Chapter 0165: Mercenary Inquisition
For ordinary people, there are no other holidays every year except for the annual festival and the king's celebration.
Therefore, after the New Year's Festival, the Iris family is still in full swing to build the territory, and the gallop road, which has consumed a lot of financial resources, is about to merge with the old gallop. The advertising effect in the "King Plantagenet" newspaper also began to be highlighted, and many mercenary groups from outside the province also rushed to the lakeside city.
"The family has no money, Orenor, we need to borrow a batch of funds from the Eagle Strike Sky family, will you come forward or will I come forward?"
Lady Helena held the ledger every day, but no matter how careful she was, the family's funds were still exhausted.
Baron Aureno scratched his hair with some distress: "It's better for me to come forward, after all, this won't be a small amount of money...... Speaking of which, Aldington's remuneration has also been misappropriated by us? ”
"Yes, in addition to his remuneration, there are also gifts he received at Versailles, and everything that can be realized has been converted into Lev. I can't imagine that we have to spend our own son's money, and the Iris family is really humble enough. ”
"Haha, what's this, anyway, the family will be his sooner or later, we just manage it for him."
"But we can't do this anymore, it's very difficult to rely on commercial taxes to make up for it, after all, we have promised so many concessions, and it is impossible to extract too much from commercial taxes in a short period of time."
"Don't worry, ma'am, the gallop is almost repaired, and the knights recruited by the family have also started training, and after a while, I will lead the knights to sweep through the Lake Kronokee area. If you can hunt, you can hunt, if you can't hunt, you can loot the Snow Barbarian tribe, and the resources that the Iris family lacks can be made up. ”
The noble lords are sometimes so direct, what they don't have, they rob directly from the outside, rob the enemy country, rob the natives, and can always support it.
In fact, Aldington has a lot of experience in making money.
But the Aurenor couple didn't want him to get involved more, so he simply studied hard and tried to be promoted to Phantom Beast Knight as soon as possible - at that time, Goldfinger would be reopened, and the promotion to Dragon Knight was just around the corner.
"Bolt, what's wrong with this move?"
"Young Master, this move in the "Dragon-shaped Array Spear" cannot be cultivated alone, it is an excessive move, and it must be combined with the two moves before and after, you need to maintain the consistency of its moves." Usain Bolt, who came all the way from Versailles, seriously taught Aldington's "Dragon-shaped Array Gun".
As a representative marksmanship of the royal family, "Dragon Formation Gun" has a huge reputation, and with the permission of the Sacramento Dragon Knight, Aldington can also practice.
So after settling down with his family, Bolt devoted himself to teaching, he has accepted the reality, and from now on, his fate and the fate of his family will all be pinned on Aldington. Moreover, it was an arrangement by Aldington that allowed Bolt to integrate into the Iris family.
It was the day before, after seeing that Bolt had been doing well these days, Aldington patted him on the shoulder and said, "Bolt, are you still thinking about Lord Sacramento?" ”
"No, young master, I am already a knight of the Iris family, and New Red Leaf Town is the place I miss in my heart."
"Good. From the servant of the dragon knight to the servant of an ordinary knight, you have not been discouraged or resisted, which proves that your heart is indeed qualified. You are my servant, I will not treat you badly, Lord Sacramento said that you have the potential of a Phantom Beast Knight, then, I will give you a gift. ”
Then, Aldington gave him a wolf cub.
"This is Hawking, the heir of the Storm Wolf King Hawke, the strongest of them, I will give it to you to feed, and when it becomes a phantom beast, you can choose to contract it." Aldington, who already has a big cat Hogg, is more or less disdainful of Hawking.
I'm a bit sorry for the Storm Wolf King Hawke, but the Golden Clustered Eared Lynx Nid Hogg is a powerful phantom beast that can bloom twice and has the roots of a dragon beast.
Besides, they have already contracted the big cat Hogg, and even if Hawking becomes a phantom beast, Aldington will not be able to replace him.
The vassals and servants of the Iris family have not yet found anyone who has enough talent to be promoted to Phantom Beast Knight, so Bolt's arrival is just to find a real contract object for Hawking - Phantom Beasts that do not go through the contract are difficult to cultivate a "personality" side and serve the family.
Today's Hawking has become a low-level magical beast, showing his excellent talent.
This made Bolt very happy, he thought that after leaving Seraphud, he would never have the opportunity to become a Phantom Beast Knight, and it was the appearance of Hawking that made him full of motivation for the future.
"Don't be distracted, Bolt, keep your offensive going!" Aldington's voice pulled him back from his distraction, and the knight's spear provoked, and the men and horses rushed through again.
Aldington smiled with satisfaction, waved the enchanted light spear, and rushed over: "That's it, just maintain this attack intensity!" "In the sword battle, he has already suppressed Bolt strongly, but in the cavalry battle, he is still a step behind Bolt, but after every riding battle, there is a huge gain.
"Eagle Shooting Gun" and "Mountain Gun" can already be used as he wants, and "Dragon Array Gun" is also constantly familiar and proficient.
The days went by, day by day.
The city by the lake changes every day, and as the number of people increases, the order begins to deteriorate. But Aldington, who felt that training with Bolt and others had little effect, suddenly turned into a security captain, patrolling Lakeside City all day long to resolve various disputes.
He even established a mercenary inquisition in Lakeside City, and personally trained a group of case-solving personnel to preside over justice and maintain order.
The unruly mercenaries are his best training objects, and even some berserkers, great magician mercenaries, have also become his training objects - he may not be able to beat himself, but he has a contract partner, the big cat Hogg, Hogg appears, and the battle is solved in minutes.
"Lord Aldington, although our Firefox Mercenary Group has violated Article 32 of the Regulations on the Administration of Public Security in Lakeside City, the provisions of gathering crowds to fight, but considering that we are gathering crowds to fight outside the city, and it is the Red Bull Mercenary Group that provokes trouble, you should give us a lighter punishment and a heavier punishment for the Red Bull Mercenary Group."
The leader of the Firefox Mercenary Regiment is a one-eyed dragon, wearing a black blindfold all day long, with a fierce face, and is arguing with reason to avoid punishment.
"Lesden, this is the first time your Firefox mercenary group has gathered to fight this month?" Aldington sat on the referee's bench in the mercenary inquisition, sipping tea indifferently, "I warn you again, Lesden, if there is a fourth brawl among the Firefox mercenary group this month, you can get out of the Cronokey Lake area." ”
"It's not fair, my lord!"
"In the Kronokee Lake area, the Iris family is fair, in Lakeside City, the mercenary inquisition is fair, and now, what I say is fair."
"Adult ......"
"Get out!"
Lesden glared at Aldington angrily, and then he was unwilling to leave the mercenary inquisition, he was unwilling, but no matter how unwilling he was, he could only obey.
The entire Firefox mercenary group taken together is not enough for the big cat Hogg to fight.
Besides, the Kronotke Lake area is rich in resources, and he is reluctant to give up this treasure land, after all, everyone formed a mercenary group just to make money.
"Dealing with this group of mercenaries, you should show such a high profile, Aldington, you are acting more and more like a qualified noble lord."
A familiar voice came from outside the door.
Aldington suddenly laughed and said, "Uncle, when did you come!" ”
