Lord of the Oasis Chapter 87: .The Hillbills of North County
The dinner is over.
Kant and Baron Dylan talked a few more words, and then parted each other as the night fell.
The maid led the way and walked to the pre-arranged room in the official residence. Manid and the five Salander riders, as well as the desert robbers who did not attend the dinner, were also next to Kant's room. Not bad.
However, the torches in the Lord's Hall were still burning, leaving the entire spacious space with a pungent smell of smoke.
Baron Dylan sat quietly in his chair.
There is excitement in his eyes.
At the main entrance of the hall, two burly figures pushed open the door and entered. As the light lit up, they were two of the former vassal knights, and they were also Baron Dylan's true right-hand man.
"Lord Dylan." The two of them came back and bowed respectfully.
"Yes." Baron Dylan nodded.
He pointed to the chair next to him and said casually: "Sit down, you two are next door, you should understand."
"Yes." The two sat down without shyness and nodded at the same time.
The two vassal knights are next door as Kant talks to Baron Dylan.
After all, Baron Dylan also needs protection. Even if there are guards at the door, the five Salander riders in the lord's hall still gave everyone here a faint heart palpitation.
This is the pressure of facing elite warriors.
But now Baron Dylan is not thinking about this, but the jar of white salt on the table in front of him.
"Are there salt mines in the Narun Desert?"
Baron Dylan asked indifferently: "If I remember correctly, it has been nearly 10 years since we came to the Stone Pass. Why don't we know anything about it?"
The two vassal knights looked at each other and bowed their heads in shame, "Sorry."
"No need to apologize." Baron Dylan shook his head.
Squinting slightly, his eyes flashed a dangerous light: "Even if there is a salt mine, it is estimated that it will go deep into the Naron Desert. After all, when we went deep into the desert to kill the gnoll tribe, there was no salt around the sentry oasis. mine.”
The vassal knight nodded, waiting for Baron Dylan to speak.
And Baron Dylan did say: "But this is an opportunity, I didn't expect that little Kant really survived in the sentry oasis, and he also discovered a salt mine, and it seems that he is alive and well. "
Thinking of the Sarandian rider in full iron armor, Baron Dylan narrowed his eyes and said, "Could it be that Princess Sophia's forces are still secretly supporting him?"
"It's impossible."
The two vassal knights squinted slightly, and their eyes were also solemn.
They knew Baron Dylan, and they even came from the civilian class. They have more than ten years of friendship and trust that they can rely on on the battlefield. Otherwise, Baron Dylan would not be regarded as a confidant like this now.
"It's possible." Baron Dylan snorted coldly.
Thinking about the unequal treatment that I have always encountered when I came to the Stone Pass in North County, my anger rose.
Clenching his fists, he slowly said, "Wait quietly, time will prove everything." After a while, he said in a low voice, "But our destiny is to be controlled by ourselves. With the money from the salt trade, I can recruit more knights and arm more soldiers, so even Viscount Wayne, who rules North County, will be afraid of our strength.”
"We all listen to you." The two vassal knights nodded, their faces determined.
………………
In the room, Kant was resting quietly.
Manid has just left.
They talked a little bit, but didn't talk much because of the poor sound insulation.
Just a brief talk about today's trade.
In other people's territory, there is absolutely no way to publicize any secret news. Who knows if there is a spy from Baron Dylan just next door to these rooms?
To this Uncle Dylan, Kant has no so-called sincerity.
There is a saying that is right, only children pay attention to right and wrong, and only interests are eternal among nobles.
Now Kant has shown a profit that Baron Dylan could not refuse, and also showed a small part of his own strength. The cooperation between the two parties can basically go hand in hand.
As for the duration, Kant is also not sure.
But at the very least, the two sides can be called a friendly and peaceful honeymoon period within a year.
As for a year later, Baron Dylan, who has tasted the sweetness, has made a strong change with the help of this trade. When he wants to continue with Kant to divide the cake that has already benefited him, he will find that the original Kant, who is just a little snake, will become what a terrifying dragon.
In one year, with the help of the system, how could Kant fail to develop?
This is Kant's confidence!
There is a saying in the Principality of Lions: A lion is the strongest only when he is an adult.
A young lion, let alone a local dog, even a desert antelope dares to kick it with its hooves, because they all know that a young lion has no sharp claws, fangs, and no strong physique.
Only rely on the blessing of other adult lions to finally survive.
Kant and his "Drehem" are such a young lion, absorbing all nutrients and seeking the protection of all adult lions.
Willing to pay part of the prey for this.
But when a lion grows up, with sharp claws and a strong physique, who will continue to plunder its food?
No one dares.
This is the law of the forest, and it is also the law of the jungle.
She fell into a drowsy sleep.
But Kant remained vigilant.
It was a good night.
When he woke up the next morning, Kant, who was sleeping on the soft bed, couldn't help but stretch.
I have to say that the rooms in this official residence are very well set up, especially the soft bed, which made him feel a little sore in his waist, who was used to sleeping on a hard bed.
Of course, the quality of this sleep is very satisfactory.
Walking out of the room, Manid and the cavalry also came out.
The maid leads them on to the Lord's Hall, where breakfast will be held.
The vassal knights of Stone Pass had already reached their positions first, laughing with each other and talking about various things, but the topics were nothing more than women and wine, or how heroic they used to be on the battlefield .
After Kant entered, the noise in the hall was all for a while.
Continues to appear just by talking.
However, occasionally there are some vassal knights who look at Kant with a bad face, especially the chain armor under the linen robes of the five Salander riders, with envious eyes and some kind of bad covet.
"Humph." Kant snorted coldly.
Manid and the rider who were sitting next to their own seat ~IndoMTL.com~ also sat down according to their position yesterday.
They spoke in low voices to themselves, and the vassal knights did not break the water.
The truly capable vassal knights have long since been canonized and have their own fief villages around the Stone Pass. Those who stay here are all those reckless men who only know how to fight.
And just looking at the rude looks, there is no comparison with these five Salander riders.
"No wonder it's called the Hillbilly Knight."
Kant sneered at the corner of his mouth. The anecdote he heard at Lion Castle also came to mind.
North County is a barren place, so the equipment of the knights and the quality of the soldiers belong to the last ranks of the troops recruited by the entire Lion Principality. Every time a war is waged with the enemy, the lords and troops of North County are second-rate. cannon fodder.
It's no wonder they're called a bunch of North County country bumpkins, brainless rude warriors.
Kant can even make judgments.
Looking at the bad looks on these guys and the coveted appearance of the five Sarandian riders beside him, I guess that after leaving the Stone Pass, there will be a little accident.
