Chapter 198: Changes in the Situation (2)

The snow was falling, and the fine snowflakes smashed on the face in the cold wind, making people feel a piercing pain.

The situation in the northwest is particularly strange in this snowstorm. Erdos, the largest city in the entire northwest, is like a giant tree that has completely decayed, and in such a snowstorm, the rotten nature of Erdos beneath its shiny surface is fully revealed.

Many low-level civilians, like poor ghosts with wealth, sit on the incomparably valuable land of Erdos, but watch the days go by with hungry eyes.

It seems that the news of the capture of White Horse City has not yet spread in Erdos.

The entire Erdos populace was still struggling to survive in starvation, and the nobles were chatting and laughing freely in the palatial banquet with scarlet wine glasses, and the dazzling decorations of the whole banquet were full of dreams, and the snacks and feasts piled up on the table were unimaginable to the hungry and red-eyed civilians outside.

I don't know where it began, Count Andy ordered the collection of all the grain on the surface of the entire northwest, and these grains were transported to the earl's castle in batches, and the traces of countless ruts are still clear.

The nobles were drunk and dreamed of death, as if they were blocked from all perception of the people at the bottom. The people at the bottom are starving, and the tense atmosphere is still fermenting, and many people are secretly preparing to actively deal with the "big event" that is about to break out.

In the secret room.

Andy Adams was dressed in a neat, black gown with a gold trim, and the Adams family emblem full of time and glory was engraved on his chest, and he waited quietly like a general.

The linen-robed man quietly appeared beside him and whispered, "Everything is ready." ”

Andy nodded slightly, a complicated look appeared on his tired face, he clenched his hands hard, took a deep breath, and his deep eyes seemed to see the whole of Erdos across the space.

Glancing at Erdos nostalgically, a hint of determination appeared on Andy's face, and he said intently, "Let's go!"

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

In such bad weather, a low-key carriage set off from Erdos was escorted by a team and finally disappeared into the snow.

Wright is one of the old aristocracy of Erdos.

His ancestors were the knights of the Addams family, and the Ironthorn Flower was their family's crest, a flower unique to the West, and they had a tenacious vitality, although they were not as colorful as those delicate flowers when they bloomed, but they could bloom for a while even in the worst weather.

Over the years, the former knight has become the lord of the present.

Stepping into the aristocracy did not make the Ironthorn family more prosperous, the game circle of the aristocracy was dirty and full of unseen struggles, Wright's ancestors laid down their weapons and put on gorgeous robes, and it was clear that their family had no political genes.

So many years.

Wright's family has not been very happy, until this time, he is just the administrative officer of the Erdos warehouse, to put it mildly, the administrative officer, to put it bluntly, the warehouse supervisor of the entire Erdos.

I have to say that it is sad that the warrior who once went on the horse to kill the enemy has become a 9-to-5 officer, and the spirit of the iron thorn flower has completely withered.

Winter has arrived.

However, this is only for the commoners at the bottom, for the aristocratic class like Wright, they can still sing and sing night and night, as long as there is grain in the earl's warehouse, as long as the largest granary in the entire northwest is still there, they can live freely in this boring winter.

"Humph......"

Humming a ditty that was popular at banquets, Wright walked briskly with his hands behind his back to his office, the office building of the Count of Erdos's warehouse.

The snow had been falling, and if it weren't for the overcastness, it would have been close to noon.

However, nothing matters.

Wright is a nobleman, he is a nobleman with a holy bloodline, he is born with privileges, what is it to be late, as long as the Iron Thorn family is still loyal to the earl, he can live in Erdos.

Recalling the salon held last night at the mansion at 22 White Rock Street, Wright's face lifted a smile that all men would know, although the aristocratic ladies were not as skilled as some of the tavern ladies, but the tavern girls and some wandering dancers were nothing, they were just lowly commoners.

In Wright's eyes, they were merely objects of amusement, and the ladies in the aristocratic salons, even though their bodies were so bloated, were nobles! Sacred nobles, their bodily fluids contained an indescribable sense of sacredness. Spending a good night with a noble lady is the kind of conversation that can be used in aristocratic circles.

Pastime is nothing more than a physical need, while communication is a symbol of aristocratic decency.

Stepping into the familiar office building, the dedicated apprentices and supervisors who should have appeared in Wright's eyes were now standing in the hallway with their heads bowed and whispering, everyone's face full of uneasy trepidation.

"Huh, what's going on?"

Wright obviously didn't realize the seriousness of the problem, he was a nobleman, and nothing would threaten his life, so he asked with a smile.

He frowned and looked at the supervisors who used to bow their eyebrows to him every day, and he was very dissatisfied, he was a nobleman, and these flattering guys actually ignored his words today.

"Could it be some guy who doesn't have long eyes, and he parachuted here?"

Wright thought to himself.

He suspected that it was an enemy of which family, and he didn't know what he had taken to parachute here to become an official, after all, the storekeeper was a fat man, and sometimes the things he had in his hands could often leak a little into his pocket.

Even in some peacetime, merchants would secretly transfer the goods in the warehouse, and this transfer often brought great benefits to Wright.

"I'm good friends with Baron Alsop! I'm going to see which family is not long-sighted, and dares to stretch out their hands here!"

The more he thought about it, the more certain Wright became, anger began to appear on his face, such a sudden means in aristocratic circles was almost a declaration of war with a family, and the angry Wright walked all the way to the highest office in the office building.

When he walked to the office that was supposed to belong to him, and looked at the two rows of soldiers standing in the hallway, he began to feel that something was wrong.

"This is someone from the City Guard?"

After seeing the emblems of the two teams of soldiers clearly, Wright began to wonder more and more, the Erdos City Guard only listened to the movements of a few big people, including the Earl's Court, and now they appeared here.

"Could it be that someone from the Earl's Court has reached out?"

Speculating to himself, Wright began to wonder what price Baron Alsop should pay to settle the matter.

Baron Alsop, his sister is the wife of Hart Helt, who is known as the "hyena of the West", the city magistrate of Erdos, and the count's henchmen are behind him, and Wright is getting more and more confident.
