ACT015: Employment

Unlike what Wies thought, although Kabbalah took over the "black life" that was invisible, she was indeed a senior salesperson of a serious business company. After all, the goblin, a race known for its business knowledge, has always been "all things have a price". In their eyes, whether they live black or not is a trivial matter, and the reward is the king.

Originally, after parting ways with Weis, Kabbalah had successfully arrived at the coastal Duchy of Nima (Wis was very glad that he was not born here) and was preparing to take a boat back to Zhongpanzhou there. But just as the passenger ship was about to set off, the local area head of the trading company Kabbalah belonged to suddenly found him, hoping that he could help deal with an "emergency".

The trading company to which Kabbalah belongs is called "Silver Phoenix". It is a very powerful group company in the United Kingdom of Dwarfs. It has countless subsidiaries, ranging from metallurgy, shipbuilding, catering and retail. It involves a wide range of industries. Although the president is a goblin, he is a senator of the Kingdom Parliament. Therefore, the trading company also has a certain official background.

Such a large-scale trading company says that it can be clean and clear at all "dark side" is purely nonsense. The "special dispute firm" where Kabbal is located is a department that specializes in dealing with this type of "died death in the light". They are responsible for sending people to resolve all matters that are inconvenient to the trading company.

The incident like Wiss was because the trading company took a fancy to the mining rights of a high-quality crystal mine in the Duke of Baker. While sending people to negotiate, it also secretly investigated the situation of the Duke's family and prepared some small gifts that could "subject to their preferences". Therefore, when they found that the young master of the Duke's family was almost not qualified to take any pawns, they sent Kabbalah to help him "exchange his life" so that the Duke's favor could be sold.

Unfortunately, Kabbala not only messed up the matter, but even made a "blast"! Therefore, when the district head said that there was an urgent matter of 100,000 yuan, Kabbala did not even ask about the specific matter, and then... it was a tragedy again!

The district head hopes that Kabbalah will go to the Principality of Nadal, the hinterland of Nanfengzhou, to find an engineering group that has lost contact with them. The entire engineering group consists of 20 dwarf construction engineers and 6 guards, with the purpose of providing relevant technical guidance for the expansion of the country's capital. Because the local communication methods are backward, the person in charge can only maintain contact with the engineering group every 5 to 7 days through the letter birds that travel to and from all over the country regularly.

Three weeks ago, the Bird of Letters did not arrive at the Principality of Nima as usual. Soon after, they lost contact from the areas south of the Gore Mountains. No one knew what happened on the side of the mountain. The person in charge had organized a search and rescue team to find the engineering team, but after passing the mountain, the team was like a rock sinking to the sea, disappearing without a trace, so he hoped that Kabbalah, who was of good strength, could help him.

It seemed like a very simple task, but after a rough understanding of it, Kabbala found that things seemed to be more difficult than expected. You should know that the six guards of the engineering regiment were all chess pieces owners, and there were also 8 in the search and rescue team that set out later. So many masters fell into it, Kabbala didn't think he could solve it alone. However, when he asked the person in charge for help, the other party said helplessly that he had no one under his command.

Fortunately, Kabbalah would find a way. After arriving in the Principality of Nima, he had already learned about the news that Aaron Emperor* had captured the Sunset Fortress through the trading company's intelligence network. If the other party wants to take further military actions, it must have enough "excuses" to argue with the other two countries to maintain his "just image" in the eyes of the international and the people. So what Kabbalah has to do is to take the initiative to ask for help from the emperor and then exchange for help from the other party.

At first, the Fourth Division was indeed very interested in Kabbal's request. After all, the Senate, which relied on opposing the emperor to show his presence, has been criticizing their military operation as a "barbaric act" that damages the image of the imperial civilization. Not only did it not provide any support, it also wanted to find opportunities to drag them back and make the military hate those coffins that rely on their age to the core.

The southern military region belonging to the emperor's faction was eager to continue to increase troops after substantively occupying the Duchy of White Deer. Therefore, when Kabbalah, as a third-party person, asked them for help, they felt that they could take advantage of this opportunity to organize a "search and rescue team" to help them find missing people. As for the organization of the search and rescue team, there was no problem in sending 3 or 5 reorganized divisions in the past!

However, when the excited Emperor* side asked Kabbalah where their building group was missing, the other party's answer was like a basin of cold water, which instantly cooled down their emotions that had just woken up.

The Principal of Nadal, the hinterland of the southeast of Nanfengzhou, is more than 2,000 kilometers away from the Sunset Fortress on its border alone. The ideal depth distance for the first phase of the Emperor** attack was only 500 kilometers, which is much beyond the limit that their logistics can bear. Even if they really fight, they will not be able to defend themselves, let alone digest it.

