Chapter 674: Cold sweat from fear (1)
Translator: 549690339
Standing on the deck of the peach source, Juno’s expression was extremely calm. Zhao Hai was standing beside him. They were currently sailing on the Ironhorse River.
The five-masted ironclad ship of the Jufeng family had suffered some damage during the battle and was now under repair. Therefore, they came out this time on Zhao Hai’s paradise.
The Iron Horse River was a large river that ran through the entire stupa Empire. It was wide and deep, and it was an important transportation lifeline for the stupa Empire.
The end of the Iron Horse was not far from the dwarf’s Iron Mountain, so transportation was very convenient. Zhao Hai and the others were on their way to the dwarf’s Iron Mountain.
It had been four days since they left the hurricane family’s territory. In about three days, they would be able to reach a place not far from the dwarf’s Iron Mountain.
Juno looked at the scenery on both sides of the river and sighed softly. &Quot; “I haven’t left the territory for many years. I wonder how my old friends are doing. Little hai, this time you want to do business with the dwarfs, so I can only introduce you to them. You know, the dwarfs are very stubborn. If they don’t want to do business with you, no one can change their mind. By the way, what do you want to do with them?”
Zhao Hai smiled. &Quot; of course, the dwarfs have the most ironware. I want to do ironware business with the dwarfs. I want to do it with wine. &Quot;
Juno was stunned for a moment, then laughed out loud.”Good boy, that’s a good idea. Those guys are all good at wine. If you use good wine to do business with them, they will definitely agree. Is it the kind of milk wine?”
Right now, Zhao Hai’s Taoyuan milk wine was in high demand on the continent, so Juno also knew about it. “Something like that,” Zhao Hai replied with a smile,”there are other wines that are even better than that milk wine.”
Juno smiled and said, ” that’s good. When doing business with the dwarves, there’s nothing more popular with them than wine. I’ve had that milk wine before. It’s not bad, it tastes very good. Especially that specially made top-grade milk wine. It tastes very good.“
The special top-grade milk wine that Juno was talking about was actually the kind of milk wine that was brewed with milk. This was because milk was much more fragrant and mellow than goat’s milk, so the wine that was made would also taste better. Of course, the special or top-grade wine were all used to scare the aristocrats. If you didn’t do this, you wouldn’t be able to show the difference between this kind of milk wine and ordinary milk wine.
Zhao Hai laughed. &Quot; if Grandpa Juno likes it, I can give you some. I’m the one who produced them anyway. It’s not a big deal. &Quot;
Juno smiled and said, ” sure. When we get back, save some for me. After drinking your wine, any other wine won’t have much taste. I have to say, you really know how to enjoy life. Look at the modifications you made to this ship. It’s even more comfortable than my house. &Quot;
Zhao Hai laughed. &Quot; it’s not that I feel comfortable staying at your place. There’s nothing to worry about. Unlike me, I have to run around every day. I’m tired. &Quot;
Juno laughed and scolded, ” stop acting in front of me, you little brat. Why are you complaining in front of an old man like me? alright, let’s not talk about this. The dwarves are actually very easy to get along with. However, there is one thing you can’t lie to them. If you dare to lie to them, they will definitely not let you off. &Quot;
Zhao Hai smiled. &Quot; don’t worry. I know that. I’ve dealt with the beastmen before. I know their characters. &Quot;
Juno laughed and said, ” good, it’s good that you can think that way. Oh right, remember, you can joke around with the dwarves as you wish. You can even make fun of their height and they won’t be angry. However, if you say that their ironware is not good, but you can’t say that it’s not good, then they will immediately fall out with you. &Quot;
Zhao Hai nodded. &Quot; okay, I’ll remember that. I won’t say anything. Most of these ironware are to be traded to the orcs. I don’t want all weapons, so I won’t do anything stupid. &Quot;
Juno nodded. The reason why he had warned Zhao Hai about this was because he was afraid that Zhao Hai would purposely say that the dwarfs ‘ironware was of poor quality in order to lower the price when doing business with the dwarfs. That would offend the dwarfs completely.
However, Juno told Zhao Hai that most of the ironware was traded with the orcs. He was very curious. Anyone with eyes could tell that the milk wine made by Zhao Hai was definitely related to the orcs. However, the strange thing was that the milk wine made by Zhao Hai was much better than the milk wine made by the orcs themselves. This was what puzzled him.
Juno looked at Zhao Hai and said,”you seem to have a good relationship with the beastmen?”
