Gold is Justice

Pod looked at Ariel with a somewhat skeptical attitude.

Ariel: "Would you like to learn how to do business and become a businessman?"

At that moment, Doudou's eyes lit up!With his mouth half open, he looked at Ariel in front of him almost excitedly, and for a moment he didn't even know what to say.

"Business... business? Follow... Ms. Marquis... you learn?"

Ariel smiled, continued to nod and said, "You should also know that I started as a businessman, so running a chamber of commerce is something I'm familiar with. When I was in Pelican City before, I would also Many business matters are left to your sister, she is good at accounting, and she also has some ghost ideas in business. You are her younger brother, I think you are also very quick-witted, so there should be no problem."

"I'll do it! I'll do it! Do business? Be a businessman! I'll do it! I'm the best at this kind of work of buying and selling with money! Ms. Marquis, leave it to me! I will definitely live up to expectations!"

Seeing Doudou's excited face now, Ariel's smile became even more joyful.She almost smiled and narrowed her eyes, and said slowly——

"In that case, then I will trust you. How to operate it...I am also a bit busy, so I can't give you anytime and anywhere advice. Well, the Holy Night Festival is coming soon, and the food in our camp needs to be replenished. I will give you five hundred mermaid coins, and you will be responsible for purchasing food supplies from nearby villages. If you can buy enough rations for 3000 people for a month, I will consider you to have completed the task. You don’t have to pay back the extra money Give it to me, you can keep it to yourself. How about that?"

Five hundred mermaid coins... if converted into the previous gold coins, it would be a full five hundred gold coins!No, the mermaid currency is still in the process of depreciating compared to the metal currency of the Blue Bay Empire. Although the blue bay currency can only be used in marginal areas at present, I don’t know why it can still maintain its dominant position over the mermaid currency. But even now, these mermaid coins are worth about three hundred gold coins, right?

Use this money to buy rations for 3000 people for a month?

To be honest, it is indeed a bit challenging, but as long as the price can be lowered as much as possible, then the remaining money will all go into your own pocket?

Thinking of this, Doudou immediately burst into a smile, and quickly nodded in agreement: "Don't worry! Ms. Marquis, the food problem will definitely not worry you! I will definitely complete the task, 100%... no, 120% [-] to complete the task!"

Hearing what he said, Ariel nodded lightly, waved her hand, and said, "That's the best. I'll give you a signing slip. You can take this to the finance department to get 500 mermaid coins, and then it depends on your ability." Yes. I look forward to seeing your results before the Holy Night Festival comes."

Doudou cheerfully carried Ariel's signed bill and went out. It could be seen that his face was full of excitement and greed.It is conceivable that he will try his best to lower the purchase price of farmers' grain, right?

One thousand 640 chapter two betrayer

However, Ariel doesn't hate people being greedy.How can a person who is not greedy be a good businessman?If this young man doesn't show that kind of active action ability now, it will make Ariel feel that there is a problem.

After Doudou left, the smile on Ariel's face immediately subsided.She looked at her guards, nodded slightly, and said, "Keep an eye on him, be careful, and report all his actions to me in detail."

Only then did the guards understand what the leader wanted to do, and the sadness on their faces disappeared as well, and they turned around and went to work.

For the next day and night, Ariel kept listening to the information sent back by the guards.At the same time, he was constantly writing something in his notebook.

"After Pod got the money, he went to show off to the wounded soldiers who shared his dormitory. He was very proud."

"He went to hook up with the sisters in the nurse team, and he was very attentive to his sister Liya who had ignored him before."

"This bastard took the money you gave me, lady, and went to a nearby village to buy a new set of clothes, and tidied everything from top to bottom."

"That guy pulled over a few soldiers who had bullied him before, and asked them to be his subordinates to help carry food."

"When he went to bed at night, he hid the money under his pillow, and even slept soundly."

Listening to the news that kept coming in, Ariel was really dumbfounded.

