He silently communicated with the system in his mind. Please help me review the current total number of troops and other conditions:
[You have three level 5 Svadia Iron Knights, with Xiao Ming as the captain.]
[You have 10 level 4 tavern mercenary knights, with Xiao Nan as the captain. 】
[You have 4 level 2 taverns to hire veterans, no one is commanding them, and they serve as gatekeepers in the town of Uxhall.]
[You have 3 special characters, Dragon Mother Safiya (friendliness 42), businessman Manid (friendship 55), and Nayantulu among the captives. 】
[After deducting the recent food and troop employment expenses, plus the war proceeds, the total remaining dinar is 1,200 dinars. I calculated correctly. You indeed only have that much left. You gave me 7,500 dinars before~~~]
Hmm, not bad. Russell thinks that he will gradually become rich through his business operations in grapes, so he is not too worried about his current financial situation.
However, King Haraus is so rich, maybe... why not? Try...
He came to his senses and continued to say to the king:
"His Majesty the King, thank you for your generosity, thank you for your generosity! I really want to treat you again and treat you to a sumptuous dinner in Uxhall! When I have money, I will definitely go and treat you in person.
Come on!"
King Haraus was a smart man and understood it on the spot. He cursed in his mind the baron in front of him. This damn guy played in a very fancy way. He had studied the art of language very well.
"I was in a hurry when I set out and didn't bring much food with me. But I think this bag of gold coins should be enough for you, Dracelle. Just think of it as my reward to you." After that, the king slowly took his hands from his waist.
He untied a bag and handed it to the attendant beside him. The attendant offered it with both hands and dedicated it to Russell.
[System prompt: This bag of gold coins is worth 1,500 dinars. Congratulations, there are currently a total of 2,700 dinars left.]
Seeing that this trick worked, Russell was ready to perform a hat trick and score three times! He wanted to get some more benefits back.
Just when he was about to continue speaking, he was cut off by the king. The king said:
"Okay, I'm a little tired. Please step back, Dracelle. I don't think you can help in the upcoming battle. Return to Uxhall as soon as possible and defend your territory."
"This...King, I have something to report to you. You should know that the enemy has a fearsome steppe Valkyrie."
"How could you not know that not only our kingdom, but all the kingdoms on the continent of Calradia have heard of this name? What's wrong?"
"She hopes to have a negotiation with you before the war begins."
"Okay, I understand... now step aside." The king fell into deep thought and waved for Drasser to leave.
Valkyrie Tianyan's words were also brought here with help. Now Dracelle was relieved and his worries were completely gone. He immediately decided to return to Uxhall in peace and contentment.
On the way back, seeing that Safiya was still silent and still angry and jealous, Ren started joking and prepared to make her happy.
"Ouch."
[I said, Baron, you were so shameless in front of the king just now. I was embarrassed to hear it, but you still had the nerve to continue talking.]
"What do you know? How much money is face worth? Without this bag of gold coins, how can I buy you milk and steak? You are really not a good person. I don't know how expensive firewood, rice, oil and salt are!"
"Ouch?"
[Obviously Safiya is in charge, why do you want credit? Baron, you are really ignorant.]
After hearing this, Russell seemed to understand its intention, and then changed his words:
"How can Safiya be called the boss!? She is... she is saving my life and yours. She is the benefactor of both of us, you little guy."
"Ouch!"
[Your life is a dog’s life! Watch your attitude, Baron! I’m hungry now, and your head looks delicious!]
"Safiya, it said it misses you. It misses being in your arms and drinking milk. How about you hold it for a while?"
"Ouch!"
[tmd, you actually dare to translate randomly! See if I don’t beat you up!]
Ren flapped his wings and deliberately knocked Drasel into Safiya.
Drasel understood this and pretended to be unable to dodge. The moment he fell off the horse, he jumped up suddenly, hugged Safiya from behind, and rode the same horse with her.
"Go down."
"I won't go down."
"Get down!"
"I won't do it! Ouch...it hurts so much!" Safiya saw him acting rogue and started to twist his ears.
"Baron, I heard that you are good at singing~"
"I...I know how to do it a little bit, oh, my dear Princess Safiya, it really hurts..."
"Okay, then you sing a song for me now, and I will let go of your ears. Whatever you sang for Ronnel, the queen, you can sing for me."
Russell's ears hurt now, so he can't remember the lyrics, so he can only make them up on the spot:
"The glass of red wine is shaking, the lips are like...like...You are so beautiful, Safiya, you are so beautiful...No matter how dangerous it is, I want to protect you...I want to take over your beauty!"
Although he sang intermittently, Safiya could tell that he was begging for mercy and making himself happy.
At this time, Russell held her hands from behind and hugged her tighter.
"Safiya, I really thank you for coming to save me. I will be nicer to you in the future..."
"No, I'm not forcing you to be nice to me." Safiya replied, releasing her hand from holding his ear.
"I am willing to be nice to you. In fact, I, I like..." Just as he was about to leave his mouth, Ren flapped his wings again, and slapped the Baron off the back seat with just a scratch.
"Ouch." Seeing the Baron falling to the ground in a panic, Renn grinned.
[This back seat is my special seat. If you want to chase her, your days will be long, hahaha.]
"Hey, you didn't do it lightly, Baron, are you not injured?" Seeing him rolling to the ground, Safiya became worried again.
"Hmm, I'm fine, I'm strong~" The baron secretly carried his injured arm behind his back, pretending to be calm.
But he was cursing secretly in his heart: You are so good, Ren, when I go back, I will add some laxatives to your steak and let you die on the green grassland...
The whole day passed quietly amidst the noise. Xiao Ming, a new arrival, was also very happy and very adaptable to the relaxed and pleasant way of communication between them.
Three days later, the group finally returned safely to the town of Uxhall.
The hired veteran standing guard at the door of the tavern recognized his master and his troops and said hello:
"Good morning, my master. As you can see, Uxhall is peaceful and harmonious."
"Very good, continue to stand guard." Drasel nodded slightly and led everyone back to the town.
At this moment, he looked at the little dragon Ren En who could fly in the sky and sighed:
tmd, you broke out of a dragon egg and grew up from a baby dragon to the present, but you have been exhausted from your labor. There may be many more stories that will happen in the future...
