Starting Today, I’ll Work as a City Lord

The earthquake caused Niu Wu, Spencer and others to look up to the southeast. After a while, they saw hundreds of orc knights rushing towards here.

"The orc tribe is coming." Niu Wu raised his eyebrows, his face was solemn, the opponent's army was very strong, and there were three hundred orc knights by visual estimation.

"Don't panic, it's not the enemy." Spencer turned to appease the civilians behind him.

The flustered civilians gradually calmed down, but the fear in their eyes did not dissipate. The sound of the roaring horseshoes made people feel uneasy.

...

Ten minutes ago, Elsa's orc team.

"Your Highness, you don't need to come in person, just let me negotiate with the human race." A monkey female orc said helplessly.

"Qiluo, this is the first important negotiation between us and the human race. There must be no mistakes. This is related to whether our tribe can continue to develop." Elsa said seriously, and the development of the orc tribe was completely stopped.

Especially salt, they have no salt channels at all, and the human caravan does not do business with them, this is the biggest crisis.

Moreover, she also got news that there is also a shortage of salt in the human race, and the current price of salt has been raised to fifty copper coins per catty.

Now that a human nobleman is willing to do business with them, she has to let go of some prejudices. However, she knew that most of her subordinates didn't like the human race. If she didn't come, the human race would make some excessive demands, which would irritate her subordinates in all likelihood.

"But you are a princess, and the other party is just a little baron, shouldn't you let him go to our tribe to talk?" Qi Luo said angrily, she thought it was disrespectful to Her Royal Highness.

Qi Luo is a monkey orc. She has long brown hair, brown eyes, and wears a set of iron armor. Her whole body exudes a heroic temperament. She is the head of Elsa's bodyguard. She is very powerful and good at using spears. She fights with Elsa all the year round.

"We are losers, and now we have to start from the beginning, we must have the attitude of starting from the beginning." Elsa said lightly, she knew that Qi Luo's temper was just a violent temper and restless nature, if she was asked to negotiate, it would be very likely Eight or nine have to talk about collapse.

What she needs most now is a stable channel to sell the draft horses and sheep in the tribe, even if she suffers a little loss, otherwise she will not come here in person.

"That's a natural disaster, otherwise, Her Royal Highness has already opened up a large area of ​​territory, at least taking hundreds of cities." Qi Luo shouted a little emotionally.

Before the natural disaster, Elsa led the orc knights and had already plundered dozens of cities. If there hadn't been a sudden heavy snowstorm, I'm afraid that several surrounding kingdoms would be laid down a large area of ​​territory, or one or two kingdoms might be annexed.

"That's in the past tense. Now we have to feed the citizens first..." Elsa said indifferently, with a veil on her face, making it impossible to see any emotions.

Be it natural disasters or man-made disasters, everything has failed. Reminiscing about the glory of the past will only make people angry and disappointed, and will not help the present in the slightest.

"..." Qi Luo knew that she had made a slip of the tongue, and quickly changed the subject, "His Royal Highness, do we want to give the people a little bit of power? Maybe the other party will be a little more afraid during the negotiation."

"Oh?" Elsa was stunned for a moment, then turned her head and glanced at the orc knights around her. This time she picked the most elite knights from the orc tribe, just to prevent the human race from cheating.

She thought about it, and thought that it would be beneficial to show off our strength, and said a little bit, "Yes, but don't go too far, lest people think we are too barbaric."

"No, how could it be?" Qi Luo quickly waved her hand, disapprovingly said, "If we are too serious, I'm afraid we will scare the human race to the ground."

"Ha ha ha ha……"

Qi Luo's words made the surrounding orc knights laugh. They have seen many human caravans, and they scare people to pee before they come forward.

Elsa shook her head, and didn't say anything. With her restraining her, she wasn't afraid of causing trouble among her subordinates. After all, she was here to negotiate, not to fight.

"By the way, when it's time, don't call me the princess, call me the leader." Elsa warned, she didn't want to reveal her identity.

"Understood." Qi Luo nodded quickly, and the surrounding knights also responded, "Yes."

