"Yes, master. That Joseph sent a lot of money, five hundred taels of gold at first, then another hundred taels of gold, and six hundred taels of gold before and after. Liana pouted and said cutely, she is responsible for making the owner happy by selling cuteness in this team, and everyone is used to it.

Collie touched her little head, and said a little disappreciatively: "What is this money, I saved the lives of their entire cottage, as long as their six hundred taels of gold is too cheap for them, is there still such a merciful person as me in this world?" With that, he turned his head and said to Yasan: "Yasan, uncle, I want to open a winery to make money, and I will leave this matter to you." ”

"Distillery?" Everyone looked at each other, but after thinking about it, this gentleman Earl had made good wine, and perhaps he really had a talent for it, and as a servant, it was not good to say anything, and said, "Yes, master." I'll keep an eye on that. ”

These days, Clifford has nothing to do, usually just reading books in the yard, exercising, chatting with the servants, and going to tease and clean up the maid Liana in the evening. He knew that he would not be idle for too long, because there were still a lot of things to do in the three northern counties, and his teacher Taylor would not forget him as a strategist, and these two days of leisure should be Taylor's reward for his meritorious service in recruiting bandits this time. The only thing he misses now is Sophia, and he doesn't know where she has gone.

In the evening, Clifford sat on a chair reading documents, Liana knelt on the ground to wash his feet, seeing Clifford reading and reading attentively, Liana didn't dare to disturb him at first, but she remembered that she heard something today should be more important to Clifford, or plucked up the courage to say: "Master, the slave went to Mr. Olivia's house today to borrow something, I heard him say that there is a winery in the south of the city that wants to transfer, I wonder if you are interested?" ”

"What? Is there such a thing? With the help of the system, he can quickly complete the transformation of the winery, and when the time comes, he will definitely be able to make fine wine that can be sold in the three northern counties and not the whole country, and he pulled Liana up, and asked with a hint of excitement: "Is what you said true?" Girl. ”

"Of course it's true, a few slaves dare to lie to the master, and it was the slave who listened to Olivia herself." Liana said with her head tied low, with a hint of shyness and gentleness.

Her appearance, coupled with her unique snorting voice, can simply stir the hearts of countless men, Ke Lifu couldn't hold back the excitement in his heart, picked her up, walked to the bed barefoot, and said: "You little girl is really my lucky star, today I want to reward you well." ”

"But, sir. You haven't washed your feet yet? Liana was very happy, but she still made a shy gesture and said.

"What feet to wash? Finish cleaning up first! With that, Clifford threw Liana onto the bed. The spring breeze of the night is indescribable.

The next day, Collifor took Liana and Yasan to Olivia's house to inquire about the winery, Yasan is a technical backbone, and he is very sophisticated, with him can better negotiate with the other party, Liana is completely the role of a vase, just at her pretty face, take it out to have a lot of face, the later generations of Collifor has always wanted to be a big boss, and then take a beautiful female assistant to participate in various occasions, but unfortunately has not been able to do so, now God has given him this opportunity, why not seize it?

After explaining her intentions, Olivia invited everyone to sit down very warmly, and said with a smile: "Lord Earl, I really didn't expect that such a casual word of mine could help you, this is really my honor." Yes, there is a winery in the south of the city that has been auctioned for quite some time. ”

"Then why doesn't anyone buy it?" This sentence aroused Clifford's vigilance, he didn't want to be a pick-up man, a wronged head or something like that, no one bought it for a long time, there must be a problem.

Olivia sighed softly and said lightly: "This winery is opened by Feng Bock's brother-in-law, that guy can't run it, and the good winery loses money, but he loves face very much, and he refuses to sell it at a low price, so he freezes here." The person who wanted to buy it, because of the prestige of his brother-in-law von Bock, did not dare to say the ideal price in his heart, so gradually no one cared. ”

Von Bock? Collie flashed a short, fair-faced mustachioed image in his heart, this person he had seen, it was at the time of the conference, he was the bandit leader who surrendered one step ahead of Joseph, he was just a company commander when he first surrendered, and there were two hundred people under his command, and the government did not trust him at first.

However, this person is not an ordinary bandit, very good at being a man, after he surrendered, he focused on building a good relationship with the local government and local tyrants, gained their trust, and began to be assigned tasks, in the suppression of bandits, he did not hesitate to take the previous brothers for his own future, and gradually opened up the situation, and now he has been promoted to battalion commander because of merit, plus he pays attention to recruiting troops, after the bandit is completed, he will absorb the original bandits' subordinates, and the team is getting bigger and bigger, He already has a small number of men and horses, and he is also a pivotal figure in Chaoen County.

Because Chaoen County is a large county, not only has a large territory, but also a prosperous population and developed economy, which is more important than the other two counties combined, it can be said that the problem of the three counties in the north is actually the problem of Chaoen County, whoever can control Chaoen County can control the three counties in the north, so Taylor is willing to exchange the territory of the other two counties with Charlie for the strength of a division to help him control Chaoen County. In this transaction, both parties feel that they do not suffer a loss.

The territory of Chaoen County is vast, the population is large, and there are many important places, and the strength of 7,000 people in a division seems to be a little tight, and the governor of Taylor can only rely on the 1,000-strong bandit army under von Bock to maintain the defense, so von Bock is also a talking figure in the three northern counties, especially in Chaoen City.

After understanding this person's resume, Clifford felt that this person was not simple, first of all, he was a typical pragmatist, this kind of person is completely not a rabbit and no eagle, he will do things that are good, and things that are not good, you say that he will not do it.

Second, this person's vision is very vicious, and it is enough to see that this person is not bad.
