"No!" said Duke Eberlock's villa, the gray-haired Duke sternly vetoed something.

"Don't think about this anymore, I can allow him to be your lover, but marrying him is absolutely impossible!"

"Why!?" Althea yelled, her actions and expressions fully illustrating what an adolescent child is.

"Why? Because he is a lowly robber, how is he worthy to have the daughter of the Eberlocks!?"

"But he's a Stormwind Councilor now......"

"The councillor can't change his lowly nature! Even in a few hundred years, he will still be a lowly bandit family in front of us!"

Althea looked at her father in a daze, and said in disbelief: "I really can't imagine that you would say this, if it weren't for him, we wouldn't be able to survive for half a year...... In fact, even if there is no Zhang Li, they can hold on, and it will last for four years, but people who have not experienced it naturally can't imagine what kind of day it will be.

"That's why I allowed him to be your lover, this is already a great gift to him, as the heir of the Twilight Forest, you just need to make sure that your first child gives birth to an heir of pure noble blood, and then I don't care what you want. "The Duke has always been kind and kind in front of outsiders, as if he is easy to discuss everything, but at this time, he has an unusually serious face.

Althea clearly couldn't accept this, her eyes were full of tears and she was trembling.

"I, I don't want to have children with others......"

The old duke's eyes widened instantly: "This is not up to you! You are the daughter of Eberlock! You are the next duchess! Everything you do must be family-oriented!"

"......" Althea bit her lower lip and stared at her father, but her eyes were clearly lacking in aggression.

"It would be nice if my brother could come back......"

"Even if your brother comes back, you will not be able to marry him! Your future husband can only be a prince and nobleman! There is absolutely no possibility for you to marry him!"

The result of the collision between the adolescent rebellious daughter and the father who will never back down is that the daughter is wronged.

"When I was fourteen years old, you made me the commander of the Night's Watch, and since then I have lived a life of fighting and killing, and do you know how much I envy other girls? They can dress up in beautiful clothes, and they can learn to dress as ladies every day, and they can indulge in art, music, and fine arts, and I, I, I am thinking about how to pull the ogre's intestines out of their stomachs!" Althea roared, and then said tremblingly, " I also want to be a normal woman, and I also longing for love, but none of this is allowed, just because I am Eberlock's daughter......" Leaving such a string of words, Althea ran directly outside, crying as she ran.

"Come back! Come back to me! Ground her! If she doesn't change her mind, she won't be allowed to go out in the future!"

..................

Zhang Li won't know for the time being, because his relationship with Althea and her father was very unpleasant, and he is now waiting in his former office to collect the debt.

The shares were indeed given to Althea, but just as Althea had feared, Duke Eberlock was of course also worried that Zhang Li would build factories elsewhere, and at that time they had not yet received this huge war proceeds, and Duke Eberlock always acted with noose.

So in order to appease Zhang Li, he asked Althea to tell Zhang Li that although his shares were gone, he could still get dividends from the shares, and promised to give him the title of knight, as long as he didn't build factories elsewhere.

At that time, the old parliamentarian had not been defeated, Zhang Li had not yet become a councilor, and the Eberlock family had not received this huge sum, so it can be said that Duke Eberlock was very sincere at that time.

But now his little stake doesn't seem to be that important, but no matter how small a mosquito is, it's meat, not to mention that soap is not a mosquito yet, Duke Eberlock still wants to monopolize the soap trade, so this proposal still works, Zhang Li followed Althea back this time for this purpose.

He didn't think about any dividends or dividends, he directly bid 100,000 gold, give me 100,000 gold, and all the shares belonged to you, and he also promised not to use the idea of soap again, with the current profit of soap, 100,000 gold was earned back in less than seven or eight years, it can be said that Zhang Li lost too much, Duke Eberlock agreed without thinking about it.

But did Zhang Li really lose? No, no, only he knew that in three years, only three years later, Azeroth would enter a turbulent period, and instead of going through a long stream and being unprepared in turbulent times, it was better to directly ask for a huge sum of money for him to drive.

But in the eyes of everyone, of course, this decision was not like this, and those who knew his relationship with Althea felt that he was deliberately selling to the Eberlock family to please others, so there were those who ridiculed it, and so did those who admired it.

Lin Lin finally settled the account, took the dividends he had received in the past few months, and then took the letter from Duke Eberlock, which said that the garrison Garisol would pay Zhang Li 100,000 of the 2.75 million war money, and Zhang Li left the factory that once belonged to him.

He didn't have much to go to next, and although he could go back to Stormwind directly, he stayed because of the inappropriate agreement for children in the evening.

He now wants to find a way to pass the time during the day, and there are really no entertainment facilities in Night Town, so Zhang Li plans to go to Hogan's Mage Tower to have a look, after all, he learned magic there for half a year, thinking that he may not come back for a long time, how can he thank others.

Walking in the car easily, Zhang Li heard the voice of a group of children, but the voice was not very friendly.

"Wild Child!Wild Child!Wild Child Nobody Wants!Hahahaha!" A group of children dressed in silk clothes, but because they didn't know where to go for a day, they became like mud monkeys, and they were laughing around a little Lori.

"Lily is not a wild child!" Little Lori wears a big peaked mage hat, and her identity is Hogan's granddaughter, that is, Zhang Li's little sister.

Speaking of which, Zhang Li was difficult to get started with magic at first, and in order to be able to learn and master it as soon as possible, he tempted this little senior sister with good food.

Now seeing a group of children bullying her, Zhang Li frowned unconsciously.

"You are a wild child, my mother said, your mother is a cheap woman who likes to steal men everywhere, you are a wild seed, no wonder your father left you and ran away. ”

Seriously, the so-called original goodness of human beings is a complete joke, the reason why we think that children are pure and lovely, a large part of the factor is completely due to the instinct of mammals to protect their offspring, if you don't look at their so-called innocent and immature skin, and look at them as adults, you will find what is called greed, ego, unreasonableness, and they even like to take pleasure in the pain of others.

If you think about it, when you were a child, there were always a few bullied children in a class.

Zhang Li hates children very much, but he also likes children, this is very contradictory, in fact, it is not contradictory, of course what he likes is obedient and sensible children, and he is definitely not used to being well-behaved.

So he walked straight over, with a calm face, and soon a child saw him and recognized him.

Zhang Li is definitely very famous in Night Town, most of these children are the children of nobles under Eberlock, and many of their parents have worked under Zhang Li.

After recognizing the person, these children immediately stopped fooling around, given that they had been taught a lesson by Zhang Li when they bullied Lily before, and they all became good babies in the face of Zhang Li.

Without Zhang Li saying anything, just a fierce look, the group of children screamed and fled from here.

"Lily, did you miss me during my absence?" Different from the face of those bear children, Zhang Li was really very gentle in the face of this little senior sister.

Lily stared at Zhang Li with wide eyes, her eyes gradually filled with mist, and then ......

"Wow!" he cried and threw himself into Zhang Li's arms.
