Chapter 98 Unilateral Negotiation

After not seeing the Knights of the Round Table go to battle for several days, the citizens just learned that the war with Fastland was over.

While they were greatly disappointed, they also took it for granted.

The strength of the 12 knights of the round table has penetrated into everyone's hearts, and has become the iconic combat power of Arnold's territory. People talk about it, and even a five-year-old child can tell the identity of each of them.

On this day, the Lord's Mansion posted a notice, which excited everyone in the territory and paid great attention to it.

That is, the cavaliers under the Lord's command recruit newcomers, and the conditions are as follows.

[The scope of recruitment is tentatively set in the Guards, aged 14 to 45, with no bad records. Strictly loyal, the number is limited to 30 people. 】

The school has been open for so long, the citizens can more or less understand the contents of the notice, and if they don't understand, they can also learn from other people.

"There are only 30 people! And they are only selected from the guard team. The guard team in our territory only has more than 300 people. It seems that the competition will be fierce."

A well-dressed middle-aged man spoke out, and he was dressed like a wealthy businessman in business.

"My son is in the guard team, he will definitely be selected." Someone in the crowd exclaimed with joy, and the people next to him cast envious eyes.

But more people are puzzled. Now that the territory is developing very well, how can the Cavaliers select such a small number of people, and also set a range.

"This should only be the first batch of recruitment, and there will be a second batch of recruitment after a while."

At this time, a voice came from behind, and everyone around the bulletin board turned their heads at the same time, and when they saw the people speaking, they all gave way.

"Mr. Xavier."

"Mr. Xavier."

They greeted each other respectfully, and one of them asked in surprise: "Mr. Xavier, did you just say that this is just the first batch of recruitment?"

The man called Mr. Xavier is the teacher of West Street School and Rosalind's tutor.

He maintained his polite nod, came to the bulletin board, faced everyone, and explained: "Look, it clearly shows that the age is between 14 and 45 years old. There are no 14-year-old boys in the guard team, so the first batch of recruited knights is only selected from the guard team, and the scope will be expanded later."

Xavier's explanation was unanimously approved by everyone, and they all looked forward to the next recruitment selection, which meant that they or their children would also have the opportunity to join the Knights of the Round Table and become a rookie knight, and they would be honored by then.

Of course, they are also looking forward to this recruitment. After all, they are the first batch of knights recruited by the Knights of the Round Table, and there is a special limit of 30 people. Under such strict circumstances, those who are selected must be the elite of the elite.

"I don't know if I know any of these thirty people. I really hope he can be selected."

As soon as this remark came out, everyone scrambled to discuss it, and reported the names of people they knew or liked, which was quite lively.

Xavier watched this scene with a smile. He liked the current atmosphere very much. Although it was noisy, it was full of vitality, which was much better than the lifeless one before.

He passed through the crowd, came to the Territorial Affairs Office at the back, stopped a staff member, and asked, "I'm here to see Mr. Marvin, is he here today?"

When the man saw the person coming, there was a smile on his face, "It turned out to be Mr. Xavier. Yes, Mr. Marvin happened to be here today to deal with the matter. I'll report it for you."

Xavier nodded his thanks. Marvin was often ordered to deal with some matters, and the two also knew each other.

in a room.

Ma Wen sat opposite to a person, and he asked with a smile, "How is it? Are you still used to it?"

"Whether it is suitable or not, I just feel very idle, and there is basically nothing that needs me to do. The lord and Mr. Thomas have done so much for me, and I am ashamed of it." Byron said in a shameful tone.

Hearing this, Marvin smiled, "Haha. If you, a Tier [-] knight, are really asked to do hard work like them, it would seem stupid of us."

"Haha."

Byron laughed a few times, and the two chatted for a while, before he asked, "What's the matter with you coming to see me this time?"

Marvin's expression changed, "The issue of compensation has basically been discussed with Viscount Fast, but there is one more important matter. The lord will personally negotiate with Viscount Fast."

Hearing this, Byron's heart trembled. He thought of something important, which was related to him, otherwise Marvin wouldn't have come here to tell him.

"I think you should know what's going on. Don't worry, the lord has taken the initiative. Viscount Fast will let go of your matter, and you won't lose your status as a knight, but you must be present when Viscount Fast comes." Marvin comforted.

"I understand, thank you Lord Lord." Byron said sincerely.

Marvin smiled and didn't speak.

