Chapter 111

"Angst Nightblade is a legendary assassin? She's in Twilight Summer!?" Hearing Anya's report, it was Isbel who reacted the most, and she almost screamed out.

"That's right, it's the author of your favorite pornographic book. The signature on your book, at least the result of my identification, is her authentic work. Since she recently published a new work in Mu Xia, the possibility of her lurking in Mu Xia Very sexual." Anya glanced at Isbel with a bit of sarcasm in her tone.

"This is impossible, we have to find her quickly!" Isbel's face became serious.

"You want to hold a fan meeting?" Gannon asked, he still remembered Isbel's appreciation notes, in which she gave Angst's works the highest marks.

"How is it possible? A legendary dark elf assassin is lurking in Muxia. This kind of thing can threaten the safety of the king and queen. I have to notify them immediately!" Isbel stared at Gannon and said seriously. .

Ganon was taken aback when he heard the words: "You suddenly come up with such a serious reason, I am a little uncomfortable..."

"What do you think of me?" Isbel glared at Gannon angrily.

"I don't think you need to worry about this." Anya folded her hands and looked at Isbel, "Angst is a solitary person who can leave her own family behind. What reason does she have to assassinate Muxia's royal family for herself?" Getting into trouble? And I remember that Princess Mu Xia is also a legend, and the Elf King and his son are extraordinary mages, even Angst, it would be very difficult to break through the protection and assassinate them."

"Can a dark elf lurk in late summer for a long time?" Ganon asked.

"Mu Xia has a large area and few people, and the population management is not strict. It's just that it's easy to live in seclusion in Mu Xia. Moreover, Angst is proficient in the disguise technique, and she also possesses some disguised magic weapons. Let alone lurking in Mu Xia, she just makes her It is easy for her to play a specific elf." Anya explained.

"It's not easy for such a person to find her." Ganon soon realized that this information might not be of much use for the time being.

And if you find it, you may not be able to get the artifact from her hand. A legendary strongman who holds the highest artifact in his job may be able to kill even the ancient dragon.

Even if he wants to make a deal with the other party, Gannon can't think of any bargaining chips for the time being. Such a character is unlikely to have problems with ordinary resources such as money.

"But such an important matter, I still have to explain it to my mother." Isbel left the study after finishing speaking, and went back to her room to write a letter.

Ganon decided to temporarily hand over this matter to Mu Xia's side for investigation, and he should still give priority to the issue of the Principality of Xihe.

"Is there anything else worth worrying about?" Ganon asked.

Anya thought for a while, and continued to report: "The Grand Duke Xihe seems to be getting married."

"Married? Doesn't he have a son?" Ganon asked.

"His wife has passed away for several years, and he proposed marriage to Beishan Kingdom, intending to marry the daughter of the king of Beishan." Anya explained.

"Dwarves?" Not only Ganon, but Zhenna's eyes widened in surprise.

It is not uncommon for humans and dwarves to marry, but they are very rare.

Not only physical appearance, but also the aesthetics of humans and dwarves are quite different, not to mention differences in life span and concepts.

"Yes, she is the youngest daughter of the North Mountain Dwarf King. Xihe Principality is trying to deepen ties with Beishan Kingdom. This is a political marriage. Xihe Principality transferred a mine to Beishan Kingdom and signed a long-term agreement with Beishan Kingdom. Arms procurement contract." Anya said.

At this time, Zhenna raised a question: "Then you don't have to marry, right? The Queen and the Beishan Kingdom are so close, and the Principality of Xihe borders the Beishan Kingdom. They have enough reasons to deepen their relationship, and it's hard for me to imagine that. The Grand Duke of Sihe will accept the marriage of a dwarf."

The Grand Duke Xihe and his sons are both known for being good women, especially the Grand Duke himself, who has that despicable habit, which can be said to be notorious in the aristocratic circle.

"Yes, Grand Duke Xihe is not only lustful, but also child lover." Anya immediately understood what Zhenna meant, and she had already grasped this kind of information, "We found a very interesting thing about this. The appearance of the little princess is also a bit special."

"What's so special?" Ganon asked.

"Dwarves, both men and women, are generally strong and strong, and their society also regards being strong as a beauty. But there are also a few dwarves who are born thin and thin. Coupled with the height limit, they will look like human children..." Anya said and paused Dun, "The youngest daughter of King Beishan is said to be like this."

"Understood." Ganon showed a look of sudden realization.

"To marry that old pervert, this dwarf princess is too pitiful." Zhenna frowned.

"It turned out that the wedding date was set for one month later, but it seems to have been delayed recently, and the reason is not clear." Anya said.

