Wow
On the surface of Jinghu Lake, a big pink fish jumped out of the water, then slammed down, causing a large splash.
“This is the Mirror Lake Red Pig.” Earl Merlin stood on the observation deck of the castle, with his hands behind his back, looking at the broken Jing Lake. “A fish unique to Mirror Lake, the adult Jing Lake Red Pig has a small chance of evolving into a fantasy… Beast, the Red Castle has a guard team of fantasy beast knights contracted with the Mirror Lake Red Pig.”
“How do we fight after we contracted a fish fantasy beast?”
“They don’t need to go to the snowfield to fight. Their only mission is to guard the safety of the Red Castle. Of course, they can also follow the river downstream of Mirror Lake to inspect the vast manors and farms directly under the jurisdiction of the Red Castle.” Earl Merlin said, standing on the tea table at the side Sit down.
Then he picked up the warm soup and drank it in a sip: “Russell, why did you refuse to be the assistant to the Minister of Volcanoes?”
“I have my reasons, Grandpa, as you will soon see,” said Russell.
He originally wanted to confess to his grandfather that he was about to become a Black Oil Dragon Knight, but before leaving last night, his father, Baron Roman, specifically warned him, using the survival methods of the Fluorescent Mushroom family, to tell him not to reveal this news to outsiders. .
This is enough for your parents and eldest brother. Don’t tell anyone like your grandpa, aunt, cousin, sister, etc.
“Low-key can last long.” Baron Roman said at the time, “First confirm your identity as the Black Oil Dragon Knight, and then share this glory with everyone. Otherwise, if too many people know about it, you may be in trouble.”
Fortunately, Earl Merlin did not dwell on this issue, but said: “If you don’t want to do it, just don’t do it. I’m not asking you to be the minister of the volcano, just an assistant.”
“Thank you grandpa for your understanding.”
“The Yun Mist series Yulong cigars you brought me are very good.” Earl Merlin said, “I have carefully observed that each cigar is wrapped with an independent tobacco leaf, without any flaws.”
“Each Uryū cigar represents a knight’s life. If it uses crushed leaves, wouldn’t it be an incomplete knight’s life?”
“Very good, this makes me look forward to the Wind and Frost series even more.”
“When I return to the territory, I will have the three hundred boxes of the Wind and Frost series completed as soon as possible.” Russell said, “But Grandpa, I don’t know what to do with the one hundred boxes of the Wind and Frost series given to Grand Duke Kunstein.”
At the mention of Grand Duke Kunstan, Count Merlin’s eyes darkened.
Then he replied easily: “If you want Yulong cigars to sell well, give them to Arnold Lieyang, and let the nobles of the Blazing Torrent Kingdom taste the life of a knight. When the time comes, you can fight for the Shadow Flame Caravan. quota, you will definitely make money selling this.”
Every year, the Shadowflame Grand Duchy conducts trade with the Blazing Torrent Kingdom, but the number of caravans is limited.
“Okay, Grandpa.”
“Plant more tobacco. Selling cigars is more beneficial to the Grand Duchy than selling food or potions.”
Russell nodded to express his understanding.
After this battle, the Shadow Flame Grand Duchy’s vitality was severely damaged, and it will inevitably rely on the help of the Blazing Torrent Kingdom in the future. Since there is something to be desired from others, it is natural to treat them with courtesy. Some of the food and magic medicine from the Grand Duchy must flow into the Kingdom of Blazing Torrent.
Although Longmian Continent is an extraordinary world, there is no difference in the nature of human nature and society.
Those who are weak will be beaten, either plundered or dumped. Fortunately, the dragon of the Shadow Flame Grand Duchy was only seriously injured, so it can still live up to its reputation.
At this time, a servant dressed as a butler came to the viewing platform: “Sir, it’s already three forty, and you have to go to the Council of Elders to preside over a meeting at four o’clock.”
When Russell heard this, he immediately stood up: “Grandpa, I won’t disturb you anymore. I’ll go back first.”
“Well, go ahead and bring a message to your father for me.”
“Please tell me.”
“Bring Ross to the Red Castle to admit his mistake. As the finance minister, you should be conscious and don’t wait for me to say anything.” Earl Merlin said calmly, “If Ross doesn’t come, I will convict him of desertion.”
After leaving Count Merlin’s independent castle, Russell did not delay and returned to Baron Roman’s tower again, waiting until eight o’clock in the evening.
Baron Roman came back alone, and Roland did not follow him.
“Father.”
“It’s Russell, how about we have a drink together, Your Excellency the Black Oil Dragon Knight.” Baron Roman was in a good mood and wanted to tease Russell.
Russell shook his head and said: “No more drinking, father. I’m waiting for you to come back because grandpa asked me to bring you a message.”
“What’s the message?”
“Grandpa asked you to take Mr. Ross to the Red Fort to admit his mistake, otherwise Mr. Ross will be sentenced to desertion.”
As soon as he said this, Baron Roman’s contented expression disappeared. He frowned and paced in the study: “It’s not necessary. Your grandfather presides over the Senate, why should you be so serious… Sir Ross, Ross… it’s just a situation. It’s critical, it’s just a step too late!”
Russell couldn’t say much when it came to the bipedal dragon in his family. After all, this dragon was regarded as a forbidden animal by his father and eldest brother.
He also has his own dragon, so it’s better not to point fingers.
However, Baron Roman took the initiative to ask Russell: “Do you think I should bring Mr. Ross over to admit his mistake?”
“Father, maybe you can go and talk to grandpa.” Russell gave his own suggestion.
“What are you talking about? Your grandfather has a stubborn temper and I can’t say anything to him!” Baron Roman said angrily, “He only cares about his own feathers. As for the affairs of his relatives and family, he doesn’t care at all!”
“Well, grandpa may just put public affairs first before private affairs.” Russell advised.
“Why put public before private? The shadow…dragon has already fallen into slumber. Who will investigate what Mr. Ross has done! Didn’t Mr. Ross hunt down the snow demon, or did he not participate in the war? He has to come and confess, hurt What should I do about Mr. Ross’s self-esteem?”
Baron Roman complained a lot, but he also understood that since Earl Merlin said so, evading would not solve the problem.
He was so angry that he hammered the table and knocked off the corners: “I will bring Mr. Ross over, but it is not Mr. Ross who admits his mistake, but me who will admit his mistake!”
“Father, what do you mean?”
“It was I who asked Mr. Ross not to support… the giant dragon. If the dragon wants to blame it, just blame me. I don’t deserve to be the finance minister.” Baron Roman was determined, “Your Excellency Ross, protect my fluorescent mushroom family for sixty or seventy years.” Year, I can’t let my pride fall to the ground!”
“Father!” Russell felt that after taking a look at Baron Roman, who was in charge of the throne, he suddenly felt that it might not be a bad thing for Earl Merlin to pursue Lord Ross’s desertion.
Lord Rose’s heart knot always needs to be untied, otherwise it will never let anyone ride it.
He smiled and said: “Father, I support your decision. Your Excellency Ross is worthy of us shouldering this wave of blame for it. Without the protection of Your Excellency Ross, the Knights of the Netherlight Valley will suffer heavy losses. This is what we owe it.”
“Yes, we owe it.” Baron Roman himself smiled freely, “So you have to remember something.”
“Father, please speak.”
“The dragon is our partner, but it also has its own pride. We can guide it and tame it. We should never blame it or resent it, because without it, there would be nothing in the Warm Land.” Baron Roman said softly.