In this way, Kabbalah was brutally "placed PLAY" by the Emperor. Even the commander of the Fourth Division, Sean Renault, who was smiling at the beginning, turned him out on the grounds of busy military affairs, and gave him face without driving him out of the fortress. However, just when Kabbalah felt very disappointed, he accidentally passed by the door of the special prisoner-of-war camp and saw Vis.

Kabbala, who knows the "insider", knew that the other party was a poor country boy with no background and would be arrested in the special prisoner of war camp, which was 80% related to the "incorrect" identity of the owner of the chess piece and the direction of escape. Since he was in need of help, if he could "take" him out, it would be at least more reliable than recruiting mercenaries from ordinary people. So when Weis was still hesitating whether to sign a contract, Kabbala appeared in front of him in time.

"Major, can I have a chat with this kid alone?"

"Do you know him?" The officer in charge of solicitation looked at Kabbalah suspiciously.

"Yes, we have seen it in the Principality of Baker. Because he got the chess piece as a civilian, he was excluded by the country nobles in the local area. So I helped him think of a way to leave the Principality of Baker and go to Xiyanzhou to develop. I thought I might not meet it again, but I didn't expect that I would be in such a place..."

Half true and half false, Kabbal showed the quality that an old man in the world should have, his expression was calm and natural, as if he was talking about real "facts". The major seemed to resonate with Weiss' "civilian origin", and his attitude suddenly eased a lot. However, he soon thought of some eye-catching "notes" in Weiss and Ling Lan's information, and asked with a subtle expression.

"Master, since you gave them the call to Xiyanzhou, then the matter of holding Lieutenant General Lekoxi hostage was also the idea you gave them?"

"I don't understand what you are saying?" In an instant, Kabbalah felt that she seemed to hear some unpleasant words, so the major explained it to him a little, and the old goblin suddenly fell into his heart. He never thought that if he hadn't seen him for a few days, this guy kidnapped another lieutenant general, who was so brave that he was so brave!

"Uh...Is it still time for me to say I don't know him?"

“…” x3

In the end, Kabbalah came forward and made a guarantee for Weis and Ling Lan, who lost her passport in the name of the trading company. The headquarters seemed to be overwhelmed by something "hard torment". She did not care about the small problems of a "swordsman" and "swordsman". She made a hasty approval, and the two were released inexplicably.

"I really didn't expect that Master, you are so proud."

"It's not me who has face, it's our trading company. The main action of the Aaron Empire's army in recent years is to strengthen their navy, and our trading company's main business is shipbuilding. Therefore, it has very close cooperation with the empire's official government. With this banner, it's not a problem to catch you two kidnappings. Speaking of which, you are not easy! You haven't seen each other for a few days, and you have kidnapped such a beautiful girl. You can still ask someone to play kidnapping with you. You are very good at it!"

"...I said let's talk about what you want to do if you pick us up. If it's too difficult, I think it's still time for me to go back now."

"Of course it's not difficult. I just want you to accompany me to Nadal... Damn, listen to me first!"

When he heard that he was going to Nadal, Weiss turned around and returned to the prisoner-of-war camp on the spot. He knew very well that he had set out from the White Deer and wanted to go to Nadal, almost inevitably had to pass Baker. He finally escaped from the ghost place and said he would not dare to go back. For this reason, Kabballa persuaded him for a long time but it didn't work.

"If you don't go, if you don't go, you won't go! I'll sign a contract to be a magic... No, go to be an emperor."

"Okay! If you want to go to the 'Western Meat Grinder' to die, then I won't stop you, so I won't leave!"

"Wait a minute! What did you say just now? Western meat grinder!?" When Weis, who heard the other party say a very bloody noun and was about to walk back, stopped and looked back at Kabbal with a puzzled look on his face, while the other party sneered and explained to him.

"Do you think that contract is very generous and you are very moved when you see it? The Empire is like a fool who is a fool, and you are looking for the old man to serve you? Let me tell you, there is no free lunch in the world, and it doesn't seem long to serve for three years, but when they send you to the Western Front, can you survive the first three months? It's unknown." Shaking three fingers exaggeratedly, Kabbal poked Weis' belly with his finger (he couldn't reach his shoulder), and then explained to him.

The Oss Mountains are the most complex mountainous area with the terrain of Xiyanzhou and also a conflict zone where the forces of the Three Kingdoms intertwined. Because they do not have the geographical conditions for large-scale mechanized troops to fight, the Three Kingdoms deployed elite mountain troops mainly chess piece owners around them, and cruel small-scale conflicts are constantly occurring every day. The most exaggerated record is that the Three Kingdoms once killed a total of 150 chess piece owners in a week, and this is how the name of the "meat grinder" comes from.
