Gold is Justice

Seeing the situation, everyone immediately lowered their bodies and bent forward.Soon, everyone saw the situation ahead.

In a slightly open forest area, an old man was lying on a collapsed tree trunk with his eyes closed.Beside the old man were two attendants, who seemed to be resting with their eyes closed.

"It seems that the idea of ​​using the shade to escape the heat is not our original idea."

Arrow grunted, and then saw the thing that made Buffy nervous-the rotting poisonous spider.

Even though it is daytime, there are plenty of spots of sunlight cast from the shade of the trees.But the black and green body pattern of the poisonous poisonous spider is undoubtedly full of camouflage in this forest.

A total of two rotting poisonous spiders were slowly crawling towards the old man resting on the trunk from left and right.And those two attendants didn't seem to notice this threat at all, they were still sitting there with their eyes closed.

"Should I shout it out?"

Brad asked softly.

Airl thought for a while, shook his head, and said, "The rotting spiders that have not been weakened are powerful. Even if we have the antidote, it's best to avoid confrontation. They ambush humans, so we ambush them. Can it be done faster? solve?"

Cream and Coco nodded, and the undead soldier of the assassin and necromancer rushed towards the back of the two rotting poisonous spiders quickly and silently.Perhaps the two rotting poisonous spiders were so focused on their prey that they didn't even notice the enemies that appeared behind them.

Quietly, Cream and the undead soldiers have already touched the back of the poisonous spider.The moment before the two spiders raised their thick pincers and were about to pounce on their prey...

puff puff.

The sharp weapon had already pierced the heads of the two monsters one step ahead, causing them to slowly fall to the ground after making a shrill scream, without moving any more.

The scream of the rotting poisonous spider naturally woke up the old man who seemed to be asleep.He looked up and looked around, and soon noticed the two dead poisonous spiders in the bushes behind him.Similarly, the member of Song of the Mermaid who saw the mermaid slowly coming out of the bushes.

"Ah...you?"

Accompanied by the old man's question, the two attendants seemed to wake up at this moment.They stood behind the old man one after another, but they didn't seem to care at all about the two poisonous poisonous spiders.

Airl separated Cream and Brad in front of him, walked out with a smile, and said, "Hello, respected gentleman. Although this forest is cool, we still need to be careful. We are the Adventurer's Guild belonging to Pelican Town —A member of Song of the Mermaid. I am the guild leader, Eero Garcia."

The best way to dispel the doubts of strangers is to report your family directly.

After listening to Airl's narration, the old man looked Airl up and down, with a smile on his face, and said, "So it's the guild of Pelican Town? Oh, it's really Thank you. If it weren't for you, I would have almost been in trouble."

Arrow glanced at the two attendants behind the old man, and saw that there was no expression of surprise on the faces of the two rotting spiders.Think back to the positions of the two attendants and the sabers on their waists just now...

At that moment, Airl smiled: "No, no, it would be great if you could forgive us for not meddling in our own business."

Seeing what Ai Luo said, the old man glanced at the bodyguards behind him, and then said with a smile: "Hahaha. President Ai Luo Garcia, my name is Sugar-coated Wine Qiaoguo. These two are my bodyguards. But it’s also my family. Hmm... If you’re from Pelican Town, do you know how to get out of this forest?”

While talking, the old man named Sugar-coated Wine took out a handkerchief and wiped the sweat on his forehead, and said with a pleading look: "The weather outside is so hot, I just wanted to come in to escape the heat, and then walked to Pelican Town. But I didn’t expect to get lost here without knowing it, so I wanted to take a rest first.”

Now it was Airl's turn to look up and down the old man and the two attendants behind him.

Sugar-coated wine Qiaoguo looks like a businessman on a trip, with a large but easy-to-move robe and a waist bag tied around his waist, which seems to contain travel expenses.

However, although he was dressed simply, the old man's clothes were not dirty at all.Not too much wear, looks like the material should be thick, and it should have been well cared for along the way.

