Chapter 248 The trade wind from the north (1)
Looking at the tauren who appeared under the city wall in front of him, the first two words that came to mind were refugees. шwщ138号138号竹竹竹竹竹竹竹竹竹竹竹竹竹竹竹竹竹竹竹竹竹竹竹竹竹竹竹竹竹竹竹竹竹竹竹竹竹竹竹竹竹竹竹竹竹竹竹竹竹竹竹竹竹竹竹竹竹竹竹竹竹竹竹竹竹竹竹竹竹�
The black furs that were supposed to be shiny, now they look like a mess of messy hairs, dry and forked, and they seem to be tangled together to form a bunch of hair balls. There are some blood clots on the dry hair, and Chen Kai can even see that the Tartars have many scars on the body. These scars are undoubtedly not complete from the damage to the sword to the whip marks. It can be seen that the lives of these Tartars are not as satisfactory as Chen Kai thought in the past.
Of course, they were definitely not the black-horned bullhead soldiers that Chen Kai saw at the beginning, because the aura of these bullheads made people feel like they were corpses about to enter the grave, and there was no trace of anger in the eyes of those bullheads. If it weren't for the chests of these bullheads and the nostrils were still breathing, Chen Kai would have thought that these bullheads were already corpses.
However, even though they felt that these taurens were very weak, Chen Kai still did not open the gate of Berkner Town and let these taurens enter the city. After all, the number of these taurens was a little too large. More than 1,700 taurens stood under the city wall. Even if they were very weak, they were also taurens. In the eyes of the residents of Berkner Town, the taurens are sometimes synonymous with terror. Even with the nearly 1,000 taurens in Berkner Town as a buffer, some residents have learned that the taurens are not necessarily bad people, but it will take a long time for all the taurens to integrate into the society of Berkner Town. If they have the nearly 2,000 taurens, it will be a little bit too far for the digestive ability of Berkner Town.
The most important thing is that Chen Kai is afraid of the spies who have mixed up with Zhuoer among these taurens. After all, even the old taurens can serve as the source of information transmission. Spy is not only the young and strong taurens.
So Chen Kai did not directly ask the soldiers to open the gate of Berkner Town and put the taurens into the city. Instead, he used a hanging basket to put himself down the wall first. Of course, if there were really Zoul's spies among the taurens, Chen Kai's action was also very dangerous. After all, he was the lord of Berkner Town. If he was caught, then Zouls could use his life to threaten the soldiers on the city wall to open the gate and surrender. Of course, if Chen Kai was an indigenous noble, he really needed to worry about these things, but he was not. If he was really caught, he only needed to do one thing, that was to commit suicide by wiping his neck for three hours and then he would be resurrected in the city. The only thing he had to worry about was that he might lose some gold coins or some equipment on his body.
With the sound of rope squeaking and shaking, "" the rope was filled with Chen Kai's hanging basket and slowly landed on the ground in the eyes of the taurens. Then a human taller than these taurens appeared in front of them. The moment they saw Chen Kai, many taurens were flashing with emotions called fear. The people of the Taurens themselves are already very tall, and their height of more than two meters allows them to look down on many races in the game, but facing Chen Kai, who is nearly three meters tall, they are like short men locked up in a house.
Chen Kai's body is not very wide, but even his huge height still makes Chen Kai look like a high wall. Of course, if Chen Kai is the one who has just been purified in his blood, it will become Arno's long bamboo pole. However, after nearly three or four months of exercise, Chen Kai's body has become strong again. The strong muscles make his body thin and thin, and the thin bamboo pole is not related to the situation. Therefore, Chen Kai standing there seems to be a huge iron tower. The armor worn on Chen Kai makes Chen Kai even more majestic, while Arno, who sees Chen Kai's appearance, keeps looking at Chen Kai's armor and saliva.
He had heard of the armor on Chen Kai from the black dwarf Elder Mithra. It was made by several master blacksmiths of the black dwarf. Not only did it have amazing defense, but it also had a very gorgeous appearance. But this was the first time Arnault saw a real thing.
However, although he envied Chen Kai's armor very much, if he had chosen, the iron ring armor made by Elder Mithra would be more suitable for him. After all, a good armor, in addition to the appearance of a good appearance, is the most important thing to suit the user himself. Most of the armor of the strong is tailored according to their own dressing and defense habits. For Chen Kai, the armor suitable for him may not be suitable for others. In fact, Chen Kai's current armor may not be completely suitable for him. After all, it is still difficult for him to control the two pairs of huge metal wings behind him. Although these two pairs of wings are very handsome and have extremely strong defense, he has not been able to use them as an arm to use his fingers. At critical moments, Chen Kai's chance of relying on the pair of wings behind him to save his life is better than believing that he can use the giant sword in his hand to block the opponent's attack.
