Sean's gaze swept over the three of them one by one, and said with a smile: "So, Your Excellency Evan is also here to join me?" ”

"Nope." The young man named Evan shook his head, his voice calm, "I'm just in charge of escorting Mayor Ziggy and Mr. Rudin. ”

Sean sighed, didn't say anything more, and then began to look through the notebook in his hand. The small book recorded some slightly more detailed list records, and there was nothing too complicated, but Sean looked at every page very carefully, until he turned through most of the book, and finally saw a specific number at the end of the book.

1371。

This means that the town can bring Shaun 1,371 gold coins per quarter.

But when Sean saw this number, the sneer in his heart became even heavier.

Red Leaf Town currently has a population of just over 1,800 people, but it can already bring him an income of 1,034 gold coins per quarter. And according to Sean's current understanding, the town managed by Mayor Ziggy has a population of more than 3,000, but it can only bring in 1,371 gold coins per quarter? He knew that there should be a trick in this small book, but he didn't understand the specific operation method, because there was no tax official in the territory at present.

The only thing Sean can rely on is the judgment of the lord system.

casually threw the small notebook on the table, but Sean showed a smile on his face and said, "Well, very good, I like people who follow the rules." …… However, there are some things that need to be taken seriously, and when the territory is settled, I will send a tax officer over. ”

When they heard the first half of the sentence, the mayor named Ziggy and the fat man Rudin both smiled humbly, but when Sean said the second half of the sentence, their faces changed slightly. However, Sean pretended not to see it at all, and had already turned his head to look at Aven, and said as if he was quite interested: "I have heard of your mercenary group, and it is indeed not easy to defeat Dabron's troops. …… Maybe there's a little bit of help you need to help you with later. I hope your remuneration is not too high. ”

"My price is absolutely fair. Rest assured, Lord. Aivan's heart froze slightly, and he obviously felt the difficulty of the Sean in front of him, "But Lord Lord, are you still planning to start another war?" ”

"Panda Town, which was originally my town, is now occupied by others, and they are wielding butcher knives at my people. If I, the lord, don't care, then who will save them? Sean said with a righteous and awe-inspiring look, "Originally, I was a little worried about the timing of the war, but now I don't have to worry, you really brought me good news." ”

Hearing Sean's words, Aivan's brows furrowed: "Lord Lord." In my opinion, your current strength doesn't seem to be enough to deal with Dabroun's forces, right? In such a situation where the probability of defeat is too high, I will not rashly accept your commission. ”

"William, counting the strength of the reserves, how many troops are there in the territory now." Sean turned his head to look at William.

Although William is not very good at handling interpersonal relationships, he is not stupid, and at this time he has already heard that Sean does not seem to be very happy about the town's initiative to surrender. But this kind of thing, of course, William will not ask questions in the current situation. So after hearing Sean's words. He immediately replied: "Counting the people of the Puda militia group, there are probably about 500 troops. ”

"Five hundred. This number is indeed a little less. Sean nodded, "That's it, your town...... By the way, the town doesn't have a name yet, does it? ”

"Please give me a name, my lord." Ziggy bowed.

"Then call it White Dovetown." Sean said lightly.

"Thank you, lord, for the name." Ziggy only dared to straighten up at this time, but the uneasiness on his face was also extremely obvious.

"It seems that you still have a lot of manpower in White Pigeon Town, so let's send five hundred young adults to join the Puda Militia Regiment." Sean said calmly, "This way we can make up a thousand infantry." ”

"Your Lord!" Ziggy and Rudin exclaimed in unison.

Five hundred young adults is not a small number for the town now known as White Pigeon Town, because the main source of income for this town is dependent on crops. Although the old people in the town can also farm, they are not as good as the young people in terms of physical strength, so the efficiency is naturally very low, and they have already fought with the Dabrohn mercenary group before, and they have lost a lot of manpower.

"Putting together a thousand-strong infantry force, plus your heroic sword, should be enough to deal with the Dabroun mercenary group, right?" Shaun ignored the two men, instead turned his head to look at Evan and chuckled.

"What if I can't say enough." Ai Wen's face was gloomy, although he had a maturity that did not match his age, but after all, he was still a little arrogant, and the momentum on his body rose rapidly at this moment, but it was condensed, but it gave people a feeling like a storm was coming.

