This brave man is a scumbag

Chapter 25 The big one is coming

"The Hede family?"

Elma and the others who were far away at the Goblin Farmhouse did not know that the two city-states of Silver City and Victoria had already been shaken by the challenge letter in their hands.

Of course, Zhou Li must know that he bought the thief, and he also distributed the leaflets in the middle of the night.

But they knew that this man called the Hede family had suffered bad luck for eight lifetimes.

"You said that this family challenged you not for profit, but because of chivalry?"

Elma sat on the chair and looked at Zhou Li with disbelief: "You are not kidding, this is too strange..."

"Hede..."

Ah Zi on the side frowned slightly, and after thinking for a moment, said slowly: "I seem to have an impression of this family."

"Their next Patriarch seems to be called Don Quixote. I met her when I went to the City of Silver to do business last time. I saw that she entered Baiyin at the age of 22 and asked her out of curiosity. Later, someone told me that Huode The family has almost become a joke and legend in the aristocratic world, and few people mention it, and even if it is mentioned, it is used as a negative case to teach the next generation."

A Ziyu tapped on the wooden table with her finger, her long purple hair was draped softly behind her, like a beautiful satin, "However, among the civilians and the mercenary regiment of the City of Silver, the Hede family has a surprisingly good reputation. Even The gang of sewer rats in the black alley praised them very much, and it is rare that they would avoid all business related to the Hede family."

"So, if it's this family..." Ah Zi tilted her head, and said with some uncertainty: "It seems... that it is really possible to challenge Zhou Li for honor and justice."

After listening to Ah Zi's words, the expression on Elma's face became even more strange.Although she is kind-hearted by nature, she does not object to Zhou Li using despicable but not despicable means to improve herself, but this image of a knight family in a fairy tale is too fair.But now it is obvious that this family has fallen into the trap set by Zhou Li.According to Zhou Li's habits, the fate of this family...

Elma pursed her lower lip slightly, coughed vigorously with firm eyes, then she looked at Zhou Li, and asked with a serious expression: "Zhou Li, tell me, did you ask the Hede family to challenge you?"

"more or less."

Zhou Li, who had been listening to the conversation between the two, sighed softly, then sat up straight, and said seriously: "The challenge of the Hede family is indeed related to me."

"Throw a page dedicated to the brave near the territory of the Hede family, and inadvertently mail them a magical photo of the brave lying in a pile of gold coins, and get some evidence that the brave is not aggressive. These things are enough to make this group of people only have one brain The stringed knight sleeps day and night, worrying about the future of mankind."

"Ah, no wonder."

At this moment, Ah Zi suddenly realized that when she was preparing the first batch of gold coins to be sent to the Goblin tribe, Zhou Li had approached her, hoping to exchange half of the gold feathers, that is, "banknotes" representing ten gold coins.Although she had some doubts, she didn't think too much about it. She hired a carriage and a mercenary team to deliver a thousand gold coins to Zhou Li, as well as a magic video equipment that he specified to buy.

"You know them well."

Ah Zi didn't pay much attention to the fact that Zhou Li set up a trap to trap the Hede family.As far as she is concerned, if the Kenghede family can develop the Goblin tribe, she would be more than happy.After all, she is just a businessman. To Ah Zi, there are only benefits to speak of in the businessman's world, and the so-called virtues can also be clearly marked.

But Elma didn't think so. For her, defrauding and entrapping a knight family with a sense of justice was a threshold that was difficult to cross, and it was a barb on her conscience.Alma opened her mouth facing Zhou Li, and just about to say something, Zhou Li suddenly stretched out her hand and interrupted her words.He looked at Elma and said calmly:
"However, I'm not trying to harm them."

"Instead, I was saving her."

"Oh hoo."

Ah Zi made a voice of unknown meaning, while Elma's face was full of doubts.

"Is it the rumor?" Azi turned the wooden cup in her hand on the table, and explained to Elma beside her: "The Hede family has not paid land tax for six consecutive years, and has not made any noble contribution. If If they are still like this this year, the Hede family will be revoked the name of nobility and their territory."

"But what does this have to do with Zhou Li?" Elma, who was completely uninterested in the aristocratic system of the Magnum Kingdom, was a little confused. At this moment, Zhou Li spoke.

"A brave man can have a retinue family." Zhou Li coughed, and then continued: "The retinue family is the subordinate of the brave man, independent of the major kingdoms, and their territories and noble names are protected by the Twelve Churches."

"Ugh?"

Elma understood Zhou Li's meaning, she stood up, and asked Zhou Li cheerfully: "Are you going to take the Hede family as your followers?"

"Ang, yes."

Zhou Li nodded, but Elma had doubts again, "Then why do you use this... roundabout way to collect them? Can you tell them directly?"

"If it's other nobles, of course." At this time, Ah Zi raised her eyebrows and explained to Elma: "But it won't work for the single-minded people of the Hede family."

"If I want to write a letter directly, with the badge of the brave engraved in the letter, telling the Hede family that I will take you as my followers. No one will dare to take your territory and name in the future. Guess what they will say?"

Seeing the enlightened Elma, Zhou Li smiled and said the answer.

"We did not pay taxes, nor did we have any contributions from nobles. The punishment we received is deserved. Although we are very grateful for your help, we must be responsible for this country's regulations."

"So, I have to set up a trick to make them willingly become my followers."

"Oh~~" Elma nodded, sat back on the chair, rubbed her stiff cheeks, and no longer had any doubts.

"What about the plan?" Ah Zi faced Zhou Li and said with great interest: "Mr. Zhou Li didn't call me here just to talk about it, did he? Serve."

Although she doesn't care about virtue, it would be a good thing for Goblin Farmhouse and Zisha Chamber of Commerce if there is a group of powerful professionals who don't have the strange XP and temper of nobles.So, she was more than happy to help in this matter.

"plan?"

The appearance of these two words made a very familiar smile appear on Zhou Li's face.

With this kind of smile, there must be several lucky and unlucky smiles.
