Valon: Even a supporting character can change his fate.

"You are really cruel. If I remember correctly, these people are all family soldiers that your family has spent a lot of money to raise."

Bai really didn't expect that the other party would actually say such a thing.

Wolfe is also a ruthless person. He is ruthless to others and even more ruthless to his own people.

In order to make the entire transaction more secure and foolproof, Wolfe took the initiative to ask the liches and undead to attack his caravan.

Except for his two trusted confidants, he did not let any one go, and even killed the four knights. Wolfe also did not want the goods on the carriage this time, and left them all to Bai as a gift. It can be said that he was full of sincerity.

Wolfe certainly had his own reasons for doing this.

Reducing unnecessary risks is only one part of it, the main thing is to use it to cut off the spies around you.

The family dispute is like this: Wolfe's family has accumulated huge wealth through generations of unremitting efforts. It is no exaggeration to say that they are rich enough to rival a country.

In order to get this huge fortune, Wolfe's two brothers did everything they could, and it is no exaggeration to say that they fought to the point of bloodshed.

In the past few years, because Wolfe was still young, he mainly focused on his studies, but as Wolfe grew up and showed great talent for business, he naturally became a potential competitor for the family fortune.

It was just that Wolfe, who had just reached adulthood, had an unstable foundation, and there were even stronger opponents ahead, so his two brothers did not take him too seriously.

However, even though we don't take it seriously, necessary surveillance is still necessary.

Take the current caravan for example, there are about thirty people including Wolf, four of whom were sent by his eldest brother to monitor him, six were sent by his second brother to monitor him, and the remaining dozen or so are not on the same page with him.

Over the years, he has cultivated two confidants in the gap between his two brothers, and the only business under his control is an iron mine that is monitored by the kingdom. This was the coming-of-age gift given to him by his family when he came of age.

Unexpectedly, he hit the jackpot this time and met an intelligent undead. If used properly, this would be a key step for him to overthrow his two brothers and ascend to the position of patriarch.

Since the other party has shown their sincerity, the Undead side naturally cannot afford to let them off. Bai personally takes action and kills them all except the two that Wolf said he wanted to leave behind.

On the way back, Wolfe repeatedly warned his two confidants to keep their mouths shut. No matter what others asked, there was only one answer: their caravan was attacked by bandits, the goods were robbed, and the accompanying guards were killed. Only the three of them escaped by chance.

If someone asks, how did the bandits succeed when there were four knights protecting them?

The reason was that the enemy was too cunning. They had set traps on the road in advance, catching them off guard. Moreover, their numbers were large, twice as many as theirs, and they relied on their numerical advantage to defeat them.

After sending Wolfe away and returning to the office, Bai looked at the lich standing in front of him and asked, "Do you believe him?"

"Believe."

"Ok?"

The lich's answer was clearly beyond Bai's expectations. He knew very well the lich's hatred for living people, so how could he trust a human so easily?

"For this kind of businessman, as long as there is enough profit, even if they kill their own sons and daughters, it is not a problem. Since we can provide him with what he needs, there is no reason for him not to trade with us."

"In that case."

Bai thought for a moment and said, "I will leave the two blood abominations and the skeleton soldiers to you, and I will take the five ghouls with me to explore the bitter cold land in the north first."

"Sir, will this...?"

Before the lich could finish, Bai interrupted him and said, "With my strength, those barbarians in the north can't do anything to me. Listen carefully. If that human trades with us honestly, it will be fine. If he dares to play any tricks, don't hesitate, kill him directly, then withdraw all your troops from this town and come to the north to find me."

"Yes, my lord."

That night, Bai led the zombies and headed north.

As for Wolfe, it was inevitable that he would be ridiculed by his two brothers when he returned. Several elderly people in charge of the family also began to doubt Wolfe's ability.

However, it was a blessing in disguise that Wolfe's heavy losses this time made him gradually fade out of the center of the vortex, and the spies around him were gradually withdrawn, which made it easier for Wolfe to act.

After some maneuvering, Wolfe successfully made some slight changes to the output of the iron ore.

Looking at the iron ore that filled three carriages, Wolfe did not stop at all and quickly organized people to march towards the undead.

Of course, Wolf did not forget to bring a blacksmith for the undead, but this blacksmith must not be recruited nearby, otherwise he would never come back, and there was a high probability that unnecessary suspicion would be aroused.

For this reason, Wolfe brought some extra silver coins, and when the caravan was halfway through its journey, he recruited a blacksmith in every other town.

In order to minimize the impact as much as possible, Wolfe also specifically recruited blacksmiths who were still single. It would be even better if there were single men who could feed the whole family.

Because such a carefree person will not attract much attention even if he disappears. At most, some people will think that he has found a better living environment and moved.

These single blacksmiths had no worries of their own, and under the temptation of Wolfe's huge sum of money, they naturally followed the convoy happily.

As time passed, the convoy soon arrived at the town where the undead lived.

Bai had already left, and this time only the lich was there to receive Wolf.

Wolfe did not say much about this, but showed the blacksmith and three carts full of iron ore to the lich to prove that he did not deceive the other party.

At this time, the blacksmiths who were recruited halfway also realized that they were being pushed into a fire pit, but it was too late to run away now. Everywhere they looked were skeleton soldiers and zombies.

There were two brave blacksmiths who wanted to escape, but one of them was frozen into an ice sculpture by the lich, and the remaining one immediately became obedient.

Since Bai Gang had just gone to a bitterly cold place, the main force had not caught up yet, so naturally there was no solid ice in exchange, but that didn't matter.

Although there was no solid ice, the undead looted several villages and captured towns, so they naturally had a large amount of silver and gold coins.

This money is not as useful to the undead as flesh and blood, but it would be a pity to just throw it away. Now it can be given to Wolfe.

Wolfe was naturally very happy to help the undead solve this troublesome problem.

After a conversation, both parties got what they wanted, agreed on the next delivery time, and Wolfe returned home with a full load.
