Section 342: Huge Harvest
As soon as Long Yan heard this, he knew that the old mage was going to have an operation, so he immediately became serious and asked hurriedly, "What are the conditions?"
"The White Bird family's series of actions have made it unbearable for us. Just gold coins obviously cannot satisfy the children. So, my little guy came up with another way to compensate!" The old mage He said with a smile: "They don't want money anymore, they only want Yis and Lan'er!"
As soon as the old mage said this, almost everyone present screamed in surprise. Yis and Lan'er are two large cities in the White Bird Principality, close to the border of the Griffin Kingdom, and there are more than a dozen towns below. The areas under the jurisdiction of these two cities each have more than 10,000 square kilometers of land, and each has a population of about hundreds of thousands. They are also good places for griffins, and together they account for almost one-fifth of the White Bird Principality. Griffon production. How can you give such an important place away casually?
After hearing this, Long Yan smiled bitterly and said, "You have such a big appetite? However, land is too serious. After all, it is inherited from the ancestors. If it is lost from his hands, what do you think? How can he meet his ancestors after his death?"
Long Yan immediately relayed what Grand Duke White Bird had just said to him to the old mage.
However, the old mage was well prepared and sneered unceremoniously: "What's so shameless about this? Wasn't the first head of the White Bird family who became famous a bandit-turned-thief? Ha, Speaking of which, his family is considered a family of thieves, so no wonder his son would return to his ancestral business!"
The old mage's sarcasm scolded Grand Duke White Bird so badly that his face turned blue and purple, but he couldn't find a chance to refute.
The old mage then continued, "In addition, his family's land was also snatched by various means. Since they can take it, why can't they lose it?"
"This~" When Long Yan heard this, he was a little bit dumbfounded. Then he shook his head helplessly and said: "Okay, okay, you are reasonable, but... you want two cities at once. Isn't that too much?" Point it? You know, the millions of gold coins you were robbed can’t even buy a city!”
"Then if we include the sword master and an artifact they kidnapped, it should be about the same, right?" Lao Xie suddenly interjected: "If it still doesn't work, then add in the fright we received this time, The crime of murdering the heirs of the Stephen family and the Hercules family is probably worth a city!"
"Yes!" The old mage also nodded: "That's what it means. These two cities are not here to compensate for the goods and gold coins, but to punish them for murdering the noble heirs. Besides, we have two victims here. , how do we divide a city?”
After hearing this. Grand Duke Shiratori couldn't bear it anymore and stood up angrily, roaring: "This is absolutely impossible! I will not give you the land left by my ancestors!"
As soon as the old mage heard this, he immediately pulled his face down, and then sneered: "Did you make a mistake? I am giving face to Lord Longyan. I used this method instead of punishment. If you If you really don’t want to, then we can only meet on the battlefield. I think the emperor of our country will be happy to say this for me!”
Although the old mage’s words were arrogant. But everyone knows it is indeed true. With the robbery of Stephen and the Hercules family as an interface, if the Griffin Kingdom really launches a large-scale attack, even the Principality of Chaos and the Dragon Territory will not be able to directly send troops to intervene. There is no way, who calls the White Bird Principality to be in the wrong? Not only did he rob someone worth millions of gold coins, but he also attempted to kill people and silence them. No one would be able to tolerate this?
What's more, the Griffin Kingdom has long coveted the wealth of the White Bird Principality, but it was only because of their alliance with the Dragon Territory and the Chaos Principality. They had to maintain a balanced situation for the time being. But now that there is such a good opportunity to attack, the emperor of the Griffin Kingdom is probably too happy to close his mouth. How can he not support it?
Of course Grand Duke White Bird knew the seriousness of the matter, but he couldn't defeat the old mage, so he had to ask Long Yan for help again.
But Long Yan couldn't do anything this time, because he had already spoken to Grand Duke Shiratori just now, and the other party had given him face. He couldn't help but ask others to give in over and over again. That would obviously be a bit too much.
If your own side is far stronger than the opponent. Of course, longan can be unreasonable. Unfortunately, the current situation is that my side and others seem to be evenly matched. No one can completely suppress anyone. And if you include the hidden legendary mage on the opposite side, you are even worse than the opponent. In this case, longan is naturally not to be taken too far. Because if he threatens further, he will only anger the other party and trigger a lose-lose war. Although Long Yan's heart was towards Duke Shiratori, he was not willing to risk his life for him.
