Some small vendors ran away urgently with their soft, but the wooden huts they left behind also lost their owners.
Stad led his troops to easily occupy this place, and the brothers no longer need to sleep in the forest. The horses were **** on the spot. Soldiers went to mow the grass and guard, while others took money to sell the farmer's surplus, feeding the horses and eating for themselves.
They set up the raven banner to show their existence in Hazeby.
So far, Stade’s mission is mostly completed. Although the mission was not as expected, Hezeby slowly recovered from the sudden depression.
The peculiar confrontation with the Ross armed businessman really worries him. King Horrick does not want to fight an untimely war before he becomes strong. In fact, Stoude knows that his king neither uses force against Ross, nor does he want to turn his face on East Frank. However, the anger of the people is hard to calm, the Danish tribes outside of Hezeby, their attitude towards Ross is still hostile.
Is that the attitude of the Ross people? Obviously it is the side with few people, would you rather fight than compromise?
"If I do well, the king will canonize me as Earl of Hezeby? If I can't solve the problem of the Ross merchant, the earl should not think about anything." He couldn't help muttering, but he didn't dare to really use the knife, at least I dare not now.
Life entered a weird calm, disappearing vendors began to appear, Hezeby City did change, that is, King Horrick’s envoy army completed the move in, merchants and people's trading activities were carried out under the watch of the envoys.
The vast majority of people rely on this trading base to live their lives. Even if King Horrick comes, everyone can only pay taxes to survive.
Ordinary people do not have the right to choose a ruler or a king of their own accord. They can only cope with the changes in the same way.
The big businessmen were not the case. As the confrontation between the messenger and the Ruth merchant spread quickly, the merchants couldn't help but sweat over the fat man's life, and began to worry that Ruth's stubbornness would affect others.
A business meeting without the participation of the Ross people was held quietly again.
The merchants were still dressed up in gorgeous clothes. Since some people had gone to Frank with the purchased goods, there were only more than a dozen large merchants at the meeting.
These people can already represent the entire Hezeby business community, they get together, one by one worried.
Someone took the lead to say: "I think it's good, this tax must be paid. If we don't pay, we will die."
This is an unsuitable but crucial question. The businessmen looked at each other, but most people had the answer in their hearts.
Of course, there are still people trying to argue: "Why? I just want to ask why? A man from nowhere calls himself the lord of the city. If you give the money, he will run away, and then another man will jump out and claim that he is. The real Godfrey's grandson. Do you still have to pay?"
This is another very sharp question.
Someone's emotions became grief and anger: "That man is too demanding. One hundred pounds of silver coins is really crazy."
"But if we don't give it, it will be troublesome."
"Why? I think the Ross people are going to fight taxes desperately, and that fat man is still a fighter. They can express a tough attitude, but we are only weak?"
Most businessmen cannot be infected by such words. Someone shook his head: "Horik has soldiers! Our private soldiers are very few."
"In my opinion, the Ross people did it deliberately. They are turning the shops into fortresses, with the goal of the new king desperately trying to the end." A big clever analyzed.
But let's talk about it again, in business, you don't shudder, as long as you have money to make money, you can talk about it.
The wise man seemed to understand everything, and instantly lowered his head and his voice became quiet, attracting everyone to come around: "In my opinion, all this is the conspiracy of the prince Ross."
"Conspiracy? How can you see it?"
Smart continues: "That fat blue fox seems to be planning to use his own death to provoke a war. Oh no, the war between Ross and Denmark has never stopped. It has only been suspended in recent years. Think about it, Horrick took Heze Than, is it possible for them to do business in Rus? We are buying a lot of their leather. We can't buy them and we can't make a fortune."
"So, if Horrick does this, the interests of our brothers will be damaged. If Horrick blackmails us 100 pounds of silver every year, we will become poor within five years." Someone described this and everyone became angry. But it was incompetent and furious.
