When Lin Qi and his party entered the door, several bald-necked turkeys with no hair on their necks happily rushed under their feet. Two black pigs with black heads and buttocks and white bodies staggered down the wall for a few steps, and then lay down happily.

More than a dozen little piglets stumbled up and stumbled on the belly of the big flower pig to compete for milk. The number of big flower pigs is not enough, and a few little piglets can't grab food, so they open their mouths angrily and bite their brothers and sisters' little tails.

The little piglets were in pain, they opened their mouths and bit indiscriminately, and the big pigs were suddenly bitten 'howling, howling, and jumping up with fat all over their bodies, and a group of little piglets suddenly scattered in the hall, and fled in all directions with a sharp cry.

Qiuli's face became more and more ugly, and he bowed respectfully to Lin Qi and saluted: "I'm very sorry, Your Excellency Lin Qi, the country house is simple, it's really a bit of a neglect of distinguished guests!" Qiuli's heart was dripping blood, and he was ready to clean up the few servants who only ate and didn't do anything, didn't he tell them to put these livestock in the shed and not let them sneak out?

Lin Qi waved his hand disappreciatively, looked at these lively animals with interest and smiled: "It's okay, it's okay, it's so lively, I can't see it on weekdays." Good, good!"

It's just a few turkeys and a bunch of pigs, and if you've been hanging out with an Abyss Bear, four centaurs, and a whole bunch of monsters for six years, you won't find it unbearable. At least the air here was much fresher than Lin Qi's residence in the Black Abyss Divine Prison, and there was no smell of the abyss demon bear unique to the handsome old lady.

Viscount Qiuli's face looked much better, he saluted Lin Qi, led the way, and led Lin Qi and the others to the front of the main mansion.

Yun is a three-story building made of granite mixed with bricks and wood, and it is obvious that the original builders wanted to make the building entirely out of granite, but the building was only halfway built, and it was replaced with a brick and wood structure, indicating that the financial resources were not enough. It's just that this building is still neatly built, and the overall structure is not damaged, giving people an unusually stable feeling.

A young woman in a long white dress stood in front of the main entrance, and when she saw Lin Qi walking over accompanied by Viscount Churi, she bowed lightly to Lin Qi and the others. This is the Viscount of Churi's wife, the lord of a small town more than ten miles away, the only daughter of an old knight. In other words, when the Viscountess's father died, the Viscount of Churi would inherit the territory of the town, thus expanding his own sphere of influence.

Although she was only from a low-ranking aristocratic family, the Viscountess had received a good education since she was a child, and judging from her manners, she was even more educated than Viscount Churi. Therefore, her appearance is more generous and decent, and her words and deeds are like a spring breeze on her face, but she does not feel abrupt, Lin Qi happily followed the etiquette of the nobles, gently held the small hand of the Viscountess, and gently gave her a kiss on the back of her hand.

"Maybe we'll have to bother a few more days, there's Mrs. Law. Lin Qi glared at Alda fiercely, signaling that he was not allowed to make trouble for himself here Viscountess was not his target of hunting, if he dared to do anything strange to the Viscountess, Lin Qi would not hesitate to kill him, and then build yì his father to give birth to a few more obedient sons as soon as possible.

Alda smiled reservedly, he understood the solemn warning in Lin Qi's eyes, so he stood aside obediently, except for occasionally glancing at Alita, he really didn't squint.

After a warm welcome, Lin Qi enjoyed a not luxurious, but unusually sumptuous dinner in the mansion of Viscount Churi. There's nothing too expensive and rare here, but the roast lamb is authentic, the roast turkey is pure, the little suckling pig is also popular, and with fresh river fish and a few freshly hunted birds, and plenty of delicious vegetables, this dinner is truly impeccable.

Not to mention the enthusiastic Viscountess of Churi, and two barrels of good wine from the cellar where the mansion was built.

This is a good wine left by Viscount Churi's great-grandfather, and it is also a military reward given by Grand Duke Lanyue to Viscount Churi's great-grandfather, the first master of this viscount a hundred years ago. The wine is one of the finest brandies from the Gallic Empire, and with a hundred years of cellaring, it has become a masterpiece that will delight the delight.

After the dinner party, Viscount Churi invited Lin Qi to his study.

Although it is only a small Viscount Mansion, although the sparrow is small, there are all kinds of supporting facilities in the Viscount's Mansion. Viscount Churi's study is full of all kinds of books, although it can be seen from the dust on these houhou books that few people read them, but this also means that Viscount Churi, a small aristocratic family, still has some heritage.

In addition to the books on the shelves that few people read, there was a huge sand table in the middle of the study, which aroused Lin Qi's interest, and he strode to this length and width of five meters

Next to the sand table on the left and right, his eyes are looking for the location of the viscount on it.

