changes under the influence of the environment and day and night. However, their surnames are very stable and have no fluctuations.
What bloodline is this?
Rhodes thought for a while, but still couldn't figure out the answer, so he shook his head helplessly. In any case, the bloodline is stable and there will be no ups and downs. Otherwise, if it is a half-angel or half-demon, when you go to the wrong place and the surname drops by half, then you have nowhere to cry.
Thinking of this, Rhode closed his eyes and planned to rest, but he had just closed his eyes, but his expression moved.
"rustle!"
The faint sound coming from the grass, mixed with the night wind, reached his ears.
