These big shots are actually me - #116 - Chapter 116

Business alliance? A business alliance that is at war with the elves?

Just kidding, can I go to that place?

Moreover, he heard that the people in the Merchant Alliance were beaten to a pulp by the long-eared people. In this case, what if they went forward and found that the area was already full of long-eared people?

Then wouldn’t he be dead?

So the team leader categorically rejected it:

“No, we still have more time.”

After saying that, the team leader felt his heart skip a beat. Then he quickly looked at the captain out of the corner of his eye.

The other party just nodded and said indifferently:

“Okay, you are the customer, you have the final say, but first of all, if you want to take care of some space, you will have to pay for it.”

The team leader kept thinking about whether the other party was asking questions intentionally or unintentionally, but there was no flaw in his face and he said after a brief hesitation:

“If the money you ask for is reasonable, I can agree to it, but I must be present during the negotiation.”

The captain shrugged upon hearing this and said, “I am a man of integrity. Don’t worry, I won’t cheat you out of your pocket.”

With that said, he left the cabin.

Watching the other party’s leaving figure, the leader was suspicious for a while before making a cautious gesture to his subordinates.

On the captain’s side, the captain immediately smiled and licked his lips after coming out.

Obviously he would rather give more gold coins to hurry, but he is not willing to take the express line of the Merchant Alliance.

Haha, you lied to me that you only caught a down-and-out aristocratic lady, tsk tsk, you really think I’m stupid!

These people clearly caught someone with long ears! And look at the pressure depth of the wheel axle, there are at least two inside!

No, considering that the body of an elf is lighter than that of a human woman, it cannot be said to be three!

Is this enough for him to exchange for a retired military boat? Scarce elves are very valuable!

These long-eared people are elegant beings that nobles strive to imitate. If there is a chance to reduce them to playthings, then many nobles are willing to spend huge amounts of gold coins for it!

But after thinking about this, he hesitated for a while.

Is he going to take action?

He was indeed involved in smuggling, but it was obvious that only Saragans had a formal way of trading slaves. He, a layman, would be severely punished if he came to do this.

But if he was asked to give up right now, he was reluctant to give up. Because he felt that he had seen his new airship waving to him!

He really couldn’t bear to part with that luxurious and solid deck, advanced artillery, and solid military craftsmanship!

Now that he has this thing, he can act like a hammer and become an air thief!

Although the captain is currently just a small smuggler, his ultimate dream is to become a famous air pirate general on the lists of major empires!

But if he were to buy and sell it himself, he might not be able to sell it at such a price.

How to do it? Thinking about it.

The captain just came up with an idea that he thought was genius.

I heard that the Grand Duke of Nuremberg has been very troubled by the elves recently, so if I can send three elves for him to vent his anger at this time, wouldn’t I have a chance to directly get an active military airship? !

Ah, what a genius I am!

After rubbing your hands. The captain just gestured to the first mate, who immediately nodded understandingly.

–

In Feilengcui, after several days of sailing, Mo Zuo also successfully arrived at Feilengcui. Mozzo did not rush directly to Nuremberg or the Forest of the Sacred Tree.

He wanted to get some real first-hand information from the Iron Bank.

For example, why did the elves fight with the merchant alliance this time? It would be great if we could further obtain the military defense maps of the elves.

After showing his platinum badge again, Mozo returned to the room where he and Audrey visited last time.

I also managed to see the Holy Maiden of the Iron Bank and her puppet maid here.

Looking at Mo Zuo in front of her, the iron bank saint Lola Lisi said teasingly while drinking the black tea poured by the maid:

“You are actually alone. I thought you would bring the beautiful lady from last time with you.”

Mo Zuo smiled and said:

“She still had something to do, so I came here alone.”

Just kidding, among the three girls, Audrey Mozzo would never dare to bring her here.

168 Prophecy of the Return of the Sun (4k)

Laura Ritz also shrugged and put down the antique coffee cup in her hand. To be honest, Mozo thought this cup looked familiar, but he couldn’t remember its origin.

As if noticing Mozo’s eyes, Laura Lisi said with a smile:

“You seem to be a little interested in this cup? To be honest, this is also one of my favorite collections, because it was once the tea set of the heretic witch! It is said that the wrong witch used her own ability to fabricate it from the long river of time. I bought this unique tea set. Well, if you are interested, I can’t help but part with it.”

Witch’s stuff?

Can I have this?

Mozo immediately shook his head like a rattle:

“No, no, I really don’t have any money left to buy such a treasure.”

Laura Lisi turned around and asked indifferently:

“So what are you doing here at this hour?”

Seeing that the other party mentioned business, Mo Zuo also said:

“The main thing is that I want to buy some information from you.”

Iron Bank’s business is all-encompassing. Although they maintain absolute neutrality, they can do many things that they cannot do in theory as long as you pay.

Because they are the ‘church’ of businessmen. ‘Doing business a little bit out of the ordinary’ is the tacit acceptance of all high-ranking people.

After all, they occasionally need a little help from the Iron Bank.

Laura Lisi nodded and asked with a smile in her eyes:

“I wonder what you want to buy?”

Mozo said directly:

“I want to know why the elves launched this war, and I also want to know the detailed defense plan of the elves’ troops.”

Laura Lisi also said without hesitation:

“We have today’s first-hand intelligence on the latter, which is very accurate. The elves don’t bother to hide their whereabouts, but I’m not sure whether their advance speed will drastically change this defense map in a short time.”

