The Barrage Said, I Am the Final Villain In the Game

  Chapter 203 will not tax the tax until after nine hundred years, right?

  Cond's Tavern is the only tavern in Lorraine.

  Perhaps it is the reason why border merchants often choose Lorraine Town as their foothold. Its decoration is surprisingly good, and it does not have the dilapidated appearance of other buildings around it.

   When Lynn and Alyssa came to the door, someone greeted them immediately.

   "Hey, you are Master Hogg."

  The person who came was a middle-aged man, his figure was out of shape, and there was only a slit in his eyes when he smiled.

"I saw you from a distance. I wondered why there is such a handsome young man in our town. When I suddenly thought of the guests I'm going to receive today, I immediately understood." The middle-aged man held Lin En in his arms without showing any emotion. By the way, he introduced himself, "Callum Barron, the owner of this tavern."

  Lin En nodded with a smile, and took out two gold coins from his pocket.

  Mr. Baron was flattered and put the gold coin back into his pocket. While cursing the guy inside for having a wallet but being stingy and refusing to spend it, he covered the only gap left on his face with a smile.

   "Come, this way please."

  The boss opened the door of the tavern and invited the young businessman in.

   While stepping over the threshold, Lynn looked around without leaving a trace.

  The structure of the tavern is still the same as that of an ordinary tavern, with various portraits of heroes hanging on the walls, and tables, chairs and benches everywhere, but the difference is that the lighting is not as dim as ordinary taverns, presumably because of the request of the charterer.

   Apart from this, the rest is noisy discussion.

   "Hey, where do you think the guest came from, to let that fellow Hayes take over the tavern with a hemorrhage, and let the team rest here for a few more days extravagantly?"

   "As far as I know, he seems to be receiving a businessman from Landi."

   "Blue land merchant, is there anything unusual?"

   "Ordinary businessmen are nothing unusual, but the place where they do business seems to be in Roxos."

   "Is it the capital of the kingdom? Tsk, then this place is still not high enough."

   "It's really not enough, and I heard that the one who came is still a young master. I guess I will have to dislike this one and that one again."

   "The merchants in the royal capital are masters. They might buy a noble title one day. We little **** really don't like it."

"Hahaha-"

  Everyone laughed.

  At this time, someone glimpsed from the corner of their eyes the plainly dressed boy who looked exactly like them in the same style of painting as they were standing beside them, listening to their conversation with great interest.

  So that person couldn't laugh anymore.

   Then everyone stopped laughing.

   Except Lynn.

   Lynn pulled out a chair and sat down, beckoning to Alyssa to bring over the bubbling beer from the bar.

   Then he held the handle of the beer glass and lightly touched the person beside him who was about to put the beer into his mouth but froze silently.

   "I think what you say makes sense." He took a sip of beer, showing a disgusted expression, "Well, it's really bad."

  He put down his beer glass, paused, and said, "It's time for me to dislike you now, but before that."

   "Can someone teach me where I can buy a title of nobility." He seemed to be saying it seriously.

   "Pfft—" Someone couldn't help laughing.

  The embarrassing atmosphere was swept away, and the atmosphere among the crowd returned to what it was just now.

  The man next to Lynn who was forced to clink glasses with him raised his glass this time.

   "Mr. Hogg, you are really humorous." He laughed and praised the boy.

  Lin En said with a straight face: "Humor should be an essential quality of an excellent businessman."

  When everyone saw his incongruity, they laughed even more happily.

  Young master, it's amazing. Alyssa behind her and No. 2 in the corner looked at each other, and the eyes of both of them were very similar accidents.

  They all know that their young master is very capable, but no matter what, he is still a person who has experienced aristocratic education for more than ten years.

  In the education system of nobles, lineage is very important, and it is impossible for Lynn not to be affected.

Originally, they thought that Lynn would not be able to adapt to the change of status due to falling from a height for at least a while, so Alyssa chose to act as a lover who is not beautiful but gentle and understands the general situation, so as to communicate with her later. assist him in excessive.

   But they never expected that Lynn's change was so smooth that the actors in the Catalina Theater did not become more natural than him.

  They settled down and their expressions relaxed a lot.

   "Brother."

  After a few glasses of wine, Mr. Hogg has become Hogg's younger brother.

  The man who first clinked glasses with him put his arms around Hogg's shoulders affectionately, and said drunkenly: "I have a daughter, an only daughter, should I introduce you to her?"

   "In this way, our two powerful alliances will surely lead to prosperity in the future."

  It's going well without you.

  Lin En took off the hand he put on her without leaving a trace, and said with a smile: "Sorry, my family has already arranged a marriage for me."

