Hearing this, Ultrahan, who was originally cold-faced because Cons was able to station in the township, immediately smiled on his face - a smile that was not for the blessing of the other party, but rather a smile that made people feel that it should be gloating.

At this time, everyone knew that something was wrong.

It is normal for the mercenary group to be stationed in towns and is responsible for public security, taxation and military sources. After all, without these three things, the mercenary group stationed in the garrison will not be able to develop. What’s strange is that the taxes that need to be paid are actually taxed for fifty gold coins a year!

You should know that the general practice is to pay 60% or 70% of the money, and the best thing is to pay 50% or 50% of the money. Only a very small number of dilapidated villages will have taxes.

Think about it, the towns with three or four thousand people have hundreds of gold coins every month. This lord only collects fifty gold coins a year to set taxes? He is willing to give such a huge discount, and there is definitely something strange inside!

Cons still kept his calm expression and said, "I wonder if there are any vassals of the Baron near Qingxiang Town?"

As soon as these words were spoken, Bilinters and the experienced mercenaries immediately realized.

Yes, this town must have been illegally occupied by the Baron's vassals, and it is very strong. The Baron is unwilling to waste his troops to regain power. After all, it is just a town. Only in this way can such a cheap garrison place appear.

However, the Lord's answer was beyond everyone's expectations: "No, Qingxiang Town itself and its surroundings do not have a vassal. My Lord can even agree to the leader in advance here. As long as the leader can completely control Qingxiang Town, I am willing to enthrone Qingxiang Town to you as a Knights' Town."

The last sentence was exactly like Pili, and everyone, including Ultrahan, was shocked.

But everyone woke up quickly.

Ultrahan was full of jealousy and sneer, and clearly wanted to wait and see jokes. The mercenaries were happy. The knight leader was usually just one or two manors, not even a village. Now he actually used a town as a knight leader? This is really wonderful.

Bilinters is very regretful now. Who would have thought that a small mercenary group with only four members would be able to obtain the title of nobles and territory so quickly? I wonder if the master would consider his slaves as a mercenary group if he found an opportunity to be loyal to his master?

No one noticed that the Baron remembered everyone's expressions in his heart, especially when he saw the expressions of Ultrahan and Bilintes, the Baron couldn't help but bend a strange smile on the corner of his mouth.

Although everyone knows that such a big cheap must be accompanied by huge troubles, but people die for money and birds die for food. No matter how big the difficulties are, they all want Cons to agree immediately.

However, the territory of Cons was calculated according to the provinces, so he still kept a calm expression and asked, "I wonder what the recruitment limit of my mercenary group is in the Qingxiang Group?"

Hearing this, the mercenaries all looked at Cons with admiration. They didn't expect that the leader of the regiment could think of something to pay attention to in the face of such huge benefits.

The Baron said with a kind face and expression: "According to the number of people specified in the mercenary group level, the mercenary group belongs to, and the mercenary group will be expanded according to the quota specified in that level."

The mercenaries secretly cursed the old fox because now Cons' mercenary group is only at level one, only twelve places. The five people on their side, plus Cons and the other four, there are only three places left. With these twelve people managing a town, I'm afraid that pressing one end and another will be swelling again, which will definitely be exhausting.

However, the mercenaries didn't care. Since they had agreed to have the level of troops that were allowed to have that level, this matter was nothing.

Even this mission is enough to upgrade the mercenary group to the second level, and you can just work hard to do the tasks in the future. Don’t worry about the money for upgrading. As long as there is that Qingxiang Town, are you still afraid that you can’t upgrade?

"Well, then on behalf of the White Man Black Rose Mercenary Group, I would like to thank the Lord for your trust." Cons saluted gracefully.

"Haha, then it depends on when your group can receive the Knight fief from my master."

The lord waved his hand, and a servant swept over with a piece of sheepskin in a wooden plate.

When the mercenaries saw that sheepskin, all the mercenaries were beating violently. This is the legendary garrison contract for the nobles to invite the mercenary group.

The Lord signed and stamped the sheepskin. As soon as he waved his hand, the sheepskin was sent to Cons.