"Hey! That's that! Why don't you open the door?" Arno obviously didn't respect Chen Kai much. When he was now, he looked completely different from when he left Berkner Town nearly ten days ago. The hairs on his body that had become glossy and black under He Liwen's potion were all entangled at this moment, and they looked no different from the other taurens. The only thing that was slightly better than the taurens around him was probably that he was still angry, and he was much stronger than those taurens.
"Arno! You fooled these taurens from where you did! They all looked like they were dying! I was worried that they were sick, so I didn't." "Dare to open the door. If your tribe members have all suffered from plague, don't talk about the residents of my city, even your sister might get infected!" Chen Kai pulled Arno aside and said in his ear in a very low voice. Of course, at the same time, Chen Kai's eyes kept scanning the surrounding taurens to find a spy from among them.
"They all bought this from Zoer's refugee camp!" After a long time, Arnault gave a news that shocked Chen Kai. These taurens were not fooled by him, but refugees bought from Zoer's refugee camp where they were guarding the black-horned taurens. Of course, relying on the gold coins given by Chen Kai, it was absolutely impossible to buy so many refugees. Arnault pulled Chen Kai's banner and lent a white note from the player presidents in the north and borrowed money to buy these taurens.
When Chen Kai saw the white sticks in Arno's hand, he had the urge to vomit blood. Because the loan amount stated on the white stick was as high as one million gold coins, and the monthly interest rate was as high as 10%. At that moment, Chen Kai had the urge to throw the white stick on Arno's face and then press the other party to the ground and beat him hard. Because Arno shamelessly signed Chen Kai's name on the borrower's name, of course, it was not his real name, but the name Kaichen Saint Lapston in the game. What's even more shameless is that Arno, a slut, actually imitated Chen Kai's handwriting. If Chen Kai had not heard Arno's words, he probably thought he had signed it himself the moment he saw the IOU.
Chen Kai, who had been carrying nearly one million in debt for no reason, had the urge to stab Arno with a white knife and let him bleed. When he asked the guards to open the door and let the taurens enter the city, he wanted to make more than a dozen holes in Arno. Because in Chen Kai's opinion, these more than a thousand taurens were not worth the one million gold coins. And what he cheated was that it had been five days since the IOU today, and Chen Kai had to pay at least nearly 17,000 gold coins to those who were mixed up.
In the end, Chen Kai handed over the IOU to Xu Fei and asked him to deal with this matter, because Chen Kai himself was worried that when he saw those guys who borrowed money, he would choose to draw out his huge sword and cut the other party. Of course, the moment he saw the IOU, Xu Fei also had the same urge to get crazy for a moment like Chen Kai. If Alyssa had not been sitting not far away, he would almost stand up and raise his hand and give Arno an arcane cannonball sitting in the seat.
Of course, as for why Alyssa was probably present, it was because Xu Fei was worried that the power of his arcane shell would accidentally affect Alyssa's fragile clothes. By then, the other party's clothes would be broken by accident, and Su Wan, who was cutting potatoes with a knife, would definitely throw the paring knife in her hand towards him.
So even though Xu Fei was as painful as Chen Kai, he still had to pay for Arno, the gangster. "Attiya Chapter 248: The Firm Wind from the North" Of course, Chen Kai's move to throw the IOU to Xu Fei was seen by Alyssa at that moment. Naturally, she knew from her younger brother how the more than 1,700 tribe members came. At the same time, she also knew very well that her younger brother borrowed money under Chen Kai's name. The most important thing was that it was a very huge wealth. So big that Arno almost exhausted to transport those gold coins. Such a huge wealth, Chen Kai handed it to Xu Fei in such a light attitude. In Alyssa's eyes, Chen Kai, the husband whom she must grab, increased several points again.
If Chen Kai knew that his actions would lead to such consequences, he would definitely expose his iron cock-like side first, and then let Arno sign more than a dozen unequal treaties before dealing with these debts. Of course, these treaties must include content that ask Arno to take care of his sister and not let the other party harass him again. Unfortunately, Chen Kai and the others did not expect this. Although they still used this IOU to let Arno work for Berkner for at least one year, the treaty was at least equal. The most important thing is that Arno, a worker, made Chen Kai bear heavy food debts. The tauren refugees brought back were all old, weak, sick and disabled, but their appetites were not much smaller.
The nearly 1,000 members of the Copper Ring Tribe made Chen Kai's food supply tighter. Now there are nearly two thousand mouths. The grain that has finally gained prosperity in Berkner Town has once again fallen into a supply crisis. Almost on the day when these taurens entered Berkner Town, the price of the lowest black bread in Berkner Town rose by at least five copper coins, and the better white bread rose by fifteen copper coins. As for the refined flour, the price of fine flour rose from one silver coin per kilogram to one and a half silver coin. The instant soaring grain price made Chen Kai's face turn from red to green at night. In the end, Chen Kai had to send Zhao Tiezhu and Hulans to Altinis to buy food with nearly three million gold coins.
