Chapter 167 Meeting below
Richard's gaze swept and he could see that little Fontaine was secretly looking at the middle-aged man's face, so he said gently, "Lord Baron, I fought alongside your father not long ago. Bayi Chinese Netbubble-Book_Bar () So the relationship between our two families should be closer than it is now. ”
Before the little baron could reply, his uncle sneered and said, "A pioneer knight also wants to be close to the baron's family?
Richard glanced faintly at the little baron's uncle and said, "The pioneer knight is not a knight. ”
"Of course a knight is not a knight!" said the barone's uncle, laughing, "until you have conquered your own territory and been recognized by the royal family, you will be considered a true nobleman." The knight is a standard nobleman!"
Richard smiled, there was no comment, since he didn't understand what he meant, there was no need for comment. Richard's eyes fell on the little baron again, and asked, "Lord Baron, you don't seem to like me building a castle in my current place?"
"Ah, no...... No, it's none of my business where you build the castle!" replied the little baron, a little flustered. Although there was a whole row of samurai standing behind him, they didn't give him even the slightest sense of security.
At this time, the middle-aged man who had not spoken slowly said: "Lord Richard, the location where you built the castle seems to be a little different from the place where you registered to open up. If I'm not mistaken, that land should belong to the Duchy of the Blue Wolf. ”
Richard glanced at him and said quietly, "That's right, just a few days ago, the Duke made me a knight, and that land is my territory." ”
The middle-aged man frowned and said, "The scope of that land is much larger than a knight's domain, and this is a bit wrong. ”
"Who are you?" asked Richard with a faint smile.
The middle-aged man waved his hand and said, "It doesn't matter who I am......"
Richard indirectly interrupted him and said coldly: "Shut up if it's not important!"
A burst of anger immediately flashed on the middle-aged man's face, and his mouth opened, wanting to say something, but in the end he was silent, but his face was full of clouds. He was scheming, and he did not jump into Richard's language trap and shake out his origin and position.
However, at this time, Richard naturally saw that this middle-aged nobleman was the key to the change in the attitude of the Baron family. And the uncle of the little Baron Fontaine is now obviously in power, and the little baron, who is still a child, is completely empty. As for Lord Moon Bear, who was originally going to stay for a while when he left, there was no trace of him, but this was the most intriguing thing in comparison.
"Lord Baron, there are almost no people in my domain. And I need hired labor, wood, and stone to build a castle, can you provide that?" asked Richard.
The little baron's uncle once again took the lead and said with a smile: "Lord Richard, I'm really sorry, our family also needs to carry out a major overhaul of Dusk Castle now, so the materials that can be divided are very limited. You see, it's not that we don't offer it, it's just that the price is a bit expensive. ”
Richard suddenly smiled, shook his head, and said, "Ten times the price is still a bit expensive, hehe." Well, I get what you mean. Where is Pierce now, hand him over and I'll leave at once. ”
It seems that he didn't expect things to end so lightly. The little baron's face turned a little pale, and his uncle's eyes flickered in bewilderment. Richard, on the other hand, stood up and began to admire the ornaments and antiquities in the drawing-room. The Fontaine family has been inherited for hundreds of years, and naturally there are many fine collections, such as vases on the shelves and oil paintings on the walls, which are all valuable masterpieces.
Richard picked up a vase and flipped it in his hand to enjoy it. Seeing the crystal vase worth thousands of gold coins being tossed in Richard's hand, the little baron couldn't help but shout after all: "Lord Richard......"
With a snap, the crystal vase fell from Richard's hand and shattered on the ground. Only then did Richard turn his head, smile lightly at the little baron, and say, "Lord Baron, you called me something?"
Except for Richard, all eyes fell on the crystal fragments on the ground. It doesn't take much knowledge to see the value of this vase, but thousands of gold coins disappeared with this loud sound.
The little baron was incoherent, and he didn't know what he wanted to say: "Richard...... You ......"
"What am I doing?" asked Richard with a light smile. As he spoke, his hand swept gracefully over the mantelpiece, and another magic clock of fine work and material slipped from his fingertips and slammed it to the ground. Fortunately, there was a thick carpet on the floor, and the bell case was only deflated in a piece. However, with the delicate process of magic equipment, a small damage could destroy the magic array inside. If it is repaired, it will not be a problem that can be handled by a few hundred gold coins.
Seeing that thousands of gold coins flew away from Richard's hand, the little baron's uncle couldn't sit still anymore, stood up on the ground, pointed at Richard and shouted: "You little knight, how dare you go wild in the castle at dusk?"
Richard sighed and said lightly, "I don't think so, I'm just not in a good mood." Also, I'm just a little knight, but don't forget that I'm still a pioneer knight. Sir, even if I go wild in the castle of twilight, what can you do?
The little baron's uncle was surprised and wanted to roar, but found that he could not say a word. In the entire Fontaine family, there are only eleventh level swordsmen in him, and the personal guards behind the little baron look fierce, but they are only five or six levels, and they are not much better than a group of sheep in front of the real powerhouse. You must know that the people brought by Richard are in the lounge more than ten meters away, not to mention Gangde, even those barbarian guards are a little afraid. The true combat power of this kind of innate ability race is often a little higher than the level on the surface.
Therefore, if you really use force, it will not take a few minutes for all the people in the parlor to be killed.
As for the war, no matter how arrogant and ignorant he was, he did not think that with the remaining less than two hundred veterans in his family and the few hundred recruits he had just recruited, he would be able to start a war with Richard.
The little baron's uncle was surprised, and then in a panic set his gaze on the middle-aged nobleman who was constantly sitting still.
Originally, the scenario they set was not like this, in their perception, although Richard was a powerful magician, he was also an out-and-out child of an aristocratic family.
With the late Baron Fontaine's relationship in it, the Baronial family expressed an unwelcoming attitude towards Richard, and distorted the material supply contract previously assigned by the Duke of Wolf, Richard should have turned around in anger and left, and then went to the Duke of Wolf to mediate, which is the normal way for any nobleman with a common lord to deal with disputes.
As for what happened to Richard on the way back, it had nothing to do with the Baron's family at all.
But what should we do now? We can neither use force nor war, do we have to reason with Richard?
