"Did I allow you to look back at me?!"
"No... no no no... I don't dare... please... don't want me... I have only you, my husband, except for little Nai Shuang...! Woooooo... Woooo..."
Afterwards, only those messy and slight weeping were left in the cellar.
For Coco, who was now putting her ear to the cellar door, it was a bit difficult to judge the current situation.
After hesitating for a long time, the little necromancer finally made up his mind, stretched out his hand, and lifted the lid of the cellar entrance.
As the candlelight in her hand shone into the cellar, Coco cautiously entered the space that was usually used to store some idle materials.
She lit a few other candles in the cellar to make the light a little more plentiful.
After looking around the cellar, I saw that the macaroon lady was tied to a post with her head turned away, not daring to look at her husband.And that paladin, Bath, was still tied to another pillar, and even the position of his head was fixed, so he couldn't move.
Coco smiled slightly, walked up to Mrs. Macaroons, and helped her untie the rope slightly.
After freeing her hands and feet, the woman rubbed her wrists, which had been bound for almost a day, looking a little surprised.
Coco nodded lightly, took out a few pancakes from her arms and handed them over, said with a smile, "I've been tied up for a day, are you hungry? Eat."
Mrs. Almond Cake looked at the crepes, and after thinking about it, she clutched her stomach, as if she wanted to pick it up but didn't dare to.
She turned her head and glanced at her husband next to her, but Buzz's expression didn't change, he just looked at her silently.
After a long time, the paladin nodded slightly.
"Then...then...thank you..."
Mrs. Macaroon took the pancake, walked quickly to her husband, tore off a small piece, and was about to feed it to Buzz.
But Bass turned his head away and said coldly, "Eat first, I'm not hungry yet."
Mrs. Almond Cake showed some surprise in her eyes, but since her husband said he wasn't hungry, she didn't force her. She stuffed the torn pancake into her mouth, chewed it twice and then swallowed it whole.
Perhaps, it is really too hungry.After tasting the food, the woman immediately started gnawing on the pancakes.After gnawing off a piece of pancake like a storm, she wiped the oil on her mouth, rubbed her stomach a little, and put down the pancake in her hand.
Ke Ke looked at the woman with a smile all the time. After she finished eating the pancake, she nodded slightly and said, "Do you want to go to the bathroom? If so, I will go with you once."
Mrs. Macaroons turned her head and looked at her husband at the side again. This time, her husband's eyes showed a bit of sternness.This made her shake her head hastily, and said, "No...not for now, on the way here...I ate and drank little, so I don't feel like it's convenient..."
Ke Ke snorted: "So, you still think we abused you two captives?"
Mrs. Almond Cake was slightly taken aback, but immediately sensed the sarcasm in Ke Ke's words, and quickly shook her head: "No, no, no! I...we don't dare..."
"Hey, I'm hungry."
It was also at this time that Bass next to him opened his mouth and shouted that he was hungry, and the macaroon lady quickly tore another piece of pancake and stuffed it into her husband's mouth.
Seeing that Buzz is now willing to eat the food of Mermaid Song, Coco knows that her first step plan has been successful.
After Bass devoured a piece of pancake, she immediately laughed and said, "It seems that you have a big opinion on our guild? Why, a smuggler like you can still be so aboveboard, You can also rely on the name of a paladin to act for your final dignity, but we are a guild that fights against your smuggling, but you call it a gang of robbers? Your double standard is really slippery." The macaroons on the side Madam's face flushed slightly, and she lowered her head even more.
"Hey, I haven't had enough!"
But as Buzz yelled, the woman quickly began to tear the pancake in her hand again and put it into her husband's mouth.
While eating, Bass hummed and said, "Don't talk so much nonsense! Do you think it's a bright and just thing for you to crack down on smuggling? I was escorted back by you along the way, and Du Lengjia was detained by you." Carry it with you! If you are not a gangster, you should have turned in Du Lengjia? Huh! If you didn’t turn it in, it proves that you are a gang of robbers! Am I right?”
Ke Ke still remembers Arrow's tricks when he dealt with the mud and swamp before.
For such a guy with strong self-esteem, the first thing to do is to destroy his self-esteem.After all, I am the one with the upper hand, and if I want to negotiate, I absolutely have to overwhelm the opponent in terms of momentum!
