Chapter 447: Good News?
I didn't expect these fruits to be Samon's inventory for hundreds of years, and it was amazing to be able to do without a refrigerator!
Jia Zhengjin failed to deceive more fruits, and although he was disappointed, he was still unwilling to give up.
After all, Simon was interested in potions, and he was naturally reluctant to let go of such a good opportunity. If he could take the opportunity to knock more good things on him, he would definitely not be merciful! If it was really possible, he even wanted to use the mid-to-high-level potion formula to exchange for the ninth-order demon core in Simon's hand.
Well, he also knew that the odds were almost zero. Simon's barrage of responses has proven this.
But there is a saying that does not say: hard work will pay off!
If you just see that the probability is very low and give up, how can this work? No matter how low the probability is, there is still a chance for him! If you think that it is impossible and do not go for it, then there is really no possibility at all! But if you try your best to fight for it, you will be lucky to be interested, and then you will have a little chance of winning it!
Therefore, Jia Zhengjin did not give up, but still knocked on the side, wanting to know the bottom line of Simon's transfer of the ninth-order demon core. Although he still refused completely, Jia Zhengjin still did not give up hope.
When Simon simply turned a deaf ear and began to manufacture a large number of potions as if Jia Zhengjin did not exist, Jia Zhengjin, who was about to continue his efforts, was interrupted by a subordinate who suddenly came over.
"Master Keane!" the soldier respectfully beckoned him out of the alchemy lab.
"What's the matter?" Jia Zhengjin asked, looking at the unnamed soldier.
"Report to Lord Keane," the soldier immediately knelt down on one knee, "General Karl has returned with his troops, accompanied by a caravan from the Kingdom of Salves!"
"Oh, Carl is finally back, let's go and have a look!" Jia Zhengjin hurriedly put down the affairs of the Saimeng first, and hurriedly ran to the city gate.
When I arrived outside the city gate, I saw a long caravan waiting along the road. Unexpectedly, compared to when he set out, the size of the caravan was at least twice as large.
At the head of the caravan, of course, was Karl, the captain of the convoy, and next to him was the merchant Polypoch.
"Welcome back to the Holy Dragon City!" Jia Zhengjin ordered to open the city gate, laughing and greeting out.
"See Lord Keane!" Karl knelt down from Dakras's back and fell straight to one knee.
"Well, I've worked hard for you this time!" Jia Zhengjin stretched out his hand to help him up, "Recently, you have another companion, hurry up and get to know each other!"
"Yes!" Karl immediately ordered the kobold troops, and the team marched towards the city.
"Lord Keane," after Poripocchi waited for Karl to lead the team into the city, he also came to Jia Zhengjin, "I'm coming to the Holy Dragon City to buy again!"
"Haha! I'm waiting for you!" Jia Zhengjin said with a smile, "The vegetables and fruits in the city have been piled up, and thousands of people can't eat them all! This time, you have to help me empty the inventory and make enough space!"
"Well said!" Polipoch laughed happily, he made a lot of money selling fruit and honey this time, and he was in a good mood, "By the way, congratulations to Lord Keane!"
"Congratulations to me? Why?" Jia Zhengjin said in his heart that I could be attacked by a ninth-order master at any time, and I was worried about this!
Polypoch was stunned for a moment, and scratched his head blankly: "Lord Keane, you don't know?"
"What do I know?" Jia Zhengjin looked at him suspiciously.
"We came along the way and heard that the Imperial coalition forces were retreating. "Isn't it true that the Holy Dragon City defeated the Imperial Alliance and won this great battle?"
"Huh?" Hearing these inexplicable words, Jia Zhengjin felt quite speechless, "Defeat the Imperial Alliance? When did it happen? Now it is at most a small battle on the edge, and we haven't gone head-to-head yet! Are you mistaken, how can there be such a thing?"
"Uh~ Lord Keane, there's no way I'm mistaken!" Boripocchi replied, "Our Chamber of Commerce has magical correspondents in many countries, and they will establish good relations with officials or nobles of each country, and find out from each other that some countries are war-related to each other. Officials and nobles of those countries will also communicate with other allies through magical communication to obtain first-hand information. You know, if we businessmen want to do business, we must first have the right information, right? What goods are sold in peacetime, and what materials will be in short supply in wartime, we must have a complete grasp of them. Because this is a matter that is closely related to us, there is absolutely no room for any mistakes!In short, the information we have received is that the four great empires have notified all the human countries that have joined the alliance, although they do not know why, they have ordered all their troops to withdraw and end their combat readiness!"
"Really?" Jia Zhengjin felt inexplicable after hearing this, could there be any change in the other party? But what kind of situation could cause the alliance forces of hundreds of empires to abandon the war and retreat directly?
Wait! Could it be that Connie personally went to the four empires and subdued the strong men of the other side?
Other than this, Jia Zhengjin really can't think of other possibilities.
If he knew that the reason for all this was his own mistake, which made the Earth Sword God Piros and the Storm Lord Olmat think that they were a terrifying space archmage, it was estimated that they would all lie on the ground and laugh now, instead of being nervous and only relying on Simon and their eight ninth-order demonic beasts to strengthen their courage.
"Someone!" In order to confirm the credibility of this news, Jia Zhengjin immediately called a soldier, "You immediately go to the fortress to inform General Varien, and ask him to send a message to the intelligence officers stationed in Guangming City, asking if the Storm Alliance Army has any news of the retreat of the Imperial Alliance!"
"Yes!" the soldier immediately went to Luruto's lair and took a mount, and flew directly into the air and flew towards the fortress as fast as he could.
"Lord Keane, is there really no fight yet?" Polipoch was visibly stunned.
"Doesn't your chamber of commerce have a strong intelligence system?" Jia Zhengjin asked rhetorically.
"There is some news, of course we can't grasp it if the other party doesn't release it!" Poripocchi said helplessly, "But the retreat of the Imperial Coalition is 100% correct, I can't figure out the specific reason!"
"Hmm~ If the news you said is correct, it can indeed be regarded as good news!" Jia Zhengjin nodded, "Don't say so much, it's tiring to travel a long distance, right? We'll talk about business again tomorrow!"
"Wait!" said Polypoch, "Lord Keane, allow me to introduce you to a distinguished guest!"
"Distinguished guest?" Jia Zhengjin turned his head to look at him and wondered, "You also brought other people here?" Oh, that's right! Your team has more than doubled this time! Okay! Who are the distinguished guests you are talking about?"
"Lord Keane, please follow me!" Polipoch immediately led the way, leading him to the carriage in the middle of the caravan.
