"What shall we do? Father, he will agree, I know him too well!" Solomon had just walked on his front foot, and Althea panicked.

"Calm down, Althea, calm down. Zhang Li shook her slender body and forcibly straightened her.

"Things don't have to be as he says, the results of this contest have been spread all over the Elwyn Forest by the megaphone, and now you can definitely take your loot before he moves fast, and his men have no reason to stop you from taking your own. In Zhang Li's opinion, since Duke Solomon's threat is not to agree to the marriage contract, he will rob those spoils regardless of his reputation, so it is better to fight for a time, before his order reaches Blackwell, Althea directly took the airship over and took the wealth first, it has become an established fact that if you still want to rob it, it is a deliberate provocation, and the Storm Council will come forward to reconcile.

Who knew that Althea shook her head with a sad face: "This is no longer a problem with those trophies, even if there is no such loot, my father will definitely agree, aside from the relationship and status of the two families, my father will never want to have a stalemate with the Solomon family, if a marriage contract can not only ease the relationship between the two families, but also get a strong ally, he will definitely agree!"

"Alright, alright. Holding Althea who was crying and rubbing around in his arms, Zhang Li didn't have the heart to enjoy it.

"You're only sixteen years old this year, it's too early to get married anyway, even if you do have a marriage contract, it will take a few years to get married, and in a few years, any accident can happen. ”

Althea raised her head instantly, widened her eyes and whispered, "You're going to assassinate him?!" Looking at her expression, she seemed to be surprised and a little excited.

"Of course not, destroying a person doesn't necessarily have to make him physically dead, there are many ways, in short, just take your time......"

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

"There, do you see that ruins?It is said that it used to be our family's castle, the orcs destroyed it, and it was never rebuilt, ah~~ Speaking of which, I have never lived in a castle, when I was born, my father and they had just returned to the territory from the run, and at that time the sky had already appeared this night, and my father was exhausted just restoring some of the basic buildings in the territory, and we really couldn't afford the cost of a castle......" On Zhang Li's war airship, the embraced Althea points to a rubble ruin, like Zhang Li telling its history.

They are now on their way back to Nighttown.

The castle, which is not comfortable to live in, and the stone building that is useless except for a little sense of security can be said to be a symbol of nobility, and even many small nobles with only a few hundred households will build a small castle to support the faΓ§ade, even if it will be in debt.

The Eberlock family was once extremely brilliant, and just by looking at the area of the rubble pile, you can see how rich they were back then, which was not at all smaller than the area of the Stormwind King's Palace.

But now they are reluctant to build even a small castle.

"Hmph, but this time we can finally rebuild the castle, and when it's done, I'll have to choose the largest room, with a huge window to catch sunlight, a balcony, a private bathroom, and a sofa...... Think about it, what a pleasant day it would be to be woken up by the first rays of the morning sun in the castle full of heaviness every day......" The little beauty's face was happy at this time, like a kitten that had stolen a fish.

Seeing her like this, Zhang Li couldn't help but reach out and pinch her nose, causing a burst of dissatisfaction.

"By the way, I don't know how much money you've looted this time. "I have a lot of money to build a castle.

"Hee-hee, guess how many. Althea's eyes instantly turned into a gold coin, which could make this eldest lady with miser attributes look like this, Zhang Li guessed that it would be at least six figures.

So he said uncertainly: "500,000 gold coins?"

"Hmph, it's less, the three councils have been looting for so many years, how can it be only 500,000. ”

"Seven figures! Five million!"

"Of course, it can't be so much. Althea slapped Zhang Li lightly: "It's two million .75 million." ”

"Hiss~~!" Zhang Li took a long breath, he was stunned by this number.

"Gold?"

"What do you think?"

Zhang Li's expression was very incredible, more than two million gold coins, judging from the fact that he could build a small war airship for more than six thousand gold, more than two million could build four hundred war airships like him, and there would be almost thirty or forty of them in exchange for large war airships, which was still in the case of unskilled technology, if the alliance had its own airship manufacturing plant, the number could probably be doubled.

In the history of the game, there are only a few large airships in the main fleet of the Alliance?

"I'll go! They're so greedy. In other words, the people of the Stormwind Kingdom have a lot of oil and water that can be blown off their bodies.

Althea was satisfied with Zhang Li's surprised expression.

"It's not all greed, it's also counting the wealth they've accumulated over generations, but that's probably not much. ”

"With millions in their hands, they are reluctant to recruit more troops, they are not unjustly killed, but now that you have this money, should you find a way to regain the lost land?"

"Uncle Garrysol has begun to recruit adventurers in the Elwyn Forest, and we have also reached an agreement with many blacksmith shops in Stormwind City, and they will also speed up the production of weapons and equipment, I believe that in half a year at most, we can gather an army of tens of thousands of people to annihilate all the enemies in the territory in one fell swoop! Next, we will rebuild the territory, attract free people, and reclaim the wasteland......" Althea crossed her fingers excitedly, she was very happy, she was completely a little girl full of expectations for the future.

She counted a lot of things to do in the future, until she looked up once and found that Zhang Li's expression didn't seem to be very happy.

She pouted directly, and asked aggrievedly, "What's wrong with you? Why do you show this expression? Aren't you happy for me?"

Zhang immediately forced a smile.

"Of course I'm happy for you, just ...... I'm thinking, with this money, you don't need to rely on my factory anymore, and I can't bully you like before in the future, so I always feel a little lonely when I think about it......"

"Bully me?" Althea seemed to think of something, her little face suddenly turned red, and her little fist landed on Zhang Li's chest.

"How do you think about all these bad things!"

"Eh, I remember someone who liked it and cooperated with it later......"

"No!" pop, small fists rained down, and the goblin who was driving the airship next to him said, I refuse this ton of dog food.

frolicked for a while, and the two stuck together in a very ambiguous posture.

"I mean really, even if everyone forgets, I will always remember who supported us in our most difficult times......" Althea said thoughtfully, burying her head in her chest.

"And the reason why we can get this wealth is also thanks to you, we owe you, and the kingdom of Stormwind owes you ......"

Due to all kinds of touching those places that should not be touched, making people crispy and soft, Althea can only rely on Zhang Li to stand up straight, but in this way, Zhang Li will only get worse, she will only get softer and softer......

"And how are you going to repay me?"

"What do you want?"

"You know what I want. ”

"Hmm~~Woo~~ at night...... Come to my room......"
