Besides, he had to pay 300 dinars first, which made all the mercenary teams that wanted to recruit him unhappy.
It is precisely because of this that Aileyen's savings have been spent bit by bit. Now if he does not find a job, he will face the dilemma of starving to death.
How could it be possible to ask him to do odd jobs? He was a nobleman, how could he do the work of commoners? So he had the arrogance of a nobleman but could not enjoy the treatment of a nobleman.
“Actually, you can pay the three hundred dinars later. It doesn’t matter if you can’t pay it now.
All you have to do is to come up with three hundred dinars within a month, but you still have to pay me my weekly salary as usual.
In this case, it is not impossible." Airen lowered his head for the first time, temporarily putting aside his noble pride.
Now he had to do this in order to survive. If he didn't agree, Aileyon would probably starve to death.
Wals looked at his attire. As a fallen noble, he could understand his feelings. The only difference was that Wals had been accustomed to living like a commoner since he was a child, so his aristocratic arrogance was not as serious as Airen's.
"Okay, it's a deal then." Perhaps it was because they were both nobles, or perhaps it was because Wales was impressed by Airen's talent, but in any case Wales agreed to Airen's request.
But because Walls made this decision, he gained a loyal general in the future.
"In that case, can I go have a meal with your subordinates?"
Airen said, and then in order to cover up his difficulty, he continued: "This will help you to improve your relationship with your subordinates, right?"
Walls smiled knowingly and nodded.
Wals knew that Aileyon hadn't eaten for a long time.
Owens really couldn't understand why his boss would spend a lot of money to invite a noble lord to have a meal with him.
But Walls had just invited him to dinner, so he didn't know what to say and just ate his meal. Seeing that Owens didn't say anything, the other Nord recruits didn't say much either and followed Owens' example.
Seeing this scene, Walls secretly breathed a sigh of relief. He was worried that Ailen would have conflicts with these Nord recruits. If this happened.
Looking at the scene, De La Ser muttered, "Humph, his Owens is not as kind as me! My Owens is a real good brother."
[System prompt: That’s enough, brother. Are you tired? ]
Well, Walls is still a headache, but it's still very gratifying to see Airen put aside his pride and not cause trouble.
Although he did not find an old soldier to join his team, it was a good thing for him to invite a young nobleman to join his team. Moreover, this nobleman was also a master of swordsmanship.
So, Walls started to worry about one thing again: money!
Without money, Wals would starve to death. Almost everyone on the continent was worried about money, and those lords started wars largely because of money.
Although Wals only had 500 dinars on him at this time, it was still far from enough.
He came here to seek a living not just for the five hundred dinars; that was not his goal. Before his death, his father had told him that he should restore his family if he had the chance.
His current strength is still not enough. If he wants to restore his family, he needs to obtain a fiefdom, and to obtain the fiefdom he needs to be loyal to the king.
However, the king would not do a business that would lose money. He would only grant a warrior a fiefdom and let the warrior expand his territory to gain more benefits.
Of course, most people are willing to do this deal most of the time. Turning a commoner into a noble is something they wish for, isn't it?
What Walls has to do is to get the king's recognition, so before that he needs to make some name for himself.
Defeating some large bandit groups and becoming a mercenary to fight for the king can both make you famous, which also means that you have a chance to be recognized by the king and have the opportunity to obtain a fiefdom.
Judging from the current situation, hunting down bandits is the only thing we can do now, as the equipment of bandits is not as good as that of regular troops.
It is easier to eliminate them than regular troops.
If you want to be a mercenary for the king, you need a regular army, and building such an army requires a lot of money. Therefore, hunting bandits is the only thing worthwhile now.
Now that the target has been set, we need to start looking for the robbers. There will be many robber wanted posters posted on the walls of the tavern.
When a person or a group of people kills the bandit leader on a wanted order, they will receive a bounty. The amount of the bounty is determined by the person who issued the wanted order.
It is also this person who pays the bounty. Usually, the person who issues the wanted order is the mayor of the town.