Of course, the true value of a person cannot be determined in this way.What if this guy made such an act of self-defilement because he found someone staring at him, so as to facilitate his own actions?

When she woke up the next day, Ariel continued to listen to the boy's movements while handling official duties.

"After he got up, he couldn't find his money. He was anxious like an ant on a hot pot, dragging his roommates everywhere to ask. He looked very embarrassed, and he was about to kneel down to his roommate."

"He's found the money hidden under the pillow, and now the kid's complacent again."

"Just now, he went directly to the nurse's station and wanted to take Sister Liya away. He also openly said that he is now your personal disciple, Ms. Marquis. Let others show respect and not disobey him."

"Some soldiers came to him and seemed to want to join the procurement, but he refused."

"After lunch, this bastard finally left the camp, and went to a nearby village to buy food in an element car."

Hearing this, Ariel finally let out a breath.

But just when she was about to breathe a sigh of relief, suddenly!A burst of hurried footsteps came in immediately.

It was none other than Coco who came in.As soon as she saw Ariel, she swallowed quickly, and shouted at Ariel——

"Sister President! Enemy attack!"

For this enemy attack, Ariel seemed to have been mentally prepared for a long time, she nodded and said, "Where did the enemy attack come from? Where is the target?"

Keke waved his palm eagerly, and after a while, he took out a note from his arms and handed it to Ariel, saying, "It's the second detachment of the Fifth Army! They gave up their position to come to support us, After the support was over, they turned to the rear valley where they were responsible for storing food and grass. Just now, the thunder they sent said that a demon army that had been confronting them for a long time now suddenly launched a fierce attack!"

Ariel took a look at the Leiyubao, and immediately understood the seriousness of the situation after reading a few simple lines on it.Then he said: "Immediately let the Eighth Detachment of the Sixth Army and the Fifth Detachment of the Third Army stationed nearby go to support. No, those two troops should already be on the way to support. We will contact them after a while Let's confirm the result."

Coco was taken aback for a moment, as if she didn't quite understand what Ariel was doing now.

But now, since the leader himself has not taken any other countermeasures, Coco can't show much action, and can only wait here silently.

While she was waiting, information about the pods came one after another.

"Mr. Bean Pod is negotiating with nearby farmers, but the folks in the village also want to have a good Holy Eve Festival, so they don't want to sell much."

"He talked there for several hours, but he couldn't buy food. Then he went to the next village."

"The village next door also refused to sell grain. Mr. Bean Pod seemed a little angry. The soldiers who went out with him seemed to be watching his jokes and didn't speak for him."

"He started swearing, but it still didn't work, and he's running to the third village now."

Hearing these endless news, Ke Ke was almost stunned!

She stared at Ariel with wide eyes, and asked, "Sister President, what's going on here? Doudou..."

Ariel waved her hand with a serious expression, and said, "Instead of worrying about him, we have more things to worry about now. Now, go and call me the pod. At the same time, Keke, I need you to do something right away... "

As she said that, Ariel tore off a piece of paper from her notebook and stuffed it directly into Ke Ke's palm. When Ke Ke opened it, she couldn't help but gasped!

But then, she still took a deep breath, nodded slightly, turned and walked out of the office.

And then, until the evening, someone finally ran in again and told Ariel the news.

"The battle in the valley is over! Under the pincer attack of the eighth and fifth teams that provided support in advance, the Demon King's army was repelled again! It's a pity that we seem to have no way to annihilate the opponent, we can only repel them."

For this result, Ariel did not express any dissatisfaction.She nodded, finally showing a long-lost smile on her face.

And after this...

"Let go of me! You let me go! What are you doing? I'm working for Ms. Marquis! Why do you bring me back? Why!"

When he was pushed into the room and saw Ariel who was smiling, Doudou immediately broke away from the guards behind him and said, "Master! They hinder me from purchasing food! They are interfering with our plan Master! Hurry up and scold them! Hurry up!"

