Chapter 277: A Weapon That Corrodes the Mind

Once the Holy Seagod Empire becomes the target of public criticism, coupled with the turmoil in the center of power, and the chaos of the nobles within the empire, it is with the power of Rui Min-Nalong, there will inevitably be a period of turmoil, so that the external environment that Zhou Mo wants will be achieved.

A slight mention of Ruiwen in words, as Zhou Mo expected, Ruiwen was very confident in the agreement with the sage, and did not take it to heart.

Zhou Mo didn't say much more, questioning the Sea Emperor Ancestor was indeed not something Sadeven should do.

A smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and Zhou Mo's eyes turned back to the training of the Praetorian Guards, and now the only obstacle was the imperial army he had built himself.

Reewen Naronmo was shocked, and she frowned at the moment, her intuition told her that something extremely bad was going to happen, but Reven carefully reviewed everything, but found no clue.

But there was a haze in his heart, and he paid attention to Sadevan's reminder.

"Sadivan, do you really think that the unrest of the nobles will trigger the prying eyes of the surrounding countries?"

Ruiwen suddenly asked, which made Zhou Mo panic slightly, this woman's intuition was simply terrifying!

"Yes, I'm worried, but since the gods above have made an agreement, presumably that situation will not occur, after all, the power of the gods is the foundation that maintains the existence of the major empires, and no one can go against the common will of the seven true gods!"

Spread his hands, Zhou Mo said, which made Rui Wen's doubts slightly dispelled.

"You're right, the will of the gods cannot be violated!"

In the Dukedom of Barot, in the annex of the Barot family, Mrs. Van Diser was carefully looking at all the business-related materials in the Barot Domain.

"Butler!"

The middle-aged fat butler who was waiting outside the door heard the call and appeared in front of his wife for the first time.

"Madame, please command. ”

"Is my big brother still raising cash?"

The middle-aged fat man nodded and said:

"The Grand Duke of Barot seems to be actively operating the matter of inheriting the title, and it costs a lot of money to deal with the nobles in the imperial capital, and there is a large cash gap, and it is reported that in order to determine the ownership of the title as soon as possible, the Grand Duke of Barot has even reached some transfer agreements with several large chambers of commerce in the direction of resources and veins. ”

Mrs. Van Diser frowned and said:

"He's not the Duke of Barot yet, who gave him this power?"

The middle-aged fat man laughed and said:

"Now the signature and seal of the Grand Duke of Barot do not have this kind of power, but when he inherits the position of the duke, the name he has signed and the seal he has stamped have this power! ”

Mrs. Van Dise fell silent, she was thinking, and the middle-aged fat butler waited quietly.

"Butler, my eldest brother is operating so actively, can His Majesty the Imperial Capital take this kind of pressure down?"

The butler is an old man who has been on the battlefield with Duke Van Diese, and has a deep understanding of the authority of His Majesty Platinum.

"Madam, you don't have to worry about the imperial capital, Her Majesty Platinum can directly exert influence on Her Majesty the Empress, and Her Majesty the Empress will definitely not have a stalemate with Her Majesty Platinum over the succession of a duke's title. ”

Mrs. Van Diser raised her eyebrows and said questioningly:

"Even with the strong support of the aristocratic department, or even the secret agitation of the entire aristocratic circle of the imperial capital?"

The butler still kept a smile and said:

"As long as the eldest prince can't ask the Divine Sea God to speak for him, then there is no pressure that His Majesty Platinum can't resist!"

Mrs. Van Disey took a deep breath, nodded and said:

"That's fine, if there is no one to follow the pressure from the imperial capital, it will be useless for us to act on our side. ”

The middle-aged fat man's white face smiled at a big bun:

"Madam, don't worry, this is a big deal for us, but for His Majesty Platinum, this kind of thing can only be solved by his casual words, and the heads of the twenty-six nobles along the way have not been shaken by His Majesty Platinum, but have made it more and more honorable?"

"In that case, then draw cash from the family and go all out to buy these goods in the Dukedom of Barot, there is no upper limit!"

Taking a catalogue from his wife's hand, the housekeeper glanced at it and said:

"Madam, these are all common items of aristocratic families, and several of them can only be used by wealthy duke families, if you want to buy these things, the purchase price in our own territory is two percent lower!"

