After years of development, the Santos family did not decline but gradually developed the territory into a small city, and the eagle and shield are the coat of arms of the Santos family, the locals like to call the Eagle City, and the outsiders like to call Santos City.

Although it is a city, it is the size of a prefecture-level city and a district in the previous life, and the lord's expenses when building a city are too large, so it is not bad if you are not a huge rich person to build a city, and the daily expenses of a family are not a small amount, not to mention the maintenance and construction of the city.

The Santos family also tightened their belts to survive, so slamming the door is a noble quality in their eyes, and each generation of heirs is estimated to have their legs broken if they are a big-spending loser.

The journey of more than ten days in a row was really hard for Luther, and seeing that he was about to reach his destination, Luther was in a better mood, but then he thought of the next task, and he also muttered to himself, I don't know what kind of attitude the Santos family will have.

It's really worthy of the Santos family, a team of less than 10 people actually has to charge 3 silver coins to enter the city, these guys are afraid that they don't treat their group as fat sheep merchants, right?

"That's right, three, not even one. ”

Luther gave a look to stop the argument and asked Dudley to pay and leave, he didn't want to delay the time because of any trouble caused by this matter.

"Hmph. ”

The knight Dudley snorted and led the horse into Eagle City, while several guards at the door grinned and pointed at them without knowing what they were talking about.

"My lord, you should have just whipped them directly, and it would not be too much to dare to snub them like this. ”

"It's just a small person, it's not necessary, and the Santos family thinks I'm here to make trouble, and I'm afraid it will be even more difficult to borrow troops when the time comes.

And it's better not to be too impulsive on someone else's turf. ”

Luther smiled and pressed his hand down, calmed Dudley, and then got into the carriage and began to change clothes.

Along the way, Luther didn't wear a dress for various reasons, and he wore it very casually, otherwise even if he gave a few more dares, those guards wouldn't dare to blackmail.

After coming out, the surrounding knights got on their horses and headed majestically towards the castle in the inner city, causing a round of exclamations from the surroundings.

Because there was no one else in the city who dared to run in the city like this, except for the nobles, the people around them hurriedly separated to make way for them, and then lowered their heads on both sides, and did not dare to raise their heads until the carriage passed.

"Hans, Hans is not good, it seems that there is a nobleman in the carriage just now, at least a viscount, otherwise he would definitely not dare to drive a carriage like this in Eagle City. ”

"What?"

After hearing the words of his companion, Hans pushed away the people who were blocking the road next to him, and he didn't even feel like scolding, and hurriedly looked into the distance, and sure enough, he saw the carriage driving on the main road, and the surrounding crowd was bowing their heads and parting the road.

"Oh no, you don't hold a grudge, do you? But three silver coins shouldn't be anything to Lord Viscount, right?"

Hans muttered, but the beads of sweat on his forehead proved that he was a little afraid.

The captain of the city guard glanced at the two of them and said, "Do you think you are worth remembering?

You two have a long memory, next time don't stretch out your hand like this, a little money is fine, but if you are too greedy, you will get into trouble sooner or later, just now I would never let you collect three silver coins. ”

"But we did think it was just a small caravan, and you can see that the things they pull are worth a lot of money. ”

......

At the same time, there was a young girl in the city who was wearing some shabby clothes and snorted and said to herself, "This is what my father said, but why can't I smell it?"

Could it be that the prophecy was wrong?"

Then the girl's face turned happy, and her nose moved again.

"Oh it's coming, it's developed in the future,"

The people around the girl looked at her with a foolish look, but the girl didn't care at all, and just waited in place with a heartless look.

After a while, a few horses followed a carriage and ran over, and the girl's eyes rolled and she stumbled and fell to the ground before she could react.

In the eyes of outsiders, it was clear that the carriage was running, and the girl was hit by someone next to her when she wanted to dodge.

Luther had long forgotten the little incident at the city gate, and he was currently thinking about how to speak to be tactful, or how to get them to agree when they showed a willingness to refuse.

Just then, the carriage came to a sudden halt, and Luther almost threw himself forward, when he heard the sound of a horse screaming.

After stabilizing himself, Luther scolded secretly, I'm afraid this is not touching porcelain, right? Who is so bold that even nobles dare to touch porcelain?

Luther, who leaned out half of his body, was a little speechless when he saw the scene in front of him, and sure enough, someone fell to the ground, but the speed of the carriage just now didn't seem to be fast, this person's legs and feet were inconvenient? But it's good that nothing happened, and they were almost at the door, and it was too auspicious to see blood.

When the people on the ground raised their heads, Luther saw that it was a young girl, and there was something similar to starlight in her sea-blue eyes.

Luther, who rubbed his eyes, looked at it again and sure enough, he was dazzled, probably just now.

At this time, the girl had already gotten up, and Luther saw that the other party's tattered estimate was not even as good as that of civilians, so he hurriedly asked Dudley to give the other party about 10 coppers.

Although it was okay for Luther to give a silver coin, it was a harm to her, and it was estimated that the girl would be in danger after sunset, so a few copper coins would not only fill her stomach but also not make people peep too much.

As long as the girl is smart enough to spend about the same amount before dark, she will not be in danger, of course, if it is stolen, it can only be that she is too unlucky.

After hearing the words of Lord Earl, Dudley secretly said in his heart that he really didn't give the other party a whip directly, the young master of the Sears family is really merciful, but I hope that when fighting with the Minerhil family, he will not be merciful and bad.

The girl was a little stunned and held the copper cake in her hand, and then a kind aunt looked at her and remembered her daughter, who ran to the middle of the road and pulled her back, and kept scolding her.

The people around looked at it, and it turned out that it was the mother who didn't pay attention to the little daughter, and fortunately, this unknown adult didn't pursue it, which was really fateful.

The girl watched the carriage move again and gradually move away, but she couldn't react, because the aunt was still pulling her with a stern look at this time, and she didn't let go of the hand holding her until the surrounding crowd of onlookers dispersed.

The Santos family's castle was built halfway up the hillside, but now it has apparently been expanded and modified to become very large and spectacular, at least much better than the Sears' dilapidated castle.

When they were still a few hundred meters away, a pair of patrolling soldiers trotted towards them, asked if the person who came was actually a relative of the Santos family, and hurriedly sent someone back to report it.

At this time, Luther's knights had already dismounted and led the carriage in the direction of the castle with the reins.
