Gold is Justice

"It doesn't matter whether it's the past, the present, or the future. Song of the Mermaid, Pelican City, Marginal Province, as long as they are still within my control, there will never be a place for Du Lengjia!"

The proposal was rejected again, and even Ke Ke, the necromancer, could feel the tension in the atmosphere.She secretly held her staff, always on guard.

And those Thunder Army soldiers now showed fear and panic one by one, and two of them even came forward to hold Fleisch, as if they wanted to pull him away.

However, Fleisch broke free immediately——

"President Ariel, let me mention another profitable business. This business is legal in many places, and the money comes in very quickly. Even some noble lords will support the hosting, even in the capital of the Blue Bay Empire. The corresponding place of business is located."

Having said that, Fleisch paused for a moment——

"Before, because of your status as the president, I thought you might not be able to accept it. But now, if you can't use the gambling industry and the business of selling Du Lengjia to make huge profits, then I'm afraid this is the only way to do it." .”

Hearing this, Cream frowned and said, "This is impossible, our president won't like this..."

"But this thing makes money! President, there must have been women who came out of the red-light district in the guild, right? If we open a red-light district in Pelican City, we will be able to empty the wallets of those rich people as soon as possible!"

"What are you talking about! Say it again!"

As soon as Fleisch's words fell, Ke Ke over there suddenly jumped up!

She drew out her staff without hesitation, and five undead soldiers stood beside her at this moment.



The first thousand and 440 seven chapters determine the character of the situation

The girl blushed and shouted angrily——

"Shut your stinking mouth! Apologize to Sister Margaux!"

Fleisch was stunned for a moment, but he ignored Ke Ke, but continued: "I know the president doesn't like coercion, but it doesn't matter! I did some research before, we can recruit women who volunteer, absolutely not There will be coercion, but no violence. If there are not enough people, we can go to other cities to find them. I believe that as long as the money is available, there will definitely be many women who are willing to do this—"

Ariel: "Mr. Fleiser, you can leave now."

Finally, Ariel couldn't bear it anymore, and called out to stop.

At this point, Fleisch didn't say anything more, and the words that came to his mouth stopped abruptly in an instant, as if he knew that he should stop.

After that, the man didn't say anything more.

He just looked at Ariel in front of him silently, then a wry smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and even more disappointment appeared in his eyes.

His head began to nod slightly, nodding, smiling wryly, and retreating.

At this moment, what is his mood?

do not know.

All he knew was that he silently walked among his colleagues in the Thunder Army, sneered once again, turned around, and led everyone out of the guild hall without looking back.

At this time, the street outside should still be very hot...

It's just that I don't know if such heat can melt the coldness in this man's heart?

----

Walking out the door, the heat wave on the street made Fleisher's head immediately roll off a bead of sweat.

But in his heart, he didn't feel any warmth at all, instead it was filled with a chill as if he had been betrayed.

The man gritted his teeth and walked forward step by step.

And the Thunder soldiers behind him are now looking at me and you, looking very embarrassed, not knowing what to say for a while.

Today, it will be another game.

It's just that today's game has no meaning for Fleisher.

No matter who wins or loses between Song of the Mermaid and the eldest princess, or how many spectators gather for this match, everything is no longer important.

After all, what's the point of having all the fun that's left after you've lost your biggest moneymaker?

"General, what shall we do next...?"

As dusk approached, the game should be almost over.

A soldier of the Thunder Army looked at the sullen leader with a wine glass in his hand with a little worry.

It's fine if you don't mention it, but now that someone mentions it, Fleisch couldn't help biting his teeth hard.He raised the glass, gulped down the wine in the glass, and put the glass heavily on the table, his face became more gloomy.

"Do you think I was wrong?"

Fleisch opened his mouth, looking at the good brothers who were born and died together beside him.

The soldiers looked at each other in blank dismay, not knowing how to answer for a while.

Fleisch shook his head, and continued: "I may not have a good brain, but I am also very grateful to you, who are willing to always be by my side and help me pull such a team together. .I really think from the bottom of my heart...I want to let everyone live a good life! Let us all stop having the kind of lack of food and clothing, and then being bullied by those vicious noble lords day!"

After thinking for a while, a soldier said, "General, I hope you don't think I'm flattering you. But I also think, why don't you make money when there is such a good opportunity to make money? In this world, we are not the only ones. It’s not like we’re the only ones who open casinos here. Du Lengjia sells things like this all over the Blue Bay Empire. Why can’t it be done here under the hands of that woman? Why is that?”

