Selena heated up some vegetable soup, put it on the dining table, and sat down opposite Suldak.

Suldak asked while eating: "How is the town recently? Is there any conflict between immigrants and aborigines?"

Selena held a water glass in both hands, and said to Suldak: "Everything is fine, I didn't expect that Mrs. Luna is also a person with some tricks. She punished a group of immigrants in the town a few days ago, so that They became more honest, not only maintaining the law and order of the town, but also appeasing the emotions of many aborigines in the town."

Suldak didn't expect Mrs. Luna to have some management skills, so he said in surprise:

"At the beginning, I only thought that she could stabilize the situation in Dodan Town, and it would be fine until the new mayor came to Dodan Town. I didn't expect that she would manage Dodan Town well. What I need is a relatively stable town."

Then he asked again:

"I asked you to pay attention to the trading house, how about it? What have you found these days?"

"Wilkes Trading Company has almost monopolized most of the big transactions in the town." Selena paused after speaking, and then asked Suldak: "Didn't you say that nobles can be exempted from taxes?"

Suldak ate up the food on the plate in front of him, wiped his mouth with a napkin, and said casually: "That is the land tax and population tax in the territory. Large-scale commercial transactions still need to pay taxes. I will see you tomorrow." See Manager Anthony of the Trading House."

There is a nice marble bathtub in the bathroom of the small building, and Surdak is lying in the bathtub filled with hot water.

The head rested on the edge of the bathtub, the warm water rippled slightly, the body relaxed, and fell asleep unconsciously.

When he woke up again, he found himself lying on a big soft bed, covered with a dry quilt.

Selena next to him was resting on his arm, her long blond hair spread out, covering her charming face, her breathing was light, her body was curled up, holding one of his arms like a cat.

The curtains were drawn in the room, and owls were cooing outside the window.

Suldak closed his eyes again and immersed himself in the sea of ​​spiritual consciousness. The magic perception touched the magic elements in the surrounding air. As the perception spread a little bit, he seemed to be able to clearly feel some of the furnishings in the room.

As the perception spreads outward, the wonderful feeling continues to spread.

He could even feel a vase half filled with water on the coffee table in the empty living room, and a golden sunflower in the vase.

Lying on the bed in the next room was Signa, but she didn't seem to have covered her quilt properly, with one calf exposed.

Nika lived in the attic. She didn't seem to be asleep yet. She sat on the bed with her hands crossed over her knees and looked up at the stars in the night sky through the attic window.

He continued to spread his perception outwards, wanting to understand the world outside the house, but felt that the spiritual force in the sea of ​​spiritual consciousness could not sustain this kind of perception diffusion. After a burst of dizziness, Suldak fell into a deep sleep again past.

At the moment when he fell asleep, the night seemed to wrap him and Selena like a big gentle hand.

The spiritual power that had been exhausted was quickly nourished at this moment.

……

Suldak felt like he had a long, long dream, in which he seemed to be in a sea of ​​silence.

The sun shines through the sea and turns into beams of light shining into the sea.

He has no five senses, and in this strange environment, he doesn't feel the slightest fear...

When Suldak woke up from his dream, the sky was completely bright, and a beam of sunlight came in through the gap in the curtains, and the Yiren beside the pillow had long since disappeared.

There was a neat stack of clothes on the bed, Suerdak grabbed his hair and sat up from the bed energetically.

He jumped out of the bed with bare feet, looked at his hands, let the power of the holy light condense two flames in the palm of his hands, closed his eyes and focused on letting the perception spread outwards, at this moment, although his eyes were closed, but he suddenly I feel like the whole world has become more alive.

……

There is only one trading firm in the town, and this trading firm basically monopolizes all the business of Warcraft materials in the town.

This trading house has a very famous name - 'Wilkes Trading House'

Dodan Town is a frontier town in the area occupied by the Grimm Empire on the White Forest plane. To the north of the town is a vast Invercargill Warcraft Forest.

There used to be several hotels in the town that specialized in hosting adventure groups.

The adventure group that came to the town basically came for the rich resources of monsters in the Invercargill Monster Forest. As long as they were on the edge of the forest, it was possible to hunt some monsters.

The adventure group traveled through the planes and came to Dodan Town. Of course, they would not leave after staying here for ten and a half months. They hunted some monsters in the monster forest. The precious monster materials will be kept with them. Low-level Warcraft materials such as leather will be sold to local trading houses.

The trading firm in Dodan town is buying these monster materials. In addition to monster materials, magic metal mines and magic herbs are also within their business scope.

It can be said that some of the wealth brought by these adventure groups feeds the entire town of Dodan.

However, when this part of the profit was swallowed up by the only trading firm in Dodan Town, in fact, the financial revenue of Dodan Town continued to decline. In order to avoid affecting his own interests, Mayor Marko secretly contacted some slave traders , using the power in his hands to support slave traders to do some slave business.

