Great Nobleman

When the banquet was over, Brand and others returned to Flower Bay.

The moon had already passed the courtyard.

After saying goodbye to others and returning to the main building of the castle.

In the exquisitely decorated bedroom, Celine, wearing a lavender nightgown, was still eating snacks, sitting on the sofa and watching the stage opera being played on the empty screen with relish.

I don’t know which noble in the empire first came up with this idea.

Recently, several paid "entertainment channels" have been opened on the empty screen!

The nobles who own the empty screen can enjoy the operas and dances of the theaters in the empire and various interesting magic images without leaving home.

Brand also heard that many nobles have already invested, jointly operated, obtained more materials, and seemed to have gained a large amount of magic gold coins.

At this time, Brand took Catherine into the room.

Celine also immediately shifted her gaze, put down her snacks, and lazily stood up to greet them:

"You are finally back, I am a little sleepy!"

After holding his beloved sister Celine in his arms, Brand smiled and said:

"Sister Celine, why don't you go to sleep first?"

Celine joked:

"Who knows if you two will wake me up in the middle of the night?"

Hearing this, Catherine leaned against Brand and softly retorted:

"I think sister Celine obviously can't sleep because she misses the young master, what's there to be embarrassed about?"

As soon as these words came out, the two ladies clearly felt that the strength of the palms on their waists increased a little.

There was a sense of eagerness and "reminder".

Seeing this, Celine stopped playing with Catherine and said unnaturally:

"You should take a shower first. The smell of alcohol will affect our sleep."

Hearing this, Catherine's eyes wandered and said:

"Sister Celine also smells of snacks and desserts, and she also needs to take a shower!"

Up to this point, the two ladies blushed and said nothing more.

Because Brand had already taken them to the bathroom...

...

The next morning, on the terrace of the main building of Morning Flower Castle.

When Brand was having a meal with Rowling's service.

Chris, Melcher, and Sisalie came over together.

Seeing this, Brand also put down the tableware temporarily.

He handed a list and two magic pockets to the three ladies and explained:

"These are the harvest from last night's banquet.

The more precious materials, ancient books, and inheritances are all in the magic pockets.

Take some time to sort them out and put them in the library and treasure room of our North Holland family.

Someone will send the things that are inconvenient to transport later, remember to check and receive them.

In addition, I have lent out some loans, Chris, remember to have someone enter the account."

After checking, Hisali was a little surprised:

"There are a lot of good things in these kingdoms! There are so many knight secrets?"

Melcher shook his head and said:

"My side is just average, most of them are It's just some inheritance at the level of formal mages.

Although the types are relatively rare, the effects are relatively limited.

However, the various materials are quite good. "

Chris was a little curious:

"Louise and the others borrowed so many magic gold coins from the Lord? Aren't you afraid that you can't pay it back?"

Brand picked up the tableware and explained:

"Because the war situation in the northern countries of the Human Alliance is not very good, there are still many good things from various countries.

As for the issue of borrowing, as long as they manage the maritime trade well, the more they borrow now, the more they will earn in the future.

This is not a bad thing for them. "

Hearing such a speech, Chris couldn't help but feel a little meaningful.

-In an ideal situation, Brand's words are of course correct, but that is an ideal situation!

If Louise and others fail to use the borrowed magic gold coins to quickly increase their ability to make money, or suffer some unexpected losses.

They are very likely to fall into debt!

Of course, Chris also knows: Brand has no bad intentions.

——Her dear lord just wanted to make the net income column of the financial statements of Morning Flower Territory bigger every month!

Although her heart was as clear as a mirror, Chris was also considerate and did not reveal it.

She turned to ask about the situation of the banquet last night.

In response, while continuing to enjoy breakfast, Brand also began to talk about the various news he learned from the banquet last night.

These included Flora's invitation to them to help in the war, and the conflict between the Kingdom of Mosal and the Bruns Empire.

After listening for a while,

Chris said curiously:

"Since Ms. Flora has investigated our information in advance and wants to invite us to help in the war.

Then the exchange conditions she offers should be unusual, right?"

Brand nodded and said:

"It is indeed unusual, and it should involve some secrets.

Because I signed a confidentiality agreement, I can't reveal it.

