Chapter 164: Acquisition of Shenlin Town (Part II)

[Fought with the machine for hours.] I still can't do it.,Brothers, if you are proficient in computers.,Guide me on Q tomorrow.,I can't save what I've written.,I really don't know what to do]

"Baron......" Salin shouted, the baron was a little confused, the highest-level mage he had ever seen was a three-pole mage, and that was what a relatively large adventuring party had seen when they were about to enter the swamp of chaos from Deep Forest Town. Now in front of him there were two fifth-level magicians, the baron's face was swollen and red, and he was rude and did not answer Salin's greeting.

"Piac, don't you know me?" said Aini, seeing that the baron was too nervous. Otherwise, the baron would not have answered anything Salin asked, and who knows if Salin would be really angry. Now Salin is also a big man, the most important magician in the Bitterwater County, and he also has the background of Sleeper Island.

"It's Master Aini!" Baron Pijac saw Aini and vaguely recognized the fifth-level magician in front of him. When Ani was in the town, Pijac took good care of him, as it was a lineage of the Earl's family. Now his heart is like a gloomy rainy day when he suddenly sees the sun, and it suddenly warms up.

Seeing the look on the baron's face, Salin snorted softly. Pijak suddenly wilted again. These two fifth-level mages seem to be the dark-haired ones in charge.

"Master Mage...... What do you have to tell me when you come to me?" Pijak was as respectful as he could, he was the most senior nobleman in the area, and he felt very awkward when he spoke like this for the first time in Deep Forest Town.

"I didn't look for you, you came to me. Salin thought funny, was he that terrible?

Pijak was a little dazed, and after thinking about it carefully, it was true that Salin did not come to him, but he was afraid that something would happen, so he hurriedly took the initiative to greet him. His eyes were on the gift box on the table, but the magician didn't open his gift box at all, the gold-encrusted box didn't even put it in the magician's eyes, and he didn't even bother to look at what was inside.

"So, Master Mage, why did you come to Deep Forest Town?" asked Pijak boldly.

Salin smiled, organizing the language in his mind. The more he did not speak, the more frightened Baron Pijac became. Salin didn't even think to scare him, it was his own heart that was empty.

"Baron, do you know the Bitter Water Commandery?"

"Yes, yes. King Rexshire, I admire. ”

Salin looked at Piak's bulging belly and thought, Rex is something you can admire too, but he doesn't want to dwell on these details. So he followed Baron Piac's words and asked, "Baron, since you admire the prince very much, why don't you follow her in the future?"

"Follow...... The prince of the county?" Piak's face turned very bright, and the fear of being killed disappeared, and Pijac began to suffer from gains and losses. Although there is no future for following the Grand Duke of Phoenix, there is no need to work hard. Rex's Bitter Water Prefecture is said to be surrounded by the forces of Holy Rock City, and it is not very easy. Originally, he was an insignificant little nobleman, and it was difficult for him to get in touch with the intrigues of the upper echelons, but now there was a question suddenly in front of him, and Baron Pijac did not know how to answer it.

This is a request from a fifth-level magician, and this magician also brought more than a hundred powerful swordsmen, each of whom plays the role of a legendary skeleton warhorse. This kind of power may not be anything in Qin Yin's hinterland, but in this border town, it is enough to destroy his baron's mansion more than a dozen times.

Also, does this magician really want to buy him for the King of Rex, or does he want to directly annex Shenlin Town? If it is the latter, even if he agrees, he will have a hard time in the future. And once you agree, you can't regret it in the future, and Archduke Phoenix won't make decisions for yourself.

"Master Mage. I don't quite understand ......"

"Baron, then I'll be blunt. I want your deep forest town, and Aini said that you are not a bad person, so I will leave you a way out. You make a price, if it's too high, I'll go directly to the Grand Duke of Phoenix, if it's appropriate, then you'll be the King of Rexshire from now on. ”

Salin didn't want to talk nonsense with Piak, this deep forest town is not big, more than a dozen streets before and after, if it is not near the Chaos Swamp, this town will not often have adventurers and mercenaries, Pijak is at most a second-class baron. Salin wanted Deep Forest Town in the long run, and here through the Swamp of Chaos was a secret passage into Skocina. That secret passage was wide enough to accommodate a large number of soldiers to pass through, and when the flames of war burned to the northwest of Qin Yin in the future, troops could be sent from Shenlin Town to go around the enemy's flank and rear.

As long as you subdue the Three Kings of the Undead, you will have enough skeleton war horses, and it will be much easier to travel thousands of miles a day and cross the chaotic swamp. The only trouble in the past was that there were powerful magical beasts in the Swamp of Chaos, and in order to pass through, there must be a magician. Now that the problem of the Three Kings is solved, this chaotic swamp is no longer an insurmountable obstacle.

"Master Mage, this Deep Forest Town was left to me by my father......" Pijak saw that Saleen really didn't want to kill him, so he had some bargaining meaning.

