Surviving The Fourth Calamity-Chapter 61 - 60 The Terrible Cunlü and Hard Wind
61: Chapter 60 The Terrible Cunlü and Hard Wind
61 -60 The Terrible Cunlü and Hard Wind
Hill thought for a moment and smiled at the players, saying, “Haifasardo is quite an unusual country, with as many nobles as Edward.
There, you will have plenty of things to do.”
Perfect Bald shouted, “Are there that many idiots?”
Xiao Liuliulu widened her eyes and asked, “How has it managed to survive thousands of years without being destroyed if it’s like that?”
“There are also the likes of Charles,” Hill explained.
“They have Saral to stop the magical beasts from the North, and with nobles like Charles guarding the Western Border, it’s enough.
The West is all mountains, and the magical beasts don’t like to go to the plains.
It’s easy to defend.
The deities don’t allow wars to happen casually, and Cortez doesn’t have the capability to expand.
They can’t control such a large territory.”
The players all appeared thoughtful when Cunlü, who had been standing by and listening, suddenly said, “So they lack intelligence and can’t mind their own business, huh?
And is the Haifasardo Royal Family’s genetics really that strong?” she mused.
“So, boys are likely to be as dumb as their dads?”
“Your child had better be like Hard Wind,” the Old Age Striking King said from a blue lazy chair, startling many people.
“You scared me to death!” Cunlü screamed.
“You’re dressed like a blue cabbage, why the heck are you nesting in a blue sofa too?
I can’t see anything but your head!”
“Don’t make such a fuss, who did you scare?” the Old Age Striking King said impatiently.
“Can’t a pregnant woman be a bit more settled?
If there’s nothing to do, why don’t you just go out for a walk?”
“I’m planning to go out to buy some fruit later; I’ll take a walk then,” Cunlü said.
“I finally got rid of that ball, so don’t bother me.”
“Go and see which pregnant woman at seven months looks like you!” the Old Age Striking King cursed.
“Hard Wind doesn’t even care about you!”
“I can’t control her,” Hard Wind had been standing behind Cunlü all along.
“I’m just waiting to send her back to her family when she’s about to give birth; a few days of scolding from her mother-in-law should do the trick.
She doesn’t feel any discomfort with the child in her belly, what can I do?
I can’t argue with a pregnant woman.”
Hill listened, dumbfounded.
The players of Black Rose seemed to have no intention of explaining to him why Cunlü was called a pregnant woman, all pretending to be fools.
But Hill understood!
He used to simply admire the big sister for being a fierce woman, but now, he found the unshakable Hard Wind even more terrifying.
Perfect Bald quickly changed the subject: “Mr.
Hill, will you also open a shop in Kexlote?”
“Yes,” Hill answered briefly.
“Mainly to collect more minerals and herbs special to Saral.”
“Ah!
We really don’t have much in stock recently,” Perfect Bald said regretfully.
“Most of it has been sold to Master Fran.”
Hill nodded.
“I know.
Uncle Adrian has also mentioned it.”
“Your prices are still the best,” Rain Falling on Mortal Dust said quietly.
“William’s place mainly offers military exploits in exchange.
The territories of the other nobles, it’s like they’re trying to rob us.”
“Grandfather isn’t short of money, just materials,” Hill said.
“He usually offers the discounted rate that grocery stores provide to mages.
After all, we have to deliver right to his door.
If there weren’t any teleportation arrays, you would also be wasting time and would have to sell locally.”
“Can’t you also use the teleportation arrays?” Perfect Bald asked, puzzled.
“Why isn’t anyone reselling through them?”
“Small traders can’t afford the teleportation fees.
Only with bulk purchases can they make a profit; few merchants dare do such business that offends the local snakes.
Those who can afford to offend the nobles wouldn’t do this kind of trade.”
“Okay, it’s the nobles again,” Bald muttered to himself.
“In a while, we’ll see how William takes care of them.”
Romantic Drunk Red Dust asked, “Mr. freёnovelkiss.com
Hill, do you think there will be a lot of quests in Haifasardo?
Compared to the nobles we’ve fought before, which one is more similar?”
“Obastian’s slave-trading Sky Knight family?
The one you burnt to death!”
The people of Black Rose were all excited.
“That’s great!
Not only do we get William’s military exploits, but also the friendliness of the Temple of Time and Space!
And they pay a lot too!”
The Old Age Striking King muttered, “Sounds good, I can be the bait and get double rewards!”
Hill felt he had heard something crucial.
So, the female players who’d been caught were on a bait quest?
It was common knowledge, but who knew when it would happen?
So that’s why things erupted so quickly, with so many logging on that day?
Hill felt William’s image in his heart crumble once more, plummeting from a shepherd to a silly pup.
Xiao Liuliu noted that night had fallen deep, and it was almost 10 p.m., time to close the shop, so she dragged Bald up to say goodbye to Hill.
Hill nodded and watched them leave, heaving a deep sigh.
After instructing Srei to close the shop, he went up to the second floor, where there was a staircase in the corner leading to a hidden third floor.
Hill had set up a bathroom, a bedroom, and a study here.
He picked up the communicator on the study desk and called List.
“How was your day, sir?” List responded warmly.
“Not so good, too many things going on, I have a headache and feel dizzy.
Connect me to grandfather,” Hill instructed List to make a connection.
“Hill?” Adrian asked in surprise.
“Didn’t you go out?
What’s the matter?”
“Is grandfather there?”
“Hold on, I’ll check; he hasn’t been very busy lately.”
Fran quickly arrived: “What’s the matter?”
Hill tried to explain the information he had gathered that day to both as simply as possible.