After hearing these words, the great clever felt that his speculation was close to the truth. "In that case, do you think if a war breaks out, who can win?"
Everyone didn't have any doubts about this question. After contacting with the Ruth merchants, they learned a lot of Eastern news, and the truth about Ruth duchy was far from all the Danish lords.
The great cleverness continues: "In my opinion, Ross will win. Their navy is very strong. They can also take the eastern army on an expedition. It is said that some Norwegian chiefs are friends of the Prince of Ross. Besides, the Swedes will definitely help Ross. Any split will happen. It's bullshit. Ross and Sweden are one family. I don't think Horrick from outside will gather all the power of Denmark to fight with them."
Someone had an epiphany: "So Horrick needs money?"
"Yes! A lot of money! With money to buy those lords, Horrick can complete the rule. Where he gets the money, he can only blackmail us."
"So let's run away?" Someone shivered and warmed.
"Bah! Our money, wealth, wives, concubines and slaves are here, where will they go once they ran away?"
"Maybe we go directly to the Ross people?"
"Go to Rose? Who knows the way? It's light."
The merchants started arguing, until the clever one stood up and organized a noisy quarrel.
"Okay! Friends, we should think about what to do in the future, instead of arguing boringly here, can the quarrel scare off that Horrick?"
"Do you have a good opinion?" someone asked angrily.
"Yes! This method is a bit dirty."
"Dirty?" Someone yelled: "When will we come, so that we can lose less, and it doesn't matter if we are dirty."
"Okay. Then you come here again, you have to swear, we follow this method, you are not allowed to disclose to anyone."
The great cleverness gathered the merchants, and he began to plan a conspiracy, and a plan of seeking benevolence and benevolence through the use of strength came into being.
"The fat blue fox intends to die, and he certainly doesn't want Ross to suffer losses. Horlick must be purely to make money. As long as they fight, as long as the blue fox is dead and the shop is destroyed, the Ross people must be furious. We must promote this result immediately. When Horrick is beaten to vomit blood and loses his advantage, we refuse to pay tribute. He dare to say rejection? Presumably all the Danish lords will expel him, so that Hezeby is still free. I'm afraid The Ross people don't call."
The method is really vicious. I sacrificed a good business partner for my own benefit. I obviously bought a huge amount of squirrel skin from him a few days ago, and even signed a futures treaty. Everyone is holding wooden documents.
The businessmen looked at each other, and they had a unified answer in their hearts, which tacitly said.
Someone sighed again: "That fat guy is not afraid of death, is this a businessman?"
"Who knows? It is said that there are many men in their family. If one died, the other brothers can continue to live. Moreover, dying like this can be regarded as a hero and can win honor for the family."
"I would rather die by myself for the honor of the family. What a cruel man..."
It is not easy for the merchants to meet the blue fox, and they already feel that the blue fox is dead.
The big businessmen want to see Horrick die violently, and it’s the old way to like Hezeby. They were conservative in their own interests, and after a meeting, the businessman started his own actions.
To make the battle happen immediately, Horrick’s men must be given a huge temptation.
The great clever brought a few businessmen friends and hurried to the current residence in Ystad after the meeting.
They entered the actual military camp, and suddenly they saw unclothed women running around, followed by shirtless soldiers running like sheep herders.
"Did they actually arrest some women? I just said that this group of people are insatiable, and those claims are all lie to us."
Clever shook his head: "Now we can only bite the bullet and say it."
The merchant's visit was abrupt. The soldiers saw that the uninvited guests were coming, and they greeted them immediately, reaching out to ask for bribes.
got some silver coins before starting to ask the visitors what they meant.
Very clever and respectful: "We are all rich businessmen, and want to meet Lord Stadt."
"Want to see us adults? Your adults are busy with new wives and concubines..." Seems to refuse customers? But the soldiers kept winking.
Great wisdom deserves to be great wisdom, hurriedly stuffed some more silver coins, and my heart became more angry.
