Golden Greenery

In the morning, when we drove a carriage to the hilltop in the Allgäu Mountains where Count de Port was preparing to build a castle, the place was already very lively. Some were digging the foundation, some were dragging stones up the mountain, and there were more people watching the fun.

Debort was riding a maroon horse, wearing a very respectable robe and boots, and was running up and down to give instructions. Even the people and horses were full of high spirits.

Seeing that the sheep came back as promised, Deporte excitedly galloped down to greet him, and spectators also flocked over.

Seeing that people were almost surrounding him, Yang swung his sword and cut off the rope holding the back of the carriage. ‘Wow~~’ The gold coins in the carriage were scattered all over the floor like a waterfall.

The crisp sound of gold coins hitting each other is the most beautiful sound in the world; the dazzling gold under the sun is the most beautiful color in the world.

Everyone was stunned, including the silly boy Deport.

Yang Yi needed this effect very much. He sheathed his sword and said loudly: "I am Duke Yang Yi from the East. I am very rich. This is only a small part of my property. I am a friend of Count de Port. Therefore, he is also very rich. These gold coins all belong to Count Deport, and he will have more if necessary."

After waiting for a while, the crowd exclaimed "Oh——", and some people even fainted on the spot.

1,737 Frankish gold coins! This is the exact number after asking for details. In the entire Allgäu Mountains, Count Deport instantly became one of the top ten wealthy nobles.

In this era of great chaos in Europe, if you want to do something good, you have to combine titles, castles, and money to have a chance of success.

The castle shows that you have a solid base; the money represents your strength; the title is your appeal.

Indispensable.

However, Yang Yi and Depot still had to sleep in a pigsty-like shack at night.

Deport finally killed two rabbit-like pigs, set up a fire and the two had a good meal of meat. When he was almost full, the sheep looked up at the sky, then took out the armor and sword from the carriage and threw them to Deport.

"Get ready to fight."

DePort is not stupid, he just had no direction in life before.

The two of them wore helmets, carried armor, and wielded long swords. Their longbows and quivers were placed at their feet, and they continued to sit by the fire and eat roast pork.

This is an era of evil intentions.

This is also an era where everyone is a bandit.

After flaunting their wealth in a high-profile manner in the morning, spies from all sides will definitely send the news back to their masters. Those who can't stand it first will come tonight.

Sure enough, the messy sound of horse hooves soon came.

"Depit, are you afraid?"

Debort clutched the hilt of his sword so tightly that his knuckles were turning white in the night.

"Don't be afraid. Duke, you said courage and hope. I want to protect, protect my courage and hope."

Yang Yi feels that Depot is more promising than Yang Yi in Zhongnan Mountain, because at least he is not afraid of death, while he was terribly afraid of death more than three hundred years ago.

The sound of horse hooves was getting closer and closer. Yang Yi and Debote left the fire and filled their bow strings in the dark.

.

Early the next morning, in the Earl of Deport's territory, the bodies of seven intruders were hung upside down in a row on the trees. The Earl and the Duke of the East were talking and laughing by the shack, cooking pumpkin porridge.

On the morning of the third day, the number of corpses increased to seventeen, and the count and duke ate potato stew.

That night, three strong farmers volunteered to assist the count in guarding the territory. The count gave each of them a sword and a pair of leather armor.

On the morning of the fourth day, the number of corpses increased to thirty-one. The Duke, Count, and Farmer, five people finished a pot full of eggplant stew.

That night, four more farmers came.

On the morning of the fifth day, there were exactly fifty corpses, hanging upside down, which was very spectacular. The Earl's pot is too small and is no longer sufficient.

Then, the world would be clean, and no plunderers would dare to step into the Earl's territory again. The surrounding farmers, and even farmers who came from far away, all hoped to contribute to the count's construction of the castle and just take care of the food.

Rumors began to spread in the Allgäu mountains that Count de Port was a magical man, and the seven farmers who had participated in the battle at night became heroes among the villagers. However, no matter when and on whatever occasion these seven farmers saw Duke Sheep, they would immediately bow their hands and show respect.

They always say that fighting is not tiring, but hanging those corpses makes people very tired.

With more people, anything can be done easily. The castle is being built very quickly, and the cultivated land under the hillside is also being cultivated at the same time.

The autumn harvest was basically over. Yang Yi decided to go back to Porto and then move his family here. He felt that he and Deport were destined, so he would take Behaiya here to live for a few years first.

Along the way, Sheep was as happy as an arrow. He figured that Behaiya should have collected all the grain and taxes for the autumn, and had already exchanged them for silver coins, because there were not enough gold coins. The broken manor has probably been sold and is just waiting for him to move out immediately when he returns.

Behaiya is really capable.

Thinking of how Behaiya would always stay entangled in bed all day long when she returned home from a long trip, Yang Yi felt hot in her heart, and the whip made Ma want to cry.

As soon as he entered the door, Yang Yi was dumbfounded. The room was as empty as if no one had ever lived there. The tables, chairs, benches, pots and pans were all gone, and not even a thread was left.

Behaiya is gone too.

The cellar where the money was hidden was as clean as a dog's lick.

Yang Yi firmly believed that he was hallucinating. Either everything in front of him now was an hallucination, or the life he had lived here with Behaiya in the past nine years was an hallucination.

You simply can't imagine that the home you have lived in for many years is now so empty that you can hear the echo of breathing.

The farmer who appeared in front of Yang Yi tremblingly with his baggage solved the puzzle for him. It was Alonso who had always been close to him among the farmers who belonged to him.

"Sold, everything is sold. Madam sold everything she could. She sold all the slates at the door of the hut. She also sold the manor to the clan in the town. Your Excellency, Madam took the money and ran away."

Alonso handed the baggage to Yang Yi. "Sir, Madam asked me to transfer your personal belongings to you. It was originally a jujube box. Madam thought about it, wrapped it in furoshiki, and then sold the box."

"My lord, the lady ran away. She took all the money and ran away."

Yang Yi was messy in the wind for a long time.

In the baggage, there are the memorial tablets of Lao Yuan, Lao Zhangtou, and Chen Tuan, the human skin mask given by Li Xiaoyao, Zorro's mask, and some clean pants with a hole in them. Anyway, they are all things that cannot be sold. s things.

Don't even think about money, not a single copper was left.

Behaiya can't write the popular script of the Kingdom of Leon, and can only keep simple accounts. Listening to Alonso's report, Behaiya believed that Yang Yi did not cherish money and spent it frivolously. Instead of running away, she wanted to take away Yang Yi's money and keep it for him.

At this moment, Yang Yi not only got to know the woman Behaiya again, but also got to know the world again.

It’s not that you live long enough to see everything.

.

After just three days of searching around Porto and finding nothing, Yang Yi gave up. He actually didn't care about the gold coins and money, but he was a little reluctant to let go of the woman Behaiya.

Let it go, since she is so obsessed with money, just give it all to her.

Yang Yi made some calculations and found that Behaiya took away at least seven or eight thousand gold coins. This money was enough for her to live a life of debauchery, provided she was willing to spend it. It is also enough for her to find a decent man, as long as she is willing to find it.

Yang Yi didn't worry much about Behaiya's safety. After playing and practicing swordplay with him for nine years, Behaiya was no longer the woman who was casually tied into a pig. The 'Zorro brothers' were nailed to the tree that year, and the sextuplets would not be enough for Behaiya to stab them with a sword.

Besides, what’s the use of worrying when everyone is running away?

Turning the horse's head, the sheep ran straight to the Allgäu Mountains in central Europe. He was now penniless and had to go to Deporte's place for food.
