Chapter Eighty-Four: Forced Buy
The children of the aristocracy surrounded Winnie and Paul and left, looking at their departing figures, Feng Xifan whispered to Leo about the change in Paul's face, and deduced that this person must be the kind of person with treacherous thoughts. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
At this time, Leo had lost interest in those superficial and arrogant noble children, and nodded casually to indicate that he knew. No matter if Paul or anyone else, as long as he doesn't provoke himself, he will toss them around, but if he dares to argue with himself, let him know why the peach blossoms are so red!
With a longing for the competitive competition on the third day of the harvest festival, Leo was full of hope that the blind guy would take the initiative to come over and enjoy himself.
However, to Leo's surprise, the blind guy soon came to the door on his own.
Outside Leo's mansion, the Cossack cavalrymen were scrubbing and grooming their companions. When a carriage passed by, it suddenly stopped next to the Cossack cavalrymen, and a middle-aged nobleman with a drunken face and two swollen eyes like a goldfish jumped out of the carriage, carefully examined the tall horses beside the Cossack cavalry, pointed to the Cossack cavalry and asked: "Which family are you from? I want these war horses, let your master make a price!"
The Cossack cavalrymen did not even shake off the swollen-eyed nobleman, and caressed their horses and played with them affectionately.
Seeing that no one was paying attention to him, the swollen-eyed nobleman shouted angrily, "Do you mean who I am, sir, I'm Baron Dewar, the treasurer of Silverstone City, why don't you hurry up and inform your landlord?"
The Treasurer of Silverstone is arguably the most important official after the Consuls and the City Guard, and has always been the object of flattery and admiration, which has also made Baron Dewar develop a habit of looking at everything since he took office. Unfortunately, this was completely useless for the Cossack cavalry, and no one could give them an order, except for the words of Leo.
After a shut-up at the Cossack cavalry, the swollen-eyed treasurer, Baron Duwar, angrily approached the Brontë family's steward, who was in charge of the manor's reception, with the covetousness of the horses and the anger at being ignored.
Although the steward knew that the cavalry were Baron Leo's subordinates, he was forced by the financial officer Baron Dewar to reveal Leo's information to Baron Dewar.
After knowing that Leo was only the new lord and the successor of the Cullen territory, Baron Nadua had no fear to find Leo's door directly.
"You're the hillbilly who took over Barony Cullen?Baron Leo, aren't you?!I'm Baron Dewar, the treasurer of Silverstone!I'll tell you, I've come to see your horses this time!" As soon as this Baron Dewar found Leo, he opened his mouth and closed his mouth to be a hillbilly, and he looked down on Leo very much, as if it was Leo's honor to be able to say a few words to Leo.
Leo didn't answer immediately, but frowned and looked at the manor steward who was following Baron Dewar, with an embarrassed face, the steward knew that Leo had a better personality, so he spread his hands behind Baron Dewar to show that he was really helpless, and made a gesture of praying for Leo's forgiveness.
Leo shook his head at the steward, and said to Baron Dewar with some distortion in his heart: "Baron Dewar, please pay attention to your politeness, and don't lose your noble demeanor. As for the horses you mentioned, they belong to my cavalry, and I'm sorry I didn't have any extra to sell to you!"
Seemingly a little surprised that Leo didn't buy it, Baron Nadewar pointed to his nose and asked, "Don't you understand? I'm the treasurer of Silverstone!"
Leo asked angrily and amusefully, "So what?"
Baron Dewar was ashamed and annoyed, thinking that he had been insulted by Leo, and he said angrily: "Hillbilly, tell you, obediently sacrifice those war horses, and I can forgive you for your disrespectful sin!"
Baron Dewar's words ripped off the fig leaf of aristocratic demeanor, almost a naked threat. At this moment, even the steward of the Brontë family behind him couldn't help but roll his eyes, this treasurer was really stupid, and he didn't know how he got to the position of treasurer of Silverstone.
However, the coercion of guests at Brontë Manor was enough to become a scandal. The steward hurriedly stepped forward to dissuade Baron Dewar, and did not hesitate to forcefully carry Viscount Brontë out before Baron Dewar finally realized that this time and place was not something he could do recklessly.
The old nobles of the Brontë family can be in Silverstone City and even the entire northern frontier, far from being able to provoke Baron Dewar, who became a treasurer by virtue of some nepotism, so Baron Dewar can only hold back his anger and leave in a huff. Of course, both the steward and Leo knew that he would definitely not give up on his laurels.
In this matter, the steward knows that he also has a certain responsibility, after all, it was he who leaked Leo's information to Baron Dewar, and if Leo suffered any harm during his visit, Viscount Brontë probably would not spare him. Therefore, the steward repeatedly apologized to Leo and promised to report this time to Viscount Brontë, hoping that Viscount Brontë would be able to suppress Baron Dewar so that he would not trouble Leo again.
The appearance of Baron Dewar once again refreshed Leo's impression of the imperial aristocracy, and decadence, arrogance, arrogance, and arrogance have become synonymous with the imperial aristocracy.
Now that I think about it, Leo somewhat understands what Grand Duke Wagner said at the beginning.
The Wagner Grand Guild raised troops with the power of the three provinces and wanted to overthrow the rule of the empire, not for its own glory and wealth and eternal merits, but to completely destroy the aristocratic system that exudes a stale atmosphere and sucks the blood of the empire and the people, so that the empire can be reborn in blood.
Grand Duke Wagner was not a traitor to the Empire, he loved it so much that he was willing to be accused of rebellion.
In a moment, Leo thought a lot, which made him a little confused, not knowing whether his previous act of breaking into the southern camp and capturing Grand Duke Wagner was right or wrong, and what kind of impact it would have on this empire.
However, Leo was not confused for too long, after all, those are the things that the upper echelons of the empire need to consider, he is a small imperial baron, and he is only at the bottom of the imperial aristocracy, so what qualifications does he have to change the situation of the entire empire.
"Alas, I hope Grand Duke Wagner doesn't hold a grudge against me!" Leo sighed. I didn't think at all that in the south, there was another Archduke William who hated him so much.
Adhering to the tough character of the Grand Duke of Wagner, William did not accept the persuasion of the Marquis of Griffins to threaten the life of the Grand Duke of Wagner, but gathered people with lofty ideals in the south to work together to completely overthrow the rotten Varu Empire.
