The champion of this competition is naturally the vassal knight.
The chubby butler personally brought a silver plate. On the light blue linen cloth as the bottom, were large silver coins as wide as eggs, with exquisite decorations on the edges, and a male lion card in the middle. Mellon's portrait.
This represents legal tender recognized by Lion Castle.
Also a recently minted silver coin.
The gentlemen and celebrities who attended the banquet swallowed their saliva subconsciously.
On the basis of the value of these 100 large silver coins, it is more than enough to buy hundreds of acres of farmland in the villages near the Stone Pass, but no one is so stupid.
The land in the Northern Territory is very barren.
Bought hundreds of acres of land, and it is estimated that ten years of production will not be able to earn these 100 big silver coins!
The vassal knight respectfully took the silver plate and thanked Baron Dylan with a face full of respect. At the same time, he withdrew in applause and handed it over to his most trusted servant to put it back in his room for storage. After everything was arranged properly Only after returning to the banquet, the atmosphere of the entire banquet was extremely harmonious.
Kant, still holding his glass, chatted and laughed with Baron Dylan.
The topic is also the athletic meeting in the afternoon.
"Little Kant, I see that you are soaked in cold sweat. This is not a good sign. Although your aristocratic etiquette is impeccable, you should also improve your courage."
Baron Dylan exhorts to teach as an elder.
Kant raised his glass in embarrassment and took a sip: "Yes."
"Hahaha." Seeing Kant's appearance, Baron Dylan shook his head and laughed, hiding the disdain in his eyes, looking at the guests in front of him, raised his glass and shouted to everyone: "For the arrival of little Kant, We wish him a cup!"
"Congratulations to Baron Kant!"
In the entire lord's hall, the gentlemen and celebrities, as well as those vassal knights, raised their glasses.
The sweet smell of drunkenness has begun to spread.
However, although the object of their toast is Kant, all of them are Baron Dylan. For them, the actual controller of the Stone Pass is the object of their respect.
As for that Baron Kant?
Oh, no kidding!
Just a poor, poor ghost banished to the desert of Naron.
Who doesn't know the whole lion principality, the lion prince Cameron doesn't like this son, and even all the nobles don't like him, otherwise he wouldn't be almost exiled to the barren place in the Naron Desert. Canonized to Kant.
Northshire is barren enough.
The Stone Pass is the most barren and barren area in the Northern Territory.
But compared to the Narun Desert.
That's the real desolation, the forbidden zone of civilization, the terrifying area that any harsh environment can portray.
An area that even the runaway slaves would not want to set foot in.
Would rather be caught and killed than enter the Naron Desert.
Because living in the desert of Naron is comparable to the biggest torture in prison!
In the chaotic political situation a hundred years ago, the Principality of Lions once promulgated a law, that is, the criminals who have committed treason and monarchy are given a dull knife, a water bag, and a piece of bread , and then let someone lead a team to the Naron Desert and throw the prisoner in the depths of the desert.
This law effectively deterred the chaotic political situation at the time, and it has continued to this day.
It shows the horrors of the Naron Desert.
………………
The dinner party ends as it reaches late into the night.
Drunken gentlemen and celebrities still maintain good manners and thank Baron Dylan.
Then the dinner party was dissolved.
With the help of their respective servants, they returned to their home in a carriage.
Many people's homes are close to their official residences at Stone Pass.
There are also many people, from a dozen villages outside the Stone Pass.
Even the vassal knights left in the end. They all drank a lot tonight, and they were also drunk and satisfied. After all, for these people, the competition and the sumptuous dinner were extremely exciting.
"Uncle Dylan, then I'll go to bed first."
With excitement on Kant's face, he said gratefully: "It's really a beautiful day."
"As long as you are happy, little Kant." Baron Dylan laughed and patted his shoulder, with a bright and forthright smile on his reddish face: "I will not forget your help to me, We are the best friends and the best relatives, and no one can break us!"
"Yes, no one!" Kant nodded firmly.
The two separated.
Kant returned to his room, and he quickly fell asleep after drinking a lot.
Manid and the 10 Salander riders he followed also slept in their respective rooms.
Calm is restored throughout the mansion.
However, Baron Dylan appeared in his meeting room, and the two vassal knights were also there. The face that was drunk after drinking a lot of alcohol has disappeared, and even the redness on his face has disappeared.
Looks like it's untouched.
But the trio didn't care about this little thing.
"How is it?" Baron Dylan turned his head to look at the vassal knight with a depressed expression: "That Ritesy has become a great knight, do you feel anything?"
"He just became a great knight," said the vassal knight.
