After settling the group, Hudson wandered back to his own backyard. The kingdom's control of the essence of life has always been very strict.

For the entire aristocratic group, this restriction was very necessary. If the number of knights is not controlled, the competition within the nobility will increase several times.

If a group of guys who have mastered force can't find a job, the consequences can be imagined.

Each aristocratic family's life essence quota is limited, which is undoubtedly very disadvantageous to a prosperous family.

Taking the Coslow family as an example, if the resources are sufficient, the number of knights born in each generation may increase several times.

The reality is cruel, except for those who have a foundation and can obtain the essence of life, most of the children of the family are forced to withdraw from the noble circle and become free people.

Caring for each other is also limited to raising these people to adulthood. More resources, we really can't get them.

Many of the freemen in the big cities were descendants of the nobility. It's just that for various reasons, it finally declined.

Those who came over this time should be more powerful from close relatives. At the very least, they were given basic training in knighthood, and some cultural knowledge was imparted.

If the relationship is a little farther away, then it is really just a mouthful of food. Don't say it's knightly training, and you can't even teach cultural knowledge.

It's not that everyone is ruthless, but the more you know, the more troubles you have.

The descendants can't take care of it, who can take care of distant relatives?

Except for a few nobles who are thin, the life essence has overflowed. Most aristocrats don't want to send this thing out, even if they can't use it at home, and relatives still need children.

The Coslow family is relatives of this need. Baron Redman spends a lot of money every year and maintains relationships, and there is no shortage of reasons for this.

To buy the essence of life, you need not only money, but also human favors.

Now Hudson's most tricky thing is human affection, as the spokesman for the interests of the local aristocracy, he must pay attention to the appearance.

The most important thing is that you can't pull your face.

"Tom, send a message to Baron Kate and ask him to come over for a while."

According to the kingdom's decree, in addition to the nobles' own allocation, they can also be exchanged for military exploits.

Hudson's exploits have all become fiefdoms, and naturally there is no way to exchange them for life liquid. But there is a group in the kingdom that has never lacked military exploits.

The ancestors of the Coslow family came from northern Xinjiang, but unfortunately there were no connections left, and many enemies were left.

Even if the nobles of Northern Xinjiang want to exchange for the essence of life, they must first consider the reaction of the enemies of the Coslow family.

Of course, after so many years of no reaction, the Coslow family is most likely forgotten by the Lockonard family.

For the five powerful families in the Northland, whose enemies are all over the kingdom, the Coslow family, who has not even been able to maintain the dignity of the middle nobles, is really difficult to keep people thinking about.

The big people can not worry, but the little people can't care. In the Northland, after all, it depends on the faces of the five giants.

There are exceptions to everything. Not daring to trade on the surface does not mean that no one dares to trade in secret.

Hudson didn't even dare to smuggle weapons on a large scale, and Hudson didn't think that the mysterious organization behind Kate would be afraid to trade life liquid.

No matter how bold the five giants of the Northland are, there is one thing they will definitely not do, and that is to smuggle ordnance to the orcs.

They were even at the vanguard of the arms trade, prohibiting their nobles from smuggling all iron products to the Orc Empire.

It has nothing to do with patriotism or not, it is purely that once the orcs invade, they will be the first wave of targets.

Selling the rope that hangs oneself, only the capitalists can do it, and the old aristocrats are not so short-sighted.

……

Maple leaf collar.

Ever since he experienced a wave of social beatings, Baron Kate has become extremely sensitive, looking at everyone as a traitor.

The consequence of a serious lack of trust is that small teams are scared. Except for Knight Holman who was able to speak a few words, no one else was trusted.

The reason is very simple, only Knight Holman had raised objections before stepping on the pit. In the process of implementation, he did not forget to remind him to pay attention to risk control.

I can't say anything about being calculated and being forced to join the July Meeting. I didn't even dare to investigate the traitors. All the grievances, Kate can only hold in her stomach.

