Originally, as the core area of Antony harbor, the port area is the lifeblood of the whole city. It is impossible for the poor to roam here, let alone build tents and simple shacks without permission.
However, with the support of paladins, no officials or nobles want to come here to get bad luck. In less than a month, four officers have been arrested and convicted by paladins.
The soldiers below are even more miserable. Every time they see the paladin, they go far around. The management of the port area is basically in the state of stocking.
The continuous gathering of the poor has obviously affected the normal order of the port area. The traffic jam and garbage accumulation make the workers working in the port area miserable.
Fishermen who secretly drive small fishing boats to fish nearby often collide with merchant ships. Because of the samurai's reason, the merchants who occasionally incarnate as pirates in the open sea usually calm down and compensate some of the money to the fishermen.
This kind of behavior rose quickly among the poor, and porcelain bumping became a professional business. In a few weeks, a strict organization was formed.
On the one hand, he saw the poor people struggling to survive in order to survive, on the other hand, he also saw the bad nature of these people.
They need education and guidance. Only labor is the ultimate solution to all poverty. In the final analysis, there are so many chaos because some people always want to get something for nothing or get more with less work.
The nobles in the city are constantly complaining that the long-term stationing of paladins requires them to prepare a banquet every day to prevent the paladin's fragile mind from being stimulated by extravagance.
The young samurai's son can't be arrested for five weeks.
It's no use asking for help. People are still throwing stones on the paladin's private plot outside the city. The old Baron almost hanged because of this.
Antoine is living a life of ascetic every day, and the business share of the port area is declining. The huge trading volume originally generated by the cooperation with pirates disappeared with the deterioration of the relationship between Antoine and pirate marma. In addition, due to the paladin, the transaction volume in this quarter is only one third of that in the last quarter.
The share of the aristocratic Council can not be reduced. The subordinate nobles are complaining that their business has been affected every day. It is Antoine himself who is the biggest sufferer.
He's starting to miss the demon hunter now.
The cooperation between smart people and smart people is always pleasant, because both sides will have a tacit understanding to leave enough interests for each other.
But the paladin Legion is different. They don't talk about interests, they only talk about faith. Worldly wealth is meaningless to them.
Antoine rubbed his temples and felt that his weight had dropped to a new level, and his hairline had stepped back to the danger line.
"Crack!" A live fish was thrown into the study, and Antoine rolled under the desk.
He has practiced this movement for a long time and has achieved initial results.
"Who is it?" Antoine's small eyes came out of the back of the desk and scanned the study carefully, only to see a corner of his daughter's skirt outside the door.
"Juliet Antoine wiped the sweat from his forehead: "I see you! Come out! I know you want to go out, but it's no use scaring Dad! I don't agree with you with that poor man! Unless he can come up with a million, no, 500000, forget it, 100000 gold coins! "
"Dad, look at that fish. Marx said you'd better understand that this is the main food source for ordinary people in the city at present." Juliet refused to show up and hid outside the door and said to Antoine, "Marx also said that you'd better talk to the people in the church about this."
Antoine looked at the struggling fish on the ground with some doubts. He didn't know what the mystery was. Soon he widened his eyes.
After struggling on the floor for a long time, the fish seemed to lose their strength and succumb to the air. However, as some small tentacles of the gills extended out and secreted mucus, the fish seemed to be revived.
As a coastal city, the nobles seldom eat seafood. They think it is the food of fishermen, and it is not suitable to appear on the noble table.
The paladins and clergymen of the church are even more extraordinary, and they seldom eat seafood.
Antoine can't even remember when he last saw a live fish, but he's sure that those little tentacles should not be what the fish should grow.
These little tentacles remind him of some bad memories. The last blood of Anthony's family and the appearance of count Antony after he took refuge in chaos has always been Antoine's nightmare.
"This..." Antoine pointed to the fish on the ground and said with some trembling, "it's not what I think it is?"
"Marx said that you can't solve this problem, you'd better give it to Lord Richard directly. If you can't see Lord Richard, let the paladin expeditionary army deal with it." Juliet showed half her face and looked at Antoine, worried and said, "Dad, Marx says that now there are ordinary people in Anthony harbor who are using this fish as food.""I see." Antoine's face was gray, but he calmed down: "this is not something you should be involved in. Forget about it."
After a pause, Antoine said again, "I repeat, don't associate with that poor man until he has 100000 gold coins!"
after looking at the fish on the ground, the fat man added: "maybe he is a transcendent, I can also consider the relationship between you two."
The fat man called the guards, wrapped the fish tightly in cotton cloth, and prepared a carriage to go all the way to the original retribution Castle outside the city.
It has been several weeks since pastor Richard closed the temple of God of war. Antoine knew that he didn't have so much face, so he went directly to Dale silvos, commander of the paladin Legion.
However, he was doomed to be disappointed, for Dale Schwartz had taken most of his fleet along the sea to pursue the retribution Corps.
What he didn't know was that the Pirate Queen mama was less than half a day away from the port where the retribution regiment had docked.
"Are you sure what they have is worth so much money?" Marma sat on her Iron Throne, and since her capture of the black ship, she has made the scarlet shroud her new flagship.
The black ship and the Black Iron Throne are more in tune, which makes Mama very satisfied.
"I'm sure..." the man on the wooden shelf replied weakly www.novelhold.com , the fastest update of the webnovel!
