In Hundred Leaf City, Crick·Rod Ente received the invitation from Velin to visit. He was a little confused, but still ordered people to prepare and entertain the other party.
Eight days ago, he had received the military order from the headquarters. Starting half a month ago, he had been under the command of Angus, the commander of the Aix Legion.
Two days later, Crick led a group of subordinates and general Southern Army to wait at the gate of the city.
Velin asked the troops to stop a few meters away, and led Endek and Kyle forward, bowing slightly and smiling.
"This is your first visit. Don't mind, Mr. Crick."
"Welcome, General Velin." Crick·Rod Ente returned the gift.
"General, this is a very affectionate title."
"Please come in."
At the invitation of Creek, Weilin and his party entered Yecheng.
At night, a Banquet and City Lord's Mansion event was held. Many Southern Army generals wore formal attires and participated in the Banquet event, and later appeared in front of the boss's son.
For this social interaction, Velin was very handy and got to know some Southern Army aristocratic children who wanted to make progress. Many of them wanted to offer their wealth and only asked Velin to say a few more words to them in front of his own father.
Regarding this corrupt act, Velin refused righteously, but promised to help them and put in a few kind words in front of his own parents.
As a result, Velin's reputation and Hundred Leaf City Southern Army's reputation rose rapidly in the hearts of the noble children.
"The rumors Fire Leaf City are spreading must be the work of traitors who think Northern Army." A nobleman said to his friend in a medium voice.
"I also think so. How could a noble person like Lord Velin do such a thing that damages his reputation? It must be those traitors who slandered him. These people should be sent to the stake. Goddess of Life should repent of his sins." The noble nobles echoed.
Crick picked up a glass of wine and heard everyone talking. He looked calm on the surface, but secretly he was surprised.
Just as he thought, those Direct Lineage children of the great nobles were not as simple as they seemed on the surface. With a few tricks, they could change a romantic relationship.
By comparison, he found that the person he was loyal to, Sigrid Rhodes Ente, also had many similarities.
"No, you can't have such delusional thoughts. This is disrespectful to adults." Crick shook his head and threw these sinful thoughts out of his mind.
After Banquet ended, Velin visited Crick alone.
"General Velin, please take a seat." Crick invited the other party to take a seat, asked the attendants to serve tea, and then went out to guard and not let anyone in.
Velin picked up the tea cup and took a sip, then said, "Your Excellency Crick, I have a business to discuss with you."
"Please make it clear, general." Unknowingly, Crick had put himself in a lower position, serving the other party like a subordinate.
"Count of Hundred Leaf is begging me, hoping to get back the ownership of Hundred Leaf Territory." Velin observed the changes in the other person's facial expressions and took his time. Manchu said, "There are two other Count, who border Hundred Leaf Territory, and the troops stationed there are all affiliated with the Rodenert Legion, and they are all acquainted with you."
"For every territory they take back, they are willing to pay a ransom worth thirty thousand Gold Coin. I only take five hundred thousand Gold Coin as the introduction fee, and the other two five hundred thousand Gold Coin will be given to you."
"General Velin, what you said is true." When Klek heard the amount of money, he stood up suddenly, his eyes shining, staring at Velin.
"Of course, Klek, how do you choose?" Velin looked at the other party with a smile.
Klek realized that he had lost his temper, sat down again, and said apologetically, "I am willing to do this deal, but I hope you will not tell the garrison generals in the other two cities, and let us negotiate with them."
"Of course. Since I came to see the general, I naturally took a fancy to the general's character." Velin opened his eyes and told lies. Although he only got Klek's information halfway, it didn't stop him from touting the other party.
If it were a beggar who said this, Klek would definitely be dismissive of it. As the heir of Eagle Count, what he said was very useful to him.
After chatting for a few more words, Velin said goodbye and left. Klek personally delivered it to the City Lord's Mansion and waited until the other party was far away before returning to the City Lord's Mansion.
In Carriage, Velin told Kyle what happened, leaving the other party stunned.
"Sir, you took half of it, and the other party is so grateful. Isn't this a bit..."
"Hahaha, this is just a means. I believe Klek will also take part of it when negotiating with the other two people." Velin looked at Kyle's expression and explained with a smile, "If you beat those three Count and dare to talk nonsense, there must be a place for the three of them at the front line."
"Yes." Kyle nodded and replied.
Velin always laments that by seizing the power and relying on the mountains, under the general trend, as long as you say a few words, you can harvest countless wealth.
I remember that when I left Eagle Territory to develop, my father only gave me wealth worth 300,000 Gold Coin.
The family rules specified by the first generation Eagle Count: pampering children is like killing children. A small amount of money and wealth can stimulate the children's desire to explore. Giving too much money and materials will make them lazy and unenterprising.
Over the years, Ex Family has also experienced ancestors who failed in development and lost their lives.
As long as someone dies in the hands of monsters or natural disasters during the development process, the family will only send people to collect the bones and ignore them.
If someone is falsely accused and dies in a conspiracy, the family will do their best to avenge him.
The most typical one is Hax Family. Even though the other party is the Marquis family, Ex Family has been hostile to the other party for hundreds of years in order to take revenge.
With this example in front of me, in the Isia Kingdom, most families will be friendly to the Ex Family and Pioneer and try to avoid conflicts.
Even if there is a misunderstanding, it will be resolved in the shortest possible time to avoid retaliation from the other party.
A few years ago, the cursed mask incident was used as a trigger, and the family was behind it, and the other party was finally brought down. The whole family was placed under house arrest in Royal Capital, and the foundation was dug. If they want to revive in the future, it will be impossible unless Ex Family is destroyed.
In the next few days, Velin took his close enemies on a tour in Baiye City.
"Cousin Klek, thank you for giving us brothers this opportunity to make a fortune." The two bald heads stood up and saluted Klek, their voices full of gratitude.
"We are still fighting. What do our descendants do for a living? It's not status and wealth." Klek said kindly with a smile on his face.
When the elder brother saw this, he was very moved. "I think one million Gold Coin is too much wealth. How about we give it up to one hundred thousand."
