Chapter 42 Satisfied
Negotiate the price with satisfaction and be patient.
Roning is very patient. After all, he holds the chips and has the advantage.
However, he also knew that one thousand gold coins was indeed too high a price, and the other party would probably not be willing to pay even if they had the money.
So, he will also slowly lower it.
After a lot of back and forth and two glasses of cold water, the two sides finally reached a consensus -
There were six hundred eight gold coins, three male black buffaloes, and ten female black buffaloes.
Ronin took the pen and signed his name on the parchment with a lingering smile on his face.
"Please tell Baron Leisen that I promise no one else will know about this!"
Feridon took the signed parchment, took out the bag of gold coins from his arms, and handed it to Ronin: "Sir, there are 600 gold coins in it."
Obviously, the most Baron Leisen gave was six hundred gold coins.
As he spoke, Feridon took out eight more gold coins from his pocket and added them in. This was his own private money, which he had paid in advance.
The moment he got the purse, the long-lost words appeared before Roning's eyes:
["Lucky Fortune" achievement achieved, attribute points +20, energy essence +40]
"My Lord, please count them."
Luo Ning chuckled and put the money bag aside. "No need to count it. I have never doubted your credibility, Sir!"
Feridon couldn't laugh at all.
Not only did he give away all the 600 gold coins prepared by Baron Leisen, but he also paid out eight gold coins himself!
"I will send two followers to deliver the cows you just talked about tomorrow."
Feridon cursed in his heart but maintained his posture and bowed, saying, "Well, Feridon will say goodbye to you, my Lord!"
"Don't ~"
Luo Ning grinned and said, "I'll have someone prepare lunch right away. Sir, you must stay."
"Lord Leisen is about to leave for Black Python City to celebrate Earl Orson Hyde's birthday. I have to hurry back to report. Lord Luo Ning, please don't blame me."
In fact, Lei Sen left in the morning. He just found a reasonable reason to leave.
However, this reason made Roning alert.
This Baron Leisen is still connected with the border earl Hyde family?
Then, he must be more vigilant in the future.
Luo Ning stopped trying to persuade me to stay. "In that case, I won't force you to stay. Please give my regards to Baron Leisen!"
With his warm farewell, Feridon and his squire knights left the castle, mounted their horses and galloped away.
Luo Ning also secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
After this incident, it can be guaranteed that Lord Sean will not cause trouble for him for at least a period of time.
Moreover, Baron Leisen has gone to Black Python City to celebrate his birthday, and I'm afraid he won't be back for ten days or half a month.
Even if we want to deal with him, we have to wait for Lei Sen to return. After all, Feridon is just a canonized knight and cannot make the decision to attack the nobles.
"Congratulations, sir, on receiving such a large sum of gold coins!" McKen congratulated with a smile.
"Haha, this is all thanks to us having a good neighbour!"
Luo Ning was very happy. "Tell someone to inform Bob and Ma Sai that they don't need to deliver the letter. Oh, remember to burn the letter."
"Yes, Sir. I will go and inform you right away."
"Wait a minute."
Roning shouted. He summoned McKen's attribute interface, consumed all 40 energy essences he had received, and increased the opponent's knight level progress to 135/200.
The feeling of becoming stronger made McKen feel comfortable all over. He didn't expect that after becoming stronger in the morning, he would become stronger again within a few hours.
"Thank you for the gift, sir!"
Roning patted the other man on the shoulder and said, "Go ahead and train me a few more professional knights like David."
He can add points to McCann and Elrond, but he can't add points to David and his group.
Those who want to become extraordinary professionals need to work hard on their own, and the same applies if they want to improve their strength level.
Therefore, David and his team need to train, compete, and fight to become even stronger.
McCann can fill this role very well.
"McCann will definitely give it his all!"
The guard officer saluted solemnly as a knight, then left with great enthusiasm.
Luo Ning called up the attribute panel, added points to himself, and walked towards the study.
After a burst of pleasure brought by the sudden increase in mental power, Ronin's magician progress reached 126/150.
"I only need to gain 24 more attribute points, and I can break through and become an intermediate professional!"
After obtaining the gold coins from Sen Territory, Ronin now has three channels to obtain attribute points:
Monthly sign-in, first-time recharge gift, achievement of master.
In the next six days, he can only gain six attribute points through monthly sign-in;
In addition to being able to summon a professional knight with the aptitude for arrogance, the first recharge gift also includes a luxurious gift package, which Roning estimates will contain attribute points.
In addition to these two, the last one is the achievement master interface.
Roning looked over.
At this time, the [Good Fortune] achievement is the same as the previous [Master of Killing] achievement. After completing the first stage, it also advances to a new stage.
[Good Fortune]: Get 1,000 gold coins at one time, rewards: attribute points +50, energy essence +100.
Compared with the first stage, this time, Ronin needs to get 1,000 gold coins at one time.
Although Ronin's current savings have exceeded one thousand gold coins, this does not mean that making money is so easy.
Of these gold coins, more than 900 were given to him by Wushan Castle, Lake Town, and Sean Lord, and the rest were all taken from people, such as the magician Pedro, Princet, and so on.
He really earned it...
Sorry, not a single cent.
"It's such a headache to make money no matter which world you go to!"
Luo Ning currently knows of only one source of wealth for Shanlin Town, and that is selling grain.
According to Feridon, a lot of food has been sent to Sen Territory over the years.
Now that Roning no longer needs to pay "tribute" to Sean, he can naturally sell the extra grain produced every year.
But food doesn't make as much money as the horses in the Horse Ranch City and the black buffaloes in the Sean Territory.
You can only make 30 gold coins by selling 10,000 kilograms of barley.
If he wants to make 1,000 gold at once by selling big, he needs to prepare 330,000 barley.
How could Shanlin Town have so much barley for sale?
Obviously, this road was not accessible.
"I don't know if Hillwood Town has any specialities!"
Arriving at the study, Roning sat on a chair and looked through the books on the desk (there weren't many, actually), but it was a pity that Princet didn't leave any introduction to the products of Hillwood Town.
"I need to inspect the territory."
Luo Ning has made up his mind to inspect the territory in the next two days, and he is also preparing to recruit political officials from Shanlin Town.
At this stage, he can lower his expectations of civil servants. He does not require them to have any governance capabilities. He only needs them to convey his ideas and complete the tasks he assigns conscientiously and responsibly.
"It doesn't matter if you are a serf or a freeman. As long as you can read and have a little logic, you can sign up."
Luo Ning planned to wait until Chahar had recruited servants for the castle before asking him to issue a recruitment notice for political officials.
In addition to these two things, he also needed to go to the Horse Herder City to buy the magic crystal before Baron Leisen came back to celebrate his birthday.
