Captain Mino smiled wryly and said, "Fortunately, Lord Dragon Slayer has already defeated Kailye City. If Kailyn City attacks now, we really have no choice but to surrender."
Xu Feng laughed.
The instant noodles that have been stored for 12 years, even if soaked in olive oil layer by layer, have already deteriorated to the point where they cannot be eaten.
Not to mention these knights, even Xufeng, a dragon slayer, would get acute gastroenteritis after eating it.
"Don't worry, they have nothing serious, just ahem, they're just not used to this kind of high-end food." Xufeng took out an antidote pill and handed it to the waiter beside him, "Go, make a big pot of water, put the pill in the Dissolve it in it, and give each of them a bowl to drink."
"Yes."
The waiter hurried away with the antidote pills, and after a while, bowls of antidote soup were served.
After drinking the antidote soup, the knights' abdominal pain disappeared immediately.
"Master Dragon Slayer! You saved our lives again!"
"We have nothing to repay, we can only follow to the death!"
"Nothing in return! Follow to the death!" The knights shouted excitedly.
Xufeng smiled and waved her hands, "It's nothing, it's nothing, come on, keep eating and drinking!"
"Yes!"
After the Fangwu incident, the appetites of the knights were generally not high, but Xufeng, Tiehammer and Yang Gongzai ate with relish.
While eating, Xufeng asked the female city lord Hill about the reason for the war between the two cities.
The female city lord Hill said immediately: "Actually, we used to be very harmonious with Kailye City, but since my father's generation, the friction between the two cities has increased significantly."
"The city of Carlyle belongs to the kingdom of Arnor, and our city of Anduin belongs to the kingdom of Tudor."
"Historically speaking, the city of Carlyle came into existence first, and then the city of Anduin came into existence several hundred years later. At least half of the residents of Anduin City came from the city of Carlyle."
"At that time, there were rumors that the Lord of the Lord Sauron's Lord of the Rings fell into the Anduin River, and whoever could find the Lord of the Rings would be able to rule the entire Middle-earth world. After entering Kayle City, when the population of Kayle City was full, people built a new city on the other side of Kayle City, which is now Anduin City."
"At the beginning, everyone had the idea of looking for the Supreme Lord of the Rings, but gradually, everyone realized that things like the Supreme Lord of the Rings are not so easy to find, and even if they are found, they are not easy to find. Maybe ruling the world with a single ring will only arouse Sauron's vigilance, and then he will be hunted down by the ring kings."
"So, gradually, the two cities also settled down. Those who should leave have left, and the rest of them will take root here and make their livings in river transportation and fishing."
"At that time, neither of the two towns had a city lord. Because of geographical relations, Carlyle City belonged to the Kingdom of Arno, while Anduin City belonged to the Kingdom of Tudor."
"The Kingdom of Arno and the Kingdom of Tudor were originally a family, but the king of Arno was ambushed by half-orcs and died, and his only heir was also missing. Therefore, the Kingdom of Arno is now in chaos, although there is a prime minister in power , but each city is basically a form of self-government.”
"As early as hundreds of years ago, the Tudor Kingdom had no king. The only one who could inherit the Tudor king's power was the king of Arno. He held it in his hands, so this situation has continued until now."
"We, Anduin City, originally looked across the wide Anduin River from Carlyle City, and we didn't target each other. However, some time ago, a special envoy from the Shire region came. Capital, buy a water area, and build a car on this water area."
"A car?" Xufeng was puzzled.
After hearing it now, Xufeng finally heard something related to the main plot, but, building a car on water?What does it mean?
The female city lord Hill shrugged, "I don't know too well, you know, the hobbits speak very quickly, they should be talking about the car, I simply read the blueprint, it is a huge wheel."
The female city lord Hill made gestures while talking.
Xufeng suddenly realized, "Oh, the waterwheel!"
The female city lord immediately said: "Yes, yes, yes! That's the word! You really deserve to be the dragon slayer! The knowledge is too profound!"