Soldier, this is satisfied: "You wait, I will report."
The soldier was still arrogant just now, and he had to be careful when he entered the house.
He saw that his master was crushing a poor peasant girl to death. The peasant girl was captured on the spot, and Stard saw that she looked good and left to enjoy it. Although she was allowed to be a wife and concubine, the bulls now generally act like a pie, which would crush her alive.
"My lord. There is..."
"Get out! Didn't you see that I was busy?"
"My lord." The soldier said cautiously, "It's the big businessmen. They seem to come here with kindness."
"Oh? Are you here to give me money? Okay, let them wait, I will change my clothes before receiving them."
Stad immediately waved his hand and asked the two women who had been hiding to take the almost faint peasant girl away. He is very elegant. He first came to Hezeby to search for women in nearby villages on the grounds of farmers' tax resistance. He chose three by himself, and his subordinates also had income. He did this deliberately, and the almost crazy brothers should indulge in order to maintain morale, and by the way, he announced to Hezeby and the nearby Saxon village that the real master of Denmark had arrived.
Soon, it was still in this room, and Stard, who had put on his shirt, happily received the five big businessmen. He was happy, just wanting to solve the problem and continue to go happily.
The businessman had just entered the house, and he took the lead in asking: "Are you giving me money?"
"Yes! That's it." The clever had already planned, and when he gave everyone a wink, he offered five packs of silver coins decisively.
As soon as Stad saw the large number of silver coins, his delight became more intense, and he couldn't help but sigh: "It is said that Heizer is richer than that, and your big businessmen are really rich. It seems that you will give money to our Horry well. King Ke."
With a clever idea, he deliberately complimented: "My lord, you are also a distinguished person. We still need your protection when we do business in the future."
This flattery shot well, and Stade rejoiced: "Tell you, the king must have accepted me as Earl of Hezeby, of course I will protect you. Pay enough for the king, pay enough for me, and the rest is yours. . I will protect you to do business safely."
Hearing like bullshit, these words of this person are also different from those publicly preached before, and the businessmen are even more sure that as long as this person gains power, he will be more aggressively exploited.
Brightness means that everyone has to be greeted with smiles on the face: "If this is the case, we will feel at ease. But it seems that there are still people who refuse to obey the king and your rule."
"I know, it's the Ross people!" Stard smiled with anger, and said maliciously: "When the King Navy arrives, all the Ross people will be killed."
"Ah! The Ross people really deserve to die, it's just that..."
"What's the matter?" Seeing the cleverness pretending to be surprised, Stad suddenly felt a little tricky.
"My lord, the Ross people will definitely be defeated. It is a fact that they are few in number. Even if we all noticed that they were building fortresses, they still died. But the glory of victory belongs to the king, and the thousand pounds of silver in it also belong to the king..."
"What? How many silver coins?!" Stad noticed the details instantly like a cat with blown hair.
"A thousand pounds of silver coins."
"Huh? Are you serious?!"
"This..." The wise man pretended to be suspicious. "It was revealed by the fat man who claimed to be very rich. He said that his shop had a thousand pounds of silver coins and a lot of gold and precious stones. Danish wealth was being plundered by him. Maybe there is a silver mountain in that fortress."
"Is it true?"
He was clever and hesitated: "It should be a lot. But if the king wins, you can't make money. If you win, hand in some to the king, and the rest is not yours?"
Hearing this Stad's enthusiasm in an instant, he knew that the Ross people were building a fortress, so that the brothers would be killed or injured if they attacked.
He hates that fat man very much, and he is also cautious of his soldiers. He doesn't want to take risks unless the benefits are huge enough.
But there are so many problems with the description of the merchants! Since they are very wealthy, they would rather die to resist instead of fleeing with a huge amount of wealth if their brains are sick?
The temptation of huge wealth has made Stade a fool. He has never seen a thousand pounds of silver in his life.