"Baron, I understand very well what land means to the nobility. You also want to have a fief to pass on to your son, right?"

Baron Pijac suddenly stopped talking. Saleen is not a good talker. The implication is that if you die, you have nothing left for future generations. If I kill even your son, to whom will you pass on the title?

"But Holy Rock?" Pijak really had a hard time choosing, he couldn't afford to mess with Saleen, but if he followed Rex, the Holy Rock City House of Commons might have to reclaim his title.

"The prince has the right to divide a baron, what are you worried about. ”

Pijak's face became more and more ugly, and he moved his family to Kushui County, where the grass did not grow.

"Baron, how much land do you have here?" Salin didn't care if Piak agreed, he wanted to occupy this place, and he didn't have time to build it in the future when the situation was tense. The Holy See already has five or six Blood Knights, and now I haven't heard that Holy Rock City has successfully created war puppets, and when it comes to field battles, this Blood Knights are not afraid of anything except magicians.

Although Qin Yin had many magicians, it was impossible for him to form a pure magic corps to fight against the Blood Knights. If he did that, a single battle would consume more than half of Qin Yin's treasury.

Baron Piac's face twitched violently, and it was easy to answer when asked, but he was a great magician, and was said to be able to detect lies. He said in a mosquito-like voice: "Master Hui, I have sixty miles of land. ”

"Oh, that's too much beyond the laws of the Empire. Baron. You're not a little daring. Salin said with a smile, and he had a bottom in his heart. When Pijac speaks of sixty li, he means that his land is roughly sixty li long, and the width must be more than one li, and even if it is exactly one li, it is much more than the empire allows.

Qin forbade nobles to annex land, a first-class baron, and the law only allowed ten square miles of land. The Grand Duke of Phoenix indulged the nobility of the principality to cause so much to happen beyond the scale allowed by the Empire. Now Piak's handle is in his own hands, Deep Forest Town, he can't sell it if he wants to.

Anyone else would have known about it. Considering the power of the Phoenix family and the entire principality nobles, they will not go to Holy Rock City to report it. But he is a person from the Bitter Water County, so he is not afraid of these soft eggs in Phoenix.

Pijac stood there with difficulty, tempting to lie on the ground and beg for Saleen's forgiveness, but his legs were too stiff to bend.

"Baron, since you like land so much, how about I call the shots and let the county king give you double the land you have now as compensation?"

"Don't dare, don't dare!" Pijac shook his head. The reason why he was willing to give up Shenlin Town was because he had his own land, and now that the land was in trouble, Salin said that if he wanted to give him double the land, it would be equivalent to the fief of a first-class earl. Even if it is placed in the Tangulas Empire, this kind of thing cannot be put on the table.

"Don't worry, the county is reclaiming land in the north, and soon there will be new cities to build well, and we will also need more nobles to support us at that time, you are the first to surrender, and it is not too much to give you some benefits. If you do a good job, your son may become a viscount. Saleen almost frightened Pijak and began throwing the bait.

The power of the county king is very great, even exceeding that of the Grand Duke of Phoenix. It is okay to reward the earl, and it is not difficult to make Piac's son a viscount. As Saleen said, the earliest defectors will always get some benefits that others do not have.

Besides, there are fifteen titles in the empire, and the third-class viscount is also a low-level nobleman, and Salin can make decisions about his affairs, and Rex will not be stingy with such a title.

Rex and Saleen's original intention was to take advantage of the absence of the Grand Duke of Phoenix to win over and attack the nobles of the Duchy of Phoenix, Baron Pijak was the first, and Saleen just didn't expect things to be so easy.

"Piac, you can come down. If you don't say yes now, you won't have a chance in the future. Ani was bewitching Baron Pijac. Although he came from a large family, it was the first time he had seen someone use power to force a nobleman to submit. The Clyde family is much more gentle. Always use profit to yin* others, not violence.

"Master Aini, I'm ...... I promise......" Pijac shuddered, looking into Sarin's blue, pure eyes.

Salin smiled and said, "That's good, I will repair in Shenlin Town for three days, you go and get all the land deeds, and I will sign the contract with you." If I can't give you a corresponding title and a multiplier of land, these title deeds are still yours. ”

Baron Pijac breathed a sigh of relief, he wouldn't be lying to him when he heard Salen say that. I have never heard of the great magician's deception, and since there is a contract to sign, at least in terms of land and title, he will not suffer too much loss. Northern...... Is there any land in the north of Phoenix that is suitable for farming?

Sending Baron Piac back, Salin and Ani looked at each other and laughed. After all, the two of them were still young, and they had just been embarrassed by Piac's embarrassment, and they wanted to laugh but couldn't hold back. For Saleen, Baron Pijac's toughness is the most troublesome thing. It was impossible for him to kill Pijak directly here, after all, Rex's foundation was still in Kushui County, and even if the new city was built, it would not be able to replace the status of Kushui County. It wasn't too far from Holy Rock City, it really annoyed the House of Commons, and Rex couldn't control what would happen.