Fortunately, Coco had already made some preparations before coming in.So now the little girl sneered confidently and said, "Why do you think we didn't report it? Hehe, Du Lengjia is a good thing. How much money can you make by smuggling it? Do you think such a profitable thing , will our royal family just let this kind of thing continue to exist?"
Originally, Coco planned to take advantage of information asymmetry and spread false news to directly overwhelm this paladin.
But I didn't expect that what Bass said next made Coco stunned for a moment.
"The royal family? What does smuggling have to do with the royal family? Hey, Necromancer, are you kidding me? Seeing how young you are, are you normal?"
Yes, Coco was stunned.
For more than two years, this necromancer has been receiving education on various levels of economics from President Arrow.Therefore, the way of thinking cannot be said to be completely transformed into an economic man, at least it is self-evident that it has been affected.
But she obviously didn't expect that the paladin in front of her couldn't understand the close relationship between the smuggling and the damage to the interests of the royal family?
At the moment, Ke Ke was still a little unwilling to give up, quickly shook his head, and said, "No! Your business of smuggling is completely harming the interests of the Blue Bay Empire, do you know it?"
"Damaging the interests of the Blue Bay Empire? Ha! Are you kidding me?"
Buzz's eyes were full of disdain, he turned his face at his wife, and said——
"Hey, wife, do you understand what this necromancer is saying?"
Mrs. Macaroons thought about it, and immediately shook her head like a rattle.
Bass continued to put on a haughty face, and sneered, "Isn't the smuggling and smuggling just because we didn't sell those Dulenjia at a high price, and the manufacturer of this drug couldn't make more money? But you have to know that it is because of us who are smugglers that the price of Du Lengjia is not so expensive! Those ordinary people can buy these cheaper special medicines at a cheaper price!"
"After all, I have always followed the law of a paladin. I have dedicated my life and my beliefs to ordinary people! Hey, what is the second rule of a paladin?! "
Mrs. Almond Cake was stunned, and quickly stopped tearing the pancakes, and said loudly: "The second rule of the Holy Knight Code, I will dedicate my life to the people, I will become a shield to protect the lives of the people, and I will also be a shield to break the shackles of the people. sword!"
Hearing his wife finished reciting it, Bass nodded vigorously again: "That's it! Huh, necromancer, don't make any excuses and reasons with me. We smuggle so that more people can use it cheaper. You can buy cheaper medicine at a lower price! You can’t deny this anyway! So, you want to teach me a lesson? Go back and study hard before you come back!”
In an instant, Ke Ke was stunned speechless.
She was not speechless because she had no way to refute, but because there were too many points to counterattack, so much that she didn't know which direction to start counterattacking for a while, it would be better.
Too many and too complicated thoughts caused the brain thinking ability of this little necromancer to shut down for a while, and after a long time, she shook her head quickly, tried her best to organize her words, and said, "No... …No! It’s true that your smuggling prices can be cheaper, and it’s true that ordinary people can buy your smuggled items at a cheaper price, but the reason why you are cheaper is because you evade a large part of the tariffs due to smuggling ..."
Chapter 590 Convincing People is an Art
"Hmph! Is the country paying less tax for this tax or that tax?"
Bass has a clear expression on his face, like a hero who is about to die with righteous words——
"There is a personal income tax for working, and there is a tax for the guild. There is a tax for housing, and there is an inheritance tax when you die. This tax and that tax. The sum of all kinds of taxes is not a small amount! There are so many The money can be taken, why are you still collecting taxes on things that should have been sold to other people? This is completely a tool for the royal family to collect money! Let me tell you, these taxes should not have been collected in the first place!"
Now, Coco began to regret that it was she who stood here, not her president.
At the same time, she also had a deeper understanding of why her guild leader was able to win so many games so easily, and why she was willing to join the guild of Mermaid Song in the first place.It was also from this moment that this little girl began to deeply regret that in the past two years, she spent most of her time learning magic knowledge from Napa, the vice president, and her knowledge of economics was often just Just listen to it.
If she can understand why the country needs to collect tariffs, will she still be stunned and have nothing to say now?
"Total... all in all!"
Coco's little face couldn't help but flush!She tried her best to stretch out the steel staff in her hand and waved it at Bass in front of her, and said loudly——
"I advise you to be obedient, and it is best to obey our president's orders! Our president is not a person who likes to kill people so much, so if you are willing to be obedient, our president may not only not kill you, but I would also like to let you join us in the mermaid song..."
