The Invincible Overlord of Heroes

Chapter 191 Punishment for not responding to the War Mobilization Order

In that moment just now, really only the two women who were with Xu Lai knew how much money was spent in that moment.

Large military buildings rose from the ground, and warriors of level 4 and above walked out of them.

It also means that the gold coins like running water were all spent in an instant.

Don't worry, your father is doing very well now!

Yu Lan bit her lip and said cautiously: Lang Jun, your current condition is not very good. How about I help you vent your anger?

Xu glanced at the sky. It was noon. He had even seen Yan Feng coming on horseback. He probably came to call him for dinner.

Does this, this point, have a bad impact?

Yu Lan's face turned red, she glared at Xu Lai and said, It's broad daylight, what are you thinking about? I'm trying to find something to help you vent.

As an old married couple, Xu Lai was not embarrassed, he smiled and said: Don't worry, I'm really fine.

I'm just sorry about Su Ya. I originally wanted to leave some gold coins for you, but now it seems that I can't find a way to search for them and just take them away.

Su Ya covered her mouth and smiled and said: What are you talking about? You are the master of this fortress. Without you, this fortress should not exist in the first place.

If we can't provide you with much help, it's because we haven't done a good enough job. If you still need to invest a lot of gold coins, it should be because of my incompetence.

Xu Lai laughed and said: What are you doing? I'm not looking for someone to take over.

What's more, even if you had any problems, you paid them off last night.

Yu Lan covered her mouth and chuckled, but Su Ya blushed and did not dare to say anything more.

After meeting Yan Feng, Xu Lai did not pretend to have dinner with everyone, but hid in his newly built villa with Su Ya and the others.

To be honest, Xu Lai is not a sociable person and does not like socializing.

Let him eat with a bunch of people, let alone make gestures. He will be thankful if he can eat well.

But after all, he still couldn't have a quiet meal. In the brand-new large villa, Xu Lai had just finished eating when two people walked in from outside.

Wei Yihong led a woman who surprised Xu Lai to appear in the lobby of the villa.

It was unexpected because since the last conflict with Dong Shuqin, he and the other party had subconsciously avoided each other.

Moreover, Xu Lai never deliberately made things difficult for her. Based on the conditions she exchanged with Xu Lai, she should be living well.

However, it is not surprising to say that it is unexpected. The town has a large population now, but in the final analysis, apart from Xu Lai, they are the only two people who can resonate with Wei Yihong and Dong Shuqin.

It was really no surprise that the two of them walked together.

Hey, you guys are here. Have you eaten? If not, sit down and eat something.

Xu Lai's manner of chatting about everyday things shows that he doesn't have the slightest bit of aristocratic consciousness.

Wei Yihong scratched his head and said sheepishly: Ah, I'm so sorry for disturbing your meal.

We have all eaten. You eat first and we go for a walk outside first.

Xu Lai didn't refuse, smiled and nodded, speeding up to finish the food in the bowl.

Yu Lan frowned and said: Sister Ya, I think Lang Jun should find some people to serve him. Others can be guards, but they don't have the ability to handle the reception.

Su Ya also nodded and said: I'll find some people later, two maids and two male servants first. What do you think, sir?

The soldiers who were recruited as guards were very loyal. Those who were not allowed to enter by Xu Lai would never be let in.

But they would never stop anyone Xu Lai allowed to enter, so Wei Yihong was able to lead people straight in.

But they used to live in this courtyard, and now they want to live outside, and they have to find someone to stop them.

Especially today, they just came here, and they went to find someone in the afternoon, which is a bit embarrassing.

No, at least don't look for it in a hurry these days.

Our Qingfeng Castle has just developed. Don't let others think that we are just getting a little better and let's indulge. And I'm not used to it either.

Su Ya said: Okay, I'll do whatever you say.

That's the good thing about Su Ya. No matter what she thinks, as long as Xu says it, she will do it.

Of course, this is a common problem among people who were promoted by Xu Lai. Even if it was Yu Lan, she would just persuade Xu Lai to do whatever she had in mind. Once Xu Lai gave an order, she would always complete it to the letter.

Sister Ya has agreed, so I can't say anything.

But husband, please don't think that you are making things difficult for others. A maid and a male servant are a very respectable job in this world.

Moreover, you need someone to help you take care of such a large garden and villa, and you need someone to inform and guide you when guests come.

More importantly, you can also provide more jobs to ordinary people in this way.

Only if you pay gold coins as salary and let them use gold coins to buy other people's supplies, can the trading market be revitalized. Otherwise, we will always have to rely on foreign caravans.

Xu Lai smiled bitterly and said: Okay, my talented girl, please don't lecture me, I didn't say I wouldn't let you recruit people.

I just need to wait for two days. After these two days, I will recruit the soldiers that need to be recruited, take them to practice leveling nearby, and rush to Conaston Castle.

Konaston Castle? Isn't that the castle of Earl Ani? Will there be any danger if you run there? Su Ya asked nervously.

