Manda is not a very patient person, but in order to get rid of the current dilemma, he had a patient long talk with the old lord. Through this long talk, he found some amazing secrets, which made Manda realize that some things have lost room for maneuver.
Lord Petros is a wise man, but it does not mean that a wise man will not make mistakes. He is not a noble. More than 40 years ago, he came to Tieshan town as a businessman and won the trust of the LORD with his excellent ability. At that time, the LORD was the father of viscount Sorens, that is, Lord Lao Tzu often mentioned by Petros.
Pedros is eager to become a noble, and also knows the rules of survival. He can exchange money or life for important things. He chose to exchange the two together.
He first accumulated enough capital with his excellent business talent, and then risked his life to steal the salt business from the giant mirole. The most important thing is that he is not greedy. As long as he earns at least half of his money belongs to Laozi Lord. As long as he is a businessman who dares to offend the Viscount, he will be subjected to economic sanctions and military attack by Pedros.
Pedros''s loyalty moved Lao Tzu. Under his recommendation, Pedros sent a bribe to count pinkley. With pinkley''s recommendation, Pedros finally got the title.
After becoming a lord, he married Lord Lao Tzu''s most loyal vassal, the claudesai family. When Lugang claudesai married his daughter Atia, he believed that no one in Tieshan town could shake his position.
Unfortunately, no one reminded him that times will change.
Lord Lao Tze died 13 years ago. The new Viscount took control of Tieshan town. He was not so friendly to the old stories of Lord Lao Tze.
Looking at the big figures in Tieshan Town, we can see that Baron Annon won the title five years ago by virtue of his meritorious service, and Baron Madsen bought the title seven years ago. Although the old lord tried his best to avoid some problems, the fact has been put in front of him. Among the three barons in Tieshan Town, only the claudesai family was left in the former dynasty.
In the past 13 years, in the face of sorense''s endless difficulties, Claude Sai and Pedros have retreated in every way, because the old lord still believes that he can impress Lord Lao Tze''s son again in the same way.
But Manda doesn''t believe that it''s a wishful dream to impress a person who hates you with loyalty. He died like this in his previous life, so he let ghost take away all his loyalty.
Pedros sighed: "you''re right. I''ll contribute two more iron mines to Lord viscount and two manors. Maybe this thing will end here."
"I take back what I thought before. I''m afraid it won''t end," Manda shook her head. "Save the life of the punisher first, or you''ll only have to die."
Since sorense has hurt the killer, he will not leave any chance to ease. Leave your mine and manor. Leave these things to me.
The next evening, sangira brought bad news. The old witch identified the composition of the poison, which was a poisonous herb called and price, but she had no way to detoxify it. The situation of the punishers is getting worse. Pluto can''t help them survive tonight.
There are only two ways in front of Manda. The first way is to find sorense to explain the reason, bow his head and quit the fight.
This is obviously futile. Like Pedro''s situation, sorense will not leave him a chance to quit since he has involved Manda, otherwise who will he ask to carry the pot?
The second way is to turn over with the viscount and fight for a dead net.
Not to mention whether Manda can beat sorense, even if she really wins, it is an unforgivable crime to assassinate a local Lord. Either run to the deep mountains to be a bandit or return to the valley to be a monster. These are not the results Manda wants.
In desperation, Manda placed her hope on the messenger of the gods and found a relatively secret room. Manda summoned the old goat.
Manda hasn''t traded with the old goat for a long time. Thinking of his previous attitude, Manda really doesn''t dare to have much hope.
But tonight, the old goat''s attitude has changed.
"Distinguished guest, long time no see." in the thick fog, the old goat appeared and saluted Manda first, which made Manda tremble.
What is this? Is something good happening?
Or does this guy know I''m rich and want to blackmail me?
Manda gave the poisoned food to the old goat. The old goat smelled it and said with a smile, "the bread is good, and the meat is no problem. As for the thick soup... And Presley, which can make people crazy, it seems that you have met a cruel man. Do you want me to detoxify you?"
Manda nodded like a chicken pecking rice.
"A hundred gold coins."
Without hesitation, Manda counted a hundred gold coins. The old goat took out two bags of medicine powder and handed it to Manda.
"If you drink the red powder mixed with wine, you can wake up that day. If you drink the white powder mixed with ale, you can walk after three days."
Manda pursed her lips and said, "is this a person''s weight? No prescription or something?"
"Tut tut tut!" the old goat smacked his lips. "And Presley is one of the most amazing poisons in the world. You want to buy a prescription for a hundred gold coins. Are you too greedy? And I asked for this prescription from a big man. I can''t sell the prescription to anyone without his permission."
Him? So this prescription comes from the gods? Manda dared not ask again, but he still had three people to save (zileiro didn''t need powder).
"Well, take another 300 gold coins." the old goat had a bright smile on his face. Although Manda had more than 20000 gold coins in his hand, you still felt a little pain when you asked him to take out 400 gold coins to save the punisher.
Not to save the punisher, but to save myself! Manda clenched her teeth and counted another 300 gold coins and gave them to the old goat.
He handed the powder to Manda. The old goat sighed: "in one year, he has risen from blind duck to third level. Do you know how many people can''t see the shadow of third level in their life? And how many people can''t find the door to enter the level in their life?"
Manda said piously, "thank the gods for their care and protection."
"Do you want to know how to get promoted to level 4?"
Manda quickly sat up straight and continued to nod like a chicken eating rice.
It''s strange. Why is the old goat so active today? The last time we met, he was too lazy to say a word.
Because there is an insurmountable bottleneck between the third and fourth orders, there is a cliff like gap in the number of believers between the fourth and third orders. According to Kunta, almost one third-order believer can be found among 10000 or 20000 people, which is often said to be one in a million.
However, a fourth rank may not be found among hundreds of thousands of people. If Manda successfully completes the promotion, he will get rid of the identity of ordinary people and truly become a rare existence.
According to Manda''s estimation, the promotion method of becoming a fourth-order believer may sell 3000 gold coins, and the price of the sacrifice will not be less than 3000 gold coins. Manda still feels flustered and trembling with his financial resources, not to mention ordinary people. No wonder there are so few believers of the LORD God, and the road to promotion is always shrouded in the cloud of losing his family and property.
Money must be spent. Nothing is more important than promotion, but what Manda didn''t expect is that money can''t buy it.
"I don''t have a promotion method in my hand. I doubt there may be no such method in the world. You may be his first fourth order believer."
"What should I do?" Manda didn''t understand what the old goat meant. Since there was no way to upgrade, why did she say it to seduce Manda?
"You can exchange your meritorious deeds," the old goat whispered, "to three God punished warriors to believe in our God, to sincerely believe, there can be no perfunctory, let alone deception."