"Come on, Kate, since the last time you brought it back from the mountains, your mood has been very wrong.

The road of life is destined to be full of ups and downs, and only by learning to endure the momentary anger can we go further.

Even if those slave traders have wronged you, you have to endure it now. This is the price of doing something wrong.

Baron Hudson just gave you a post, maybe you can go out for a walk and soothe your mood. ”

Holman tried to persuade.

This time he accompanied his nephew to the south, in addition to the subsidies given by the family, the most important thing is that he is optimistic that Kate will become a big deal.

It's a pity that the plan hasn't changed quickly, Kate's ability to come is really not bad, but the opponents she faces are more perverted than the other.

First of all, there was a competition among the nobles of the Northlands, and Kate, who was not bad in all aspects, lost to Baron Sith, who had a good father.

This one alone was killed in seconds, and although Kate tried to struggle a few times, nothing could change in the end.

It was even more unfortunate that he became neighbors with Hudson. The poor geographical location made the Maple Leaf Collar have to look at the face of the next-door neighbor.

"I see, Uncle Holman."

Kate said calmly.

Past experience had taught him that it would not be good for Hudson to ask him out. If it was before, he would have analyzed it well.

Now, there's no need for that. If he does not get rid of the control of the July Society, he is destined to have no future in life.

No matter how well the territory is managed, once the identity is put on the gang, it is inevitable that it will be cold.

"Tear down the current order and reshape the new world."

It's okay to fool the second middle school teenager, and those who have a little bit of insight know that with the strength of the July Club, there is no hope at all.

Even if the orcs invade the south, at most, they will be surprised and destroy the five giants in northern Xinjiang. If you want to go further, you have to ask whether the countries of mankind are willing to agree.

As a child of a northern nobleman, Kate didn't want that to happen.

There are no eggs under the nest.

The five wealthy families in the Northland are unlucky, and the small and medium-sized nobles who depend on their existence will only die faster.

He jumped out, but the family foundation was still in northern Xinjiang, and there was no time to transfer.

……

"You want me to help you get rid of the July Society?"

Hudson asked incredulously.

He had only heard of the name of this organization, but he did not know anything about the specifics.

Compared to the large and small chaotic party organizations in the kingdom, July will be regarded as a clear stream.

Except for the somewhat frightening slogans, the biggest characteristic of not engaging in cult sacrifices, not causing trouble to one party, and not launching armed rebellions is mysterious.

If Kate hadn't spoken out herself, Hudson wouldn't have believed that the slave traders were all members of the July Society.

What surprised Hudson the most was that the July Meeting not only had its own political program, but also had a clear goal of rebellion, an organizational system, and even a blueprint for the future political system.

Regardless of whether these things are reliable or not, this organizational structure alone surpasses countless rebel organizations.

At one point, Hudson wondered if there were any peers who had crossed over, and his life was not satisfactory, so he came up with such a mysterious organization.

It's not right when you think about it.

The July Conference has been shouting slogans for hundreds of years, and it has never been launched, so isn't that putting people in coffins?

"Yes!"

Baron Kate replied in the affirmative.

If there was a better option, he wouldn't have talked to Hudson about it.

How can it involve a mysterious organization like the July Society, even the closest people around him may betray him.

Hudson was the exception.

Anyway, Hudson was also present that day, and he was half in the know. There is also a business relationship with the July Club, and it is difficult to explain clearly when the news is poked out.

Reaching out and rubbing his forehead, Hudson didn't know whether to congratulate himself on being cautious or scolding himself for not being greedy.

You must have known that it was the July Club that bought weapons, and he would not do anything about this deal.

Fortunately, there was a steady wave that day, and there was no greed for huge profits to eat alone. Otherwise, once this thunder explodes in the future, he will have to be crushed.

Now that all the major arms dealers in the kingdom are involved, it has become a good thing.

