Power and Empire Chapter 2917: Mad Blood (28)


In the reception room of the Bokali Chamber of Commerce, the head of the Chamber of Commerce Mao Moraun tore a trade contract into several pieces with both hands, then gently placed it on the table, and said indifferently, "I'm sorry, the original agreement This is forfeited. The price is not discussed. If you feel that the Bokali Chamber of Commerce’s price is too high, you can choose to buy from other chambers of commerce. It’s your wish to do business. Don’t worry, even if you’re not from us. The Cali Chamber of Commerce buys food, and we will not interfere! But in Lisbon, who doesn’t know, the food sold by the Bokali Chamber of Commerce is labelled with the Momo family, so I can easily walk anywhere in the empire. Regions, other chambers of commerce, don’t know if there are such privileges!"

Across from him sits a middle-aged man from Aden who is about fifty years old, with a slightly blessed figure, wearing a large one-piece Aden robe, and behind his seat, there is a golden man standing. The young Aden man in the gorgeous clothes saw Mao Moraun ruthlessly tearing up the trade agreement. The young man clenched his fingers violently and his face flushed. The other party was too hateful, and he was obviously insulting Abra. The family, what do you mean by my wish, have already signed an agreement, just before loading the grain on the ship, suddenly changed their minds, not only pulled all the grain away, but also tore up the trade this time. The agreement even hurt people, just like that, I still call you my wish! Even a robber would not sit down and talk with the victim carelessly after robbing someone. It is simply shameless!

"Mao Moraun is really joking, but it's just an agreement. The two parties have not delivered the goods or the payment, then it is not considered to have been established. Now that there are changes, we can re-negotiate, just Your Chamber of Commerce suddenly doubled the price of the original price. With such a large amount of funds, even our Abra’s family still needs a little time to raise funds, so.

"Of course, this should be the case. At any rate, we are also regular customers with more than ten transactions. This problem is understandable"

Mao Moraun waved his hand relaxedly, stood up from the seat, turned his back on his back, looked at the tree branches swinging in the wind outside the window, and said, "In three days, this is the best I can give. It’s a limit. You know, in addition to your Abra’s chambers of commerce, the Adinghao chambers of commerce such as Baibury and Carmendon are also staring at this batch of food! It’s already in mid-April, and there will be two more months. The harvest season of new grains in the north, so I’m not afraid to tell you that this batch of grain is already the last batch of grain this year. If you don’t want it, someone will naturally rush to ask for it!"

"Okay, three days is three days!"

The middle-aged man nodded and stood up, expressing his satisfaction with the meeting. After a few words of greeting, he led the people to leave the Bokali Chamber of Commerce, walked out of the door of the Bokali Chamber of Commerce and stepped into the carriage outside. The middle-aged man was full The kind expression on his face became hideous and terrifying, and he whispered, "Mao Moraun, this vampire just wants to take advantage of the fire! Double the price, he really dared to shout, he thought I didn't know it was all this time. The food stored for more than two years will only be rotten if you don’t sell it. I even dared to sell it to us at twice the price of the new food! If it weren’t for the Maomo family brand, I would have used the machete handle fiercely. Smash his face!"

"Elder Abu, I don’t understand why we have to buy grain from the Bokali Chamber of Commerce. The price has doubled. Not to mention, it’s still food for many years. There are so many Chambers of Commerce in Lisbon. Food!" Said the young golden man who sat down opposite the middle-aged businessman

"His Royal Highness, you don’t know that the background of this Bokali Chamber of Commerce is the Maomo family of the first princess of the empire. The first princess is in charge of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of the empire. Unimpeded is not a false statement, and even the Imperial Navy will not overly divide the goods of the difficult Maomo family. If anyone can guarantee that the food will be delivered to the destination, it must be the Bokali Chamber of Commerce!" The corner of the middle-aged man's mouth. A wry smile explained that the Abra’s family also belonged to a well-known local lord in the Kingdom of Aden, so it’s not an exaggeration for young people to call it His Royal Highness,

In the Kingdom of Aden, there are as many princes as feathers. The royal family of Aden has princes, regional lords have princes, and princes are also princes. In the cultural traditions of desert people, princes are actually a noble name that represents identity, and there is no such thing as Europa A strict division.

