Chapter Seventy-Nine: The Spoils of War
"I won't be transferred by you!"
The black knight, with the big sword pestle, said coldly.
"This can't be a fool, is it?" roared Ravenna, already fantasizing about herself being tied up like a sheep, when the Black Knight came.
She tried to find out the reason in the eyes of the Black Knight, but all she saw was a chill, as cold as the ice of the North.
Things didn't happen to her.
The other side is not joking.
However, Ravenna still took a few deep breaths, and her chest rose and fell violently several times before calming down.
"If you want to hang a wolf, you can't give up meat. Since I chose to stay, I was ready to feed the meat. With that in mind, my brain started working again.
......
"Your Excellency...... You're scared Ravenna," said the lady, weeping, "you want ...... Will I not give it to you. ”
"It's still there," Jones said in surprise, "it's good that the golden dragon is here, hehe." ”
He then chuckled dryly, trying to ease the embarrassment, but he was still a little impulsive, especially when his planned task was interrupted.
Today, I am really embarrassed to misunderstand a woman and lose her proper demeanor.
......
Ravenna gave Jones a blank look, squirmed to his side, and slowly crouched down, her long skirt once again wrapped in a seductive arc.
"It's so small," Jones complained.
It turned out that Ravenna had pulled out a wooden box from the bottom of the bookshelf, which was a little larger than the leather parchment book.
That's why Jones has such feelings.
Ravenna puffed out her white cheeks and glanced at him again.
"It's beautiful, oh my God, it's so tempting," Jones muttered, his heart beating faster.
It turned out that as soon as the small wooden box was opened, the light that belonged to gold came out.
Inside is not a golden dragon, but a neatly arranged gold nuggets.
Ravenna held up the open wooden box with all her might, and the glow of gold poured into the deep groove of her upper body, which was extremely seductive.
Jones stepped forward and squeezed hard.
"Soft enough!"
The gold nugget was directly pinched down by him, although it was because of the iron glove, but it also showed that the purity of the gold was high enough.
"One, two, three...... Forty roots, how much?uh...... I can't feel it," Jones said with a pleading look at the lady, "this...... How much is a gold nugget worth?"
The lady stretched out two white fingers and looked at Jones with a little smugness.
"Twenty?" Jones asked tentatively.
The lady nodded heavily in line with Jones's excited expression, then walked to the desk and leaned down.
......
"That's eight hundred golden dragons," Jones thought happily, the loot had exceeded his expectations, so that his plan could progress faster.
"Excluding the Tully family in the Riverlands, the top of the list now is Blackwood, Brecken's family with thousands of years of heritage, and the Frey family, which is only three hundred years old. The next rank is the Piper, Dare, Mellister, Vance families, and the Smallwood family is the first class again...... Even a family of this level has so much treasure, which shows that the riverland is indeed rich. ”
With a clang, Ravenna pulled out two more chests, one containing a mixture of silver and gold coins, and the other containing sapphires, rubies, emeralds, amethysts, and garnets.
Jones still couldn't estimate the value of these things, so he had to look at the lady again for help.
"Coins are worth about eighty gold dragons, and gems are worth about one hundred gold dragons. The lady smiled lightly, she had discovered a weakness of the Black Knight.
"That's a thousand gold dragons in total," after Jones calculated the total value, he hugged a few wooden boxes heavily, "Don't panic if you have money, some experiments can also be carried out, if you don't succeed once, then twice." ”
He can now say that he has money, population, land, and soldiers, and he is the largest one within a radius of tens of kilometers.
This day must be better than before.
......
"My lordship...... Are you okay? I'm so hot, I'm going to wash ...... Take a bath. "When Ravenna said 'bath,' she dragged out her tail note for a long time.
"Oh, then there you go," Jones counted the dragons, nuggets, and gems several times, like a miser.
Just as Ravenna was about to lift her long skirt to reveal her fair thighs, the black knight seemed to think of something again, and strode out with all the money and treasures he had just obtained.
"I almost forgot something important," a cheerful voice came from a distance.
"I ......" Ravenna felt as if something was stuck in her throat, "what the fuck are ......"
......
The watchtower is the tallest building in the castle.
When Jones reached the roof, the sun was about to set and it was evening.
Standing on the top of the building, you can see the colors in the sky changing rapidly. Sometimes red, sometimes pale blue mixed with purple, sometimes blue and gold in red, gorgeous.
Looking down, you can see that rivers, woods, fields, and grassy fields are intertwined, showing the fertility of the land between the rivers.
"It should be in the northwest direction," Jones finally found his target according to the direction of the sun—a small hill, aka the noble heart.
It was also on that day that they marched and camped, and then they met the hill of the old dwarf woman.
"It's so close, more than an hour's ride," Jones lamented, this time they were coming down from the northeast, so there was no 'noble heart' along the way, and there was no such hill on the map, Jones had roughly deduced that the 'noble heart' was near the acorn hall based on the circumstances of the last march.
After comparing the distance, Jones noticed another interesting thing.
When they were stationed in the noble heart, according to the route of the kingkillers, the army of the kingkillers should have been here, or even in this castle.
"I don't know if you were like me at that time, looking at the sunset here, imagining the future plan......" Jones, who had money and settled down, suddenly had a bit of the feeling of a literati, "It's a pity, your sky is already dark, and the black prison in Riverrun City must be uncomfortable." ”
......
"Oops, my money. ”
Suddenly, a black figure scurried over, interrupting his emotion and almost frightening his golden dragon to fall out.
"Who?"
"Meow....... meow?"
I saw a black cat, silently walking on the edge of the roof, its body stretched long, its tail also raised high, turning its head vigilantly to look at the big man of the same color as it.
"Meow~" It screamed again, and then stopped caring about the big man, but raised one paw to himself, wiped it a few times on one side of its face, tilted its head and licked it clean with its tongue, and then raised its other paw, wiped it a few times, and licked it clean......
Jones watched the cat's movements with great interest, feeling very kind, after coming to this world, he had not encountered cats, but those were basically wild cats, and they were too different from those he had in his previous life.
And this cat is extremely clean, obviously a domestic cat.
"Meow," Jones called to it.
The black cat's movements paused obviously, looked up at him suspiciously, and then showed a 'bored guy' expression, and lowered his head to clean himself up.
"Hehe, it's still so cold," Jones thought helplessly, but for the cat's safety, he didn't plan to get closer, but waved his hand at it from a distance.
"See you soon, cat~"
......
Looking at the back of Jones leaving, the black cat had a humanized expression on his face, and a pair of turquoise eyes also emitted an eerie light......