Ariel smiled, stretched out her hand to comfort her, and said, "Okay, Doug, I know you really want to help me, and I know that you are suffering. But now there is a little accident on our side, so Let's get our 'surprise' out of the way first."

"Accident?"

Hearing what Ariel said, Doudou suddenly froze.

Immediately afterwards, his body began to tremble slowly, and his whole body began to look a little exhausted.

After a while, he said very nervously: "Ms. Marquis...the money...you said that if I can solve the food problem...the saved money...all...all belong to me? I... I just paid a little in advance..."

This kid is very honest.

Ariel continued to smile and said: "We will discuss how you use the money later, but before that, I would like to thank you first."

Seeing Dou Pod's ignorant appearance, Ariel put on a leisurely attitude and said, "I really want to thank you, because if it wasn't for you, we wouldn't be able to find out so quickly. The spy in our team. Tell me, should I thank you for this kind of thing?"

"spy?"

Doudou obviously didn't expect the topic to turn in this direction.After hesitating for a moment, he seemed to think of something immediately, and quickly waved his hand and said, "I'm not! I'm not a spy! I... I have a sister here, how could I be a spy?!"

Seeing Doudou's frightened appearance, Ariel couldn't help laughing.But at this moment, Coco's voice came from outside the door——

"Of course you are not a spy. With your courage and insight, you are not capable of being a spy."

Pushing open the door, Coco walked in slowly.And behind her, several undead soldiers escorted a person and walked in.Seeing this person, Doudou immediately showed surprise on his face, and couldn't help exclaiming, "Leah?! You...how do you...?"

The nurse named Leah turned her head immediately after seeing the pod, as if even looking at the big boy was an insult to herself.

Ariel winked at Coco, but Coco said with a smile: "We have always wondered why our work was leaked? Even such confidential information as strategic deployment and action plan will be leaked? There are obviously spies in there, but who are the spies? This really gives us a headache."

Afterwards, Ke Ke slowly came to the side of the female nurse, looked at her beautiful face, shook her head involuntarily, clicked her tongue twice, and said: "At the beginning, we all targeted our suspects. Some generals. But many suspicions have no results in the end, and if a large number of secret sentries are launched to stare at all the generals, then the number of people is too many, and it will also arouse the suspicion of the spy. Therefore, we cannot take This method of stalking."

"After thinking about it for a long time, the elder sister suddenly realized that the information leak started when you joined our team. But if you are a spy, then I would think that my younger brother is so capable. It's surprising. But from my observations of you on weekdays, either your acting skills are so outstanding that you can hide it from yourself. Or, you are not at all."

Ke Ke stared closely at the female nurse in front of her, walked around her, and continued: "Although Miss Liya is not a core member of the general level, but because she is a nurse and a woman, it is easy to relax. Be vigilant. In addition, in addition to treating and rescuing the wounded soldiers, the medical station also needs to pay attention to the health status of the generals, so Miss Leah has a lot of opportunities to contact the generals, so that we can deduce our course of action through their words , so as to transmit information.”

Doug looked at this beautiful female nurse almost in disbelief, but now she was completely stunned, not knowing what to say.

Ke Ke continued: "Of course, based on these things alone, we can't be sure that Ms. Liya is the suspect. That's why the elder sister will use you to arrange a false information transmission." Doudou was stunned: "False information? "

Ke Ke nodded and continued: "That's right. The elder sister asked you to buy food for the Holy Night Festival, and you really spread the word as the elder sister planned, and even ran to the little nurse to tell Her situation. Of course, in the eyes of other people, what you are talking about is how you got the status of the president's sister. But in the ears of those with ulterior motives, what she heard is very likely to be the "mermaid army" There's not enough food,' that important message."