Therefore, this time Grand Duke Shiratori’s request did not receive a response from Long Yan. Instead, he made a helpless expression, meaning, you can do it yourself, there is nothing I can do.
Seeing this situation, Grand Duke Shiratori suddenly felt a sense of despair in his heart. In this short period of time, he seemed to have aged several years.
Then, the entire pergola fell into silence. Grand Duke Shiratori lowered his head in frustration, constantly weighing the pros and cons. And the old mage rarely forced him further and allowed him to hesitate. Anyway, no matter what Grand Duke White Bird chooses in the end, the old mage will only make profits but not lose money, so he is naturally not in a hurry.
After thinking for a while, Grand Duke Shiratori seemed to have figured it out. His eyes became clear again, the frustration and confusion just now disappeared, and he suddenly turned back into the decisive and decisive White Bird Archduke before.
After he figured it out, he immediately raised his head, took a deep breath, and then said to the old mage: "Is and Lan'er? Right?"
"Not bad!" The old mage nodded.
"In principle, we can consider it!" Grand Duke Shiratori said affirmatively at first, then changed the topic and said again, "However, I also have conditions. If you agree, then I will give them to you. If not, Then I would rather let them turn into scorched earth in the war than give you any advantage!”
After hearing this, the old mage's eyes suddenly lit up, and he said with slight appreciation, "Okay, you have courage!"
Then he said with a smile: "Okay, tell me your conditions! As long as it's not too much, I should agree!"
"Okay!" Grand Duke Shiratori nodded, and then said: "First of all, Is and Laner are of great value, and any city can be enough to offset the loss of your goods and people. So you are not allowed to ask for anything else from us. We can’t even take back the stolen goods!”
"Yeah~" When the old mage heard this, he immediately frowned and then looked at Lao Xie.
Lao Xie immediately said: "You can give up the things, but the people you robbed must return them to me!"
"You mean those Berserker slaves?" Grand Duke Shiratori frowned and said, "I asked, they have all been sold, and I don't have any left here!"
"Then you must tell me who they sold to!" Lao Xie said slightly angrily.
"Okay, that's no problem!" Grand Duke Shiratori nodded, and then said: "I can provide you with the information, but you must spend your own money to redeem it!"
"Okay!" Lao Xie was too lazy to worry about such a trivial matter at this time. He could only redeem the barbarians for tens of thousands of gold coins at most. Although this is a lot, those two cities can provide an income of hundreds of thousands of gold coins in almost a year. In comparison, tens of thousands of gold coins are nothing at all.
Seeing Lao Xie agree, Grand Duke White Bird breathed a sigh of relief, and then continued, "In addition, I hope this matter can be treated as if it never happened. You must promise me to keep it secret. Just treat it as such and give it to our White Bird family. Save some face!" Grand Duke Shiratiao said this, his expression full of pain.
"Okay!" Lao Xie nodded directly and agreed. Anyway, to him, the reputation of the White Bird family is not worth mentioning at all. As long as the city can get it, it is appropriate to give them some sweetness.
"Thank you!" Grand Duke Shiratori said gratefully, and then he said solemnly: "As for the last condition, it is the disposal of Buton and Lan Shite. I hope you can hand them over to me!"
The old mage became a little annoyed when he heard it, and couldn't help but said angrily, "That boy Buton was unjust, I know that, and I don't care if you don't deal with him, but that boy Lan Shite actually dared to Do you still want to protect him despite his intentions?"
"No no!" Grand Duke Shiratori said hurriedly: "He is indeed a bastard, so I will definitely teach him a lesson. Not only will he be disqualified from being the heir, but I will also ground him. However, he is my only one after all. How can I bear to see my son die? Do I have to pay the price of two cities for his life?"
"Yes!" Lao Xie directly agreed from the side: "I only want Yis and Lan'er, and it doesn't matter to me whether your son lives or lives! However, you must also promise me that you will not play tricks when handing over the city. If you don't like it, believe me, not only will your son be saved, but your grandson will also be in danger!"