The businessman is here to announce the good news. At the end of it, Stad summoned all his subordinates to explain the matter. The temptation of wealth made everyone ecstatic.
Of course, some people think that there is something strange in it, but the current voice of suspicion is completely overwhelmed by ecstasy.
What is a fortress? What is the enemy's strength? The brothers did not lose in Flanders, but they still attacked when they encountered a strong enemy. Everyone would make a fortune instantly because of victory.
It’s just rapturous. The three women were so tossed by Stad that they couldn’t walk for the time being. He himself finally settled down after being overly happy, and he could seriously think about how to ruin the treasure-bearing Ross Fortress.
The biggest problem is one-lack of soldiers.
A dramatic scene happened very quickly, and another group of people came to see it. It's just that most of these people are bald and have many scars on their bodies. Soldiers want to ask for bribes and they won't give them at all.
These brawny men didn't want to be rough, and even though they were intercepted by the soldiers, they immediately yelled to give Stoude his life.
Is it really hard work? No.
This team of gang leaders led by Karl the Grey Wolf is united to find Studby Wharf. Or they hope to be King Horrick's subordinates through this relationship.
The gray wolf Karl is the biggest boss. He claims to be Hezeby’s biggest gang and has three hundred brothers. Although this is bragging, Carl bluntly respected Stad as his eldest brother, and the brothers all listened to the eldest brother's scheduling, and asked the eldest brother to ensure that the brothers can also make public activities in Hezeby.
A group of rats in the gutter burrow to the ground, and the rats want to become tigers.
Stad is short of manpower, and he never thought that the new man would come uninvited. He completely agreed to the other party's request, but they also had to accept the certificate.
Carl, the gray wolf, noticed that Stard was hesitant and could not help but misunderstood, so he decisively played the Rose card: "Ross merchants are very rich. We observe their docks unloading, and the finest leather is piled up like a mountain. It is difficult for us to get it. Get a lot of money."
Doesn’t this statement further confirm the merchant’s description? The Ross store has been secured!
Stard pretended to be deep: "So, do you want me to lead soldiers to attack them? That's okay. You plan to be my soldier, so naturally you have to show it. I want you to launch an attack with me to prove your credibility~ www.novelhall.com~Dare you?"
"Dare!" Gray Wolf Karl was extremely decisive: "Some of my brothers were killed by the Rus, and I wanted to take revenge a long time ago. But we lack a real commander. I see that the army of your lord is very glorious. You lead us to victory. I will bring all my brothers to the war."
"Very good. I have some warriors in the north. I am a general under the king. I can confess that you will all be centurions. I will be Earl of Hezeby. You will be my soldiers in the future. You will also help me rule here. ."
The bandit gang became the lord’s fighters, so many things that could not be put on the table can be done publicly.
The progress of the situation far exceeded the expectations of Karl and the others. As for the attack on the Ross store, this must be done. Suffer a loss for this? That's okay. There are many poor people in Hezeby. It is not difficult to recruit new recruits, and it does not hurt to die some. In the end, he and the gang can grab huge benefits.
It is really an undercurrent. For the legend of "numerous gold, silver and gems", merchants, bandits, and foreign troops all regard the Ross store as Bick's sweet pastry. They both felt that the other party could be used, but they kept repeating lies, but the big family believed that the fortress was full of gold and silver.
All this conspiracy Yangmou Blue Fox does not know, but he has no illusions about the future. In fact, he didn't want to die, but the purpose of defending the fortress and killing some enemies was achieved. As for the opponent's delay in attacking, he had to take his brothers to escape in the dark on the first day of August. There was nothing in the shops before they were soft and could be abandoned, and then he grabbed three long boats in the harbor and paddled.

Some small vendors ran away urgently with their soft, but the wooden huts they left behind also lost their owners.
Stad led his troops to easily occupy this place, and the brothers no longer need to sleep in the forest. The horses were **** on the spot. Soldiers went to mow the grass and guard, while others took money to sell the farmer's surplus, feeding the horses and eating for themselves.