At this time, there was a knock on the door, and the staff of the affairs office came to report that someone was looking for Mr. Marvin.

"Then I won't disturb your work. I still need to watch the construction site." Byron stood up, took the white hat that symbolized the foreman, and strode out of the room.

After a while, Xavier came in, and the two greeted each other.

"Mr. Xavier, no class today?"

"How can I rest, I have to go back to class later."

Xavier shook his head, and then explained the purpose of coming, "Mr. Marvin, I want to ask about the recruiting of new members of the Knights."

Hearing this, Marvin's heart moved, and he guessed the other party's intentions, but on the surface he remained calm, and even joked, "Why does Mr. Xavier care about this matter? Don't tell me you have always had the heart of becoming a knight, so you don't want to teach and want to become a knight?"

"Haha, the knights of the round table are extraordinary. Now everyone in the territory is spreading your deeds, and no one is envious. But I know how capable I am. It's fine to be a knight, but teaching is more suitable for me."

Xavier boasted, and then said: "I just want to ask, has the Knights considered those foreign refugees when recruiting?"

Marvin squinted his eyes slightly. Rather than asking the knights of the round table what they thought, these words were more like probing the lord's intentions.

In the heart of the lord, how did he treat those refugees?

Regardless, Xavier's move has gone above and beyond.

"Mr. Xavier, aren't you taking too much control?" Marvin's voice cooled down.

Xavier was slightly taken aback, the relationship between the two of them should be said to be okay, but he didn't expect to turn his back when he said it.

He said calmly: "Mr. Marvin, you have misunderstood. Many refugees are willing to stay. Influenced by you Knights of the Round Table, the children regard you as heroes. They also want to have a chance to join the Knights."

Listening to these words, Marvin's eyes were fixed on his expression, as if he was judging whether the other party's words were true.

a long time.

"Thank you for telling me this, and I will take what you said back." Marvin said.

"Mr. Raumavin."

Xavier didn't care about Marvin's sudden change of attitude, which was just a proof of his loyalty. From Rosalind's change, he knew how noble the lord had a charismatic personality and a magnanimity that ordinary people didn't have.

In his opinion, the fate of these refugees, the promise is actually very obvious.

-

early morning.

A luxurious carriage stopped in front of the gate of the baron's mansion.

A rich man got off the carriage. He looked at the majestic mansion in front of him with a look of surprise on his face. Page next to him said, "My lord, let's go in."

"Ah, oh, ok, let's go in."

Viscount Fast restrained his expression and entered the baron's mansion with his followers.

Waiting for the living room.

Ron held the final negotiation with Viscount Fast, and there were very few people present. Except for the necessary people, even the maids and servants were not allowed to stay inside.

"Baron Arnold, this is the greatest compensation I can give. For the sake of our friendship, please raise your hand high." Viscount Fast put his posture very low, without any arrogance of aristocrats.

A document was handed to him by Viscount Fast, and was handed over to Ron by Sig. He glanced at the content seemingly casually, but he was very satisfied in his heart.

Fifteen thousand war horses, 140 kilograms of grain, and 300 million gold coins were followed by many clauses. Ron didn't go through them one by one, but no matter which one he expected, he lamented that Viscount Faster is really rich.

Maybe if you continue to squeeze it, you can squeeze out a little bit, but Ron didn't do it, he wanted to leave room for what happened later.

However, Ron still chatted with Viscount Fast for more than ten minutes on this issue, and finally said with a somewhat displeased tone: "Forget it, because of the friendship between us, I don't care about it."

Hearing this, Viscount Fast heaved a sigh of relief. After the negotiation just now, he no longer has any contempt in his heart.

He smiled far-fetchedly and said, "Baron Arnold, now that the matter has been settled, shouldn't my knights who were captured by you?"

coming!

The focus of this negotiation is that Arnold's side captured more than 3000 fast knights, more than half of whom were extraordinary.

Ron asked Joyce to calculate that with the addition of these captive knights, the construction efficiency of the new city will increase by as much as [-]%.

Where can I find the labor force of an extraordinary person who only needs to take care of food?
Ron must not let them go, otherwise it will be a blood loss!
He pretended to change his face, and said in a deep voice: "Viscount Faster, is our friendship so unbearable?"

"what?"

Viscount Fast was in a daze, and he didn't know where he said something wrong, but seeing Ron's expression, he didn't dare to ask at all, so he could only say quickly: "Why? The friendship between the Arnold family and the Fast family lasts forever!"

