The matter of the mountain people was solved so easily.

The next day, Jack set out to meet Rogge on the mountain people's side, and brought Hardy's plan with him.

Next, this group of mountain people will start to build roads and houses according to the plan, and will not accept it until a small military camp is formed.

Of course, during this time, Hardy will ask Jack and the two newly recruited mercenaries to supervise the mountain people.

to ensure that the mountain people will work according to his plan.

During this period, a lot of money and food will be spent, but compared to the wealth of the Hardy family, it is a drop in the bucket.

Moreover, the Hadi family is not without income.

The estate's wine can bring in a lot of income, and there are several shops in River Creek City, which are engaged in the purchase and processing of furs, as well as the purchase and sale of grain.

Hardy himself lived an extremely industrious and regular life on the estate.

Practice swordsmanship in the morning, learn magic theory in the afternoon, and become a nightmare knight in the evening, riding a horse in the deserted mountains and forests.

Suffice it to say, in addition to taking a bath, sleeping and eating, he has been making himself stronger without wasting a single second.

After tossing like this for more than half a month, he became stronger, and then received an invitation.

from the Count of Vernicia, inviting him to a mysterious banquet tonight.

Lillian handed the invitation to Hardy and said, "Master, do you want Green and Perrault to come back and go with you to the lord's castle to save your face?" ”

Hardy shook his head: "No, with the strength of Your Excellency the Lord, it is very easy to deal with our Hadi family." Not to mention two more mercenaries, twenty more is useless. ”

The strength of Green and Perrault is very average, and even the current Hardy can't beat it, let alone compete with the lord.

Among the professionals under the lord's command, there may not be anyone who is particularly strong, but there are many others who can't stand it.

Dozens of professionals serve it, plus at least three thousand elite soldiers.

This is the foundation of the Fernigia family, which has been inherited for six generations in Hexiling.

"Besides, I think it's going to be a great thing." Hardy smiled.

In the evening, Hardy changed into a formal dress, and then Jack's youngest grandson, Link, drove the carriage to the Lord's Mansion.

Link is very serious and meticulous in his work.

Although compared to Jack, there are still many deficiencies, such as love is startled, and he doesn't know how to guide the maids to do things.

But he was very studious, and even drove a carriage.

By the time we arrived at the Lord's Castle, it was completely dark.

Hardy thought that Vernicia VI should have invited many guests to this so-called mysterious banquet, but he didn't expect that outside the gate of the manor, only ten carriages were neatly parked.

That is, it was a rather intimate banquet?

Hardy showed the invitation to the guards and entered the castle.

This time the hall was a little dark, there weren't many candles, and there was already a group of people standing and chatting inside.

Virginia, the fat lord, sat under the throne, smiled and talked to the others, and then when he saw Hardy coming in, he immediately beckoned and said, "Hardy, come here." ”

Hardy walked over, bent over and saluted, "I haven't seen you in a month, my lord." ”

"Indeed." Virginia's fat wrinkled face smiled: "You have done a good job, not only to solve the problems of the mountain people, but also to turn them into your own tenant farmers, what a strange idea. ”

There were more than a dozen people standing around, all of them Virginia's 'retainers', and when they heard Virginia praise him like this, they all looked at the handsome young man in front of them with curiosity.

"I just thought of it in a flash of inspiration, it's just luck."

Virginia waved her hand: "No one else thought of it, but you thought of it, and this is also a skill." ”

Then he stood up and glanced at the butler beside him, who immediately went to fetch the ceremonial sword and put it into his hand.

"You should remember my promise to you."

Hadi immediately knelt down on one knee and said, "Thank you, Your Excellency, for the reward." ”

"When I was canonized as a knight before, I already said the oath, but now I don't want to say it, everything is simple, because there will be more important things later." Virginia pressed the ceremonial sword to Hardy's left shoulder: "From now on, you are the baron of the River Stream, enjoying all the privileges of the baron, and you also need to fulfill the obligations of the baron. ”

Hardy exhaled and said gratefully, "Thank you very much for your trust and love, and I will continue to protect this land and the sacred and great family name of Virginia." ”

It's no wonder that Hardy is excited.

The baron is a true nobleman, and the so-called knighthood has an insurmountable chasm with it.

With nobility, many things are much easier to do.

Virginia took back the sword and handed it to the butler next to him, he smiled and said, "In the future, you will have the power to open up the territory, but you must remember one thing, you can't do anything to our own people." By the way, the letter of appointment will be delivered to your home tomorrow. ”

"I understand." Hardy stood up.

There was applause all around, and more than a dozen other nobles from the river and creek collars sent sincere congratulations to Hardy.

Virginia looked around, and just as he was canonizing Hardy as a nobleman, four more people came.

"Now that everyone is together...... Virginia clapped his hands: "Close the door, the banquet begins." ”

The gate at the entrance of the castle slammed shut, and at this time Virginia had a smug smile on her face: "I have sent people to Mishr for three years, and I have obtained a very rare thing, I do not want to have it alone, you are all my most precious friends, and I will share this joy with you to witness our wonderful friendship." ”

Misle?

Hardy recalled, and soon remembered that it was a desert country, with its speciality being deathly sweet dates and several majestic pyramids.

Is there a rare thing there?

I'm not impressed.

Hardy had also gone there to farm monsters in the game before, and the gold mining efficiency was average, and then he switched to Francie, which made him 'rich'.

But the other nobles were not as confused as Hardy.

They seemed to understand something in an instant, their eyes lit up, and they swallowed hard.

At this moment, two servants came in carrying a stretcher, on which was placed something that seemed to be quite heavy, and it was covered with a white face, and it was impossible to see what it was for the time being.

The stretcher was placed on the table by the servants.

The other nobles immediately rushed to the table and found their place.

Put a napkin on your clothes, take a knife and fork at the same time, and wait for the meal to begin.

Hardy sat down too, looking at the stretcher and guessing what was inside.

A rare piece of Warcraft meat?

Or something else?

Just as he was guessing, the white cloth was taken away by the servant, revealing the true nature of the things underneath.

Wow!

The nobles let out exclamations of joy.

Hardy, on the other hand, had pupils in both eyes...... The facial expression was terrifying.

On the dining table was a dried corpse.

He has seen no matter how disgusting the corpse is in the game, and a dry corpse should not be able to scare him.

But...... The attitude shown by these nobles was the reason for his fear.

These people are going to eat this dried corpse?

At this time, Virginia said with a smug face: "This is a holy pharaoh, and in order to buy him, I lost more than a hundred gold coins. Therefore, as the master, I take the first knife and take away his most important parts, do you have no opinion? ”

"Nope!" The nobles excitedly shouted, "Long live Virginia!" ”

Amid the cheers, Virginia VI slashed his knife between the mummy's legs and removed a short, but strip-shaped object.

The butler next to him handed over the red wine with both hands.

Virginia put the strip into the glass, shook it a few times, waited for a moment, took a soft sip, and sighed contentedly, "Worthy of the holy pharaoh, the taste is better than that of the average Misle." ”

The nobles all looked at each other with envy.

And Hardy finally couldn't take it anymore, and he quickly fled from the table, ran to the corner of the castle, and threw up with a wow.

The contents of his stomach were emptied in an instant, and then stomach acid poured out of his mouth like water.

It's so TM disgusting.

The nobles looked at each other, and after a moment of silence, they burst out laughing.