"It is precisely because he heard such a message that he needs to spread the news as soon as possible. Then the next thing is relatively simple. We only need to station at each border of the camp to see who is there. If you entered and left the barracks for any reason, and then came back silently, then it is easy to identify the few remaining suspects."

"As long as the scope can be narrowed down in one go, then the next step is to see who among these suspects is likely to obtain confidential information. After a little exclusion, only this Miss Leah is left."

After listening to Coco's introduction, Ariel nodded in satisfaction. At this moment, her eyes turned to Leah, and said with a smile: "If I remember correctly, you should have joined the Mermaid Army for almost a year. Is it time? Our mermaid army has not been established for a long time, and one year is considered a veteran. Did you have the idea of ​​​​betrayal at that time?"

The nurse snorted, looked at Ariel with a little disdain, gritted her teeth and said, "Instead of asking me, why didn't you ask yourself what you did?" I'm curious.She got up from her seat, walked slowly in front of the female nurse, and asked, "What did I do? I'm curious, what did I do to make you betray the mermaid army? Do you know that because of you During the last transfer, hundreds of soldiers were killed and thousands of soldiers were injured to varying degrees. If I, Ariel Garcia, has offended you in any way, feel free to say it. If it is indeed I was wrong, and I changed it immediately without saying a word. But what enmity do those soldiers have with you? Are they going to encounter such an end?"

The female nurse snorted, and she looked Ariel Garcia up and down in front of her, all of a sudden!Those undead soldiers holding her shoulders suddenly turned into dust!And the next moment, she quickly stretched out her palm, and a thin layer of radiant blades immediately solidified on the edge of her palm, and slashed straight towards Ariel's throat!

The female nurse moved quickly, but before her hand knife touched the edge of Ariel's throat, suddenly!An invisible wall abruptly blocked her saber movement.

After realizing that she couldn't kill Ariel in one go, the female nurse was obviously stunned for a moment, but then, she immediately turned around and rushed to the unprotected pod over there. A knife was pressed against his throat.

"Wow!"

"Don't move! Don't move! The one who stopped me just now should be Archbishop Margaux, right? Please show up immediately! Otherwise, I'll cut off this idiot's flesh piece by piece!"

Coco's attention was all on helping Ariel, and of course she forgot to protect her younger brother at the critical moment.

She turned her head nervously, and saw that Doudou was completely at the mercy of others, with a pleading expression in her eyes, and the blade of light pressing on his neck seemed to have slightly scratched his skin, but As soon as the blood that just flowed out came into contact with the power of light, it immediately healed, forming a solidified blood mark on the throat.

Following the order of the female nurse, Margaux, who was hiding in secret, finally moved out of the shadow of the closet.

She raised the staff of light in her hand and slammed it on the ground, saying, "You were sent by the saint? Do you think you can protect your safety by holding such a kid hostage?"

Facing Margot, the female nurse's eyes seemed to be spouting anger!She gritted her teeth and scolded: "Shut up! You are a good bitch! The saint wants to find you to take over, but she is really blind! Even you don't even know your future. What will happen, you should be on our side, but you are standing on the side that should not be on the side!"

It's been so long, and now Margo doesn't care if others scold her in this tone.What's more, she was a little curious, why did this female nurse, who was a bitch, do such a thing again?

Ariel also said at the same time: "You mean... she is on my side? So, this is why you are a spy and put your own life and death aside?"

The female nurse said proudly: "Ariel Garcia! Your despicableness and shamelessness will be forever remembered by the world! You must remember that you will be forever nailed to the pillar of shame in the history of magic. From now on, everyone who gets the magic affinity element will regard you as the biggest enemy! Do you think your enemy is the Demon King Army or the Blue Bay Empire? No, your enemy is destined to continue to get magic affinity in the future Everyone! You can't kill such people!"

Hearing these words, Ariel suddenly understood something.She pinched her chin and thought for a while, then said, "So... instead of saying that you are on the side of the saint, it's better to say, do you think you represent all the magicians?"
