Beneath the Upper City

No one knows when it began—

But the world was split in two.

Those in the Upper City live in the sunlight, on vast lands, warm and free.

Those in the Lower City survive in a cram...

Chapter 449: Ernst

The headquarters will definitely send someone to pick up Ernst.

But before leaving, Ning Fan had to find a way to calm him down.

There is a soul-suppressing weapon in the blood show.

After sending Ernst away, Ning Fan finally found Alfonso outside the battlefield.

Alfonso left some soldiers in the north of the city and rode over at full speed.

He was quite panicked.

If [The Road to Grace] was blown up, his heart would probably stop for a few minutes.

Fortunately, I left someone at home!

Seeing that Qi Huan had stabilized the situation, Alfonso finally felt relieved.

But just when he breathed a sigh of relief, he saw Ning Fan walking towards him with a smile.

Seeing Ning Fan, Alfonso's mood inexplicably became bad again.

"Sorry, Commander Alfonso!"

Ning Fan had a smile on his face, but it didn't stop him from apologizing. "Ernst rushed towards the [Path of Grace] like crazy, and my men couldn't stop him."

Alfonso said nothing.

Ning Fan looked back at the battlefield. "But I didn't expect the ordinary people in the west of the city to be so united and united. Everyone is a soldier!"

This guy's mouth is so fucking annoying!

Ning Fan emphasized the four words "ordinary people", clearly looking like he saw through everything but refused to say anything.

This made Alfonso feel even worse.

He couldn't say anything back and could only endure Ning Fan's sarcastic tone.

"My people have started cleaning up the battlefield."

Ning Fan looked at the battlefield: "But...why don't I see Ernst?"

Alfonso was also watching the battlefield.

He didn't see Ernst either.

"I don't know where he went."

He pointed to a man covered in blood on the battlefield and said, "He's Ernst's adjutant. When we catch him, we'll ask him."

"Um."

Ning Fan nodded calmly: "Ernst, I want it."

Alfonso frowned.

This is not a discussion or communication.

It was as if she had made a decision and just came to inform him.

This attitude made him very dissatisfied.

From the first time he called Ning Fan, he could feel that he had absolute initiative.

Whether to cooperate with Ning Fan depends on his attitude.

But as the plan progressed, he gradually felt that he was being led by Ning Fan.

Now, Ning Fan even dares to make decisions directly.

Alfonso turned his head to look at Ning Fan and said leisurely, "Ernst is the commander assigned by Region G to Yefengkou. He is very valuable!"

Even though Alfonso didn't think Ernst was important before, now that Ning Fan wanted him, he had to fight for him.

This has little to do with interests; what’s important is face.

The face of the commander, the face of Region E.

What do you want? I'll give you that.

Who indulges your bad habits?

Ning Fan smiled and said, "Yes, it's very valuable."

"Ning Fan, we agreed before that the spoils here belong to you, but it seems that this does not include Ernst, right?"

Alfonso smiled and said, "You can't treat a dignified commander as a trophy, right?"

Ning Fan finally turned around and looked at him.

"Name your price!"

Alfonso narrowed his eyes.

He could feel Ning Fan's "desire" for Ernst.

It would be a shame not to take advantage of this opportunity.

"[Path of Grace]."

Alfonso's eyes fixed: "The one in the north of the city."

"hehe."

Ning Fan smiled helplessly and said, "Commander Alfonso, you are sleepy."

Alfonso was stunned.

Ning Fan smiled and said, "How about you go back and catch up on some sleep first, and then we can talk when you wake up?"

"Don't beat around the bush. Just say what you want to say."

Alfonso said in a deep voice: "Ernst is not only what you want, I want him too. Now you want me to give him to you for nothing, it's not appropriate."

"That wouldn't be worth exchanging for a [Path of Grace], right?"

Ning Fan pointed at the battlefield and said, "Bring Ernst here and let him decide for himself whether he's worthy of a [Path of Grace]."

Alfonso is no fool either.

He certainly didn't think that Ning Fan would accept the conditions he proposed.

Just like Ning Fan's previous conversation with Xia Qing, Alfonso just wanted to raise the price first and then give Ning Fan room to bargain.

Ernst would never have thought that he, a commander, would be put on the shelf and treated as a commodity for bargaining by two people.

"As for the [Road of Grace] in the north of the city, we've already agreed that my people will be responsible for management, and yours will be responsible for sorting. I think this distribution is reasonable, and there's no need for any changes."

Ning Fan said softly.

Alfonso frowned, obviously still somewhat unwilling to accept this distribution.

Ning Fan didn't give him a chance to regret, but continued, "Give me Ernst. I'll give you 5% of the share of the [Road of Grace] in the east of the city every year for three years."

Alfonso blinked.

Three years, 5% share per year.

That doesn't sound like a lot.

However, the annual output of the entire [Road of Grace] is not low.

Getting 5% for free may not be a big deal for a large region, but for an individual, it is a very tempting profit!

"Are you sending away beggars?"

Even though he knew the value of this condition, Alfonso still had no intention of giving in.

Ning Fan smiled: "Commander Alfonso, don't be too greedy, it's not a small amount."

"not enough!"

Alfonso was firm.

The reason why he dared to reject Ning Fan so directly was because he could see that Ning Fan needed Ernst!
