Chapter 66 The Request of Viscount Alexis (5K+)

"My lord, this is your shop."

Early the next morning, Elliott and Job brought Lomo to the Martin Market and introduced him to the new store that Viscount Alexis had prepared for him.

Luo Mo was very satisfied with this shop. First of all, the location was prominent. As soon as he entered the market, the third shop was this shop.

The second is that the place is spacious enough, and the shop does not look smaller than the Witt House in Black Rock City.

Judging from these two places, Luomo is already very satisfied, which shows that Viscount Alexis has put his heart into trying to win him over.

For the opening of the store, the final ribbon-cutting will not be carried out until after taking office.The reason for this arrangement is that Luomo will have an official identity and uniform at that time, which will look more majestic and bring better publicity and endorsement to the store.

At the moment, Luomo ordered people to bring in some herbal raw materials grown in the manor and the life potions made, all of which can be sold here.

As for those combat medicines, because they are relatively expensive, they should not be placed here.

Luomo also plans to hunt demonized beasts in the future, and the things obtained from the hunting can also be sold here.

In the process of carrying the herbs, a fat man dressed in fancy clothes and looking very wealthy came over with two attendants, greeted Luomo slightly, and said with a smile: "Congratulations, Mr. Sardin, from now on we will be a street neighbors on the road."

Luo Mo turned his head to look at the other party, and Elliott explained in a timely manner: "My lord, this is the security captain Moore of the Martin Market. He also has a shop in the market, right next to us."

When Luo Mo heard this, a smile suddenly appeared on his face, "It turned out to be Lord Moore. My little brother is new here, please take care of me in the future."

"Where is it?" Moore waved his hands again and again, and said with a smile: "I heard that Mr. Sardin is about to be the knight captain of the reserve battalion, and he will be a general guarding my Volo River Valley in the future. If you are useful, just ask , Of course, if there are any good things, we can also exchange information."

"Of course." Luomo immediately invited: "Since your lord is interested, please tell me in the store. The products of our Sardin Manor are definitely high-quality goods."

Saying that, the two walked into the shop together in a friendly manner, as if they were old friends they had known for many years.

After a while, Luo Mo and Moore negotiated the sale of a batch of medicinal herbs.

Now Luomo's manor can already mass-produce medicinal herbs. Many medicinal herbs are harvested like leeks. They can't be used up by themselves, and they can be supplied to the market on a daily basis.

These herbs are not only used in alchemy professions, but also widely used in other magic professions such as inscriptions and magic engineering.In addition to the magic profession, the demand for using it in daily life is also quite large.

Belongs to more valuable economic crops.

Because Moore is in charge of managing the security of the market, Luomo gave him a considerable preferential price.In return, Moore will also supply Lomo with some medicinal materials that are scarce on the market.

In any case, since Moore extended an olive branch first, Luo Mo didn't mind showing some sincerity to befriend him.

After all, many friends have many paths.

After the two sides negotiated the cooperation, Moore was also full of joy, and was very satisfied with the sincerity shown by Luo Mo.

After exchanging pleasantries for a long time, Moore got up to say goodbye and left the shop.

On the other side of the street, Baron Adair, the store manager of Witt House, sat in the store and watched Moore walk out of Lomo's store with a happy expression.He squinted slightly, with a disdainful expression on his face.

The new deputy store manager on the side observed his words and immediately said: "My lord, the sheriff Moore knew that Sardin had conflicts with our Wit House, and he went up to join in the fun, obviously not to take our Wit The family is in the eyes."

"Hmph." Baron Adair sneered and said, "This idiot Moore couldn't understand the situation, and ran into a dead man's shop before it even opened. He is really stupid."

When the deputy store manager heard this, he was a little puzzled and said, "My lord, this Sardin seems to be alive and well."

Baron Adair glared at the deputy store manager, and said angrily: "You are also an idiot. If he doesn't die today, won't he die tomorrow?"

The deputy store manager's eyes lit up, and he said softly, "What does your lord mean?"

"Look, tomorrow, when this goddamn Sardin takes office, he will die. For this matter, I also helped a lot."

In the afternoon, Lomo, dressed in decent armor, together with Elliott and Job, went to meet the battalion officer of the reserve battalion, Viscount Alexis.

Vincent, José and others also followed. These people will be members of the seventh unit of the reserve battalion from now on.

Lomo has 25 knight places in his hand, but he only has a dozen knights at this stage.So in addition to the knights, he also provided a list of some militiamen, including Barron and George.

People on these lists will have a salary of three gold coins every month.

Of course, these three gold coins were issued to Vincent and the others in name, but actually fell into Luo Mo's pocket.

After all, Sardin Manor has its own salary system. Even if these people serve in the Knights, they are still under the control of Luomo.

In fact, most of the nobles of the Knights did this.In other words, the entire territory of Clay Kingdom is like this.

The army is becoming corrupt day by day, and the list of soldiers and knights in the army is either a person who does not exist at all, or it becomes the private property of the nobles.

Lomo is essentially the same as them.The difference is that Luomo doesn't spend money on eating, drinking, whoring and gambling like other nobles, but on training soldiers and constantly improving himself.

