Fel doesn't lie to you

Chapter 240

"Mr. Li Ke, please believe me. These are the residents of Miss Jennifer's original territory. They fled here because of the war, but West Springs Fortress and Stormwind City cannot accommodate so many people. If we quickly restore the west If you produce in the wilderness, then you won't be under a lot of pressure..."

Jonathan's face was embarrassing...even a flattering smile, which made Li Ke finally understand why Bolvar and Varian would send a city gate general to help him.

Jonathan is capable. If the Defias thieves in Westfall are too fierce and tenacious, then Jonathan, who is good at defensive warfare, can use Li Ke's financial resources to build a relatively perfect defensive circle, and then he, Li Ke and Time for Defias rogues to bleed each other.

But part of the production can be resumed, which can greatly relieve the pressure on Stormwind City.

The other is that Jonathan is smart and flexible enough, and very principled, even stubborn and old-fashioned in principle.

As for Jonathan's official position, even if he offended him, it was nothing more than going back and continuing to be the city gate official.

Therefore, Jonathan will find every opportunity to do things for the country and the people at all costs.

Including helping people who fled to return to their original land.

But now Li Ke is basically stuck in order to create his own personality.

The status of a paladin is easy to use, but unfortunately, it also needs to bear corresponding responsibilities and social consensus.

"I know, Mr. Jonathan, I know, how could I not believe you? It's just that I didn't expect there to be so many, so many that the West Spring Fortress couldn't live there. So I thought, can you hire some more troops to escort These refugees go back and resume production? And help you build your fortress."

Li Ke followed Jonathan and Deputy Captain Rainier to the West Spring Fortress near the western wilderness, and then saw a large group of densely packed tents, as well as soldiers patrolling outside the group of tents, and one by one with gnolls. The symbol cast by the head, in order to deter those gnolls.

These people can't go to Stormwind, because Lieutenant Rainier stopped them by order, citing that there might be Defias thieves among them.

Therefore, these residents of the Western Wilderness living near the West Spring Fortress now have a high probability of eating their own food or deposits. If no one accepts it, or if the chaos in the Western Wilderness is quickly quelled, they will soon become refugees.

It seemed that there were at least two or three thousand people.

This is not a lot of pressure?

Li Ke looked at Jonathan with a subtle expression.

"But although I have a lot of gold coins, they are not unlimited. Mr. Marcus Jonathan, I have reached the limit of hiring troops. I really can't do anything about these civilians."

Li Ke doesn't have that much money, otherwise why would he start selling illusions.

"Maybe you can ask someone else for help?"

Marcus Jonathan wanted to say that you can ask the countess for it!But he still had to lose face, and he didn't say anything about Li Ke's speculation in the Stormwind circle.

Everyone in Stormwind City guessed that Li Ke was actually the white glove of the Prestor family, and it was specially used to solve the problems of the western wilderness.The purpose is to deepen the power and influence in Stormwind City, and completely subdue Li Ke.

Otherwise, what would Countess Katrana send so many things for?
If it wasn't for going to the West Wilderness, what Countess Katrana gave to Jennifer, or to be precise, to Li Ke, was enough for him to buy a large piece of good territory in Elwynn Forest, as well as several farms.

Why bother with Westfall?
So they must be asking for a lot, so these nobles thought about it, and they could only think that Li Ke was the white glove of the Prestor family. When the time comes, as long as Li Ke and Ms. Katrana get married, they will be able to logically own the entire family. wild west.

Even, the Patriarch of Prestor, the rumored Lord Daval Prestor, who may become the king of Alterac, can rely on this territory to exchange with Stormwind City without excessive Relying on Lordaeron's food, they can stand on Lordaeron's side not so firmly in some matters.

Of course, there are still many difficulties in achieving this goal, but for these nobles, it is very reasonable.

Because they don't think Lord Daval Prestor will keep holding on to Westfall. After all, this is an enclave, and it is still next to Stormwind City. After Stormwind City slows down, there is basically no way to escape from Stormwind. The possibility of city control.

Of course, everything depends on how you operate.

However, during this process, the Prestor family will not hesitate to accept the money that the Prestor family spent on the western wilderness!

Obviously, Bolvar and Varian were the first to attack, but this is also a normal political consideration, not too much.

It can only be regarded as paying protection fees.

"..."

Li Ke instantly understood the meaning of all this, including the aristocratic and political considerations that he hadn't thought of before, rubbed his temples, and took a deep breath.

It's a pit, but it's okay.

Pay the protection fee, sprinkle water.

It's just that these refugees can never be taken with them!

To be precise, it is absolutely impossible for Jonathan to increase the number of soldiers in this team in the name of refugees needing protection.

Otherwise, he will really go bankrupt!
"Mr. Jonathan, it won't take long for us to establish a safe stronghold in the western wilderness, so just come and pick them up when the time comes. Although I don't care much about money, you should also know that it is not me who establishes a territory own business."

Li Ke's smile gradually became serious, and it became less and less real.

He respected Jennifer a lot, because Jennifer almost acquiesced that the territory and assets were his.

So he has to respect the wealth and Jennifer.

Moreover, if this request is granted, it would not be generous.

That's stupid.

Jonathan hesitated for a moment. Although he wanted Li Ke to hire more soldiers, if Li Ke really had no money, he didn't want these farmers to be threatened by jackals.

So, he hesitated for a moment, but he still spoke, without any sign of rushing to the West Wilderness.

As if the Horde raids didn't exist.

Although it does not exist, Jonathan's behavior is too abnormal. It seems that, like Li Ke, he is sure that the orcs will not really attack the West Wilderness.

"But, Mr. Li Ke, there are many jackals here, and these people will be your subjects in the future, so I think..."

"I'll handle it."

Li Ke touched the hilt of his sword.

"Give me one day, and I'll make the nearby gnolls dare not approach again for a short time!"

Extraordinary force should be used in similar times!

Although there are many calculations...

Just break it with strength!

　Tell me, although I don't know which bastard it is.

　　But please don't buy me the Masturbation Cup and Fukada's butt model!

　　The name is also a guess what to give! !

　　I guess you are a fairy!
