Even though most of the winter is over, the cold wind is still raging in the autumn forest area. Although there is a certain distance from the dripping water in the winter forest area, no one wants to leave the warm fireplace and blankets; , or those who inherit the blood and consider themselves noble families, this is the case.
However, today is an exception in Hongye City, because today is the day of the twice-monthly market in Hongye City—countless goods belonging to Xialin District will be used in the market in Hongye City today, regardless of the frivolity Warm clothes, food with unique flavors, and even a battery are all things that the residents of Hongye City yearn for.
In particular, when the lord of Hongye City, Miss Evro Dick, who is loved by the residents of Hongye City, opened the "trade channel", the prices of various commodities tended to be reasonable, and they were no longer prohibitive—although Some merchants were very dissatisfied with this approach, but under the strong wrist of the female city lord, they only complained a few words.
As for more
Hongye City, located on the border of Qiulin District, has the unique simplicity of Qiulin District in its folk customs, but because it is close to the border, it has the wisdom of Xialin District people; of course, because of the living environment and annual military service, these people They all have considerable strength; therefore, when encountering those shameless businessmen, these residents will stand up very consciously and solve the trouble for their female city lord.
After all, the kindness and wisdom of this female city lord are worthy of them.
The only hospital for civilians in Hongye City was built a year ago, the commercial street without curfew was built a year and a half ago, and the mandatory military service of four months a year was more than two years ago Military pay - although not much, but compared with the previous "obligation", it is enough to live for a family of three for two months, if you save a little more. No problem even for three months.
Some people may think that it is unfair that four months of military service is only enough for a family of three for two months. However, in Hongye City, the population of each family is not only three or four. It is enough for a father and a son to participate in military service. It is enough to make this family rich, and if there are two sons, it is enough to make people enviable.
because. The benevolent female city lord stipulated that if a family has three or more people to serve in the military, before winter comes, the hostess of the family can go to the city lord's mansion to register and receive a considerable amount of winter expenses—of course, It could be food instead.
In fact, the hostess of every family will choose the latter.
Their consciousness is very simple. Food is edible, but coins are nothing more than metal and paper in the winter when food is scarce.
Participating in military service is almost the dream of every boy of age in Hongye City.
Apart from being able to support their families, it was more of a glory, when they watched the soldiers who were injured on the battlefield being helped back to Hongye City, and entered the City Lord's Mansion amidst the cheers of the crowd to be summoned by the female City Lord. And all the taxes of the whole family were exempted, and even when they were supported by the city lord's mansion, these boys felt the meaning of heroes.
The respectful eyes are those half-grown children who have just understood what dignity is and they have been tirelessly pursuing it.
Therefore, in the past two years, the number of soldiers serving in Hongye City has been erupting at a frantic pace.
From the original number of about two thousand, it has reached more than eight thousand at the moment. If the professional soldiers in the early 1000s are included, the number of soldiers in Hongye City has reached 10,000 at this moment, and this number is not inferior even compared to some families in the middle of Qiulin District.
What's even more impressive is the combat effectiveness of these soldiers.
When Efro Dick threw in a large sum of Kimpton, these well-fed, clothed and grateful soldiers. There will always be a strong fighting force.
Those families who coveted the wealth of Hongye City rolled back to their territory in disgrace.
It took Ephrod Dick more than two years to develop from a small town on the border that was not watched by people, or even bullied by others, to a pivotal transportation hub that now occupies the exit of Qiulin District and is supported by soldiers and self-respect. In less than three years, such changes have brought Efro Dick's reputation to a level that her father and ancestors never had.
The first thing the residents of Hongye City do after waking up every day is to bless the female city lord.
The cuteness in the simplicity refers to the residents of Hongye City.
As another family in Red Leaf City other than the Dick family, the Thor family is also appreciated by the people. The bravery of young Thor and the generosity of old Thor are all talked about by everyone, especially those who fought on the battlefield. The civilian soldiers who were rescued by the young Thor and the patients who were given clothes and medicine by the old Thor were all deeply remembered by the residents of Hongye City.
No impetuous, flashy, in fact, more people understand gratitude.
"Lord Thor!"
When little Thor walked through the market, the commoners bowed respectfully, and little Thor returned the salute honestly—although some elders of the Thor family thought it was very disrespectful, but little Thor did not. It was enough to ignore those hamster-like guys, his father supported him, and he liked it.
With a guard of twenty people behind him, Little Thor patrolled the entire market.
