Chapter 137: Samuel in the Pit

Luna, who returns to the castle, happens to run into Samuel, who has just gotten out of the car.

"Uncle~" Luna jumped out of the car and flew up, she hadn't seen her handsome uncle who had been busy making money in a few days.

"Yes, yes, I'm relieved to see you like this. Patting Luna's fat flesh, Samuel said with satisfaction.

"When did you come back?" I just went to see the teacher, and he was still talking about you!" Luna fell back to the ground, and followed Samuel as he strode towards the castle, his tail wagging unusually happy.

"When he came to the gate of the city, he was captured by your father's men. As he spoke, Samuel snorted at one of the lieutenants who followed him.

Luna looked Samuel up and down a few times, and to be honest, she really didn't see the slightest hint of the other party's obedience, but ......

"Then Uncle go and go to my father! I'll go and tell my mother, and ask her to send someone to talk to Parker. ”

"You're the most well-behaved~ I went to Yuguo this time to bring you a gift, and by the way, help me tell my sister-in-law that I will stay for dinner at night. ”

Samuel pinched Luna's face, and went straight to Silas's study.

In the study, looking at the younger brother who was striding over, it seemed that he was still a little fatter, and he was busy with the affairs of the homeless people recently, and Silas, who was so busy that he was about to scratch the hair on his head, couldn't help but snort heavily.

"Don't hum, this is really something that no one expected. Well, this is what the Eagle King gave you. Take a look first. Samuel took out a letter from his bosom and put it on Silas's desk, and then consciously turned it directly to the small table next to him, and poured himself water to drink.

After he poured three glasses of water, he sat down on the chair opposite Silas and said:

"Big brother, didn't you see it, I came out of the capital of Yuguo, all the way to our royal city, all the homeless people, not to mention wild beasts in the mountains and forests, even the roots and bark of the trees have been gnawed clean, but where it was originally a grassland, it is like locusts transiting. ”

"This is the castle, be careful what you say. Silas frowned and looked away from the letter the Eagle King had given him, glaring at Samuel.

Samuel sighed when he heard this, "Big brother, the homeless people are the outcasts of the Central Empire, but the civilians I met on the way back are the people of our Snow Wolf Country! I don't know how many people have been robbed by those homeless, this is still good! There are also herbivorous orcs who rely on farming, not only the whole family was killed, but even the crops in the field were robbed and cut by those homeless.

I should have arrived in Wangcheng more than ten days ago, why did you delay me for so long?"

"What did the lords do on your way back?" asked the letter in Silas' hand.

"Kill! I just don't let you enter the city, and you have to drive them to the mountains. I can't count the robbers I've encountered along the way. ”

Samuel was angry when he mentioned this, those people were really trouble-free, but he was suffering all the way, and the guards alone explained to several of them.

"However, there are some small landlords who take the opportunity to collect people and release their fields. However, they are very picky.

Those who can be accepted by them as tenant farmers are some displaced people who can take root, and those who can't stand our northern climate at first glance will either be driven away or will be in conflict.

In some places, even the landlord's house can let those homeless people rob it. ”

"How is it over there?" Silas asked with a frown as he glanced at the documents reported by the lords from all over the country asking for tax reductions.

"When I left the country of Yu, there weren't so many homeless people.

However, the group of birdmen began to pick and choose when they were at the border, and those who had wings were only allowed to pass, and those who did not have wings, if they dared to come hard, or took a detour, they were basically shot to death.

And I think the meaning of the Yu country is that those Yu people who were left behind are going to be used as soldiers. ”

Speaking of this, Samuel's eyes flashed with a hint of playfulness, and the corners of his lips also hooked up a wicked smile, and he hurriedly glanced at the birdmen who had been left behind in the feather country before leaving, most of them were afraid of the cold.

And the winter in the country of Yu is not only not warmer than that of the snow wolf country, but it is also windy.

In some places, strong winds blow all year round, and the wind is so strong that it can knock down trees that several people hug together.

"When winter comes, it's not our turn to see the excitement, instead of waiting to see the excitement of Yuguo, you might as well think about it, what are we going to do!"

Silas understood what Samuel was thinking at a glance, shook his head, and pushed back the Eagle King's letter and the documents asking for tax relief.

"These people are really ......" After reading those documents that cried for various reasons, the corners of Samuel's mouth twitched, but when he saw the letter from the Eagle King, he frowned, "Big brother, does he want to send troops with us to carve up the Central Empire?"

"yes, what do you think?" said Silas, reclining back in his chair, eager to hear what Samuel had to say.

"Don't tell me you want to say yes, you can't do this! If I knew that the old boy was holding this bad, I wouldn't bring him this letter!" Samuel's head shook like a rattle.

"Why can't you do it?" Silas asked, raising an eyebrow.

"Let's not say that the climate on the Central Empire's side is not suitable for us, let's just say that the small countries and tribes further south, I've been there, it's a place where raw meat is still eaten, there's nothing to talk about, it's much more difficult to prevent them than to defend the Central Empire!

Coupled with the extension of the coastal defense line, most of the cliffs on the side of Yuguo are cliffs, even if the increase in coastal defense is not a loss compared to the territory gained, but our side is all beaches, so how many people are added every year?

I'm C!Eagle King, this old boy really thinks that everyone else is stupider than him, right?!"

"There's one more thing you said. Looking at Samuel, who was angry and slapping the table, Silas reminded.

"What's missing?" Samuel looked at Silas in a daze.

"The regent of the Central Empire. Silas reminded with a slight look in his eyes.

"You say that......" Samuel was startled when he heard this.

Although he is not as keen on government affairs as he is about making money, as a prince, there is no shortage of books and classes that should have been studied back then.

Although most of the things that are not needed have been returned to the teacher over the years, the political acumen that has been cultivated is still there.

"But since the news of the increase in taxes came out from the Queen Mother of the Central Empire, he has not appeared again. ”

"Is he going to die? I've heard he's not too young. Samuel asked, thinking for a moment.

"I don't know, but I have to guard against it.

From an obscure old man who relied on the royal family's dead money to support his family, to the regent of the empire, no one has been wary of him all these years.

I don't believe he could die quietly anyway!" Silas sighed.

"And what about this?" Samuel rolled a stack of papers asking for tax deductions into a paper tube and tapped it on the table.

"Go and visit!" Silas said with a sudden smile as he looked at his brother.

"What?!" Samuel's eyes widened instantly.