Under the leadership of Job, they arrived at the mansion of Viscount Alexis in a short time.

Looking from a distance, Luomo saw a man in a plain satin robe and a mage hat was waiting at the door, with some servants standing behind him.

When George saw the man, he ran over quickly, bowed to the man and said, "Father brought people, Lord Sardin came to visit."

Hearing George's address, Lomo was a little surprised.He didn't expect that it was Viscount Alexis standing at the door to greet him in person.

As a viscount and his own boss, Viscount Alexis's move can be said to be full of sincerity.

Seeing that his boss valued him so much, Luo Mo didn't mind licking him back. After all, no matter how enthusiastic the social etiquette is, it doesn't cost money, and it can give the other party enough face.

He hurried forward, half kneeling in the tunnel, and said, "Subordinate Luomo Sardin, I pay my respects to the battalion officer."

Viscount Alexis is over half a century old, not very old-fashioned, with a well-groomed long black beard, and his face looks rosy.

He personally helped Luo Mo up, and said with emotion: "Luo Mo, the teacher has mentioned you to me many times, and now it seems that you are really young, promising, and full of heroic spirit."

The teacher he was talking about was naturally Earl Martin.

Luo Mo had a low-browed and pleasing expression, and said humbly: "Sir, Sir. Earl Martin is highly respected and approachable. I will always take my teachings to heart."

Viscount Alexis chuckled, took Luo Mo's hand, and walked into the mansion together.

Unlike the residences of other nobles, Viscount Alexis's residence did not have so many maids, and the decoration was not necessarily luxurious.

There is a huge training ground in the house. When Luo Mo passed by, dozens of knights were training in it.

It seems that Viscount Alexis is also cultivating his own knights, and the number is much larger than himself.

Lomo left his entourage on the training ground, and he walked to the living room with Viscount Alexis.

After the guests and hosts sat down, Viscount Alexis cut to the chase and said: "Luo Mo, I appoint you as the captain of the seventh team. I can give you the monthly salary and magic product subsidy from the kingdom. No one will be inserted in. I can give you all kinds of benefits, but I only have two requirements."

"My lord, please speak." Luo Mo was a little surprised by Viscount Alexis's straightforward way of speaking.

Aren't great people always ambiguous and tacit in their speech?Why is the Lord Viscount speaking so bluntly.

Viscount Alexis said in a deep voice: "First of all, I ask you to clean up all the gnoll lairs in the northeastern part of the Volo River one by one, and all the trophies you get, except for some taboos in the kingdom, belong to you."

Speaking of this, he explained: "Since the Battle of Qiutang more than ten years ago, the Knights of the City Hall have never been as prosperous as before. As a result, the gnolls have become more and more lawless in the Volo River Valley. Last year, The jackals destroyed more than 20 manors in total, and more than 2000 people were killed by the jackals. This kind of destructive power is more than ten times that of ten years ago. Moreover, every time the jackals wipe out a small lord manor, there will be There are medium and large lords following behind to annex. If things go on like this, land annexation will become more and more serious, and the Voro Valley will eventually become the world of those few lords."

"That is to say, the gnolls burned, killed and looted in front, but it was actually those medium and large lords who profited behind?" Luomo said after a moment of pondering.

"Yes." Viscount Alexis nodded and said, "It is for this reason that those medium and large lords are unwilling to take action to punish the gnolls. I am not afraid to tell you clearly that if you take action, you may touch some nobles However, you can use my banner and just do things honestly, and I will handle all political issues."

Luomo thought for a while, and he remembered that Earl Martin had also thought about getting rid of the jackals himself, so he asked: "Did Lord Earl Martin just want to fight the jackals and touched the interests of some nobles, so he was forced to kill the jackals?" The Volo Valley you left?"

Viscount Alex shook his head, and said in a deep voice: "I can tell you clearly, it's not because of this. This kind of thing can't touch the foundation of the teacher. The teacher really offended other people. This point involves the teacher's Things are not easy to explain to you."

"Understood." Luo Mo nodded.

"So, can you do this?" Viscount Alexis asked, staring into Luomo's eyes.

"It can be done." Luo Mo replied without thinking.

In fact, when he came, he already guessed that Viscount Alexis might ask him to solve the wolf man problem.Although there are certain political risks, Lomo doesn't care.In the process of development, even an honest businessman may encounter all kinds of enemies, and it is even more impossible to avoid any risks in expansion.

Since it cannot be avoided, it can only be faced positively.He once raided a Gnoll lair and gained a lot.Since it is a fat job, Luo Mo has no reason not to do it.

Even without the Viscount's order, he would occasionally have the idea of ​​copying one or two wolf man's lairs to enjoy himself.

What's more, you can still use the banner of Viscount Alexis.Let this Lord Viscount take the thunder for himself, why not do it?
When Viscount Alexis saw Luo Mo's quick promise, he showed a satisfied smile on his face, and praised: "Knowing that there are risks, but agreeing so readily, you are indeed a person valued by the teacher."

"Your Excellency, what about another request?" Luo Mo asked.