"Then I'll send another five hundred." Sean still had a smile on his face, "From White Dove Town." ”

Mayor Zida's face was already extremely pale, and even Rudin was dumbfounded, not knowing what to say, but I was afraid that at this moment these two people would really regret coming here to find Sean. But now that it is difficult to ride a tiger, the two of them also know that the key to the problem of the road is Ai Wen's body, so the two turned their heads to look at Ai Wen, their eyes full of pleading.

"Even if you send five hundred young men into the militia regiment to form a thousand-man infantry unit, will you be able to immediately send them to the battlefield in an instant?" Ai Wen exhaled lightly and suppressed the full fire, "Not to mention the problem of training, there is also the problem of armament, how do you solve it?" …… The reason why militias are militias is that they are not mainly fighting. ”

"One to two months of intensive training is enough." Sean smiled slightly, "Ordinary infantry is not an archer responsible for long-range strikes, it is enough to understand military orders and be able to carry out basic cooperation on the battlefield." …… Anyway, in terms of long-range strikes, don't you still have your heroic sword? Moreover, the archers of the Dabrohn mercenary group are not many. ”

With that, Sean's gaze finally turned to Rudin. "As for the issue of armaments. Can anyone know better than Mr. Rudin? ”

The man, Rudin, had begun to sweat on his forehead.

"So be it for now." Sean waved his hand, signaling for the three of them to leave, "I'll let Puda lead the militia over later." As for conscription, I'm sure you'll give me a good answer, and I don't have to send someone to the town to find it, right? ”

"Yes." Mayor Ziggy nodded yes.

Immediately, Sean took out a money bag from under his desk. Throwing it to Rudin: "Inside is 10,000 gold coins, my request is very simple." The standard set for all militias is three, a spear, a broadblade, and a set of leather armor, and the rest is all for meat. Intensive training is physically exhausting, and I don't want to see these militiamen exhausted. …… Of course, if I find out you're corrupt. You should know what happened. ”

"Yes...... Yes......" Rudin was a little surprised that Sean, the lord, would actually take out the money to equip the militia group, and he thought that he was asking the town to figure out its own way.

But even so, five hundred young adults were transferred to participate in the intensive training of the militia regiment, which was a big blow to White Pigeon Town. At least this fall's harvest and sowing yields won't be much better, and if there is a real war with Dabrone, not to mention when Panda will be recovered. This is just one or two months of intensive training. It's a terrible price for White Pigeon.

The result of this conversation naturally cannot be regarded as a very happy conversation. And Sean is so strong in command and attitude. It also made the town of free habits feel a kind of embarrassment and humiliation, if they did not have resentment when they returned from this trip, the three-year-old children knew that it was impossible.

After the three of them left, William frowned and said, "It's a good thing that they came to surrender, why do you want to force them?" This is completely different from the way you deal with Momiji Town, and it's a bit too brutal. ”

"Do you think they're really here to surrender?" A sneer tugged at the corner of Sean's mouth, and his left hand waved casually in midair.

Of course, this "random wave" is just an outsider's opinion, but in fact, Sean is looking at his lord's panel, which clearly shows a statistic:

[Number of towns owned: 1]

From the moment he saw the other three come in, Sean had been staring at his lord panel, but even if they said such a thing, the data on the lord panel did not change in the slightest, which was completely different from the situation when Red Leaf Town announced its ownership - when Sean killed Hubbinder and handed over those people of Hubbinder to the town for processing, the data on the lord panel immediately changed.

Moreover, he also received a large amount of experience points for recovering Red Leaf Town, and was directly promoted to level eight.

But now, all this situation has not changed in the slightest, which can only show that the current town, which is named by itself White Dove, is not really willing to submit to it at all - what the mayor says will deceive, but the data of the system will never deceive. So if that's the case, then why should Sean be polite to them? After using the strength of this town to organize a militia group, and then defeating the Dabroun mercenary group in one go, this territory will be officially recovered, and there will be time to slowly clean up this white pigeon town.

Originally, he was thinking about waiting for Alfred to bring someone back, but the opportunity was rare at the moment, and Sean didn't plan to waste it.

After closing the lord panel, Sean turned his head to look at William and said: "The affairs of the territory have been almost dealt with, so I will leave it to you to be in charge next, train these militiamen as quickly as possible, and then take Panda Town in one go, so as not to have too many dreams at night." ”

"I know." William nodded, "So what are you going to do?" ”

"Let's do a little bit of the old business, go to Blackstone Town and take a few orders or something."

Sean glanced at his level bar, the critical point of level eight, only a little short of reaching level nine, at this time, if you don't earn some experience points, upgrade the level to level ten and prepare to hit the upper bronze, when will you wait? (To be continued.) )
