Chapter 1012: 994 Francis

Chapter 1012 994.Francis

Lan En is quite familiar with this kind of gang structure, the Beggars Gang.

I learned about it when I was watching martial arts TV series when I was a child.

Given the social governance capabilities of the feudal era, beggars were bound to appear, and connecting these people was a huge network.

To ordinary people, beggars are a useless group of human waste.

But things like people can produce high value as long as they are used correctly.

Even if he is a beggar.

But it seems that in this magical Middle Ages, no one has this awareness.

It may also be that the urban population is not up to standard, and there is no soil for the birth of this kind of organizational structure.

After all, the capital of Aedirn, Vengerburg, has a permanent population of only 6,000. This is already the capital of one of the four northern countries.

 Without enough people, there won’t be enough trade and entanglements, so the news won’t be that valuable, and it won’t be that cost-effective to organize people like beggars to listen to the news.

After the psychological defense was crushed, he said everything in a panic, as if he was afraid that his head would collapse along with it.

"We are a mud gang, living in the civilian area of ​​Novigrad. The boss is Skech! This method was organized by one of the boss's men! He originally wanted to hide, but a beggar snitched to the boss. It’s become known to everyone!”

He also figured out from this: the future can be discussed later, but now he has to survive first before he can have a future.

Even if the city is underpopulated, there may not be enough beggars.

Even a little afraid that I said something late or missed something.

“No, that’s not right! Dear Sir, it’s us!!”

He guessed wrong. Lan En didn't care about this idea or the profits it could bring.

“Has the investigation yielded any results?”

An emerging, newly discovered intelligence path and profit-making method. In order to ensure the originality and leading edge of this method, it is natural for gangs to silence people.

".yes?"

The leader of the gangsters didn't understand why anyone would care about a halfling who was running away to avoid debts in the face of this news, and his tone even became a little uncertain because of this.

Lan's face was very calm under the hood, but he tightened his grip a little and put more force on the wall.

Just now, when Lan En pressed the head of the gangster leader and asked him about Dudu, the man did not dare to hesitate at all. Even though his mouth was pressed so crooked that he could not speak, he still whimpered with his throat to express his cooperation.

On the northern continent, perhaps Novigrad has developed to this point, and someone finally realized that this kind of gameplay can be played in a city of this size.

“Let me go, my lord! My dear! That’s all I know! Really! If you want to make a name for yourself this way, it’s absolutely fine!”

This is also known as insufficient ‘urbanization’.

But when Lan En brought the topic to their cooperative relationship with the beggar, he hesitated.

Not only did he acknowledge this emerging organizational structure, he even directly poured out his own gang information, and even Jieba was cured.

The gangster leader immediately developed uncontrollable fear under the pressure. He seemed to hear the sound of his skull slowly deforming.

“You guys from the Mud Gang think that Dudu owes you money, so you should have investigated him, right?”

“Yes! Yes sir! That’s what it is! You saw it right away! It’s absolutely true!”

“Should there be? Ah! No! There must be! Our boss must have it!”

I felt something was wrong with the pressure on my head in time, and the leader's eye-catching skills reached the peak of his career at this moment.

He spoke quickly while suppressing a scream of terror.

“Heh, heh heh.”

It's just that the acquaintances who greeted him were a little strange. This guy's smile seemed a little fake today.

Looking at the big man and woman leading behind him, people just looked at them a few more times.

Everyone knows that Marsh is a person trusted by the boss in the Mud Gang. I don’t know what happened recently, but his work is getting smoother and smoother, and his reputation is getting bigger and bigger.

Who knows what’s going on with the big man and woman behind? Maybe it has something to do with the boss?

Triss now has a braid. Without the use of magic, everyone would just think that she is a hot beauty.

After passing through an archway between two streets, a group of people seemed to be heading in the same direction. The leading bald man started to approach after taking a look here.

“Hello, Marsh.”

The bald man spoke first.

His face is not pretty, and he is a bit serious with his bald head. He is wearing a leather jacket and breeches suitable for action, as well as a small leather bag, a dagger and other accessories.

“Hello to you, Francis Beran.”

Marsh responded dryly.

But the bald man still glanced at Marsh in surprise, as if he didn't expect the other party to actually respond to him, which caught him off guard.

“Uh oh.”

He blinked, but quickly adjusted and returned to the topic.

"Marsh, Boss Skechers asked you to collect the debt from the halfling, but I don't think the two behind you look like the halfling's buddies, nor do they look like the unlucky ones involved in this matter. Whatever. It’s not wise to threaten people.”

“Boss Skechers only cares about money. I’m doing this for your own good. Don’t bring worthless people to the boss, he will get angry.”

 Lan En noticed the man named Francis Beland, who was looking away vaguely while speaking.

That amuses him.

Because this guy seems to be the leader of the Mud Gang like Marsh. He seems to think that Lan En and the others are the unlucky guys who were coerced by Marsh to do business.

Now I want to get Lan and Triss out of this matter.

The gang members actually have some sympathy. Is there some kind of gangster script going on here?

If he hadn't vaguely sensed the other person's emotions, Lan En would almost have thought he had seen the other person's eyes wrong.

But Marsh himself is actually the one who wants to ‘pick out’ the two people behind him the most right now.

It's a pity that I can't pick it.

The skull still feels a bit deflated now.

“Mind your own business, Francis. You should mind your own business now.”

Marsh said stiffly.

Francis Belland's situation in the gang seemed to be dire.

Although he seems to want to pick out innocent people, he still has to take care of his own safety first.

So just at the end, he looked at the two people led by Marsh behind him with a vague look of pity, and then returned to the leading position of the group of people he led without saying anything.

After he walked away, Marsh trembled and whispered to Lan En beside him without daring to turn his head.

The voice was as soft as breathing, but Marsh already knew that the creature next to him, who didn't know whether it was a human or something else, could definitely hear it clearly.

“He was the one who first thought of taking advantage of the beggar, my lord.”

"But when I discovered something was wrong with him, Boss Skechers only spent two crowns to find out about it from a beggar."