"Good! Well said."

Ron smiled again, "Viscount Fast, you also know that my territory needs manpower everywhere, and even the new city has just been built. Since we have such a good relationship, don't you want to help our friendship?"

After hearing this, Viscount Fast turned pale, and finally understood what Ron meant. He showed a smile that was uglier than crying, "Baron Arnold, it's not that I don't want to, but my territory also needs to be defended by troops."

In fact, Fastland still has a surplus of troops, but it is not enough to participate in the war. It is still possible to guard against some foreign robbers.

These things, as the former leader of the Fastland Knights, Byron is very clear. In Ron's eyes, there is no secret in the deployment of Fastland's troops.

Ron chuckled, "With our friendship, are you still worried about this? When the time comes, I will naturally send my men to help you."

Hearing his gesture of 'friendship' again, the Viscount Fast became paralyzed, and had no choice but to agree to this point.

If you don’t agree, there is nothing you can do. If they don’t give you money, you can only redeem with money. There are more than 3000 people, that’s a lot of money.

It's better to stay in Arnold's territory. When the time comes, it will be declared as a proof of the friendship between the two families. It is Fastland who helped Arnold to build a new city, and it will be worth it.

Moreover, with the development momentum of Arnold's collar, it will definitely take off in the future. Instead of following that bad guy, it might be better to take this opportunity to build a relationship with the Arnold family.

Viscount Fast tried to comfort himself, and the more he thought about it, the more he found that the benefits hidden in it were huge.

Maybe I should tell Baron Arnold, the person who was hiding and murdering him.

Just as he was about to speak, Ron's voice came, "Viscount Faster, actually I have one more thing to discuss with you."

Hearing this, Viscount Fast woke up from his thoughts, and quickly licked his face and asked with a smile: "Sir Arnold, if you have anything to say, just say it. With our relationship, there is no need to be restrained."

kindness?
Ron was taken aback. This guy was a little abnormal. He waved his hand, and Thomas, who was guarding the door of the hall, opened the door immediately, and a figure walked in.

"Byron!"

Viscount Fast stared angrily, and the anger in his eyes almost burst out, but he quickly realized that it must be about him when Ron called Byron in at this time.

He restrained his emotions, turned to look at Ron, and asked with a smile, "Baron Arnold, who is this?"

Tsk tsk, this emotion management is in place.

Viscount Faster's reaction was beyond Ron's expectations, which disrupted his pace.

Ron pondered for a moment, then said, "Viscount Fast, I don't want to hide from you about our friendship. I have taken a fancy to Knight Byron's ability and want him to work for me."

Hearing this, Fast understands, he is an individual spirit, and Ron's words are telling him that he wants to preserve Byron's knight reputation and let him end his master-slave relationship with Byron.

In this way, Byron is not an act of rebellion, and the reputation remains.

"Of course, in order to make up for your loss, I will make some compensation." After a pause, Ron said again.

"Lord Lord!"

Hearing this, Byron immediately knelt down on one knee. At this moment, he was convinced that he had no virtue or ability to let the Lord lose for him.

Seeing this scene, Viscount Fast felt complicated. Byron had never shown him such respect from the bottom of his heart before.

Baron Arnold is a good means!

And this kind of method makes people not feel insidious, but rather grand.Even for him, there was a trace of admiration in his heart.

Thinking of this, Viscount Fast shook his head, "No need for Baron Arnold, it is his blessing that Knight Byron can follow you."

After a pause, he continued: "I will cancel the nominal contract with him. From today on, Byron will no longer be my knight."

Everyone looked at him with unexpected eyes, as if they knew Viscount Fast again.

Afterwards, a simple and solemn ceremony was held in this waiting room. Knight Byron gave Viscount Fast the last knightly salute, and after the ceremony, he put on his foreman hat and returned to the construction site.

After all the problems were solved, Ron sent the Viscount Fast to the door. The smiles of the two remained the same, as if they were old friends who had known each other for many years.

When Viscount Fast was about to get into the carriage, he whispered: "Baron Arnold, someone actually wants to kill you"

Ron looked at him with strange eyes, and said with a smile: "Viscount Fast, get in the car, and come to my territory to play when you have free time."

".it is good."

His whole body trembled from his eyes, Viscount Fast was sweating on his back, and he was still in shock after getting into the carriage.