The catalogue is full of fine meats, fruits, wines, and some luxury items that are practical for the aristocracy.

"If you want to buy it, you can buy it, and raise the price of these things in the Dukedom of Barot until I am satisfied!"

Mrs. Van Diesse did not explain the reason, just a strong order.

The housekeeper was not angry, bowed slightly and said:

"Yes, ma'am, I'll go down and arrange it at once. ”

After the butler went down, Madame Barot took a noble maiden by the hand and walked out of the inner room.

"Your eldest brother has been enjoying it since he was a child, and he has not lived a hard day, if he finds out, in a few days, he will not be able to afford to eat pearl rice, I really want to see what he looked like at that time. ”

Mrs. Barot smiled and pulled the girl to sit beside Mrs. Van Diese.

The girl glanced at her eldest sister and lowered her head a little embarrassed.

"What are you afraid of, can your eldest sister still eat you?" Mrs. Barot patted her second daughter's hand.

Mrs. Van Diser did not want to pay attention to her mother and sister, neither of whom made her feel at ease, and forced herself to concentrate all her attention on the materials in hand.

"I am not surprised at all, after my father's death, all the forces that can intervene have reached out!" a sneer appeared on the corner of her mouth, and Mrs. Van Dyse threw the book on the table and picked up the next one herself.

"Butler!"

No sooner had than she had read two pages, Mrs. Van Dise exclaimed again.

The butler had already left the courtyard at this time to arrange the acquisition, so naturally he would not come in, but Mrs. Van Diesse continued to call twice as if she had forgotten about it.

The son of the middle-aged fat man, the black iron knight of Lady Van Dyse, walked in from outside the courtyard.

"Madam, the butler went out of the courtyard and said that he had gone to carry out your orders. ”

Glancing at the butler's son, Mrs. Van Diese said:

"I know, since your father is not here, you can handle this matter!"

The young Black Iron Knight panicked when he heard this, he had been practicing the Life Evolution Method under his father's arrangement since he was a child, and he never cared about the worldly sundries, so he could not frown when he went into battle to kill the enemy, but let him handle these business-related matters, he didn't have the slightest confidence.

But there were still outsiders at the moment, and the young knight naturally knew that he could not disgrace his wife, so he knelt down on one knee and said:

"Yes, Madame, please. ”

Mrs. Van Diese commanded:

"Inform the family, the resource minerals on the list will be transported to the Barot territory as quickly as possible, and the price of the minerals of the Barot family will be one percent, and they will be sold without restrictions!"

The meaning was clear and clear, which made the knight's son of the butler breathe a sigh of relief, it was just a summons, and his father naturally had to do the rest of the matter.

"Yes, ma'am, I'll send a message to the family at once!"

With that, he respectfully took the slip from Mrs. Van Dyse's hand, and left the room.

"Daughter, what do you want to do? I can understand the will of your eldest brother from the aspect of life and property, this is indeed a clever trick, as long as he panics, he will not be able to catch his mistakes. ”

"But what are you doing to lower the price of resources and minerals in Barot's territory? This will make the Barot family break their bones!"

Mrs. Barot said dissatisfied.

Mrs. Van Diese glanced at her mother and said:

"Mother, when you moved out of the family estate with your younger siblings, did the knights of the family and the other nobles in the Barot realm say a word for you?"

"You've been living here for a short time, have any of those people come to visit?"

Mrs. Barot frowned, she somewhat understood what her own daughter meant.

"You're trying to cut meat from those little nobles and fill the Barot family?"

Mrs. Van Diesse sneered and said:

"Isn't that too cheap for them? This year, there is a big drought in the territory, and the price of grain has skyrocketed, and when there are no crops and no harvest next year, the price of grain will be raised to the sky, and at that time, I will let only the Barot family be a nobleman in the Barot territory!"

Mrs. Van Dyser looked at her mother with cold eyes.

"Only in this way can the Barot family, which has gathered the wealth of the entire territory, gather the power of the entire Barot territory, and in this way, can the glory of the Barot family being cut by His Majesty Platinum be restored!"

Taking a deep breath, Lady Barot looked at her eldest daughter with a little fear in her heart.

"What are you going to do?"

Mrs. Van Dise laughed.

