More than ten days have passed since Klose entered the Bankaz territory.

During this time, his team suffered a total of three attacks. Twice from thieves and once from a rout.

It was not so much a rout, but a rout by Klose.

According to the captives, they were the troops of the Grand Prince of Bankaz. They pretended to be horse thieves and attacked caravans that traded with the second and third princes. In order to weaken the strength of the two younger brothers.

Klose had already sent messengers to the capital of the Three Princes to deliver the message in advance. But after a few days, not only did the messenger not return, but his sister did not send to pick him up.

Could it be that something was wrong?

It was a sunny day, and there wasn't much to see in Bankaz under the sun. It is surrounded by decadent rocks and savannah plains. Only a small stream that meanders southward can make Klose feel alive.

He hadn't seen pedestrians on the road for two days in a row, which reminded him of a movie he had seen in his previous life, "Hoh Xil No Man's Land".

Although he hadn't been to Hoh Xil in person, the scene here shouldn't be much worse?

"Oops~~~ The road here is really difficult, my ass is going to be turned into four petals~~~~"

Lana, wrapped in a fur blanket, lay lazily in the carriage. After these days of getting along, the hint of ladylike pretense she disguised in front of Klose has been completely exposed.

Klose didn't care too much, he looked at the other party with a smile and said, "Who asked you to wrap all the fur blankets I put under my buttocks, it was originally used to alleviate the bumps." And you're so afraid of the cold. ”

Wrapped in those fur blankets, Lana sniffed and protested, "No, what do you mean I'm afraid of the cold?" It's cold, okay? I've never experienced such a cold winter before in Cartier! Oh no, it's not even winter yet. ”

Klose laughed: "Cartier? I've heard Huporu say it's a seaport city. Isn't it supposed to be a harbour city all year round? It's not surprising that there's no cold here. But ah, it should be much better if you go back to Eagle Stream Canyon with me. The temperature there is much warmer than here~ Although I haven't made the heating yet, there is something called chili pepper in my territory, and you just need to eat a bite, which will definitely make you feel the urge to run naked in the snow! ”

Lana pouted and rolled his eyes at Klose: "Hey, hey~~~ You're a nobleman, don't say anything naked in front of an unmarried lady, it's too rude!" ”

"Really? Miss Lana, so who was talking about her ass in front of a person of the opposite sex just now? Is this what an unmarried lady should say? ”

Lana's face changed, and she quibbled, "That's different! I can say that, but you can't! It's a privilege to be a lady! ”

"Hahahaha~~~~" Klose laughed and said: "You remind me of some friends I knew before, ouch~ I have to say that I see a long-lost feminism in you~ Well, maybe you are the vanguard of feminism in this world, I have to say, you are at the forefront of this era, very fashionable!" ”

Lana couldn't understand what he was saying, so she simply buried her head in the blanket.

Klose shook his head, opened the curtain, and slipped out of the carriage. And outside it was the poor, runny, shivering ..... who had been kicked out of the carriage by Lana Mourning.

"Hey my friend, are you alright? I have a cloak here, do you want to put it on first? ”

Mourning sat outside shivering from the cold, and when he saw the cotton cloak handed out by Klose, he snatched it away.

"Why didn't that dead woman let me stay in the carriage!?"

When he saw Klose, he began to complain.

Klose spread his hands and said, "No way, just because she is my newly hired Chancellor of the Exchequer." If I don't want to become a poor bastard, I have to listen to her, so I can only wronged you~"

The white of his eyes were about to roll to the back of his head, and he said angrily, "This is not fair! ”

Klose slapped him with his elbow and said, "Oh, you're a big man, how can you deal with a woman?" Come on, come on, I have a bottle of Erguotou for you here. ”

When Fu Kun heard that there was a second pot to drink, his eyes immediately shot out, and his body no longer trembled!

He took the low flat glass bottle from Klose's hand, eagerly unscrewed the lid and sniffed deeply.

"Well~~~ah~~~ That's the taste~~~ Since I've drunk your wine, other wine can't enter my mouth, how do you say you want to accompany me?"

Klose laughed and said, "How can I accompany you?" You can spend money to buy it from me~ The wine I produce here is clearly priced, and the bottle in your hand is the last bottle I gave you for free.