As for the two followers at the back, it is even simpler, both of them are dressed as standard adventurers.Except for the helmet, the equipment on the body covers from the shoulders to the toes.Moreover, the prop packages on the belts of the two people also looked bulging, obviously well prepared.Looking at the eyes of these two people and the strong muscles exposed from under the leather armor, it is obvious that they are not the kind of people who bought a set of equipment casually out of curiosity and went on a trip.

The best novels are all on LANWENS: LANWENS.COM

If anything, these two entourages gave Arl a more professional than real soldier, and a very wealthy one at the same time.

"Ah, you guys want to go to Pelican Town? Then come with us! Pelican Town is not far from here, if you go directly to it, it will take less than two hours."

Brad in the back put away his shield and walked up with a smile on his face.Of course, when Buffy appeared in front of the three strangers, the old man raised his brows slightly, obviously looking at her with some curiosity.However, after just a few glances, he quickly withdrew his gaze and continued to face Airl with a smile.

Chapter 280 The Super Powerful Mayor of Pelican

"You want to go to Pelican Town? Yes! Are you looking for relatives? Or entrust our guild?"

To be honest, Arrow is a little upset about Brad's enthusiasm.

After all, after experiencing Viscount Norris' attack, he was a little nervous about the sudden appearance of such a rich man in Pelican Town.

Could it be that Norris's behind-the-scenes mastermind saw that Norris hadn't accomplished anything, so he went out and wanted to mess with himself?

Thinking of this, Ai Luo still maintained a smile on his face, but he became more vigilant when facing the old man.

Sugar-coated wine laughed, stretched out his hand and made a gesture to signal the two sides to talk while walking.

Airl thought for a while, but they could only walk in the direction of Pelican Town together.

While walking, Sugar-coated Wine began to talk with his hands behind his back, with a little longing on his face.

"President Airl, I've actually heard of your guild before I came to Pelican Town. It's really amazing!"

Ai Luo chuckled, and remained vigilant in his heart: "Where is it, you are really flattering yourself."

Tang Yijiu quickly waved his hand and said: "You are really too humble! To be honest, I never thought that the president who could successfully plan such a large-scale guild war would be such a young man." People! Oh, it’s really a wave of waves!”

Airl thought for a while, and said tentatively, "Then...do you have any work to entrust our guild?"

"Consignment? Well... maybe there is indeed something that I want your help with."

Hearing that the old man didn't intend to beat around the bush at all, Airl immediately became vigilant.Then Sugar-Coated Wine went on to say—

"If possible, I would like to ask your guild for help right now. That... how much do you charge for consultation with your guild?"

Airl was silent for a moment: "What do you want to consult? Depending on the question you consult, the price must be different."

Sugar-coated wine laughed and said, "Uh... do you know what kind of person your mayor, the mayor of Pelican Town, is?"

To be honest, this question was really beyond all Arrow's expectations.

He frowned slightly, and the chubby, bearded, chubby, money-loving mayor, Round Cheese, naturally appeared in his mind.

In this world, would anyone want to inquire about the mayor?

But before knowing the old man's real intentions, Arrow decided it would be better to be cautious: "The mayor of Round Cheese is my good friend. But what does he want to do after asking? Let me tell you, you must definitely Don't try to put any bad ideas in my friend's head!"

Originally, Airl thought that the old man would show a slightly different expression after he said something serious like this.Unexpectedly, the old man quickly waved his hand and said nervously: "No, no, no! Bad idea? I didn't intend to make any bad idea! My child, I'm not a bad person, so I'll just tell you the truth. I came to Pelican Town this time to invest in your small town and expand Pelican Town from a small town to a small city! So, I am definitely not a bad person!"

Hearing what Tang-coated wine said now, the members of Song of the Mermaid who had been following behind were stunned.Everyone, you talk one after another, obviously some don't know how to think about what is going to happen next.So they could only look at their president one after another, not knowing how the president would answer.

Arrow also showed a look of surprise.

He opened his eyes wide and said almost in disbelief: "Invest in Pelican Town? Expand Pelican Town? This small border city? Why? Just such a small place with no specialties?"

