Because the Harland family is strong and the Cisse family is weak, Jerram also asked Richard and Viscount Cisse to sign a royal power and order contract, as long as Richard and Viscount Cisse live, they cannot attack each other.

This pact was clearly unfair to Richard. After all, Richard was still young, and Viscount Cisse was already in his sixties.

Once Viscount Cisse has an accident, the Cisse family can unilaterally attack the Harland Lord.

And as soon as the Haaland family crosses the line, Richard will be countered by the royal seal.

Richard resolutely refused to agree to this kind of contract.

Even in public, he clamored for revenge against the viscount of Cisse.

Whoever dares to force him to sign such a contract, he will openly kill people. Prince Felix is here and wants his life too.

Such an attitude made Jeram a little shocked.

He didn't expect that this little border nobleman would not even listen to the words of the big man in the royal capital.

However, the Harland family has a deep foundation in the north, and Richard also has a reputation for being good at war, with 3,000 troops under his command who can fight well, and have repeatedly made meritorious contributions in the orc war.

His father, William, and his third uncle, Bernie, served in the Northern Legion for many years, and their relationship was also intertwined.

Even the big nobles of the royal capital are very cautious in dealing with this kind of land snake, and once they don't get the frontier right, it will be erosive.

Moreover, Richard also has some truth in this matter. King Charlie asked Jerram to mediate, which was obviously unfair to the Haaland family.

Richard was reluctant to sign a permanent peace pact with Viscount Cisse, and at most was willing to sign a short-term peace pact with the Cisse family.

And only willing to sign for three years.

Such a gesture is enough to show attitude.

The Haaland family and the Cisse family have almost irreconcilable contradictions.

Between the aristocracy and the aristocracy, once there is a conflict of interest, there will inevitably be contradictions.

The vast majority of contradictions are resolved through lord warfare.

The army of the Haraland family and the army of the Cissal family are both important military forces in the northern region. Both sides together are more than five thousand people.

The royal capital and the council of nobles would never agree with the two nobles and consume the army in internal conflicts.

Richard spoke publicly with the mediation team that the Haaland family was only willing to sign a short-term peace pact.

If the Cissés agree, a short-term peace will be restored.

If the Cisse family does not agree, they will continue to fight the wine war until one side is completely defeated and withdraws from the wine market.

Three months of wine war, heavy losses on both sides.

But the Cisse family is in even more trouble, losing casino profits, and fighting a drinking war with the Haaland family, which is constantly filling holes.

Several times with the Haaland family's pros, the Cisse family also tended to suffer more losses.

The Pros lost seven men in the battle, while the Haraland family suffered only three casualties.

The Viscount of Cisse has a total of sixty-seven professionals, and the number of professionals in Haaland's territory has now exceeded two hundred.

If you continue to consume, it will be the Viscount of Cisse who will fail.

Seeing that Richard's attitude was so fierce that even the king couldn't suppress it, Viscount Cisse suddenly regretted it a little, and felt that he should not rashly get involved in the interests of others.

While the two sides were negotiating, two mysterious men attacked the Ronin Mansion.

Ronin was the fourth son of Viscount Cisse, and it was he who pushed Viscount Cisse to get involved in the wine industry.

Two super fireballs hit Luo Ning's mansion, and Luo Ning's entire family, including guards and servants, all died in the super fireball attack.

According to the priest's confirmation, these two fireballs were powerful fireball spells released by the magician, and they were a few points more powerful than the magic of the Nine Rings.

Using a powerful fireball technique to kill Luo Ning's entire family, it can be seen that Richard hated this man.

In the face of such a huge reaction from the Haaland family, not only Viscount Cisse, but also many members of the Cisse family regretted it.

I feel that I shouldn't rashly grudge with the Haaland family, not only have I lost casino profits now, but it is difficult to earn back 8,000 gold coins to make up for the loss of casino profits just by relying on the liquor sales in one province.

Although Luo Ning is dead, not many people in the Cisse family are willing to avenge him, and even many people have some resentment towards Ronin, thinking that he has provoked a powerful enemy for the Cisse family.

During the negotiations, he was still ruthless, and Richard's ruthlessness was thoroughly displayed in the eyes of the royal capital mediation team.

Looking at his crazy eyes, Jerram was secretly surprised.

Richard almost openly killed Viscount Cisse's son, and at the mediation meeting gave an ultimatum either to sign a three-year peace pact or to continue the trade war.

In desperation, Viscount Cisse swallowed this breath and decided to take a three-year reprieve, to see if there was a chance to get rid of Richard, the enemy?

When signing the short-term contract, Richard also specifically asked the Cisse family to send back the salesperson who leaked the liquor process.

After getting the liquor process, this person is naturally useless to the Cisse family.

Seeing that Richard looked like he would not hand over and not sign a contract, Viscount Cisse had no choice but to hand over.

Richard hated this traitor to the core. Not only will he send all his family to the mine, but he will also subjected the man to the worst torture.

He sent this traitor to various castles and factories, demanded that everyone cut the traitor, and intimidated the factory workers and the castle lords.

Because of the healing and blood transfusions, whenever the traitor can't hold on, he will be treated, transfused blood, and hang his life.

This torture lasted more than ten days, and a total of more than 20,000 knives were cut, before the traitor's life was completely ended.

The real purpose of Richard's radical campaign was to educate the people.

In particular, some workers and bureaucrats involved in secrets showed them the tragic situation of this person to prevent the process from continuing to leak.

Nowadays, the development of the territory is inseparable from a variety of new commodities.

And the process of producing new goods is the most important thing in maintaining the monopoly in Haaland's territory.

Now the leakage of the liquor process has caused the Haaland territory to lose a provincial market, and the loss is already very serious.

After signing the contract, Richard immediately sold the liquor craft to Baron Harden for 3,000 gold coins.

Then he found Baron Raphael, Viscount Rohman, Viscount Nelson, Count Roger, Duke Jonathan, Duke Edward, Duke Fox and powerful nobles to promote the process of brewing liquor.

Although he could make a lot of profits from the sale of liquor every year, he was able to control the liquor process in his hands, and several commercial leaders in the dukedom agreed to Richard's offer.

Richard sold the liquor brewing process to a total of eight nobles, and the only markets he has left now are Harland's territory and Heihe County.

However, after selling eight nobles at one time, Richard recovered the funds of 24,000 gold coins.

With so many gold coins, it is useless not to spend them.

Richard took out 6,000 gold coins from the vault, scraped together 30,000 gold coins, and went to the Grand Duchy of Starnik again, where he bought 6,000 slaves.

With the addition of these six thousand slaves, the population of Haaland's territory will exceed sixty-three thousand.
