Chapter 200: The Greedy Village Chief (Part I)


Lorne's thoughts were different from Celine's worries.

As long as his fists were hard enough, rumors and conspiracies could still hurt him.

The only reason he was angry was because he lost three knights and let that little brat Rory run away. dropped.

A little kid with no hair at all actually knew how to run away in advance.

Lorne couldn't believe it when he heard the news from Celine.

Such a result is inseparable from the fact that he underestimated Rory.

But there was no use regretting what had happened, and now that Rory and the others had started taking action, he couldn't continue to delay.

On one side, Celine wrote a letter hoping to confuse the Charles family for a while.

On the other side, Lorne stepped forward and began to gather the team.

They need to rush back to the Fast Territory as quickly as possible, and then do their best to create a sizable group of Cyborg troops.

The baron who was indifferent to the matter personally supervised it, and no one dared to neglect it.

And those who knew some inside stories were even more upset.

It took less than half an hour for the assembled team to set off.

"Lord Baron, are you satisfied with your rest last night?"

Seeing that Lorne was planning to leave, the old village chief felt that the time was ripe and ran over to hint that he wanted benefits.

Lorne, who was so angry and had nowhere to vent his anger, had no time to worry about this old guy.

He ignored the village chief's hint and greeted everyone to leave.

It can be seen that the old guy with as much wealth as his life is willing to let Lorne take advantage of him.

Relying on the fact that he is a subject of the Grand Duke of the North, this guy actually dares to stop a noble.

"Sir, you can't do this.

Our village has suffered great losses because of you.

Even this year's tax revenue has been damaged a lot.

If you just leave like this, how will we deal with the big bus?"

A big-ass village chief with shabby food.

The Grand Duke of the North could see him when he had time.

Lorn didn't like others to oppress him the most.

The village chief not only used the Grand Duke of the North to oppress him, but also deliberately made a loud noise to attract many villagers to watch.

Since the other party loves showing off so much, then he should teach the shameless old guy a lesson "Tell me, didn't I give you a bag of gold coins?

Why, your villages are all inlaid with gold?

You can't compensate with so many gold coins?"

Lorne was sure that Athena had given the village chief a certain amount of compensation, and the Stuart eldest lady always used gold coins as the smallest unit when calculating money.

The village chief who wanted to embezzle it obviously did not share this huge sum of money with his village name, or in other words, he turned a bag of gold coins into silver coins or even coppers.

Sure enough, when I heard there was a bag of gold coins for compensation.

The villagers who gathered around him immediately looked at their village chief.

The old guy didn't expect Lorne to be so shameless.

After seeing everyone's suspicious looks, he immediately defended himself.

"You have never compensated me, let alone a bag of gold coins.

You are lying."

"How dare you frame a nobleman?

I swear on the honor of Baron Fast that there must be a lot of gold coins hidden on your body or at home.

That is my compensation to the village.

If you don't believe it, search him You know the clothes or things at home.

Do you still dare to say that a small village chief can save so many gold coins?"

Lorne's confidence stems from his understanding of Athena, and the old village chief's greedy nature also ensures that he will not leave the gold coins outside.

Sure enough, the old village chief's expression changed immediately when he heard Lorne said he wanted to search him.

He has never seen so many gold coins and has been carrying that huge sum of money with him.

Even because he is too old, the small money bag weighs him down and makes him walk much heavier than before.

Not only was Lorne aware of the suspicion, many villagers also discovered something was wrong with the village chief.

Everyone gradually surrounded the old guy.

In order to keep his gold coins, the old guy who had no choice but to act like a village chief.

"I am the village chief, what do you want to do?

Believe it or not, I will report to the Grand Duke, and none of you will be able to eat and walk around in circles."

After all, the head of a village is elected by everyone.

He has status but no power.

In the Northern Territory, only those who have made military exploits and fought in battles can be qualified.

If it were the village chief when he was young, it is estimated that not many people would dare to take action after being bluffed by him like this.

But an old man is not so scary.

Lorne on the other side fanned the flames, and during the tug, a bulging bag fell out.

The heavy pressure on the ground stirred up a lot of dust, and from the mouth of the bag that could not be tightened, a flash of golden light ignited everyone's anger.

Things could no longer be concealed, and the struggling village chief wanted to tell the truth.

But how could Lorne give him a chance?

He yelled at the greedy old man.

The shameful beast didn't even leave him a chance to survive.

"Asshole, the facts are before our eyes.

Do you still deny it, do you want to continue to frame me?

How could a scum like you appear in the north?

I want to report to the Grand Duke.

A person with dirty morals like you is not worthy of being the leader of a village. long Everyone has seen this person clearly, he actually dares to hack your gold coins.

Do you think you can forgive him?"

A bag full of gold coins, at least dozens of them.

The annual expenses of a peasant family are only two or three gold coins.

Naturally, the old village chief cannot win everyone's understanding if he takes so much by himself.

Let alone a villager, see that bag of gold coins.

Lorne himself has become greedy.

He is so shameless that he is even thinking about how to steal Athena's gold coins.

However, after he saw the fate of the old village chief, he was so frightened by the madness of human nature that he finally gave up this tempting idea.

"Cannot forgive" "Give me back my gold coins" The roars of nearly a hundred people drowned out the old guy's voice and attracted more villagers.

When everyone knew that the black-hearted village chief had embezzled the kind-hearted baron's compensation, everyone's voices became more and more crazy.

"Kill him" Lorne only heard this sentence clearly, and he followed the crowd and twisted wildly.

Then, a young and muscular man came to Lorne with a bloody head.

"Lord Baron, the shameless old guy has been punished.

Thank you for upholding justice for us.

Your generosity and justice will always be spread in our village."

There were still pieces of blood on the young man's face that had not been wiped off.

When he spoke, his face was full of sincerity, but the dead old man's head in his hand was too terrifying.

Looking at the fracture under the head, the jagged wounds proved that it was torn from the body.

Lorne always thought that only orcs could do such cruel things, but the desperate farmers were equally terrifying.

And the reason for all this is just a bag of gold coins Having to lament the horror of gold coins, Lorne not only gave up his plan to hack the bag of gold coins.

He also feels that the agricultural tax he is planning to issue should be appropriately changed or simply cancelled.