The mayor manages town affairs for the lord, while the lords usually do not care about things and use their spare time to do what they like. Of course, the lords will firmly grasp the leadership of the army.
Therefore, the burden of managing the town's affairs falls on the shoulders of the mayor. Judging from the wanted poster on the tavern, the mayor of Sagos seems to be in a lot of trouble.
The walls were covered with wanted posters, which was enough to show how many bandits there were nearby.
These bandit groups can have as many as several hundred people, and ordinary small lords cannot defeat them. The smallest groups can have as few as dozens of people, and these bandit groups are the prey of various bounty hunters.
And now Walls saw a good prey.
The Roaming Bandits, bounty 200 dinars. A bandit group that roams the borders of Kulau and Sagos, with about 20 members.
Wals smiled when he saw the wanted poster. This was the kind of bandit he needed right now, and he happened to be on his trade route. How could he not be happy?
But Walls did not look away immediately, but patiently read all the wanted posters.
He needed to learn about the bandit groups that often appeared on his trade routes and come up with countermeasures.
After a long time, the thoughtful Wals finally came to his senses. He counted and found that there were exactly ten bandit groups on the trade route he had set.
These bandit groups are big and small. The big ones have hundreds of people, while the small ones, like the Rangers bandit group, have only dozens of people.
The baron just thought it was funny and said sinisterly: "I say, system, this poor boy has to rely on robbing bandits to make a living, isn't it a bit bad? Why would the emperor be interested in such a person?"
[System prompt: You are not allowed to say that my Chuhuang has a problem with his vision. Besides, you have also committed robbery! ]
It seems to make sense, the pot calling the kettle black when you're fifty steps ahead, hmmm...
In any case, in order to survive and get rich quickly, many people take risks to do business, and Walls has to do the same, otherwise he really can't think of any safe and reliable way to get enough money.
Being a mercenary or a bounty hunter requires a certain amount of military strength. To put it simply, you need an elite army, and building and supporting an elite army requires a lot of money.
In this case, the first thing you need to do is to do business to get rich quickly.
Having decided on his development goal, Walls turned around and was ready to have a good meal. After all, he should fill his stomach first.
He plans to set off for Wocheze tomorrow.
"Guys, we're going to be on the road tomorrow, so you can eat better today." Walls shouted to his companions unceremoniously while sitting on a chair.
“Got it, boss,” Owens was the first to shout, his mouth still caked with sauce.
"Okay sir, I hope you can return my money to me as soon as possible." Airen put down the fork in his hand and said.
This statement was met with contempt from everyone. Owens and his gang of new recruits looked down on this fallen noble. A poor bastard.
Walls quickly noticed the expressions of his recruits and hurried out to mediate.
"Don't make trouble. We will be partners fighting side by side in the future."
Out of respect for Walls, Owens didn't take it seriously, so they pretended not to hear it.
Seeing this situation, Airen was tactful and didn't say much, but it was still obvious that he still maintained his noble arrogance.
As for the discord within his team, Walls could only slowly improve it through daily interactions.
Walls secretly estimated that with his abilities he would be able to maintain a team size of around 50 people.
If there are more than 50 people, he may not have enough energy to mediate these conflicts.
"What a poor fellow! At most, I had nearly 100 brothers, and I never saw them quarrel. They all called me their honorable master."
At this time, De La Serre laughed at Walls again.
[System prompt: But he married the Emperor of Chu, what about you? ]
What? I’m not the one who’s jealous. I have Safiya, what about you?
[System prompt: Very good, please continue the game. ]
In this way, they will leave you halfway, and if you want to increase the size of your troops, you will have to improve your own capabilities.
Of course, the way Walls improves his abilities is different from the Baron's. He cannot rely on the shameless system to increase his command ability.
Only by relying on your own daily training can you have a chance to become stronger.
There was a huge gap between the two at the beginning. The Baron had never suffered any hardship. As the lord of the town of Uxhall, he soon obtained the help of the dragon clan.
On the other hand, Walls is just a poor traveler and cannot be called a qualified conqueror.
