Chapter 58: Celebration
At this time, Ellington hurriedly walked in with two halflings, looked around and saw Li Youran, and happily walked in front of Li Youran and said: "My lord is fortunate not to be dishonored, this is the fine they paid, you count one hundred gold coins, the clerk of the viscount said that since they bought it before, it is actually not much binding, so it can only be a symbolic punishment, only one hundred gold coins, but it is not bad." β
Morton glanced at the money bag, and became even more depressed, the viscount could only get five gold coins for selling animal skins, and people brought one hundred gold coins with their mouths!
Li Youran saw Morton's eyes, smiled and pushed his wallet to Morton and said: "You take this money, the viscount buys some food, although it is not much, but it can be regarded as a snack, if you really can't get by, come to my territory to find me, by the way, it is the village we used to go to together, there is a stone mountain on the side, and now I have built a castle, you can see it when you come, I will go first, bye." β
Li Youran threw down the wallet and left with his subordinates, while Morton looked at the wallet in a daze, he wanted to refuse, but he couldn't refuse, the old and young in the clan couldn't all starve to death.
In the end, Morton still left with his money bag, buy some food to get through this crisis first, and said that he would help him a few times in the future, even if he killed someone, it was nothing, Morton thought of the few people who helped Li Youran hurt last time, and he made a decision in his heart.
On the way back, Ellington never understood why Li Youran wanted to give Morton so much money, it was a full hundred gold coins, and he must be reluctant to change it.
And his question only got Li Youran's sentence: "So you are still a knight, and I am already a baron." β
With a happy mood, humming a leisurely tune, Ellington rode a horse to escort the left and right, while the two halflings sat in front of the carriage and drove the carriage, Li Youran already understood, these people are not dwarves, although they are short, but unlike the close relatives of the iron, they are better at food and drink, and they are the craftsmen that the viscount gave to Li Youran to make wine.
Li Youran returned to the territory, this time it really became his own territory, a large territory, Zig and John came to greet together, the happy Li Youran told Zig and John about the situation, the two were amazed, John was even more happy to run to the worker's residence, shouting wildly, the whole territory knew that the mage had become the real master of this land.
The workers also joined in the frenzied celebrations, a life in which they were always afraid of losing, and some even secretly stored bread during meals, so that they could eat it again when the castle was finished.
And now Li Youran has become a lord, everyone's actual master, which means that everyone's life can be guaranteed, of course, the premise is to work hard, this is something that Lord Ziggy and Master John have repeatedly emphasized, and it has penetrated into their hearts.
The refugees on the periphery were also watching curiously, they didn't know about these things, of course the people in this village were very friendly! Not only did they have food, but they even had a warm dress after agreeing to work, which not everyone had, and people also looked at it, at least those who liked to cheat and play tricks were not selected, and they wanted strong people.
Unlike John's revelry, Ziggy was more sensible, although he was also happy that the main family had become an aristocracy, which meant that he was one step closer to returning to the aristocracy, but he still needed to look at the power of attorney, that is, the skin paper.
When he asked to watch, Ellington's eyes were about to bulge, and he almost drew his sword and killed him, "What does this mean?" Will the master still lie to you? β
"Nope! Of course not. Ziggy immediately explained that he didn't want the good things he had come to go bad, and that he was just afraid that his master would be deceived, although few would dare to deceive the mage.
"Alright, Ellington, it's okay, then that's it, take it and see! It just so happens that I don't know the words in it, so let's see if there's anything wrong. β
Li Youran didn't care, anyway, the territory was his, Ellington muttered and stood behind Li Youran.
After Ziggy opened the power of attorney, he watched it, and he didn't look at the rights of tax exemption, exclusive acquisition rights, and so on, but he just looked at the territory, and the first thing he saw was the baronial title, although it was the lowest level of the title, but it was a knight, and it was considered to be the threshold of the nobles, of course, when it came to the area of the territory, I was shocked, it was a hundred miles around the castle.
"Great! That's great! Your Excellency, now you will have a rich territory, a huge land of a hundred miles! Ziggy was so excited that he was about to faint, which made Li Youran strange.
"What do you say! A hundred miles away? What do you mean? Li Youran didn't understand.
"Master, a hundred miles around the castle is your territory! These resources are enough for you to create a strong family. β
"Baili? Barry!! Li Youran didn't react, didn't he say that it was a good radius of ten miles? Why did it become a hundred miles, could it be that the viscount made a mistake, so didn't he take advantage of it, or don't make a noise, it's better to make a fortune in a muffled voice, it must be that the viscount guy drank too much wine and his hands shook and added an extra zero.
If the viscount knew that his overtures were drunk in Li Youran's opinion, I don't know how to feel?
In order to celebrate, Li Youran let Oak open the granary and come to a reward, such a move immediately won everyone's hearts, and in the evening, Li Youran told Ziggy and John, Ellington and others to guard the territory, and then teleported back to Earth alone, although he didn't get any money, but he got a more important base.
When Li Youran left, only across the territory of another viscount by a river, a man in black armor had a goshawk parked in his hand, and the man took down the secret letter on the goshawk's feet, and after watching the contents, a smile tugged at the corner of his mouth.
"It's naΓ―ve, is there a war in winter? Think it's okay to have enough food? In that case, I'm not welcome to the grain, and someone has called Field over. β
"Yes!" One of the guards was ordered to leave.
After a while, a man who looked like a general walked over,
"Greetings from your faithful knight, master."
"My bravest warrior, the sharpest sword of the Morrigan family, I have a very dangerous mission to you, I don't know if you dare to take it? A very dangerous and dangerous task. β
