Dress up as the devil and bring some shock to the other world.

Under the arrangement of Nita, the dwarf Leon moved into a workshop with a large enough area.

This was once the workshop of another blacksmith, gifted by Nita's father.

However, a few years ago, when Twin Tree City was in decline, he ran away regardless of Nita's father's kindness.

When Levi approached the workshop.

I happened to see a dwarf.

Not Leon, though.

Li Wei frowned slightly.

This dwarf had a tan beard, short limbs, and was slovenly. The clothes on his body were covered with a thick layer of stains.

This is the standard look of a dwarf.

Leon is an exception. The dwarves make a living by forging. They are surrounded by fire and iron every day and rarely wear decent clothes.

But Leon is always very delicate. Not only his clothes are as clean as new, but his skin is also very smooth.

Among the dwarves, although Leon is middle-aged, he is still considered handsome.

A circle of city guards gathered around the dwarf.

Among them, Levi saw Nita wearing a smart long dress and her hair tied into a ponytail.

I have to say that the girl who used to have the childish air of a young lady now has a mature charm.

"Fran, you have made great contributions to Twin Tree City."

"This is why my father gave this workshop to you."

"but..."

Nita was interrupted by Fran, "I'm coming back now, this is my home!"

Nita shook her head, "You should know what you have done."

Fran laughed.

"I am an elite blacksmith!"

"If you reject me now, your Twin Tree City will never have any new dwarves!"

"Could it be that you plan to rely on you crappy humans to become blacksmiths?"

Fran's words were full of arrogance.

He's a dwarf, that's what gives him confidence.

During the forging process, the dwarves said three, but no one said two!

As for who is first.

Eluna never dreamed of stepping on this first place.

Human beings can have a supreme blacksmith, but there is only one, and it is difficult for the rest of them to achieve any outstanding achievements in forging.

You can't be like the dwarves who know how to forge with a hammer when they are born.

Nita hesitated.

Most of the equipment in the city now is purchased from other towns.

If you want to maintain equipment, you can do it by recruiting a few good forging apprentices.

Moreover, the chief blacksmith of the Chamber of Commerce, Leon, is also too technical. His experience in forging weapons and armor can be said to be worse than that of an apprentice.

Many territories and towns will recruit a good blacksmith to worship them.

There will always be some people who are very strong but lack the right equipment.

There are very few ready-made equipment available on the market for suitable equipment, and even fewer that are suitable.

If you have a good dwarf, you can tailor it.

Nita hesitated.

Yu Qing, the dwarf in front of him is not a good person. He took the lead in running away after his father died, and he doesn't miss the old relationship at all.

Yu Li is an elite blacksmith, and there are only a few dozen master blacksmiths above him in the entire kingdom.

There are only two higher Supreme Blacksmiths.

One is the queen of their dwarf clan, and the other is... on the human side, the master of Levi's friend Eluna.

Bring Fran back...

It will be of great benefit to the development of Twin Tree City.

But...

Nita was confused.

Fran put his hands on his hips and took out a contract.

"If you want me to come back, just do as above, otherwise, no dwarf will ever step into your Twin Tree City again!"

After Nita took it, her expression became more solemn.

In addition to the fixed salary.

There is also a 50% tax reduction!

If it is the weapons needed for forging city guards, they also require direct tax exemption!

The lion opened his mouth.

Nita's eyes were unkind, "Fran, let's go."

Fran raised an eyebrow, "You'll regret it."

Nita shook her head, "I will not regret it. Although my city is in dire need, it does not mean that I will compromise."

Looking at Fran, Nita said forcefully, "I don't need you in Twin Tree City!"

Nita wanted to solve the problem at hand according to Levi's way of thinking.

To make Fran bleed and drain all his value.

but...

She doesn't need a traitor.

A traitor who doesn't care about old feelings, a villain.

When Nita turned around to leave, her steps suddenly stopped.

She met a man face to face with a smile as warm as the sun.

Smiling broadly.

Nita's breath hitched for a moment.

It's over.

She was referring to Fran being screwed.

"Who is this?" Levi asked.

"My father's friend ran away a few years ago and is back now," Nita said.

A simple sentence made Levi understand the situation.

It turns out they were arguing about this just now.

"Do you need it?" Levi asked.

Nita shook her head, "The dwarf is needed, but not him."

Levi understood.

