Chapter 119: The Murderer

After seeing off Phil Mithril, Yunlang and Vivien lingered in the living room for a while.

During this time, Vivien asked with some concern, "Master, you want to reuse Phil Mithril because you like her business talents, but she may not be loyal to you...... Do you need to investigate more?"

Yun Lang was thinking about other things, and when he heard her inquiry, he didn't answer directly, but asked: "What do you think of her? You and I don't have to hide it, just say it!"

He also took great pains to get Vivian to use more brains......

Vivian thought about it carefully before she replied cautiously, "Master, Vivien thinks she's ...... No manners, boldness, and insidious and cunning......"

"Hehe, she is so unbearable in your eyes!" Yun Lang smiled dumbly, and without waiting for Vivian to explain, he took the initiative to encourage: "Vivian, you observed well, in fact....... I think so too!"

"That'....... Then why are you trying to recruit and reuse her?" Vivien snapped.

"Ha, these are disadvantages, but in the course of business, they are advantages. He saw that Vivien was puzzled, so he had to take it step by step: "In the future, the finances in the territory need to be managed by a person, if you appoint an honest person who does not know how to be flexible and does not understand business affairs to manage, of course it will be safer, but correspondingly, he will not have the ability to continue to expand his wealth and enrich the entire territory."

Although Miss Phil is more thoughtful, she is bold and careful, does not stick to the status quo, and has a strong desire to explore. If the financial management of the territory is put in her hands, as long as it is properly supervised, she will be able to bring us a steady stream of wealth at that time.

In addition to these, the Mithril family she represents is already very wealthy. If she can get involved, the Mithril family will have to contribute more or less, and maybe she can alleviate some of the financial pressure. ”

Speaking of this, Vivien finally understood a little, but asked puzzledly: "Master, according to Vivian's observation, you don't seem to be a person who loves money!"

"Hahaha...... I also like money, and I like the feeling of spending money even more,...... Far from it, the more than 2,000 gold coins we brought from Corrant City will soon be exhausted. At that point, whether it's training fighters, buying equipment, or other things, you'll have to be smart about what you want to do...... I hope that before that day comes, Miss Phil can make her choice sooner. "Yunlang really can't wait.

"What if....... She won't accept your invitation?" Vivien thought for a moment, and suggested another possibility.

"Hah, it's simple...... Then give the Mithril family first, and put some pressure on it appropriately!" When he said this, Yun Lang smiled very evilly.

To the southwest of Shining Gold Town, near the Death Mountains, there is a rather prosperous village called Falling Hammer Village.

It is said that 100 years ago, the location of the current village of Luohammer was still a deserted open space. It wasn't until the Empire's exploration party arrived and discovered that the nearby mountains were rich in minerals that it began to prosper.

Later, because it was difficult to transport the things out of Shining Gold Town, the income was very small. Over time, the Imperial Family's control of the minerals became looser.

Eventually, the mining rights of these minerals were transferred to the hands of the Hall family. And the patriarch of the Hall family, for this reason, was additionally rewarded by the imperial family and became a baron.

The Hall family has been in business for 100 years, and has long since established itself and accumulated a lot of wealth.

It's just that the location of Falling Hammer Village is relatively remote, and the power possessed by the Hall family is difficult to extend outward, so it seems relatively weak.......

In fact, the hall family's escort team is well-equipped and brave in battle, but it is much stronger than the escort team of the other two big families!

After the captain of the Hall family's guard, Doug Hall, escorted the family's goods to Shinjin Town to complete the transaction, he ran into Yunlang and his party on the way, and was entrusted by Yunlang to send a message to the current patriarch of the Hall family, saying that he wanted to discuss some important matters with her head-on.

Doug Hall knew the responsibility, so he sped up and returned to Hammer Village.

When he first entered the Hammer Village, he noticed that people were in a hurry, and the guards were patrolling back and forth, and the atmosphere was a little unusual.

Later, he met an acquaintance and inquired a little, only to learn that not long ago, a large number of monsters suddenly invaded the village and caused death and injury.

Things like this happen from time to time, and he doesn't find it particularly strange.

It's just that as the captain of the escort team, he vaguely feels that this is not a good sign.

Because, this shows that there are not only more and more monsters in the Death Mountain Range, but also more and more restless, even if the Hall family can still maintain the situation, but after a while, if the monsters continue to increase, it will be difficult to say......

When he arrived at the chief's house worriedly, he found that he was meeting with a group of prestigious people to discuss important matters. Out of respect, he didn't bother, and waited patiently in the courtyard first.

However, when the patriarch heard the news that he had returned, he immediately summoned him in. He was the captain of the Hall family's bodyguard, and he was still qualified to attend these meetings.

Before Doug entered the door, he first sorted out his dusty appearance, and only after feeling that he was okay did he slowly enter the house.

When he entered, everyone looked at him, but none of them said hello. Judging from their heavy expressions, they were all in a bad mood.

After the matriarch of the Hall family nodded at him, he returned the salute, then walked to a clearing by the door, and stood there.

The meeting continued.

The matriarch of the Hall family is named Sylvia Kryptonin Hall, twenty-nine years old, and is a young master of the Great Axe.

When she was fifteen years old, her father, the former patriarch of the House of Hall, had betrothed her to a handsome young knight.

Two years later, just two months before her marriage, she had a fair fight with her fiancé to determine her future family status.

Both used all their strength in the fight, and in the end, she had the upper hand and killed her fiancé by mistake....... Grief-stricken, she made a vow that she would not remarry in this life, and was willing to dedicate her life to the Hall family.

Her fiancé's family, of course, was dissatisfied and provoked several times, but they were all forcibly repelled by the Hall family. Later, she was assassinated several times, not surprisingly by her fiancé's family.

In the face of these threats, she never offered revenge, and even dissuaded the indignant people from targeting her fiancé's family, and even said that what happened to her now was because of her fault.......

In her twenty-sixth year, her fighting spirit was condensed, and she entered the fourth order in one fell swoop, becoming a giant axe master. Her fiancé's family, feeling that there was no hope of revenge, moved the family and left Shanjin Town, where he went.

Since then, the feud that has lasted for nearly ten years has come to an end......

By the time she was twenty-eight years old, her father's life had come to an end. When he was dying, he chose this daughter as the successor to the patriarch of the Hall family.

Her two older brothers and one younger brother opposed her as the patriarch and joined forces to cause several unrests to force her to step down as patriarch.

But she also has her own large group of supporters, forcing her to be unable to back down.

In the end, the two sides fought, and she defeated her opponent in one fell swoop with her transcendent combat power.

After her eldest brother was defeated, he was killed in the chaos, the second brother was missing, and the sixth brother was exiled...... The fifth sister and her brother-in-law, who had originally supported her, were killed in the battle, the third brother lost his legs and took a back seat, and the seventh brother, disheartened, left the town of Shining Gold and went to the imperial capital.

Although she controls the entire Hall family, she has gained a notoriety - the Killer of Relatives!
