Weird Star Witch
Chapter 592: Rumors are also part of strength
Rudolph asked Mackenzie to inform all crew members that Golden Anchor Harbor was very safe and that everyone could go ashore to rest after making arrangements.
The crew members who are accustomed to docking at pirate ports rarely come to such a large port controlled by the God's Chosen Apostle, and they are still a little uncomfortable seeing the smooth stone road.
Their first goal when they came ashore was the bathhouse, which they longed for even more than the tavern. Of course, whether this bathhouse was serious or not was unclear.
Rudolph, Yvonne, Cooper, Drake and others went to the Golden Anchor Castle to rest under the personal guidance of Butler Wenler.
Compared with the alchemist's city, this city does not have so many street lights and public motorcycles. The buildings are actually taller and more willing to invest in them.
The tall and majestic Golden Anchor Castle appears at the end of the field of vision. On the other side of the moat is the castle of the Golden Anchor family.
The black city wall is covered with red copper-colored alchemical copper wires. These alchemical copper wires are swimming with electric light and are actually in an excited state.
The black stone walls represent tradition, and the golden and red copper wires represent modernity. The knights standing on the city wall represent tradition, and the thick city defense guns represent modernity. This castle actually began to take on a cyberpunk style.
In fact, the real defense force of the castle is the Marquis's Golden Anchor Knights. Once the knights are destroyed, the castle will be just a dead thing and cannot resist for long. The symbolic significance of this castle is greater than its actual significance.
Butler Wenler said that the logistics were tight, and even a lower-standard banquet would be enough to fill a ten-meter-long table with food and fine wine.
To Rudolph's surprise, the banquet started with Kedrick's mother coming to see Rudolph in person.
In the aristocratic inheritance law, illegitimate children have no inheritance rights. Only children born to noble wives have inheritance rights, and daughters also have inheritance rights. Kedrick is the fourth heir to the Marquis of Golden Anchor, which means that he is the fourth child born to the Marquis' wife.
The Marquise was already quite old. She was dressed up to attend. The first glass of wine was to thank Rudolf for helping her youngest son to be promoted and become a young fifth-level knight. Kedrick has obtained such strong foreign aid, which is something the Golden Anchor family likes to see.
The Marquise had a simple meal, and after taking two bites, she left the banquet hall on the grounds that she was not feeling well, and asked Butler Wenler to entertain the distinguished guests.
As soon as the Marchioness left, the pirates in the banquet hall became much more natural.
Rudolph watched as Mackenzie and the first mate feasted, drinking from large glasses and shaking the red wine in the glasses with a smile.
He turned to Steward Wenler and whispered, "Steward Wenler, before we finish transporting the supplies from Codor Port, I hope you can cooperate with me in a play."
"Oh? What show?"
Butler Wenler was very interested when he heard about the acting.
The last big drama led by the Forge was the Giant Treasure. The truth about the Giant Treasure was slowly revealed. There was no treasure at all. It was the Forge hunting for relics, which made the pirates on the ancient sea happy in vain. The real treasure must be It was collected in advance by the furnace.
Butler Wenler knew about Mr. Forge's reputation. The wizards of the ancient sea would say that Mr. Forge was a despicable person. Eric the Red also proved that this rumor was true.
Rudolph turned his head and motioned to the intelligence leader Zachary to come closer. Butler Wenler understood that what the furnace was about to say might be related to intelligence.
"Butler Wenler, I hope you can cooperate with me and spread a message in the ancient sea, saying that the Golden Anchor family has taken out a precious level 8 alchemy bullet and handed it to the furnace.
The specific words don’t matter, it doesn’t matter whether it’s thanking Kedrick for helping Kedrick, maintaining the friendship between the Golden Anchor family and the furnace, or entrusting me with transporting logistical supplies. Even if you spread the news and say that you never gave me a level 8 alchemy bullet, it’s fine. "
Butler Wenler understood what Rudolph meant: "Mr. Furnace, do you want both sides of the ancient sea to pay attention to whether you have a level 8 alchemy bullet?"
"Yes, it doesn't matter whether I have level 8 alchemy bullets. It is very important for others to discuss whether I have level 8 alchemy bullets. As long as they discuss it, they will doubt whether I really have it. For me, this is enough ”
Butler Wenler said with a smile: "I understand, level 8 alchemy bullets are most powerful when they are not fired."
Rudolf smiled and said:
"Exactly. What I want is deterrence. Everyone knows that I am the Southern Cross Assassin. If I want, I can assassinate anyone.
If I have a level 8 alchemy bullet in my hand, if the Evil God Cult wants to target me, it will have to dispatch a level 8 cardinal priest.
No matter which church, there are very few cardinal priests. If a cardinal priest leaves the temple, then I think a level 7 knight will not miss this opportunity for promotion. There are many people who want to kill an eighth level cardinal priest. The cost of their witch hunt will be very high, and I will be safer in front of the evil cult.
Rumors are also part of strength, especially rumors that make others believe and fear you. "
"I understand, Mr. Furnace, please rest assured that we will cooperate with your intelligence leader to let the north and south sides of the Saragu Sea begin to discuss the issue of level 8 alchemical bullets." Steward Wenler said:
"What makes me feel ashamed is that we do not have level 8 alchemy bullets. I will pay attention to the news about level 8 alchemy bullets and apply for help from the royal family to obtain a level 8 alchemy bullet for you to use."
"Thank you very much."
Whether Butler Wenler's last polite words were genuine or not, it was enough if they were willing to spread the news that Rudolph needed.
In this way, the Volcano Shipping Co., Ltd. just established by Rudolf will become safer, and ordinary cats and dogs will not come to trouble.
Butler continued, "If you are considering your shipping company, I suggest you register it formally in Golden Anchor Port."
Rudolph said, "Formal registration? I'm sorry, I just have this plan, and I don't know much about the specifics."
Zachary added quickly, "Captain, if you pay taxes to Golden Anchor Port after formal registration, you can run a shipping company normally, instead of doing what pirates did before."
"I see, then register." Rudolph asked again, "If I go to the port of the Alchemy Council, do I have to register and pay taxes to them?"
Butler nodded, "The rules for sailing on Saragu are like this, formally register at the port, pay taxes once when leaving the port, and pay taxes again when entering the port."
"In other words, I have to pay taxes twice for making money once? Isn't this robbing money?"
"It sounds unreasonable, but it is true. Mr. Furnace, we can exempt you from taxes for transporting military supplies this time, and we will also pay you a generous reward."
"That's great."