Regarding Airl's denial, the sugar-coated wine old man narrowed his eyes now, showing a very confident look, raised a finger and shook it as he walked, and said with a smile: "Tsk tsk tsk, young man, what are you doing now?" Don’t you understand? But it’s no wonder that this kind of thing should be discussed with the mayor of Pelican Town. Um…well, let me tell you a little bit, for you young man Take a lesson!"

Immediately, Sugar-coated Wine didn't care about Ai Luo's tangled and speechless expression, and continued to say: "Son, do you think your town has no future for development? Of course, I know that Pelican Town was originally a It started from the iron ore industry, and it has declined since the iron ore disappeared, until now. But, but ah! When I heard that your town successfully held a guild war, I immediately had a huge feeling for your town. The improvement!" The old man raised his finger, squeezed his collar very confidently, and said with a smile: "A small town of 500 people can successfully hold a festival that can accommodate [-] spectators. Large-scale event! The efficiency ratio of one person being able to deal with six outsiders is simply a gold mine! Although I know that the organizer of this guild war announced it under the name of your mermaid song, there is no doubt that , your mermaid song is just a facade. The one that really supports all the planned and arranged activities in the entire guild war is undoubtedly Pelican Town itself!"

This sentence... Strictly speaking, there is nothing wrong with it.So Airl did not speak.

"When I heard that your town has finally successfully completed this guild war, I admire your mayor's organization and planning ability even more! If you want me to say it, the mayor of your town is simply a municipal manager. What a genius! Although I don’t know why he would be willing to be the mayor of such a small place. However, I believe that even if he becomes the mayor of a city with 10 people, he will not have this kind of organizational management ability at all. question!"

Hearing the old man praise the round cheese so appreciatively, the expression on Airl's face naturally showed a little weird color, and the smile that was originally purely coping at the corner of his mouth now couldn't help but turned into a faint wry smile.Ke Ke in the back was a little dissatisfied, and immediately took a step forward to speak, but Ji Lian was sensible, quickly covered the little girl's mouth, and dragged her to the back.

"After learning about your town mayor's management strength, I believe that investing in your town is definitely a good decision that can earn a lot of money in the future!"

Seeing that the sugar-coated wine was still praising the round cheese, Arrow suddenly felt some pity.Then he said: "That...Mr. Qiaoguo, is it too risky for you to plan to invest in our town just relying on the personal ability of our town mayor? If our mayor changes in the future, wouldn't you be All in vain?"

A look of sharpness flashed in Sugar-coated wine's eyes, he raised a finger again, shook it at Ai Luo, and said seriously with a full foresight expression: "Hehe, child, you don't understand this. Do you think I really decided to invest solely because of your mayor? You are too young and too naive."

"What is the most basic thing in a city? A qualified manager, the morale of residents who are united, and all kinds of infrastructure!"

"Pelican Town has successfully held a guild war, so that means that the idle houses in your town have actually been fully utilized, and are currently in the stage where they can be used anytime, anywhere, right?"

"Also, if you hold a guild war and a large number of people come and go, you must have corresponding water pipeline construction! Otherwise, after the two-month long game, your town will be full of all kinds of feces and sewage But in reality, has this happened in your small town?"

Ai Luo tilted his head, and his pity for the old man deepened in his heart: "Ah...well...it really isn't..."

"Yeah!"

Sugar-coated wine waved his hand vigorously, and his eyes sparkled even more!

"This means that the infrastructure of your town is perfectly built! At least in the case of 4000 residents, there shouldn't be any load problems!"

When the town's water pipes were being rebuilt before the guild war, Airl heard from the old woodcutter that the town could indeed support the town after some renovations using the water and gas pipes left over from before. The prosperity of the town itself.

At the moment, he could only nod at the old man.

"Now, young man, do you understand? You know, your town has full potential for development!"

