048 Tower Acquisition Ambition

After discussing the allocation plan with Divo of the Silver Flame Mercenary Corps at noon, Saoya went to the Snowman City Carriage House in the afternoon and rented two war horses for half a month. And for Saoya was the Lord, the carriage house did not charge any fees this time. As long as Saoya returned the carriage, he paid the fee together.

As for the old horse he bought in Ivastide, he was sold directly to the carriage store by Saoya and exchanged 100 gold coins as a way to get on the road. After all, the old horse was taken by Saoya before, and the two of them rode together. They were so tired that they couldn't stand the high-intensity rush.

Early the next morning, before dawn, Sawyah took Felina out of the city gate. Of course, it was impossible to open the city gate in advance for the sake of them, but to go to the separate small gate of the guard camp. As a lord, there is still this little right.

After Soya brought Filina to the outer city, everyone in the Silver Flame Mercenary Group was already waiting for it in the outer city. Even as an employer, Soya was a little embarrassed.

"Lord, it is our responsibility to wait for the employer."

Divo, who walked over with two war horses, saw Soya's embarrassment, explained with a smile, handed the reins to Soya and Filina, and then gently hammered the left chest with his right hand to signal his obedience to Soya.

"But after all, you still have to wait for a long time."

Even after listening to Divo's explanation, Saoya still owed a little. Although Divo turned his body to the side and let Saoya go away, his eyes looking at Saoya were much softer.

Such inner actions like this one are really rare among nobles. Divo smiled slightly and reached out to signal Sawyer to get on the horse:

"Lord, don't worry about this little thing, just get on the road as soon as possible."

"Let's go."

Sawyer was not pretentious, and he rolled over the horse with his bag on his back, urging the horse to run a few steps to the center of the entire horse team.

It has to be said that Yin Yan is worthy of being the top mercenary group in Xueman City. At least from the configuration of each person, one horse, it can be seen that the mercenary group with good financial resources are either relying on their wealthy family or being so powerful that they can make a lot of money in every mission, while Yin Yan Mercenary Group is obviously the latter.

Originally, Saoya thought that several mages in the mercenary group would ride in a carriage. After all, in the Sky Province, mages are rare things, and middle and low-level mages generally do not have strong bodies. Later, they were the second in command of the mercenary group, and the assassin girl named Bingxuan explained to Saoya:

"Lord, don't underestimate our Silver Flame mage. Not to mention those three guys playing with fire, even those two priests can defeat a few low-level warriors in close proximity."

...

As he rode out of the city, the snow in the dawn gradually became lively. The clerks who were preparing to work in the city and the market owners who were pushing goods had already entered the city 66, waiting for the city gates to open. Several caravans preparing to go to other cities were also shouting and summoning their respective workers and guards. The farmers carrying hoes were out in groups of three or five to the farm away from the city. In the outer city area, only a dozen minutes away, Sawy witnessed the waking of the city.

When I passed by the honey wine field at around 8 o'clock in the morning, I happened to see the honey wine field open. Soya spent ten gold coins to buy each person a bottle of honey wine. The cooling has dropped a lot these days. It is obviously a good choice to warm your belly with a bottle of honey wine.

Sawyer's move also won the favor of the entire mercenary group. The overall favorability of the mercenary group increased from 25 to 31, and the mark became [knowledge, support]. Of course, 2o points in the original favorability of the 25 points was a bonus for the favorability of the lord, which could directly make the people of the entire territory have a certain impression of you.

The first half was the same as last time I went to Ivasted, but the group was obviously much faster than the caravan, and there was no danger on the way, so they rushed to the Frost Winter Outpost at noon. With the bonfire that had just been extinguished this morning, Saoya decided to make a fire and cook. Although it was delayed for half an hour compared to the plan, a hot meal undoubtedly gave Saoya more favor from the mercenaries.

In the evening, Saoya and the mercenary group arrived at the destination of today, Valsem Tower. However, the group of economically stubborn robbers were a little nervous. From a distance, they saw more than 50 people running towards Saoya from a distance. They thought that some nearby legion was going to train their troops.

Fortunately, Sawyer stopped everyone outside the range of the archer. The two sides had a tacit understanding and sent one person to meet in the middle. Sawyer sent Bing Xuan, and the Valsem robbers sent a somewhat weak girl.

Originally, Sawy was waiting nervously, but he was afraid that the other party would take action directly. As a result, Bing Xuan came back just over ten minutes later, with the robber girl following him, but he ignored everyone and just followed Bing Xuan with a red face.

"Tsk tsk, Xiao Bingxuan is going to flirt with girls again...ao!"

The person who joked was Aye, the third leader of the mercenary group. The mercenaries liked to call him Uncle Ye. As soon as they finished speaking, Bing Xuan stepped on his toes and held his feet and started to fight on the spot, which caused laughter from the mercenaries behind him.

"Tsk tsk, Uncle Ye has sucked Bing Xuan again."

Suoya learned from Uncle Ye's tone and caused another burst of laughter.

"Let's go, don't worry about stupidity, there's already helping us arrange the place."

Bing Xuan glanced at A Ye with a funny look. He was obviously a high-level warrior, but he still had to pretend to be in pain. He was obviously a guy who was so calm in normal times. Oh, he had a headache.

