Become the city lord from today

In early September, the weather is getting colder and cooler, and the smell of autumn is getting stronger. The southward migration of birds begins to enter its peak period.

Migratory birds that originally breed in the north, whether they are forest birds or water birds, take advantage of the north wind to fly to the distant and warm south to overwinter.

The first batch of birds flew away from Haiyan City and rode the wind on the vast sea. People in the city wrapped up their clothes tightly and carried umbrellas with them to block the unexpected autumn rain.

It will be winter after this month, and the first snow will fall as soon as possible, and the weather will be extremely cold, especially in seaside cities, which cool down faster than inland cities, and the sea breeze will be particularly painful on the face.

At this moment, there was a ship floating on the sea, with the flag on the mast fluttering in the wind. Above it was a gray castle with buckwheat embellishments on both sides. This was undoubtedly the flag of the Flanders Empire.

That's right, Field sent someone to deliver the message. Standing on the board of the ship was the elf Jinmo. Although he was very reluctant, he had no choice but to do so.

"Wow!......"

Jin Mo looked at the port direction of Haiyan City from a distance, his expression was particularly solemn, and his green eyes took a long time to blink.

"Sir, we will reach Haiyan City soon."A knight reported that he had secretly been to Haiyan City from the Yadian Kingdom before and was familiar with the route.

Jin Mo turned around and ordered,"Get ready. When we get to the shore, we will explain our purpose to their knights."

The elf has learned her lesson well, but she doesn't want to be like the previous knights who all died on those flaming crossbows. This is not worthwhile, and it is not the purpose of her coming here.

"Yes, my lord."The knight responded immediately, turned around and went to prepare. To be honest, he also knew those crossbow arrows that would catch fire. He was still trembling in his heart. If he had known it, he would not have been able to lead the way. What

Jin Mo and the others didn't know was that at this moment, There are several figures under their boat. They are none other than the mermaid navy.

"Gululu......"

Aji continued to bubble as he breathed, and gestured,"Surround them.""

"yes."The mermaid sailors nodded.

"Bo......"

As the mermaids emerged from the water one by one, holding spears against the ships of the Flanders Empire, as long as they sailed forward, the new alloy spears would penetrate their ships. After all, they The quality of the ship is not that good

"Stop! If you continue to move forward, I cannot guarantee your safety."Aji shouted.

Jin Mo heard the sound and ran out of the cabin, ordered the knights to put down their bows and arrows, looked at the sea and said,"We are messengers from the Flanders Empire, here to deliver a message to your city lord."

Aji looked up at their flag and said in a deep voice,"You guys wait here, I'll go back and report."

"Okay, as soon as possible, it looks like it's going to rain."Jin Mo nodded.

Aji ignored him and took another sailor with him and started to return to the port of Haiyan City. The remaining sailors continued to look at the Flanders Empire and the others.

The weather at sea changed. , forty minutes later, when Aji turned back to the Flanders Empire ship, it was already raining heavily.

Jin Mo and others were particularly embarrassed on the ship. In addition to taking shelter from the rain, they also had to control the ship to move forward, because They were received by the lord of Haiyan City

"Wow!......"

Another forty minutes later, the Flanders Empire's ship docked at the port of Haiyan City. The soldiers conducted a routine inspection and impounded all the weapons of the knights.

And only Jin Mo was allowed to bring two knights into the city lord's palace, and the others had to be guarded on the boat.

There are not many knights coming from the Flanders Empire this time, only a hundred knights in total, but they are very envious of the knights of Haiyan City at the moment.

For no other reason than because they had an oversized umbrella next to them to protect them from the wind and rain in this heavy rain. It was this small detail that made the knights of the Flanders Empire envious.

When they were in the Flanders Empire, no, it should be said that they did not have this kind of treatment at any time. No matter the wind or rain, they had to stand upright, although they would be lazy a lot of the time.

Since Jin Mo was a messenger, the soldiers also gave her an umbrella, and she headed to the castle under the leadership of a group of soldiers.

Half an hour later, Jin Mo came to the castle hall and saluted respectfully,"Say hello to you, Lord City Lord."

"......"Niu Da didn't speak, just nodded.

Jin Mo nodded and said,"Sir, this is a letter from Her Majesty the Queen."

Felton on the side took the letter and checked it before handing it to Niu Da, who opened the letter and began to browse.

What was written in the letter was nothing more than the previous content, asking the other party how he would be willing to release his eldest brother.

Niu Da read the letter for a while, closed it, and said in a deep voice,"It's not impossible to release your eldest prince, but it's just......"

Jin Mo blinked his green eyes and asked,"Just what? Lord City Lord"

"You are required to pay a ransom and five thousand laborers."Niu Da said word by word.

Jin Mo was stunned for a while, but still asked politely,"How much ransom needs to be paid?

Niu made a big gesture and said seriously,"One million gold coins, or one million banknotes.""

"One million gold coins?"Jin Mo's eyes widened, and he was still muttering in his heart what exactly are banknotes?

"That's right, one million gold coins. Niu Da said without hesitation.

Jin Mo kept blinking his green eyes and asked,"Sir, are you serious?" Is one million gold coins too many?"

"Then there's no way."The cow leaned back on the chair.

"Is there no other way? We really can't afford the one million gold coins, sir, and the five thousand labor force is also a huge sum."Jin Mo wanted to try again to see if there was any room for change.

Niu Da shook his head without hesitation and said,"Since we can't reach an agreement, please come back. When are you willing to accept these conditions, you can come back."

"......"Jin Mo is very embarrassed now. He thought that although this negotiation would not go smoothly, it would not be so difficult.

Niu Da stood up and left before the other party could react. These words were all told to him by Liu Feng in advance. Only in this way could the people of the Flanders Empire really suffer.

When Jin Mo saw Niu Da leaving, she was very helpless. She couldn't make any decision, so she had to leave angrily, planning to go back to Queen Field to discuss the rights.