The middle-aged man's voice paused, his hand gently opened the curtain of the carriage, took a look to the street outside, and said, "This time the army of the kingdom is in a desperate situation in the Cornelia area, and the army's logistics have been burnt down. Who is now? If you can transport food to Cornelia as soon as possible, whoever is the hero of the whole kingdom"

"There has been news from the country that this time the family with the most food, His Majesty the King will directly give him the Baihe Su Da Oasis in a radius of 30 miles."

"You mean Baihe Su Da Oasis!" Hearing the name mentioned by the middle-aged man, the young man trembled before showing a face of astonishment and disbelief, which shows how shocking it is.

"Yes, it is the Baihe Su Da Oasis, known as the Liujing of Aden!" The middle-aged people seemed to have known that young people would be like this for a long time, so they nodded with a certain look and said, "The source of the news will not be a problem. , The Baihe Su Oasis of thirty miles, although in terms of area, and the kind of large oasis of more than a hundred miles, but the Baihe Su Oasis is veritable to have this white river across, the least abundant water resources There will not be a desert crisis in three or four hundred years. Unlike the Ganlin Oasis obtained by the Arita family, although it is so large in size, it was only half submerged by the spreading wind and sand in less than 20 years. It was also broken, and now there is a bare shoal where is ""Baihesu is not only the core area of ​​the caravan, but also the famous Baihedian is on the side of the Baihe River that runs through the Baihe Su Oasis. , This time is also pressing, the royal family even gave up this heartfelt, the owner of the family ordered all the properties on the southern coast to be sold into money, it is for this matter! The merchants of the Falcon Empire will take the opportunity to raise prices , This is something that has been expected for a long time, there is no need to fight with the empires, what we want is actually the amulet of the Maomo family!"

"That's it, I understand!"

The young golden man looked excited, a profit-only imperial man, how could he know that compared to this Baihe Su Da Oasis, which is known as Aden Liujing, the price of food is twice as small as that! As long as it can be labelled as the Mammoth family and successfully transported to Cornelia from the imperial business line, it will be three or four times as long, and the family will buy it without hesitation! Just think about being able to walk across the White River in a boat. The two banks are vast oasis and woodland. That feeling makes him tremble with excitement. How can people who have not lived in the desert know that water means to people in the desert? What, where there is water, people can live. Sometimes, when young people see these imperial people wasting water for whatever they want, they have the urge to draw knives and chop people. How come good water is spilled on the ground, but In order to suppress the smoke and dust raised by the caravan wagon wheels! "Crack" Just when the two had countless illusions about Liujing, the carriage turned into an alley, suddenly shocked, and stopped

"What's going on?" The middle-aged man's face changed slightly. There was still more than ten minutes away from the destination. He poked his head out of the carriage window, but he was stunned by the scene in front of him. The coachman leaned on the chair with a cluster of arrows hanging around his neck. The whole neck was soft and low on one side. The reins of the carriage had slipped from his hands, and the two carriage horses had come to a complete stop and were bowing their heads.

On the roof of a two-story building on the left side of the alley, a masked archer is placing the second arrow on the bowstring, and the other two masked warriors have their legs slightly bent, Jumping into the air, like two iron harriers, one on the left and the right fell fiercely towards the carriage, and the big trousers with leggings and feet swelled into the wind,

Wow, the moment he stood firmly on the top of the carriage, one of the sturdy desert warriors, with a large scimitar in his hand, was slammed on the roof of the carriage by the force of falling. The sawdust flew horizontally and his mouth was still Underestimating what he said, he was hit by a cold light from the breach, and his body rolled from the top of the two-meter-high carriage to the ground. A small cluster of arrows was inserted into his stomach, and the arrow had completely penetrated the attacker’s. The belly, the exposed white feathers are shaking. This is a short hunting bow. It is a self-defense weapon developed by the desert nobles. It is usually a mechanical spring device mounted on the iron sleeve of the arm. After shooting one, I think It’s difficult to load the second one,

