The Extraordinary Earl
Chapter 225 A Red Dragon (fourth update)
Luther has always been a curious and bold guy.
So he asked: "Excuse me, why does the Mountain Eagle need gold coins?"
The Mountain Eagle looked at Luther very calmly, and then said: "A red dragon brought her cubs to a crater near Eagle Mountain to build a nest. She charged us 200,000 gold coins for protection. The king couldn't beat her, so he didn't choose to suppress her by force and sent me here."
In fact, it didn't come to find Luther specifically, because the Eagle King didn't ask about Luther's origins, so naturally he didn't know where Luther was.
The Mountain Eagle just flew north and landed when it passed the first city.
But the Mountain Eagle obviously remembered Luther, after all, their king gave an unprecedented ten snow flowers.
And the Mountain Eagles obviously also understood the value of the snow flowers, so they brought fifteen snow flowers in exchange for 200,000 gold coins.
The extra part was considered as labor fees for humans.
Luther and the other two were stunned after hearing this. A red dragon robbed a group of mountain eagles, and succeeded.
The Eagle King didn't even fight, and chose to surrender immediately.
Lawful creatures are indeed a group of rational creatures.
Then the three people of the Pompeii family felt a little worried, because Pompeii Castle had been breached by dragons many times in history.
Dragons plundered wealth and caused casualties.
Eagle Mountain is not close to Pompeii, but not far away. It is definitely within the deterrence range of a red dragon.
Now the key is whether this red dragon wants to come to the human world to rob.
Because since the rise of humans, many dragons know that robbing humans is a risky thing. Maybe they can't rob and are killed by dragons.
However, robbing humans or being killed by dragons still happens repeatedly.
It depends on the age of the dragon.
The five dragons, red dragons, blue dragons, green dragons, black dragons, and white dragons are extremely greedy and evil. They are also very irritable, irritable, and believe in their own strength.
The younger the dragon, the more eager it is to show its strength and start a war. Of course, it also causes a high mortality rate. When a five-colored dragon gets older, they will choose to rob wealth in other ways.
For example, collect protection fees.
Just like this time when the red dragon blackmailed the mountain eagle.
But this is not absolute. Whether the red dragon robs humans depends on what the red dragon thinks.
In short, the red dragon is definitely one of the most difficult creatures in the world.
By the way, because dragons constantly rob humans of gold coins, and before they die, dragons will find a secret place to bury themselves and their wealth.
So although humans continue to discover gold mines, the value of gold has been very stable and has not depreciated.
In this respect, dragons are like the banks of this world, stabilizing the value of currency.
Amen.
But worrying is worrying, and worrying is useless. Because this red dragon with a cub, since even the Eagle King chose to surrender, it is impossible to defend with Pompey's power.
Even the Libyan Count may not be able to stop such a powerful dragon.
If the other party came to collect protection fees, Luther could only accept it and pay taxes obediently.
Damn, the lord also has to pay taxes.
Terrible.
Let's not talk about these first. Luther would naturally not refuse the request of the Alpine Eagle. Let's not talk about anything else. Just talking about the last time with the snow flower, Luther should also help this group of lawful creatures.
"Okay, please wait for a day, I will go to collect gold coins." Luther picked up the snow flower on the ground and took this matter.
"Thank you, human." The Alpine Eagle said gratefully.
"You're welcome, Mr. Alpine Eagle." Luther also said.
There was no place in the castle to entertain the Alpine Eagle, so Luther could only let the Alpine Eagle stay outside the castle, and then Luther sent his father to Kaiyue City to borrow 200,000 gold coins.
In the past, my father's face was useful, and now the face of the great knight's father is even more useful.
There was no way to borrow money, because neither Luther nor his partners had any money. The 200,000 gold coins that Luther earned from selling flowers had already been spent.
Only Baron Philip still had money.
And selling Xueming flowers takes time, and distant water cannot save nearby fires. However, after Luther sent his father, he still took 15 Xueming flowers to Alice Ranch in the west of the city and asked Miss Alice to help sell the batch of Xueming flowers.
From a business perspective, Luther still made a profit from this deal.
Because 15 Xueming flowers are worth 300,000 gold coins. After deducting the 200,000 gold coins he gave to Alpine Eagle, he still made a small profit of 100,000 gold coins.
Well, for Luther, who now has a big family, 100,000 is just a small amount of money.
When Luther came to Alice Ranch, the beautiful Miss Alice was wearing a tight suit, a horse hat, riding a white purebred horse, and walking leisurely on the open pasture.
Purebred horses are a very precious breed of horses.
Purebred horses are just a concept, not a category. Because there are many types of purebred horses, such as Prussian purebred horses.
The reason why purebred horses are called purebred horses is that humans only allow them to breed with horses of the same breed.
Once mixed, they are no longer purebred horses.
Purebred horses are generally used as excellent racehorses and mounts for nobles.
Excellent hunting dogs and pet dogs are also used exclusively by nobles.
Alice's business is to bet that Pompeii will have many wealthy nobles in the future.
In fact, the money earned from this kind of business is only a small amount of money, which is not as good as real estate. At present, Miss Alice has obtained a piece of land and is under construction.
I believe that as long as Pompeii develops into a city, she will become a rich woman.
"Why do you have time to come to my place to play?" Miss Alice asked Luther as she sat on the horse without dismounting.
Lack of manners, education, and casually spreading hormones.
This is the virtue of the great baronet's eldest daughter.
Luther didn't want to get off his horse and look up at the lady, so he had no choice but to sit on the horse and communicate with her.
"I have fifteen snow flowers, can you help me sell them?" Luther took a bag from behind the horse and opened the bag to reveal ten snow flowers.
This kind of flower is Miss Alice's jewelry, and Miss Alice is very familiar with it.
"You actually got fifteen more snow flowers?" Miss Alice said jealously, her beautiful big eyes turning red.
If you can obtain unlimited snow flowers from the hands of the mountain eagle, then what other business can you do? You can become a top rich man just by selling snow flowers.
Because Alice will always remember the hundreds of snow-white flowers flying on the top of Eagle Mountain.
Too beautiful.
That is the beauty of gold.
