Lord of Riding and Slashing

Chapter 11 - crisis



   Nord took a deep breath, looked at the smiling fat man in front of him, and slowly said: “Yes, 2,000 catties of grain, plus 20 axes and 20 iron picks.”

After Ollie heard Nord’s promise, his face was filled with joy from his heart, and he secretly felt that he was indeed a famous prodigal in the city of Veron. He was generous in his shots, without bargaining, and looked like a fool. ! Thinking in my mind, the calculations in my heart are not slow, and Oli figured out the price as soon as his eyes rolled.

   “The total price of 2000 catties of grain is 10 gold coins, an axe is 10 silver coins, 20 axes and 20 iron picks cost 4 gold coins, a total of 14 gold coins, right? Viscount Nord.”

   “Yes, but I still have one request. I didn’t prepare a carriage for so much food, Viscount Ollie, you want to give me two carriages.”

   “That’s not good, Viscount Nord, the carriage requires at least 30 silver coins…”

   Even though Olly made a lot of money in this transaction, Olly’s first reaction was to refuse it when he heard Nord’s request. Even if it was a little profit, Olly wanted to lose it from his hands.

  Nord looked at Ollie with a composure and did not speak, and stared at Ollie quietly. Ollie sighed, as if he had cut a piece of meat from him, and his heart was so painful that he commanded Barry, the housekeeper next to him.

   “Go and pull out the carriage from the warehouse, and also prepare the food and tools for Viscount Nord.”

   Nord twitched the corners of his mouth and smiled slightly, not to let him be too smug, how could he get a little blood. Nord motioned to Abel to lead the people to deal with the goods with Ollie’s butler, and then said goodbye to Ollie.

   “Viscount Ollie, I am in a hurry this time, so I won’t go to your castle. I will go to the market again and visit again when I have a chance.”

   “Viscount Nord, it’s because I didn’t entertain you well. Then you go to the market first. I will let the butler arrange the goods.”

   After a few polite conversations, the two left separately, and Nord took the rest of the people and strolled around the market.

   “Master Nord, this is the shop of the Love caravan. I rescued their caravan from the robbers once, so I have some friendship with their caravan owner, and every year their caravan comes to our village to buy furs.”

   was talking, only to see a group of people coming back outside the shop, carrying large and small packages of goods, looking like a dusty. The leader, who was about forty years old, had a beard on his mouth, and was wearing black cotton armor with a long sword slung around his waist. The people behind him were armed with short weapons. The middle-aged man saw Lehman and waved quickly.

   “Lehman Brothers, long time no see, why are you here.”

   “Brother Love, I followed the lord to buy food. This is our lord, Viscount Nord Isaac.”

   “Hello Lord Nord, I am Love, the steward of Warren Caravan. Our caravan is doing some fur business in the area, you guys…”

   Love hurriedly saluted Nord after hearing that Nord was a nobleman, and when he heard that Nord and others were coming to buy food, his expression was a bit hesitant, and he stopped talking.

   Nord and Lehman looked at each other. Nord didn’t know what abacus was in Love’s heart, and motioned Lehman to probe Love.

   Lehman still knows Love well. This is a bold man. He knows the story. Every time he goes all the way to the village to buy furs, he usually doesn’t make much money at such a long distance. Seeing that Love hesitated a little, Lehman took the initiative to ask.

   “Brother Love, do you have anything to say? Lord Nord is a benevolent lord, this time he is here to help our village buy food.”

   Love glanced at Nord, and then he felt as if he had made some decision.

“Master Nord, Christenburg’s grain is not easy to buy. The Christen family monopolizes the grain trade here, and I heard that the Christen family has also colluded with robbers outside the city. I guess you buy this time. There is still a lot of food. I just saw Bill, the leader of the Krison family’s guard, riding out of the city with a few people outside the market. You have to be careful on the way.”

   Nord became heavy on hearing the news, thanked Love, and promised Love to come to him if he encountered any trouble, and then stood at the gate of the market, waiting for Abel’s arrival.

   Still haven’t adapted to this era! , Nord sighed heavily. I thought that people in this era are relatively simple, maybe a little clever, but I didn’t expect it to be so cruel. I was still doing business with a smile just now. When I turned my face, I didn’t take people. Spit out bones.

   Not right! Calculated in terms of time, before Nord saw Ollie, his people had already begun to leave the city. He planned to eat black in the first place. Nord gritted his teeth and hated that sooner or later he would settle the account with him. NS.

   Lehman walked up to Nord and reported to Nord about his inquiries with Love.

  ”Brother Love said that he had just seen five cavalry soldiers with Bill. Only Bill was wearing chain mail. The others were wearing sleeveless leather armor. They only carried long swords.”

Nord breathed a sigh in his heart, there should be no knights, and there should be no heavy knights with full plate armor, so there is still a chance, plus the people outside the city, there are probably 20 people, not without The force of World War I, when Abel and the others came back, they set off immediately, without giving them time to prepare.

   Nord turned his head to Lehman and said: “We may have a fierce battle later, are you afraid of UU reading www.uukanshu.com?”

   Lehman smiled freely.

“Every time we enter the mountain, we will die in nine deaths. We have been prepared for a long time. Every citizen of the Amon Mountains is not afraid to fight. As long as we can be buried in the mountain after death, we will be with the will of the mountain. “

Lehman raised the one-handed sword in his hand, facing Nord and the rest of the hunters, confidently said: “Who lives and who died has asked me the sword in my hand to know, brothers, no one can take it from us. Life-saving food! Lord Nord, I will protect your safety with my life!”

  The hunters were all excited, and they took up the weapons in their hands and expressed their determination to Nord.

   “Master Nord, I will show them. The hunting bow in my hand is not good to be bullied!”

   “Master Nord, as long as we are here, no one can hurt you!”

   “Let those people see how good we are, and if they dare to grab our food, they will get their lives in exchange!”

Nod feels the courage of the audience, and his heart is full of pride, and said to everyone: “We meet on a narrow road and the brave wins. We have no retreat. I don’t need to say more about the importance of this batch of food. The relatives in the village are still waiting for your good news. , Do you have the heart to let them down?”

   “We are not without resistance. I will also take the long sword in my hand and fight with you. When the food arrives, I will leave the city immediately. Be vigilant at all times on the road and be careful to be ambushed by them.”

   “Lehman, I accept your orders as their captain, arrange for them to fight, and obey my command.”

   Just then, Abel arrived with two traveling horse-drawn carriages. The flatbed carriage was filled with bags of grain, and there were axes and iron picks on both sides of the carriage.

   After Nord asked Abel about the goods, he signaled everyone to leave immediately.