"Boss, there are still more than ten kilometers before we reach Heishui City." The orc knight who was exploring the way came back to report.

The orc knights who are exploring the way should first check around the Blackwater City to see if there is an ambush by the human race. The orcs are the highest level of vigilance against the human race.

"Okay, get ready to speed up." Elsa waved her hand and took the lead in galloping the horse.

"drink!"

"drive!!"

Chapter 0593 Elsa's invitation.

"Tat Tat Tat..."

The ground shook, and more than 300 orc knights charged towards Heishui City. The deafening sound of horseshoes and the momentum of the impact made the civilians at the gate of Heishui City shrink their necks, and finally ran away crying.

Niu's five-eyed pupil shrunk slightly, looking at the galloping orc knight, his face was a little ugly, the other party was trying to give them a big blow.

"Lord Niu, step back." The soldier gripped the Tang saber at his waist and hurriedly guarded Niu Wu.

"No, back down." Niu Wu waved his hand, he can't back down, it's about the young master's face, he is now the spokesperson of Xiyang City.

"That's really brutal..." Spencer sighed, but he didn't take a step back. He no longer feared death, so he couldn't worry about Hiran. He was too tired.

"Hey..."

"Tata...Tata..."

The orc knights stopped when they were four or five meters away from Niu Wu, Spencer and the others. The impact and dust brought by the orc knights rolled towards Niu Wu and the others.

The dust cleared, only Niu Wu, six soldiers, Spencer and a few knights remained at the gate of Heishui City, and the civilians retreated into the city in fright.

"Oh? You're brave." Qi Luo's brown eyes scanned the people in front of her, and stayed for a few seconds on the equipment on the soldiers, giving her the impression that they were elite.

"Mr. Niu Wu, is your city lord here?" Elsa asked, her golden eyes scanning around.

"Your Excellency, the young master hasn't arrived yet, please go to the city to rest." Niu Wudan said with a smile, "It should be coming soon, please wait for a while."

"There is no need to enter the city, we can just rest outside the city." Qi Luo answered immediately, if it was dangerous to enter the city, the mobility of the orc knight would be restricted.

"Yes." Niu Wu nodded, he didn't force it, after all, the owner here is still Spencer.

"Your Excellency, I am ready to rest in the city, please move into the city." Spencer said hastily. As the Lord of Blackwater City, he cannot lose some etiquette.

"No, there are more people under my command, so I won't cause trouble." Elsa said coldly, she nodded to Qi Luo, signaling to set up camp.

She didn't enter Heishui City because she wanted to assign the home court to the camp she had set up, one for safety and two for the home court advantage, so that she would not be a guest.

"Camp!!!" Qi Luo yelled loudly, and their logistics also drove hundreds of sheep over, and they brought sheepskins with them. They only need to chop some wood and put on sheepskins to form a tent, which is simple and fast.

Elsa turned her horse's head and headed towards the east of Heishui City. There was an open area there, just right for camping, and the Heishui River was beside it.

"Your Highness, the other party didn't come, so our aggressiveness has no effect." Qi Luo said a little annoyed.

"It doesn't matter." Elsa waved her hand, and she didn't care about the ineffectiveness of getting off the horse. She was thinking about how to negotiate with the other party. This time, she must have a lot of salt. If there are ironware, she should also buy some.

Even, she was willing to exchange war horses. The tribe eats salt too fast. After all, it is a tribe with tens of thousands of people, and it can use up several catties of salt in a day.

Especially the meat boiled in salt water, if you don't add more salt, the sheep will not taste good, it will be tasteless and smelly. Especially these days, she is used to that canned fish, which made her know what food is.

The orcs quickly went to cut wood, and the orcs went to meet the logistics team that followed, mainly to fetch sheep and prepare today's dinner. It was around three o'clock in the afternoon, and there were still a few hours left before dark.

"Mr. Niu Wu, what should we do now?" Spencer turned his head and asked, he had already prepared the house, but the orcs didn't seem to believe them very much.
