The Road to Beginning Chapter 168: Grima Strategy

    It wasn't that Hu Bin had a conscience and was ready to let Grima go, but that the sudden reminder from the space made him a little overwhelmed.  "It has been detected that the plot character Grima in the Lord of the Rings world has actively defected. The space prompts the number 000003 to agree or not, yes/no. Note that the loyalty of the attachment task is too low, which may lead to rebellion." This is what Hu Bin suddenly left.  Because of his hand, through the information given in the space prompt, he could clearly detect Grima's attribute information. What is surprising is that this traitor is actually quite capable.  Grima did not become the prime minister of the Kingdom of Rohan by relying on some of Saruman's charm spells. Although this guy framed and excluded a large number of knights loyal to the king in the later period of his reign, and almost put King Th¨¦oden under house arrest, this did not  cover up his outstanding political abilities.  Before gaining Th¨¦oden¡¯s trust and becoming the prime minister of the Kingdom of Rohan, Grima also used his own efforts to rise from a consultant step by step.  Not only did he serve as the kingdom's diplomatic ambassador and visited Gondor, but he also served as the finance minister to save the Kingdom of Rohan from a treasury crisis. He had indeed managed the Kingdom of Rohan in an orderly manner before, and his reputation in the country was quite good. This is why he  The reason there was so much support even after the treason was exposed.  As for why Grima ignored the power in his hands and took the risk to help Saruman enchant King Th¨¦oden, everything may be because of the word love.  Grima had madly pursued the princess of the Rohan Kingdom before, but unfortunately his face was too long for the audience. The warlock's research also made Grima's temperament tend to be obscene and dark.  Although he has outstanding abilities, he is still unable to match the discernment of the princess. He pursues to no avail and is a typical hard-biter who turns to hatred due to love. It can be said that the royal family of Rohan destroyed half of their country. King Th¨¦oden will probably do the same after he wakes up.  I felt guilty about Grima, so I didn't execute him.  Governmental skills are full, property is proficient, and diplomacy is proficient.  Passionate, with excellent magic talent.  After seeing these attribute descriptions, Hu Bin had forgotten about killing people to get rewards. If it weren't for the mere 39 points of loyalty reminding Hu Bin, he would have shown a greedy expression of wanting to eat people.  Just like Gerdan in the war group world, the plot characters in the mission world will become followers when they take the initiative to join. In particular, followers who have the ability to help the numbered person manage the internal affairs are particularly rare. Such people are often in the world.  With a distinguished status and huge power support, it is difficult to surrender to the numbered one.  The recruitment restrictions for such characters in space are based on their loyalty. For example, the loyalty of Okov, the elite Ithilian ranger captain, after voluntarily joining him is 85 points, which is still 15 loyalty points short of the full value.  Hu Bin only needs to use double 30 points to fill the part of the loyalty distance to make him his follower. Otherwise, Okov can only exist as an ordinary soldier and cannot enjoy it.  To the follower¡¯s growth characteristics and resurrection ability.  Looking at Grima lying on the ground, Hu Bin felt a headache.  Even one of his ratings was not enough. Although he made a fortune after killing a large number of enemy numberers, there were too many high-end items that needed to be redeemed in this world.  Hu Bin spent a lot of effort to learn to use the scorching chain, and now it is very easy to use as the main weapon.  Although the ogre's big club can't be used by himself, the rare-level weapon is very rare. If he sells it, the profit will be very considerable.  Not to mention the Silver Moon.  The port of the numberers was still far away from the time when large warships were produced. Hebrew and others were very keen on this warship, and even asked Hu Bin many times if he had any intention of changing hands, but even the goddess did not  He personally gave the ship its name.  Hu Bin wouldn't dare to abandon the ship even if he had ten thousand courages.  As well as the mithril armor being built in the Blue Mountains and some bits and pieces, Hu Bin was already stuck in a difficult decision.  Recruiting Grima requires a full score of 122 points. This is probably a value obtained by Grima sincerely begging for mercy under the threat of death. After he ensures his own life safety.  It's unclear how far this value will drop. Judging from the current relationship between him and Hu Bin, it would be strange if the loyalty does not drop to a negative value.  (Above 100 is constantly solidified as die-hard loyalty. 