Chapter 268. Scared Quails (5th Shift)
"Nope! Baron Kant, this is all a misunderstanding! โ
One of the merchants jumped off his horse in an instant and walked forward quickly.
But this action aroused the vigilance of the Swadia knight who was protecting Kant by his side, raised his cone gun and aimed it at him, and reprimanded viciously: "Stop! Humble guys! โ
"Lord Baron Kant! That is true! โ
The merchant was unimpressed, and said in a low voice: "I am the caravan of Viscount Wayne, the lord of the Northern County, maybe there is some misunderstanding, we definitely have no intention of launching a rebellion or overthrowing your rule. Looking at Kant, his tone was a little proud: "That's right, Viscount Wayne sent me his handwritten letter, hoping to start a trade cooperation with you, but I haven't seen anyone with you, so I want to go to your sentry oasis to see it in person." โ
"Viscount Wayne?" Kant narrowed slightly.
"Yes." The merchant wiped the cold sweat from his face, and quickly took out the letter in his arms: "This is it, the letter written by Viscount Wayne himself!" โ
Kant took it, and it was a traditional aristocratic ornament on it.
It looks like it's indeed Viscount Wayne's ornamentation, and the letter is sealed with high-quality beeswax.
"Interesting, isn't it?"
Kant chuckled: "Viscount Wayne, lord of the Northern County Lord, the strongest viscount, let you convey the envelope to me." Kant's face drooped: "Do you think I will believe it?" You are the most humble businessman, but you lie in the name of Viscount Wayne and want to cheat in a way that goes unpunished! โ
The businessman's face was stunned, and he wanted to say something: "It's... It's true..."
But Kant said directly in a deep voice: "This fraudster who dares to set off a rebellion in the name of Viscount Wayne must definitely be sentenced to death and executed immediately!" โ
Finally, Kant turned his head to the Swadian knight behind him.
"Poofโ"
The originally diagonally raised cone-headed gun was put down in an instant.
The Swadia horse under his crotch continued to charge in just half a meter, and the cone-headed spear in the knight's hand easily pierced the merchant's chest.
"Hey... No... He..."
The merchant's eyes widened and he tried to say something, but his trachea was blocked by blood gushing from his broken lungs, and he couldn't say anything, and fell to the ground.
The merchants and caravan guards behind him were already wide-eyed.
The killing was right around the corner.
The two merchants who instigated the guards to storm the post station immediately rode their horses and galloped away not far away.
Despair on the face.
Do they know that the merchant who had just been shot to death was indeed a merchant of Viscount Wayne.
Who in the circle of businessmen can't know whom?
But even so, Kant ordered him to be killed.
Even if the two of them say the backers behind them, it is estimated that the end will be just as miserable, because they know that Kant came here this time, and he didn't fight and let go of the idea that the three instigators of them were alive!
And so it is!
Kant waved his hand: "Kill them and bring back the corpses." โ
"Understood!"
Rolf nodded, and glanced behind him, the desert bandits.
20 desert bandits attack.
These skilled bandits soon caught up with the two pampered merchants.
A short javelin thrown in hand.
Directly pierced the lungs and chest, the two corpses fell off the horse, and they directly bent down and pulled their desert horses, walked around quickly, rushed back, and threw the corpses heavily on the ground.
"Alright, our troubles are solved."
Kant chuckled.
Looking at the guards who were restless and belonged to these three merchants, he said lightly: "Forget it, I know that you must have been bewitched by these merchants, and you will not be sent to death." โ
"Thank you! Lord Kant! โ
The hope in despair made the guards who were already trembling their legs and not daring to move to tears.
"Then it's our turn."
Kant smiled and looked at the other merchants.
Although all the three people led by him were killed, Kant didn't plan to let these guys go so easily.
Dare to storm the station, go deep into the desert, and do not follow his rules, then there will be corresponding consequences, Kant said lightly: "Don't you want to leave so easily without paying any price?" โ
"We are willing, willing to pay the ransom!"
These merchants had no intention of resisting.
The killing just now has made them understand Kant's authority in this desert.
Even the businessmen of Viscount Wayne killed when they said they would, and the businessmen of other powerful aristocratic families also showed no mercy, and this kind of terrifying killing was decisive, which made these businessmen feel that this Baron Kant did not have the "gentlemanly demeanor" that the nobles have always touted and was very popular.
Of course, Kant knew what this "gentlemanly demeanor" in the aristocracy was, that is, something that distinguished ordinary people from aristocratic status, just a group of aristocratic idle and boring rules.
As the lord of the Naren Desert and a baron, Kant did not have to follow the rules.
Because the Narun Desert is his territory!
On his own turf, why should Kant follow the rules?
Now that he has developed and grown, Kant's power is not what it used to be, there is no need to act in full accordance with the rules of the Lion Principality as before, he can cross the line, and even rewrite this part of the rules!
That's the benefit of strength.
"Rolf."
Kant turned his head and commanded, "You settle the ransom problem." โ
"No problem!" Rolf smirked, "I love this job. โ
Those merchants couldn't help but shudder, looking at Rolf, all of them were as honest as quails, subject to the blatant murderous act just now, the bodies of the three merchants were next to them, how dare these merchants refute Rolf, what kind of conditions were proposed, what kind of conditions were agreed.
In the end, a total of more than 30 caravans, all of which signed arrears worth 8,000 large silver coins, as for the goods they brought, disguised as the goods they wanted to trade, were all confiscated and became Kant's trophies.
It's all ordinary food and daily necessities, and even iron products are very few.
How could the merchants who came to tempt have the behavior of the enemy?
However, in their speculation, what the sentry oasis lacks is food and weapons, and since weapons are not allowed to be sold, then food is definitely the top priority!
Even if you want to sell weapons, the sale of these iron products is also prohibited during the investigation of the Jianshi Pass, after all, after forging, iron products can also become weapons, and it is forbidden to transit, or to transport materials to the Narun Desert!
Baron Dylan's ambitions are also very big.
Kant's sentry oasis and salt mines are estimated to have long been his forbidden territory!
PS: Okay, the fifth watch is over, and then it's time to sleep, ahaha, no broken promise!
