The fiefdom of the Borg family was located in the northern part of the Yuss Empire, and the fief was mainly mountainous, rich in pine and various hardwoods, which were the most commonly used wood for construction and furniture. The Borg family used to be prosperous, and it is said that someone in the court was an official in the court, but then the family fell into the middle, and now it is just an ordinary little nobleman, who has no power in the court and the opposition, and can only engage in the business of operating forest farms and selling timber according to local conditions. In the north of the Yuss Empire, there is a shortage of all materials, except wood, so the business of the Borg family has not been very prosperous, and they can only barely maintain a moderate life.

Kevin Borg grew up in such a family, and his father, Baron Borg, had high expectations of his only son.

The elder Borg did not want his son to live a mediocre life like himself with the little family property left by his ancestors, so he hired the best teachers for his son from an early age, and later sent his son to the School of Administration to study history, law, and literature.

At that time, when the situation in the south was tense, Kevin boldly predicted that there would be a large-scale war between Higg and the Holy See, so at his suggestion, the family took out all their savings, and even borrowed money to hoard timber to prepare for a war fortune, but never thought that the war between the Holy See and Higg had not started for a long time, and the family was financially overwhelmed and on the verge of bankruptcy, so he could only use the wood at a low price to pay off the debt.

The failure of this business caused Kevin's status in the family to plummet, and he left the family in frustration to look for opportunities in the ancient city of Ocheng, and by chance met Alan through his cousin Apple. His personality and ability soon won Allen's trust and appreciation, and in the past few years, he has been doing magic weapons, leather goods, food and potions business from the bar, especially the potion business is not only lucrative but also gets rid of Allen's dependence on alchemy, which is simply a daily income, even the Hepburn family, which made a fortune in the potion business, is slightly inferior to the Hepburn family.

The business is getting bigger and bigger, and Kevin's own net worth is also rising, not only paying off the foreign debts he owed due to the failure of the timber business, but also regaining the trust of the family members by cooperating with the Dragon Yin Mercenary Group to support the family's business.

In the summer, Alan traveled south to assassinate the Pope, and Holland issued three orders to take action against the Boys, the Dragonbard, and Steven. At that time, Kevin realized that the situation was not good, because he himself, like the other three, was labeled as Alan's man. And the reason why Holland didn't attack him was just that he was reluctant to share his own dividends.

So, Kevin made a decision to suspend everything he was responsible for and he was going home for a vacation. This vacation is a few months, summer to autumn, for a few months, although Kevin is in the family's fiefdom, but his heart is always concerned about the affairs of the ancient city of Oku, he believes that no matter what kind of crisis he encounters, Alan will definitely come back, because there are people he cares about.

In this way, Kevin waited until winter came, and one day at noon, he accompanied his father in front of the fireplace to taste the rum he had brought back from the ancient city of Oko, and talked about the family business. Suddenly, a servant came to report that a handsome man who claimed to be Sergei asked to see him.

"Father, take care, I'm going back. ”

The next day, Kevin excitedly said goodbye to his father and hurriedly embarked on a journey back to the ancient city of Aogu with a few pharmacists.

Five days later, Kevin's convoy reappeared outside the ancient city of Aogu and was blocked by a checkpoint two miles from town.

"See what's going on?"

Unaware of the current situation in the ancient city, Kevin parked the carriage at the side of the road from a distance, and then instructed the servant to inquire about the situation.

"Master, it's a member of the Youth League. ”

The servant soon returned to give an offering.

"Good, go into town!"

Kevin laughed.

"There's an order from above, if Your Excellency Borg arrives, please meet you at command immediately. ”

Before coming to the checkpoint, the servant reported Kevin's name, and a squadron leader immediately came to Kevin's carriage and saluted. After passing the checkpoint, the servants and apothecary left first, while Kevin headed for the center of the city under the protection of the squadron leader.

"Ao Gucheng was beaten down a few days ago?"

"Didn't fight. ”

"Didn't fight?"