Conslo glanced at it and found that the content was the same as what the Lord said just now, and he also specially bolded the conditions for paying the annuity and enthroning the Knights. It seemed that the Lord had made a decision long ago.

Because such a sheepskin document cannot be written in a short time.

But Cons didn't think much about it, and directly signed his name and stamped it with the ring as a seal.

At this point of view, from a legal perspective, the three powers of public security, taxation and military sources in Qingxiang Town fell into the hands of the White Man Black Rose Mercenary Group. Unless the Lord issued another written document, no one else could deprive this power.

The evening banquet allowed the mercenaries and slaves to see the luxury of the nobles.

But this luxury, in the eyes of Cons and A, is even worse than the family banquets of low-level officials.

The food is barbecue, soup, roast lamb, roast duck, roast chicken and chicken soup, plus a little gray bread, and a little ale.

Adding a few candles for decoration is the banquet for the nobles of the Snow Country Baron.

At this moment, if you look closely, Lord Baron's castle is very large, but the walls are too thick, making the space very narrow.

What makes the whole castle move is the multi-functional convention hall, because not only are banquets held here, but even slightly larger events are held here, including birth, death, marriage, duel, and campaigns.

And what about other places? The lord's housing is unclear. Cons and his house have a bed and a set of tables and chairs. There is only room for turning around, and there is also a window that needs to be crawled.

All these are enough to prove that Snow Country is still very backward in terms of quality of life, but considering that there has almost never stopped wars here, it is not a big mistake for them to have such a life.

After a lot of fun, Cons, the newly emerging mercenary leader, was also known by the upper class of Baron Hal.

Although the upper-level figures don’t really think of the mercenary group, after understanding the number of people in the mercenary group of Cons and his mission, everyone stared at Cons coldly with strange smiles, which made the mercenaries gathered around Cons extremely depressed.

With everyone in Cons being extremely interested in Qingxiang Town, everyone only spent a day replenishing supplies.

After accepting the lord's employment, you can not only obtain strategic materials such as crossbows, but also buy several dog sleds at a cheap price. The biggest advantage is that Helf's head can be directly rewarded in advance at the Mercenary Guild led by Baron Hal.

This bounty was produced by the local mercenary guild.

In addition to getting the benefits of money, under the care of the guild leaders, the points of the White Via Black Rose Mercenary Group jumped violently, and finally allowed Cons to directly upgrade the Mercenary Group to level 3.

In other words, in just one day, Cons had 108 legally possessed weapons from twelve places.

On the third day, Cons said goodbye to the lord early, then drove the dog to Qingxiang Town with a lot of supplies.

This time, the sled is not even as good as the Snow Wolf Gang, and it should not be compared with the ones made by Cons. This sled is very simple. Two seats in the front row, one seated in the middle, and cargo tied in the back. Ten snow dogs are enough to pull quickly.

Cons and the others followed the baron's instructions and ran all the way. The journey of more than 100 kilometers was over in a few days. When they saw a large black shadow in the distance and a large cloud of fog above the black shadow, everyone knew that Qingxiang Town was about to arrive.

He Li, who was on the first sled car with Ayi and Kelly, sighed while looking at him: "Looking at the fog above the town, it's so thick. I didn't expect that thousands of people lived together, and in winter, the snowflakes above the town melted before they even fell."

"Don't be stupid, thousands of people? Can the heat exhaled by thousands of people melt such large snowflakes?

I dare say that there are at least tens of thousands of people there, so that such a landscape appears!" Kelly retorted immediately.

"What? Tens of thousands of people!?" Heli was shocked when he heard this.

Seeing this guy's appearance, Jia Yi couldn't help but say, "What's so surprised? I really think that the lord said that two or three thousand people are only two or three thousand people. If this is the case, will the lord hand over the town to us?"

Heli knew clearly that A-1 was the fierce man who killed dozens of enemy soldiers by one person.

In addition, the other party was the direct confidant of the group leader, so he took A Yi's scolding for granted, and did not feel uncomfortable. Instead, he asked with a flattering expression: "Sir A Yi, tell us what's going on?"

