Chapter XXXVI: The Count's Promise

Meron came to the Earl's study, and Eliza was there.

"The Earl has been waiting for you for a long time, and you playful little devil is only coming back now." Seeing Meron come in, Eliza smiled as if nothing had happened.

It's just the redness left in the eye circles that let Meron know that Eliza is not as calm as she seems.

Pouring a glass of water for Meron, Eliza smiled slightly: "You two have a good chat, I'll go and see how the dinner is prepared." ”

With that, Eliza was about to turn away.

The castle owner's study was not accessible to anyone, and it was generally not open to women, and Eliza's ability to come to the study in her spare time was a unique exception.

But Eliza knows how to advance and retreat, and is never pampered, and rarely goes to the earl's study, let alone when there are people, and now that Bent obviously wants to talk to Meron about something, she will not stay any longer.

"Wait, let the people prepare dinner, Meron is not an outsider, you don't need to shy away, and you are also very concerned about Meron, save me later." Bent stopped Eliza and shrugged helplessly.

Bant had spoken, and Meron was indeed not an outsider, so Eliza simply found a remote seat and sat down quietly.

Bant nodded slightly to Eliza, then looked at Meron, and his expression returned to seriousness: "I heard Eliza say about you, it is indeed very bad for such a thing as eating flower seeds in your territory, especially the situation of your territory, if you don't deal with this kind of thing, the consequences will be very serious." ”

Theoretically, if there is a shortage of people in the territory, you can find another way, this method is very simple, and it is also a common means in this world, stealing and kidnapping from the territory of other countries!

Every year, the battles between the various principalities, in addition to plundering resources, are mainly about plundering people.

As for whether there is any personal enmity in between, it is a secondary factor.

But no matter what you say, you can't do without money and people, which is also the most lacking in Merlon's territory, so this method will not work for Meron at all.

If the natives of the territory are sterilized, there is only one way to perish!

"I know, so I want to ask my father for help, and I'll do it for the biggest price I can pay." Meron spread his hands helplessly and said directly.

Now that the Earl already knows, Meron doesn't need to go around the bend and directly state his purpose and bottom line, and as for the rest, kick the ball to Bante.

Bent narrowed his eyes slightly, looking Meron up and down, a little shocked in his heart, shocked by Meron's changes.

For his son, it turned out that Bent was more or less disappointed.

A man who didn't even dare to lift his head when he saw his own father, the kind who could still stay in the castle for eighteen years, it was hard for Bent to imagine that he dared to look directly at himself in just a few months, and play ball so smoothly.

Bent didn't think that all of this was Eliza's support for Meron, as if there wasn't one, and it wasn't that cowardice......

Meron was not afraid of Bent's sharp eyes, and she looked like I was just looking at me casually, which made Eliza, who was sitting on the side, want to laugh.

Ban fixed his mind, and I don't know what kind of psychology it was, and the majestic look on his face diminished a lot.

Stretched out his hand and tapped lightly on the desk a few times before he spoke again: "Although I am an earl and have a lot of resources in my hands, I also have many people under me to support, and it is not impossible for you to ask for something from me, but as you said, you need to exchange it." ”

Meron nodded lightly in this regard, this is Bante's style, and it is also Banter's difficulty, at the beginning, Meron did not plan to empty the white wolf.

Seeing that Meron had no resistance, Bant continued: "The sword you built is indeed good, at least in my impression, it is not as sharp as that sword, and it can be exchanged for a lot of resources, but it is still not enough to tide over the difficulties of the territory with a sword." ”

Hearing this, Mei Long was stunned: "That sword was originally for me to be filial to my father, and my father didn't want to take advantage of me, and I was embarrassed to ask for it, I don't know how much food that sword can be exchanged for?" ”

Saying that, Meron also showed a look of grievance that he didn't give a gift.

"Forehead ......"

Bent was also stunned, he had been in the earl for many years, and he had long been moody, and the corners of his eyes twitched at this moment, eager to give himself a big mouth.

That sword may have been a pretty sword in the eyes of others, but in Bant's eyes, it wasn't like that.

Needless to say, it is sharp and flexible, and it is far superior to other swords in other aspects, which in the eyes of a nobleman who likes all kinds of divine weapons, it is an unavoidable treasure, and it will definitely pay a big price in exchange.

There may be very few such people, but Bent happens to know one, and that is the Lord of the Duchy, Lord Duke, and Duke Bubai.

The thought that he could have obtained such a peerless sword for nothing, but now he had to pay the price, Bent's heart was not happy.

It's not that Bant wants to eat white food, but he can't stand the feeling of being pitted.

"Poof!"

Eliza, who was sitting in the corner, finally couldn't help it, it was the first time in so many years that she had seen Bent eat deflated, and she couldn't fight back if she still ate it.

What's more important is that the person who makes Bent deflated is his son, the son who is the most uncompetitive in his eyes.

Eliza smiled, and Bent felt that his old face was a little hot.

However, he did not reprimand Eliza, but showed a complicated look on his face, and he could only knock out his teeth and swallow it in his stomach: "Although that sword is rare, I can only give you four kilowatt pots of wheat, of course, if you want something else, it is worth it." ”

Hearing Bent give this price, Meron swallowed, which was somewhat unexpected to himself.

Four kilowatt pots of wheat are basically equal to four thousand catties of wheat, which is not a small amount, and in a world where food is sometimes more expensive than gold, this is definitely a very large amount.

You must know that Meron's monthly supply is only about 100 crockpots of wheat, which is basically enough for a month's wheat expenses in Edinburgh.

This price is also the highest that Bant can give, and perhaps paying the sword tribute to the Duke of Bubai will get more benefits than this, but who can say for sure.

Bante is a duke and earl, that is to say, his title is canonized by the Duke of Bubai, and for his top boss, Bant does not dare to mention any conditions, it all depends on Bubai's own meaning.

In the unlikely event that Bu Bai does not give any substantial reward, or anything other than food, then what is given to Meron will be given by Bent himself.

Beyond the bottom line of four kilowatt cans of wheat, the food problem in Meilong's territory has not been solved, and Bant does not know, but it is very likely that there will be a food crisis in his territory.

As for whether the sword should be paid as a tribute to Bubai, Bent has not yet decided, but he wants to know something, looked at Meron's eyes seriously, and asked, "Can you still forge a weapon of this quality?" As long as it's of this quality, any weapon will do. ”

Meron knew that Bent was going to pay attention to the weapon.

"I can build any weapon, and I have a lot of new weapons, definitely better than the regular ones, but I don't have enough materials."

"Good! As long as you can create weapons of this quality, I will find a way to do it, and I guarantee that as long as you can provide enough weapons, your territory will not only solve the food problem, but also usher in new glory! ”
