Xufeng naturally refused. Firstly, being the lord of the city is responsible. If he becomes the lord of Kaili City, he must stay in Kaili City and help the residents of Kaili City seek benefits.

However, he didn't come here to help the NPC in the play to seek any benefits, but to complete the reward task.

Secondly, as a dragon slayer, he was comparable to a king, so how could he stay in a small city.

However, given the geographical location of Carlyle City, the new Lord of Carlyle City will naturally be his own people.

What's more, according to Xufeng's analysis, Saruman, the white-robed mage, would not send his students to Kayle City for no reason. Carlyle City.

After discussing with Xuedi, Xufeng decided on the choice of the current owner of Carlyle City.

That is the hammer.

When Xufeng announced this decision, Tie Hammer was stunned.

"Me?" Iron Hammer asked in astonishment: "Are you making a mistake? How can I be the lord of the city? Apart from blacksmithing and fighting, I don't know anything else! Besides, I have a little bit for Kailei City. I'm not familiar with it, if you let me be the city lord, everyone will be dissatisfied!"

Xufeng smiled faintly: "You are my dragon slayer's woman, who dares to disobey you?"

Iron Hammer blushed instantly.

Xufeng continued: "Besides, Kaile City is building a waterwheel project, which is a very good opportunity. I plan to develop this place into a new machinery factory, and you are proficient in forging, so here is a It’s best if you manage it.”

Iron Hammer thought for a while, "That's true, but if I'm alone, many things will be difficult to handle."

Xufeng said with a smile: "I will leave you a helper, Mr. Yang!"

Yang Gong said bitterly again: "Do you want me to be a donkey?"

Iron Hammer sneered: "With the waterwheel, who needs you? I just need a trustworthy person to help me pass orders and supervise the progress of the project."

Yang Gongzai said quickly: "Say it earlier! I have no problem with this kind of work!"

Chapter 1438 Top Luxury

"In addition," Xufeng continued, "I plan to hire Earl William and his knights to protect this place. I don't know what Earl William wants?"

Earl William quickly said: "Master Dragon Slayer, your order is our honor! Don't say that you are hired! As long as you give the order, we will always be stationed in Kailye City to protect Kailye City."

Xufeng smiled and said: "That's great, but the money that should be given is still to be given. How much did the Lord Carlyle give you before?"

Earl William said with embarrassment: "Actually, we haven't got the money yet, we just signed an agreement with the Lord Carlyle."

Hammer asked, "What agreement?"

Earl William said helplessly: "The agreement stipulates that the Lord Carlyle will pay us 5 gold coins only if we capture Anduin City within a month."

Iron Hammer laughed and said, "This Lord Carlyle really knows how to play with empty promises!"

Xufeng asked: "Your knight army has more than 800 people?"

"Yes."

"More than 800 people share 5 gold coins, and on average, a knight only gets more than 60 gold coins." Xufeng said with a cold smile: "And this Lord Carlyle can earn 100 million gold coins in one transaction, this guy is really greedy !"

Earl William sighed, "Master Dragon Slayer, you don't know something. In the past ten years, the relationship between the countries of the China-Earth Alliance has already fallen apart. There is no king in the country, and there is no friendship between cities. We knights , in order to survive, we have to come out to do mercenary work, let alone a knight can get more than 60 gold coins, even if we can get 10 or 20 gold coins, we will do it. Of course! It’s different now, with Lord Dragon Slayer, we have hope and support in our hearts, even if Lord Dragon Slayer doesn't give us anything, as long as we can have enough food, we are willing to follow Lord Dragon Slayer and do things for Lord Dragon Slayer!"

Xufeng smiled and said: "For me, I will naturally let you get the best rewards. Didn't the previous city lord only give you more than 60 gold coins each month? I will give you 5 times the increase, each 300 gold coins per month! In addition, as the head of the Knights, you can get 500 gold coins every month."

Earl William's eyes widened immediately, "This! Isn't this appropriate? My lord, if each person pays 300 gold coins per month, that's 24 gold coins!"

Xufeng smiled faintly: "Don't worry, I can afford it."

Earl William said gratefully: "They are all dragon slayers, but there are too many, too many."

Hill said with a smile: "My lord, it was actually given by the dragon slayer, so you don't have to be polite. In addition, we don't want the 20 gold coins from Anduin before. After all, the lord of Carlyle died, and We didn’t do anything on the waterwheel project, so we shouldn’t take the money.”

Xufeng asked with a smile: "If you lose 20 out of thin air, will your heart be balanced?"

Hill smiled and said, "Of course I wouldn't be balanced before, but it's different now. Now the Lord Carlyle belongs to Lord Dragon Slayer, how can we ask Lord Dragon Slayer for money?"

Xufeng said lightly: "Not only will I give you 20, but I will also give you an additional 30."

Hilton was taken aback, "Master Dragon Slayer, did I hear you right?"

Xufeng smiled and said: "You heard me right. 20 plus 30, the total is 50. If, the 50 gold coins are not for you alone, but to help you develop Anduin City into a city on this river." The most prosperous water transportation city. In the future, Carlyle City will focus on manufacturing, and your city of Anduin will focus on trade and transportation, so that your two cities can complement each other's advantages."

Hill said excitedly: "Thank you, Dragon Slayer! You not only solved the contract problem between our Anduin City and Kaili City, but also helped us point out the direction of development! Thank you very much!"

Xufeng said with a smile: "Well, you're welcome, I think you'll have to stay here for a while, because I need to get the money, Earl William, the hobbit messenger should still be in Kerry, right?"

"Yes." Earl William said hastily: "In fact, he drinks in the Carlyle Bar every day and doesn't ask about anything, not even the progress of the waterwheel. Sometimes I really doubt, Hobbit Do people lack a string in their brains?"

Xufeng smiled lightly: "That's not true, a hobbit I know is very good. Let's go, take me to meet that guy first."

"Yes."

Earl William immediately led the way and took Xufeng and others to Carlyle Bar.

At this time, the bar was very lively, the sound of music, dancing, singing, and the sound of interlacing wine glasses were all together, shaking people's eardrums rumbling.

Every guest was busy enjoying their own fine wine, completely unaware that Xu Feng and others entered the bar.

Among them was an apparently short hobbit, standing on the table holding a wine glass bigger than his head, and drank it down in one gulp.

The people around him cheered excitedly and slapped the table desperately.

Immediately after the hobbit drank a glass, he threw out a large handful of gold coins happily, and the bartender immediately filled his wine glass, while the others bent down desperately to grab the gold coins on the ground.

There were two people fighting for gold coins, and the whole scene was chaotic.

Earl William frowned, and shouted loudly: "Stop! The dragon slayer is here!"

But his roar had no effect at all, and everyone only had wine and money in their eyes.

Earl William drew out his long sword angrily, and with a wave of his hand, he chopped off a corner of the drinking table occupied by the hobbit.

This trick really worked, the drinkers present immediately sobered up a lot, they all quieted down and stepped aside.

The hobbit was drunk and said with a smile: "Who am I? There is no good wine, just make do with it, oh yes, Lord Earl William, do you want some Chinese cigarettes?"

As he spoke, the hobbit took out a cigarette case made of kraft paper from his pocket, and opened it to Earl William.

There are 20 cigarettes neatly stacked inside, with white cigarette paper and golden filter tips, and the appearance looks exactly the same as real cigarettes.

Of course, cigarettes in Middle-earth are cured with tobacco, so they are naturally easier to smoke, and of course they are more expensive.

A whole bundle of unprocessed Shire tobacco only costs 100 gold coins, and it can be smoked for at least a month.