On the other hand, the Valsem robbers had already prepared a place for everyone, but it was one kilometer away from the tower. It was obviously not at ease with the mercenary group, and the mercenary group also had the same thoughts. Although the place was a bit simple, I didn't say much.

After leaving a few people to watch over shifts, Sawyer fell asleep deeply. This day he was tired of riding. Although he had mastered the key points of riding under the personal guidance of the carriage owner Bucholem the day before, his body was still not used to the life on the horseback.

(It's really nonsense. If this continues, do you have to learn from Mongolian cavalry to play riding and shooting?)

After complaining, Sawyer fell asleep and snoring sounds rang out in the camp.

The next morning, Suoya was still shouted before dawn. She didn't even open her eyes along the way, and she was pulled with her collar. I don't know where she got there. She yawned when she got there and found out. The one who pulled him away turned out to be the assassin girl Bingxuan!

After glanced at it, it turned out that Divo was negotiating with the Valsem robbers. Divo wanted to take the horse and leave, but the robbers fell in love with the horses of the mercenary group and wanted to force a few horses. After Soya came over, both of them stopped communicating in a tacit way and looked at each other... Bing Xuan!

Well, Bingxuan was actually sent out by Divo to recruit reinforcements, while the robber regiment leader directly ignored Soya who had not woken up. After all, Soya's low-level archers' strength is too low.

"Boss Koya, I still said the same thing. Do you think you can keep us all?"

Bing Xuan narrowed his eyes and said, although it was a question, there was a threatening chill in his tone.

"Ha," the robber named Koya chuckled and looked at Bing Xuan with disdain: "So what if you can't? Can you still run back to get reinforcements? Stop teasing, who doesn't know the famous Yin Yan, so what if you are powerful? Other mercenary groups regard you as thorns in their eyes. Who will come to avenge you? Could it be this stupid boy? Hahahaha!"

"Hmph, silly boy? He's..."

Looking at the robber collar that was laughing, Bing Xuan also sneered. Just as he was about to say something, a hand was pressed on his shoulder. When he turned around, he found that Saoya was squinting his eyes and looking at the robber collar. The haze on his face disappeared, but instead there was a sense of coldness in his flashing eyes.

"Silly boy? Are you talking about me?"

"That's right, that's to say, you, why, do the little guy want to be beaten?"

"Beat? You can try it, and then I can lead the army to encircle you in the name of intending to murder the nobles of Xueman."

Sawyer smiled at the corner of his mouth, but his tone was like the cold wind in the deep winter, which made the robber's leader tremble.

"Aristocrat? Just because of your undry breasts...wait! Are you the newly-secret Lord?"

"Oh, the news is quite well-informed." Sawy's smile became stronger, "How about it, are you planning to do it?"

"Hmph, I've admitted it today, someone is here! Let it go!"

The robbers took a few breaths of heavy breaths, but still couldn't make up their mind to kill Soya. Finally, they just snorted coldly and waved to let someone go.

"Coya, right?"

Just when Koya was about to turn around and leave, she was stopped by Sawyer.

"What, is this 'noble master' still something?"

Looking at the robber's head gritting his teeth, Sawy's smile broke out again, but this time there was no cold chill.

"After all, staying here for a night, you still have to keep the rules."

Saoya smiled and threw a small bag of gold coins at Koya. The robber obviously didn't expect Saoya to give money. She was stunned for a moment and waited for the wallet to hit his chest before she rushed to catch it with both hands.

"This is?"

"Twenty Cyputin, I remember to count the toll and accommodation fees, it should be about the same price."

Sawyer explained with a smile. In fact, according to the price of these bandits, it was already twice as much as possible. However, there would obviously be no fewer opportunities to pass by here in the future. Twenty gold coins can just dispel the robbers' anger and will not arouse the other party's greed too much. It would be better to make a good relationship than to be faced with swords next time.

"Lord Lord is a wonderful person."

After watching the robber's face turn from anger to entanglement, and even become a little embarrassed, Bing Xuan chuckled and pulled Divo, who was confused and turned away. Sawyer looked at Koya with a tangled face and left with a word, but Koya who stayed there was even more entangled.

That's it: "I'm very interested in your exhibition here, and I'm interested in investing. I want to build this place into a transit station for the three major territories, or even a distinctive commercial city. Think about it and I'll reply to me next time I come."

In fact, as the junction of the three provinces, the importance of the Valsem Tower is far more than three provinces. It is not necessary to say that the trade transactions between Xueman City and Fengjiu City are naturally popular in the mainland. From Fris downstream, the ship merchants who traveled through Xueman to Fengjiu City, and most of the merchants who led from Xueman to Rift Valley City have to pass here. They are the prototype of a commercial city. Although they are not as good as Xueman City, it is possible to develop into a transit city.

So in Sawyer's eyes, these bandits are at most economically savvy, but have no long-term vision. The robber group's lack of nature and special location at the junction of the three provinces, and it is easy to display a neutral commercial city after working hard for a few years. It is not difficult to understand that Sawyer values ​​this place so much.

Of course, it is not the time to talk about this. After all, he does not have enough money. Even if he sells it, he will not be enough. Secondly, he has to consider uncle Ba’s feelings. After all, he is still nominally in the territory under Xueman. Although these robbers are still honest, what if uncle Ba’s dislikes him and attacks directly?