"Yes, the team drove straight in. With the exception of Castle Ogu, all areas are under our control. ”

The two of them walked and chatted all the way, and Kevin learned from the middle captain that Allen's men had been stationed in the ancient city of Aogu five days ago, and officially took over the military power of the ancient city, and the whole process was like an exercise without a single soldier, and it was smooth to everyone's surprise. Without even making a symbolic resistance, the Ogu family retreated all the troops under their command into the Ogu Villa.

"How is the deployment of troops at Castle Ogu, and when are you going to attack?"

"I'm sorry, Lord Borg, but this is a military secret, and my official position is too low to be clear. ”

"Hmm! I'll ask Alan directly in a moment. ”

It's been five days since he was stationed in the ancient city of Ogu, and Alan has not yet ordered a military operation against Ogu Villa. Kevin immediately realized that the situation was not as simple as it seemed.

"Lord Borg, there's the headquarters ahead, and I can only send you here. ”

The squadron leader reined in his horse and pointed to a building in front of him.

"It turned out to be here. ”

Kevin laughed and said that the building was none other than the trade shop he had been at the helm before.

The guards near the trade shop were even tighter, and there were constant people coming in and out of the store, and everyone had to go through strict checks, and the squadron leader handed Kevin over to a group leader and quickly left, and the team leader took Kevin into the trader's business.

"Oooo

There was a sound of footsteps, and Alan, who learned that Kevin was back, put down what he was doing and rushed down from the second floor.

"Alan, you're finally back. ”

"Kevin, you're back too. ”

The two brothers couldn't hide the excitement of being reunited after a long absence, and hugged each other excitedly.

"Alan, you changed the trade shop into a headquarters, how will I do business in the future?"

After meeting, the two came to the second floor, Kevin was in a very good mood, and couldn't help but joke when he looked at the military map hanging on the wall of the conference room.

"Kevin, don't think about business just yet, I have more important things you need to help me plan. ”

"What the hell is going on?"

Seeing Alan's solemn expression, Kevin knew that the matter was probably not trivial, and he became serious.

"Our army has been in the city for five days, but it has not launched an attack on the castle of Ogu, do you know why?"

"Why?"

"Because of the Yus Empire. ”

"They interfered?"

"On the first day we entered the city, Reinhardt came to the door and firmly opposed our military campaign to overthrow Holancest. ”

"This is an internal matter of the Gossa, can Yuss take care of it?"

"Reinhardt said that the ancient city of Okuss has been an integral part of the Yus Empire since the expulsion of the orcs more than three hundred years ago, and now I am leading a legion of nomads to attack the ancient city of Ous, which has seriously violated the territory and interests of the Yusi Empire, but considering the special relationship between the nomads and the ancient city of Ous, the Yusi Empire can not be pursued, but the Youth League must withdraw from the ancient city of Okusa and return to the grassland, if there is a lack of equipment and food and grass, the Yusi Empire is willing to help free of charge. ”

Reinhardt wanted to be beautiful, and let the nomads go to the steppe to be cannon fodder, which would draw the energy of the orcs and give Yuss a chance to breathe. However, this matter is really a bit difficult to do, and if Yuss wants to intervene, the teacher will be famous. ”

Hearing Allen's words, Kevin's brow furrowed. Nominally, the ancient city of Auss is not only the territory of the Yus Empire, but also the hereditary lord of the Yus Empire, whether it is against the ancient city of Auss or Holance, it is an invasion of the Yuss Empire, if it is a dispute within the city-state, it is better, but the main force of this war is nomads, and Yuss has every reason to intervene.

"And Yuss is definitely not simply scaring us. Our scouts detected that both Capra Pass and Nice were being urgently mobilized, and it seemed that they were preparing for a war. ”

"I said why Holland hid in the castle of Agu and didn't do anything, it looks like he has put all the treasure on Youss, and if Yuss really does something to us, he will definitely jump out again. ”

"With our current strength, although we have the upper hand in the fight against the Ogu family, if we really run into the Yus Empire, it will definitely be more than lucky. ”

"In that case, Alan, how are you going to deal with the current crisis?"

"That's what I want to talk to you about, I have a rough idea right now, and I need your help planning it. ”

"What thoughts, just say, if you need me, put out the fire, never give up. ”

"Haha! It's not that exaggerated. ”

Looking at Kevin's righteous and awe-inspiring expression, Alan smiled.