It is said that this trading firm has the backing support of Wilkes City councilors. It seems that the owner of the firm is afraid that others will not know about this relationship, and some inside information can be clearly learned from the name of the firm...

Suldak walked into the trading house with Andrew and the two cavalry squadron leaders.

Now that the beast tide is approaching, the trading firm seems a bit depressed, there are almost no adventure groups doing business in the hall, only some locals standing in line in front of the food sales area.

Suldak learned from the adventure union in the morning that there is no adventure group left in the town, and even a locally formed adventure group left Dodan last week, and they will go to the Bailin plane Where to look for opportunities to make money in the South of China.

When the waiter at the door saw Suerdak coming in, he immediately greeted him, and asked his companion to inform the manager of the firm, Anthony.

The waiter didn't know Suldak, but he saw two cavalrymen wearing heavy armor behind him, and beside him was a constructed warrior with a noble badge on his chest. Even if he had never seen Suldak, think a little One can guess his identity.

"Good morning, Honorable Commander!" The waiter looked polite, standing beside Suldak asked him, "Is there anything I can do for you?"

Suldak walked into the trading house and went directly to the area where the cloth was sold. The shelves here were full of bundles of linen cloth, as well as some tarpaulin and felt, but the high-grade silk and magicweave cloth were not seen.

Suldak said to the waiter: "I need fifty felt tents, five hundred quilts and five hundred sets of thick cotton clothes. Please list the details and prices for me here. Can I get the goods before noon? ?”

Before the waiter could speak, he heard someone greeting Suldak at the stairs:

"Commander Suldak, welcome to come!"

As he said that, Manager Anthony walked over from the stairs quickly, and two waiters followed behind him, holding the account book in their arms, showing a very busy look.

The waiter next to him told Manager Anthony about Suldak's needs.

Manager Anthony was stunned, then he seemed to have thought of something, stared at Suldak with a cloudy expression, and asked him: "Master Commander, the supplies you purchased are probably not for the soldiers of the garrison, are they?"

Suldak also wanted to get the goods quickly, and completed the deal with three young natives of the Dakuni tribe before noon.

Unexpectedly, Manager Anthony did not prepare these goods readily, but asked him with a straight face who he was trading with.

Suldak frowned and asked Manager Anthony: "Is there any question?"

"Until the balance of the war supplies owed by the city defense team is settled, the commercial bank will not accept the business in the town." Manager Anthony didn't think much, and refused.

After finishing speaking, he smiled apologetically at Suldak.

It's just that the smile is a little frivolous.

"Are you talking to me?" Suldak asked with some irony.

It was only now that he understood that the rules of conduct of the trading firm in Dodan Town, even the town's military and political chiefs were completely ignored.

"What? Didn't you hear clearly? Or was your ear injured?" Manager Anthony showed a sneer on his face, and then he asked the waiter next to him: "...Could it be that I didn't speak clearly enough?"

The two waiters quickly shook their heads vigorously, and echoed: "Every word you said is very clear, Manager Anthony."

Manager Anthony nodded in satisfaction, turned his head and looked at Suldak without saying a word, as if he wanted to just watch him leave.

Feeling that something was going to happen here, some mercenaries from the firm's armed group hurried over and surrounded Manager Anthony.

Suldak rubbed his forehead. He didn't expect such a situation at all. He originally wanted to slowly rectify the trading houses in Dodan Town, but he didn't expect such a big problem to come out now.

His eyes turned cold, and he said to Manager Anthony and the others: "Since you told me on behalf of the trading house that you don't want to make any transactions with the garrison in Dodan Town until the debt in Dodan Town is paid off", then I have nothing to say. It can be said, but the arrears are owed by Mayor Marko, and it doesn’t matter if this lawsuit reaches Wilkes City, it will never be repaid by our garrison.”

He raised his voice a little higher and said: "But your behavior gives me reason to suspect that you deliberately hoarded supplies before the beast horde, disrupted the market in Dodan Town, and destroyed the unity of Dodan Town. The unity of Dan Town, I can officially inform you now that from now on, the Wilkes Trading Company will be closed down indefinitely."

Chapter 735 Battle of the Firm

A team of cavalry from the garrison camp was fully armed and rode ancient Bolai horses through the lively market. Pedestrians on the street immediately gave way to both sides of the street to make way for the cavalry. The metal armor reflected a dazzling light under the scorching sun. , The knight's spear on the saddle carried a chilling air.

The residents of the town only saw this team of cavalry stop in front of the trading house and confront a group of mercenaries at the entrance of the trading house.

These mercenaries are armed groups formed by the trading firm for many years. They are usually responsible for the security of the firm. When the goods of the trading firm are transported to Wilkes City, they are also responsible for escorting them.

