Chapter 435 Chen Shou took the initiative and made additional “investments”! (Please subscribe)
“Excuse me, is there a war breaking out here?”
“I know other nobles around here and may be able to help you.”
The inner uneasiness emboldened the fat businessman to strike up a conversation with the black-armored knight next to him, and tried his best to make his expression look sincere.
However, several black-armored knights just glanced at him and said nothing.
But being closer to him, and even putting his hand on the weapon, as if he was afraid that he would suddenly escape, made the merchant's inner uneasiness even stronger.
Soon, they arrived outside a noble manor.
"Go in, the master is waiting for you inside!"
A knight in black armor said.
The fat businessman jumped out of the carriage, straightened his clothes, then picked up a small box from the carriage and strode towards it with his head raised.
No matter what, the aristocratic style cannot be lost.
Originally, merchants are discriminated against among nobles. If he behaves easily, it would not be surprising if he is robbed.
Wow!
The two wandering knights behind them wanted to follow them in, but were blocked by the black-armored knights. They were instantly at war with each other, and there was a sound of friction between the blades.
“You stay outside!”
Although the fat businessman also wanted people to follow him, he had to lower his head under the eaves, so he had to turn around and say.
Crunch.
Opening the door outside, the servants coming and going inside gave him a familiar feeling and successfully made him relax.
Compared with the abnormality outside, this is the style of the aristocracy!
"Dear Lord, I offer you"
There was a long table in the living room, and a figure sat at the end. The fat businessman subconsciously bent down and put on a smile to say hello. However, after seeing the specific appearance of the other person, he was immediately stuck and froze in place.
The person sitting at the top was not the nobleman he imagined, but a strange woman.
Her dress does not feel noble at all, but gives people a cold, strange, mysterious and unusual atmosphere.
"Businessman, what goods did you bring?"
Faced with his gaffe, the strange woman was not angry, but looked at him with interest.
"I, I have brought many precious treasures, please take a look."
The fat businessman suppressed his shock and opened the small box in his arms, revealing the contents inside. There were indeed some shining treasures. Jewelry, gold and silver accessories, etc.
These are all carefully selected by him, and they have extraordinary lethality for nobles, especially ladies.
However, what disappointed him was that the woman only glanced at her and then withdrew her gaze in disappointment.
“Besides these, are there other goods? I mean, those with extraordinary magic power and mysterious things.”
she asked calmly.
“Extraordinary and mysterious?”
The fat businessman opened his mouth and was speechless for a moment.
Good guy, is this a little too high of a view on him?
He does know these things, but without exception, he has heard about them in legends, and even if there are, they cannot be traded in his hands. They have long been regarded as by other nobles. The stuff at the bottom of the box is hidden.
Unless it's a matter of life and death, outsiders can't even get a glimpse of it.
"It seems there is none."
The woman shook her head.
"Sorry, I'm leaving now!"
The fat businessman wiped his sweat, turned around and wanted to leave, but was stopped by the other party. "Wait!"
The woman stood up and walked towards him. Only then did he realize that the woman was unexpectedly tall, which brought a strong sense of oppression.
"You said, do you know other nobles around here?"
A strange smile appeared on the other party's face.
“Yes, yes.”
The fat businessman nodded hesitantly, not knowing what the other party meant.
"Very good, then I need your help to lead the way!"
The woman reached out and patted his shoulder, and a black snake spitting out letters wrapped around his neck and hissed. Hissing.
"Now, set off and conquer!!"
The witch shouted loudly and led the fat businessman out of the door.
Knights whose armors were painted in black surrounded them from all directions, like a flock of black crows, but what frightened the fat businessman the most was that behind these knights, there were skeleton knights riding skeleton horses.
They appeared majestically under the sun, and their dark eyes seemed to be bottomless.
Let everyone who sees it feel fear from the bottom of their hearts.
“This, this!”
The fat businessman was stunned and almost collapsed to the ground. He was pushed onto the horse in a daze and headed towards the nearest noble territory. .
The witch followed him on horseback, with a mysterious light shining in her eyes.
“These nobles are too slow and arrogant!”
She originally thought that she had killed the baron and implemented a reign of terror in which those who followed me would prosper and those who went against me would perish. The nearby nobles should react quickly and lead their troops to encircle and suppress her.
Unexpectedly, a month has passed and these nobles didn't notice anything. They continued to sing and dance.
On the contrary, the witch lost her patience and decided to take the initiative.
After all, there must be a battle between the two. Those nobles will not tolerate a witch becoming the ruler, and the witch also needs more land and wealth to distribute to her followers so that she can better collect mysterious items.
Deep in the swamp.
Chen Shou looked at the round mirror of light that appeared in front of him. The scene above was exactly the scene of the witch's expedition.
I couldn’t help but stretch out my paws and rub the scales on my chin.
“Does this guy want to be the queen?”
Although he was in a swamp, through the witchcraft called "Zhao Jian" in front of him, he could watch the witch's every move as if it were live broadcast.
I have to say that this swamp witch he made up at random did give him some surprises.
Not only did she attack decisively, uprooting the baron family who ruled the territory, and at the same time went on a killing spree to clear out the disobedient people in the territory, but she also taught herself how to divide the fields and fight against the local tyrants. In one move, he distributed the baron's land to others, creating a basic base for himself.
It is conceivable that if she can withstand the counterattack of the nobles, then the foundation of her rule may be more stable than that of other nobles.
And judging from the rigidity, slowness, and arrogance of the nobles in this world, I am afraid that they will really suffer a big loss in the early stage.
"From this point of view, it is too wasteful to use it as a bait. Maybe more investment can be made."
He had a thought in his mind.
Originally sleeping at the bottom of the lake, they were sprayed to death by his abyssal power ten years ago. However, they attracted mysterious power and transformed into an army of undead. Some of the skeleton warriors woke up and walked towards the shore. go.
This is his additional "investment" in the witch.
Originally, this was just a chess piece for him to test the outside world, but now it seems that since this chess piece has greater development potential, he is not stingy.
"Let me see how far you can go!"
