Originally as the core area of Port Anthony, the port area is the lifeblood of the entire city. It is impossible to allow the poor to wander around here, let alone set up tents and simple shacks.
But with the support of the paladins, no officials or nobles wanted to come here to get unlucky. In less than a month, four officers were arrested and convicted by the paladins.
The soldiers below are even more miserable. Every time they see paladins, they go around far away, and the governance of the port area is basically in a state of stocking.
The continuous gathering of the poor has obviously affected the normal order of the port area. Traffic jams and the accumulation of garbage make the workers working in the port area miserable.
Fishermen who secretly drive simple fishing boats to fish nearby often collide with merchant ships. Because of the paladins, maritime merchants who occasionally become pirates in the open sea generally settle their affairs and pay some money to the fishermen.
This behavior quickly arose among the poor, and Porcelain became a professional business, and within a few weeks, a tight organization was formed.
Marx has been watching with cold eyes. On the one hand, he saw the poor people struggling to survive in order to survive, and on the other hand, he also saw the roots of their inferiority.
They need education and guidance. Only labor is the ultimate solution to all poverty. The reason why there are so many chaos is that, in the final analysis, some people always want to get something for nothing, or get more for less.
The nobles in the city are constantly complaining that the paladin’s long-term station requires them to prepare a banquet every day to prevent the paladin’s fragile soul from being stimulated by luxury.
Not to mention that young nobles can no longer find flowers and ask Liu. Last week, the son of a baron was arrested by a passing paladin for molesting the daughter of a bakery shopkeeper and sentenced to five years.
It's useless for anyone to intercede. People are still smashing stones on the paladin's own ground outside the city. The old baron almost hanged himself because of this.
Antoine is now living the life of an ascetic monk every day. The business share of the port area is declining. The huge transaction volume originally caused by cooperation with pirates disappeared as the relationship between Antoine and the pirate Mama deteriorated. Coupled with the reason of the paladin, this quarter's transaction volume is only one-third of the previous quarter.
The share of the aristocratic council cannot be reduced. The subordinate aristocrats complain that their business has been affected every day. Don't you know that the biggest sufferer is Antoine himself.
He already missed that demon hunter now.
The cooperation between smart people and smart people is always pleasant, because the two sides will have a tacit understanding to leave enough benefits for each other.
But the Paladin Legion is different. They don't talk about interests, only faith, and secular wealth is meaningless to them.
Antoine rubbed his temples, feeling that his weight had dropped to a new level, and his hairline had stepped back to the danger line.
"Fuck!" A live fish was thrown into the study, and Antoine was so scared that Antoine tumbled and rolled under the desk.
He has worked hard for this movement for a long time, and it has begun to bear fruit.
"Who?" Antoine's small eyes came out from behind the desk and carefully scanned the study, only to see a corner of his daughter's skirt outside the door.
"Juliet!" Antoine wiped the sweat on his forehead: "I saw you! Come out! I know you want to go out, but it's useless to scare Dad! I don't agree with you being with that poor man! Unless he One million, no, five hundred thousand, forget it, one hundred thousand gold coins!"
"Dad, look at that fish. Marx said you'd better understand that this is the main source of food for ordinary people in the city." Juliet refused to show up and hid outside the door and said to Antoine: "Marx also said , You'd better talk to someone in the church about this matter."
Antoine looked at the struggling fish on the ground with some confusion. He didn't know what the mystery was, and his eyes widened soon.
The fish that had been struggling on the floor for a long time seemed to finally lose its strength and succumbed to the air, but as some tiny tentacles on the gills stretched out and continuously secreted mucus, the fish seemed to regain its vitality.
As a coastal city, nobles seldom eat seafood. They think it is fishermen’s food and not suitable for the nobles’ tables.
The paladins and priests of the church are even more extraordinary, and they rarely eat seafood.
Antoine couldn't even remember the last time he saw a live fish, but he was sure that those little tentacles shouldn't be what the fish should grow.
These little tentacles reminded him of some unpleasant memories. The last bloodline of the Anthony family, the appearance of the little Anthony Earl after turning to Chaos has always been Antoine’s nightmare~EbookFREE.me~This..... "Antoine pointed to the fish on the ground and said tremblingly: "Isn't it the thing I thought?" "
"Marx said you can't solve this problem. It's best to hand it over to Master Richard. If you can't see Master Richard, let the Paladin Expeditionary Army handle it." Juliet showed half of her face and looked at Antoine. Anxiously said: "Dad, Marx said that ordinary people in Anthony's Grand Port City are using this fish for food."
"I see." Antoine's face was gray, but he calmed down: "This is not something you should mix up with, forget about it."
After a pause, Antoine spoke again: "I repeat, don't deal with that poor man in the future, unless he has one hundred thousand gold coins!"
Looking at the fish on the ground, the fat man added: "Or he is an extraordinary person, I can also consider the relationship between the two of you."
The fat man called the guards, wrapped the fish tightly with cotton cloth, and prepared a carriage all the way to the original Nemesis Castle outside the city.
Pastor Richard closed the Temple of War, and it has been several weeks since I saw no one. Antoine knew he didn't have that great face, so he went directly to the commander of the Paladin Legion Dale Seaworth.
However, he was destined to be disappointed, because Dale Seaworth had already taken most of his fleet along the sea to pursue the Nemesis.
What he didn't know was that Mama, the pirate queen, was less than half a day away from the port where the Nemesis Group called.
"Are you sure what they have in their hands is worth so much money?" Mama sat on her Iron Throne. Since capturing the black ship, she has regarded the Scarlet Shroud as her new flagship.
The black ship and the black iron throne are more harmonious, which makes Mama very satisfied.
"I'm sure..." the man hung on the wooden shelf replied weakly