Although the entire Hongye City is thriving, some bad things will always happen—the spies of various families, those foreign speculators, all cause the residents of Hongye City to suffer unreasonable losses, and the same, also make the people who are Little Thor, the captain of the Red Leaf City Guard, was shocked.
Because, he always felt that it was his dereliction of duty that caused the residents of Hongye City to suffer losses.
As a simple and honest person, Little Thor is a very typical example. If you respect and love him, he is willing to help you.
Therefore, even if there is no order from the female city lord, every time the market is held, Little Thor will always bring his own guards to the market to maintain order, and behind Little Thor, the servants carefully trained by Old Thor , of course there will be no slightest objection, they will only obey the order.
In a small three-story building next to the market—this is a jewelry store, the first floor is a shop, and the second and third floors are the owner of the shop.
However, the owner of the shop in this hand was standing on the side with his head bowed respectfully, while on that chair, Old Thor was looking at his son who was carefully patrolling below with a smile. Just glanced at it. I won't say anything more.
In fact, as one of the back roads left by old Thor for his son, the owner of the shop naturally has the same status as the servants who followed behind young Thor; however, judging from now, The owner of the shop thought that he might not be able to play much role.
The only role it can play is to provide a room for the patriarch to watch when his young master goes on patrol.
"Jack. How is Little Thor doing?"
Old Thor asked suddenly.
"Master worked hard!"
The owner of the shop replied like this—in fact, he didn't have much to answer except for this answer; after all, he had just glanced at it before and found several malicious guys in the crowd.
Undoubtedly, the only thing Thor with his guards can prevent is those petty thieves. Those who really have a special purpose cannot achieve the preventive effect; the only thing he can see in his eyes is the meticulous actions of the young master of his own family.
However, some things require talent.
In family wars, charge forward, and the young master of one's own family is like a banner, which is enough to boost the morale of one's own side. The enemy's liver and gallbladder are torn, but this kind of meticulous work like a spy is obviously inappropriate.
"I don't think the young master is suitable for such a job... a long sword, no matter what, it can't be embroidered on silk!"
The owner of the shop truthfully expressed his feelings.
"Yeah, how does the long sword embroider?"
Old Thor shook his head slightly, and the smile on his face didn't decrease in the slightest—for the young Thor at this moment, Old Thor was already extremely satisfied, a waste and a fool in the eyes of others. In just two years, he experienced 70 battles, big and small, wounded and dying, but in the end he survived, his strength increased steadily, and he was only one step away from the Sunyao class. Such a son, Lao Tuo I am very satisfied.
It's the same even if Little Thor is still honest and straightforward.
Thanks to that one!
The inexplicable old Thor thought of the female castellan who discovered her son's talent. He remembered the other party's kindness in his heart, so he did his best to help the other party control the entire Hongye City.
Of course, there is another one!
Thinking of the famous Your Excellency. Old Thor couldn't help feeling a lot of emotions—although he expected the other party to be extraordinary, he didn't expect the other party to reach such a height. The title of the Seventh Strongest in the World...is too amazing!
However, when he thought that he was standing with such a person, Old Thor let out a sigh of relief.
Those short-sighted fellows!
Thinking of the clowns jumping up and down in the family when he tried his best to help the female city lord, Old Thor couldn't help snorting. These guys not only made things difficult for him, but also made things difficult for his son; at the beginning, he was just simple and honest The honest and upright son was called a fool in the mouths of these people.
Don't they think they don't know what their thoughts are
The Thor family…
Even if I die, I will leave it to my son!
Old Thor clenched the palms that were tucked into his sleeves, but his gaze towards his hard-working and serious son became softer and softer.
Until the sound of footsteps interrupts—
Step, step, step...
Several heavy or light footsteps sounded, making Old Thor frowned, and looked at the shop owner in front of him with displeasure.
He had ordered that no one should disturb him at this time.
The owner of the shop, under the eyes of Old Thor, walked straight to the stairs, his face was also gloomy, even when he thought he needed to gesture to his fellows who couldn't understand the order, he saw clearly The person who came, suddenly, the owner of the shop smiled wryly.
"Miss Elaro..."
"I want to see old Thor, get out of the way!"
The second lady of the Dick family walked up to the third floor with her two loyal subordinates, pushed away the owner of the shop, and went up.
As for the shop owner who wanted to say something, Gray and Anlilore held his arms—
"Hey, our boss, I don't mean anything malicious, I'm just here to ask questions!"
Gray explained.
"Shut up, come down with me!"
Anglilore held the other party's shoulders, and walked down as if carrying a little chicken, and then. Standing together with Gray on the stairs from the second floor to the third floor, preventing anyone from approaching.