"It's very simple, smash the inherent economic system in the entire Duke of Barot's domain, bankrupt all the nobles, and want to continue to maintain the dignity of the nobles, when the resource minerals cannot be sold at a price, selling the grain reserves is their only choice!"

"I would buy all the food at a high price, but I couldn't get it. When the famine comes, these little nobles, if they don't want to be torn apart by the mob and starve to death, they can only obediently listen to my arrangement!"

"I will buy their most precious thing with grain, their noble fiefdom!"

Mrs. Van Disey briefly talked about her plan, and Mrs. Barot was already in a bad cold, and she could imagine what it would be like in Balot's territory when the famine broke out in the territory, but all the grain was pressed by her daughter in the warehouse, and not sold to the outside.

Unlike the small number of displaced people this year, the entire territory of Barot Territory is bound to be starving!

"Don't worry, my mother, when the time comes, the Barot family will expand their army and recruit those civilians who have no food to eat into our army, so that they can eat military rations!"

"In this way, I don't think the Barot family will appear, under the platinum banner, the army will not dare to take the army, we will have our own army belonging to the Barot family, only loyal to the army of the Barot family!"

Mrs. Van Diese's words completely silenced her mother and sister.

"Daughter, I've hurt you!" In the end, Mrs. Barot only said this one sentence that made Mrs. Van Disse baffled, how could it be that she was bitter.

But she didn't know that when Mrs. Barot looked at home, the well-behaved, intelligent and kind daughter, who had only been married to the Van Dyse family for a few years, had become so aggressive, cruel and skillful, and she didn't know how many of her own daughters had suffered and had no choice but to grow up.

But she didn't know that since her daughter married into the Van Dyse family, although she had suffered a little in the early days, it was also because the Van Dyse family was not good at economics and had extremely limited material conditions.

Otherwise, it's just a matter of going back to his mother's house, so why would Duke Van Diesel let his family's butler accompany him?

"Someone!" said Mrs. Van Diser at this moment, and a flash of inspiration flashed in her mind.

At the first moment, two maids of the Van Diesse family entered the room.

"It's not for you to let a man who can do things outside come in!"

The two maids glanced at each other, and when they came to the gate of the small courtyard, they saw Soth guarding the door alone.

"Knight, Madame summons!"

Soth was stunned, what is the situation, he is a mercenary who pretends to be a faΓ§ade, what do you ask him to do at this time?

But he obediently followed.

"Is that you?" Mrs. Van Dise frowned when she saw that it was Soss, and then remembered that the butler father and son had been sent out by her.

"Is there anything I want, ma'am?" said Soth, trying to make himself as respectful as he could.

"It's you, let me ask you, do you know much about the underworld?"

Soth was stunned for a moment, and then said hesitantly:

"Madame has any orders, if you can do it, your subordinates will do it immediately!"

Mrs. Van Dyse's eyes rolled and she said:

"I want you to put out a message in the underworld, can you do it?"

Soth breathed a sigh of relief, nodded and said:

"It's easy, as long as Madame lets her subordinates go around the city. ”

Mrs. Van Dise nodded, and then commanded:

"You go and release the news, and it will be said that those people of the Redemption Society who are making trouble in Critical City have lurked in the territory of Barot's territory!"

Hearing this order, Soth almost cursed, didn't he let him find his own death?

"Also, let's just say that those people of the Redemption Society have obtained the secret of the False God of Light from the Dawning Blade that Her Majesty Platinum presented to Her Majesty the Empress!"

As soon as he said this, Soth was eager to open Mrs. Van Dyse's head to see if this woman had the legendary gift of prophecy, and that he had indeed obtained the secret of the Blade of Dawn.

He took a deep breath, as if shocked by such an order, but Soth bowed his head and said:

"I understand Madam, if there are no other orders, my subordinates will do it immediately! It's just that once this news is released, I am afraid that it will be known to the Holy See, the Principality of Platinum, and even the intelligence organization of the Empire as soon as possible!"

"In the underground world, there is no shortage of intelligence dealers, they do anyone's business!"

"Take the initiative to sell the news to the official organization, earn wealth, and make them do what they love to do!"

Soth felt that he should make some efforts to dispel this lady's thoughts, he didn't want to stay in a territory filled with papaladins and agents of the Principality of Platinum!