Seeing that Lin Qi was so interested in this sand table, Viscount Churi also walked up and proudly introduced the origin of the sand table.

"This is the military sand table that my great-grandfather rewarded me with at that time after his military exploits. My great-grandfather was just an ordinary commoner, but he joined the army of the Grand Duke, opened up territory for the Duchy, and defeated the army of the Silver Valley Kingdom twice in three border wars, so he was scraped into a hereditary viscount by the Grand Duke and got this territory.

Lin Qi nodded vigorously, and at the same time, according to the geographical knowledge taught by the old man in the Black Abyss Divine Prison, he verified them one by one on the sand table.

The Yun clan has surveyed almost the famous mountains and rivers of the entire Western Continent, and they will naturally not let go of this canyon passage that connects the two empires. The fourteen large and small forces of the Lanyue Principality and the Silver Ancient Kingdom were also mentioned in the lecture of the young man.

But the Viscount of Churi, the tiny and powerful of this kind of small forces, the old man is too lazy to explain. Now that he had confirmed the sand table, Lin Qi was pleasantly surprised to find that the Principality of Lanyue was originally in the middle of the valley, and the Viscount of Qiuli was located in the southernmost part of the Principality of Lanyue.

From the Viscount of Churi, one day's journey north is the capital of the Duchy of Arazuki, five days to the west is the Gallic Empire, and about six days to the east is the Caesar Empire. If you go south, through the lofty mountains of the Abynees, to the southwest is the holy mountain of the headquarters of the Church, and to the south and southeast, you can directly enter the territory of the Vyas Commercial Federation.

What is called a traffic artery, this is a traffic artery.

Lin Qi's finger was on a high hill near the Viscount of Chuli, this high hill is hundreds of meters high, if a regular war fortress is built on it, and an elite heavy cavalry is stationed on it, it can condescendingly overlook the entire Lanyue Principality and cut off the traffic of the entire canyon passage.

And to the south of the Viscount of Qiuli, in the lofty mountains and mountains with a radius of thousands of miles, if Lin Qi remembers correctly, there is a small exit from the Fifth Abyss World located in this mountain range. To hell with the gods, what a nail spot.

If you can develop a force of your own here, the appendix of the continent, then it can really become the appendix of the entire continent without moving, but once it is inflamed, it will make the whole continent feel painful.

Let's see how many places the Viscount of Churi can influence, in addition to the two empires, the church headquarters and the Vyas Commercial Federation, there are several empires, kingdoms, and principalities in the south of the two empires. In other words, this point determines almost half of the communication and transportation between the eastern and western parts of the western continent.

Looking up at Viscount Churi, who was standing next to the sand table and babbling about the glorious past of his great-grandfather, Lin Qi couldn't help but laugh and begged for food with a golden rice bowl, a mere income of 1,000 gold coins a year? This viscount is even more miserable than a small merchant in the Gallic Empire.

Coughing lightly, Lin Qi hooked his finger at the Boom.

He ran over and took out two fine cigars from his spatial ring, one handed to Lin Qi and the other to Viscount Churi. When Viscount Churi saw the platinum sleeve on the outside of the cigar smoke, and the Chamber of Commerce badge with the crown on the cigar smoke, Viscount Churi's face turned black!

He had seen this cigar once, when he had gone to the Earl's Court, which ruled the region, to give a New Year's gift, and he had seen it once in the hands of the proud earl. Only this time, he hadn't seen the second time, and that was because the Earl had done a personal business for the Grand Duke of Arazuki, and was appreciated by the Grand Duke, so he took out ten cigars from a gift given to the Grand Duke by a certain Grand Chamber of Commerce and gave them to the Earl.

The cigar "Mother Earth Queen" is called the Mother Earth Queen, the best cigar produced from the Goblin Continent, with a market price of 3,000 gold coins, and the price of each cigar is the net income of Viscount Churi's entire viscount for three years.

Viscount Churi's hands were trembling, he didn't even know what the Mother Earth Emperor was like, anyway, when the first puff of smoke was inhaled into his mouth, he was completely intoxicated and he was calculating how much gold his puff of smoke was worth!

Seeing Viscount Churi's face, which was sometimes pale and sometimes red, Lin Qi flicked the cigarette ash lightly and said lightly: "Then, I have a mention." Be my vassal family, Viscount Churi. I will use the power of the family to support you, and in the future, maybe I will let you take the position of Grand Duke Lanyue, and even I will let you get more, are you willing?"

Viscount Churi raised his head sharply, he looked at Lin Qi in horror, and he didn't say anything for a long time.

Lin Qi repeated his question again, and Viscount Churi's face had turned dead white.

As Lin Qi repeated his question for the third time, Viscount Churi suddenly fell to one knee in front of Lin Qi.

"Then, Your Excellency Lin Qi, I will be your most loyal follower from now on. (To be continued)