Of course, no matter what, what we need most at the moment is steady development.

I am not going to participate in such a time-consuming thing, even if the benefits are huge."

After thinking for a moment, Chris said:

"When the war situation deteriorates further, the Kingdom of Mosal may lower the conditions.

I think the lord may pay attention to the war situation in the Kingdom of Mosal."

Brand waved his hand and said:

"We'll talk about it later. The Kingdom of Mosal shouldn't be so easily invaded by orcs going south."

...

Five days later, the Elf Forest merchant group officially ended its second trade visit to the Kaya Empire.

Elf ships left the port of the Kaya Empire one after another, joined each other, and headed east.

Because the Kaya Empire was also ready to take this opportunity to visit and trade with the Elf Forest.

So many imperial warships and merchant ships were also on the list!

This morning, at the dock of Morning Flower Port.

[Golden Wheat Field] lowered the side of the ship.

Many people began to board the ship and take their positions.

At a corner of the dock, Brand said to Yersin:

"If you encounter any trouble, you can go to Grandpa Ernst, and please help me take care of the business staff of Free Iris!"

Yersin smiled and nodded:

"I know, don't worry.

Then Lolaya and I will leave first, and we will bring you gifts when we come back!"

Master Holland waved his hand and said:

"The gift doesn't matter, just don't slack off in your practice and study.

I will check it carefully later, and you should be mentally prepared."

Hearing this, the smile on Yersin's face disappeared a lot.

Of course, considering that he will have a period of freedom next.

After carrying the master on his back, the arc of his mouth corners quickly began to expand again!

After bidding farewell to Yersin, Brand immediately began to bid farewell to the other ladies who were also about to leave:

"I will have someone look after your territory for you, this time it's free!"

Shalan nodded and said:

"Thank you, Mr. Brand, I will definitely repay the debt as soon as I come back!"

Madeline smiled and said:

"Me too, but Louise seems to have borrowed too much, maybe she still can't pay it back after this time?"

As she said this, Madeline cast a teasing look at Louise.

Seeing this, Louise was helpless, but she also promised firmly:

"It may not be possible to repay all, but it is still okay to repay part of it. Mr. Brand can look forward to it!"

Hearing this, Brand, who didn't want them to pay back the money at all, shook his head and said:

"It's just a small amount of money, don't worry.

While you are busy talking about business, don't forget to appreciate the beauty of the Elf Forest.

There are many beautiful places there, you must not miss it!"

After some instructions, Louise and the other two quickly said goodbye to the people who saw them off at the dock, and started to board the ship with their respective entourage.

Wait until all passengers are ready to board the ship.

The leaders of this fleet, Cheshire and Robert, two masters, stood on the side of the ship and waved goodbye to them.

The next moment, the gangway was stored and the ship pulled anchor.

Accompanied by a long whistle.

The [Golden Wheat Field] loaded with cargo and passengers set sail.

Twelve [Trial Small Sea Ships] made by the Morning Flower Port Dock and strengthened also followed!

——The next time I want to meet Yersin and others, it will probably be three months later!

Of course, Brand did not have any special emotions.

After all, this is just a small matter.

In contrast, Brand is more concerned about a big event happening today.

After returning to the study in the main building of Morning Flower Castle, he turned on the air screen and connected to the [Imperial War Intelligence Room Channel] that the Empire had opened again.

Soon, a piece of intelligence released not long ago caught Brand's attention.

——The north gate of [Heavy Rock Castle] has been breached by the orc army!

[Heavy Rock Castle] is the largest and most solid fortress in the entire northern defense line of the Kingdom of Mosal.

The Northern Legion of the Kingdom of Mosal has deployed the most troops here!

Once this fortress falls, it can basically be declared that the time for the complete fall of the entire northern defense line of the Kingdom of Mosal has entered the final countdown!

And the reinforcements of their Kaya Empire have only left the country for a few days.

——It will take at least a week for the fastest vanguard to reach the southern border of the Kingdom of Mosal!

When Brand was secretly thinking whether Chris knew something else, so she asked him to pay attention to the war situation five days ago.

On the empty screen in front of him, another piece of information was refreshed:

[Heavy Rock Castle] A large area of ​​the northern area was lost, and the defenders have begun to evacuate in an orderly manner!