They set up the raven banner to show their existence in Hazeby.
So far, Stade’s mission is mostly completed. Although the mission was not as expected, Hezeby slowly recovered from the sudden depression.

We observe their docks unloading, and the finest leather is piled up like a mountain. It is difficult for us to get it. Get a lot of money."
Doesn’t this statement further confirm the merchant’s description? The Ross store has been secured!
Stard pretended to be deep: "So, do you want me to lead soldiers to attack them? That's okay. You plan to be my soldier, so naturally you have to show it. I want you to launch an attack with me to prove your credibility~ www.novelhall.com~Dare you?"
"Dare!" Gray Wolf Karl was extremely decisive: "Some of my brothers were killed by the Rus, and I wanted to take revenge a long time ago. But we lack a real commander. I see that the army of your lord is very glorious. You lead us to victory. I will bring all my brothers to the war."
"Very good. I have some warriors in the north. I am a general under the king. I can confess that you will all be centurions. I will be Earl of Hezeby. You will be my soldiers in the future. You will also help me rule here. ."
The bandit gang became the lord’s fighters, so many things that could not be put on the table can be done publicly.
The progress of the situation far exceeded the expectations of Karl and the others. As for the attack on the Ross store, this must be done. Suffer a loss for this? That's okay. There are many poor people in Hezeby. It is not difficult to recruit new recruits, and it does not hurt to die some. In the end, he and the gang can grab huge benefits.
It is really an undercurrent. For the legend of "numerous gold, silver and gems", merchants, bandits, and foreign troops all regard the Ross store as Bick's sweet pastry. They both felt that the other party could be used, but they kept repeating lies, but the big family believed that the fortress was full of gold and silver.
All this conspiracy Yangmou Blue Fox does not know, but he has no illusions about the future. In fact, he didn't want to die, but the purpose of defending the fortress and killing some enemies was achieved. As for the opponent's delay in attacking, he had to take his brothers to escape in the dark on the first day of August. There was nothing in the shops before they were soft and could be abandoned, and then he grabbed three long boats in the harbor and paddled.
Some small vendors ran away urgently with their soft, but the wooden huts they left behind also lost their owners. Stad led his troops to easily occupy this place, and the brothers no longer need to sleep in the forest. The horses were **** on the spot. Soldiers went to mow the grass and guard, while others took money to sell the farmer's surplus, feeding the horses and eating for themselves. They set up the raven banner to show their existence in Hazeby. So far, Stade's mission is mostly completed. Although the mission was not as expected, Hezeby slowly recovered from the sudden depression. The peculiar confrontation with the Ross armed businessman really worries him. King Horrick does not want to fight an untimely war before he becomes strong. In fact, Stoude knows that his king neither uses force against Ross, nor does he want to turn his face on East Frank. However, the anger of the people is hard to calm, the Danish tribes outside of Hezeby, their attitude towards Ross is still hostile. Is that the attitude of the Ross people? Obviously it is the side with few people, would you rather fight than compromise?"If I do well, the king will canonize me as Earl of Hezeby? If I can't solve the problem of the Ross merchant, the earl should not think about anything." He couldn't help muttering, but he didn't dare to really use the knife, at least I dare not now. Life entered a weird calm, disappearing vendors began to appear, Hezeby City did change, that is, King Horrick's envoy army completed the move in, merchants and people's trading activities were carried out under the watch of the envoys. The vast majority of people rely on this trading base to live their lives. Even if King Horrick comes, everyone can only pay taxes to survive. Ordinary people do not have the right to choose a ruler or a king of their own accord. They can only cope with the changes in the same way.The big businessmen were not the case. As the confrontation between the messenger and the Ruth merchant spread quickly, the merchants couldn't help but sweat over the fat man's life, and began to worry that Ruth's stubbornness would affect others. A business meeting without the participation of the Ross people was held quietly again.The merchants were still dressed