Fran looked at the blond man in front of him and couldn't help but snorted.

Pooh.

Why is he so handsome? He looks like he has the potential to be a pretty boy.

"Hello, please introduce yourself. I am Nita's friend, Legal Aid in Twin Tree City."

The smile on Levi's face remained as he introduced himself politely.

Nita took a deep look at Fran.

Because you were my father's friend and because of your contribution to Twin Tree City, Fran, I mourn for you.

After Nita and Levi met.

She summed up a rule.

After dealing with Levi, you will be divided into two types of people, those who live a good life, and those who live worse than a dog.

"Human...what do you want to say?" Fran asked.

Levi said curiously, "You shed your blood for Twin Tree City, right?"

Fran was stunned for a moment, then nodded, "Yes, I have shed my blood for Twin Tree City. If you go out and kill the donkey, no dwarf will want to come to you in the future!"

"Want to come back?" Levi blinked.

"You have the final say?" Fran couldn't help but ask.

Twintree City is indeed developing very well now. Although it seems that everything is prosperous at present, due to the holding of the competition, a large number of adventurers have poured in here.

Very famous.

Same time.

Here is also a piece of jade.

Worth carving.

There is great potential for development, and most importantly, there is a shortage of people and talents.

That's why Fran came back.

Most dwarves have someone to serve.

The other part also returned to their hometown of Yongen, the country of forging, and studied forging.

The reason why Fran ran away was because Yongen was too curled up. He was not young anymore and could not curl up. It was better to find a good place to retire.

"He has the final say." Nita nodded.

Fran couldn't help but look at Levi a few more times.

Damn, pretty boy, right?

"Yes, if you can agree to my request, I will come back."

"And this workshop, this is mine! I demand its return!"

Levi took the contract handed over by Nita and glanced at it a few times.

I want to come to this benefit!

"Not very demanding..."

Fran was secretly happy. This was a request he had written down that would allow the other party to make a counteroffer.

It would be better if you can agree directly.

If not, just lower the price.

In short, as long as it's not too bad, he can make money.

"Fixed salary...Twintree City doesn't need to support idlers."

"How about removing it?"

Fran blew his beard and stared, "No way!"

Levi smiled and said, "Does it mean that you are not confident in your skills?"

"If the equipment you forge is good enough, you won't pay this salary."

Fran choked out.

"I am an elite blacksmith!" he shouted.

"I understand, but... we don't need idle people. What if you are given a salary but you don't contribute?"

Levi said kindly, "We need you, and you need us, so we have to go in both directions."

Fran hesitated, then finally nodded.

"can!"

The salary is actually just an additional condition he added.

Even if it is removed, it will not affect his treatment.

"Secondly, a 50% tax reduction is okay, but the premise is that Chengwei's large-volume orders will also be taxed."

"It's inevitable."

A fifty percent reduction is already a lot.

Fran's opinion of Levi has improved a lot.

He bargained.

But no dragon-slaying knife was used.

Fran chuckled inwardly.

An indecisive young man.

Very easy to deal with.

However, even so, you still have to make a counter-offer.

"Large-volume orders must be tax-free!"

Levi thought for a moment.

"How about this? You must sign a contract to serve Twin Tree City for three years. The first year will be 80% off, the second year will be 50% off, and the third year will be tax-free."

"After three years, we will not restrict you whether you stay or go."

“You can leave or stay, and if you stay you can renew and get a 10 percent tax reduction.”

Fran hesitated.

Eighty percent off...

Now there is a big gap in equipment in Twin Tree City, and he can make a lot of money through this.

Just the first year.

After that, when the equipment is completed, there will be no large-volume orders.

Not bad...but you have to bargain.

"A contract of up to one year!"

Levi shook his head, "You know what you have done, and we don't trust you!"

Fran's expression turned ugly for a moment.

"Okay! I agree!"

"But I demand the return of this workshop!"

Levi shook his head, "This place has been given to another dwarf, but we will arrange a workshop for you, so it won't be bad, how about it?"

"Now tell me what equipment you need, and we will purchase it for you."

Fran felt that his counteroffer was good enough, and he was sure to make a profit without losing any money! ! !

"I need to..."

Fran mentioned a series of forging equipment, and Nita quickly ordered someone to record it.

It has to be said that as an elite blacksmith, Fran does have his own opinions on forging.

