High Risk, High Reward!
"One hour, one hundred Gold Soul Coin!"
Xiao Wu felt like money was falling from the sky!
The auction will last for two hours, which means that she can get two hundred Gold Soul Coin, which is more than enough for six years of tuition + food expenses.
But Zhou Qing and Tang San both know that with the way Xiao Wu spends money, these two hundred Gold Soul Coin can be used for one semester, which can be called "thrifty and thrifty".
"Okay, that's it."
Xiao Wu immediately tore off the task paper and went to Alice to stamp it.
"Why did you choose this mission?"
Tang San looked away from Xiao Wu who was communicating with Alice enthusiastically, and asked Zhou Qing.
"Let's see who will get my piece of Soul Bone, and then——"
"Take it back." Tang San's eyes lit up. When it came to "stealing", he was an expert, and that thing belonged to Zhou Qing.
"Romanyac bought this piece of Soul Bone from me. The money and goods are clear, and it has nothing to do with me. If I accidentally lost that thing, I would have to find a way to get it back." Zhou Qing shook his head.
"Then why do you want to know who finally got Soul Bone?"
"As I said before, if that Dales is determined to cause chaos among Nuoding City, to create a reason for conflict between Two Great Empires, and to make a big deal out of small things, then the only place where it can make a fuss is with that piece of Soul Bone."
Zhou Qing said, "I also learned about the title system of the Heaven Dou Empire in Library. Within the territory of the Heaven Dou Empire, there are many independent kingdoms and principalities that have great autonomy and self-care rights. They just need to surrender to the Heaven Dou Empire. On the territory, they must be included in the entire territory of the Heaven Dou Empire."
"Nuoding City is Fasinuo Province that directly belongs to the Heaven Dou Empire. However, due to the system above Heaven Dou Empire, the lord of such a small town also has great autonomy and self-care rights."
"Before the matter really gets serious, the city lord would not dare to report this kind of thing anyway. That would make him lose his position as city lord."
"And if you think about it on the bright side, if there was a big fuss but the matter was calmed down in the end, wouldn't it be his credit?"
Tang San's eyes darkened. "No wonder he was able to teach such an arrogant and domineering son as Xiao Chenyu."
In most cases -
Like father, like son.
But looking at it on the other hand, if there is such a son, then his father will not be much better even if he wants to come.
"This is just a guess, but we must confirm who will get the piece of Soul Bone in order to establish multiple plans to prevent the entire Nuoding City from falling into turmoil due to the arrogance of Nuoding City's City Lord Xiao... At least from the adventurers of the Nuoding Guild, we know that City Lord Xiao is lustful and gambling... When that time comes, I estimate that Nuoding City will lock down the city, and I don't want to be trapped here."
Zhou Qing said seriously, "This is the worst result, but we have to consider our own life safety. Once a large-scale conflict really breaks out between the two small towns, the enemy may use any dirty tricks, such as poisoning rivers and wells."
Regarding poisons, Tang San has the most say. However, he has not yet figured out how many medicinal materials there are in this world that are different from those in his previous life. He does not dare to be arrogant and say that he can cure all the poisons in the world.
Even if you have the ability to prepare an antidote, you still need to understand its properties first and slowly test it... This kind of thing cannot be completed in a day or two.
Therefore, when that time comes, you may really have to plan multiple plans in advance to prepare for emergencies.
"Is all this caused by that Dales? If something happens to him..." Tang San suddenly thought of a key point——
Zhou Qing's Soul Bone will be exposed because of Dales!
Nuoding City There is a one in 10,000 chance that unrest will occur in the future, also because of Dales!
As long as this guy who has been on his [Already Path to Death] list dies suddenly, will everything be over?
Seeing Tang San having the idea of assassinating Dales, Zhou Qing thought for a while and said, "It's not as simple as Dales causing it., in the final analysis, it was because I did not trust Xiao Wu and Romantina at the time and did not put Soul Bone into Storage Soul Tool at the first time..."
"And Dales just took the opportunity to find an opportunity that might muddy the waters of Nuoding City... Star Luo Empire's military strength is strong, so it must be eyeing Heaven Dou Empire. The mainland is still stable now, but Two Great Empires has its own internal problems..."
"Although I believe that Dales is not that capable of causing a war, if he really dies, and also dies in Nuoding City, things will really break out."
Tang San stand up and admit it?
There is a probability.
But after this probability, the greater probability is that Tang Hao's crazy thing suddenly jumped out, beat everyone present to death with a hammer, and died without evidence, and then left Nuoding City with Tang San, Xiao Wu, and possibly himself...
The greater possibility is that he, Tang San, Xiao Wu, and Romantina left Nuoding City early under the arrangement of the deputy city lord.
Then, City Lord Xiao used various connections to make Romanyac a shield and scapegoat, and died to apologize.
No matter which possibility is possible, it is not what Zhou Qing wants to see.
Dales came to Falling Star City from Star Luo City six years ago. Although he was excluded, his identity and status are the most sensitive.
If Tang San really kills Dales, it will directly lead to the outbreak of a large-scale war between Two Great Empires... It may not be that serious, but it is certain that small-scale conflicts often break out between Nuoding City and Falling Star City and the surrounding areas.
That would seriously affect the stability of nearby villages.
Tang San thought about it and had to give up the plan to assassinate Dales. He also seemed to want to understand why the chivalrous people of the Tang Sect in the previous life assassinated all kinds of dog officials and profiteers, but the lives of the people were still so miserable...
But he still asked, "Where is Dales currently?"
"Soul Bone Auction, he will definitely be there, and he must also be at Nuoding City. I suspect he may be staying with City Lord Xiao..."
As soon as Zhou Qing finished speaking, Xiao Wu came back with the task paper. The original thirteen "√"s drawn on it became sixteen.
Putting the task paper back on the task wall, Xiao Wu said, "The ticked circles below represent the number of people participating in the guard. Counting us, there are now a total of sixteen people participating in this task. Tang San, tell me, why is such a profitable task not filled up all at once?"
"Ah?" Tang San, who was thinking about the question, was interrupted and didn't pay attention to what Xiao Wu asked, "Can you say it again?"
Xiao Wu rolled his eyes and said to Zhou Qing, "Answer."
"It's very simple. It's easy to offend people with this task. Most of the people who dare to go to the auction house are Soul Master, and they covet Soul Bone."
Zhou Qing answered casually, "As guards and patrollers, it is easy for me and others to conflict with Soul Master who intends to cause trouble during the work process——"
"This is also the main reason why one hundred Gold Soul Coin per hour."
"High risk, high reward!"