   "It's okay." The man said indifferently, "Domestic flowers have no scent of wild flowers. Men are born yearning for nature."

  Lin En blinked, and his fingers trembled inadvertently.

  The man took his performance as an emotion, and just about to speak, a white palm suddenly appeared behind Lin En, refilling the beer for him.

  The man discovered that the black-haired woman was not a waiter in the tavern.

   Lynn spread his hands.

"Hahaha-"

  The man smiled awkwardly, touched his nose with his hand, and the light in his cloudy eyes disappeared.

   "Pa-ta-"

  The sound of the door being pushed open came from the door again.

  The voice was a bit loud this time, and it immediately attracted everyone's attention.

   It was a bloated middle-aged man, followed by a young man who was slightly older than Lynn.

  The middle-aged man had gemstone rings on six of his ten fingers, and the boy was wearing a pair of leather shoes from a luxury store on Silver Avenue.

   "Mr. Hayes."

   Someone raised a wine glass to the man, and the man responded with a half-smile.

  He didn't ask for a glass of beer from the bar, and went directly to where Lynn was, but didn't sit down.

   "Master Hogg?" He looked at Lynn uncertainly.

   Lynn got up, smiled and extended his hand to him: "Nice to meet you, Mr. Hayes."

   "Me too." Hayes' smile became more real.

  He turned his head and introduced the young man beside him to Lynn: "This is my nephew and my assistant, and he is now learning business knowledge by my side."

   Lynn nodded, but did not introduce Alyssa to him as well.

  Then the smile of the businessman Hayes became even brighter.

  Although he didn't know the specific information about Hogg's family, at least this behavior was subconsciously made after learning a lot of noble etiquette.

  Qualified nobles will ensure the safety of their female relatives outside, and will not introduce them to dubious people like them.

  Lin En's actions, coupled with his purpose of coming here, show that their family is definitely infinitely close to a real noble.

   "Come here, please." Hayes tried to take Lynn away from this position.

  Lin En nodded slightly, raised his glass to everyone, and everyone responded with a toast, smiling happily.

   This made Hayes a little dissatisfied.

  How could nobles talk so eagerly with such inferior businessmen?

  Lyn didn't pay attention to Hayes' thoughts, and followed him and his nephew to a small room, while Alyssa stayed outside.

  After sitting down, Hayes rubbed his gemstone ring and asked him eagerly if he needed some more beer. Lynn said no, tea would be fine.

  Heyz immediately agreed, and urged his nephew to get it as soon as he was afraid that he would regret it.

  After the tea came, Hayes took out a small box from nowhere, and opened it to see that it was a cigar in good condition.

   "Smoking?" he asked.

   Lynn still refuses.

  Heyz happily put the cigars back into the bag, and Lynn saw that there were cigars inside, but the quality was not good, and it just looked a little damp.

   The courtesy was over, and Lynn didn't want to make another turn.

   "Sir." Lynn asked, "I want something, have you brought it?"

   "Bring it." Hayes nodded earnestly, but made no other moves.

"Where?"

  Heyz pointed to his head: "Here."

   "However." He paused before continuing, "Only the three towns of Lorraine, Marienburg's information is too difficult to get, we are only allowed to pass quickly, not even allowed to stay."

  When he said this, the remaining two people in the room froze for a moment.

   Actually want to get Marienburg?

Lynn looked at Hayes in surprise. Hayz thought that he thought he was capable enough to collect the detailed information of three towns in a short time, so he smiled brightly as if he was encouraged, but in fact Lynn was just Look at the shadow behind him.

   This is part of the plan.

  No. 2 revealed the meaning cryptically.

  It confuses the eyes, I understand.

  Lin En nodded knowingly, and then looked at Hayes who was about to draw out a pen and paper to write something.

   "Why didn't you record it directly." He asked suspiciously.

   "For the sake of confidentiality." Hayes said naturally, "It would be bad if someone found out after writing it down. Don't worry, my memory is very good, and I won't forget it."

  “.”

  Lin En silently sighed that they didn't really want military information.

   Otherwise, this kind of smart behavior will only lead to silence.

  Heyz obviously didn't care about these things, and only wrote while repeating: "Lorraine Town and other three towns can actually be regarded as a town, managed by the Viscount von Loh Eric, and he has a total of .

   "Wait a minute!" Hayes' nephew interrupted Hayes' words.

  He looked at his uncle in disbelief: "Uncle, what are you doing?"

   Hayes paused, looked up at him, frowned and said, "Seth, why are you talking to me?"

  The boy called Seth didn't bother to maintain the hypocritical etiquette, and seriously repeated what he said just now: "Uncle, what are you doing?"