80 to 100 is loyalty, 60 to 80 is obedience to orders, 40 to 60 is a certain chance of being incited to rebel, 0 to 40 is likely to rebel, and below 0 is hostility. The last two items are generally in  Appeared on characters who were forced to surrender after being captured) "Grima, Grima, what should I do with you?" Hu Bin had been mumbling this question more than once along the way, but in the end Hu Bin still didn't respond immediately.  Conquering Grima, because conquering Grima at that time would not only lose the rating reward brought by a side task, but also consume a large amount of additional rating value, which was a bit outweighed by the gain.  Hu Bin had no choice but to take Grima with him first. Whether he would kill him to get a reward or conquer him ruthlessly would depend on how far his loyalty would eventually grow.  Sure enough, Grima, who became a prisoner, only surrendered temporarily. After recovering from the fear of death, his loyalty immediately dropped to single digits, and his angerHu Bin almost couldn't help but chop him with a knife.  However, being caught alive is not without profit. Grima accumulated a lot of wealth during his tenure as the prime minister of Luohan, and also had a huge information network in Luohan. If he had not taken the initiative to find Hu Bin, there would be no one in Luohan.  John's chances of finding him were really slim.  But now all this belongs to Hu Bin. In order to redeem himself, Grima had to expose several of his treasure hiding spots and share part of his intelligence network with Hu Bin.  Hu Bin and his group were on their way to one of the treasure caches. Although Hu Bin knew that this was only a small part of Grima's private collection, it was an unexpected gain in the first place. He was not picky, as long as he could conquer it in the end.  Grima, unless these things are returned, they all belong to you.  After being captured, Grima also understood who he was defeated by. Faced with Hu Bin, who commanded a group of Ithilian rangers, his ragtag group was not unjustly defeated. The two were like unworthy little people.  It's like a merchant encountering the urban management team.  "Is this the property you are talking about?" Looking at the wheat seeds, cloth, iron ingots and other items piled up in a warehouse, Hu Bin's eyes twitched violently. Could it be that he had led people to run hard for a day?  , what you get are these materials that are difficult to take away?  "What do you think is property? A room full of gold coins? With the war going on right now, you can definitely exchange a room full of gold coins for the supplies in this warehouse." Grima was angered by Hu Bin's attitude, but he didn't.  You're wrong, now is the time when the battle between humans and orcs is heating up.  Many strong men have been conscripted into the army to fight, and the production of the human kingdom has basically come to a standstill. This room of supplies is extremely valuable at the current price.  But even though he said that, these materials were of little use to Hu Bin. He would eventually return to space. If he couldn't exchange these things for gold coins of equivalent value, he would have no choice but to let these things rot here.  "Are there not all these supplies in other places?" Hu Bin asked Grima with expectation, but in the end he got an answer that disappointed him. Grima's good economic vision allowed him to put all the supplies together.  All property was invested in hoarding supplies.  "Then what do you rely on to maintain your power? Do you rely on these iron blocks and grain and cloth?" Hu Bin asked unwillingly.  "Of course it's the funds obtained from selling these materials in small quantities. They don't have enough wealth to let me pay with materials." Grima said with arrogance, but his words gave Hu Bin a glimmer of hope.  "What about the sales channel? Sell all the supplies in the shortest possible time for cash." Hu Bin's mood immediately turned from cloudy to clear.  "No way, I will never do this kind of loss-making business." Grima said angrily. The large-scale selling of materials will inevitably lead to a drop in prices, which will invisibly reduce the total value of his wealth.  Having been the minister of property for half his life, he was very persistent in his interests. His stubbornness that he would rather die than surrender made Hu Bin helpless. Why didn't he see him so willing to die rather than surrender when he begged for mercy before?  "Do you think hoarding these supplies will allow you to live a carefree life?" Hu Bin saw that he could not convince this guy, so he decided to persuade him in other ways.  "What do you mean?" Grima saw that Hu Bin was not around and forced him to sell supplies.  From the state of a crazy miser, he returned to the state of a cautious and taciturn prisoner.  "Humans and Orcs will eventually fight, but I am not optimistic about the human side. You know this very well, otherwise you would not have fallen to Saruman so easily." Grima heard Hu Bin say this  There was silence after that.  