Chapter 16 The Gap in the Opening

Moreover, he had to pay three hundred dinars first, which made any mercenary team that wanted to recruit him unhappy.

It is precisely because of this that Alleyn's savings have been spent bit by bit, and now he will face the dilemma of starving to death if he does not find a job.

Asking him to do odd jobs, how is this possible? He is a noble, how can he do things that common people do, so he carries the arrogance of a noble but does not enjoy the treatment of a noble.

"Actually, these three hundred dinars can be paid later. It doesn't matter if you can't take it out now.

As long as you come up with three hundred dinars within a month, it will be fine, but you still have to pay me my weekly salary as usual.

In this case, it's not impossible." Alleyn lowered his head for the first time, temporarily letting go of his noble arrogance.

Now he has to do this in order to survive. If he doesn't agree anymore, then Alleyn will probably starve to death.

Walls looked at his dress. As a declining aristocrat, he could understand his feelings. The only difference was that Walls had been accustomed to living like a commoner since he was a child. Therefore, his aristocratic arrogance was not as arrogant as Ai's.

Ren is so serious.

"Okay, then it's a deal." Maybe it was because they were both nobles, or maybe Walls took a fancy to Alleyne's talent. Anyway, Walls agreed to Alleyne.

But just because Walls made such a decision, he gained a loyal general in the future.

"In that case, can I go have a meal with your subordinates?"

Alleyn said, and then in order to cover up his difficulty, he continued: "This can enhance some feelings with your subordinates, right?"

Walls smiled knowingly and nodded.

Walls knew that Alleyne hadn't eaten for a long time.

Owens really couldn't figure out why he would spend a lot of money to invite an aristocratic gentleman to have a meal with him.

But Walls had just invited him to dinner, and he couldn't say anything. He just ate his own food. The other Nord recruits saw that Owens didn't say anything, so they didn't say much.

Also follow Owens' example.

Seeing this scene, Walls secretly breathed a sigh of relief. He was worried that there would be a conflict between Alleyne and these Nord recruits, if such a situation happened.

Russell looked at this scene and muttered: "Humph, his Owens is not as kind as me at all! My Owens is a real good brother."

[System prompt: Okay, brother, are you tired?]

Well, Walls will still be quite troublesome, but it is still very happy to see Alleyn put down his pride and not cause trouble.

Although he has not found a veteran to join his team, it is good for him to invite a young noble to join his team. Moreover, this noble is also an expert with swords.

Ever since, Walls has started to worry about one thing again: money!

Without money, Walls would starve to death. Almost everyone on the continent was worried about money. Those lords started wars largely because of money.

Although Walls only had 500 dinars on him at this time, it was still far from enough.

He came here to seek a way out not just for the five hundred dinars. This was not his goal. Before his death, his father had told him to regain his family if he had the chance.

He is still not strong enough now. If he wants to regain his family, he needs to obtain a fief, and to obtain a fief, you need to be loyal to the king.

However, the king will not make a loss-making business. He will only grant a warrior a fief and let the warrior expand his territory for himself in order to obtain more benefits.

Of course, most of the time, this transaction is what most people are willing to do. It is a dream for commoners to become nobles, right?

What Walls did was to get the king to recognize him, so before that he needed to gain some fame.

Defeating some large bandit groups or becoming a mercenary to fight for the king can make you famous. This also means that you have the opportunity to be recognized by the king and give you a chance to obtain a fief.

Judging from the current situation, hunting bandits is one thing that can be done now. The equipment of bandits is not as good as that of the regular army.

The difficulty of destroying them is lower than that of the regular army.

If you want to be the king's mercenary, you need a regular army, and building such an army requires a lot of money. Therefore, hunting bandits is now the most profitable.

Now that the target has been set, it is time to start looking for the robbers. There will be many wanted robber posters posted on the walls of the tavern.

When someone, or a group of people, kills the bandit leader listed on the wanted order, they will receive a bounty, and the amount of the bounty is determined by the person who issued the wanted order.

And it is this person who pays the bounty. Generally, the person who issues the wanted notice is the mayor of the town.