"Deal." Hayes was a little puzzled by this question, seeing the smile on Lynn's face getting thicker, his face turned cold, "Seth, if you really don't want to learn from me, get out of here! "

  The businessman tried to save some face from this sudden farce by using the majesty of his elders, but Seth was not frightened.

  He strode forward, and under his uncle's astonished eyes, tore off the piece of paper.

   "Do you know what you are doing?" He glared at Hayes angrily, "You are betraying your country!"

  His anger and the big hat he put on did not change Hayes' panic, and Hayes even admitted it without hesitation.

   "That's right, I'm betraying the country." His face was full of puzzlement, "A businessman betraying the country, what's the problem?"

   Seth was taken aback by his natural look.

  Businessmen, in history, are representatives who are desperate for their own interests. It seems that traitorousness is indeed a normal thing that can no longer be normal.

   "No, it's not right." Seth argued, "Even if it's for profit, you can't sell your country."

   "This is not a businessman, this is a thief, a traitor!"

   "Seth Gross!" Hayes read his full name, expressing his anger at Seth's responsibility.

  He pointed to the door: "Get out!"

  Seth shook his head, went straight out the door, and then slammed the door behind him.

"boom-"

  The huge noise shook the table a few times.

  People in the hall turned their heads subconsciously, and what they saw was the picture of the ordinary-looking woman next to Mr. Hogg slapping the angry-faced boy unconscious.

   "Who said you were going to strike up a conversation just now?"

  Two-thirds of the people bowed their heads and drank mulled wine.

  Inside the room.

   "Sorry, sir." Hayes said guiltily, "That kid wasn't originally such a reckless person, but he usually grew up in Cross Town—that's a place a little closer to Catalina."

  Lynn nodded knowingly.

  The Rhine Kingdom is a rare kingdom in the Rhine region that unified most of the region. Nationalism is undoubtedly an excellent choice to promote and consolidate kingship to the people.

   Around the royal capital, this kind of propaganda must be even more intense, and young people who are in their hot-blooded age can easily swear allegiance to the country.

   "Young man." Lynn said with a smile, "I understand."

   "Thank you for your understanding." Hayes smiled flatteringly, secretly slandering you as a young man, and then envious of Lynn's upbringing.

   After slightly rubbing the emerald ring on the other finger, the merchant's mood improved a lot.

  He took out another piece of paper, but did not write.

   "Where did I just say?"

   "He has all the people under him." Lynn continued for him kindly.

"Ooo." The businessman picked up his thoughts and continued, "Viscount Eric usually lives in the town of Rock, and there are twelve knights, forty guards, and some personal soldiers under his command—by the way, The patrol guards he arranged in the town are all trained according to the training standards of soldiers—recently, he seems to be recruiting people around to join his team, and the young and middle-aged people in the surrounding villages have rushed over."

  “.”

  Ling En listened to the businessman's narration, narrowing his eyes slightly.

   It is not easy for this viscount to support twelve knights and forty guards.

  Generally speaking, if a person from an ordinary family wants to develop towards a higher level, there are several options.

  One is to study hard and get admitted to college; the other is to explore by yourself, go out for adventure, and put your head on your belt every day.

  The former needs to consume gold coins, and it is difficult for ordinary people to afford advanced colleges, so the last category usually becomes the latter.

  If you don't want to risk your life, there are ways.

  Go to be a thug for the rich family, sign a contract, and let them help you improve.

Contracts generally start at twenty years. If signed, it means that at least one-fifth of this person’s life will be tied to this family, unless his family’s fortunes fall and he voluntarily severes the contract—but the most common phenomenon is family fortunes. Luo also had to look at others honestly.

  Of course, after signing the contract, Party A will definitely train Party B.

   And this represents a lot of effort.

Lin En vaguely remembered that there were statistics that nobles wanted to train a qualified thug, that is, a first-tier fighter whose strength was at least two-thirds of the silver star ring, and it would cost at least more than 130,000 gold coins. If it was a knight, You need to double it.

  Mages get three times more, alchemists get ten times more, healers are random, assassins and so on. Just pray not to be discovered.

   Among them, warriors and knights are the two most cost-effective choices, magicians are the worst choice, alchemists rely on luck, and healers rely on kidneys.

   But even if it is the two most cost-effective, if you want to cultivate fifty-two, you will need at least more than eight million gold coins.

  Due to the repetition produced by the superposition of homogeneous numbers of people, this number may be slightly less, but it is unlikely to be less than five million.

   Coupled with the cost of training soldiers, Lynn couldn't help but feel emotional.

   "It seems that ninety years is still less."

   "The taxes of these three towns should have been received nine hundred years later."
