Chapter 168 Bargaining
"These are for training." I smiled and said to Hilmi beside me, and then put a lot of wooden stakes and iron nets in the open space. "Let Eric and all come and have a look later and copy these things to their training position."
Several teams we divided are looking for a large open space for training.
"Come here and I'll teach you how to use these things." I shouted with a smile, and a group of orcs, lovers, and human soldiers all leaned closer to me.
I looked at the wooden stakes in front of me, showed my teeth slightly, put on a smile, and felt nostalgic. In my previous life, when I was trained by an officer, I also ran on these wooden stakes with a grumbentful face and climbed over those high brick walls. Now I just piled up with wood, and those that were paved too low. The iron net, which was also covered with barbed hooks, was accidentally scratched out of blood several times, and then climbed out and was beaten by the officer.
After explaining to my escort for a long time, they realized that this thing is a training device, that is, they don't believe that they can train, but they like these things very much. Although it's not easy, they prefer this kind of boring training.
But the problem also happens from time to time. Just now, there was an orc who climbed halfway in the iron net and stood up. The inverted thorn of the iron net did not hurt him much, but the whole net was supported by him, and my whole face was blackened. Then White had something to do.
There was also an Ayr and a human who was trying to climb over the wooden wall, and then the human quickly climbed up. The Ayr did not climb well and fell to the ground for a while. Seeing that half of the human body had passed, the Ayr directly broke through the wooden wall and jumped over. Of course, it was White who was waiting for him.
In the evening, the tired soldiers returned to the tent, and I also gathered a little with my friends.
"We should find a cook or something..." I said, holding the bread in my hand.
"Ah, don't do it anymore, Brother Nia! Super tired!" Larryville lay on the table and said.
"Why do I think you are completely enjoying it?" I glanced at her and said, "How did you train?"
"Play, play hide-and-seek, I catch them, they hide, and train them to hide in this way." Larry said.
"What about you?"
"I'll take them to run nearby." Eric said happily, "Run around the woods. Seeing that they don't run far, they don't have the strength to have a sense of achievement."
Ronley and Namien are almost the same. After all, they were handed over by Uncle Burton. Running is the first step they can think of in their training.
Then I also introduced those devices to them and asked them to get one at their own place tomorrow.
"My day is the most boring day." White looked up at the top of the tent and said, "There is nothing to do at all, but Nia sent some people to give me some time..."
"I still have some, and you can catch them all tomorrow." Ina said and handed over a list, "My people sorted it out today."
"In the future, as soon as they make mistakes, let them report directly to me."
"White, if you have nothing to do, make the military law quickly. Be concise. Those guys can understand better." I said, and then grabbed a loaf of bread, "Shirmi, you can go to the town tomorrow to find some cooks, or Ina, you will see if you can cook in the barracks tomorrow."
"It costs a lot of money to find a cook! However, Sister Aina can just look for it in the barracks. Hilmi said and then looked at me, "I have done some statistics today. I don't spend much money on buying materials, but... everything else is ready, except shoes, which are a little expensive."
"Shoes?" I was stunned. I didn't have to buy it, did I?
"I heard that a big merchant monopolized the shoe industry in the town, and then we bought so much at one time. They raised the price very high, at least 5 times the original price." Hilmi lowered his head and said, "Do you still want to buy it?"
"You can't let my soldiers fight barefoot." Although this is a little exaggerated, there can't be some people wearing straw shoes and some cloth shoes, right? And the orcs and the lovers really don't have a pair of shoes.
I frowned and said, "Who dares to raise the price so high? Let's go and have a look right away, Hilmi, Larry, White. You and I will bring your law enforcement team.
"Good."
Soon, we came to the town with our horses. After all, we were unwilling to leave. At night, the town was not so noisy. Soon Hilmi took me to find the shoe factory. There was a mansion next to it, and several guards were guarding at the door.
"What kind of person!"
"Where's your boss?" I immediately got off the horse and asked.
"I'm not here!" The guard shouted directly.
"There is a woman's voice on it. Did you tell me that your boss is not here? Call him down!"
"I said we..." The guard still wanted to speak, and White rushed straight up and punched him and knocked him to the ground.
"Go and shout, or you will end up like him!" I shouted to another person.
"Yes!" The guard bowed his head and rushed up immediately.
