"Boris, did you really go to Storm Territory's place? So, is it true that your butler said that you and Storm Territory, the second son of the competition, formed an offensive and defensive alliance?" Bero couldn't believe it, and then looked Boris up and down, curious as to why he could return intact.

"Well, it's true!" Bero's reaction was normal. If he had heard of any noble going to Storm Territory in the past, he would have had the same expression, so Boris didn't pay attention.

However, the offensive and defensive alliance is related to the secret of White Sugar, so Boris immediately changed the subject, "Bero, tell me, what do you want to do this time Black Rock Territory? In the past, you always liked to play Tulip City!"

Boris wanted to change the topic, but he didn't know that Bero came here just for White Sugar, "Hey, it's not just for White Sugar, Boris, I am your friend, you can't be stingy, you must sell ten cans to me this time!"

"You finished it so quickly? Last time I sold three cans to you, while other nobles only had one can."

"We have finished eating a long time ago. My father, my three younger brothers and sisters, all finished in one go! Boris Do you know what the nobles in Tulip City are talking about White Sugar now?"

"They all say that this White Sugar is simply a gift from God, sweeter than honey, and the white bread it makes is countless times more delicious than before!"

"Now many nobles don't know if they can still buy it in the future, so they have spent two gold coins to buy a can of White Sugar. This time Boris, you will make a fortune. The rise of the Black Rock Family is just around the corner!"

"Two gold coins per jar?" Boris was stunned.

He doesn't go to Tulip City very much now, so he hasn't heard much about White Sugar's follow-up feedback.

However, the last sale of White Sugar went very smoothly, so this result is not unexpected.

On today's trip, he had brought back the second batch of White Sugar. He didn't expect to hear this news.

"Boris, to be honest, your White Sugar is very rare. Don't say that I, Bero, take advantage of you. I am also willing to give you two gold coins for each jar. This time you have to give me ten jars of White Sugar."

"Ten cans? That's too many. I can only give you five cans at most. The price will be based on one gold coin!" Although Boris wants to increase the price, the person in front of him is his friend, and if he really wants to increase the price, he has to negotiate with Nalant, so he can only sell it at the original price.

However, he had an idea in his mind. Maybe he could send a messenger to discuss with Nalant later. The output this year is not much anyway, so it is better to raise the price directly, so that both of them can earn more by then.

"Okay! Five cans are five cans, Boris. It's my Bero honor to meet you as a good friend." Bero beamed, and the toast with White Sugar was really making people drool just thinking about it.

That fluffy and sweet taste is something that honey cannot achieve.

In fact, he had not finished all the cans of White Sugar. Although a lot of them were taken away by his father and siblings, he also had a small amount stored in the manor.

But this time I went to Tulip City and heard that White Sugar has been sought after by the nobles. It would be very honorable for anyone to serve guests with white bread with White Sugar added.

Therefore, he came to Boris non-stop to buy and prepare to store it.

He knows the character of Boris. If there are a lot of White Sugar, they must be sold out at one time and make a big profit. Now it seems that White Sugar is still very rare.

"Hey!" At this moment, Bero's attention finally turned to the carriage behind.

Two of the carriages parked directly in the front yard and were not pulled to the stable to unload their cargo. When the cowhide tarpaulins above were torn off by the guards, he was stunned.

"Boris, this is..."

"This is a trebuchet!" Boris was not prepared to hide this thing. He was ready to publicize it from the beginning. After all, this is a very famous existence.

"You... this... where did you buy it from? The Earl family doesn't sell trebuchets, doesn't it?"

"Hehe, Blackiron Earldom got it, but it was not bought, but given by others!" Boris said with a smile.

"Sent?"

"That's right, didn't I go to Storm Territory this time? I was invaded by nearly a hundred Dark Creature. That Dark Creature is so cruel and evil. The second-level Hellhound is There are three... seven or eight... there are more than ten Second-Tier Headless Knight, well... there is only one third-level Death Knight..." Boris's heart is not beating and his face is not red.

"So many Dark Creature?" Bero is unbelievable.

"There were so many, I was scared at the time! In addition to me and Sir Nalant, there was also the illegitimate son, Baron Quinte."

"The illegitimate son Quinte screamed and ran away in fear when he saw Dark Creature. Seeing this, Nalant and I were originally prepared to fight, but Quinte's escape shook the morale of the army, so we had no choice but to retreat with him!"

"We ran until we were near Quinte Castle. At that time, Quinte entered the castle and closed the door directly. We could only hide not far from Quinte Castle!"

"Dark Creature, as you know, likes to get into the castle first, and finally Quinte Castle was breached!"

"At this critical moment, Sir Nalant and I stepped forward in the spirit of chivalry and rescued him.

"In the end, Quinte gave Nalant a small piece of territory, a Yellow Sprite and a trebuchet in return for saving his life."

"And I am the two trebuchets! In fact, Quinte wanted to take some more things to thank me, but I saw that there was no one alive in Boris Castle, which was a bit miserable, so I refused."

"..." Bero was stunned for a moment. He always felt that something was wrong here.

The look in his eyes is that I think you are lying to me, but I have no proof.

For example, is that Nalant second son really that powerful?

Also, are there really nobles who would take territory as payment?

But Boris's expression was very natural during the description, and the two small trebuchets couldn't be faked, so Bero couldn't refute it.

"Let's go, don't be in a daze! Let's go in first, and I'll treat you to White Sugar white bread later!" Boris smiled and entered the inner castle with his good friend.

This is a slight exaggeration and can be regarded as the "normal operation" of the nobles. There are indeed hundreds of Dark Creature, Boris is not a lie, and there are indeed many Headless Knight and Hellhound.

As for... what was originally intended to be dealt with by fighting, but unfortunately Quinte took the lead and ran away... that was just a small detail. Anyway, they did wipe out Dark Creature in the end, as evidenced by Quinte's 'thank you gift'...

Boris is not guilty at all...

Meanwhile, Tulip Castle.

"Miss, big news!" In Flower of Tulip's gorgeous manor house, the personal maid Lina shouted and entered the hall.

"What's the big news?" Stella was interrupted from meditation and looked at Lina with some confusion. Although Lina usually wasn't very in tune, he rarely bothered him like this when he was practicing.

"Miss, just now Baron Andrew came to the castle again!" Lina was still sweating a little, and he was obviously running a little hurriedly, "Moreover, when he came, he brought Sir Walade with him, and Sir Walade had already been beaten into a pig's head by him!"

"Huh? Baron Andrew beat Sir Walade into a pig's head? Why?" Stella also showed a slight surprise. Although the nobles were not always in harmony, it was really rare for them to fight directly.

Generally, they will complain to their monarch or Noble Council.