The sturdy desert warriors did not expect to encounter short hunting bows here. Desert nobles have a tradition of invading short hunting bows and arrows. Most of them are anesthetics, which will gradually make the arrows hit. Paralysis, most of them will be caught alive in the end! So this kind of arrow cluster must be pulled out, grinning and holding the end of the arrow cluster with your hand and pulling, the red intestines are coming out

Another desert warrior saw his companion injured and jumped to the ground in an arc of anger. The scimitar slammed into the car door with great force,

"Slap" the door of the car was almost shattered, and the desert warrior kicked on it, and the door was completely dead

"What a great power!" The middle-aged man and the young golden man in the carriage took a breath of air-conditioning, and swiftly and skillfully drew a machete from under the carriage seat

"Your Majesty, I'll go kill a way and go right away!" The middle-aged man looked savage and jumped down shouting, fighting with the desert warrior who opened the door, desperately driving the desert warrior back a few times. Step, the young man turned around and wanted to jump down, whoosh! A spiky arrow with a gust of wind swept it from a place just a few centimeters away from the car door, and the young man’s cold sweat had come down. If he didn’t hesitate just now, he didn’t have time to jump out, then this arrow The position is exactly the position of his head, just like a coachman who has completely died, the other party has a habit of shooting people in the head!

At the moment of hesitation, slap, the second arrow shot in from the car window

Fortunately, the opponent couldn't see the specific situation in the car, so the arrow was shot missed. With a piece of sawdust, it wiped the young man’s face and stuck it firmly on the table in the carriage. No way, the other side’s. The shooter is too powerful, so getting off the car is a dead end! The young golden man gritted his teeth, hesitated, and suddenly pulled out something from the chain around his neck. It was something like a whistle. The young man put it in his mouth and inhaled vigorously with a loud eagle croak. From the eagle whistle in the young golden man’s mouth, the voice was loud and clear, causing everyone around to look at the place where the sound was sounding.

Ah, the third arrow hit the young man’s thigh. The blood was dripping. The young man held the thigh with his hands, still blowing the eagle whistle reluctantly in his mouth, and his voice became higher and higher

The security of Lisboa is very good. Within ten minutes, people from the nearby police station arrived in the alley. In the dark alley, the fighting has stopped at this moment. The attackers are nowhere to be seen. What is in front of them is A carriage that is almost falling apart, there are two **** people leaning on the carriage at the carriage's reel. Fortunately, they can still gasp for breath, and there is a **** corpse on the ground.

"Aden again!"

The security captain who led the team walked over cautiously, his eyes fell on the coat of arms on the broken carriage, his eyebrows frowned,

"We are the Yehe Chamber of Commerce and I don't know what's going on! The other party should be trying to rob us halfway. They are all small thieves!"

The middle-aged man stood up while gritting his teeth~IndoMTL.com~ His right arm was stabbed, blood was soaked in the robe along the wound, and the young man supported him. For the attacker, the middle-aged businessman did not Would you like to say anything more. During this time, the Aden businessmen in Lisbon are all crazy. Although Lisbon is a commercial sea trade center, the amount of food is so large. If some chambers of commerce can’t get enough food, they will give their ideas. He hit other Aden Chamber of Commerce that had food in his hands, assaulted, assassinated, intimidated, and even robbed the warehouse by force. Anyway, as long as he got the food and exchanged it to the Baihe Su Oasis, it would be worthwhile to compensate the other party for some losses afterwards!

"Little thief? When did the little thief already use the bows and arrows of the Aden Army!" The captain of the security sneered, and threw an arrow torn from the car door in front of the two of them, and the arrow was on the tail rod. There is a white crescent mark which is the mark of the Aden army standard arrow cluster.

"It seems that the identity of the attacker is also from Aden! This is the sixth attack in the last ten days. The targets of the attack are all Aden businessmen without exception, and in the market, all The Aden businessmen in Aden are all frantically buying food, the price has doubled and the supply is still in short supply. Now they are killing their own compatriots. What do you want to do!" The security captain is completely angry. These Aden people have already made Lisbon trust. The chickens and dogs are restless, and people who don't know think that the sheriffs in Lisbon are all wine and rice bags! (To be continued.) 8
