The Summoner
Chapter 40: . Learning about bribery
Loved looked at Adrien with anticipation and eagerness. Although the dark circles proved that he didn't sleep well last night, and his dark face was full of exhaustion, he couldn't hide the excitement in his eyes because he was about to be rescued.
Susan’s murder of his mother has been implicated in many cases, and he will be severely punished as the main person in charge.
Even Viscount Mandel had given a death order in the rage.
The case must be resolved within a week!
But now I have traced the 3 antenna cables, not to mention the murderer, even Mao did not find anything!
How could Lovefield not be anxious and panicked? If the murderer is really not found, he, as the sheriff of the quagmire town and the captain of the investigation of the Turquoise Fort, is responsible for this matter. And the result must not be too good.
When he was desperately planning to spend money to go to the Turquoise Fort and manage all the people who could speak in front of the Viscount Mandel, he came to the conclusion that no one dared to easily participate in this case of the murder of the mother, unless Someone can really speak and speak on this matter, they are willing to cooperate, otherwise they will not say anything at all.
This is the murder of the turquoise family's mistress, or in their own territory, the murderer robbed all the property, which represents no longer a simple robbery and murder, but a humiliation to the turquoise family!
No nobility will tolerate such provocations and humiliation, and will not choose to devour blood by default.
Someone must be responsible.
Or…
Back to the pot!
Of course, Loved is the best candidate. Who is responsible for public security?!
Even if he is not the murderer of the murder of the mistress, he must be careful of the face of the turquoise family and sentenced him to collude with the gangster to assassinate the mistress, and then be sentenced to hang, and even be executed on the same day.
The turquoise family needs to step down and save their faces.
Although everyone knows that he is a scapegoat.
But who cares?
As long as the face of the turquoise family is preserved, it is a good game.
Nobles are like this. Lovefield, who has been with the turquoise family for more than 10 years, of course understands the tone inside, and even knows that if he is taken down, even his long-term accumulation of property will be suffered and left in the hands of his wife and children The possibility is extremely low. It is estimated that he has not been thoroughly cooled, so he will be extorted and cleaned by various people.
This is also the reason why he is so eager to turn to Adrien. It is one of them to speak in front of Viscount Mandel. The second is his expensive filial piety. Even if he dies, his family can get this. The young master takes refuge.
The cruelty of reality is just a kind of horror that comes from the depths of the soul.
Extremely horrible!
…………
Adrien understood his thoughts, but had no intention of leaving. Instead, he sat quietly in the chair and looked at the report in the letter, even without raising his head, he said indifferently: "Shouldn't we eat breakfast before setting off?"
Lofid wiped his greasy face: "Everything follows your schedule!"
"My arrangement?"
Adrien's lips turned slightly: "I really have to arrange it."
Putting down the letter in his hand, he turned his head to sweep Lofid’s dull face due to last night’s labor, dark circles and sallow skin, and a stubble full of mouth, plus the wrinkled clothes because he slept without taking off his clothes , The tone is a bit playful: "Do you think you can meet my self-disciplined father like this?"
"Of course it's rude." Lovefield swallowed and thought of the habit of Viscount Mandel, his greasy face was more sweaty, and he quickly bowed his head and humbly said: "Thanks to your reminder, Master Adrian !"
"Then don't be stupid here!" Adrien waved: "Hurry up."
"Yes!" Lovefield quickly retreated to the second floor room to wash up.
He is not unfamiliar with the interior of the rotten algae gang headquarters. As the top character of the gray-black gang in the mudflat town, he used to be a guest because of Feiduo's invitation, and even received bribes in this headquarters.
After all, he is the sheriff, and he is qualified to manage these gangue gangs. The reason why he opened the net to the gangue is not only the timely payment of the monthly black money, but also because Adrien is a big turquoise castle. Master, he didn't dare to go too far. He can't afford to offend the aristocratic class now, even if he is a master who lost his heir.
Just when Lovefield returned to the room on the second floor, Fedo also just opened the door and came out. The two nodded to each other, but there was not much communication, and they just staggered again.
There is nothing to talk about.
Feiduo went downstairs.
He naturally needs to communicate with Adrien.
Hurrying up to the lobby, seeing Adrien still looking at the letter, and hurriedly went over to salute her chest respectfully: "Master, these are yesterday's copywriting briefings, nothing unusual happened, and even the two major churches did not pay much attention. At 2am, the siege was lifted and all the church guards were evacuated."