It was regarded as acquiescing to his statement.  "After the failure of mankind, how will the Demon Lord Sauron rule Middle-earth? I think you also know what a cruel race the Orcs are. They are not engaged in production. They are good at enslaving and plundering. Do you think they will do it because you have done it for them before?  Doing things and letting you live comfortably on hidden supplies? No, they will take away your wealth and turn you into their slave until you are worthless and eaten by them as food. This is what you do.  Looking forward to the future." After Hu Bin finished speaking, he ignored him, and Grima also fell into deep contemplation, and did not object to Ted's move to move and load these supplies to nearby cities for sale.  "Then how will you face such a future?" Grima's voice was very soft, but Hu Bin still keenly captured this sentence.  "If I can't stay in Middle-earth anymore, I will take my men to a safe place." Hu Bin's words made Grima fall into silence again, but he soon spoke again.  "You are talking about the Western Continent, but I heard that humans are not welcome there. How do you bring your humans there." Grima wanted to refute Hu Bin, but found that there was no reason to come up with.  "That's my business, if?If you are willing to work under me, I may consider giving you a place for asylum.  "Hu Bin did not explain Grima's misunderstanding, but revealed his true purpose, but was quickly rejected by Grimma. Anyway, it was an expected reaction, and Hu Bin did not respond to the update.  He was angry at Grima's rejection. After all, he didn't expect to win over Grima in one go. However, the reminder from the space told him that Grima's loyalty had increased a lot. Although it had not reached the previous level, it was not impossible after all.  With a little hope of subjugation, Grima still listened to Hu Bin's words. This can be seen from his proactive disclosure of several nearby places to store supplies, and Grima's intelligence organization in Rohan also took it into account.  The information gradually gathered into Hu Bin's hands, allowing him to obtain maximum benefits when selling supplies, much faster than before. If Grima did not do anything in the middle, no one would believe it.  Hu Bin found that he was not sure what Grima was thinking now. Hu Bin and his team traveled around various large towns in Luohan for a month, replacing most of the supplies that Grima had hoarded.  The gold coins have even made a name for themselves in the Kingdom of Rohan. The nobles of Rohan have heard rumors that there is a caravan traveling around Rohan selling in-demand supplies, although their prices are not too high.  It's fair, but there is never a shortage of goods. This rumor made the senior officials of major cities in the entire Rohan Kingdom prepare gold coins and wait eagerly for this legendary caravan, and Hu Bin also came again at this time.  Rohan's capital. Hu Bin, who returned to his hometown, found that Rohan's Golden Dome was still the same. The king's expedition did not affect the prosperity here. After defeating Saruman, Rohan's business was no longer obstructed by the orcs.  It became extremely smooth, and even the bandit gangs Hu Binzhe encountered in a month were made up of humans. The orcs seemed to have disappeared here. Human beings' adaptability made them habitually forgetful, and the people in the capital seemed to have forgotten.  After the tragic sacrifice of Helm's Deep, the women who lost their husbands and sons re-established families with other men, or raised the children left at home alone, and returned to ordinary life. The smoke of war gradually dissipated in the meeting, and Hu Bin  The previous worry could no longer be seen on the faces of the civilians. They had to admit that this situation was not a bad thing. The only sequela of the war to the people in the capital was the shortage of supplies. Most of the supplies were prioritized for the expedition.  The army began to be short of various items, and the people in the capital were no exception. Fortunately, they finally ushered in the legendary caravan and the rangers drove a group of people into the city.  He and Ted were left not far outside the city to guard Grima, and the people who drove the car were composed of members of Grima's caravan. The former prime minister's performance has improved a lot during this period, maybe because of it.  When Luo Han's people were living and working in peace and contentment, he recalled the situation when he was in power. Hu Bin's dumping plan received his active support, and Hu Bin was not afraid of this guy's tricks. In fact, this month.  Now, Grima's loyalty is close to the limit of 60 points, and it continues to rise.  And Hu Bin's plan to conquer him before returning to space is just around the corner.  