With that, Nikiforos Brinyos bowed politely to Eric and the other Norman Knights, his bearing quite proper and rather flattering.
"At least ten times the compensation—one hundred thousand Gold Coins." Belem's interest was piqued at the mention of money.
"No, no, no. I think it should be at least two hundred thousand Gold Coins." Brinyos smiled and shook his head. "In addition to this well-deserved compensation, I believe His Majesty the Emperor will also bestow a generous reward upon the devout Crusader Soldiers, for this is a gift not only to the Crusaders, but to God as well."
Just then, a Silver Coin flew toward Brinyos, who instinctively caught it.
"Are you satisfied with this Silver Coin?" Eric asked, looking at Brinyos.
"Satisfied? Of course, I'm satisfied," Brinyos replied instinctively.
It was an English silver penny.
"Yes, of course you're satisfied," Eric sneered.
Eric tossed another Silver Coin to him.