When the other soldiers heard that someone was coming up, they naturally joined in.Fleisch nodded vigorously, and said: "You can't figure it out? I can't fucking figure it out either! If the president thinks that we shouldn't sell Du Lengjia and pay money to the empire indirectly, then why gamble?" No? If you think that gambling may bring bad things to some weak-willed people, then the brothel will do it? Do you still think that I will really use coercion to do it like those heartless old bustards? Make a kiln?"

Having said that, Fleisch pointed to a soldier next to him, and said, "You, when you attacked Beer Town with me, you also went with me to see the conditions inside those kilns, right?" A soldier immediately nodded and said, "Well, General, that scene...was really miserable."

Fleisch patted his thigh: "That's right! It's so miserable! Those old bustards didn't treat those women as normal people at all. They were beaten and scolded at will, and some poor women even had their hands and feet amputated! They gave birth I couldn't get treatment for the disease, so I could only be thrown into the stinky ditch behind and wait to die slowly... That scene, I still have lingering fears when I recall it..."

The man stretched out his hand to wipe the corner of his eye, and let out a long sigh.The soldiers on the side went on to say to the other soldiers: "We quickly killed those bustards, killed the bodyguards inside, and rescued all the girls. We also helped them find medicine and cure their diseases, so that They don’t need to be beaten and scolded. Although the situation of our team was not very good at that time, it can be regarded as doing what we can.”

"Next, we originally wanted to send those poor women home, but after asking, we found out that these women had no homes long ago. They had no relatives and no reason, and they had no means to support themselves. So the general decided at that time that if they were willing to continue working, then the Thunder Army could protect them so that they could be dignified prostitutes."

The soldiers nearby were a little fascinated, and after the soldier stopped narrating, he hurriedly asked, "And then?"

The soldier wanted to continue, but Fleisch stopped him with his hand. After a long sigh, he said, "Later... Unfortunately, our strength is too weak. At that time, the Thunder Army Including me, there were only a hundred people. Soon, the Imperial Army sent a regular army of thousands of people and several adventurer guilds to hunt us down. We had no way to take those women away, so we had to Abandon them and run."

This result is indeed embarrassing, causing the soldiers to shake their heads and sigh.

Fleisher clasped his hands tightly, gritted his teeth and said: "It can be seen that opening a red-light district is completely legal! I have practiced it myself! As long as you don't beat, scold and torture those women, let them come and go voluntarily. It’s a legitimate business, why do you have to refuse this kind of business that can make a lot of money? I can’t figure it out...I really can’t figure it out!”

Another glass of wine was called, and Fleischer held it up and gulped down several more gulps.

He put down his wine glass, wiped the foam from the corner of his mouth, and looked even more melancholy and depressed.

At this time, the sun had completely set, and the hot weather was finally getting cooler.

The crowd after watching the game has now gradually poured into the city, spreading out in various streets of this city that never sleeps, tasting local food while talking loudly about how exciting the daytime game is.Even the duel between the bard and the eldest princess is so exciting and interesting, with the different tunes played by the bard in different situations, it can touch people's hearts all the time.

Seeing this open-air tavern getting lively, another soldier rolled his eyes, turned to Fleisch, and said, "General, there is actually a sentence that I have been hiding in my heart for a long time... I haven't said it yet. No Do you know if I can ask?"

Fleischer waved his hand and did not object.Seeing this, the soldier said: "Why do we have to stay under that woman's command? After all, she is also the mistress of the Blue Bay Empire, and she might sell us at any time. And we have There are thousands of brothers, what's wrong with such an army? If you want to, general, we can directly declare control of Pelican City, so..."

"drink!"

Before the soldier could finish speaking, Fleisch immediately yelled!

He raised his head and stared at the soldier closely, his eyes were bloodshot, but his attitude was extremely resolute——

"I will never allow anything to hurt Song of the Mermaid to happen! If you let me hear this kind of thing again in the future, be careful with your fingers!"

The soldier was taken aback, quickly shut his mouth, and lowered his head.

However, such a move naturally made the soldiers beside him feel strange, and another soldier asked: "General, you... don't you really like that imperial mistress?"

As soon as this topic was mentioned, intriguing smiles appeared on the faces of several soldiers.