up in gorgeous clothes. Since some people had gone to Frank with the purchased goods, there were only more than a dozen large merchants at the meeting. These people can already represent the entire Hezeby business community, they get together, one by one worried. Someone took the lead to say: "I think it's good, this tax must be paid. If we don't pay, we will die." This is an unsuitable but crucial question. The businessmen looked at each other, but most people had the answer in their hearts.Of course, there are still people trying to argue: "Why? I just want to ask why? A man from nowhere calls himself the lord of the city. If you give the money, he will run away, and then another man will jump out and claim that he is. The real Godfrey's grandson. Do you still have to pay?" This is another very sharp question. Someone's emotions became grief and anger: "That man is too demanding. One hundred pounds of silver coins is really crazy." "But if we don't give it, it will be troublesome." "Why? I think the Ross people are going to fight taxes desperately, and that fat man is still a fighter. They can express a tough attitude, but we are only weak?"Most businessmen cannot be infected by such words. Someone shook his head: "Horik has soldiers! Our private soldiers are very few." "In my opinion, the Ross people did it deliberately. They are turning the shops into fortresses, with the goal of the new king desperately trying to the end." A big clever analyzed. But let's talk about it again, in business, you don't shudder, as long as you have money to make money, you can talk about it. The wise man seemed to understand everything, and instantly lowered his head and his voice became quiet, attracting everyone to come around: "In my opinion, all this is the conspiracy of the prince Ross." "Conspiracy? How can you see it?"Smart continues: "That fat blue fox seems to be planning to use his own death to provoke a war. Oh no, the war between Ross and Denmark has never stopped. It has only been suspended in recent years. Think about it, Horrick took Heze Than, is it possible for them to do business in Rus? We are buying a lot of their leather. We can't buy them and we can't make a fortune.""So, if Horrick does this, the interests of our brothers will be damaged. If Horrick blackmails us 100 pounds of silver every year, we will become poor within five years." Someone described this and everyone became angry. But it was incompetent and furious. After hearing these words, the great clever felt that his speculation was close to the truth. "In that case, do you think if a war breaks out, who can win?" Everyone didn't have any doubts about this question. After contacting with the Ruth merchants, they learned a lot of Eastern news, and the truth about Ruth duchy was far from all the Danish lords.The great cleverness continues: "In my opinion, Ross will win. Their navy is very strong. They can also take the eastern army on an expedition. It is said that some Norwegian chiefs are friends of the Prince of Ross. Besides, the Swedes will definitely help Ross. Any split will happen. It's bullshit. Ross and Sweden are one family. I don't think Horrick from outside will gather all the power of Denmark to fight with them." Someone had an epiphany: "So Horrick needs money?" "Yes! A lot of money! With money to buy those lords, Horrick can complete the rule. Where he gets the money, he can only blackmail us." "So let's run away?" Someone shivered and warmed. "Bah! Our money, wealth, wives, concubines and slaves are here, where will they go once they ran away?" "Maybe we go directly to the Ross people?" "Go to Rose? Who knows the way? It's light." The merchants started arguing, until the clever one stood up and organized a noisy quarrel. "Okay! Friends, we should think about what to do in the future, instead of arguing boringly here, can the quarrel scare off that Horrick?" "Do you have a good opinion?" someone asked angrily. "Yes! This method is a bit dirty." "Dirty?" Someone yelled: "When will we come, so that we can lose less, and it doesn't matter if we are dirty." "Okay. Then you come here again, you have to swear, we follow this method, you are not allowed to disclose to anyone."The great cleverness gathered the merchants, and he began to plan a conspiracy, and a plan of seeking benevolence and benevolence through the use of strength came into being."The fat blue fox intends to die, and he certainly doesn't want Ross to suffer losses. Horlick must be purely to make money. As long as they fight, as long as the blue fox is dead and the shop is destroyed, the Ross people must be furious. We must promote this result immediately. When Horrick is beaten to vomit blood and