"This, I don't know how it will affect us for the time being. Let's look for an opportunity to assassinate the Grand Duke first, and then investigate and report." Ganon waved his hand.

"Understood." After An Ya finished speaking, she did not leave, but thought about it, and said to Ganon, "Ganon, there is something that I think I need to mention to you..."

"Speak directly." Ganon replied.

"You seem to have never allocated funds to us." Anya asked seriously.

"Funding? Do you still want wages?" Ganon raised his eyebrows.

"I didn't expect this!" Anya rolled her eyes, "I mean, the cost of collecting intelligence!"

"I paid living expenses and traveling expenses to all the people I sent out," Gannon said.

"That's just the most basic need for survival. To conduct investigations, there must be additional expenses. Buying and making connections will all cost money. I usually send people to Shaman City to meet with familiar intelligence dealers on a regular basis. , It also takes money to buy information from information dealers." Anya explained.

"How much money do you need?" Ganon frowned slightly, he had a hunch that the cost would not be small.

Anya made some calculations: "I think one hundred gold coins a month is still necessary."

"So expensive?" Ganon felt a pain in his heart, "You didn't raise the price, did you?"

This can't be said that he is greedy for money, the cost of maintaining an elite intelligence force and intelligence network is indeed not small, and the average small landlord really can't afford it.

"With the contract, I can't get money from you!" Anya replied angrily, "Is this okay? All the property I brought before is in your hands."

"Those are my assets." Ganon looked at Anya seriously.

"I didn't expect to come back with you, so don't stress to me!" Anya glared at Gannon, and silently scolded him as a robber in her heart.

"The main reason is that the money can't just decrease but not increase. Most of the money earned every month will have to be spent on you, and you will have to pay back when the harvest is not so good." Gannon began to settle accounts again.

"This expense is not in our pockets, nor is it used for your needs." Anya retorted.

"The pastures and farms can still be expanded, and the woods in the west can be turned into forest farms. Manpower is not a problem, but there is only so much demand for purchases in Mu Xia, and people basically don't buy meat and wood. "Zenna said that she occasionally helps Gannon with matters in the territory, and she has a better understanding of the situation in the territory.

There are still a lot of resources in the territory, and it is absolutely not a problem to use the golem summoned by the Infinity Tower to produce.

The problem lies in the sales of the products. Currently, they can only trade with Mu Xia, but the settlements on the west side of Mu Xia do not have such a big demand gap in terms of agricultural resources, and they cannot conduct large-scale transactions with the empire.

At this time Anya suddenly suggested: "You can transport your things to the northwest to sell. There are many city-states on the edge of the desert. The food production in those areas is not high, and basically need to be sent by traveling merchants from the villages of the empire. Thieves are rampant again, so the price of food has remained high, and doing business there must be bloody money."

"The settlements over there are very scattered, and they will migrate or be abandoned at any time, which is very unstable." Gannon said.

In the past, after Helganon settled in the Infinity Tower, apart from some small countries further west, he mainly plundered some small towns and villages on the northwest grasslands and deserts, as well as passing caravans.

These places basically don't have much lucrative water, but compared with Mu Xia and the Empire, at least they don't have so many worries to grab.

However, the settlements formed in this wild land are often very unstable, and they will often migrate or even be destroyed directly after a few years. There are many reasons, one of which is the giant dragons operating on the edge of the civilized world.

"There are also some protected and stable towns, such as Shaman City, which is the largest commercial city-state on the edge of the desert. I suggest you go there and contact a stable purchaser. Although the transportation route can also be handed over to them, but at this price You will be severely suppressed, I recommend you to carry it yourself, no one can rob you anyway." Anya suggested.

"Sounds good." Gannon nodded, "I remember you said earlier that you were going to Shaman City to inquire about information?"

"Yes, there are mixed fish and dragons there, and it is also a center of intelligence. People from the 'Maze' of the Nightblade family and other intelligence personnel trained by the Nitrilan family are also active there. Now that we don't have the support of 'Maze', it is best to regularly Getting packaged news from a reliable informant is like subscribing to a book," Anya explained.

"That's just right, the task of scouting out the buyer is also entrusted to you." Ganon assigned this extra task to the dark elf team without hesitation.

"Then you're allocating the funds." Anya sighed.

"Tomorrow, I will ask the steward to bring you the money, and I look forward to your results." Gannon ordered.

"Understood, then I'll go down and rest first." Anya waved her hand.

"Do you have nothing else to deal with afterwards?" Ganon asked.

"What else is there?" Anya frowned slightly.

"Come with us for a while." Ganon smiled, "I want to try a new game."

Anya's expression changed instantly.
