Chapter 423 Mercenaries
Chapter 423 Mercenaries
Kylo picked up the candlestick on the table and was about to smash it on Alexander's head: "You..."
"Hey, we are brothers from the same father and mother," Alexander reminded.
Hearing this, Kylo swallowed back the curse words that were about to come out of his mouth. He took a few deep breaths, calmed down a little, and said to Alexander: "After we became independent, we each received the first assets from our father. I have no obligation to help you."
Alexander nodded: "You make a lot of sense, but I don't intend to listen."
"You..." Kylo raised the candlestick in his hand again, and this time he smashed it down heavily, but Alexander easily caught it and put it back on the table.
Kailuo said in a state of collapse: "I will not give you any food. If you have the guts, kill me!"
Alexander shook his head: "You are my brother, I will not hurt you."
"I won't give you food anyway!"
"So I plan to do as we did when we were kids. I'll follow you wherever you go and I'll grab whatever you eat."
"You are an adult, how can you still be so shameless?!"
"Dad said that the most important thing is to feed your own stomach."
Hearing this, Kailuo remembered something: "You can't even eat enough, what about your city guards?"
Alexander spread his hands and said calmly, "I don't have anything to eat, so of course they will be hungry too."
Kai Luo's face showed astonishment: "Do you know how serious it is to let your own city guards starve? You still have time to come here and act like a rogue?!"
Alexander said, "Dad said that the second most important thing is to feed his men. You see, even Dad thinks his own stomach is more important than his men's stomachs, so of course I have to make sure I have food first."
Kylo pointed a trembling finger at Alexander: "And you just came here like this?!"
"I told my men I was going to look for food."
Kailuo found another point: "You have nothing to eat, where did those two bottles of water come from?"
"After I arrived at the City Lord's Mansion, I first pried open your warehouse."
Kailuo picked up the candlestick again: "I will fight you!!!"
Alexander pinned Kylo to the table with one hand and asked in confusion, "I remember your memory isn't very good? Don't you remember that you can't beat me?"
"You might as well just kill me."
"I've already told you that you're my brother, and I won't hurt you."
"What on earth do you want to do?!"
Alexander stretched out his rough big hand and began to stroke Kylo's head, making his neat hair very messy: "I'm not as smart as you, so now I need to use your useful brain to help me think of a solution."
"I do not know what to do!"
"You always say that, but I know that if I keep pestering you for a while, you'll come up with a brilliant idea. By the way, I remember that the highest record so far is three days and three nights. Do you want to try to challenge your limits this time?"
Kylo pinched Alexander's hand fiercely: "Let me go first!"
"Oh." Alexander pulled Kylo up from the table.
Kylo glared at Alexander fiercely, opened the box on the table again, took out the animal skin inside and threw it in Alexander's face.
Alexander picked up the hide and began to look at it. After a while he asked, "You're going to give me a shop. Is there any food in the shop?"
Kai Luo grabbed the hide and started to make corrections with a pen. "The shop is empty, but you can use it as a window to the outside world, accept missions, and exchange for food. Mercenaries stationed in a place will make people feel more credible and stronger. Of course, you have 300 people, so your strength is indeed strong.
Those big chambers of commerce and nobles will be more inclined to approach you to issue tasks, which will make it easier to receive big orders and support yourself and your people.
Alexander nodded, not quite understanding, and then shook his head: "This is a solution, but I am a Bonaparte. If I become a mercenary, it will bring shame to my father and my family."
Kai Luo slapped him on the head: "Don't you remember clearly what your father said? What was the last sentence?"
Alexander scratched his head and recalled: "Other things besides filling my stomach are actually not that important. Except... except... except what?"
"Don't worry, face is not as important as your stomach anyway. You have to satisfy your stomach first before you can think about face.
Now I am giving this shop to you for your use and exempting you from taxes for the first hundred days. After that, you will have to pay taxes at the normal rate.
You must also always leave fifty men in Windward City to maintain order. I will cover the food and drink of these fifty men while they are on duty, but you will be responsible for their salaries, equipment, and training.”
Alexander smacked his lips. "I don't really understand it anyway, so let's just leave it at that. By the way, how do mercenaries get jobs?"
"Ahem!" Li Zhuoguang cleared his throat, attracting the attention of both men.
The two brothers turned and looked at Li Zhuoguang.
"I have a job here, are you interested?"
“Hahahaha!” Alexander laughed happily and patted Kylo’s back hard, almost knocking him to the ground. “Your brain is still as useful as ever. It would be great if I could tie you to my body and carry you with me.”
Kylo kicked Alexander on the butt again. Alexander scratched his butt and asked Li Zhuoguang: "What is the mission?"
Li Zhuoguang also informed Alexander of the mission assigned to the Elf Ranger. Alexander frowned and said, "Your mission sounds weird, but it doesn't matter. Mercenaries always do weird missions anyway.
I am more concerned about how much food you can give?"
Li Zhuoguang looked at Ariana. After all, he had no idea about the market situation of local mercenaries. Of course, he could only seek help from the top mercenaries who had been wandering for hundreds of years.
Aliana said: "If it were ordinary city guards..."
Alexander added: "What my father gave me are elite troops, with standard leather armor and iron weapons."
Aliana nodded, and then said to Li Zhuoguang: "If it is such an elite city guard, the price will be a little higher. I suggest you directly exchange a bucket of pure water for dry food, and then settle the bill with the dry food.
For 300 people, a 20-liter bucket of pure water can exchange for dry food for them to serve you for a month, and this is already above the market average, so you can make more detailed requests. "
Li Zhuoguang nodded and put a bucket of water with the label removed on the table: "That's it, I'll try it for a month."
Alexander was about to jump on the bucket of water when he saw it, but was stopped by Kylo: "You are crazy! I'm giving this to you in exchange for dry food."
"I know. My men and I are starving. I have to exchange it for food quickly."
"Idiot, you're in such a hurry to go out and exchange food. You'll be slaughtered like a fat chicken. Besides, can you take so much dry food?"
"What should I do?"
“Leave the water with me, and bring fifty people to the City Lord’s Mansion to carry dry food, and put it directly in the shop I gave you.
Then let them take turns to get their share, and after getting the food they can go out of the city to do the task. "
Alexander slapped his thigh and said, "Just do as you say."