It's just that soon, when they saw that the general's face was completely devoid of any peach blossom color, they realized that they were completely wrong.

"The mistress of the empire? Heh... what is she... If it's not for the sake of face, I don't care about ten more. What about the count? Now that Emperor Lanwan is in front of me, I dare to cut it off! "

Fleisch rubbed his face, rubbed his hands involuntarily with the strength of alcohol, and his eyes dimmed: "That woman...what is that woman...she even has my brother's only son The protection is not good... I thought she protected my nephew and jelly, she must be a very good woman...but in her hands... my brother's only precious son not only lost his magic power And... even lost an arm..."

As he spoke, Fleisher seemed to have touched some soft places in his heart, and the corners of his eyes were involuntarily glistened.Such a big man, but now he raised his hand like a child, wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes with his slightly dirty sleeve, took a deep breath, his eyes turned red, and continued: "But! But... Jelly respects her and is willing to stay in her Mermaid Song! Moreover, she is willing to give him the status of a full-fledged member of Mermaid Song. Such a status is worthy of respect in the entire Marginal Province, right? Because of this , I think she can still protect Jelly more or less."

"Jie is my brother's only son... I didn't treat my brother well when he was alive, and now I regret it, so as long as I can protect Jelly, I can do anything, I can do anything. Don't even care!"

"Jelly is a member of Song of the Mermaid, so I will strengthen Song of the Mermaid's strength! Song of the Mermaid needs money, so I will try my best to get money for Song of the Mermaid!"

"Before I was an uncle, I couldn't do anything for him, but from now on! I will try my best to treat him well... I will give him all my best things, the best things ! Even in the future, I will hand over all the command of the Thunder Army to him! You must all obey his orders! Do you know?!"

Obviously, Fleisch is completely drunk now.He had a big red nose, squinted his eyes, and he didn't know what nonsense he was talking about.

It's just that hearing these words in the ears of the soldiers of the Thunder Army next to them, I'm afraid it won't be so pleasant.

Even though they all knew that the reason for going to the Border Province now was that the Thunder Army had been chased and intercepted by the Imperial Army outside. They had no choice but to act as a last resort, but when they heard that their leader was going to hand over everything in the entire army to a cripple, The soldiers still had some ideas after all.

"So...General, the reason why you got close to that brave man...is also because of Master Jelly?"

"nonsense!"

Fleisch patted the table and said vaguely——

"I don't know how much of that so-called brave man is water and how much is real! But if he has the guts to come alone, I have to be on guard! If he wants to attack Song of the Mermaid... then wouldn't my nephew also Do you want to suffer? I want to protect him...do I need any reason?"

The soldiers were just listening at first, but at this moment, they all stood up and sat still.

It's just that Fleisher, who was facing them, hadn't noticed all this. He drank heavily again, covered his head, and the sadness in his heart also involuntarily emerged again——

"Brother... woo... my dear brother... you died so miserable... so miserable...! I couldn't come to see you for the last time... I couldn't see my sister-in-law for the last time either... …! Wooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooen ...Brother...I'm sorry for you...I'm really really...sorry for you! Brother..."

He was crying really loudly.

The sound was so loud that the diners around were all looking sideways at this side, with contempt or disgust on their faces.

Those soldiers now looked very dull, and they didn't even know if they should stop their generals.

However, when Fleisher used alcohol to vent all the pain in his heart, a hand was gently placed on his shoulder.

"Brother... woo woo woo..."

"Uncle, let me help you go back and rest."

A 16-year-old boy is now standing behind Fleisch.

He took out two long and narrow pieces of iron from his arms and clamped them under Fleiser's armpit, while putting his arm on his shoulder.

At that moment, Fleisch's seemingly incomparably strong body was easily supported by the one-armed boy and placed on his shoulders.

This scene was really too weird, even the soldiers didn't think, how could this thin boy have so much strength to help their general up?However, looking at the gentleness and firmness in the eyes of this one-armed boy, some dissatisfaction with him just now has dissipated a little involuntarily.

"Master, let us come."

Several soldiers stood up quickly, wanting to come over to help.

However, Jelly smiled at them and shook her head lightly: "Let me and my uncle be alone for a while, there are too many things in the guild recently, too busy, and I have no chance to be able to talk to someone I have never met. Let’s have a good chat with the uncle you met. You can just go for a stroll, I know where my uncle sleeps, and I will send him back.”
