Journey to Infinity from the Witcher

Three days later.

"The river is very good, and the woods over there are also quite big."

"Geralt, this place is really nice..."

Gordon stood on horseback by a sparkling river, turned around and shouted loudly to a few people riding horses not far away.

"This river is indeed very good. When the time comes, a big waterwheel will be built there."

"That piece of land can be reclaimed and planted into crops such as corn and wheat fields, and water can be diverted for irrigation by water trucks..."

Eveni came over on horseback, looked around, and said.

"I have visited several places, and this one is the best..."

Tesili also smiled.

Obviously, not only Gordon Yevni took a fancy to this land, but she also took a fancy to it.

"It's indeed very good, but this piece of land costs a full 2,200 gold coins, which is a full 700 gold coins more expensive than the piece of land we saw before..."

"It's too expensive..."

Geralt looked at the river in front of him and smiled bitterly.

He didn't know that this piece of land was the best of the five pieces of land in Hoya Town.

It's just the same, the best price is the most expensive.

"These guys have good eyesight, Mr. Geralt. This land is indeed the best piece of land left around the town."

"As long as you buy this land, the stretch of the Blue Rain River will be under your jurisdiction, Mr. Geralt."

"And that forest belongs entirely to Mr. Geralt."

"Besides, Mr. Geralt, you must know that this land is only half an hour away from the town."

"The most important thing is that I have a piece of news for you, sir. As long as you buy this piece of land, and with your reputation and a small sum of money, you can become an honorary baron of Hoya Town."

"I don't need to say more about what the honorary baron represents..."

"Although this land is expensive, it has enough benefits. How about it, Mr. Geralt should think about it carefully."

At this time, a staff member sent by the Hoya Town Hall, a middle-aged thin man came over on horseback and said slowly with a smile.

"Honorary Baron..."

After the middle-aged thin man finished speaking, Gordon and Xinalea didn't think anything of it.

Yevni and Tesili looked a little strange.

Although honorary baron is only the lowest title among nobles in the Kingdom of Saint Fidel, or even in the entire northern countries, it is still the kind of title that can be purchased with just money.

But it’s not something that ordinary people can have.

Even if you have money, you must also have certain qualifications. This qualification is reputation. Only with a reputation recognized by the local city hall can you be qualified to purchase an honorary baron.

Otherwise, it’s useless even if you have money. After all, no matter how rich a businessman is, how can he get through the city hall?

At this time, the five Geralt Gordons, Evne Xinarea, etc. all have this qualification, because they killed the necromancer, saved the town of Kus, saved the Kingdom of Saint Fidel, and even saved the northern countries.

The hero of the world.

Tesili didn't.

"Honorary Baron of Hoya..."

Geralt looked at the Blue Rain River and murmured.

If he continues his adventurous journey, the honorary baron of Hoya Town will really be of little use to him.

Because the title of baron has the word "honorary" in front of it, it means that it can only be valid within the town of Hoya, and will be useless outside the town.

But he plans to buy a manor in the small town of Hoya to retire in the future, and will basically stay here forever.

This title of baron is very useful.

Within the scope of the town, not only would ordinary troubles not come to him at all, but he could also mobilize the ability of the town guards when necessary, which was a great weapon.

Although it will cost you some money afterwards, it is definitely a status symbol.

It can be said that as long as Geralt does not commit murder and arson in the town of Hoya in the future, it will not be a problem at all if a few people are injured in ordinary conflicts.

Even if you get into trouble, you only need to spend a small amount of money and you will be fine.

This is the privileged class.

"Who is the honorary baron?"

Gordon softly asked Yevni next to him. He was only a low-level lackey of the Eternal Fire Sect in his previous life, and he didn't know much about these things.

Yevni quickly whispered into Gordon's ear, and Gordon immediately understood.

"Geralt, this place is great, this is it!"

Gordon's eyes brightened, and he immediately rode up to Geralt's side and spoke in a deep voice.

He could clearly see that Geralt was tempted, and his hesitation was obviously just because of the price.

From the first day he arrived in the small town of Hoya, Geralt was in a hurry and immediately took a few people to see the land.

Gordon knew that Geralt's budget this time was at most 1,500 gold coins, including the 500 gold coins that Gordon borrowed.

Buying a manor is not just about spending money on the land. It also requires a lot of money for decoration and construction.

Currently, this land requires 2,200 gold coins, which is obviously significantly beyond the budget.

"Of course I know, it's just..."

Geralt turned his head and shook his head and smiled.

"And me, I don't plan to buy a manor for retirement now. It's useless to have so much money on me. I'll just leave it with you first, and you'll have to pay it back later!"

Gordon smiled.

"Okay, then I'm welcome!"

Geralt finally nodded.

"That's what I said, when have you ever been polite..."

Gordon rolled his eyes.

"hey-hey..."

Geralt giggled. With his personality, it was too difficult for him to take the initiative to borrow money.

"What are you two muttering about?"

At this time, Yevnetsili and the others apparently discovered the whispers between Gordon and Geralt, and immediately drove their horses over with a smile.

Gordon spoke up.

Yevni looked at Geralt and asked, "Are you sure?"

Geralt nodded: "Of course, this is it!"

Eveni immediately smiled: "Then we can negotiate the price with the other party..."

"When it comes to price, don't they have a fixed price? They won't give you a second price when it comes to the price?"

Gordon frowned and said, in the past few days, he has gained some experience in buying manors.

"The price is killer, but some major accidents have to be factored in. Look there!"

Eveni said, pointing to the Blue Rain River.

Several people immediately looked over and saw several clear footprints on the river not far away, extending all the way into the river.

If you look closely, the footprints are very similar to adult footprints, but they are in the shape of webbed feet.

"Those are the footprints of the water ghost!"

As a veteran demon hunter, Geralt quickly noticed something strange.

He was anxious about the price before and had no intention of observing it carefully. When Eveni reminded him, he immediately realized something was wrong.

Only then did Gordon and the others react.

Regarding the water ghost, Gordon had only seen it in the Monster Manual, and heard Geralt say that he had never seen the true appearance of the water ghost.

"Yes, I think we can discuss this news with the other party carefully, and we can definitely negotiate a lot on the price."

Yevni whispered.

"Indeed, most people are very afraid of water ghosts..."

Geralt nodded, turned around and walked towards the middle-aged, thin man in the city hall.

night.

Hoya Town, inside the Black Widow Tavern.

The wine table was filled with all kinds of fragrant dishes, and Gordon Geralt, Xina Traya was sitting around the wine table.

"Hurry up, it's just the two of you..."

Not far away, Yevney and Tesili were walking slowly.

"What are you two doing? It's been taking you so long. Sit down quickly and raise a toast..."

Geralt stood up happily and greeted him. He mentioned that the manor worth 2,200 gold coins was worth 1,800 gold coins. This was a rare and great achievement that he could brag about for the rest of his life.

"You guys drink, I won't be able to drink for a long time..."

Yevni pushed away the tall beer glass full of hops in front of her, shook her head and smiled, the sincere smile on her face couldn't be hidden at all.

"What's wrong?"

"Ye Fenni really can't drink it because she is pregnant..."

Before Yevni could speak, Tesili couldn't help but speak.

"Pregnant?"

"Evonne is pregnant?"

"Sister, are you pregnant?

Faced with the shock of several people, Eveni stretched out her hand to caress her abdomen and nodded happily: "Yes."