Xufeng smiled wryly.
The drawings of the waterwheel were drawn by Lao Tzu for Bilbo 70 years ago, how could Lao Tzu not know!
Chapter 1425 The Silly Son of the Landlord's Family
Originally, Xufeng felt a little strange why they were sent to this irrelevant place when the fourth stage came up, but now it seems that they can be linked.
The drawing of the waterwheel was designed by Xufeng.
The purpose is to use the Zhonghua Tobacco Factory in Shire to upgrade equipment and expand the scale.
Since there are hobbits from the Shire region who come here to find water to build waterwheels, it means that the Shire region is not too far away from here, and his Zhonghua Tobacco Factory is operating very well.
So Xufeng interrupted the female city lord's narration and asked, "How far is the Shire region from your place?"
"It's not far. If you take a carriage, you will arrive in two or three days." The female city lord Hill replied.
Xufeng nodded, which fully confirmed his guess.
"Okay, go ahead and say, that hobbit is going to build a waterwheel here, and then how did it cause conflicts between your two cities?" Xufeng asked.
The female city lord Hill sighed, "Because we are on both sides of the same river with Kayle City, so the waterwheel project can be built in Anduin City or Kayle City, the two of us The city wants to win this project. After all, the hobbits are very rich. They have made too much money from China Tobacco over the years. If they throw all their money out, they can cut off all the rivers in Middle-earth. If we If we can win this project, we will naturally get a lot of money, which is much better than our fishing and transportation businesses, and it will also create at least [-] jobs for us. If the residents have Such jobs will naturally drive consumption, and our cities will be more prosperous."
Xufeng nodded and said, "That's true, this is a relatively common way of attracting investment."
The female city lord Hill said with admiration: "Wow! Lord Dragon Slayer, what you said makes sense! You can explain this matter clearly in four simple words! It's a pity that there are too many people in our city A lot of people with no brains, they are against this project."
"At that time, my father had just passed away, and my elder brother took over as the new city lord. My elder brother was a very prestigious person. Under his mediation, our city finally had a unified voice and was willing to accept this investment project."
"However, things are not that simple. For such a good project, the city of Carlyle on the other side of the river naturally wants it very much."
"So the hobbits let us quote ourselves."
"Originally we hoped for a price of 50 gold coins, but because of the competition from Carlyle City, we lowered the price to 30 gold coins. At this time, Carlyle City sent people to negotiate, and they hoped that we could withdraw from the competition .”
Iron Hammer said with a smile: "The Lord Carlyle's face is thick enough!"
The female city lord Hill sighed, "Actually, it's not true. The city lord of Carlyle City was quite sincere at the beginning. He came to see my brother in person. He secretly discussed with my brother and said that the original sale of 50 gold coins, If we continue to compress like this, I am afraid that the two cities will not be able to earn any benefits. Why don't we take a step back and let them bid for this project, and then they will give us 20 gold coins as compensation, and they also promised to at least recruit us. 50 residents of Duin City as employees."
Yang Gong laughed again: "The lord of Kaile City is quite smart!"
"That's right." The female city lord Hill continued: "His proposal has made my brother tempted. If the competition continues, we in Anduin City may only get 20 gold coins in the end, but counting There is almost no profit for the materials and labor for building the waterwheel. But now, without doing anything, you can get 20 gold coins, which is indeed a good thing."
"Thus, the two parties secretly signed an agreement. After the agreement was signed, our city of Anduin withdrew from this competition, and the city of Carlyle raised the asking price for the hobbit to 100 million."
"Damn!" Xufeng frowned suddenly.
"Me? Damn?" The female city lord Hill looked at Xufeng in surprise, "What does this mean?"
Xufeng quickly said: "It's okay, it's okay, you continue talking."
While talking, Xufeng thought bitterly, that Hobbit, who could win a deal with 20 yuan, actually let him make 100 million!
What the hell is the stupid son of the landlord's family!
That's Laozi's Zhonghua Tobacco's money!
