Continental Warriors Yoo Ma

……

Outside the window, snowflakes were falling, and the ground was white.A long black dragon stretched out from the city of Troyes, where most of the city walls were smoked black, slowly squirming forward, and then divided into several strands and flowed to the various monasteries distributed in the fields.

The people who formed this black dragon were civilians who had nothing after the fire in Troyes city.They were petty merchants, laundry workers, weavers, apprentice craftsmen...

In this weather, every minute, civilians who lack food and shelter continue to die.So before the third-level meeting was held and the lord and the big businessmen reached an agreement, Ma Youfu decided to give money to relieve the victims.

However, it is this kind of moral standard that can only be regarded as "ordinary people" by the standards of later generations. In the eyes of people of this era, it is definitely a good person and a moral model.

Anyway, Mayoufu donated several hundred livres each to several monasteries to buy food and cold-proof items, and after providing relief to the victims, within a day, he became a saint with St. People who are shoulder to shoulder.

"The teacher has a noble heart," said the blond girl standing beside the bed.

Compared with the cold wind blowing outside, the indoor environment can be described as paradise.The firewood crackled in the fireplace, and the orange flame throbbed slightly, exuding a charming warmth.The wooden floor is covered with a thick Persian fleece, so it won't get cold even if you step on it with bare feet.There are sweet and tangy fruit snacks on the table, as well as a pot of hot honey water.

The two maids were doing embroidery at the table. Seeing that Joan of Arc had been standing barefoot by the window in her pajamas, they persuaded: "Miss Jeanne, please go to bed and lie down, if you catch a cold, we will really feel guilty and die. And the Count of Rouen will be to blame."

"The teacher will not anger you for this kind of thing, he is a real gentleman." Joan said.

She caressed the wound on her shoulder, and a throbbing pain struck.

Chapter 80 Killing One More Time

At this moment, the door was pushed open, Yofu Ma walked in, and asked the maid to bring a bowl of poached eggs in sugar water to the table.

He saw Joan of Arc wearing a loose cotton pajamas and bare feet, and said, "Jane, you should get out of bed fully dressed, you know, you are still injured."

"It doesn't matter, teacher, my health is very good. The blessings of the Seven Sages allow me to resist the evil spirits." Joan of Arc trotted two steps to Yofu Ma and looked at the steaming food on the table.

"It's a Seris supplement. Well, I can introduce you to the concept of 'food tonic' in Seris culture in the future. Anyway, this bowl of poached eggs in sugar water is good for women who lose a lot of blood - that's what I heard ."

In the hot sugar water, a white and tender poached egg with a distinct yellowish color floated, and there were several jujubes and purple raisins next to it. Ma Youfu put all the blood nourishing food that he could think of and find.

It looks colorful and sells well.

Joan of Arc smelled the wafting aroma, and seemed to be hungry too, so she sat down unceremoniously, picked up the bowl, and took half a poached egg in one bite.

The Queen of Anjou's graceful, reserved, eating posture of playing with knives and forks like creating works of art is certainly pleasing to the eye.But Joan of Arc's natural simplicity, no pretentiousness, and genuine enjoyment of delicious food are also popular.

Jeanne drank a gulp of sugar water and found Yofu Ma looking at him with a smile on his face, and asked, "Teacher, is there any problem?"

"It's nothing, just seeing you eat so sweetly makes me feel a little hungry."

The girl's face turned red.

"Lord Count, really, your words are too rude. Although Miss Jeanne is invincible on the battlefield, she is also a girl!"

"I'm sorry if I embarrassed you. But I've always had a crush on girls with good appetites."

Seeing that Joan of Arc's face turned even redder and lowered her head to sip sugar water like a small hamster, Youfu Ma decided to change the subject.

"Sherwood's reply arrived this morning."

"Ah, is it An Wen's grandfather, the legendary Robin Hood?" Jeanne finally raised her head, and seemed to have lost her shyness.

"Yes, he wrote all the information he knew about the 'Evil Sun Gods' on it." Ma Youfu said.

From the information provided by Oron Yexing, there are only two solutions to the curse in Joan of Arc, given the conditions on earth.

Either find the deity named Quezalcoatl, then complete the feat of slaying the gods, and the curse will disappear naturally.

