Chapter 79

Victor's motorcade set out on his way home. Compared with the time when he came, 30 carriages loaded with goods joined his motorcade. These are the goods temporarily lent to Victor by the York family. When they return to Heibao, they need to pull 30 carts of purple cane wine in return.

Barol sat cramped in the spacious carriage and was worried. The LORD had called him into the carriage for an hour, but he didn't say a word and just closed his eyes. The maid beside the LORD was playing with a short sword and looked at him vigilantly and curiously with a trace of malice.

The adult didn't speak, and Barol didn't dare to speak. Out of professional quality, he still observed some details silently. The floor of the carriage was covered with wool mixed carpets, 80% of which were new and clean. Although they were valuable, they were not valuable. The aristocrats used this kind of carpet, which seemed a little shabby. How could the aristocrats with deep knowledge shop a whole piece of bear skin.

There was also something strange about the four wheeled carriage. The carriage was a solid oak carriage, but the appearance of the carriage was not wrapped in copper or carved with gorgeous lines. The base of the carriage is a structure that barrow has never seen before. The wheels are small in front and large in back, and are wrapped with a kind of lizard skin. Barrow has been sitting in the carriage for an hour without feeling obvious bumps.

The carriage was surrounded by more than a dozen cavalry. These cavalry were powerful, but their movements were full of the smell of mercenaries. Their weapons and shields were always placed in the most convenient place, and most of them were about 40 years old. Barrow was very sure that they were all guards born of mercenaries.

The most important thing is that there are no knights in the team, and few lords travel without knights, which is not only unsafe, but also very shameful.

It is an undecorated carriage, escorted by mercenaries and without knights. From barrol's experience, the owner of the motorcade is more like a businessman than a noble, but barrol knows it's an illusion. The young Lord in front of him is not only noble in blood but also deep-rooted. Because he is the Baron of the Wimbledon family.

As a spy, Barol knows that the surname Wimbledon has a long history and can be traced back thousands of years. Although the family has long disintegrated, there is no doubt about their heritage. Otherwise, how can the young Baron have dead men to work for him? And the dead man was honestly driving a carriage for the baron.

Two days ago, when the coachman did not hesitate to kill the paladin, Barol understood that his opportunity had come. He knew that only the dead would not care about the identity of the paladin. This also shows three problems. First, he is valuable to the noble. Second, the nobleman had no hands, otherwise he would not send a dead man to catch a little man like him. Third, the noble has a lot of details. Only a large family can cultivate the inhuman creature of the dead. Barol has never heard of the dead comparable to the trainee knight, but he has seen it.

. Baron Victor has no hands, but he has unfathomable details. He is the perfect candidate for Barol.

Barol was determined to show his value. In his opinion, the Baron hung him for an hour to test his patience, so he sat there honestly and motionless. Patience is an important quality of the dark son of the family.

Those who want to climb up will always guess the idea of the superior, but this is just speculation. Victor didn't pay attention to Barol because he was still combing the gains and losses of his trip to black castle.

The purpose of Victor's visit to Heibao was basically achieved. He formed an interest alliance with the York family to maintain the independence of the territory, which was reflected in the franchise agreement and notarized before God.

The franchise agreement states that Victor's purple cane wine is sold to the York family at the price of 18 Copper sols, equivalent to 9 copper sols, which will remain unchanged for 30 years. The York family opened food supplies to victor, but the prices needed to be traded at market prices.

Victor protested. He asked the York family to keep the price of barley 3 copper sol a pound unchanged for 30 years, but Sylvia firmly refused. Sylvia has two reasons. Firstly, Victor's population will be more and more. Secondly, Victor's wife is manipulating the food price of Gambis kingdom. Victor can buy cheap food from Sophia.

Victor had nothing to say. It was obvious that Sylvia preferred Victor to buy food from other lords. Anyway, she had controlled the purple cane wine. It's kind of her to be able to sell food freely to victor.

Then there is the fast bird. Victor collar needs to provide two pairs of chicks to the York family free of charge every year for 8 years. The York family will buy purple sugarcane leaves from Victor at the price of 1 copper rope and 3 pounds for feeding these big birds for 30 years.