The law does not blame the public, no matter how powerful the thunder explosion is, there are a large group of people who share the risk. There is a high probability that no one will continue to delve into this issue.

"Kate is here for Baron, I just want to exchange for some life essence, and the risk is not at the same level at all compared to helping you get rid of the July Society.

This business, even if you don't want to do it, there will be other northern nobles to do it.

Besides, why do you think I'm capable of helping you with this?

Or do you think the July Club is so weak that a little baron like me can influence their decision-making? ”

Hudson said angrily.

If you are in the Northland, if you come to the door to exchange the life essence like this, there is a high probability that you will be refused.

But this is a southeastern province, as long as you are careful, you can completely cover up the past by trading in secret.

The life essence is also not marked, who knows where the Coslow family got it?

The Loonard family, if they have the time to keep an eye on the Coslow family's every move, it is better to send someone over directly to destroy the door.

I didn't do this, so I naturally had something to take into account. Even the great nobles have to obey the order of the circle.

Even the five wealthy families in the north are just playing with knives to kill people, but they are not arrogant enough to personally lead people to destroy the nobles.

The mere use of a knife to kill people has brought them into disrepute. If you do it yourself, you don't want to mix in the aristocratic circle.

Spit on the stars, many times can also kill.

Unless you are not prepared to recruit talents from the outside world, you do not need to marry other nobles, you do not need to form an alliance with other nobles, you do not need to get the help of the kingdom, and you do not need the support of nobles in various places during wars......

Otherwise, you have to follow the rules of the game.

The risk is controllable, as long as it is not a nobleman who is attached to the Locknard family, if the profit is high enough, he will definitely dare to make this deal.

Hudson was ready, and if Kate didn't answer, he would go to a few other ambitious Northland nobles.

In an exchange of political interests, they helped the Coslow family obtain the essence of life, and the Coslow family took them into the local aristocratic circle.

This kind of buying and selling of each according to his needs, without worrying about no one doing it.

Having these guys act as middlemen is much better than the Coslow family finding it themselves.

"Baron Hudson, don't be angry. Since I dare to make such a request, there is naturally an equivalent exchange.

If Your Excellency just wants to exchange for a small amount of life essence, naturally some people will sell your face, and it is completely okay for me to fart.

However, the Coslow family is prosperous, not to mention a few copies of life essence, I am afraid that dozens or hundreds of copies may not be enough.

Although they are the same family, the current Coslow family is obviously more like an alliance of interests with blood as the hub.

The branches are not subordinate to each other, and no one can command anyone. Otherwise, dozens of veins will work together, and your Excellency will definitely walk more smoothly in the early stage than now.

The sons of the branch who have the inheritance, Your Excellency cannot afford to buy them now.

If you want to cultivate a family of knights, then you can only dig out the marginalized children of the distant branches.

According to the principle of equal exchange, in exchange for ten years of service for a life essence, the business will definitely not be lost.

With your means, you will definitely be able to recover most of them within ten years.

There is no action ahead, and that's because the veins haven't made up their minds to bet on you.

Now within the Coslow family, you have acquiesced in your actions, at least these branches of the Southeast Province are supported.

They may be reluctant to descend on their descendants, but those marginalized children who are not qualified to become knights in the first place are definitely as many as you can afford to recruit. ”

Listening to Kate's explanation, Hudson fell silent.

It was his plan to rein in the marginalized clansmen. Although engaging in a family-oriented entrepreneurial team is very unfavorable to the later development.

But under the existing rule system, he can only play like this.

In order not to cause trouble, even privately teaching officers some basic knowledge is a way to find excuses.

Even so, there is a lot of criticism from the outside world. To disseminate knowledge on a large scale would be to isolate oneself from the aristocracy.

In contrast, there is no such trouble as nurturing one's own family. No matter how declining the Yuanzhi people are, and how many generations have passed by blood, they are all members of the Coslow family, and they are also from noble backgrounds.

Since he is a child of a nobleman, he is his own person. The spread of knowledge remained within the aristocracy and did not spread to the common people.