loses his advantage, we refuse to pay tribute. He dare to say rejection? Presumably all the Danish lords will expel him, so that Hezeby is still free. I'm afraid The Ross people don't call."The method is really vicious. I sacrificed a good business partner for my own benefit. I obviously bought a huge amount of squirrel skin from him a few days ago, and even signed a futures treaty. Everyone is holding wooden documents. The businessmen looked at each other, and they had a unified answer in their hearts, which tacitly said. Someone sighed again: "That fat guy is not afraid of death, is this a businessman?" "Who knows? It is said that there are many men in their family. If one died, the other brothers can continue to live. Moreover, dying like this can be regarded as a hero and can win honor for the family." "I would rather die by myself for the honor of the family. What a cruel man..." It is not easy for the merchants to meet the blue fox, and they already feel that the blue fox is dead.The big businessmen want to see Horrick die violently, and it's the old way to like Hezeby. They were conservative in their own interests, and after a meeting, the businessman started his own actions.To make the battle happen immediately, Horrick's men must be given a huge temptation. The great clever brought a few businessmen friends and hurried to the current residence in Ystad after the meeting. They entered the actual military camp, and suddenly they saw unclothed women running around, followed by shirtless soldiers running like sheep herders. "Did they actually arrest some women? I just said that this group of people are insatiable, and those claims are all lie to us." Clever shook his head: "Now we can only bite the bullet and say it." The merchant's visit was abrupt. The soldiers saw that the uninvited guests were coming, and they greeted them immediately, reaching out to ask for bribes. got some silver coins before starting to ask the visitors what they meant. Very clever and respectful: "We are all rich businessmen, and want to meet Lord Stadt." "Want to see us adults? Your adults are busy with new wives and concubines..." Seems to refuse customers? But the soldiers kept winking.Great wisdom deserves to be great wisdom, hurriedly stuffed some more silver coins, and my heart became more angry. Soldier, this is satisfied: "You wait, I will report." The soldier was still arrogant just now, and he had to be careful when he entered the house. He saw that his master was crushing a poor peasant girl to death. The peasant girl was captured on the spot, and Stard saw that she looked good and left to enjoy it. Although she was allowed to be a wife and concubine, the bulls now generally act like a pie, which would crush her alive. "My lord. There is..." "Get out! Didn't you see that I was busy?" "My lord." The soldier said cautiously, "It's the big businessmen. They seem to come here with kindness." "Oh? Are you here to give me money? Okay, let them wait, I will change my clothes before receiving them." Stad immediately waved his hand and asked the two women who had been hiding to take the almost faint peasant girl away. He is very elegant. He first came to Hezeby to search for women in nearby villages on the grounds of farmers' tax resistance. He chose three by himself, and his subordinates also had income. He did this deliberately, and the almost crazy brothers should indulge in order to maintain morale, and by the way, he announced to Hezeby and the nearby Saxon village that the real master of Denmark had arrived. Soon, it was still in this room, and Stard, who had put on his shirt, happily received the five big businessmen. He was happy, just wanting to solve the problem and continue to go happily. The businessman had just entered the house, and he took the lead in asking: "Are you giving me money?" "Yes! That's it." The clever had already planned, and when he gave everyone a wink, he offered five packs of silver coins decisively.As soon as Stad saw the large number of silver coins, his delight became more intense, and he couldn't help but sigh: "It is said that Heizer is richer than that, and your big businessmen are really rich. It seems that you will give money to our Horry well. King Ke." With a clever idea, he deliberately complimented: "My lord, you are also a distinguished person. We still need your protection when we do business in the future."This flattery shot well, and Stade rejoiced: "Tell you, the king must have accepted me as Earl of Hezeby, of course I will protect you. Pay enough for the king, pay enough for me, and the rest is yours. . I will protect you to do business safely." Hearing like bullshit, these words of this person are also