Victor was very angry, not because of his opponent's greed, but because the York family penetrated deeply into him.

The York family asked for chicks directly because the adult fast bird has a bad temper. It will turn back and peck the rider if there is any trouble, which is fatal to ordinary cavalry. If you want to tame the fast bird, you must start with the young bird. Only in this way can the fast bird obey its master. This is the knowledge taught by busso. Not many people know it, but the York family knows it very well. Victor could imagine that in less than eight years, the York family would have a flock of fast birds.

Finally, Sylvia said that the York family would not interfere in the coffee business, and Victor agreed to this unequal clause.

The York family gave up the coffee business. Victor was puzzled. He didn't understand why the York family was soft on the coffee issue, so he asked Sylvia, but the beautiful Countess smiled without saying a word and hooked him to the bed with only a pair of big watery eyes.

Generally speaking, this agreement is a very unfair supply and marketing agreement. The York family did not even make it clear that it would protect the fragile Victor collar.

But Victor knew that the unequal agreement was due to the unequal strength. As long as the York family does not have its own purple sugarcane resources, it will always protect Victor's collar. If a stronger force than the York family covets Victor's purple sugarcane, even if the protection clause is indicated in the agreement, it is useless.

But Victor doesn't care. What he really wants to rely on is sucrose. From another point of view, this agreement is more favorable to him. Just as he didn't expect purple cane wine to have strategic value, Sylvia didn't expect Victor to have sucrose. Now the value of purple cane wine exceeds that of sucrose, and he has given it up, but the sucrose has been saved.

"No one is helpless." Exclaimed victor.

"What does that mean, my lord?" Lilia asked happily when she heard Victor finally speak.

"Nothing, just casually." Victor smiled. He had no intention of explaining.

Although Lilia is smart and learns quickly, it will take some time to become her assistant. Thinking of this, Victor turned his eyes to barrow opposite.

"Are you the hyena leader who calculated me?"

"My Lord, I have to. I can't resist the order of the sheriff. Please spare your life." Barol explained as he wiped the cold sweat from his head.

"Don't install it. You don't have sweat on your head at all. When you first got on the carriage, you carefully looked at the base and wheels of the carriage, and your pupils narrowed. After getting on the carriage, although you looked terrified, your heart beat very smoothly and observed the situation in the car secretly. Am I right?" Victor sneered. Within two meters, barrol could not hide his every move.

Barol turned white and said in a astringent voice, "the steward of the Villepin family preached that adults have no awakening Knight talent, but he didn't expect adults to be knights."

"Tell me who you really are." Victor was proud, but he looked light.

Barol wiped the cold sweat on his head again. This time it was a real cold sweat.

"Baron, I was a spy trained by the Grice family when I was young. I used to work for the Duke of Grice. Later, the Duke was hanged. I fled to Heibao town and became a hyena leader."

"Why did you take the initiative to follow my men back?" Barol not only stopped a big trouble, but also took the initiative to cooperate with shack, which is Victor's most curious place.

Barol glanced up at Victor, then bowed his head and said, "I think adults may use me, and I also want to make a living under adults."

Since Victor did not mention the paladin and the dead, Barol would not take the initiative to mention it.

Victor smiled faintly and said, "when I was young, I saw a hamster hole. I was curious about what the hamster looked like, so I asked the servant to fill it with water. When the local mouse ran out, I ordered the servant to trample the hamster to death. Lilia, do you think the hamster would think I need it?"

Lilia blinked. She couldn't understand Victor, so she said honestly, "Sir, I usually ask old ham to bake it."

Victor suddenly had a black line in his head.

Fortunately, Barol was quite knowledgeable. He said in a deep voice, "Sir, that's because you find that gophers are useless to you."

"Useful? That's how you teach monkeys. You also teach monkeys to accept their lives. Ironically, you're running for your life."

Barol said with a dry smile: "Sir, that's just a means to train his men. People will be afraid of death, spies are also people, and will surrender in the face of torture. They will commit suicide only when they really have no way to live. Just ask for less sin."

"It's quite sincere." Victor nodded.