“As for the former, even we have only found some vague gossip, and its authenticity cannot be confirmed at all. After all, the elves are too exclusive.”

This made Mozo a little disappointed, but it was not in vain. He turned to ask:

“What’s your price for this?”

The corners of Laura Lisi’s mouth and eyes became more and more raised, which made her beautiful face look like a fox inexplicably at this moment.

“Because one is a defense map that will be out of date at any time, and the other is unreliable gossip, so the asking price will not be too high. For example, what do you think of 4,999 Duze gold coins?”

Such an answer made Mo Zuo take a deep look at the other party.

The last time he sold the newly unearthed authentic Sun King to the other party was five thousand Duze gold coins. But now she actually reduced the price by one Duze gold coin.

The meaning is obvious. Laura Ritz is hinting that his so-called authentic painting of the Sun King is now only worth one gold coin!

This girl is actually still thinking about this matter, even though Mo Zuo had almost forgotten about it.

But since the other party played like this, Mozuo also raised the corners of his mouth and eyes at the same time and said:

“It’s unfortunate that I don’t have so many gold coins with me, but I may be able to provide you with the equivalent.”

This made Laura Lisi’s heart beat slightly for a moment, and she intuitively felt that there seemed to be a pit in it.

However, it is impossible for Tiejin Bank to reject the reasonable demands of customers.

So Laura Lisi could only ask with a forced smile:

“I wonder what you want to exchange for it?”

Mozuo immediately coughed and said apologetically:

“Actually, last time I not only found the Sun King’s authentic signature on that Sequence Three person. I also hid a piece of the Storm King’s Codex in case of emergencies!”

The puppet lady, who had been standing behind Laura Lisi with her eyes closed and her hands closed, couldn’t help but look up at Mo Zuo.

And Laura Lisi reluctantly said with a corner of her mouth:

“Isn’t your Storm King’s original painting as new as the last one and looking like a fake?”

Mo Zuo immediately said righteously:

“How can you subjectively guess the authenticity of something that has not been authenticated? Besides, didn’t you also earn a high price?”

As he spoke, he took out the Storm King’s Notes that he had just written last week.

“Look, this time it’s not as new as last time.”

He looked at the Storm King’s Notes handed over by Mozo, which also had no problem with the handwriting. Laura Liz finally couldn’t help but covered her face and said in pain:

“Yes, the new one last time seems to have been written just now, and the new one this time seems to have been written last week.”

It is also a contradiction that the false cannot exist within the false and the true cannot exist within the true…

And being unable to distinguish between true and false things is a huge torture for Laura Lisi!

Mozuo appreciated the opponent’s pain with satisfaction, and did not forget to touch up the damage and said:

“How about it, are you going to accept it? If not, I still have it here.”

Hearing that this guy seemed to be coming up with something torturing, Lola Lisi hurriedly pressed down on the Storm King’s Codex and gritted her teeth and said:

“I agree!”

Mozzo immediately stopped reaching for his hand. If the other party did not agree, he also had the autographs of Saint John and several other important figures.

“Since you agree, what about my information?”

Laura Lisi looked at the Storm King’s Codex in her hand with a complicated expression. After looking up and down for a long time, she sighed and put it away.

At the same time, he also received a defense map from the maid:

“This is the general defense map of the elves, because they have already advanced to Nuremberg, so if Nuremberg is not captured in a short time, there should not be any big changes to this defense map.”

“As for the war between the elves, I can only say that there are currently three rumors that are somewhat credible. Please listen carefully, I am just saying it once.”

“The first one is that there are high-level officials in the Merchant Alliance who intend to cooperate with the Saragan people to steal elves as slaves. And it seems that a group of elite slave-catching teams are already active in the surrounding areas. That’s why the elves went berserk and attacked the east. .”

“The second one is that there seems to be a high-level believer of an evil god who bewitched the elves. This led him to launch this invasion. It is said that the purpose is to resurrect the evil god.”

“As for the third one, this is a bit interesting. Some slaves who escaped from the areas occupied by the elves have been spreading rumors that the elves are trying to resurrect the Sun King!”

Of the three theories, the first one struck Mozo as the most likely, because the Saragans had a history of poaching elves and the people from the Merchant Alliance had a really bad reputation. But the saints of the Iron Bank say that this is just a rumor, and I am afraid that there is really no actual evidence for this.

The second one, Mo Zuo, felt that it was purely groundless conjecture. It was probably an orthodox believer from the Holy See who was throwing dirty water on the cultists. That Ra is not someone who can be bewitched by cultists.

Or how could there be a cultist who could use the light of the twin holy trees to bewitch the elves?

As for the third one, although Mo Zuo felt that it could only be the uninformed people at the bottom making exaggerated conjectures based on their own knowledge. But it really made his heart skip a beat.

Because this seems to be something that elves can really do.

But from common sense, this should be impossible. The high lords all know that the death of the Sun King is inevitable.

After a short silence, Mozo said to Laura Lisi:

“I wonder if you are interested in going to Nuremberg?”

This made the maid look straight at Mozo. Nuremberg was the front line!

The identity of the Holy Maiden of the Iron Bank is very transcendent, and she is absolutely neutral and no one will take the initiative to attack her.

But cannonballs don’t have eyes.

The elves are not a race that will stop fighting because of Lola Lisi’s identity.