"Um." Adrian reached out and put the envelope on the table and nodded. "It's a good job. The records above are also very detailed. It can be seen that you have worked hard."
"Thank you for your compliment."
Fei Duo humbly bowed his head, but did not look proud.
He stooped slightly and reported to Adrien Hui in a soft voice: "The guy at Lofield came at 4 a.m., and he also brought 2 small sacks. The feel inside was all shilling silver coins." He said Seriously said: "Loffield did not elaborate, just said it was for you, don't you know?"
"Shilling?" Adrien nodded and said calmly, "How much?"
"Probably…"
Feiduo estimated after a little estimation: "1000 shillings!"
Adrien nodded: "That's right." This is Loved's life money, and it's the fee he would use to educate this guy to discourage Mandel. They reached a deal late last night.
"I put it in your room?" Feidow asked.
"Ok."
Adrien nodded calmly: "There is one more thing." He told Fedo: "From today, send someone to the market to buy me 3000 pounds of cheap peas, as well as a variety of fresh minced meat and You can use internal organs. The more the better, the minimum should not be less than 2000 pounds per week. If you have money, you can spend on the property of the rotten algae."
"3000 pounds of peas and 2000 pounds of fresh meat?" Feiduo's face was a little stunned: "Master, if I heard correctly, would it be every week?"
"Yes." Adrien nodded.
"The Holy Light is on!"
Feiduo even brought out the spoken words in Warcraft: "This is too much!"
His tone is very helpless: "If it is bacon bacon or the like, it is okay, but it is fresh meat, it is really very difficult. After all, there are so many weekly, only the hunters in the mud town hunt , And it is not possible to get a full harvest every week, which is difficult to do in reality."
"Then spend money to increase the price!" Adrien needs these natures for the creatures in the natural space, perhaps the least eaten inside are the Nord Warriors, who are usually the meals of the middle ages, and those Skaven ratmen and snow Rat-wolf wild boars are simply rice buckets, and the food consumed every week is definitely 2000 pounds!
"Understood." Feiduo could only nod his head. "I will arrange the villains of the Rotten Algae Gang to urge those hunters. At the same time, I will purchase them at a price higher than the market price. It will definitely be fresh meat."
"Well." Adrien nodded. "It's up to you to do it, don't be afraid to spend money."
"Observe!"
Fei Duo nodded, which is at least good news.
Now Adrien does not care too much about the consumption of money. After all, when he left from Turquoise Fort, his father gave him 1,000 shillings of assets. The shilling is enough for him to maintain a high level of luxury in the past 3 years.
After all, in any world, as long as there is a concept of civilization and currency in circulation, money is something that can solve most problems, and problems that can be solved with money are not a problem for Adrien.
…………
The two were chatting, and the servants in the kitchen brought breakfast.
Very hearty.
The main dish in the tray is a rich grilled river fish, sprinkled with expensive spice and fresh cress leaves to enhance the fragrance. Although not the hand of a famous chef, it is also very attractive. It is qualified as breakfast.
The meal also includes wild pigeons fried in flour and sweet soup made from berries.
Naturally, white bread is indispensable.
High-end breakfast.
Of course, Fedo and Loved also have.
Soon Lofid came back from the room and changed into new clothes. His hair and face were clean and tidy. Even his beard was shaved with a razor. Although the dark circles still exist, the overall appearance is negligible. a lot of.
The three of them started to eat breakfast and didn't say much, but just chatted casually.
But Lofid's expression calmed down a lot.
no way.
Bribery is also a senior knowledge.
Sometimes, instead of accepting bribes, they will be terrified and timid, and they will crush themselves psychologically.
But Adrien accepted his bribe, which means that this thing has already been done. If he is not sure to persuade Viscount Mandel, or if there is no other means to guarantee him, it will not be accepted.
Reputation is more important in this world, otherwise there will be no cumbersome etiquette.
Chewing sounds are getting less.
Breakfast has been eaten up in all my heart.
Fedo has sent people to prepare the horses for riding, and is waiting for use in the stable.
After a short break, Adrien and Lofid rode a horse and walked out of the mud town, and just at the gate, a team of reconnaissance cavalry belonging to the turquoise castle was waiting there as a trip Escort.
According to experience, they have to travel 4 hours before returning to the turquoise fort.
But don't worry.
They just passed before noon.
Adrien knows clearly that his father will deal with government affairs after lunch, and in the morning time, it is usually used to inspect the castle or to check whether the knights and servants are diligent.
As a real power family on the border, the turquoise family faces many enemies.
The half-orc in the dark jungle is one of them.