The veteran guarding the gate vaguely recognized Hu Bin's appearance, and let the convoy in without too much entanglement. Then a large number of civilians gathered to watch, which made Hu Bin, who had not changed his face in the face of the orc army, a little unable to bear it.  These people can't wait to start making big purchases.  Nobles enjoy certain privileges at all times. An affairs officer first approached Hu Bin's caravan and took away two-thirds of the goods at a relatively fair price, including all iron ingots and some grain and cloth.  , and the rest is left to the residents of the city.  Hu Bin's good reputation in Luohan made the transfer of funds very efficient. Soon, residents of the capital received the news that the caravan had begun selling grain, cloth and various spices, and they started carrying large and small bags of containers.  Purchase it.  After Hu Bin received the purchases from the nobles as usual, he handed over other retail work to the members of Grima's caravan, and he gathered with his subordinates outside the city.  Because Grima performed well during this period, Hu Bin gave him a lot of freedom. Except for doing things under the supervision of Hu Bin's men, Hu Bin no longer cares about anything else.  And Hu Bin's number one general Ted had already regarded this guy as a companion like Gerdan in advance. His attitude was somewhat close to Grima, which also made the rangers' surveillance more relaxed, as if the previous prisoners had already  Integrated into this team.  When Hu Bin returned to his place of stay, he found that Grima's expression was a little strange, as if he was hesitant to speak.  "What's the matter?" Hu Bin asked with some expectation. It's not surprising that he was so active. Although Grima's loyalty has improved a lot during this time?But he never took the initiative to talk to Hu Bin, and just did his own thing silently.  Hu Bin knew that he needed an opportunity to conquer this guy, otherwise he might not be able to get the complete loyalty of Grima in the future.  "It's nothing In fact, I have a request. I can go back Forget it, just pretend I didn't say it." Hu Bin was confused by Grima's words for a while, but after Grima left,  , Hu Bin thought about it carefully and understood what Grima was going to say.  "I didn't expect that this guy is still an infatuated person." Hu Bin sighed in a funny way, but then he found that it was not easy to satisfy Grima's wish. No wonder the guy's request was difficult to express. As a prisoner, Hu Bin  Bin was already extremely kind to him, so it was almost impossible for such an outrageous request to be agreed to.  But Grima underestimated Hu Bin's determination to win. That night, Hu Bin took Grima in a cloak into the city of Edoras and asked to meet Queen Eoine who was sitting on the Golden Summit.  Although the guards at the city gate have changed, they still recognize Hu Bin. After all, there are not many elves here, and the arrival of the caravan is not a small matter for the residents of the capital. Even the soldiers tonight  Part of the dinner was bought from Hu Bin's caravan, so the guards let it go without even checking.  Grima seemed a little emotional when he returned to this place. Once upon a time, the gate of the Golden Dome was open to him without restrictions, and the residents here would salute with respect when they saw him.  But now, he is just a traitor in the Rohan Kingdom who walks through the streets shouting for beatings.  The only thing here worthy of his nostalgia is the queen sitting on the throne.  Princess Eowen did not go on an expedition with her father. Instead, after supporting Baicheng, she returned to the territory of Rohan to preside over the government affairs of the kingdom.  However, all the smart and capable ministers were transferred away by the expeditionary force, and all the complicated government affairs fell on the shoulders of the princess.  In this troubled year, beauty did not bring any convenience to the princess. She should have stayed in the boudoir without any worries, waiting for her marriage, but she had to take on the important task of ruling the country and was busy until late at night.  Hearing Reed¡¯s visit, Princess Eoine thought of the handsome elf she had met several times. She had to sigh with emotion for the exquisite face that the elf race is blessed with.  She had long known that Reed was wandering around the territory of Rohan with his caravan. Although Princess Eowen was very confused about what this elf was doing, Hu Bin's behavior really helped the Kingdom of Rohan.  Being less busy indirectly solved many problems on the princess's desk.  Princess Eowen still had a great impression of this ally who came to support Rohan in the past, so despite the late night visit, the princess still received Hu Bin in a friendly manner.  The envoy led Hu Bin and Grima, whose face was half covered behind him, into the main hall where the princess worked, and Grima finally saw the person she had longed for again.  (To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature, the novel will be better and updated faster!
