Chapter 141(1/2)

The mist rises and the aroma of meat is everywhere.

"Haha, OK!" David cheered and sprinkled a handful of red powder into the pot.

In the cold season, there is nothing more enjoyable than having a hot and spicy hot pot. Since Joshia promoted this method, the station immediately started to eat hot pot. However, the supplies of the gray-clothed army were really limited, and auxiliary vegetables could be replaced by wild vegetables, but meat slices were difficult to deal with.

This is also the reason why David and his friends immediately had bad thoughts when they saw the horses in front of the station. As for why they had to choose Philip's carriage, it was because they had eaten this breed before, so they started without hesitation when they looked familiar.

"Well, huh, it's just this taste, it's delicious, huh... This horse meat is really good!" David swallowed the hot slices while commenting.

"Yeah, after we finish eating, let's touch it and drag the remaining few horses over." Harry kept nodding, then his eyes turned and made a suggestion.

"Haha, you can consider this!"

“Strongly agree!”

...

Tang En stroked his forehead aside. Why did he feel like he had cultivated a bunch of thieves now...

"Wow, this smell... is very fragrant."

Hum? Everyone was eating horse meat with big mouthfuls turned their heads and saw a young man in high clothing twitching his nose and walking towards them.

Noble? Now the gray-clothed army is wearing this outfit, which is definitely the aristocrats who come to negotiate.

"Hi, everyone, my name is Philip!" Ji Lai Kuai briefly introduced, Philip's eyes kept staring at the rolling red soup, "What is this? It looks delicious!"

Tang En touched his nose: "This is hot pot."

"Hotpot? I haven't heard of it, but the name is quite appropriate." After saying that, Philip sat casually on the land beside Tang En, regardless of his luxurious clothes.

"Well, where is the knife and fork?"

The members of the gray space looked at each other, and David curled his lips: "Why do you want to give it to you?"

"Uh, don't do this, I'm a guest at all!" Philip spread his hands and smiled.

Mishe, who was standing beside him, looked cold: "There are many kinds of guests, and we will not welcome them!"

Philip didn't care, but shrugged and said lightly: "The evil guest must also give him a glass of water. Besides, even if he is a prisoner on the gallows, he will have a good meal."

David was impatient: "Want to eat? OK. Use the money to buy it, one piece of meat and one gold coin!"

Just as Bran officially said that the Grey Army was a mob, the Grey Army had no good feelings for the nobles. One gold coin and one piece of meat was of course absurd, and the meaning of rejection was obvious.

Philip seemed to have not thought this request was too much and said readily: "Ha, I'll say it earlier, this is what it should be!"

Uh, are all nobles so rich? David suddenly had the urge to change one gold coin to two... no, hardware coins. In fact, David still underestimated the true value of this horse. Such pure-bred horses are all priceless. Even if ordinary nobles want to buy it, they can't find a way...

However, after exploring his pocket, Philip reached out his empty hand and grabbed his hair: "Will you owe the debt first? I'll pay you back later."

Of course, Philip is not short of money, but not short of money does not mean that he has money on him. You should know that paying the bill is the housekeeper's job.

"Haha, I'll make a big fuss, just say it if I don't have money." David laughed mercilessly.

"Hey, there's it!" Philip pulled out the royal blue ring in his hand and handed it over, "I can pay the bill with this."

David took it and looked around and said, "You want to...uh?"

Harry pulled him behind him, looked at the ring with his eyes lit up, and his mind lit at an extremely fast frequency.

"Stone? This is azure stone!" Philip opened his mouth and said helplessly.

Azuma, the best one among diamonds, is the color, purity, and the master-level craftsmanship of this ring, with the market price of at least 50,000 gold coins.

"Isn't it just a stone!" David curled his lips, but after seeing Harry's anxious expression, he reluctantly nodded: "Okay, this is considered a hardware coin."

Heaven and earth can be seen. For David, hardware coins are really a huge sum of money.

The calculation-savvy Harry was stunned, and then looked at David admiringly, "You are cruel, you are more suitable for being a profiteer than me."

"Hardware coins? Please, this costs 50,000 gold coins!" Philip was also shocked by David's domineering price, and then said dissatisfied.

"Five 555, 50,000?" David opened his mouth wide and looked at the other person with contempt, "You are insulting my IQ!"

Rummy... Harry's face was filled with tears. He felt that his IQ was broken!

After some bargaining, the two finally made a deal with 15 gold coins. David kept muttering that he let Philip take a big advantage.

Seeing this, Tang En talked for a long time and said to himself, should I let David take charge of the team's funds?

Here, Philip finally got his hot pot meat slices as he wished.

"Well, um, um..." Hotpot is very lethal for those who are eating it at first. Philip praised it, "It's delicious, haha, it's so good. It's better to have a sip of wine now, haha..."

The iron pot was so big that a few people had less than a minute, and the slices of meat inside were quickly wiped out.

"Where is the meat, let it go." Philip, who had just become addicted to eating it, urged him urgently.

"What are you urging me? You have finished your fifteen slices." David shook his head and said while bringing the horse's legs to peel off the slices of meat.

"No, how could I eat so much just now...uh?" Philip, who was trying to defend himself, was stunned and pointed at the white-haired horse's legs and said stammeringly, "Mamamamamamamamamama..."

