"Looks like my father already knew......

Baron Jonas's performance caught Leylin's eyes, and he immediately had a guess, I am afraid that if he hadn't taken the opportunity to send Isabel away, the Baron would have dealt with the other party when he returned.

At that time, there may be bad news passed on, or even that cousin directly 'died of illness', after all, the church in this world does not have the slightest patience for the believers of demons and devils, and even relatives and friends will be implicated.

Father and son tacitly went to the feast together, as if they had forgotten Isabelle's existence.

The whole banquet was so lively that even Snow, the bard who had recently come to the port, was invited to perform, and his voice was as graceful as that of a lark, and he sang a few short poems to the applause of the audience.

It's just that after the banquet is over, Lei Lin sees that the other party has been invited into his father's study, and it seems that this time the baron invited the other party to come for the sake of performance.

None of this mattered to Leylin, though, as he prepared to move out after the feast, directing the pirate group and trade.

Of course, it had to be after the relationship with the Viscount Dim had eased, or even after the prisoners had been handed over and the contract had been signed.

......

"Smack!" A crisp slap landed directly on the young man's face, immediately causing his fair face to swell up with a big one.

"O gods, how could I have such a stupid child as you!"

In front of the young man was an angry middle-aged man, who was dressed in an extremely elaborate aristocratic attire. The edges are intricately embroidered with gold threads, imbued with a spirit style. On the other side's ten fingers, there were strange treasure rings of various colors, and even a few of them even emitted powerful spell light.

This is the controller of the entire Balti Islands. He is also the younger brother of the king of Dambles, the Marquis de Louis.

Although the king obviously would not be stingy with the name of a court duke if it were to be a title, Louis was obviously more focused on strength, and this kind of hereditary nobility with a territory, even if it was the king's own children, could not necessarily get it.

And, as the kingdom's outer seas continued to develop, so did the profits of trade, much to the satisfaction of the Marquis de Louis.

The only thing that made him frown a little. Even in the vast open sea, there are still so many fiefdoms of small nobles, as well as a group of disobedient barbarian pirates, who are as conspicuous and uncomfortable as nails.

Therefore, when his unsuccessful son prayed for a land, the Marquis of Louis agreed.

It's just that Marquis Louis looked at Viscount Dim in front of him, and really had a feeling of hating iron but not steel: "Bastard! You are too unruly, not only the assassination of the mainland." Even the ocean has not been mastered well, and even the Black Tiger Pirate Group has lost it......"

Speaking of this, even the Marquis Louis felt a little distressed, although those filthy and despicable pirates would not frown even if they had killed many Marquises. But Steve, the leader of the tenth-level warrior, was still a good subordinate, and a group of rogue assassins he had cultivated also got in.

"And!"

The Marquis Louis's chest rose and fell. Throwing a piece of letterhead directly into Tim's face.

"Look, this guy from Griffitz sent it on purpose. Not only did you not succeed in this move. Instead, it completely pushed the Faolan family into the camp of those rednecks!"

Tim let the letterhead slap on his face, the tingling sensation coming over him, his eyes filled with angry fire.

"Father, please give me another chance! If you send me Poruj, I will be able to ......."

Viscount Dim looked very similar to the Marquis de Louis, except that he was much younger, with a pair of narrow eyes, and he bowed his body respectfully at this time.

"Roll !!"

But in response to him was the hysterical rant of the Marquis.

The door was slammed shut, and Tim stroked his swollen face, and the burning pain made the anger in his heart burn even more.

"Haha...... My dear brother, you seem to be in some trouble?"

The surrounding maids naturally did not dare to come over to provoke Dim in this state, and they all wanted to learn from the ostrich to bury their heads in the carpet, but another aristocratic young man walked over unceremoniously, and his face seemed to be full of teasing smiles.

"Big brother!"

Dimu covered his face and looked at the visitor, quite embarrassed, this is the marquis's sister-in-law, who will inherit the title and the existence of the Balti Islands in the future, especially since the other party has the support of a noble matrilineal family, compared to his own humble background, he can only rely on the marquis's love and prominent guy before, I don't know how much.

"Yo, brother, why are you hurt? Why don't you go and ask the priest to come over!"