"Of course." Baron Dylan snorted coldly: "It looks like it's less than half a year." Squinting slightly, his face was very embarrassed: "This guy was respectful to me half a year ago, but now he has become a great knight, dare to dare It's rude to me, if there is no sign from that old Viscount Wayne behind his back, I absolutely don't believe it!"
"It's also a coincidence that he appeared at the competition." Another vassal knight said: "They have a dark line."
"Let the mice deal with it." Baron Dylan waved: "They know what to do. I don't want to let these mice eat and drink for nothing. It's useless. Now that I have an insider, I can find them all."
"Understood." The vassal knight nodded.
He is in charge of the Rat, a spying organization.
"Our plans are expediting."
Baron Dylan opened his mouth and asked the two vassal knights: "I asked you to go to Nanjun County to find some mercenaries. Do you have any news to reply?"
"Yes." The vassal knight nodded.
"How is it?" asked Baron Dylan.
"There are 500 elite mercenaries willing to accept our recruitment, the price is 30 large silver coins per month, if you go to war with the enemy, you will need an additional 20 large silver coins per month during the war, and monthly Some silver coins will be rewarded." The vassal knight replied.
"500 people." Baron Dylan automatically omitted the so-called elite ranking, nodded and said: "30 large silver coins per month, I accept this."
"There are still 500 water pirates willing to join, and only 10 large silver coins are needed per month."
The vassal knight shrugged: "I don't think it's useless to ask them, we don't have a river here, mainly I think that these were hunted by the river patrol of Lionheart City in the Resniston River, just want to come to us to avoid the limelight, etc. When the limelight passes, they will definitely continue to return to the Risneston River and will not follow our orders at all."
"Then let them go." Baron Dylan snorted coldly.
"Yes." The vassal knight nodded.
But Baron Dylan frowned and asked in a serious voice: "Is there no other mercenary willing to accept our long-term employment? This is not in line with those greedy ghosts who see money!"
"You know." The vassal knight smiled bitterly: "The famous mercenary groups in the Principality of Lions are actually the powers of various nobles. If we really hire them, the Stone Pass will not necessarily be used by anyone in the future. The nobles are watching, after all, our current salt trade has attracted the attention of Wayne, Viscount of North County.”
"That old dog!" When Baron Dylan thought of the old thing, some anger rose in his heart.
He patted the table heavily, he stood up with his hands on his back, and walked back and forth in the conference room, as if thinking of something, he turned his head to the vassal knight in charge of this matter and said: "By the way, the nervous Elsa in East County. Can you find a mercenary group from Countess Jia?"
"No." The vassal knight replied helplessly.
"Why?" Baron Dylan frowned.
"Countess Aishaja's East County Territory is still blocked, especially the recent troubles with the Silver Plate Kingdom on the other side of the Rysniston River. It is said that there was a conflict with each other on the river~IndoMTL.com~ Almost and The lords belonging to Fort Nazer on the other side are fighting, and our forces cannot penetrate at all." The vassal knight shook his head.
"Hmph, it wasn't the battle ten years ago." Baron Dylan snorted coldly, seeing no surprise: "If Archduke Cameron hadn't ceded Fort Nazer, which belonged to the countess, to the Kingdom of Silver Plate, they would have loved each other. The relationship between siblings can't be so rigid."
This kind of thing is no secret, he is a title obtained in the war between the Lion Principality and the Silver Plate Kingdom.
It has nothing to do with him now.
Frowning his brows, Baron Dylan instructed: "These are all secondary, go to other places and get in touch. As long as you can introduce qualified mercenaries to us, I can give them an agency fee and the quality of the introduction. The higher the quantity, the higher the intermediary fee, and the settlement is made in big silver coins, and there is no upper limit!"
"Understood!" The vassal knight nodded.
And another vassal knight asked: "My lord, what should Baron Kant do?"
"Don't act rashly," Baron Dylan said.
With a dignified expression on his face, he slowly said: "Princess Sophia's power is still lurking, and it is only now emerging. 16 years is not enough for them to be wiped out. 10 years ago, the Silver Plate Kingdom won that The battle is probably the result of the dark son left by Princess Sophia, and now Kant is still developing rapidly, and it is estimated that they also have their support, we just need to wait slowly, and then contact them."
"But... we were already abandoned by them." The vassal knight hesitated.
"Give up? Huh!" Baron Dylan sneered: "No, now we are the lords next to Kant, who hold the Duchy of Lions and the stone pass that is the only passage in the Naron Desert. How could they give up and come back? Find us!"
He has a dangerous look in his eyes: "This time I will make a good fortune!"