The mayor manages town affairs for the lords, and those lords usually don't care about things. They will use their extra time to do things they like. Of course, the lords will firmly hold the leadership of the army.

Caught in hand.

Therefore, the burden of managing the town's affairs falls on the shoulders of the mayor. Judging from the wanted notice on the tavern, the mayor of Sargos seems to have a headache.

The walls were covered with numerous wanted notices, enough to show the number of robbers nearby.

The number of these bandit groups can reach hundreds of people. Ordinary small lords cannot defeat this type of bandits. The smaller ones can have dozens of people. This kind of bandit group is the prey of various bounty hunters.

And now Walls saw a good prey.

The Ranger Bandit Group, with a bounty of 200 dinars. A bandit group that haunts the borders of Korau and Sargos. There are about twenty members in the bandit group.

Walls smiled when he saw this wanted poster. Now he needs a bandit of this level, and it happens to be on his trade route. How could it not make him happy?

But Walls did not look away immediately, but patiently read all the wanted posters.

He needs to learn about the bandits that often appear on his trade routes so that he can think of countermeasures.

After a long time, Walls, who was deep in thought, finally came to his senses. He counted and found that there were no more than ten bandit groups on the trade route he had set.

These bandit groups range from large to small. The large bandit group has as many as a hundred people, but the small bandit group is just like the Ranger bandit group, with only a few dozen people.

The baron only thought it was funny and became sinister: "I'm talking about the system. You said that this poor boy has to rely on robbing bandits to make a living. Isn't it a bit bad? How could the lottery king like this kind of thing?"

[System prompt: You are not allowed to say that my family has a problem with the king's vision. Besides, you have also done robbing and robberies!]

It seems to make sense. It takes fifty steps to laugh at a hundred steps, hmm...

In any case, in order to survive and get rich quickly, many people take desperate risks to go into business, and Walls must do the same, otherwise he really can't think of any safe and reliable way to get enough money.

Being a mercenary or a bounty hunter requires a certain amount of military strength. To put it simply, it requires an elite army, and building and supporting an elite army requires a lot of money.

In this case, you first need to do business to get rich quickly.

Walls, who had decided on his development goals, turned around. Now he was ready to have a full meal. After all, he had to fill his stomach first before talking.

He plans to leave for Wocheze tomorrow.

"Guys, we are going on the road tomorrow. You can eat better today." Walls sat on a chair and shouted to his companions unceremoniously.

"Got it, head," Owens yelled first, with sauce still stuck to his mouth.

"Okay sir, I hope you will return my money to me as soon as possible." Alleyn put down the fork in his hand and said.

This sentence was despised by everyone. Owens and other recruits looked down upon this declining nobleman. He was a poor man.

Walls soon saw the faces of his new recruits, and he quickly came out to mediate.

"Don't have conflicts, we will be partners fighting side by side in the future."

Out of concern for Walls, Owens didn't take it seriously, so they acted as if they didn't hear it.

Seeing this situation, Alleyn was sensible and didn't say much, but it could still be seen that he still maintained the arrogance of a noble.

As for the discord within his team, Walls can only slowly improve it by getting along day and night.

Walls secretly estimated that with his own ability, he could maintain a team size of about 50 people.

If there are more than 50 people, he may not have enough energy to mediate these conflicts.

"What a poor guy. At most, I had nearly 100 brothers. I never saw them quarreling. They all called me their noble master."

At this time, Russell laughed at Walls again.

[System prompt: But he is married to a gambling king, what about you? 】

Why, it's not me who's jealous, I have Safiya, what about your system?

[System prompt: Very good, please continue the game.]

In this case, they will leave you halfway, and if you want to increase the size of your army, you will have to improve your capabilities.

Of course, the way Walls improves his abilities is different from that of the Baron. He cannot rely on a shameless system to increase his ability to rule.

Only by relying on your own accumulated training over time can you have a small chance of becoming stronger.

There was a very big gap between the two at the beginning. The Baron did not suffer any hardships. He became the Lord of the town Uxhall and quickly obtained the help of the Dragon Clan.