Don't worry, I'm not going with the guards. Besides, the crimson archbishop of the temple should have already said hello, otherwise it would be impossible to get this permission letter from Count Aini.

Moreover, Kaunaston Fort is the largest economic center in the entire grassland. If our caravan does not go there, it will be difficult after all.

Su Ya wanted to open her mouth to say something, but Xu Lai quickly picked up a large piece of Behemoth meat and stuffed it into it, smiling and saying:

I know what you want to say, but you also know that you are the only person I can completely trust now. How can I rest assured if I don't leave my business to you?

Depressedly swallowing the meat in her mouth, Su Ya bit her lip unwillingly and said, Sister Yu Lan is much smarter than me.

Yu Lan smiled and said: Sister Ya, I am just a little mage captain in name only. I have no soldiers and no power. Who will take it to heart if I say it out loud.

It is only through the light of your big tree that people can come up with some ideas.

Xu Lai shook his head with a wry smile and said, Don't worry, apart from Ta Han and Yan Feng, I won't take anyone else with me when I go out this time. Yu Lan will also stay at home with you.

As soon as she finished speaking, Yu Lan's face was full of gloom, and Su Ya explained anxiously: No, that's not what I meant.

Xu Lai touched their heads and said, I know you don't mean this. I decided this long ago and it has nothing to do with you.

Don't worry, it only takes three days to study. I'll be back right away.

After hesitating for a while, he still didn't disclose the action of going to the wild land. He wanted to let them be happy for a few more days. Xu Lai felt bad for always throwing them back home.

After settling the two most important women in Xu Lai's world, he found Wei Yihong wandering around outside.

Wei Yihong did not talk about Dong Shuqin at the beginning, but reported his work to Xu Lai.

He and Big Aiboka have packed all the supplies that Xu Lai gave him, and the grooms and transportation workers have also been recruited.

There were three people from Gram Village, two were in charge of the horses, and one was working as a guard with Urdora.

Qingfeng Castle also found three people, a helper and a groom. Xu Lai also knew this groom. It was Watanabe who was responsible for managing Xu Lai's horses.

The last one was a mercenary who had been requisitioned before. There were several mercenaries in this group, and they escaped together when the defense group was defeated.

They were considered deserters and did not dare to go to the empire's big castle, so they avoided the discovered safe route and actually ran all the way to Xu Lai Lai.

Wei Yihong felt that it was not safe to recruit all of them, so he scattered them, leaving one on his side, one on Aaron's side, and one was assigned to the village chief Lachi.

Xu Lai was not interested in such trivial matters. Soldiers of this level were definitely not qualified to enter his core layer, and of course they had no chance to find out any secrets.

Including Wei Yihong and the other three, the caravan already has nine people. The escort strength is far from enough, even if they take the safest route.

Fortunately, they were following Xu Lai this time. Xu Lai had nearly a hundred knights with him. Unless the Prairie King came in person, how could ordinary horse thieves dare to make plans.

After arriving at Kaonaston Castle, sell the goods and buy some necessities needed by Qingfeng Castle, such as various tools, seeds, cloth, etc.

When leaving, it would be best to wait until Xu Lai comes with him. If not, Wei Yihong also plans to recruit a few mercenaries from Conaston.

A pile of worthless goods and dozens of people should not be easily dangerous.

Xu Lai fully agreed with Wei Yihong's plan, and it was unacceptable if he disagreed. He really couldn't send more people.

After talking about the business, we finally came to the matter of Dong Shuqin.

So, you and her are getting together?

Wei Yihong coughed awkwardly and said: Ahem, it can't be said that we are getting together, we are just getting along for the time being.

Xu Laiyi smiled and said: Eat and drink, men and women, I understand, I understand!

It was difficult for Wei Yihong to explain, and the more he explained this, the more embarrassing he became, so he had to directly bring up the business and said: Actually, I don't think there is any need to approach you about this matter, nor should I approach you.

But I really couldn't resist her request, so I brought her to see you.

Xu Lai smiled and said: It's okay, I'm here already, let's talk about it first.

If I can help, I won't refuse for your sake.

Wei Yihong nodded and said, That's right. Didn't you respond to the war mobilization order before?

Xu Lai opened his eyes and said, You don't mean to say that Dong Shuqin has also received it, right? Doesn't it mean that there is no need to go to places that have not been conveyed?

Xu Lai was notified of the official confirmation. Dong Shuqin hid well at home and kept a low profile. No one would look for her specifically.

Wei Yihong smiled bitterly and said: Priest Elena did not embarrass Shuqin, she was indeed not forced to respond to the war mobilization order.

But after the war, she was still punished.

Xu Lai asked curiously: What kind of punishment?

The basic favorability of all humans has been reduced by 30 points. Wei Yihong swallowed and continued:

Her relationship with the neighbors was not very good in the first place. Now after this incident, no one around her wants to talk to her.

Xu Lai also opened his mouth wide, and after a while he asked Wei Yihong: I remember you were a hero before, are you okay? (End of Chapter)