Talking to the happy place, the footsteps of sugar-coated wine can't help but become brisk.This kind of bouncing footsteps made the two attendants behind him a little nervous for the first time, and hurriedly stepped forward to protect them on both sides, for fear that the elderly man in his family would accidentally step on some tree. The root or something fell down and had an accident.

"It's because of this situation that I made up my mind to invest in your town! I want to develop your place into a city! How about it? My idea is good! Hahaha!"

The old man laughed, and before he knew it, everyone walked to the edge of the Shining Forest.

Leaving the forest, looking at the small town standing in front of him under the setting sun, Airl really didn't know what to say.

"So, young man, you just said that you and the mayor are friends? That's why I want to ask you, your mayor... do you have any hobbies? Or do you have any special interests?"

As he said that, Tang Yijiu came over and made a money gesture towards Ai Luobi: "If possible, can you please come with me to meet your mayor, and then say something nice for me? Let When I invest, can I come up with a number that makes both of us feel very 'happy'? Of course, I will never lose your 'introduction fee'. How about it?"

Chapter 280 Five Investors Seeing such a scene, Ai Luo thought about it, and couldn't help laughing: "This matter... Since you are here to invest in our town, Mr. Qiaoguo, it means that our town will develop in the future It’s even better, of course it’s a good thing for us Mermaid Song! How about it, it’s getting late now, why don’t I introduce you to the guest room in the bar in our small town for a night’s rest, and then tomorrow morning, How about I go to meet our mayor with you? As for other aspects... gifts are not used for the time being. Although our mayor also needs to give gifts, there is no need for the first meeting Just send it."

"Okay! Good good! This idea is good! Young man, I am very optimistic about you! When your town develops and grows in the future, I will never forget you as a matchmaker!"

Ai Luo could only laugh along with him, and sent the old man and his two attendants all the way to the Unicorn Bar. After telling the owner of the little spirits that these three guests were his distinguished guests, he led everyone back to the Mermaid Island. Song.

Returning to his guild again after more than half a month, as soon as he opened the door, Airl felt a sense of relaxation stretching from the soles of his feet up to the strands of his hair.

What made him feel even more comfortable was the guild hall that appeared in front of him after opening the door!

The entire guild has been repainted now, and the original wooden structure is now all built with stone bricks. It is neat and tidy, and the more standardized bulletin board is still in the old position, but it looks more solemn.

The interior layout hasn't changed much, but everything has been completely new!That big crystal chandelier hanging right in the middle of the hall looks beautiful too!It should feel good when you light candles from the second floor!

"Wow~~~! So beautiful~~~!"

Seeing the completely decorated guild, Ke Ke cried out excitedly.She ran to the rest area in a hurry, lifted her buttocks and jumped onto a sofa. She opened her arms and hugged a pillow on the sofa and rolled over and over again: "It's so comfortable! It's so soft!"

The rest of the people also lamented the new look of the guild, and walked in while admiring it.

Airl laughed and came to the counter.When I turned my head, I found a stepped cat house built in the corner of the counter.After hearing the commotion outside, the vice president of Song of the Mermaid poked his head out of the cat house, glanced at Airl and said, "You guys are back? Judging by your expressions, things must be going well."

Airl smiled, opened his pocket, took out the magic spar from it, and threw it at the monster without saying a word.

Napa, who seemed very lazy just now, was taken aback for a moment, but when she realized that it was a huge magic spar that was flying over in the air, its figure rushed out of the cat house like lightning, and clung tightly to it in mid-air. This magic spar!In an instant, the magic spar as big as a palm immediately emitted a strong light, and some faint magic circles began to appear beside Napa, and many magic circuits began to go back and forth along the body of this monster. cycle!

After a while, the power in the magic spar was completely absorbed by the cat, turning into a pile of ashes and falling to the ground.

"how do you feel?"

Arrow raised his hands, propped his chin on the counter, and said with a smile.

The fur of this cat monster that had a little golden luster now showed bursts of color, and after changing many colors one after another, it returned to the golden fur again.It slowly landed on the counter, opened his eyes, and those sapphire blue pupils seemed to be filled with some wonderful power.