Zhao Hai smiled. &Quot; it’s alright. I have a good relationship with the Tauren tribe, dog-headed tribe, and the black bear tribe. Now, I have some business dealings with the Eagle tribe. I haven’t had much contact with the other tribes. &Quot;
Juno nodded, then turned to Zhao Hai with a half-smile. &Quot; &Quot; the Church of Light has suffered a huge loss in the Arkas Empire this time. Does this have anything to do with you? ”
Zhao Hai was taken aback. He then shook his head and said, ” &Quot; no, I only heard a little bit about the Church of Light in the Arkas Empire from the orc grasslands. I don’t know the details. You also know that I have a relationship with the Church of Light. How could they let me know about those things? my spies are not so powerful. I think you know what the matter in the Arkas Empire means to the Church of Light. Would they let people they don’t trust know the details? ”
Juno nodded his head. He believed Zhao Hai’s words. The Church of Light must have placed great importance on the situation in the Arkas Empire. Otherwise, they would not have sent a red cardinal to preside over the situation. However, the final defeat was rather baffling. It was as if every move of the Church of Light had been known by the orcs, and they had suffered a great loss.
No one on the continent had ever suspected Zhao Hai. However, to be honest, there were not many who did. Everyone on the continent knew that Zhao Hai had a grudge against the Church of Light. Naturally, the Church of Light knew about it as well. Under such circumstances, how could the Church of Light not be on guard against Zhao Hai?
Moreover, the Buda family was a new family, and they did not have a strong foundation. Furthermore, Zhao Hai had already fallen out with the Arkas Empire, so he did not have any influence in the Arkas Empire. Although he had a good relationship with the icksa family and the Versailles family, the icksa family had already left the Arkas Empire before the orcs could make a move. As for the Versailles Duchy, it had already been sacrificed by the Church of Light. They were of no help to Zhao Hai.
Under such circumstances, it was impossible for Zhao Hai to obtain the Church of Light’s specific plan. Therefore, after the war between the two races in the Arkas Empire, the Church of Light was puzzled about how they lost. However, the strange thing was that no one on the continent suspected Zhao Hai’s involvement in this matter.
When the Church of Light was learning from their failure, they had been investigating whether there was a traitor within their ranks. They had never suspected Zhao Hai. In their opinion, the Buda family might be strong in combat, but they were far from being able to gather information.
The people on the continent would never have thought of the existence of such a magical thing as space. They used the normal way of reasoning on the continent and naturally came to this conclusion.
Zhao Hai broke out in a cold sweat when Juno asked him this question. Fortunately, he was prepared and had thought of an excuse. He was not going to let anyone know about this. The fewer people knew that he had used the orcs to deal with the Church of Light, the better.
Although the humans on the continent hated the Church of Light, they still thought that the Church of Light was a human being. They were different from the orcs. If they knew that Zhao Hai had colluded with the orcs to deal with the Church of Light, Zhao Hai would become The Public Enemy of the entire race.
Fortunately, the orcs knew that only a few people had helped Zhao Hai. They only knew that a mysterious person had helped them. After all, Zhao Hai had also changed his appearance when he went to the orc camp.
If they really suspected this, the people on the continent might suspect the ark scriptwriter organization. After all, this organization was too mysterious. They only existed because they wanted to overturn the ark continent. They were capable of doing such a thing.
Juno was just asking casually and did not take it to heart. Even if he knew that Zhao Hai had used the orcs to deal with the Church of Light, he would not say anything. After all, the orcs were indeed attacking the Arkas Empire, and this matter was indeed caused by the Church of Light.
Furthermore, the people of the church of Light had actually wanted to deal with Chris, which was something that Juno could not tolerate. Juno had many children, and the Son that he had taken a fancy to the most was Chris’s father. In the future, Hong would be the one to take over the position of the hurricane family’s patriarch, and Chris was Juno’s favorite granddaughter. Therefore, the Church of Light’s move on Chris this time had really crossed Juno’s bottom line.
The Jufeng family was a family of good people, but it didn’t mean that they could tolerate such a thing. In the early days of the Jufeng family, the reason why they could stand firm in their territory was also due to their hard work. Although they looked like good people now, if their family was really activated, they would not be worse than any Millennium family. Even in terms of capital, they were not worse than any Millennium family. However, this was the ancestral teaching of their family. That was why their family had been able to maintain such a state of life.
Juno had previously said that it was not the time to deal with the Church of Light. In fact, he had already taken action over the past few days. He had already sent people to pick on a few churches of light in the stupa Empire. He did not let anyone from the Church of Light off.
Being a good person didn’t mean that he didn’t have a temper. If someone hit your left face and you moved your right face over to let them hit you, it didn’t mean that you were gentlemanly. It only meant that you were cheap.
Juno had told Zhao Hai that he did not want to touch the Church of Light for the time being because he did not want Zhao Hai to know about it. Juno was very clear about Zhao Hai’s hatred for the Church of Light. If he told Zhao Hai that he wanted to deal with the Church of Light, Zhao Hai would definitely help him. By then, things would get out of hand. The current situation was still within his control.