Words for the next bottle.... Let me think.... If it's your first time, I can give you a discount of six silver coins per bottle! It's the first charge bonus~! If you buy ten bottles at a time, I can count you for ninety-eight silver coins.

Of course, there are one hundred and ninety-eight silver coins behind me, and three hundred and twenty-eight silver coins, and six hundred and forty-eight of the highest grades~~~~ You can choose from the higher the price, the taste and consistency of the wine are different. Some of them can even be used to replenish their magic! What do you think? Interested in giving it a try? ”

Fu Kun grinned and said, "What one hundred and twenty-eight, six hundred and forty-eight?" Why is the price set this way? ”

Klose shrugged: "It's nothing, that's my grudge as a mobile gamer." I'm going to go back this time and ask Hu Bolu to change all the goods in my territory to this grade of price. Roar roar roar ~~~ As the saying goes, there is nothing that a six-four-eight can't do, if there is, then charge two more six-four-eight! And so on will always solve your troubles~"

Fu Kun waved his hand and put away the wine bottle: "I don't know what you're talking nonsense, go and go, don't disturb me to taste wine!" ”

"Okay~"

Klose got into the carriage again.

In this way, after half a day of driving, his team finally found a ruined town behind a ruined rock wall.

Why do you say dilapidated? Because there are not many houses in this town that have four walls intact! Almost all of them are dilapidated, just like the ruined cities after the war.

Klose looked at Lana and asked, "Hey, my Chancellor, do you have any thoughts on any of this?" ”

Lana shook her head: "I just promised to be your Chancellor of the Exchequer, not your military staff officer, where do I have any ideas?" I'm just a woman~~Weak woman~~~ You just need to leave all your money to me to take care of. ”

Klose pouted noncommittally: "But I don't think so. I think the current situation in Bankaz, which you analyzed for me a few days ago, makes sense! They have internal and external troubles, if they can't solve the problem of the heir to the kingdom as soon as possible, then it is estimated that they will either be swallowed by the silver lion or by the grizzly bear, right? ”

The two families that Klose is talking about are two military power powers adjacent to the Bankaz territory! And Sieg, the silver lion, had another confrontation with the Grizzlies in the east, and it ended with the silver lion having a slight advantage.

Of course, the lord of the grizzly bear will not stop there, and it is said that he is still secretly plotting to take revenge on the silver lion.

Klose added, "But it seems that the boy Sigon has gone north to deal with the barbarians, and has no plans to do anything to Bankaz for the time being. With that said.... Their worst enemy is the Grizzly Bear family from the east? ”

Hearing him ask, Lana also frowned and said, "Based on what I have seen and heard in the past ten days and my speculation, I conclude that it is very likely that the Grizzly Bear family is contributing to the current domestic chaos in Bankaz." I have to say that the eldest prince of Bankaz is a pig! ”

"Humph! Purr! ”

A protesting pig cry came, and Lana quickly changed her words: "Oh no! That great prince is as stupid as a donkey! ”

Well, the pig barking stopped.

He robbed the caravan of the second prince and the third prince like this, and in the end only consumed the national strength of his own country. If no merchant dares to enter the Bankaz territory to do business, then he will face more difficulties than just those in front of him. And look at what we have come along the way, and what has become of Bankaz's own territory? There was no one to cultivate, and there was no large-scale army, the people were almost independent, and the city lords were also acting against their own petty calculations. I think it's hard for Bankaz to survive this turmoil. ”

After listening to Lana's analysis, Klose frowned rarely.

He said with a serious face: "But if Bankaz can't hold on, won't my sister just get married and become a slave to the country?" No way! I have to help her. My lady Lana, is there anything you can do? How about we help the Three Princes and let him win the battle for the heir this time? ”

Lana gave Klose another white eye. She lay down in the carriage and said, "There is nothing you can do about my lord! I'm just a weak businesswoman who was kicked out by the Chamber of Commerce~ Taking care of your money is my biggest role~ As for the rest.... Leave it to fate! ”

Klose shook his head with a wry smile, wanting to squeeze out all the potential of this female genius, it seems that it is not something that can be done in a short period of time.
