Being a lord in another world begins with farming

Chapter 144 Cooperation with the Black Hand
Owen didn't kill Harvey at the beginning because he knew it would be useless to kill him.

As long as the black hands don't give up and kill Harvey, there will be Hass, Happy, haha.

With black hands covering half of the empire's sphere of influence, simple killing can't solve the problem at all, only cooperation can last long, and both sides have a tacit understanding on this.

Owen was afraid of trouble, and Black Hand didn't want to miss a good partner, so both parties were very sincere, and the little finger, one of the five fingers on the left hand, even went to Akita Town in person.

It stands to reason that with the size of the black hand, even if it is only the last little finger of the left hand in charge of intelligence, his status is still not low.

It's a pity that a black hand is a black hand, and after all, it can't be seen in the light. In the eyes of any nobleman, the black hand is just some dirty rats, knives that are thrown away after use, and they have no identity.

It is because of the serious lack of status in the eyes of the nobles, coupled with the current reputation of Akita Town in the Northland, that Little Thumb decided to come in person, in case there are variables in this cooperation. After all, in his plan, the intelligence network of the Northland is the most important Most importantly, as a little finger, he couldn't miss this opportunity.

"Master Little Thumb, this is Qiutian Town." Harvey, who was in charge of leading the way, said respectfully.

Harvey's appearance didn't change much, but there was a hint of nervousness and urgency in his expression, as well as unconcealable fatigue. It was obvious that he had endured a lot of pressure along the way.

This is not surprising, because the failure last time, coupled with the exposure of his identity, made his life difficult.

If it wasn't for him to be the middleman of this cooperation, I'm afraid he would have been killed a long time ago.

Even so, Harvey is still under tremendous psychological pressure, especially Mr. Little Thumb who came with him.

As the little finger of Hei's left hand, his appearance is not outstanding. He is just a short young man with an average appearance. He looks surprisingly ordinary. It is not surprising that he is thrown into the barn to do farm work.

No way, the left hand is in charge of intelligence. As the little finger, he must be ordinary and not attract the slightest attention from others, but this does not affect his rights. I didn't see Harvey's humble appearance.

For Harvey, Little Finger didn't pay too much attention, but focused on the town of Akita in front of him. Only then did he realize that he had made a very correct decision.

The rich territory, industrious citizens, prosperous commerce, and elite soldiers make Little Thumb immediately see that the potential of Akita Town is definitely greater than he imagined. Even because of its geographical location, in the future, its importance will be greater than ever. Will surpass the town of Ferrier.

"Maybe you did a good thing." Littlefinger said to Harvey thoughtfully.

If it weren't for Harvey's failure and the exposure of his identity, I'm afraid he wouldn't focus on such a northern place for a long time, which would cause him to miss the best time.

Feeling something from Mr. Little Thumb's tone, Harvey secretly heaved a sigh of relief, then led the way himself, and checked into the only hotel in the territory.

Not in a hurry to make any moves, Little Thumb stayed quietly in the hotel, spent two days looking through the information about Akita Town repeatedly, and then took Harvey to the castle to meet him.

Little Finger was a little surprised by the castle without walls, but when he saw groups of soldiers and mighty Teutonic warriors, he knew that the walls were unnecessary, but what shocked him the most was guarding Owen Shire.

Although the left hand is mainly responsible for information and smuggling, it does not mean that they do not know the skills of assassins, especially the little finger, one of the five fingers, is not only a brilliant thief, but also a very good assassin, so he can clearly Feeling his body trembling unconsciously, he immediately understood what kind of existence was facing him.

It's not that the Black Hand doesn't have legendary powerhouses, it's because there are terrifying Legendary Assassins who can exchange for one with any legendary limit, the Black Hand's power spreads over half of the empire.

It's a pity that although Little Thumb's status is high, he is not famous for his strength, so although he judges that the opponent is a legend, he has no choice, because only a legend can deal with a legend, and he is not.

Sensing the lock of the legend and the dead men lurking around, although Little Thumb is not worried about his own safety, he knows that he has already lost the upper hand before starting to discuss cooperation.

The advantage of showing strength is that Little Thumb immediately corrected his attitude, not daring to show the attitude of facing a noble in a remote country, but as if facing the heir of an old noble.

Yes, an heir to an established nobleman, that's exactly what Littlefinger judged Owen.

Before, he thought that the other party was just a puppet chosen by a certain nobleman, but now he doesn't think so.

The legendary warrior's loyalty to Owen can be felt with his soul, a puppet does not have such treatment.

Even if it is really a puppet, when he gains the loyalty of a legendary warrior, he will gain more attention until he loses this hole card.

"Let me introduce again, the little finger of Xia Hei's left hand is in charge of intelligence in the North." After obtaining the identity of the little finger, his original name and past were erased, so he introduced it like this.

"Hydera III, Viscount Owen, please sit down, Your Excellency Little Finger." Owen nodded lightly, and then extended his hand to invite him to sit down.

The house elf quickly presented the carefully prepared food, and Little Finger was full of praise, not sure if it was for the food or a rare magical creature.

The delicious food is just embellishment. When Maya arrives, the real conversation has just begun, and Owen is more like a witness.

The black hand wanted to establish an intelligence center in the territory, and Maya did not refuse this, because while exposing the information of the territory, the territory would also obtain a stable source of information.

As for the risk of their own information being betrayed, neither Owen nor Maya cared much about it.

First of all, the weak are not qualified to obtain the information of the territory. Although the black hand is not 100% loyal to the partner, and does not even mind betraying the other party, the problem is that money must be added, because this will damage the reputation of the black hand, so a reputation loss fee must be paid.

And it can force the black hand to compromise and provide enough rewards. Even if such an existence does not go through the black hand, there will be other ways to obtain information on the territory. It is only a matter of time.

So the so-called risk only depends on whether there are enough benefits exchanged by the black hands. If there are enough benefits, even if they are betrayed, Owen and Maya will choose to turn a blind eye.

The conversation between the two parties was not as intense as Owen imagined. First of all, it was not the first time Maya had dealt with the black hand. Secondly, Little Thumb also had information about the servant girl and knew the origin and origin of the other party. Set a trap between words because it means nothing.

Everyone is a thousand-year-old fox. Playing routines is purely a waste of time for both parties, especially when the strength is not dominant, and honesty is more suitable for the current situation of both parties.
