Great Nobleman

Two days later in the afternoon.

[Golden Wheat Field] left Flower Bay and headed quickly towards Port Royal.

When halfway through the journey, the position of the side of the first deck.

Several elders happily ran over and gathered around a huge harpoon crossbow for quick debugging.

Not long after, waiting for the bed crossbow to be debugged.

They quickly cocked their arrows and took aim.

Accompanied by a "bang" explosion!

The huge crossbow arrow with a thick chain attached to its tail pierced out instantly!

Huge splashes of water exploded in the distance on the sea surface, and they flew under the water at high speeds without slowing down, pulling out long lines!

Finally, he hit a huge sea snake-like intermediate monster that had been following around the [Golden Wheat Field]!

When the force of the harpoon crossbow relaxed, Mr. Holland quickly activated the recovery device of the harpoon crossbow.

The rune array built into the huge bed crossbow immediately began to operate rapidly.

The originally closed barbs on the harpoon crossbow arrow suddenly opened, and the chain connecting the crossbow arrow also began to retract!

Waiting for the chain to gradually straighten, under the huge pulling force.

The crossbow's barb also tightly grasped the giant sea snake, and was dragged forward by the "Golden Wheat Field" that continued to advance.

While the ship was tilting slightly, under the gaze of everyone:

A huge sea snake covered in gray and white bone spurs was struggling and roaring crazily!

Being dragged by the chain, long red and white waves were pulled out on the sea surface and kept approaching them!

From time to time, sharp bone spurs shot out towards the [Golden Wheat Field], and finally splashed some inconspicuous ripples on the transparent protective barrier!

——This is a mid-level monster called [Bone-Spur Sea Serpent], which is good at long-range strikes!

At this moment, the harpoon crossbow arrow that penetrated its body was continuously emitting biting frost elements, intending to freeze it!

But looking at its energetic appearance, it's obvious that it won't have much effect for a while.

Watching this guy being dragged closer and closer to them by chains.

After observing carefully for a while, Mr. Mesa suddenly said loudly:

“Lennart, it’s almost done!

Stop the winch before it enters the ship's boundary!

So as not to ruin the decoration of our ship in a while! "

Mr. Robert also spoke:

"Go to the stern of the ship, let's use the crossbow there to kill it first!"

At this time, he woke up from his nap because of the huge movement.

Brand, who walked out of the cabin and looked around for a while, frowned and said:

"It's just an intermediate-level monster. Wouldn't it be better to pull it over and use its absolute power to kill it directly?"

After turning around to see the sleepy Brand who was woken up by them.

The unapologetic Lord Romine responded with a smile:

"It's rare for a monster to take the initiative to provoke!

There are so many weapons on the ship, wouldn't it be a pity not to use them? "

After saying this, everyone else started to trot towards the stern of the ship.

Mr. Romien also quickly followed and said loudly:

"Leave me a bed crossbow!"

Wait until the elders are out of sight and head to the stern of the ship.

Catherine also walked out of the cabin behind Brand with some sleepiness.

After looking up at the sky, she frowned and said:

"Master, the sun is so bright outside!"

After hearing this, Brand took Catherine's arm and walked towards the observation cabin on the first floor.

Tonight, there is a dinner party in Port Royal for the northern nations of the Human Alliance.

With nothing going on, Brand and several senior men were ready to take a look.

Although Port Royal and Flower Bay are not very close.

But at the speed at which the [Golden Wheat Field] was traveling at full speed, it would only take a few hours.

It just so happened that Brand also wanted to see the Empire's Royal Port.

After arriving at the observation cabin on the first floor.

Looking at Shallan, Madeleine and Louise who were talking in the corner of the cabin.

Brand smiled and suggested:

"Would you ladies like to play a thrilling and exciting Romine game with us?"

After saying these words, he attracted the attention of the three ladies.

Brand gradually found with some confusion that the expressions of these three ladies seemed a little bit... awkward?

After a while.

The playing field is spread out on a wide tabletop.

Everyone carries out preliminary operations based on their own basic market.

While taking action on the chessboard.

Under the look of the other two ladies.

Louise braced herself, stumbling and said to Brand:

"Mr. Brand, the magic gold coins we owe you... I'm afraid we won't be able to pay them back until later.

Our funds are a little... tight right now! "

As soon as he finished speaking, Brand looked confused.

Madeleine took over the conversation and explained in detail with some embarrassment:

"Mr. Brand, didn't some uncles auction the cabin lease rights of the [Golden Wheatfield] before?

Because the bidding was so fierce, Shallan, Louise, and I only bid for two cabins.

As a result, our expenses were much higher than expected.

This caused some difficulties in the turnover of our funds for a while. "

Shallan also added:

“We participated in this banquet because we were actually preparing to sell some unused military equipment to raise funds.

However, we have also heard that those countries seem to be preparing to use arrears to purchase supplies and war equipment.

The principal and interest will be repaid gradually after the war is over.

If we take into account the various expenses that may be incurred in the next trip to the Elf Forest...

It is probably difficult for us to repay the debt according to the original plan. "

Listening to Sharan talking about the original "repayment plan".

Brand gradually recalled the last time he traded with the elves.

These three ladies seemed to be planning to ask him to repay the debt after selling the elves' goods?

At that time, Brand was still thinking about finding a way to shirk it and let them continue to owe it, while also continuing to repay the interest every month!

Now it seems that he can save trouble?

Thinking of this, Brand smiled and said:

"I think it's a big deal. Since your funds are tight now, you can repay the principal when the funds are sufficient.

Our Morning Flower Territory has sufficient funds at present, so you don't have to worry!"

After saying this, Brand had another idea and said thoughtfully:

"I have also been to the Elf Forest. Each elf branch there has unique and various products.

And the cost of the teleportation array is relatively cheap. At that time, you can purchase goods from various places and then transport them back for sale.

If you are short of money, would you like to borrow some more from me?

In this way, you may be able to carefully select and purchase some high-profit items in the Elf Forest.

For example, various life magic products unique to the Elf Forest? "

As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere on the scene quickly became a little subtle.

-Obviously, they just wanted to postpone the repayment, so why did the topic turn to continuing to borrow money?

After a while of silence, Louise, who had already borrowed a lot of magic gold coins, hesitated and said:

"If there are more magic gold coins, we may indeed be able to buy more high-profit goods in the Elf Forest.

But..."

Brand interrupted:

"Isn't this enough?

A lot of magic gold coins are needed to develop the territory!

You should seize every opportunity to earn more wealth now.

This is the only way to develop the territory faster and better!"

Shalan hesitated and said:

"But we have already borrowed a lot of magic gold coins. If we borrow more, there will always be some..."

Brand waved his hand and interrupted again:

"This is not a problem. I am not in a hurry, why are you in a hurry?

I believe in your credibility! "

Madeline said helplessly:

"We have borrowed too much money, and we are under great pressure!"

Brand smiled and said:

"Then do your best. As a lord, this is your responsibility!"

Under Brand's ups and downs persuasion.

Louise and the other two gradually suppressed the shyness in their hearts of constantly asking Brand for money!

And secretly swore:

This must be the last time!