But now is not the time for a bumper harvest, so the grain that can be purchased for these more than three million gold coins may be only four-fifths of the past bumper harvest stage. The difference of up to one-fifth will be Chen Kai paying for it with his own private money. Whoever lets the arrival of the Taurens be the residents of Berkner Town? However, even if Zhao Tiezhu and his friends go to Altinis in the south overnight, it will take at least seven days to wait for the grain to be transported to Berkner Town. During this time, Chen Kai must open the grain warehouse to release grain to calm the height of Berkner Town.
The most important thing is to fill the appetite of those taurens. One tauren has an appetite of nearly three adults. The town of Berkner now has about 50,000 residents. The nearly three thousand taurens instantly increased the consumption of food by 10,000. The worst thing is that these taurens have just recovered from hunger. The appetite has become bigger and almost reached the appetite of four or five adults. This is why the food price in Berkner has risen so quickly. Because their existence is equivalent to making the town more than 10,000 mouths.
"Attiya" In fact, Chen Kai ended up wondering if these tauren refugees were deliberately brought back by Arno to him so that they could consume Chen Kai's food. But even if it was really intentional, Chen Kai could only swallow this very bitter fruit, because he could not drive these taurens out. Not to mention what would happen if Alyssa and Arno would think of Chen Kai. Just the danger that these taurens who had finally had enough food to be driven away made Chen Kai dare not give this order.
When these taurens finally settled down, the population of Berkner Town was about 3,000 more. However, Chen Kai still has a long way to go to digest these taurens and turn them from refugee underground residents to real residents of Berkner Town. Of course, the most important thing for him is to mobilize some people to treat the wounds on these taurens and clean them up. In fact, in Chen Kai's opinion, the latter is more important than the former because he is worried that these tauren refugees will have a lot of bacteria, which may lead to a plague in the city.
Of course, the price of this order was that the entire river outside Berkner town was basically smelly in the next three days. It was not until a shower that surrounded Berkner town slowly dissipated, and the farmers found that their farmland was basically no longer fertilized. The sewage washed off from the Taurus was even more fertile than the best fertilizer.
It is very difficult for Chen Kai to select enough soldiers from those taurens, and for the Taurens entering Berkner Town, they have a very serious matter to face. The first is to join Arnault's Copper Ring Tribe to become a Tauren of the Copper Ring Tribe. These Taurens will not object to this point, for them, they just wear a copper ring representing the tribe on their ears, noses, or arms.
What these taurens couldn't accept was that in order to distinguish them from the black-horned horned horned horns that were raging on Hugodi's leadership, Chen Kai asked to apply paint on their horns. This was a very helpless move. After all, these new taurens were not like the original copper ring tribe, and the fur on their bodies was changed by the magic dyes picked up by Arnault. The fur on these taurens, including the horns, were not much different from the original black-horned horned horned horns. For the residents of Berkner Town, they were not much different from the legendary black-horned monsters outside the city.
So in order for these black-horned taurens to better integrate into Berkner town, they must make changes. Of course, these taurens are very reluctant to do this change, because painting oil on their racial logos will make them feel ashamed of their ancestors.
However, Chen Kai was not fighting alone. In addition to Arnold, the patriarch of the Copper Ring tribe who was not satisfied with the image of the Black Horned Taurus, there was also Alyssa, a cow who could really keep his word in the "Entertainment Show" of the Copper Ring Tribe. With the cooperation of the two, the move that would have had a big rebound was finally implemented. Of course, the horns of the Taurus were not all painted with paint. They just used brass paint to put them on a few brass colors that represented the logo of the Copper Ring Tribe, and they were also pictures similar to copper rings.
The pattern of several brass rings on the horns made the Tauren in Berkner look much more pleasant than the original darkness. Even Arnold, a slutty cow, thinks that the brass ring on the horns is better than the past darkness.
In the following days, the Taurens with brass-colored circles on their horns became special residents of Berkner Town. Of course, only the natives and players who have been staying in Berkner Town know that these Taurens are actually black-horned Taurens, not a strange new race.
When Zhao Tiezhu and Hulans returned to Berkner town with more than three million gold coins, the taurens in the whole town had already begun to slowly adapt to the new life here. Of course, these new copper ring tribe taurens were undoubtedly much happier than Beihu Town under Zhuoer's control. At least they had never been hungry. Of course, under Arnault's suppression, their bad habits gradually changed, but some habits still could not be changed, such as tickling the back in front of others, or something. To be continued.