Kelly also waited with a look of desire. The force of the three confidants under Cons was absolutely admirable, so everyone was willing to make them superior.

"It's very simple. I believe that during the days you were in the castle, I have asked about the information about Qingxiang Town. I don't know if you have found out anything else, but at least you should know what the geographical location of Qingxiang Town is." Jia said casually.

He knew that he was going to start doing things on the table, so he also began to deliberately forge his own expressions and actions. Others may not be very adaptable, but he, who was born as a top secret guard, is of course very good at this.

"I know!" Heli said anxiously: "Qingxiang Town is adjacent to the largest non-freezing river in the entire Snow Country - Xuelong River! It is located in the river bank area in the middle of the Snow Dragon River."

"That's right, Qingxiang Town is located in the middle reaches of the Xuelong River, and this area is a very strange concave terrain. When the upstream of the upstream reaches this area, it will completely become smoother."

Speaking of this, when A saw Heli's dazed expression, he knew that he hadn't understood what was going on.

It seems that as the Lord said, these mercenaries are useless.

Jia Yi shook his head and explained: "Think about it, after the upstream merchant ship set sail, he rushed to this recess, and then stopped here. There was no wind or river flow, so he was completely trapped here. If you want to drive downstream or even go to sea, you have to rely on the help of the boatman by the river."

Heli said in surprise: "Wow, doesn't this mean that Qingxiang Town has made a fortune? You know, most of the merchant ships passing through the river are Wilter merchant ships!"

"Yes, if you think about the number of these merchant ships, you can understand why there are so many people in a small town." Jia Yi sighed.

"Why did the Lord give the garrison power of Qingxiang Town so easily to our mercenary group? In a town with such a rich and rich town, you can't even think of it, right?" Kelly asked.

Heli suddenly said with disdain, "Hmph, you still need to ask, the merchant ship needs to be transferred in Qingxiang Town. With such an important position, the fleet owners must have placed manpower here. The fleet owners are all big merchants of Wirt, so how could they care about the lords!

"In addition, due to the special status of the fleet, thieves from all over the country regard this place as a selling point, which can be said to be a mixture of dragons and snakes. Although the lord is a noble, he is just a baron, and there is no possibility of exercising any power over Qingxiang Town."

This thorough analysis of the words did not attract the attention of the other two people in the same car. Because everyone who makes a living here knows that no mercenary is simple, looks like a big silly man on the outside, and is full of smart people on the inside.

Because of his habits from Secret Guards, he never looked down on anyone, so even if Heli suddenly became a demon, he would not make a fuss.

"Will the Lord give us the town, let us die?"

Kelly looked at his colleague who had suddenly become very smart in confusion.

What's going on with this guy? You act rude at the beginning, but why did you suddenly reveal your background? Although everyone is in the same organization now, it's just a chance meeting. This reveals the background?

"How is that possible? Lord Lord saw that our leader and the three masters were invincible, so he handed over the town to us. Under the leadership of the leader, our mercenary group will definitely make Qingxiang Town the Knights' Headmaster's Knights' Headmaster!" Heli said with confidence.

As soon as he heard this, Kelly immediately understood that this guy was so desperate to show himself when he saw that the strong subordinates of the group leader could definitely clean up Qingxiang Town.

Because, even if you cannot fulfill the lord contract, you can still gain a foothold with powerful force and collect protection fees. Once you reach this level, the mercenary group will definitely need to be expanded. At that time, the senior management will not dare to think that the middle-level management will have to be selected from the five of them. Whoever is higher or lower at that time depends on the feelings of the leader and his confidants.

Thinking of this, Kelly immediately followed Cons and Ayi to flatter him. He believed that the other three mercenaries were probably doing the same job as him now.

I really envy the person who was on the same sled as the leader of the group.

As for the performance of these two products, Jia Yi could only sigh in his heart that mercenaries are not simple products.

Suddenly, Aoi pulled the reins and stopped the sled, then pressed the handle of the knife and stood up to look. Heli and Kelly were not slow, and they also stood up and were on guard.

Several sledges behind also stopped quickly, gathered together, and everyone got out of the car and was on alert.
