In the wee hours of the morning, at the docks of the Nasse River, Charles said goodbye to Lord Fani.

There are not too many sweet words, and there are no vows, only mutual trust and deep affection.

"Don't be too greedy, you must know how to give profits to your partners, only in this way can those businessmen support you, there is a precedent for the change of things in Bayona, you can make some changes with reference, if you can't decide, you can write to me......"

Charles said to Fani, and Fani nodded, as if a student were being taught by a mentor.

"Casey and Jem are newly awakened transcendents, and their combat experience is slightly lacking, but Jem is a hunter, and his vigilance is still okay, and after he arrives in Bayona, let Reed train them well, and you must have a knight you trust by your side. ”

Charles looked at the two goose-like knights in the distance, and was very dissatisfied, although with his help they successfully awakened to the transcendental, but after all, they were too young and seriously lacked experience in facing the enemy.

"Actually, it's safe for me to go to Bayonne, let's let the two of them go with you......!

Charles shook his head and smiled, "Where do I need them to protect, your man is very powerful!"

Fani finally burst into tears, stretched out her hands and hugged Charles, burying her head in his chest and convulsing and crying.

Charles patted her on the back lightly, and said apologetically: "I almost tore it off in Sbaya, I wanted to stay in Bayonna and not return to Nasser, but I thought that I still had a beautiful wife to marry, so I returned to this city, and then I saw the most beautiful roses in the world......"

"Fani, having you is the greatest luck in my life, believe me, the separation is only short-lived, and when we meet again, it will be time for us to discuss how to hold the wedding. ”

Fani was already choked up and unable to speak, so she could only nod heavily.

"Gone!"

Charles gently pushed the crying girl away, wiped the tears from her face, and resolutely turned to get on the boat.

The dawn of dawn had already illuminated the surface of the river, and the river sailboat slowly left the dock and sailed against the current towards the mouth of the tributary of the Nasai River.

The tall girl on the shore kept waving her hand until Charles's super vision could not see clearly, and she still waved her arms stubbornly.

"This silly girl, her arm hurts a few days now. Charles sneered with a frown to hide the slightest pain in his heart.

"Do you think Sister Fani is stupid? I don't think so! Cousin Linar is so powerful, but what did you take advantage of her? In the end, you didn't trust her the most?" Hearing Charles's words, Olive who was standing next to her was not happy.

Charles was not so polite to the little girl, stretched out his hand and twisted it on her baby fat face, and said with the majesty of his brother: "I know that Bayonne used to be managed by you, but now brother, don't I need you as a little assistant?

"I know that I was told to work for nothing, and the storage area outside Bayona was my dowry, and it was certainly no worse than Sister Fani's management to let me go. The little girl slapped Charles's paw away and walked into the cabin herself, muttering her frustration as she went.

Charles sighed to himself, and didn't explain anything more to Olive Live.

If it was Bayona in the past, naturally Fani didn't need to take over the management, but now that he has inherited the title of marquis, and accepted the invitation of the emerging merchant class to serve as the president of the United Chamber of Commerce, it is easy to be suppressed by others, and there must be a person with a reputation and enough weight to go to the town.

Fani is Charles's fiancée, and with Charles' rise, she has gradually become an important member of the royal family, and no one is more suitable than her, both in terms of name and status.

"It's time to speed up team building!"

..........

..........

The Marne was a tributary of the Nasser, which flowed from the southeastern part of Florence to the royal capital of Nasser, bringing a huge amount of water to the Naser River and providing the city of Nasser with a waterway to the eastern part of the kingdom.

Lorraine is north-east of Flens, just east of the city of Nacel, and the fastest and most comfortable way to travel from Nacer by boat along the Marne to the border of the province of Meuse and then by land.

There is no road maintenance department in this world, let alone a snow plow operated by Lanxiang graduates, and the knee-high snow a few days ago cannot be cleaned up by manpower alone, at least until the spring flowers bloom to melt naturally.

Charles and the others could gallop in the snow, but Oliv, the maid, and a dozen merchants who accompanied them were not used to this kind of extreme sport, so Charles chose to take a boat first, and then prayed that the snow in Meuse Province was not so heavy.

The inland river boat is not as fast as on the ocean, and it is against the current, and it can only sail less than ten kilometers in an hour, but the mainland area of the Flensian Kingdom is not large, and the voyage across the two provinces is only two or three hundred miles, and at noon the next day, the group abandoned the ship and landed on the land of the Meuse Province.

Unfortunately, the snow in the province of Meuse was not much smaller than that of Nasser, and the snow on the roads was at least two feet deep, and the horses could barely pass, and could not run at all.

Charles, who had been prepared for a long time, took out the large snowboards that had been made overnight, removed the wheels of the carriage and converted them into horse-drawn climbing plows, and dragged them towards Nancy City, which was more than a hundred miles away.

"Our current Marquis of Lorraine is only a part of the original Duchy of Upper Lorraine, bordering Alsace and Lucerne in the Kingdom of Prussia and the southern tip of the Nilan region, the terrain is dominated by plateaus, there are two major rivers in the territory, the irrigated farmland can produce enough food for all the people of Lorraine, there are coal fields in the east of Nancy City, and there are mines in the north, which is a self-sufficient and rich land. ”

"Nancy City is one of the oldest cities in the Lorraine region, once the capital of the Duchy of Lorraine, but since the kingdom of Lorraine was divided into three in 952 in the Bright Calendar, it has no longer been important, but it is still the most prosperous and greatest city in the Lorraine region. ”

"Our ancestors have the blood of the royal family of Lorraine, and we are the last heirs and guardians of the Duchy of Lorraine. ”

In the warm carriage, Olive repeated to Charles the general situation in the Lorraine region, and it was clear that the little girl was very proud of the glory of her ancestors.

"How big was the Duchy of Lorraine before?" Charr looked at the map of the continent in front of him, and he couldn't guess as he gestured with his hand.

"It is half the size of Flens, from the north coast in the north, to Lake Lémans in the south, to the Achen of Prus, including the current Duchy of Luxon, the region of Niran, and the province of Meuse, all of which are the territory of the Duchy of Lorraine. ”

Charles found the places Olive mentioned on the map one by one, and had some idea of the former Duchy of Lorraine, which was not as big as half a Flann, but a third the size of the Flense kingdom.

"The Nilan region is now an overseas territory of Bya, isn't it, what is the basis of Sbaia's rule there, do the locals embrace them, or do they hate them?" asked Charles, pointing to the region of Nyland, which was several times larger than the Marquis of Lorraine.

"Of course it's hatred, the governor of Sbaya is a madwoman, he doesn't treat the Nilan people as human beings at all, and the high taxes will kill many Nilan people every year, and the Nilan people will hate him to death. ”

Olive received an education as head of the family since she was a child, and she has a good understanding of the situation around Lorraine.

"Oh!

Olive reacted immediately, grabbed Charles' wrist and asked in a low voice, "What are you going to do Charles?

"Don't be so nervous Olive Live, I didn't say that I would send troops into the Nilan region, but our father died in Sbaia, and this account must be settled with the Sbaias, so wouldn't it be good for them to pay some interest first?"
