42 Qingting Island

After staying in Yangwu City for three days, watching the transport ship full of food and daily necessities sail towards Eagle's Beak Island, Samwell finally breathed a sigh of relief and said goodbye to Viscount Blanton.

So, under the warm farewell of Viscount Blanton, and under the resentful gaze of Miss Alice, Samwell and his party stepped on the sea ship to Qingting Island and set sail.

The journey was calm and calm, and after only six days, the ship successfully crossed the Redwin Strait and arrived at Qingting Island.

The island is famous for its abundance of wines, especially the golden wine of Qingting Island, which is the most sought after by the nobles of the Seven Kingdoms, and the price is also extremely expensive, which can be called "liquid gold".

However, what really made the Redwin family one of the most influential nobles in the river bay was obviously not wine, but the Qingting Island fleet.

This fleet, together with the royal fleet and the iron fleet, is known as the three major fleets of Westeros, and is an important maritime force that can influence the situation of the Seven Kingdoms.

In the afternoon sun, Samwell walked slowly down the trestle.

The wharves were bustling with laborers carrying goods, shouting loud trumpets to load large bags of goods onto merchant ships.

Looking at the familiar scene in front of them, Samwell's guards all showed a look of nostalgia.

Only half a year ago, they were just like these people, carrying heavy goods every day, but they could barely fill their stomachs, but now, their fate has changed completely.

Thinking of this, the guards looked at the lords in front of them with extremely eager eyes.

The arrival of Samwell and his party did not cause any waves, although Todd Fohua had written back in advance to make his intention to visit, but obviously, with Samwell's current prestige, it was impossible to get a big welcome from the Redwin family.

In fact, none of their family members came, and only one servant was sent to greet them.

That's a bit excessive.

Even when Samwell entered the castle and drank tea in the parlor for a long day, he still did not see Earl Pexter.

At this time, even Todd Fohua's face became extremely gloomy, but Samwell still had that leisurely appearance.

In fact, he already had some expectations for the cold reception of the Redwin family, after all, according to Mrs. Olenna's plan, although the new territory of Hawksbill Island was nominally Samwell's, the actual controller was the Redwin family.

Now that Samwell refuses to be at his mercy, Earl Paxter naturally won't give him a good look.

However, he was not in a hurry.

After reaching a supply agreement with Viscount Blanton in Yangwu City, the food crisis in the territory has been temporarily resolved, so he no longer needs the support of the Redwin family so urgently.

As for brandy, he didn't have to ask the Redwing family to help sell it.

Although the Redwin family is indeed the best partner to work with, after all, they have mature sales channels, and they can send brandy to the wine table of the major nobles in Westeros as quickly as possible, and it is easier to make brandy famous if it is sold in the name of Qingting Island Winery, but if they don't know what to do, then it is not impossible to change the partner.

After the mentality is calmed down, Samwell doesn't care, just to see what tricks that Earl Paxter can play.

It was only when the sun went down that Samwell and his party began to scream with hunger, and finally someone walked into the living room.

"Oops, why is it so dark? Someone, send some candles! ”

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, Sam, for keeping you waiting."

Coming in were Earl Pixter's twin sons, Horace Redwin and Horbert Redwin.

The faces of the two are almost carved out of a mold, with square faces, orange hair, and freckles all over their faces.

However, the two brothers are still very easy to distinguish.

The elder brother Horace is taller and has more aggressive eyes, looking like everyone is about to fight, while the younger brother Hober, who speaks slurred and slurred as if his mouth was full of saliva and he didn't swallow it.

"It's okay, the journey is tiring, and we just rested for half a day." Samwell said with a smile.

Horace stared at Samwell for a long time, and said:

"Sam, I haven't seen you for a few years, you've changed a lot."

Huo Bai also nodded in agreement: "Yes, you've lost a lot of weight, haven't you been able to eat enough lately?" ”

Horace immediately said: "It's really hard to eat enough in a ghost place like the Crimson Mountains, hahaha......"

The two brothers burst out laughing as they spoke.

Samwell smiled and looked at the two of them quietly, as if he were looking at two fools.

The memories belonging to the original owner flooded out, making him realize that he still had a relationship with these two brothers.

When Earl Landau, before he had completely given up on his eldest son, he brought Samwell to Qingting Island, hoping to get him to be betrothed to Desmera Redwin, the daughter of Earl Parker.

But unfortunately, Samwell at that time was not angry, not only failed to win the favor of Earl Paxter, but also cried bitterly under the teasing and teasing of the two brothers Horace and Hopper, and lost face.

"It's really easy to get hungry." Samwell didn't care about the two brothers' ridicule at all, "That's why I came to Qingting Island, hoping to get the help of the Redwin family to support some food and supplies on Eagle's Beak Island." ”

Although he had already signed a supply contract with Sunny House, Samwell didn't mind having another supplier.

Otherwise, let the Blanton family control the food lifeline of Hawksbill Island, what if Viscount Blanton turns his face one day? Or what if he has to marry Miss Alice?

"Well......" said Horace, smiling reservedly, "I'll wait until my father returns." ”

"The Earl is not on the island?"

"Yes, but my father went to inspect the territory."

"And when will he be back?"

"It's hard to say, maybe tomorrow, maybe next week...... After all, Qingting Island is so big, and I don't know where my father is now. ”

When Samwell heard this, he still smiled on the surface, but he had already scolded in his heart.

"In that case, let's not bother much, we still have something to do, so we'll leave tomorrow."

"You're leaving tomorrow?" Hearing Samwell say that he was leaving, Horace was stunned.

"yes." Samwell smiled, "I'm going to Old Town again." ”

"Then you will come to Qingting Island again when you return, right?" Hopper couldn't help but ask.

"It will depend on the situation then." Samwell pinched it up, "Maybe I'll dock again, and hopefully I'll see Lord Earl then." ”

Horace tugged at the corners of his mouth, his face cloudy.

After a while, he reluctantly smiled:

"In that case, then I'll send someone to arrange a room for you and rest early."

"Okay, then I'll trouble you."

Samwell didn't drag his feet in the slightest, got up and walked out.

Horace and his brother looked at each other, unable to hide their surprise.

But soon, the two brothers exchanged glances in tacit agreement, and then quickened their pace, sending Samwell out on the left and right.

The door to the parlor was not wide enough for the three of them to walk side by side, but the Horace brothers did not avoid it at all, but took the opportunity to squeeze into the middleβ€”

Boom!

There was a muffled sound, but it was Samwell who calmly stepped out the door, and the two brothers staggered and almost fell over.

"Yikes! I'm sorry, you're okay. Samwell looked back in surprise.

Holding back the burning pain in his shoulder and the irrepressible shock in his heart, Horace said:

"It's okay, we tripped by accident."

"I see." Samwell suddenly realized, "I thought you two didn't have enough to eat." ”

After speaking, he ignored the red faces of the two brothers and walked away.
