The viscount frowned and pondered for a long time, even waving his hand to drive away the dancing girls! Li You Ran was somewhat unhappy, this was going well, why did he drive them away?
Moreover, Viscount is really not a good actor. Can't he feel that even if he frowns, the joy on his face can't be hidden? It's as if he's telling others how happy he is that Li You Ran didn't open her mouth widely.
The viscount performed alone on top, but Li You Ran below was completely unaware, still facing the wine in the wine jug, not noticing the viscount's expression with eyes that were about to pop out. It was still Elington who saw the viscount's embarrassment and came forward to rescue him.
"My lord, the castle built by Baron is on my territory. If the baron has taken a liking to that land, then either return mine or bestow it upon the baron! What do you think?"
Viscount was delighted! Good subordinate, from now on I will definitely promote you well. He gave Erlinton a look of appreciation and then sternly coughed twice, saying: "Since the baron has his eyes on that land, I'll give you the territory originally belonging to Erlinton, along with the surrounding ten miles, as your fiefdom. How about that? These should be enough for two thousand sets of such clothes!"
"Hmm, this wine is really good, unfortunately none of my subordinates know how to brew it, and I don't know when I'll be able to drink such a fine wine again." Li You Ran didn't respond to the viscount's words, but instead said something completely unrelated.
Viscount was stunned, what's going on? Just now it was about land, wasn't it? How did it suddenly turn into wine? Who brought this up? No choice but to give Erlinton a signal, good little brother hurry and remind him.
Elington received the gaze, returned a reassuring gaze, and then came to Li You Ran's front. He covered Li You Ran's action of pouring wine with his hand, and smiled: "Baron, this wine is nothing! At worst, let Viscount send you a few brewing masters, let's talk about the transaction between land and clothes."
The viscount rolled his eyes, well, this deal hasn't even been discussed yet, and he's already sent over a few winemakers! You know that craftsmen-type talent is hard to find these days, but for the sake of his own expansionist ambitions, the viscount could only acquiesce.
After hearing Ellington's words, Li You Ran smiled, and indeed you still understand my heart! The two exchanged a glance, everything was self-evident, but why did a strong sense of bromance emanate from it?
"Since Viscount, you are so sincere! I won't be stingy either. Two thousand sets, including hats and gloves, all equipped, can be given to you now, when do you want them." Li You Ran stood up and said with a swaying tone.
"Good! Baron You Ran is pleased, so I'll issue the certificate." The viscount left his seat and quickly walked to his study, where he drafted the territorial certificate under the influence of wine. When it came to writing down the area, he hesitated - would 10 square miles be too small? There was no arable land there, only forests, and it was often harassed by foreign tribes, making it worthless except for magical beasts. After some deliberation, the viscount gritted his teeth and wrote down 100 square miles instead of 10, considering it a kind gesture.
Li You Ran was waiting outside when the viscount finally came out. Although it was a worthless piece of land, he had given up such a large piece all at once, and he couldn't help but feel a little reluctant to part with it. However, for the sake of future development, the viscount gritted his teeth and handed over the beast skin certificate to Li You Ran with his eyes closed.
Li You Ran happily opened the animal skin, joyfully watching it, smiling and nodding while looking at it. Hmm! Not a single word was recognizable, but the seal was stamped with an exceptionally elegant flair, a bear head prominently nailed to the animal skin paper. This must be the viscount family's crest, Li You Ran didn't quite understand, just pretending to look at it.
"How's that! I'm good enough, from now on we're sworn brothers, I hope you can always support me." The viscount thought he had expressed sufficient goodwill, unfortunately, his charming eyes were wasted on a blind man.
Elington took a surreptitious glance, of course he couldn't read the characters, but he recognized the emblem and nodded to Li You Ran, indicating that it was genuine.
Li You Ran smiled and put the beast skin paper into her bosom, then said: "Of course we are the best partners! No one is more generous than you, so now should we find a place to put those clothes? The hall isn't safe enough."
"Follow me," said Viscount, nodding his head, "the warehouse is inside."
These are all strategic materials that cannot be placed in the outer warehouse. Following the viscount to the inner warehouse, what I saw were rows of sparkling weapons and some armor. The collection is much more than Airington's. It seems that the class is indeed different.
"It's here, this is where I store my finest equipment." The viscount said with some pride.
This place where a large number of weapons are stored is his proudest place, and it is also the capital and confidence that he dares to start an army and annex. Li You Ran's arrival undoubtedly added to his confidence.
Li You Ran nodded upon hearing this, then with a single stroke of her hand in the air, clothes along with hats and gloves all fell out, exactly two thousand sets, not one more or less, instantly filling up the entire space.
"It's done! The transaction is finally complete, Viscount. We won't disturb you anymore." With that said, he prepared to take Erlinton away, first to a bakery to spend the night, and then back to their territory.
"Wait! Baron, where are you going? Now that you've arrived at my castle, do I not prepare a room for you? You're an honored guest. If I don't keep you here, other nobles will laugh at me if they find out. Come, come! I'll take you there." With that, he dragged Li You Ran away without giving him a choice, and as for Airington, he naturally had to return to the bakery. He wasn't a wizard, nor could he help the viscount, so no one would pay attention to him.
Li You Ran ultimately stayed overnight at the castle under the viscount's enthusiastic hospitality, of course he still firmly refused the viscount's arranged companion, even though this woman's figure was really fiery, he had some romantic thoughts, but the smell on his body still made him give up, vowing in his heart that next time he would definitely bring bathing supplies when coming here, otherwise if he met a woman he liked, would he have to endure such a smell?
While Li You Ran was asleep, he didn't know that a conspiracy against him was about to unfold. The little wizard who had left arrived at the door of a small black house and knocked four times with three long and one short knocks before someone opened the door.
After going in, he negotiated with a man with a full beard inside for a long time and finally came out when it was about to dawn. After the little wizard left, a grey eagle flew out of the black house.
