Chapter 16: The Undercurrent Strikes

The yield of flame wheat really surprised Allen, which was about a hundred kilograms more than the normal acre of land, reaching two hundred kilograms.

Even if he eats the flame wheat as a staple food, he can eat it for about three months, and the flame wheat only takes two months from picking to ripening again.

Putting the picked flame wheat into the prepared wooden box, Alan planned to go to the Elemental Chamber of Commerce in a few days to sell the two hundred catties of flame wheat, and did not plan to use it to train cavalry warriors, after all, the most important thing now is the advancement of the flame wheat.

Antonio is a water elemental knight, and he can't eat the Flame Wheat Fruit at all, because Alan has the Flame Wheat, he doesn't need this thing to increase his strength, as long as there are enough Fire Elemental Crystals, Alan can easily break through. Therefore, Eren plans to exchange the Flame Wheat Fruit, which is useless at this stage, with elemental crystals to improve the strength of the territory.

......

At noon, to the north of the Qinghuang Collar, the wooden rattan collar is the wooden rattan fort.

Baron Jean, who was dressed in a precious fire rattan robe, sat in the hall with a sad face.

"Did Miss wake up and eat?" Jean looked directly at the middle-aged maid in front of him.

"Lord Barbaron, Miss Barbara has only eaten a little apple porridge, and refuses to eat the rest. The maid told Jean the truth.

Letting the maid retreat, Jean rubbed his head. Since his sister returned to the territory, there has not been a day without crying, often eating some apple porridge, this time she is even more hungry and faints, no one listens to anyone's advice, and Jean has no choice.

Not only did he bully my sister, but he also dared to jam the caravan of the territory! Jean regretted what Currit had done, if he didn't have his own support at the beginning, he Currit would have been able to develop to this extent? Now his wings are stiff, and with Viscount Bernard as a backer, he doesn't take himself seriously.

Jean, who was in a rage, waited for the caravan captain Wienal.

"What did that Currit guy say?"

Jean asked.

"Lord Baron,...... This time I didn't even see Baron Curit's face, and the guards saw me coming and drove me out. Venal said bitterly.

"What! How dare he...... It seems that there is no room for relaxation......" Jean said, squinting his eyes, as if thinking of something.

Curitt this guy stuck in the caravan, each time to ask for 20% of the profit, this price Jean can't accept at all, originally thought to be patient for a while, he told Viscount Berner about the matter, Viscount Berner will mediate and ease.

But it's been two months, and Viscount Berner hasn't replied, Currit still goes his own way, it seems that Viscount Bernard won't care, for Viscount Bernard's attitude, Jean is very disappointed, since Viscount Bernard didn't deal with this matter, that is, he acquiesced in what Currit did to the wooden rattan collar.

"My lord, I suggest...... You can secretly send a caravan to the north......... The Night Viscount trades in Night City, after all, there is also the Elemental Chamber of Commerce there. ”

Wiener said hesitantly, after all, the Muteng Collar and the Huatuan Collar to the north of the territory are bordered, and the relationship is usually quite good, and sometimes small caravan trade is carried out.

"Okay, let's take this matter to heart and leave it aside for the time being. It's not that you don't know that Viscount Berner of Musen Collar and Viscount Taber of Night Collar have a feud, how can the big caravan trade not be discovered by Viscount Bernard. ”

In a battle with the Night Lord, Viscount Bernard's father, the old Night Lord, was shot by an arrow and died, and the two Viscounts have formed a blood feud since then.

Although Wienal's suggestion is not very desirable, if there is really no way, Jean will also consider it, but once this kind of thing is done, it means breaking with Viscount Bernard, and Jean is very careful.

"Don't go again after the caravan trade comes back this time, the fire vine clothes will be tuned first, and it will not affect the territory if it does not trade for a short time. Jean was ruthless in his heart, even if he cut off the trade channel, he would not take advantage of Curit.

Worried about his sister, Jean got up and went to Barbara's bedroom, intending to persuade her again.

Iron and stone led the castle, Currit walked out of the bedroom with a red face, since the castle was without that fat pig, he was proud, and brought his lover back to the castle to live, life was so unhappy, thinking that he should have a child......

"My lord, the Wiener of the Wood Vine Collar is gone. "Ji'an Road.

"Hmm. In the future, all the people who are Mu Teng Ling will not be seen, and they will be driven away directly, and if they want to pass from the territory, they must give me 20% of the profits, and there is no need to negotiate!"

If it weren't for the pressure, he could marry Barbara, the entire viscount couldn't get married, and he was finally married by himself, and he had to pretend to be grateful to Dade, thinking about his appearance at that time, Currit felt disgusting. If it weren't for her, she would have been ridiculed by other nobles for so many years!

"By the way, I've changed my mind, and I've sent someone to tell Jean that I want forty percent of the profits, and that's right! I want him to publicly say that his sister is not worthy of me! Not worthy of me, Baron Curitt! Go!" Curritt became more and more excited, pretending to be crazy.

"Yes...... Yes, my lord, I'll go. Ji'an hurriedly replied and hurriedly retreated.

The territorial relationship between the two sides is getting worse and worse, and even if Viscount Bernard intervenes at this time, he will not get a good result, but this situation is really good news for Allen.

Looking at the note in his hand, Alan thought for a moment.

On the note was the information sent back by the secret agents of the Qinghuang Realm, and the route map of the Muto Leader caravan passing through the Iron and Stone Collar on the way back was investigated.

Alan immediately summoned Antonio.

Eren plans to attack the caravan in the Ironstone Realm, blaming the Ironstone Realm and causing conflict between the two realms.

"Antonio, you are in charge of this matter, lead the fifty cavalry to the road where the caravan must pass to ambush, remember not to leave a mouth alive! There will be an agent from the Ironclad to lead the way, and you will be in contact with Andy. Alan looked at Antonio.

"Yes, Lord Baron," replied Antonio.

Late at night on the 3rd of July, a team of fifty people, dressed in black, crossed the border between the Blue Desolation Collar and the Ironstone Collar, and secretly entered the Ironstone Collar.

In order not to be discovered, Antonio deliberately let the team dismount, walked into the Iron and Stone Collar, and came to the ambush site under the leadership of the secret agent.

Tony silently followed the team, as the first boy in the village to break through to the cavalry, he was directly called into the army, and this was also his first time out of the Blue Wilderness Territory.

I heard Uncle Chad next to him say that this time he was going to kill someone, Tony had never killed anyone, and he had seen the appearance of a dead man when a condemned prisoner was tortured, and Tony hadn't slept well for a few days that time, and the hideous look of the prisoner when he died was in Tony's heart for a long time.

Just thinking about it, he said "stop" and brought Tony back to his senses.