Of course, this method is basically impossible to succeed, and it is simply ignored.

Then the only way is to win the duel with the Viking leader and achieve the conditions for the curse to be lifted.

Joan of Arc frowned slightly: "That Viking is really strange. He was killed by my own hands, but he didn't leave a body. He disappeared without a trace."

"Since your curse has not disappeared, it means that the other party is not dead yet. Many evil magics have the function of 'death in place'."

"That's right." Joan nodded, "If that's the case, then kill him again."

We still don't know where the Vikings are and what their purpose is.Youfu Ma didn't know where Joan of Arc got her confidence.

But perhaps it is precisely because of this optimism that her charisma shines so brightly that she can be followed by countless people.

Bang!

The door was suddenly pushed open, An Wen rushed in angrily, and said to Youfu Ma, "Someone is looking for you, my lord."

"Who?"

"People of the Medici family, hum!"

From her appearance, it was obvious that the moon elves did not have a very good relationship with their relatives and fellow villagers, the dark elves.

"Okay, I'll take a look." Youfu Ma got up and pressed the elf girl onto the chair: "Okay, An Wen, you should rest and play cards with Jeanne, it will make you feel better. ."

After leaving Joan of Arc's bedroom, a servant came to tell Yo-Fu Ma that the guest was waiting in the study.

Yofu Ma came to the study and found that the person who came was not the middle-aged Francesco he thought, but a young girl.

Wheat-colored skin, pointed ears, pale blond hair and purple eyes.

"Good day, Lord Count of Rouen, I am Vera de' Medici, you can call me Vera."

"Hello, Miss Vera. What are you doing?"

Yoo Ma let the dark elf girl sit down.The servant served a hot drink at the right time, and then quietly withdrew.

Vera picked up the hot honey, took a sip, and breathed a sigh of relief: "Please forgive me, Lord Count. This bad weather makes us, a race that used to live in warm regions, very uncomfortable."

"I came to you today mainly for the Troyes third-level council to be held tomorrow." Vera finally talked about the topic, "As a friend of the Count of Troyes, you can definitely exert influence over him and help us."

"Well, I will definitely consider carefully the request of the Medici family."

"Lord Count, the Medici family hopes to get your support to pass two bills at the third-level parliament."

It seems that the news of the Medici family is very well-informed. It has been seen that the Count of Troyes is firmly controlled by Youuf Ma. Only by finding him can the fundamental problem be solved.

"I don't know what your demands are? If it is reasonable, I will naturally persuade Eduval to agree." Mayof said.

"The city council unanimously believes that the market stall fee levied by the Count of Troyes is too high, and I hope it can be halved." Vera first said an easier appeal and tried to respond.

Ma Youfu nodded: "This is a reasonable request. In fact, in my opinion, the booth fee should be completely reduced, and even warehousing, logistics, accommodation and other services should be provided for merchants for free. Only in this way can the champagne market develop sustainably and prosperously. Trade brings more wealth than that bit of stall rent."

"I don't want to affect your friendship with the Count of Troyes. This kind of radical plan should be put on hold for the time being," Vera said.

She did not expect that Ma Youfu was more open-minded than she thought, and was willing to vigorously support business.It seems that the Seris from the civilized country are indeed more far-sighted than these European nobility.

It's just that it's obviously not a good idea to force the Count of Troyes too hard on such a secondary issue, so Vera still insists on her original appeal.

She continued: "The second demand of the citizens is to formulate a long-term and stable tax policy, and the lords must not increase taxes for no reason and increase the burden on the city."

"Um..." Ma Youfu didn't answer immediately.

Agreeing to the demands of the Medici family, there is no loss to him, anyway, it was the Count of Troyes who cried and fainted in the toilet at the end.

Moreover, the suppression of noble rights and the promotion of industry, commerce and trade are also beneficial to his future planning.

At the third-level meeting tomorrow, he doesn't care about the game between the lord and the citizens.Youfu Ma just wanted to take this opportunity to publicize his North France trading company and make a few big mistakes - cross it out, change it to "powerful investor" and become a shareholder.

But as the Count of Rouen, the new rising force in French politics, the unfathomable Sirius wise man, how can he agree to the demands of others at will?

At the very least, there is a price to pay for it.

