Release that Witch

......

When all five asked about it, Roland was relieved.

He leaned back in his chair, and the nightingale took the initiative to walk behind his back, stretching his hands and pressing his shoulders.

It took only one day from defeating the Duke to entering the city to occupy the Lord's Castle.

Things are going better than he thought. When the Duke died, most people chose to surrender. The mercenaries went back to the ground and squatted on the ground, expressing their willingness to serve for the prince.

Then the mercenary guards surrendered to the knight and the nobility. The first army guarded the mercenaries, and a group of people marched toward the east in a mighty way, and arrived at the long song fortress at 3 pm that day. After seeing the head of the Duke of Ryan and the gang of the captured princes, the guards who guarded the gates opened the gates and greeted the four princes into the city.

Roland did not summon all the nobles in the city in a big way, and declared the ownership of the city to them, but the first time to go to the Lord's Castle.

The castle is at the highest point in the central part of the fortress, like a city in the city. When entering the castle area, small-scale battles broke out. After the night smashed the gates of the garden with explosives, more than 20 guards who did not follow the Duke’s expedition tried to stop Roland from entering and were killed by the first army. The other party used handcuffs when they resisted. Five of the players were injured, two of them were seriously injured. Fortunately, Nana Va, who was in the army, immediately cured them.

Ten other guards wanted to sneak away from the back door of the castle with the Duke’s family. They were discovered by lightning in the air and immediately rounded up. The Duke’s wife and the two sons were shackled until this time, and they were still in the dark, knowing nothing about the news of the Duke’s defeat.

After controlling the Lord's Castle, the first army of Bianyan Town immediately took over the defense of the Castle District. It must be said that the castle of the Duke of Ryan is three or four times larger than the town of Bianbu, and the shape is much more magnificent. The six towers form the outline of its regular hexagon, and the main tower in the middle is almost five stories high. It is a rare high-rise building in this era. The residential warehouses in the garden are well-equipped, and there are even private prisons in the basement of the castle.

He put the valuable prisoners and the family of the Duke into the cell, the civilians were all disbanded, and the mercenaries confiscated the weapons and placed them in the idle houses of the garden in batches. At the same time, several leaders were selected to give high salaries, so that they could take care of themselves in the eyes of Roland. The North Slope Mine is the best destination for these speculators, but he still has more important things to do.

That is the most important loot after the battle, commonly known as the body.

Roland turned the castle up and down with a witch, and even the stone of the gods that was placed in the vault and the secret room did not let go. The search was smooth and the results were simply touching. The two large golden dragons found in the basement warehouse are conservatively estimated to have as many as 10,000. The nightingale found dozens of eye-sized gems in the dark cells of the bedroom, and echoes found a dark room behind the fireplace. After entering the secret room, not only are all kinds of gold crafts, such as scepters, crowns, etc., but also a lot of dazzling jewellery, which are hung on the wooden frame of the wall.

This is the financial power of a duke!

Roland looked at this huge fortune, and then thought about the ore revenue of less than 500 Jinlong in the autumn and winter seasons of Bianyan Town. The temptation of plunder is here. If it is not from a highly developed industrial society, he will probably be addicted to it.

However, the feelings are sentimental, these things still have to be accepted. In the foreseeable future, the labor force in Bianyan Town will increase substantially, and before the territorial agriculture has developed, he needs a large sum of money to import food from other places.

So the hummingbird lightened a box of treasures, and was escorted by the iron axe and the prince's escort. The trophy was brought back to the castle by the township. Considering the time it takes to enchant a large item, it takes about three days to complete the shipment.

This is the reason why Roland decided not to ask for Golden Dragon as a ransom the next day. Eating a duke has benefited him a lot, and now he needs more living people and livestock.

"His Royal Highness, are you really only here for a week?" asked the night.

"What's wrong?" Roland closed his eyes and enjoyed the numbness from his shoulder.

“Is this the largest city in the West?” she whispered. “You don’t want to stay in this more prosperous place than in Bianbu Town?”

"The long song fortress is intricate and not suitable for what I want to do. Everything is still good. If you want to make changes, the resistance will only grow bigger and bigger, and I can’t rude them now. And eradicate." Roland smiled. "Of course, the most important thing is that the people here are deeply influenced by the church and it is difficult to accept you in the short term. I have said that I hope the witch can walk freely on the street. This has been done."

“Well,” said the nightingale, “you have fulfilled your promise.”

*******************

On the third day, Pei Luo hurriedly brought his list, and Roland received him in the hall as usual.

"His Royal Highness, I have chosen."

"I look." Roland took the list. Similar to what was envisioned before, the headline on the list is a serf with a score of 2, about 800 people, a hundred cows and three hundred sheep share a total of 900 points, and the rest are all kinds of craftsmen.

"His Royal Highness, is that okay?"

"Of course, just get enough for three thousand points." Roland returned the list to Pedro. "When can you collect these people and supplies?"

"Today is OK, this is my arrangement based on the property and the people on the honeysuckle territory. But if you want to bring them back to Bianbu Town, it may take about half a month."

"This is done by yourself," Roland tapped the desk. "You should have experience in organizing caravans?"

"Yes, Your Highness." Pedro hesitated. "Then my father..."

"You can take him back today," the prince laughed, and handed him a parchment roll. "If you feel that there is no problem, sign it and press the handprint."

"This is the ... agency contract?" Pei opened the eyes and the voice became excited. "Are you promised to delegate the agency to the honeysuckle family? Please wait a moment." He flattened the paper roll and began to carefully Read the contract.

The prudence shown by the other party made Roland satisfied and nodded as a collaborator. Paying attention to the contract is the most basic requirement.

After a few moments, Pei Luo looked up. "The above content is basically the same as what you told me yesterday, just a little..." He pointed to the end of the contract. "His Royal Highness, shouldn't I write my father's name here? He is the honeysuckle. The count is also the representative of the family."

Roland smiled. "Of course not. It is you, not your father, who discusses the agent with me. So, at the end of the contract, it is natural to write your name."

Pei Luo stayed for a moment, and some did not believe it: "His Royal Highness, do you mean let me come"

"Yes, you will replace the Duke's position and host the long song fortress for me." Roland nodded. "If the contract is executed smoothly, you can continue to own the city after I become a king." Don't take a smile, "But if you break the contract, you will be able to score a long song fortress like the Duke, and you can do it for the second time. Good work, Mr. Ambassador." (To be continued.)
