Chapter 1183: Lack of sincerity
Watching the paper ball fall into the trash can one meter away in a parabola, I was suddenly embarrassed, and subconsciously gave a thumbs up, saying: "Godfather, your kung fu of throwing paper is really a must!" ”
"Oh?" Dewey turned his head and saw that the paper ball did not fall outside the trash can, so he was relieved and said: "This is easy, you can throw it into the bucket if you have nothing to do, and throw him tens of thousands of paper balls, it can be so accurate." ”
I exclaimed, "This paper is also made of wood pulp, isn't it such a waste of trees?" ”
While painting, Dewey said casually: "What's wrong with that, anyway, it costs money, and it always has to be used, and besides, these trees are also imported from Moonlight City...... Uh, the wrong drawing again. ”
He clumped the paper into a ball again, without looking at it, and threw it into the trash can accurately, and then said to me seriously: "Don't talk to me when drawing drawings, it's easy to get distracted." ”
I apologized, and then sat down at the table honestly, obediently stretched out my arms, and didn't dare to move.
This painting was a few hours, and Dewey and Master Hall each finished drawing half of a ghost drawing.
The two old men put down their pens, rubbed their eyes, squinted at the time, and it was already more than three o'clock in the afternoon, so they stood up and said, "It's finished today, and it will continue tomorrow." ”
I honestly followed the two old men out of the secret room, and Master Hall was the first to leave, he was going to change his clothes and come back for dinner.
When Master Hall disappeared, Master Dewey spoke, "How is the wholesale Ming family I sent to Moonlight City now?" ”
I truthfully explained the current situation of the goblin assistance team to him, and Dewey nodded: "They are all elites I specially selected for you, and they are a trump card in my hand." ”
"I understand, godfather," I said respectfully, "I will do everything in my power to keep them safe." ”
"No" Dewey shook his head: "It's not you who protect them, but they want to protect you, if it's really a matter of life and death, even if they all die, you must be safe." ”
"These ......," I said for a long time, "they are your trump card......"
"Does it matter if Ace has a son?" Dewey said lightly: "I only have one favorite son, but I have a lot of trump cards, even if they are all killed now, I can immediately find a group of replacements, the reason why I say this to you is that in case they choose to commit suicide to protect you one day, you don't need to have any psychological burden." ”
Hearing this, I couldn't help but say, "Then their family ......"
"I have properly settled their families, otherwise, do you think they are really willing to give me their lives for no reason?"
Dewey looked at me with a faint smile in his eyes, the kind of smile that a father would show when he heard his child's innocent words.
Seeing Master Dewey's expression and momentum at this moment, I couldn't help but secretly rejoice that I had become his godson by mistake, not just a dispensable pawn.
At the same time, I was also frightened by Master Dewey's ruthlessness, is this the cruelty of the imperial family?
Just as he was thinking about it, a goblin suddenly came hurrying over, his face expressionless, but there was a glint in his eyes.
He walked quickly to Dewey, stopped, and looked up at me, his eyes sharp, and with a deep sense of vigilance.
Dewey said: "If you have something to say, he is my son, there is no need to avoid it." ”
"Yes," the goblin said, "Ari has sent an emissary to meet the Dwarven King and my King, who are now in the drawing room, waiting for your instructions. ”
"The Messenger of Ari City" Dewey snorted lightly: "Then let's meet." ”
"Yes," the goblin replied, bowing away.
"Emissary of Eri City......" Dewey muttered to himself.
When I saw that he was distracted, I snorted softly, "Godfather, do you want me to avoid it?" ”
"Avoiding what?" Dewey's eyes were sharp, and he said lightly: "Suddenly sent a messenger over for no reason." Surely the one who comes is not good, go, you go with me to the parlor, and meet this messenger, and give you a long insight. ”
......
......
When we arrived at the meeting room, the Dwarf King and the Goblin King sat on the left and right, Master Dewey sat under the Goblin King, and I was placed under Master Dewey.
Not long after, a man dressed in a gorgeous costume and with a majestic appearance walked into the hall, stopped more than ten meters away from the two kings, stopped, and bowed: "I've seen the dwarf king, I've seen the goblin king." ”
The dwarven king said, "Excuse me, what is the matter with the messenger here?" ”
The messenger respectfully said, "The king has sent me to make friends with your country......
After that, he said a lot of things, mostly in praise of Fort Vechi, and at the same time, he pointed out how prosperous the city of Ari was, how strong its economy was, and how many powerful adventurers there were, especially Achilles, a strong man in the legendary heroic age.
After hearing all this, the dwarf king was silent, and the goblin king said lightly: "Thank you for your compliment, let's get straight to the point, and explain your true intention to come this time." ”
The waiter was silent for a moment, and said, "King Bing, the real intention of my coming this time is to hope that your country can rebuild the old friendship with my Eri City, and send professors and scholars over, and at the same time, the king will also send professors and scholars who are proficient in breeding and taming beasts to assist your country, which not only strengthens the friendship between the two countries, but also prospers each other." ”
"Breeding and taming animals?" The Dwarf King laughed and said, "If we really want to learn how to breed and tame beasts, we can contact Dasai City, so why go far to find you?" ”
"What the dwarf king said is very true, but I hope you understand that the significance of this move is not to breed and tame animals, but to strengthen the friendship between the two countries" The envoy said: "In terms of current national strength, the strongest nature is none other than your country, followed by our country, followed by Moonlight City, and then Dasai City and York Han City, York Han City is a barren land, there is no need to worry, although the national strength of Dasai City is weak, but the territory is extremely vast, the land is fertile, cattle and sheep are herds, and the minerals are abundant. Are you willing to have as many resources as the most powerful countries than those of the weakest countries? ”
The Dwarven King and the Goblin King were silent.
The messenger continued: "My king has always respected the dwarf king Xiaoyong, and the goblin king is wise, so naturally he does not want to watch your country suffer such a grievance, and he has been sleepless for several nights, and finally he has come up with a clever plan to solve this trouble for your country. ”
The dwarven king said, "Say." ”
The envoy said: "My king hopes to form an alliance with your country, and join hands to annex the city of Dasai, which is rich in resources but does not know how to make good use of it, and at the same time, give two-thirds of the land to your country, and only one-third of our land remains, so that your country will have a lasting source of goods, and from now on, you will no longer have to worry about resources." ”
"Hmm" The Dwarf King nodded slightly, the expression on his face was indifferent.
The goblin king spoke: "According to your analysis, I, Vicky Castle, have taken a big advantage!" ”
"Exactly," the messenger said.
"However, there is no pie in vain in this world, you drove away many adventurers of our clan before, and this time you came to unite with us" The goblin king sneered: "I'm afraid it's a lack of sincerity." ”