Viscount Alexis was silent for a while, and said in a deep voice: "This request is a bit unfounded. But I must explain in advance that it is the problem of evil orcs. I want you to swear before the god of the wilderness that if one day the army of evil orcs When you come to the Volo River Valley, you must fulfill your duties as a sergeant of the Kingdom and the general of the Volo River Knights, and actively fight until the evil orc army is driven out of the valley."

Hearing this, Luomo asked in a tentative tone: "My lord, the army of evil orcs is only tens of thousands. And the legion supporting the northern border alone now has tens of thousands of people. Do you really think that the army of evil orcs will Hit the Wallow Valley?"

Viscount Alex shook his head and said: "I don't think the evil orc army will have such power. In fact, none of the lords in the Volo Valley, including the city hall, think that the evil orcs can hit here. Those bastards Although the Grizzly Bear Fortress has been broken, there are still hundreds of thousands of troops guarding the northern border between the Grizzly Bear Fortress and the Volo Valley, and they are all elite troops of the Kingdom."

Speaking of this, Viscount Alexis changed the subject and said: "But, the teacher is someone who has dealt with evil orcs. He not only believes it, but also has deep worries. Therefore, I have to add such a request. "

"Understood." Luo Mo nodded.

He half-kneeled on the ground, stretched out three fingers to the sky, and made an oath to the God of the Wilderness, expressing that he would actively fight against the evil orcs and never be a deserter.

Viscount Alexis nodded in satisfaction when he heard Luomo's oath.

No one would lie to the wild god, unless the person had no reverence for the gods.

What he didn't know was that Luo Mo was such a person.

After the two requests were finished, Viscount Alex finally approved Lomo.

Thinking of tomorrow's inauguration ceremony, Viscount Alexis suddenly remembered something, and said to Luomo, "I want to remind you about something."

"Sir, please speak."

"Have you ever heard of a first-level druid mage named Harrington?"

Luo Mo shook his head and said, "I haven't heard of it."

Alex explained: "This person made friends with Baron Nora's father and was once his father's comrade-in-arms. A few years ago, the two of them broke through as a formal mage together. Baron Nora's father failed, but he succeeded. Later he Walking out of the river valley and traveling the northern border, I heard that his strength has greatly increased. This time, Baron Nora's mother spent a lot of money to invite him here, which seems to be against you."

First Class Druid Mage
Luo Mo thought to himself, this is probably the strongest enemy he has ever encountered.

"Unfortunately, I don't know what his fighting style and skills are." Luo Mo frowned slightly.
Viscount Alexis said with a smile on his face: "Since I know that he may be against you, why should I not investigate?"

When Luo Mo heard this, his face immediately showed joy, and he bowed and said, "Please enlighten me, my lord."

Viscount Alexis took out a note from his pocket, and said softly: "As a Druid, the skill he needs to survive must be transformation. According to the information I have investigated, he is best at the beast form of transformation." It's the Flame Turtle, the North Eyed Bear, and the Three-Tailed Dolphin."

"Among them, the northern multi-eyed bear and the flame turtle are his fighting forms. The northern multi-eyed bear has excellent eyesight and can create illusions through light. The flame turtle can create high-temperature flames. According to the characteristics of these two animals, it can be guessed that he may It will be immune to some water attribute skills. Since you are a water elemental knight, I am afraid he is your nemesis." Viscount Alexis explained.

Luo Mo listened to the information with a thoughtful expression on his face.

Viscount Alex patted Luomo on the shoulder, motioned him to relax, and said, "Luomo, you don't have to worry. I will be at the inauguration ceremony tomorrow, and I will definitely not let them destroy it. Unless that Harrington honors you duel."

"Duel of honor? What is this?" Lomo asked in confusion.

"This is a duel between the nobles, one-on-one. Once initiated, death will be the only way to rest. During the duel, no one else is allowed to participate in the battle, nor is it allowed to use any conspiracy, otherwise people and gods will be angry."

Hearing this explanation, Luo Mo nodded, with a thoughtful expression on his face.

Viscount Alexis continued: "That Harrington is just here to help, and he doesn't have any deep hatred for you. He may not have an honor duel with you. However, nothing is absolute, and you'd better make some preparations in advance."

"Thank you for your reminder, my lord." Luomo bowed to Viscount Alexis.

This information was very useful to him, and it was rare for Viscount Alexis to take care of him.

Viscount Alexis even said no thanks, took Luo Mo's hand, and tried his best to him.

The two chatted happily, and after talking for a long time, Lomo bid farewell to Viscount Alex.

After leaving the living room, Luomo came to the training ground and saw that everyone was watching the training of the knights under Viscount Alexis.

Seeing the young master Job leading the crowd to watch, those knights trained very seriously for a while, showing their strength desperately.

Jos and Nicholas watched with relish, trying to learn some moves and techniques from them.

Lomola pulled Elliott and Job over and said softly, "Please ask me where Harrington lives."

With that said, Lomo introduced some information about Harrington to the two.

"Mr. Sardin is thinking?" Job was suddenly a little confused.

"With this kind of enemy, I can't be careless at all. I have to make some preparations in advance." Luo Mo said in a deep voice.

"Understood. Let's ask someone to find out." Job and Elliott said immediately, then turned and left.