Chapter 81 Vera's Resolution

Seeing Yofu Ma sinking into deep thought, Vera knew that she had encountered a challenge.

"The nobles hold the two powers of taxation and justice the most, and will not let them go easily. At the third-level meeting tomorrow, the two sides will definitely have a fierce confrontation around this point. Although the Seris looks more enlightened, he is still a nobleman. One of the members of the Count of Troyes..."

Thinking that she had seen Yoof Ma's plan, the dark elf girl had high fighting spirit and vowed to convince him.

"Lord Count, if you can turn to support the Medici family, then I would like to share some news that you are very concerned about."

"I'm very concerned about the news?" Yofu Ma laughed.

Does she know how to heal Joan of Arc's wounds, or know the conspiracy of the English people, or can she help wipe out the lurking New World Order?

"Yes, my lord. Don't you want to catch the dark elf woman who attacked you and nearly killed you?"

"I really don't think so." Yofu Ma secretly said.

Yofu Ma did not want to bear the grudge between the dark elf woman and the original owner of her body.If you encounter each other by chance, by the way, you can give them the punishment they deserve.But there's really no need to think about it all the time.

The layout is different.Yoof Ma's priorities now are the war between Britain and France, the lingering cult threat, and how to develop his own territory.

Even he spends more time thinking about what to eat every day than thinking about that dark elf woman.

If Vera thought that Yofu Ma had to bite the quilt every night and recite "I'm going to take revenge on that woman" several times with resentment in order to fall asleep, she would be underestimating others.

Youfu Ma shook his head and said, "I'm sorry, Miss Vera. The news you said won't make me change my position."

The dark elf girl was stunned.

How could a dignified aristocrat not care about almost killing his enemy?Shouldn't it be returned tenfold, and the enemy who offends him will be completely destroyed, both mentally and physically?Growing up in Italy, Vera, who had been fascinated by bloody vendettas since she was a child, had difficulty understanding Yofu Ma.

"By the way, it must be that this Seris has a deep city, and can completely control the changes in emotions and expressions, so that I can't catch the flaw!" Vera was determined and decided to continue to persuade Youfu Ma.

"Lord Count, look at me carefully, do you feel familiar?"

Isn't this the starter style that men liked to approach girls in the early days?Why was it used the other way around?

Well, Youfu Ma carefully looked at the pretty girl who was still a little childish in front of him, and then said, "You are a bit like that woman, are you a sister?"

Vera said: "Yes, Lord Count. That woman's name is Valentina, and she is my sister. She is a pure-blooded dark elf, with a ruthless character, very vengeful, and an unbeliever."

The so-called unbelievers are those who have abandoned their beliefs.Without the protection of gods, it is more likely to be corrupted by evil forces.As a result, unbelievers are easily excluded and discriminated against and are marginalized groups in society.

However, most of the unbelievers are strong, with decent military power and resources. Nobles and businessmen sometimes have to cooperate with the unbelievers to do things that are inconvenient to do because of their beliefs.

It's reasonable to think about.The weak will only become more and more devout to the gods and pray for their blessings.Only the strong who are confident that they can control their destiny will dare to abandon their loyalty to God.

"Because of certain things, my sister gave up her faith in the Seven Saints. This led to serious consequences, and the Medici family paid a terrible price. She is an extremely dangerous figure, Your Count, you must not take my sister lightly !"

"I see." Yofu Ma said suddenly, "Since your sister is so dangerous, I can't just sit back and ignore it. I am a spellcaster myself, and an elite moon elf follower, and I know many powerful people. Warrior. How can a beautiful girl like you live under the threat of an evil sister all the time. Any gentleman with a sense of justice will not allow it. I am willing to help."

He still had little interest in capturing Valentina.But it would be a good idea to be able to make friends with the Medici family through this.

Besides, the dark elf girl in front of me is charming, isn't it?

Seeing Yofu Ma who was righteous, Vera felt a little dizzy.

How is this going?I should be the one to help, right?Why do I turn the other way and become this Seris to help me capture my sister?

"What a powerful scheming, what a powerful method!" Vera took a deep breath.The dark elf girl obviously didn't understand what "no desire is just", and continued to go astray.

She knew that it was impossible to persuade Yo-Fu Ma according to the original plan.