When he said this, Keke suddenly realized that he had said something wrong.
why?
Because when negotiating, the most taboo thing is to directly confess what you most want to achieve.
And this little girl actually confided this ultimate goal directly because of her anxiety for a while.It is conceivable that after hearing the news, what kind of weird expression appeared on the face of Bass in front of him.
"You want me...to join your guild?"
Bass's face was full of doubts.
"Ah! No! That... also counts!"
Ke Ke quickly put on an expression of indifference, pursed her mouth, and said hummingly——
"If you want, it's okay to join our guild! But the premise is to be obedient! In addition... if you join our mermaid song..."
The little girl rolled her eyes and glanced at Mrs. Macaroons next to her. She immediately had an idea in her mind: "If you join, the affairs of our guild members will naturally be the affairs of our guild itself. Maybe Our guild leader will help you find your son! Searching with the power of our guild will naturally be more efficient than the two of you blindly searching!"
Hearing what Ke Ke said, the macaroon lady next to her obviously became excited all of a sudden!But just as she was about to say something, she immediately received a very stern look from Bass, and couldn't help shrinking back the words that had just reached her mouth.
"Hehe, so, this is your condition?"
Bass tilted his head back, leaned flatly against the pillar, and said with a smile——
"If you think about it carefully, even though your guild has a powerful vampire and a terrifying necromancer like you, in fact your guild doesn't have a strong magic defense. Hmm, so, you are urgently The land needs a paladin to join... So, you just set your sights on me? Hehe, interesting, this is really interesting."
Ke Ke couldn't help but licked her lips, cheered up her spirits again, highlighted that tough look, and said, "That's right! So, what's your answer?"
Bass lowered his head and glanced at the little girl in front of him.After rolling his eyeballs several times, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth involuntarily, and he said slowly: "It's really too late today, please allow me to think about it again. I want to think about it a little more time. .”
Although Ke Ke is only 14 years old, the past few years of hard work has made her very clear that the person in front of her is not thinking about it at all, but is starting to bargain.
So... Obviously, the way of exposing Lao Di in advance has made this girl fall into a passive position.
There is no way, now Ke Ke can only slap her face and continue to be fat, and said proudly: "Well, if you want to think, then I will give you time to think about it! I will ask you again tomorrow, and I hope you can give me some time to think about it." A satisfactory answer. Otherwise, although our president doesn't like killing people very much, but if there is really no other way, I can't guarantee that our president will not make up his mind! That's it!"
After saying these words, Coco turned her eyes to Mrs. Macaroon again, as if she was making a last effort: "Do you really not need to go to the bathroom?"
Mrs. Macaroons still shook her head.
"Well, in this case, you re-tie yourself with the rope, and then I will let my undead soldiers tie your hands to the post. Then, I will let my undead soldiers watch here all night You guys. In this way, I can loosen your ties, and you can relax a little. But, please don’t let me down. "
While talking, while doing.
After tying up Mrs. Macaroni with Xiaobai, Ke Ke left the cellar door as if fleeing, and went back to her room after another harsh word or two.
After this confrontation, the necromancer's mind is probably only caused by his own troubles, and he hopes that he will reveal the old truth in advance and try not to let the elder brother know...
But on the other side, in the cellar.
As the candlelight slowly extinguished, Mrs. Macaroon also sat on the ground leaning against the pillar, closed her eyes silently, and said, "Husband, I think... if we can really join the song of the mermaid and survive, maybe we can ..."
"Heh, you can survive by joining the Song of the Mermaid? What are you thinking, stupid woman."
In the darkness, Buzz's eyes looked very stern——

"Joining a guild requires formal registration. If our upline knows that we have not only lost Du Lengjia, but also joined an inexplicable guild, what do you think will happen to the two of us next?"
Mrs. Macaroons looked very worried, but indeed, she had no way to refute her husband now.
"But... my husband..."
"Don't worry, don't they want me to join them? I already have a little idea. As long as the time is right, I will make good use of this method to escape."

Early in the morning, after Arrow sorted out his clothes a little, the first thing he did when he walked out of the room was to go to Cream's room.
After knocking on the door, but there was no sound from inside, Airl tried to push the door... The door was not locked.
