Chapter Forty-Eight I Need some Hunks!

Although he didn't know what Gray's plan was, Xu Nan entrusted Lina to this high-ranking mercenary with confidence. novel .

It's not that other people's daughters don't feel bad, but that Xu Nan believes in Lina's strength.

If Gray really loves Li

Na has bad intentions, so the unlucky one is probably himself.

After all, these days, he has also vaguely learned about some horrible things about Miss Lina from Mr. Smith's insinuations, and he more or less knows the crimes he committed. Of course, these things that may be claimed by Paradise Lost, Xu Nan Absolutely will not admit it.

Anyway, he himself is neither good at lightning spells, nor does he know how to do dirty things like stealing underwear...

As for whether Lina will learn something bad from following Gray, Xu Nan is also very relieved.

After all, he has been in contact with Gray for so long, and he has not found any vices in him other than being stingy. At most, it is not a bad thing for a child to let her learn the ability to eat apples out of thin air!

...

In the next few days, Xu Nan wandered around in Wildfire City, seemingly doing nothing to kill time, but in fact it was pretty much the same.

After all, if Barnes didn't take the initiative to attack, he would be alone, and it would be difficult for him to take any countermeasures.

The Mudong Festival is just three days away, and the Wildfire City is unusually happy.

For the iceland people, Mudong Festival is a very important festival.

In Wildfire City, after the Mudong Festival, the coldest day of the year comes; many homeless poor people will choose to use up all their savings on this night, get drunk, and end up in the dark Among them, tremblingly walked towards the endless ice and snow.

Every year, hunters find similar ice sculptures in the wild of the ice sheet, and some of them will become food for ice sheet predators such as direwolves.

For this tradition, Xu Nan didn't feel particularly backward, but felt the free and easy of the Icefield people and the cruelty of Wildfire City.

It's too cold in the north.

Every year, in every northern city, people freeze to death, let alone a city like Wildfire City that is close to the backbone of the world.

Every winter is a catastrophe.

But this winter, it seems extra different.

First of all, the temperature did not drop to an unacceptable level before the arrival of the Mudong Festival. It seems that this winter is not cold; secondly, good news came from Wildfire City recently. The dispute within the clan has completely confirmed the right to speak of Master Barnes.

Although Barnes still believes that his father is the real patriarch, many people have privately called him Master Barnes. The outstanding son is under house arrest without seeing the light of day.

In this less bloody conflict, Barnes showed his thunderous methods and some unpredictable powers. He seemed to be omniscient, picking out every potential opponent and quickly cutting them off.

This method is frightening, and the Cebalon family has also united unprecedentedly. Even branches like Green have been summoned and ordered to participate in the management of some affairs. Of course, with his nine-point intelligence, he is currently being called The assigned job is a non-shit position like [foreign population registration agency].

Everyone knows that there are not many foreigners in Wildfire City.

And most importantly, the strength of Barnes has completely changed the decision of the Sebalon family that has been implemented for hundreds of years, that is, the policy of production and sales of Selon wine.

He began to expand the scope of the plantation, and even envisaged opening a second plantation near Wildfire City, increasing the production line of Seron wine at an astonishing speed.

It is speculated that he has already got a commitment from the Banta Port Chamber of Commerce, otherwise he would not have expanded production so easily.

In this way, the problems that have plagued Seron wine for many years will be solved. This high-end drink is about to enter the southern market in the Northland.

For ordinary people, this is great news!

At least that's what Xu Nan felt when he was wandering around the city.

The expansion of the plantation and the increase of the production line have directly led to an increase in the labor demand of the plantation. However, Barnes has always been generous to the employees, and many strong icelanders in the slums have been able to find jobs.

According to their estimates, the rewards they received could at least buy some firewood and bread to survive the severe cold after the Mudong Festival.

In fact, if the sales of Cyron wine are good in the coming year, the entire Wildfire City will change its previous economic depression.

"This year, so many compatriots will not starve to death or freeze to death."

"I will bring this city back to life, and I will make you rich."

"It's my dream and I've been doing it."

That's what Barnes said yesterday when he publicly announced a change in sales policy for Theron.

No matter what the other forces in the city think, the ordinary people are very happy.

Because of this decision by Barnes, they can keep them alive and their family can live, so that is enough.

For this difficult city, being alive is already the most extravagant wish of many people.

For a time, Barnes' personal popularity almost reached its peak.

Even though he immediately announced that Xu Nan would officially become the lord of Wildfire City after the Mudong Festival party, people were still chanting Barnes' name.

Although the people in the ice field did not reject Xu Nan, and even liked him a little under the seduction of his charisma, they only looked for this man who promised to give them bread and firewood.