Before long, a fat man in pajamas came down and said to me with a smile, "Sir, what's the matter with you looking for me as a businessman?"
"Don't call me old, call me young master. I asked someone to buy your shoes. I heard that you raised the price very high? I said with a smile, "You don't want to live if you dare to carry a bamboo pole with me."
"No, young master, our shoes are all good cloth shoes! This price is absolutely fair!" The fat man paused and immediately understood my purpose. He narrowed his eyes and said, "Well, our shoes..."
"Don't say." I said that I moved out of Biel, "I'm Biel's nobleman. I'm arming my own private army now. I can't let my soldiers wear shoes, can I? The nearby shoe industry is monopolized. I can only come to you to buy it, but this price is impossible.
"Young master, this is embarrassing for me! The cost of our shoes is worth this price! We have already calculated it for you at the lowest price!" Does the damn fat man really know how to talk? Five times the price is the lowest? This is called a VIP price! I really wanted to go up and slap him twice, but I still suppressed the impulse.
"Don't make me angry again, or I'll move all your warehouse." I have a hamster in my hand! What is a hamster? Move the hamster! Although I can move the warehouse with my space ring.
"You can't do this! My uncle is Sergeant Eugene Ronald! He has an army!" The fat man smiled and brought out a guy I don't know who it was to threaten me.
"Oh? Who doesn't have it? What I want is shoes.
"100 gold coins." The fat man showed his index finger.
"20." I stretched out two fingers and said.
"200 gold coins." The fat man squinted at me and showed two fingers.
"20." My face gradually became gloomy.
"300 gold coins." The fat man's face remained unchanged and continued to show his third finger.
"White, beat him."
"Yes."
"Wait! My uncle is..." The fat man still wanted to speak, but White immediately slapped the fat man to the ground, and the guard on the side dared not come up to their master.
"What are you looking at! A bunch of rice buckets! Ske him!" The fat man got up and immediately pointed to White, and then pointed to me again, "And him!"
The guard was stunned and rushed to White, but at this time, several orc soldiers behind him immediately leaned out and squeezed into White and hit all the guards three or two times.
I smiled and asked Larry for a dagger and put it on his neck. "How much?"
"40! 40!" This guy is also a talent. He is willing to test my bottom line at this time, but I won't give him a chance.
"I'm not kidding you."
20! 20 gold coins!" The fat man shouted in surprise.
"Is it very sensible?" I patted him on the head with a smile, then took out a money bag and put it in front of him and said, "This is 10 gold coins. Send 1,000 pairs of shoes to the south barracks tomorrow morning."
"Let's go." Leaving the damn fat man behind, we rode back to the barracks.
The next day, I was woken up by a horn early in the morning.
"Who is blowing the trumpet?" I asked Hilmi.
"Aina arranged it to make it easier for everyone to gather, and so are other military camps." Hilmi said he pulled me up and helped me get dressed.
"It's too unpleasant to blow. Let him go to White to sit down." I said dissatisfiedly.
"The horn is too stuffy... Who still has mental training... It must be replaced. Go to Sam in a couple of days and ask him to help me build something." I said angrily, and then came to the table and quickly drew a drawing, "Send it to Sam and ask him to help me build it."
"When will I go?"
"Come back next time you go to buy supplies." I said casually, "Help me tie my hair."
"Oh." Hilmi answered that he was still looking at the unique shape on the drawing and asked, "What is this?"
"This is called a small account."
......
Another day of training, and today some businessmen have entered our territory one after another, and then were picked up by Eric. They all brought full supplies, some clothes, some hats, some weapons, and some underwear...
again and again, all of which Hilmi bought in the town yesterday, but those shoes still didn't come. Finally, I sent two scout soldiers to see what was going on, and soon the news was brought back.
Nia! It's not good!" Larry rushed to my tent, "That fat man swallowed your 10 gold coins!"
"What!? Your uncle! I just taught him a lesson yesterday!" I jumped up and shouted, and then asked, "What's going on?"
"I took a look at the situation and said that there was a guard at the door! A lot, a lot, and some in armor!" Larry said anxiously.
"It seems that he went to the early uncle. What's his name? Forget it, on the contrary, it's just a sergeant." I said dissatisfiedly, "Larevi, go and help me find out where his supply came from."
"What are you going to do?" Larry asked doubtfully.
I raised the corners of my mouth slightly and said, "Go get my shoes!"
