To Four Thousand Years Later

v3 Chapter 29: life money

"Marquis of Povatou, I think this is what you want."

A somewhat high-minded man laughed in a low voice: "I swear to you, take a look first... just take a look, and you will know that I have definitely not wasted your time. This fat man makes people feel obscene Speaking Burgundian, wearing three rings on his right hand. The vulgar accent made Guyvari wrinkle his head in disgust.

Early this morning, as soon as Juivari woke up, he heard that someone wanted to see him. Originally, he didn't want to pay attention to this kind of person at all, but this overly high-spirited businessman spread the word that this was a major event about the life and death of the Povato family.

Ju Yili changed his mind.

To be on the safe side, let's meet again. Anyway, it won't waste much time, if he is really fooled, he will definitely make the fat man pay the price for teasing himself; but if there is really a big deal, he should be more cautious at this time, so he might keep his indifferent tone and casual demeanor He asked, "What do you want?" Juivari often dealt with merchants on the east side of the sea, and he knew how to bargain with them.

The point is, in front of businessmen, you can't act like you're tempted anyway.

That means telling the other person "I need this stuff badly, please feel free to bid".

His face was tense, and there was too much rigidity on his thin face. It made him look more like a man of culture than a great aristocrat.

"Don't rush, don't...

Seeing his indifferent appearance, the fat businessman was really not in a hurry.

He rubbed his hands calmly, and took out a roll of parchment from his arms. Under Du Juanhou's somewhat disgusted gaze, he licked his greasy brown fingers, and deftly untied the hemp rope.

"You take a look first. It would be better to price it later.

The fat businessman turned the side with the words upside down on the table, and with a disgusting smile, he pushed it forward slowly with his short and thick fingers. Juivari's expression darkened again. But instead of attacking, he glanced at the merchant. He picked up Na Shi and took a quick look. Afterwards, Juivari's expression immediately changed to what was written on the parchment scroll, and there were two things in total.

The first half is about the condemnation of Solomon I - he claimed that Dujuanhou murdered the late King Buping III, Prince Carloman and Princess Goboga. And tried to assassinate himself. Combined punishment for several crimes. Will make him "pay his dues" and the second half is more than two dozen names. Guyvari knew half of them... they were either Carloman's supporters. Either aristocrats who married the Goths. What they have in common is that they all have high official positions or titles. Guyvari immediately put the side with the lettering on the table. His expression was cloudy and uncertain, but he soon settled down. With a gentle voice, he told the guards guarding him to leave the room first. After everyone left, he frowned and asked in a low voice, "Who are you? Who do you obey?"

"I don't obey anyone. I'm just an ordinary head of water." The fat man said with a smile: "I smell the smell of getting rich, so I came here."

Guyvari murmured in a low voice, feeling a little humiliated.

I also know that I have been completely exposed. He couldn't hide his desire for this information. He knew who Shuitou was.

In the past, in the southern desert, some people would follow immature caravans like vultures, and when they were about to die of thirst, they would come and pass the news of "where is the water source" at a very high price? Loathed and feared as the incarnation of death, many people even think that they only exist in legends... because they will not appear in front of the poor. Although they themselves do not bring any danger of death, it is often believed that waterheads have the ability to make people collapse. Like a crow, or a vulture. Later, they not only haunted Egypt, but also gradually spread to neighboring countries. It is said that their leader is an unknown person who can predict the future, so they got a lot of information, used this information to blackmail others, and accumulated a lot of wealth.

And they also have mysterious powers. The water heads are also monsters. It is said that those who kill them will be cursed to death in their dreams, and their deaths are miserable, as if they were drowned. The fat man smiled kindly: "I'm sorry for the little one. Lord Marquis. Let me introduce myself. My name is Malajiji. Not long ago, I was working as a security consultant for the Earl of Burgundy, but because he is not so friendly to the little one. ...I mean, he didn't think he would encounter any disaster or anything, so he didn't want to pay that money. So I had to find another way out. The name sounds like Xiaowu. Juivari thought Ruo sneered, but didn't show it.

"I believe you.

Du Juanhou said in a deep voice: "I will give you ten pounds of gold every year, how about you come to serve me?"

"Ten pounds? Ha, this price is just enough to buy two-thirds of the volume of the list." Shumalajiji smiled, and stretched out three fingers: "Thirty pounds is the same price. The list plus one years of information, I can also personally help you convince them... I advise you not to bargain with me, seeing that the person who is about to drown is you, not me. Of course Du Juanhou thought to himself.

A few days ago, the Gothic Stone King passed through his wife's dream. Let the witches pass him new news. His Majesty the King of Stone wants to let himself 2 attract the attention of Solomon I. If Solomon asks to go to war, he will never back down, and they will help him at the critical moment. At that time Du Juanhou was also dubious.

Will they come to love and help themselves? Start a war with Solomon I for yourself?

is it possible? Has the conflict between them intensified to this extent? What are they drawing? A solid enemy ally? No, they don't lack that kind of thing. Marquis Dujuan probably knows a part about "witches". All nobles who marry Gothic women may belong to the Stone King. If he really fights, Wallachia will lose its meaning as an eyeliner and a hidden danger. One Tadu Tua was removed and regarded as an enemy, that is, an independent isolated land. Forcing Wallachia to be independent...and then sending troops to capture it?

Originally, Marquis Du Juan was dubious about this matter, and at the same time, he was drawn too much attention by Leonardo. So I never made up my mind.

But now, since there is water coming to look for it. Myself... This means that I have reached the brink of death. Thirty pounds bought my life. value. Wait until next year, who knows if the water head will be used.

"make a deal.

At this point, Du Juanhou responded simply.

Malajiji gave a contented smile.
