"Master Kanter, how much grain are you going to buy? If it's not much, for the sake of you being my son's old friend, I'll give you some without charging a penny, but if it's too big, I need to think about it. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo”

The Count of Lorraine said cautiously.

"500,000 pounds!"

This is the figure that Kevin Borg calculated based on Isha's needs before he set off, and at least to meet the needs of this year's refugees.

"Master Kanter, there is not so much grain in the granary now, and if it must be 500,000 pounds, I am afraid it will not be until the wheat is ripe this summer. ”

The Count of Lorraine replied apologetically, and then ordered the servant to pour Alan a glass of muller, which was a fine wine, and if Alan had drunk it and hooked the worms, then he must have gone to the vineyard to find Elvis, for it was produced there.

"If that's the case, I can buy less and then wait for the summer grain harvest to make up for the shortfall. I have one more thing to ask, Lord Earl. ”

Although Alan may not really believe the earl's words, but after thinking about it, he still feels that this is the safest way at present, buy some food for emergencies first, anyway, it is not too long before the summer grain harvest, and he has completed the task of exterminating the horse bandits and came back just in time to escort the grain back. However, Alan immediately thought of another purpose for his visit, so he continued to ask.

"Your Excellency, please speak. ”

"Your Excellency, your territory is adjacent to the Hig Empire, and it is not too far from the Great Rift Valley of the Demon Dragon, I heard that there are horse bandits going on over there, I wonder if the Earl can know about the situation over there?"

Alan's words made the Earl of Lorraine nervous again, and he couldn't understand why Eren had brought the topic to the horse bandits, but Eren didn't mention Elvis.

"Why would Your Excellency the Wizard be interested in Higg's horse bandits?"

The Earl of Lorraine asked tentatively.

"A friend of mine who is a mercenary has received a mission to go to Higg, just passing through the area where horse bandits are active, I have heard that the Bols horse bandits are very vicious, so I want to know the situation before I can decide what to do, although the employer pays him very well, but if the danger factor is too high, I can only persuade him to give up. ”

Allen's words are also false, and there is a mission that is true, but not to avoid horse bandits, but to be able to eliminate them.

"I see. Unfortunately, Master Kante, I don't know much about the situation with the bandits. However, Elvis's station is very close to the border, and he has always been very concerned about the bandits over there, and Robert, the border guard, has a good relationship with Elvis, and he can get a lot of horse bandits' movements from Robert, so as long as you go south to find him, I believe you will get the information you want. ”

The Earl of Lorraine saw an opportunity and immediately decided to put the matter on Elvis so that he could send Alan away, fearing that he would have a long night of dreams if he stayed here.

"Okay, then, I'll go meet Elvis first. ”

Alan nodded, finally determined to go see Elvis immediately. Alan was certainly no stranger to the Robert mentioned by the Earl of Lorraine, and he was one of the few knight academy cadets that Allen knew. In Allen's mind, Robert is an easy-going man with a prominent family background, but he is never arrogant, and although he is mediocre in ability, he is trustworthy. When Elvis was in the Academy of Magic, he used Robert to do a lot of things, and Robert got the reward for Elvis's home-brewed wine, and now Elvis is resident in the winery, so Robert, who loves wine, must have to harass Elvis, and at the same time give some information to Elvis. If Elvis doesn't have a situation with horse bandits, then let Elvis take him directly to Robert, maybe there will be something else.

Alan decided to go to Elvis first, as for the purchase of grain, after meeting Elvis, he would use his connections to find the Earl of Lorraine again, and with Elvis's help, he might be able to get twice the result with half the effort.

"Is there anything else I can do to help you, Master Kanter?"

The Earl of Lorraine looked at Alan in thought and asked with a smile on his face.

"Oh, not yet. Thank you, Your Excellency, I have offended me a lot today, and I hope you will forgive me, so I will take my leave first. ”

Anxious to meet Elvis, Eren stood up and prepared to leave, apologizing for his previous trespass. But as soon as his ass left the chair, the door to the living room opposite was suddenly slammed open.

"Mr. Kanter, don't listen to their nonsense, he is not in the vineyard at all. ”

A middle-aged woman with her hair scattered and drenched rushed in from outside the door, and shouted at Eren as soon as she rushed in.

"What did you say?"

Alan was taken aback by the middle-aged woman's words, and finally realized that he had been deceived by his carelessness.

"The bold subordinate dared to break into the master's room without permission, and threw her out to me. ”

The Countess, who had always been calm, suddenly jumped up from her chair and shouted in a sharp and angry voice.

When the butler heard the countess's order, he rushed up with two attendants, and was about to catch the middle-aged woman, but before the two attendants could make a move, their bodies seemed to hit an invisible wall, and then they were thrown out with a strong force.

"Bang... Crash... Oops..."

A series of sounds sounded, and the two attendants hit the tables and chairs placed in the living room, and the huge force immediately broke the hardwood tables and chairs, and the broken wood was scattered all over the ground, and the two people kept crying out in pain, and they couldn't get up for a long time.

"Get this crazy woman out there, crazy all day, talking nonsense everywhere. ”

Cloney Lorraine, who had been sitting next to the countess, jumped out in anger after her mother, pointed at the middle-aged woman, and shouted outside.

"Someone, someone!"

Hearing the young master's order, and seeing the two attendants flying out, the housekeeper didn't dare to do anything, so he could only shout. The sound came down the half-open door, and there was a commotion outside. Followed by the sound of hurried footsteps and the sound of fighting, Clooney in the living room looked at the door, but there was not even a figure for a while, but the screams outside were already one after another, listening to the screams that obviously had an accent from the southeast region of the empire, obviously not from the guests waiting outside.

"It's the other way around! It's the other way around! A subordinate dares to attack his master with outsiders. ”

Seeing that the attendants outside were stopped and could not come in for a long time, Clooney was furious, he pulled out the saber at his waist with a "bang", and rushed towards the middle-aged woman with a wave.

"Stop. ”

The Count of Lorraine finally shouted, but it was a little late, not that the Count of Lorraine did not succeed in stopping Clooney from harming the middle-aged woman, but he did not succeed in preventing Clooney from being hurt.

Clooney, wielding the sword, suddenly felt a sharp pain in his wrist, and then his sword came out of his hand, and with a "ding" sound, the sword flew diagonally upwards, hit the roof, and after making a crisp sound, it was bounced back, and the tip of the sword fell straight towards the top of his head.