"Ellaro, you..."
When his subordinates were taken away, Old Thor saw Elaro Dick, and immediately felt a headache—if Evro Dick surprised him, Elaro Dick also surprised him. He was surprised, even more surprised than the former.
only. The direction of this astonishment is diametrically opposite—I have endless admiration for Evro Dick, that kind of mind, overall situation, and skill, even a man can't do it; as for Elaro Dick? They are obviously sisters, why is there such a distance between them... They are like children who can't grow up, causing trouble everywhere.
The residents of Hongye City are full of resentment towards the second lady of the Dick family. If it weren't for the love for Efro Dick, there would have been protests and the like.
"Uncle Thor, I'm here to ask you a question—who exactly is Faith Dick?"
Elaro Dick stared at the old Thor in front of him and asked word by word.
"What, what?"
The old Thor who was caught off guard was startled, and his face changed slightly; however, the old Thor who reacted instantly said, "Of course Faith Dick is a genius of your Dick family, and he should still be looking for it in the Thousand Swamp District. Some magical creature? Hope he gets something this time..."
Elaro Dick. Just looking at old Thor like this made the latter's voice lower and lower.
"I once sent people to search for Feiss Dick in the Thousand Marsh District, but they didn't find any results. Even... even the locals in the Thousand Marsh District have never heard of this person; however, I got a very interesting phenomenon. Feiss Dick will always have a package sent to Hongye City every one or two months, but the delivery address is Qianmao District!"
Elaro Dick spoke word by word. Old Thor could only smile wryly—he knew that he might not be able to hide it, and the lady in front of him was definitely prepared; however, even if he had a premonition that it was impossible to hide it, Old Thor would not be so frank; after all , This can be regarded as a top secret of the top management of Hongye City.
Only he, Evro Dick and the old butler knew.
"This, this, I think you should ask Lord Santo or Steward Dick, I..."
"If possible. I will definitely ask my sister and the housekeeper, but I can't deal with them ruthlessly, but you are different!"
Old Thor who was interrupted again. Can't help but choke—although he agrees with the saying that it hurts others but not others, but he will never let others use it on him!
Therefore, Old Thor's face darkened, and he wanted to scold Elaro Dick—this is not too much, even if Ephrod Dick came, he couldn't complain.
However, before he could yell, Elaro Dick disappeared in front of him, and a thin dagger appeared from the void and was placed on his neck. At the same time, Elaro Dick The voice came again: "In order to prove that I am not arrogant, I will give you a demonstration in person!"
After the words fell, the dagger disappeared without a trace, and Elaro Dick also appeared in its original position.
"You, you have entered Riyao!"
Old Thor looked at the second daughter of the Dick family in amazement, his fingers trembling slightly as he pointed at her—although it was only for a moment, he would definitely not perceive the solar-level aura by mistake.
"With that guy... my strength is growing rapidly—although at first I thought I had entered a period of strength explosion, but later when I read the family's secret book, I found some interesting records... it is Because of these records, I can conclude that Faith Dick has long since ceased to exist! That guy is just an imposter!"
Elaro Dick said with certainty.
"Miss Elaro, you actually know, why do you still press me? I promised the Lord City Lord that you can't say it!"
Old Thor looked at the second daughter of the Dick family in front of him, and said helplessly—the Dick family really has strong luck, the elder sister has the talent for management, and the younger sister has the talent for being strong. It is difficult for such a family to rise up! Moreover, with the addition of that... the slightest such rise is already a certainty!
However, it will only be safer for Little Thor to follow behind them!
The thoughts in Old Thor's mind turned around a few times, and then he corrected his attitude—"begging for mercy" as a subordinate.
Sure enough, facing the elder sister who was carried out, this Alaro Dick hesitated, but obviously did not give up—
"I'm just a name, you just need to tell me if it is or not..."
Elaro Dick said this, and before old Thor could answer, he suddenly said a name.
"Yeqi!"
"!!"
Old Thor was startled, and looked at the second lady of the Dick family in front of him in surprise.
"Very well, now you don't even need an answer!"
Seeing Old Thor's expression, Elaro Dick, who already knew everything, nodded with a smile, turned around and walked downstairs, leaving behind Old Thor with a wry smile.
Sure enough, the girls in the Dick family are all ghosts and elves!
With such an exclamation, Old Thor just wanted to sit down, but the sudden sound of horseshoes made him stand up instantly, and looked towards the direction of the city gate where there was a road formed by thousands of horses. The black line is getting closer and clearer!
In an instant, Old Thor jumped out.