No action has been taken, not because there is opposition from anyone in the family. In fact, as long as Hudson can come up with enough resources, everyone doesn't mind sending all the children from the far branch.

Without harming their own interests, they can enhance the strength of the family, how can the various veins oppose it?

The most important thing is that the resources in Hudson's hands are expensive, and the ordinary material consumption of daily study and training can barely be afforded, but there is really no way to cultivate resources.

Life essence is just a stepping stone, and the cultivation after becoming a knight is also indispensable for auxiliary resources.

Extravagant resources aside, magic potions that heal the wear and tear of the body during training are indispensable, right?

It's not about having money. In the case of a serious imbalance between supply and demand, if you want to buy enough auxiliary drugs, you also need connections.

For the minor aristocracy, these problems were not insurmountable. As long as you reduce the daily training time, you will definitely be able to carry it through the young age.

After the age of thirty or forty, the body begins to go downhill, and when it can't bear this pressure, it simply gives up training.

This is also the reason why there are few high-ranking knights among the minor nobles. It's not that everyone's talent is not good, but the family can't support it.

After all, family development should be considered holistically, not just individuals.

"Kate comes to Baron, you have said so much, in fact, it is all nonsense.

I do need a lot of Life Essence, and even if you can solve this problem, it doesn't mean that I can help you get out of the July Society.

I don't know anything about this mysterious organization. I guess you don't know much.

Just from the few words and rumors on the surface, we can boldly deduce that there are other forces behind the organization.

If it weren't for the slogans of the July Meeting, they would have even been able to walk on the stage in a bright light.

It's hard for me to compare such a well-behaved organization with a group of cults.

Once anything goes too far, there must be an inside story. With your ingenuity, you can guess a few points.

Since you're all trapped, don't think about getting out so easily. Unless you can afford to let the top nobles of the kingdom come forward and endorse you!

If you can't do this, then live in peace, as if nothing happened.

Anyway, the name of the July Society has been resounding in the kingdom for more than a hundred years, and there are very few members who have revealed their membership. As long as it's not too unlucky, it's not so easy for you to run into it.

I've said everything I can, and now it's time to talk about the deal between us. Is there any way you can help me get enough life distiller? ”

Hudson said indifferently.

From the solemn look, it can be seen that it is a deep fear of the July Society.

Who made Hudson's analysis a little more astonishing?

Even he himself found it hard to believe. But reason tells him that many incredible analyses are often close to the truth.

The content involved was so sensitive that Hudson would not have dared to draw conclusions until he was completely sure.

For the sake of safety, he simply said it ambiguously and let Kate come to Baron to guess for herself.

"That's it!

That's it for today.

The amount of life essence you need is too large, and no matter which channel you redeem it from, it will be difficult to meet your needs.

The best way to solve this problem is to make your own formulation.

In the kingdom on the surface, only the royal family has mastered the secret method of making life essence, but in fact, none of the major nobles have lacked life essence.

Even some powerful middle nobles rarely heard of the lack of life essence. Every time you need to buy the essence of life, it happens to be a small noble, and occasionally you can see the figure of a middle nobleman.

I think Baron Hudson understands, what is the reason for this?"

Hearing Kate's words, Hudson couldn't help but roll his eyes directly. He is not a fool, so he naturally knows the reason behind it.

If the production process of life essence is really only in the hands of the royal family as recorded in the history books, other big forces will also want to rise.

The production process, although it is not a bad street, but a group of nobles who are not short of knights have definitely achieved the freedom of life essence.

"Do you have the recipe for making the essence of life?"

Hudson asked, his voice trembling slightly.

It is almost impossible for this kind of strategic resource, which is tightly sealed by the big forces, to obtain it through formal channels.

If he can get it, he will definitely not let it go. I was in a hurry, so I took the bear out in the middle of the night to fight the stuffy stick, and I had to grab something too.
