"Oh."
Neos was very calm, looking at the fat man: "What about you?"
"I'm not worth mentioning, not worth mentioning,"
The fat man's face was flushed with a smile, and his cheeks seemed to ooze grease: "I'm just a freight forwarder, and I can't compare to these two."
Nios suddenly said: "Logistics."
"Amazing, this sums it up well. Lord Neos is indeed the Hand of the Queen, a pillar of talent!"
The fat man praised, with a playful expression, he looked at the girl behind him: "Excuse me, is this the daughter of an adult?"
"My Lady Queen's eldest daughter." Neos replied.
"Oh, my lord princess!" The fat man bowed and saluted.
Anya returned the salute gently.
The merchants and nobles on the side, as well as the bald head, glanced at him and frowned at the same time, obviously disgusted by the fat man's attitude.
"Okay, don't say too much, let's start the topic directly."
Nios waved his hand, wiped himself and sat down, and was too lazy to say much: "Let's talk about your request first."
Straightforward and undisguised, this is a completely different attitude from getting along with the Queen.
His face is expressionless, his eyes are frozen, and his speech is like swinging a knife, with a straight arc and fast speed.
Anya was familiar with Master Master's behavior, because it was exactly the same as his expression when he rode his horse and gave orders on the battlefield.
His ice-like aura frightened everyone, and the rich merchants and nobles present were silent for a long time before someone finally stepped forward.
Baitou took the lead in breaking the embarrassment, and his attitude was obviously softened: "Actually, we have no malice towards the queen's arrival, we are just worried that our own safety will be threatened and money will be lost..."
"Are you afraid that I will cut off your money?" Neos glanced lightly.
Baitou was speechless.
"Well, Marcus hopes that Master Neos can restrain your warriors a little bit, and the city is crowded, and I'm afraid it won't be able to accommodate your army..."
The fat man explained with a smile: "After all, we don't want these warriors to receive a bad reception, don't we?"
Neos said "hmm": "I will make Her Majesty the Queen promise that we will strictly restrict the behavior of the warriors, and at the same time temporarily let them live in the Roman barracks to reduce the number of times they enter the city."
"That's really great. I believe that the people in the city will feel at ease." The fat man laughed.
"Also speaking of the military camp, I have a request to tell Lord Neos." The bald man suddenly said.
"Say."
"Before the war, Gatos had his army forcibly confiscate most of my food for military rations."
The bald man showed embarrassment: "Now that the war is over, I hope Lord Neos can help me return these grains."
The audience fell into deathly silence for an instant.
The fat man stared at the bald man with an "are you crazy" expression on his face.
Nios fell silent, stared at him coldly for a while, and tapped the table with his index finger very regularly.
There was a crisp sound, like beating the heart.
The fat man swallowed, his chubby lips were about to part.
Gradually, he was horrified to find that the sound of his heartbeat coincided with the beating sound, and his breathing became short of breath.
The bald man's face also turned pale, and he hurriedly said tremblingly: "For example, if it doesn't work... I, I am willing to pay for it..."
Neos froze his fingers, leaned back slightly, and gave a slight "hmm", as if he was considering this proposal.
The bald man smiled stiffly, not daring to meet his gaze.
After a long time, the corner of Neos' mouth curled up: "It's not impossible."
The air circulated again, and everyone present breathed a sigh of relief, as if they could breathe again.
"But it depends on how much you pay." Neos turned sharply.
"As much as you want..." The bald man was sweating profusely and nodded repeatedly.
"very good."
Nios nodded in satisfaction, raised his chin, and scanned the crowd: "What about you, I believe he is not the only one who was expropriated."
"...anything goes."
"Listen to the adults..."
"As much as you say."
"Everything is according to your arrangement."
"Very well, of course Her Lady Queen is not a devil, so she will not treat you badly." Neos said righteously.
nonsense!
The rich merchants and aristocrats smiled on their faces.
"Ah, yes."
"So there is a big matter here that I want to discuss with you, and this is also the purpose of my trip." Neos was sitting.
"You say."
"Everyone knows that winter is coming, and there will be no food and grass. Her lordship is sympathetic to the people's sentiments, and she does not want to see people without food in the cold winter, and without firewood."
After a righteous speech, Nios was like a virtuous minister pleading for the people: "So I plan to collect public grain and firewood from the people of the whole city,
All are placed in the public warehouse, and when the cold winter comes, they will be distributed according to needs and given to each household. It must be ensured that no one will freeze to death or starve to death this winter! "
After finishing speaking, he looked at everyone: "So what do you think?"
A group of people looked at each other, or thoughtful, or discussed in low voices.
Until the fat man stood up and asked, "Then may I ask, do we also have to pay public food?"
"Of course not. You paid for your food, so it has nothing to do with us." Nios said.
After speaking, everyone was overjoyed.
This is the Human Queen using her reputation to create demand for them!
First use force and violence to expropriate food from the people, and then sell the food to rich merchants at high prices. The people have no food to survive the winter, and can only buy food from rich merchants at a higher price.
The leeks were cropped one by one, and the two groups of people on the top had a great time harvesting them.
"Sure! Her Majesty the Queen really loves her subjects more than the Roman Emperor!"
"We will definitely support Her Lady Queen!"
Everyone talked.
Anya's face paled even more, and she looked at Neos, puzzled and shocked.
This is the first time she has seen the dark side of the master.
This almost ruthless indifference, as if all creatures in the world are nothing more than pawns in their hands, no wonder Grandma suddenly changed her attitude.
But the girl pursed her lips. Even though she witnessed it with her own eyes, she still had some thoughts in her heart, which made her firmly believe that the master was not this kind of person.
......
Go out in a congratulations.
The girl fell behind the man, bowing her head in silence.
After walking for a while, Nios suddenly stopped. Anya couldn't react in time, and bumped her head on his waist.
After a soft cry, the girl looked up with a little bit of confusion.
"Don't you have anything to ask?" Neos said softly.
Anya bit her lip and shook her head.
"I don't want to, or I don't know." Nios said.
The girl hesitated for a moment: "I don't know."
"That's good, that's the meaning of bringing you out today."
Neos nodded: "Before, I taught you the overall situation of the world and the favorable terrain, but today I will teach you about people and chapters."
"Renhe?" The girl tilted her head.
"Yes, the right time is not as good as the right place, and the right place is not as good as the harmony of the people. The harmony of the people is the most important of the three."
Nios pulled her to sit down at the square fountain: "Let me explain to you why I did that."
The girl said "oh".
"First of all, this involves a basic principle. This is also the most fundamental and longest-lasting problem if everyone wants to accomplish one thing." Neos raised his index finger, extremely serious.
The girl was secretly startled and listened attentively.
"Who is our friend and who is our enemy?"
Neos' words are like the voice of the ancients, reaching the soul.
"Friend? Enemy?" Aniya stared at his dark eyes, repeating these two words unconsciously.
"Yes, but if you want to know these two questions, you must conduct in-depth and detailed investigations, classify and classify the crowd." Neos said in a low voice.
The girl frowned and thought for a moment, then shook her head: "I don't really understand."
"It's okay, let's simplify everything, don't care about everyone's identity and appearance, let's just look at the most fundamental point." Nios said.
"What is it?"
"Lee!" Neos said decisively.
"profit?"
"Yes, everyone in the world is for profit. Everyone's seemingly complicated behaviors, seemingly childish actions, are mostly just for the word 'profit'."
Neos said in a deep voice: "The reason why they are sticking to their position and sitting in their position unswervingly is because that position can bring them benefits."
It's like hitting a walnut with a small hammer, and a crack appears.