different from those publicly preached before, and the businessmen are even more sure that as long as this person gains power, he will be more aggressively exploited.Brightness means that everyone has to be greeted with smiles on the face: "If this is the case, we will feel at ease. But it seems that there are still people who refuse to obey the king and your rule." "I know, it's the Ross people!" Stard smiled with anger, and said maliciously: "When the King Navy arrives, all the Ross people will be killed." "Ah! The Ross people really deserve to die, it's just that..." "What's the matter?" Seeing the cleverness pretending to be surprised, Stad suddenly felt a little tricky. "My lord, the Ross people will definitely be defeated. It is a fact that they are few in number. Even if we all noticed that they were building fortresses, they still died. But the glory of victory belongs to the king, and the thousand pounds of silver in it also belong to the king..." "What? How many silver coins?!" Stad noticed the details instantly like a cat with blown hair. "A thousand pounds of silver coins." "Huh? Are you serious?!""This..." The wise man pretended to be suspicious. "It was revealed by the fat man who claimed to be very rich. He said that his shop had a thousand pounds of silver coins and a lot of gold and precious stones. Danish wealth was being plundered by him. Maybe there is a silver mountain in that fortress." "Is it true?" He was clever and hesitated: "It should be a lot. But if the king wins, you can't make money. If you win, hand in some to the king, and the rest is not yours?" Hearing this Stad's enthusiasm in an instant, he knew that the Ross people were building a fortress, so that the brothers would be killed or injured if they attacked. He hates that fat man very much, and he is also cautious of his soldiers. He doesn't want to take risks unless the benefits are huge enough. But there are so many problems with the description of the merchants! Since they are very wealthy, they would rather die to resist instead of fleeing with a huge amount of wealth if their brains are sick? The temptation of huge wealth has made Stade a fool. He has never seen a thousand pounds of silver in his life. The businessman is here to announce the good news. At the end of it, Stad summoned all his subordinates to explain the matter. The temptation of wealth made everyone ecstatic. Of course, some people think that there is something strange in it, but the current voice of suspicion is completely overwhelmed by ecstasy.What is a fortress? What is the enemy's strength? The brothers did not lose in Flanders, but they still attacked when they encountered a strong enemy. Everyone would make a fortune instantly because of victory. It's just rapturous. The three women were so tossed by Stad that they couldn't walk for the time being. He himself finally settled down after being overly happy, and he could seriously think about how to ruin the treasure-bearing Ross Fortress.The biggest problem is one-lack of soldiers. A dramatic scene happened very quickly, and another group of people came to see it. It's just that most of these people are bald and have many scars on their bodies. Soldiers want to ask for bribes and they won't give them at all. These brawny men didn't want to be rough, and even though they were intercepted by the soldiers, they immediately yelled to give Stoude his life. Is it really hard work? No. This team of gang leaders led by Karl the Grey Wolf is united to find Studby Wharf. Or they hope to be King Horrick's subordinates through this relationship. The gray wolf Karl is the biggest boss. He claims to be Hezeby's biggest gang and has three hundred brothers. Although this is bragging, Carl bluntly respected Stad as his eldest brother, and the brothers all listened to the eldest brother's scheduling, and asked the eldest brother to ensure that the brothers can also make public activities in Hezeby. A group of rats in the gutter burrow to the ground, and the rats want to become tigers.Stad is short of manpower, and he never thought that the new man would come uninvited. He completely agreed to the other party's request, but they also had to accept the certificate.Carl, the gray wolf, noticed that Stard was hesitant and could not help but misunderstood, so he decisively played the Rose card: "Ross merchants are very rich. We observe their docks unloading, and the finest leather is piled up like a mountain. It is difficult for us to get it. Get a lot of money." Doesn't this statement further confirm the merchant's description? The Ross store has been secured!Stard pretended to be deep: "So, do you want me to lead soldiers to attack them? That's okay.
