  Chapter 62 Van Cleef

   "Van Cleef wants to talk to me?" It's no surprise that David asked Fording to help recruit Van Cleef and other craftsmen. As the leader of the craftsmen, Van Cleef must know who invited him and others, right? It is reasonable to ask to meet and talk: "Now?"

  From a certain point of view, it is much better for the other party to be willing to talk to David than to just ignore him. Of course, there is another possibility that the opponent can't beat Fording and has to talk to David face to face.

   "He said anytime in the last few days."

"If he thinks it's okay, he can do it now." David looked outside, the weather was cool after heavy rain just now, such a day is especially suitable for entertaining guests at home: "But, is Van Cleef willing to come here? "

   Isn't he worried about some conspiracy? Ever since being tricked by the nobles of Stormwind City, Van Cleef has become extremely cautious. Under such circumstances, how did Fording persuade the other party to come to Cold Winter Village to talk to David face to face?

"Prove to him with strength that I don't need those conspiracies and tricks to kill him." Fording's answer is very convincing. It is not difficult to wipe out the Defias Brotherhood with his strength. Rogues everywhere are a waste of time.

   With the ability to kill Van Cleef just by waving his hands, it proves that he really didn't want to kill you without doing anything.

Although Van Cleef has done a lot of crazy things after establishing the Defias Brotherhood, his IQ is still online, otherwise he would not have caused enough harm to the nobles of Westfall and Stormwind City, and caused the nobles of Stormwind City to suffer. This resulted in a heavier economic loss than paying full wages at the beginning.

   What's more, Van Cleef is a person who can complete the training of SI7 in the Kingdom of Stormwind. It is impossible for such a smart person not to realize this.

   After tidying up the table, preparing tea and snacks, David casually opened a notebook that had already written a lot of content, and continued to write on it.

This is the textbook for learning the common language of Azeroth that has been agreed a long time ago. Since he and Laura set up a division of labor, he has been writing this thing intermittently during this period, and it is almost finished now. I just don't know what answer Van Cleef will give?

   "I hope I can use it!" Waste is not a waste, after a few years after the fall of Lordaeron, those refugees will still be able to use it, but David still hopes to make this "textbook" come in handy as soon as possible.

   Just as he was thinking, the door was knocked several times.

   "Come in!"

  The door opened, and Fording walked in with a strong man who was not much thinner than Fording, the paladin.

  The brawny man was wearing black leather armor and had black hair. If it weren't for the red face scarf hanging around his neck, his whole body would seem to blend in with black.

  A pair of long knives were stuck in the man's waist. David knew that they were a pair of weapons called cruel barbs, and they were also Edwin Van Cleef's side weapons.

  David was looking at Van Cleef, and Edwin Van Cleef was also looking at David. Perhaps David's young appearance was a bit beyond his expectations, so he showed a little surprise when he entered the door.

  But he quickly hid his surprise, and carefully observed David's figure and the surrounding environment.

"Do you need me to take off the weapon?" Van Cleef looked at the narrow environment in the room, and then deliberately glanced at David with disdainful eyes. This professionally trained thief, or assassin, used a little Provocative method.

  In his opinion, a young man may make irrational judgments because of being slighted, such as not having him hand over his weapon.

  To Van Cleef's surprise, David gave an answer that he hadn't thought of: "Nice to meet you, Mr. Van Cleef, if you think it's in the way, you can put the weapon aside."

   At the same time, he also asked Van Cleef to sit down, inviting Van Cleef to sit opposite him.

Van Cleef thought for a while, then took off the cruel barb on his waist and placed it by the door, as if to express his sincerity—in fact, he has determined through observation that this small space is not suitable for using weapons, and he feels that David With a 'slender' figure, he should not be good at melee combat, so even if he doesn't use a weapon, he will not be in danger.

   Sitting in front of David, Van Cleef didn't mean to introduce himself. Since the other party found him specifically, he must have a detailed understanding of him. On the contrary, who is the opposite person and what is his identity? He knew nothing but that this young man could command that powerful paladin.

  Thinking of this, Van Cleef carefully glanced at Fording next to him. This powerful paladin was sitting on the bed beside him, holding a book in his hand and reading there.

"Hello, I am David, the village head of Cold Winter Village. Welcome to my village." David knew that the other party was waiting for him to speak, and after motioning for the other party to drink the tea and desserts on the table casually, he introduced himself simply Opening: "Mr. VanCleef, what do you think of my village?"

