Xiao Chen just used the group charm technique, but with his great magician’s strength, he can calmly control the power of magic, and there will never be any more people around him being overly charmed and doing all kinds of strange behaviors.

He just controlled the other party’s favorable feelings for him on the level of trust, so that they felt willing to express their feelings to him when they saw him.

Judging from the boss’s performance, this magic should be used just right. Although he was a little reluctant to speak, he finally spoke.

“Why are there any trouble?” Xiao Chen asked.

The shop owner touched his slightly bald head and said, “Because Baron Paragus manages the territory very differently than other nobles.”

The boss pointed to a plate of grilled sausage in front of Xiao Chen and said, “The other lords regard their lords as food that can be chewed and swallowed, but Lord Paragus treats us as this plate. You will swallow the food in your stomach and eat no left, but you will protect your plate from being broken and smashed.”

“Because it is a useful tool?” Xiao Chen asked.

“It’s almost the same. Maybe it’s stronger than the tool. After all, Lord Paragus is willing to listen to us. You should know that lords like this are rare. However, doing this is not a good thing in the eyes of other lords. So many things, Lord Grapas doesn’t allow us to talk nonsense. If I didn’t see you being kind and reliable, such words wouldn’t be told to foreigners.”

“No one wants to compare himself with others and look like a bad guy.” said a guy dressed up next to him. When he heard the tavern owner talk, the others slowly gathered back.

“But those guys are bad guys, the kind of eggs that are so rotten that they are dripping with stinky water inside. My wife’s younger brother said that the tax officials in their village were rushing debts and using whips to smash people’s backs. I wish I could smash the lords with a hammer. This would not happen to Lord Paragus.” said the sturdy blacksmith.

Another middle-aged man who looked a little identifiable said, “Not only Baron Paragus, but their Feng family has been running this place for a long time and has always been good lords. They never bullied us like other nobles, nor did they only know how to collect taxes, regardless of our life or death. But Paragus is the best. For example, Paragus will lead us all to dig ditches and build dams. Do you know why the grain in our town of Goyo can be supplied to Suero and is fought over by many merchants? It is because our water resources are better than other towns, and the grain produced is naturally more and better.”
The owner of the tavern said, “Aes is the manager of our caravan, or he has the most knowledge.”