The mercenaries are all hired by the boss of the trading firm from the mercenary guild. Every mercenary has the strength of a first-rank warrior. They are usually arrogant in Dodan Town, and almost no one dares to mess with the armed group of the trading firm. Group of people.

More than half of the mercenaries in the armed regiment have magic-weave constructs in bulk. This kind of magic-weave construct can only enhance a specific ability, which is far less balanced than the complete set of magic-weave constructs for knights. There is a big gap between the strength and weakness of the magic pattern structure, and the value is also very different from a dozen magic spar to dozens of magic spar.

The weapons in hand are even more varied, all kinds of long-handled weapons, war spears, axes, clubs, swords, war hammers, flails, longbows, and daggers.

It was such a group of mercenaries that surrounded the trading firm tightly, preventing the cavalry from the garrison camp from approaching.

Manager Anthony stared at Surdak with a cold face, and said, "Do you really need to make this matter so rigid?"

He pursed his lips with a ridiculous sense of superiority on his face.

Standing in the lobby of the trading house with a posture of winning, he looked at Suldak in front of him.

Six mercenaries strode out from behind Manager Anthony, surrounded Surdak and the two cavalry squadron leaders, and there were even mercenaries guarding every door of the business.

"All irrelevant people, please leave the trading house." A squadron leader beside Suldak shouted.

There weren't many customers in the hall of the trading firm. Seeing the tension inside and outside the hall, they immediately stopped trading and rushed to leave this place of right and wrong.

For a while, there was chaos in the firm.

When Manager Anthony saw the customers leaving the firm in disorder, the last smile on his face cooled down.

He said with a dark face:

"It's hard for me to do this. Originally, our trading firm and the Commander did not offend each other, but now you are openly challenging the bottom line of our trading firm. I would like to ask why you closed down the trading firm?"

"Haven't I just said enough?"

Suldak turned around and glanced outside the door, then walked out of the firm.

Six mercenaries wearing half-body magic-weave outfits stopped in front of Suldak, four with swords and shields in their hands, and two with spears in their hands, blocking the way in front of Suldak.

……

"Irrelevant people, please get out of the way!"

The cavalry squadron leader scolded these mercenaries.

At this moment, on the street outside the trading house, a cavalry squadron leader also shouted: "All dismount!"

The sound of the armor rubbing against each other was extremely ear-piercing.

The street outside the business house was full of heavily armed heavy cavalry, but instead of riding horses and holding knight spears, they dismounted and lined up one after another, holding knight long swords and knight light shields, and quickly lined up.

A squadron leader giving orders:

"Each team of cavalry prepares to...advance!"

The sound of neat and consistent footsteps, like the slow sound of war drums, knocked into the hearts of the onlookers one after another.

'Hoo! '

All the cavalry drew out the long swords of the knights, appearing very imposing.

The expressions on the faces of the mercenaries guarding the door of the business also became tense. Their shoulders were shoulder to shoulder, and they pointed their weapons at the slowly approaching cavalry. The temporary human wall was also aimed at the cavalry. They bumped away.

……

A faint halo of power lit up under Suldak's feet. Although he was not wearing a magic pattern structure, or even any heavy armor, the aura of a knight had already emanated from him.

He stared at the mercenaries in front of him.

The magical halos flashed on the magic pattern structures on these mercenaries, and the weapons in their hands pointed directly at Suldak.

Suldak glanced down at the noble badge on his chest, and walked towards the door of the trading house.

A mercenary stopped in front of Suldak, reached out to hold his shoulder, and smiled at him in a joking tone: "Commander, if I were you, I wouldn't be walking out of the trade right now." The business..."

Before he finished speaking, the sharp sword that had been turning into white light shot in from outside the door.

With a "poof", it inserted into the mercenary's arm.

The tip of the arrow protruded from the other end of the arm, and the tail feathers of the fine steel arrow were still trembling.

The mercenary looked at his arm with an unbelievable gaze, and let out a scream.

He stared at the door of the trading house hall, but did not see the archer outside, and the other three mercenaries also looked towards the door in horror.

Seeing that there was no one behind them, two mercenaries held round shields and guarded the direction of the door.

Several mercenaries looked at Surdak again, trying to stop him.

The wounded mercenary clutched his injured arm, strode out of the hall of the firm, and ran outside to look for the archer who shot his arm through.

Suldak stepped forward.

Another mercenary stopped in front of him again, he was a little nervous, and touched the long sword at his waist with his right hand.

The moment he drew his sword, an arrow flashed through the door again. This arrow seemed to appear in front of the mercenary out of thin air, and shot through the wrist where he drew the sword.

The two mercenaries standing with shields didn't even see where the fine steel arrow came from.