   "This village called Cold Winter Village?" Although Van Cleef was brought into this room as soon as he arrived here, this did not affect his observation of the surrounding environment in the shortest possible time. What's more, Lindong Village is not big at first, and you can see it clearly with a few glances: "With all due respect, this is a very small village."

   "Yes, there are only more than 30 people in Lindong Village including me. It is indeed a very small village, but what do you think of the environment here?"

   "..." Van Cleef didn't answer, he was actually a little confused, what exactly did the other party want to do with him?

   It's not that he didn't suspect that this was a trap, but the power of the paladin next to him made him give up this possibility.

  So it's really like what the other party said, just want to invite yourself to work in the village? Could it be that this young man wants to let himself and those old guys work for him for nothing like the nobles in Stormwind City?

   There was a burst of brainstorming in his head, which raised the most painful scar in his heart, and even his emotions became a little wrong, and the eyes he looked at David became sharper.

When David noticed the change in Van Cleef's eyes, he guessed that this guy might have misunderstood. He didn't want to deepen the misunderstanding, so he immediately explained a few words: "Mr. Van Cleef, I think you may have misunderstood something! I I sincerely invite you and those craftsmen to come to Rinwinter Village."

   "Oh?" Van Cleef was still skeptical about this.

   "It's not just coming to Cold Winter Village to work, I very much hope that you can come to Cold Winter Village to settle down and live." David noticed some doubts on Van Cleef's face, and looked strangely at Fording next to him.

"He won't care about some things even if I say them, so it's better for you to explain them yourself after you bring people over." Fording didn't look up, and continued to look at the book in his hand, but when David glanced at him After that, he immediately gave the answer: "And there were too many people around him at that time."

Fording knew that what David wanted to invite were the artisans headed by Van Cleef and their families, and he was not interested in the pirates, thieves and other social dregs of the Defias Brotherhood, including the thugs of various races hired by Van Cleef. within the scope of recruitment.

"It turned out to be like this." David understood what was going on, so he explained his thoughts in detail: I hope that Van Cleef will lead the members of the Defias Brotherhood who belonged to the Masonry Union and their families to come to the winter village life.

   After thinking about it, I remember that there are also a large number of miners in the Defias Brotherhood. This is also a talent that Cold Winter Village lacks, so I just packed it together. In the end, you can become an honest person with a clean net worth!

   It wasn't until David clearly expressed his thoughts that Van Cleef realized why this man found him.

   "You want the Defias Brotherhood to move to Winter Village?"

   "No, it's the craftsmen and their families of the Masonry Guild, and you can also count the miners and some farmers you recruited in the western wilderness. This is different from the Defias Brotherhood."

  Van Cleef didn't care about David's special emphasis, he wanted to know what David was trying to do?

"People." There is nothing to hide, and David directly stated his intentions: "Rindong Village is currently only a small village with more than 30 people. If it wants to develop, it needs more people, and the development and construction of various towns Facilities require various craftsmen."

If the Stonemasons Union is willing to join Cold Winter Village, it will not only increase the population significantly, but also make up for the current weakest link in Cold Winter Village: the current craftsmen in the Defias Brotherhood are not only stonemasons, but also proficient in forging weapons and shipbuilding. Artisans of various skills.

Since Azeroth is a world with mysterious powers, top stonemasons must understand the knowledge of mysticism. The Stormwind City built by the Stonemasons Guild for the Stormwind Kingdom has many designs to defend against mysterious powers. Parts of the design didn't work.

   But this has nothing to do with the manufacturer. The craftsmanship of the craftsmen of the Masonry Union is guaranteed. If they can be recruited, it is not difficult to build him a Winter City immediately, let alone a small town.

   "So, you want us to join Cold Winter Village and build this village for you?"

   "No!" David waved his hand: "It's for us to build a beautiful new home."

  Van Cleef originally had a stomach full of words to reject David, but at this moment, all of them were stuck in his throat, and he found that he couldn't get those words out of his mouth.

   Even Fording, who was concentrating on reading, raised his head and glanced at David again.

"What?" David looked at the two of them. He didn't expect his casual words to make them react so strongly, especially Van Cleef, the former leader of the Masons' Guild and now the Defias Brotherhood. , his face was full of tangles.

   "Nothing." Van Cleef was silent for a few seconds before returning to his previous indifferent face: "I need to think about it."