"It's just a horse, why don't you eat horse meat?"

"That's my horse!" Philip roared suddenly.

...

The members of the gray space, including Tang En, were stunned. Damn, should you be so accurate? The victim came to the door so soon? And they just took someone else's horse and asked for money...

Huo...Philipten stood up, his face changing.

David and the others also stood up in an instant. At this moment, more than ten daggers had slid to the cuffs. After all, Aima was killed, and no one knew whether the other party would suddenly attack.

"It's good to kill! It's just delicious, it's so worth it!"

...

If he was stunned just now, then Tang En and the others were completely stunned. Who is this person?

"You are peeling the meat." Leaving this sentence, Philip ran backwards, "No food is allowed, I'll get a bottle of wine!"

…………

Philip is no longer doing his job here, but his role in the negotiation team is originally optional, so in the afternoon, the negotiations still began as usual.

After adapting and running-in in the morning, the negotiations at this time are the easiest to achieve results. This is the case. In the afternoon, 70,000 kilograms of rice, 80,000 kilograms of flour, and a total of 150,000 kilograms of grain were initially formulated.

Of course, this is just a preliminary formulation, and there may be fluctuations later due to the choice of other conditions. But no matter what, these 100,000 kilograms of grain and grass are basically about to enter the Gray Clothing Army warehouse.

Luosha and the others were satisfied with this achievement. In fact, their original goal was to win 100,000 kilograms, but now there are so many more, and they feel like they are being smashed by a pie.

As for the old nobles' faces, they were a little complicated and hard to say. It was not all because of these foods, but because of some people.

"Haha, if you are already dark today, if you don't dislike it, you can stay for dinner before leaving." With such results, Luo Sha was in a good mood and spoke to keep the other party.

"Uh, thank you, no need, let's visit those juniors and leave."

"This is no problem. You have paid the jail fee for the jailing, haha..." Luosha agreed with a full face.

The visit fee... the old nobles twitched their eyes and couldn't help but look at the cold Joshia behind them.

Damn, how did we come up with this idea? We have lived for most of our lives and have never heard of the jail fee...

In fact, these old nobles are still very confident about the afternoon negotiations. After all, there is experience, how could they not be able to talk about these country bumpkins?

But soon they discovered that the pace of negotiation was completely controlled by the other party, or to be precise, by a young man and woman, whose names were Joshia and Borg.

The beautiful girl had the same calmness and sharpness as she looked. When she was passive in the afternoon negotiations, they were ready to use some common methods, such as avoiding the important and being light, or deliberately distracting the topic to disrupt the rhythm of the other party's speech. This is easy to be familiar to them who often attend the parliament. Giving a cup of tea, they could even talk endlessly for hours without repetition. Of course, there was no substantial content in it.

But this time it won't work, because every time this time, the girl who has not spoken will stand up, either speak in a few words or point it straight to the center, and quickly bring the topic back to negotiations.

This method is undoubtedly rude. If it were other times, the negotiation would have collapsed long ago. But this negotiation is different. The other party has absolute initiative. If it collapses, they will eventually repair the relationship painfully, and even pay the price for it.

Moreover, the beautiful woman named Joshia has a very strange mind. When they asked to visit the unlucky younger generations, she actually asked for a prison fee and listed a lot of reasons such as protection, accommodation, food, etc. They finally felt that it was unreasonable if they didn't give it to them...

After being distracted several times, the young man named Borg took advantage of the situation and spoke various data in detail, and finally settled the preliminary compensation for the food.

These old nobles also realized their problem at this time, that is, they did not pay enough attention.

The excuses that were originally proposed for lack of supplies, food shortages in the north, etc. were blocked by Borg with various rigorous data, which eventually left them speechless.

When this situation occurs, it is obvious that the other party has prepared a lot of time for this negotiation. However, relatively speaking, they have only a little understanding of the situation of the gray-clothed army. After the bribery plan as a killer weapon fails, they are completely in a passive state.

The afternoon negotiations were only a few hours, but this was definitely their most painful negotiation experience. For example, when they were pricked with needles, they could not remember how many times they took out a towel to wipe the sweat on their foreheads.

After leaving the tent and feeling the cold evening breeze blowing on their faces, they all felt relieved...

"Well, here it is here!" Luosha pointed to the only wooden house in the station in front of him.

Bollet touched the wooden board several feet thick, looked at the wooden house that had no gap except a small window, and was furious, "Is this the accommodation you provide? This is simply a boar shack."

"His Excellency Sir Bollet!"

Bollet's eyelids hopped, and he watched the beautiful girl come out again.

"The north is cold, and the wild boar shed you said can perfectly resist any cold wind and keep the indoor temperature." Joshia's lips curled slightly, revealing a smile, "Besides, this is also for safety reasons, oh, by the way, you don't know. Three days ago, a group of bad-minded bandits broke in and even hurt the fingers of a noble young man. So for this, we specially built this absolutely solid wooden house to ensure their safety."

"..." The old nobles couldn't help but feel silent when they heard the girl's tone of the words "You don't know yet". Of course they knew what those "bad-minded bandits" were like...

"Uh, grandfather? Save me, grandfather!"

"Uncle, I can't stand it anymore, hurry up and save me, wuwu..."