What he chooses are the most cost-effective and best-used equipment.

The most important thing is... these devices can be fine-tuned when purchased.

How to fine-tune to improve forging efficiency and improve the quality of finished products...

Fran has his own unique perspective.

After all, let the other party purchase.

He just followed what was best.

After recording a whole piece of paper eloquently, Levi asked, "Is there anything else you want to add?"

Fran thought for a moment and shook his head, "No more."

Then he looked at Nita, "It's because of your father's care for me that I came back!"

Levi glanced at the paper recording Fran's needs.

Then he asked, "Is it really gone?"

"No, with these, I can use all my firepower!"

Levi smiled, very happily.

Nita felt something was wrong from the beginning.

Why is Levi so... so gentle this time?

Let the other party do whatever they want.

But now.

After he saw Levi smiling.

An idea flashed through Nita's mind.

What the hell!

This is too new! ! !

It turns out that Levi is really that new, because he spoke.

"Okay, Fran, you can leave Twin Tree City."

Fran: "????"

Levi said slowly.

"After I lower your requirements, you have to stay."

"This shows that for you, an elite blacksmith, this treatment can still allow you to settle in Twin Tree City under the name of a traitor."

"In that case, why don't we recruit another one?"

Fran: "???"

Levi smiled and said, "Thank you for telling us all the things we need to pay attention to when building a workshop."

"This makes it a lot more convenient for us."

"Thank you so you can get lost."

Fran's expression changed from joy and anticipation at first, to confusion, and finally to anger.

He was stabbed in the back! ! !

"What do you mean!!!" Fran roared angrily, "You Twin Tree City have already negotiated terms with me!"

Levi shrugged helplessly, "So, have we signed the contract?"

Fran was stunned.

He really didn't sign it, but after the conditions were negotiated, he relaxed...

"If you do this, don't think that dwarves will settle here." Fran sneered.

Levi asked calmly, "Aren't we honest? We were negotiating terms, but the talks collapsed."

"and..."

"We want you to be decent. If we tell the outside world that you betrayed Twin Tree City, do you think other territories will want you?"

Fran was speechless.

Fran was silent.

Levi continued.

"Besides, we are not worried that no one will come. Even you accepted this treatment. It must be higher than the market price."

"Moreover..."

"Some of you dwarves are pursuing higher forging skills."

"If you say... one of my friends, his teacher is the Supreme Blacksmith, and he also has a brand new blacksmithing technique."

"Do you think this group of dwarves will come?"

Levi looked at it coldly, and invisible pressure enveloped Fran in an instant.

For an instant.

Fran felt great fear.

His eyes were extremely cold, and... filled with the pressure of a superior!

This man is not an ordinary person at all!

After a brief silence, Levi said, "Don't even think about spreading bad words about Twin Tree City."

"You should have some family."

Fran sneered.

Threat?

He really has no family.

"I'm helpless, you can't threaten me!"

Levi was filled with pity, "That's really unfortunate. Fortunately, I have it."

Fran: "???"

Nita admitted that Levi was messing with people's mentality. He dared to say that he was the first, and no one dared to be the second.

With a bang, the door of the workshop not far away opened.

Leon heard the quarrel outside and couldn't help but come out to take a look.

Facing him, he saw a dwarf.

But he didn't recognize it.

When Fran saw Leon, he was stunned for a moment.

What the hell!

Why is this guy here? ! !

Why are you still angry?

Fran's pupils shrank sharply, there were two people among the dwarves who should not be offended.

One is the dwarf queen of Yongen!

If you mess with the queen, she will deprive you of the right to forge, because she is the only supreme blacksmith in the dwarf family.

Asking a dwarf not to forge is as cruel as asking a necromancer not to touch a corpse.

As for the other one, it’s Leon in front of me!

Provoked him.

The queen will let you die extremely cruelly, and the flesh and blood will be fed to the dogs, and the bones will be burned...

Fran didn't even intend to argue with Levi.

Damn it, run away! ! !

Run quickly! ! !

Levi noticed that Fran's pupils suddenly shrank after seeing Leon.

Then, just let go and sprint.

He ran away after a while.

This stunned Levi.

Why did you just run away? !

He couldn't help but look at Leon who was walking over.

"Leon...who were you in the past?"

When Leon heard this, he sighed and said helplessly, "As you can see, I am a waste."

Levi: "?"