In Wildfire City, every boy swears to draw a sword for Mr. Barnes, and every girl is secretly weaving a bracelet, hoping to present it to the generous Lord Barnes on the day of Muchon's Day.

"Letting people who don't have enough to eat to take care of the affairs of evil gods is still a fantasy after all."

"From another perspective, if that guy can really feed so many people, what's the point of just sitting on the sidelines?"

Xu Nan secretly shook his head.

His heart is heavy.

If at the beginning, he was only trying to win the position of the lord of Wildfire City for the sake of the emerald mine; now, he not only has to consider the issue of the person behind the Seron wine, but also how to lead this group of icelanders out of poverty and become rich... …

Sure enough, it is still difficult to support alone.

In the past few days, Xu Nan wanted to investigate some things, but found that they were both left and right.

Gray was sent by him to take care of the baby, so naturally he couldn't help; in fact, even if he was willing to help, Xu Nan didn't quite trust him, after all, this Mr. Mercenary was the only guy who knew his identity, ghost Know if he will notice something, or, use something as a threat to ask for more chips.

I am alone in a foreign land, and wanting to control a city with my bare hands is almost a dream.

Considering that he had to fight against the people of this city before that, the target of the group was still a legendary boss who guaranteed his bottom. Even though the Lion King was behind him, Xu Nan felt very guilty.

"Sure enough, we still have to continue shaking people!"

Returning to the empty city lord's mansion, after careful consideration, Xu Nan took out the unstable portal that he hadn't seen for a long time.

He decided to ask Evelyn Kaiser for some help.

Although he also knew that it was very difficult for Her Royal Highness the Fourth Princess to lead in Bingfeng, but she seemed to have withstood the attack of the demons, and it shouldn't be a problem to recruit a few capable fighters to help in the short term.

Big deal, sell her more hair tonic!

Xu Nan opened the unstable portal, without even thinking about it, he threw a note for help.

"Urgent help! I need some hunks!"

...

Ice wind collar. In the living room of the castle, it was also rarely lively today.

The few waiters were busy serving afternoon tea snacks, and curiously looked at the few guests who came to visit unexpectedly. Unfortunately, they all hid themselves in cloaks, which were tightly covered, and there were some people outside the hood. Bingxue obviously came here in a hurry.

The waiter didn't dare to look too much, and left quickly after serving the food.

In the living room, the temperature is not high, because Evelyn has always advocated saving, and the flame in her own fireplace is always half-dead, and even the other officials with Bingfeng collar only dare to burn half of the firewood in their homes. Bingfeng took the lead, even in the southern capital, it is an interesting story.

In addition to the fourth princess herself, there are also Chang Fengtuo, who has become the chief advisor of the Ice Wind Leader, as well as several officials and generals.

"...This time, apart from coming here to thank Her Royal Highness for your kindness, there is also a reminder from my tutor."

A thick voice sounded from under the cloak: "There is a plot against you in the south. This plot seems to be related to a red dragon that was active in the Northland hundreds of years ago."

Immediately, an official next to him asked nervously: "Master, what do you mean, there will be a red dragon attacking the Ice Wind Leader?"

The voice was silent for a while before continuing:

"This is the teacher's prediction."

"However, he can't be sure. The red dragon is sleeping deeply, and the other party's plot may not succeed."

Evelyn nodded reservedly, and smiled slightly:

"Thank you for your reminder, Master."

"I don't know if the few of you will stay in the Ice Wind Territory for a while longer?"

The voice was slightly apologetic:

"Although I also really want to help solve some problems in the ice wind collar, but this time I also have a task when I come out."

"Hmm, things in the south are urgent..."

As soon as he finished speaking, a drifting bottle suddenly jumped out of Evelyn's chest!

Evelyn blushed. How long has it been since this guy contacted her? Why is it so sudden today?

Before she could react, the drift bottle opened by itself, and a note floated out.

[Urgent help! I need some hunks! 】

Signed, Xu Nan.

The man in the cloak widened his eyes and grabbed the note.

Evelyn coughed for a long time before the other party returned the note to Evelyn.

"Then I won't keep a few masters..."

She was obviously absent-minded, clutching the note and thinking about something.

As a result, the other party suddenly took off the cloak and said seriously:

"It's the unstable portal, isn't it?"

"Brother Xu Nan is asking you for help?"

"What trouble is he having? Can you contact him?"

Evelyn tentatively said:

"It's Mr. Xu Nan...it's just the south..."

The opponent waved his hand:

"There's no rush for things in the south."

Everyone looked at each other, not knowing what to say for a while.
