Chapter IX Chen Rui's Proposal
Joanna never expected that Chen Rui would say such words, which was simply nonsense!
At that moment, Joanna shouted angrily: "I warn you not to talk nonsense!"
"Then I warn you too, don't talk nonsense!"
After Chen Rui finished speaking lazily, Joanna quickly pulled out her sword, and then she gritted her teeth and threatened to warn: "I tell you, even if I kill you, Lord Meluti will not blame me, because Lord Meluti will not be stupid, and attack me because of a dead person!"
"So this is the so-called knight who believes in justice, virtue and strength?" Chen Rui looked at Joanna after hearing this and sneered: "Apart from slandering and putting on hats, he will only rely on his own strength to threaten others. Is this a knight who represents fairness and justice?"
Joanna didn't talk nonsense, and after a while she was silent, she said seriously: "Unless you can prove your origin and indicate your identity,"
“I’m just an amnesia traveler.”
Chen Rui explained helplessly: "Don't worry, I am definitely not the one next to Andrea, and I have no malicious intentions towards Meluti!"
"Do you think I'll believe you?"
Joanna's mouth once again showed a mocking smile, amnesia?
Don’t lose your memory early or late, but you lose your memory after meeting Meluti?
If you say this, let alone Joanna, you probably wouldn't believe the words of the man in front of you!
It was so damn hard to talk to Joanna. No matter what, she just didn't believe Chen Rui's words. This woman is really stubborn!
After looking at Joanna with white eyes, Chen Rui felt really depressed. This Joanna is pretty good-looking and has healthy skin with wheat-colored skin. If she wears a policewoman uniform or something, she will definitely be wild and full of temptation.
But her temper -
Chen Rui had no choice but to sigh, and Joanna saw Chen Rui looking at her, as if she was regretting something. She immediately raised her eyebrows and slapped the sword on the table with a "splash" and said, "You——"
"This, Knight Joanna, I can't prove that I'm not from Andrea, but you can't prove that I'm from Andrea."
Chen Rui coughed lightly, interrupted Joanna's speech, and said loudly. He naturally could not tell Joanna that time travel was the biggest secret of Chen Rui except for the "game system". How could he be stupid and tell his secrets everywhere?
And even if she can say it, can she understand it by telling it to Joanna?
Can she understand what a time traveler is?
Maybe Joanna would think Chen Rui’s brain was broken!
"Captain Joanna, we can't come up with evidence, so I have a suggestion!" Chen Rui continued: "You can send some people to monitor me. Think about it, if I were from Andrea, if I was someone on the side of Andrea, there would definitely be some flaws when I was monitored. At that time, please ask Captain Joanna to help me arrest it!"
When Joanna heard this, she held her chin, frowned, looked at Chen Rui without saying a word.
"If you monitor it for a while and make sure I'm fine, then--" Chen Rui said with a smile: "I believe that at that time, I should be able to clear my suspicion, right?"
Joanna still didn't say anything, keeping her chin thinking posture. After thinking for a long time, she said, "What you said is also a solution, so let time verify everything!"
When Chen Rui heard this, he let out a long sigh. This should be considered to be convincing Joanna?
Soon, the game system also called for the completion of the task, so Chen Rui had 150 experience and 150 game coins in his hand!
"but--"
Joanna's words suddenly changed and she said sternly: "I will monitor you personally!"
“…”
Chen Rui was too lazy to talk nonsense to Joanna. You should know that Joanna is the leader of the Knight. If she wants to say that she can monitor Chen Rui for one or two days, Chen Rui believes that if Joanna wants to keep doing things seriously every day and stare at him, Chen Rui. No matter how you look at it, it is not realistic!
Knight, you probably don't have that idle, right?
At this time, the heavy armored guards outside the door also said: "King Master Joanna, Lord Meluti, please come here."
"I see!"
After Joanna returned, she said to Chen Rui: "Go with me! Don't disappear in my eyes!"
This woman—
Chen Rui's forehead was exposed, and he really wanted to ask, damn! Is that if you take a shower and sleep, I will be with you too?
But now Joanna is stronger than Chen Rui's strength. He can only think about this in his mind. If he wants to say something, Joanna will turn against him on the spot!
Afterwards, Chen Rui and Joanna went to find Meluti.
Along the way, Chen Rui also discovered that the residents of this small village were also standing by the roadside, casting curious light at him and looking at him.
Chen Rui also looked at them, and when he arrived in front of a second-story wooden house with Joanna, Chen Rui's mouth twitched when he saw this. Could it be, is this Meluti's "mansion"?
The daughter of a great duke lives in a second-story wooden house. If this is spread, it will probably make people laugh?
However, this wooden house is much better than the old houses next to it!
"How could you appear with Knight Joanna?" Meluti was surprised to see Chen Rui appearing with Joanna. Could it be that Chen Rui had convinced Joanna?
Although Meluti didn't know Joanna very well, after the first contact, she felt that Joanna was a serious and serious person!
Unexpectedly, Chen Rui could convince Joanna so quickly?
"I can't come up with evidence to clear my suspicion, and Joanna can't come up with evidence to prove that I am Andrea's person." Chen Rui said helplessly: "So, I suggested that someone monitor me, but unexpectedly, the Knight Joanna was very enthusiastic and active. She immediately said that she was willing to monitor me personally, so I can only meet you with her!"
"Mr. Meluti, what's wrong?"
Joanna knelt down on one knee and performed etiquette. She glared at Chen Rui fiercely for Chen Rui's previous speech.
"Knight Joanna, since you arrived here first with the Guardian Knights, I would like to ask you about the situation of the neighborhood and the village population, etc."
As soon as Meluti finished speaking, Joanna said, "I have already investigated these!"
Then, Joanna stood up and introduced: "There are 407 people in this village, plus the 150 members of our guardian Knights, Lord Meluti and this man, the current population is 559! At the same time, the per capita income of this village is only 30 gold coins per year! The territorial tax of the village is about 40 to 500 gold coins a year. This tax gold coins cannot be afforded even a slightly decent alchemy rune weapon!"
The per capita income is only thirty gold coins per year?
Chen Rui frowned slightly. Two days ago, he heard Meluti say that in the Corian continent, the standard per capita income is about 80 gold coins per year!
This village is obviously far below the average, and the territory's tax revenue is pitifully low. If these four or five hundred gold coins are used to manage and develop the territory, it is really a drop in the bucket.
Chapter completed!
