Leo knows too many things, and this man doesn''t know how to fear, can''t be frightened, can''t fight, has a high status, can''t kill and kill, and Manda really doesn''t dare to provoke him.
It''s not a big deal to give some money and buy some food, but when Leo finishes calculating the price, it''s really not a small amount.
The disaster in the South caused a sharp rise in food prices. One pound of food transported from other countries to the blue bay costs eight copper coins, and five million pounds of food costs four thousand gold coins, not counting the transportation costs.
Leo knew the concept of 4000 gold coins, but he believed that Manda could take out the money. When he robbed the house, although he didn''t count it in detail, he knew Manda had harvested tens of thousands of gold coins.
Manda was also generous enough. He gave Leo 8000 gold coins. As long as Leo could buy food, he was willing to give more.
"I knew I was right!" Leo was deeply moved. He just wanted to give Manda a hug, but Manda pushed him away.
"First clarify the rules. I pay for the money and you buy the food, but this batch of food has to be controlled by me. You are too easy to sympathize with others. Even 10 million pounds of food will be squandered by you. Moreover, you are not a person who knows how to hide. If you produce so much food out of thin air, it is easy to arouse the suspicion of others."
Leo nodded and said, "I listen to you. First give me a deposit of 1000 gold coins. I''ll go to blue bay and give me the rest of the money when the food is delivered."
"Don''t be cheated."
"Don''t worry, they don''t dare." Leo left Manda''s residence, returned to the cathedral, and lied that he had received the news that someone had seen bucken on the way to blue bay.
I don''t know why. After getting along with Manda for a long time, Leo''s lies became more and more natural. He really cheated the archbishop.
"He wants to leave the Roma road country?" the Archbishop thought for a moment and clenched his teeth. "You can''t let him leave, you can''t let him go to the holy country, you can''t let him talk nonsense to the Pope, you start immediately, and once you find him, you''ll kill him!"
Leo took the opportunity to leave the king''s capital, got a thousand gold coins from Denison and went down to the blue bay with his department.
……
Manda lay on guatel''s special lounge chair, wrapped in a blanket, blowing the afternoon breeze and slowly fell asleep.
Recently, he likes sleeping very much, because in his dream, he saw that the experience bar has been growing. Although the speed is not fast, it is really visible. There are many sources of these experiences.
The biggest part of his experience comes from his theft of the king''s capital, including gold coins, food and population.
Part of it comes from his frustration with bucken. Although the main credit should be attributed to the Government Secretary and the archbishop, he has dealt with bucken for so many days, which has increased his experience by nearly 10%.
The most stable experience comes from the begmia mountain. The lion woman and cherdan are responsible for screening, cherdan is responsible for testing the ability of refugees, and the lion woman is responsible for testing the loyalty of refugees. The ultimate test of loyalty is the belief in Hermes.
Most of these people can''t enter the rank in their life. They don''t have to consider their own God. Becoming a loyal believer of Hermes is an important condition for them to go to the seven star mountain.
After 70% of the experience, Manda woke up again with a smile. Eudora told him that Roxanne had been waiting outside the door for a long time.
The first group of "Ladies" successfully trained. Although there were only 25 people, Manda was very satisfied with rosan''s results.
"This is your reward. I''ll give you two more gold coins. Work hard and keep it up. I''ll recruit more students for you. Those who have no money to eat, are homeless and go astray. No matter what their origin, you will explore their potential."
Luo Shan was silent for a moment and summoned up her courage: "please leave the next work to Eugenie."
Manda frowned. What does that mean? She wants to refuse herself? Does she still want to go back to her old job?
Luo Shan got up, saluted Manda deeply and said, "Sir, I have a request. I want to go to your territory. I want to see the legendary place, which believes in ancient gods, respects life and irrigates happiness with sweat!"
"Do you want to go to seven star mountain?" Manda shrunk her eyes.
Roxanne nodded.
Her eyes were sincere, her expression was firm and her tone was moving. The whole performance was perfect, but Manda didn''t believe a word she said.
From noble Shu Li to wandering in the dust, she has enjoyed a luxurious life and experienced the sadness of the world. Now it''s unrealistic to say that watering happiness with sweat, not to mention that the seven star mountain is not as beautiful as she said.
"Tell me the truth, what''s your purpose of going to Qixing mountain?"
"I want to find my lost self."
Manda gestured to Eudora, "get the whip."
Luo Shan immediately told the truth: "I want to find a good man to marry."
Manda smiled, put the whip on one side and said, "how do you know there are good people in the seven star mountain?"
"I heard your wife say something. If I want to return to the aristocracy, seven star mountain is my only chance."
"Which lady is it?" Manda glared at Eudora. Eudora quickly shook her head and said, "it''s not me!"
"It''s the most beautiful lady! She said that you will eventually become a king and your subordinates will become nobles."
It''s really a lion girl. She likes Roxanne''s temperament. She must have used some special means to get a lot of words from the lion girl''s mouth.
"You have a good eye," Manda nodded. "I hope you''re lucky enough."
……
Manu sent more than 400 refugees. Stanley selected more than 70 strong young men to join the army. The rest were handed over to paviu, a poet and believer of the goddess of harvest. Some were kept as coolies, some as farmers, and the rest to Silva as a factotum.
Stanley sat in the tavern and drank wine leisurely: "with people, money and weapons, the poet found a lot of iron ore, and Manu sent more than 100 craftsmen. What else do you say I need to do? I really have nothing else to do except training the army. Such a day is really wonderful."
Worm tapped his teeth. "That''s why you don''t go out for a month?"
"What''s the use of going out? Last time I ran outside for more than ten days, I got a total of 23 people, half of whom were bought slaves. You laughed at me for half a month because of this. Do you think I forgot?"
"All things are done by Manda. What''s the use of you here?"
"Don''t be so mean. He is a king. We are all ministers. Just do our part."
At dusk, chuyt walked into the tavern and said to Stanley, "my Lord, the girls are coming."
Stanley drank a little too much. He rubbed his eyes, looked at chuyt and said, "what girl? Why are you back?"
"I told you before that Manda was going to hold a draft convention. Did you forget it so soon?"
"Yes, remember," Stanley took out a list and handed it to chuyt. "Call these people over and let them dress decently."
When chuyt left, Stanley said to worm, "go and change your clothes, too."
Worm shook his head and said, "I don''t need women."
"Your name is on it."
"I said, I don''t need it."
Stanley took up his name list and said, "well, give me your girl."