The young man roared at the attendant behind him, as if he was really a big brother who cared about his younger brother very much, but Dim seemed to see a deep banter in the bottom of the other party's eyes.

"Damn!

It wasn't until he walked out of this mansion that Diem's face was completely gloomy.

"I will not let go of these people who have insulted me, I swear!!"

"Also, that Faoran Island, and that little nobleman named Leylin! I want you all to go to hell to repent!"

Diem's face was hideous, like a ferocious beast, and he let out a low roar of injury.

......

Of course, Lei Lin would not know all this, but he could almost guess a little, but at this time, his mind was all attracted by other affairs.

The place where Leylin chose to live in seclusion was on the other side of the island of Faoran.

Because the Faolan family has not been rooting here for a long time, the number of farmers recruited and the number of slaves purchased is insufficient, so the entire island has not been completely developed, the reason why Lei Lin chose this place, in addition to the few people visited, is to see a large area of low-lying beach nearby, such a flat landscape is also very rare on Faoran Island, enough for Lei Lin to do a lot of things.

At present, Lei Lin has only built a few wooden houses in the vicinity, as if he is really going to do penance.

By this time, information from the family had been continuously transmitted through Jacob.

"The handover of the captives has been completed, but is it just that the other party refuses to sign any contract?"

Leylin looked at the coastline in the distance, and there seemed to be a different kind of light flashing in his eyes.

"Yes, young master!" Jacob stood behind Leylin, his expression humble and respectful, through the previous few battles, he had been completely convinced of Leylin, and even his loyalty could be compared to Baron Jones.

"It seems that the other party seems to be quite unwilling?" After staring at the blue sea not far away for a long time, Lei Lin suddenly smiled and said slowly.

"That's for sure, but the other party has also hinted that they won't take action against our family at the moment!" and the Baron agreed. ”

"It's just a temporary peace! The other side's plans are disrupted, they need to be redeployed, and our side also needs to accumulate strength!"

Leylin already smelled something, it wasn't peace, it was just a brief truce.

Once the opponent has redeployed, he will definitely attack them again!

Of course, Leylin would not refuse, either, because he was also short of time.

"How are the slaves needed, and the sugar and fishing boats ready?"

Leylin asked, this was his preparation for the sugar and fish floss trade he had mentioned earlier with the baron.

"I have found a small merchant in the harbor who is willing to provide a channel for the purchase of slaves and raw sugar, and as for the fishermen and fishing boats, a notice has been posted on the territory, and the civilians who are willing to come here can get preferential tax treatment......

Jacob said respectfully.

"Very well, as for the financial aspect, you don't have to worry, Steve's small treasury should barely be enough for the initial investment, and my father promised to give it all to me to use......"

Before handing over the captives, Leylin had squeezed all of Steve's surplus value out of his body, and had also acquired the treasures of the other party, as well as several places where the treasures were allegedly buried - the pirates had a habit of exchanging their wealth for stable metal currency and burying it secretly on a deserted island.

All in all, the total value of these things is about a thousand gold coins, which is enough for the initial investment.

Later, of course, other additions were needed, but Leylin already had a draft, and Isabel's pirate group was prepared for this.

"The slave trade? I demand a slave who is skilled in carpentry and stonemasonry, and the price is acceptable......

The current kingdom of Dambrais is in the era of continuous exploration of the open sea, a large number of barren archipelago has been discovered, and there are a large number of indigenous people, tropical forests, minerals, ancient creatures on the island, and of course, disease and death are also indispensable.

And since the common people of the interior were rarely willing to follow their lords to the open sea, slaves were indispensable if the islands were to be truly developed.

The Marquis de Louis of the Balti Islands was the biggest beneficiary of this trade.

In the hands of the other party, the huge slave trade has even formed an industrial chain, not only trading with various pirate groups, but even setting up a special slave hunting team.

In the slave trade, the undomesticated natives were naturally the lowest, and could only be put into the gladiatorial arena or as sacrifices to other evil gods, and the value of the natives after taming was about twice as high, and if they were slaves who had mastered the skills of arable land, or stonemasons and carpenters, the price would rise.

However, these are only low-level, really high-end slaves, or those professional or specially trained and beautiful female slaves, each of whom can be sold for a sky-high price on the mainland! (To be continued......