Barol is telling Victor implicitly that he has no intention of death to the Gris family. He only wants to work under victor. If he talks about loyalty and fearlessness with Victor, he's looking for death.

Victor's biggest hidden danger now is the murderer hidden in the dark. He has no idea who the murderer is or why the murderer wants to kill him. But if you can use a wizard as a killer, the power of the killer must be amazing.

Judging from the current situation, the Marquis Sophia is the most suspected, but the possibility is very small. Therefore, Victor insinuated to Sylvia about whether Sophia asked her to take care of herself. Sylvia avoided talking about it. She just told Victor not to have illusions about Sophia. Obviously, the countess wanted Victor to give up Sophia and join the York family, but she must have no knowledge of Victor's assassination, Otherwise, she will use it to make Victor obedient.

From some details, Victor preferred that Sophia was trying to protect the little Baron and spent a lot of money to arrange for him to take refuge in the hills.

If the truth is what Victor guessed, it must be the worst result.

Victor doesn't know how powerful Sophia is, but she's absolutely bottomless. She's too rich. In my memory, Victor knew four knights in the Marquis mansion, all of whom were resident in the Marquis mansion. Sofia also has four chambers of commerce under her name, which trade between countries all year round, and the caravans engaged in trade are also protected by knights. If Sophia can't protect the little Baron, how powerful is the murderer.

However, Sophia sent the little Baron to the man horse hill, which shows that she believes that as long as she lets the little Baron leave her side, she will be safe. Not sending knights to protect the little Baron is more like an exile. This gesture may be for the murderer. At the same time, she secretly asked Sylvia to take care of her little male pet, but she didn't tell Sylvia the truth. It must be a big trouble for her to offend the forces she can't afford.

Victor was very anxious. He combed all his memories carefully with x-3 and didn't find out who the little Baron offended in the end? Or found a secret? At present, it is only certain that Sophia must know everything, and victor will be finished as long as he returns to the marquis.

No matter who you are, as long as I find out, I will let you die! Victor made up his mind.

Barol was scared to death by Victor's cold eyes. He didn't know if he had said something wrong. At this time, the cold sweat was really gargling.

"Barol, tell me, how did the family raise the dark son?" Victor calmed his mood and asked the old spy.

"My Lord, dark sons don't need training. They just need investment. They may be villains, cleaners or businessmen. Most dark sons don't know they are dark sons. We can get a lot of information by investing in them, getting in touch with them and observing their actions. For example, the groom who drives the car for the nobility can know the nobility by observing his life rules The law of activity. " Barrow said cautiously.

"Haven't you been raised since childhood?" Victor was a little surprised. He didn't expect that dark son was all ordinary people.

"My Lord, spies are trained by the family since childhood. Spies are more like spiders. They keep weaving webs. Dark son is our web, and intelligence is our prey."

"Every spy has his own field. He is good at doing business. Most of his networks are businessmen and hawkers. He analyzes intelligence from transactions. For example, I have been trained as a villain since I was a child. I am good at mixing with hyenas. Those villains, warblers and small bosses may unknowingly become my dark son."

"Do you still have a net?" Asked Victor curiously.

"My Lord, the spy's identity is changeable. When one's identity is exposed, the net is gone, so the spy is proficient in making up and looking for a substitute. This time, I escaped by pretending to be dead, that is, I found a free man of the same stature and age as me on the way of migration. I secretly observed his movements, his characteristics, imitated his voice, and used makeup to change my appearance with him bit by bit Almost, at last, I led my pursuer to his house, which made him my substitute. "

"You are so mean!" Leia scolded angrily.

Barol did not defend, but smiled bitterly. He was trained in this way since he was a child.

"It's really mean." Victor patted the girl on the shoulder to show that he was standing in a ditch with her. Unfortunately, he had to train these despicable spies.

"Barol, give you a chance to prove your value." Victor then said, "there are also dark sons of other families or spies in my collar. I want you to dig them out. Can you do it?"

Barol whispered, "Sir, if you want soldiers to fight, you need to give them weapons. If you want farmers to plough, you need to give them farm tools."

"What do you need?" Asked Victor impatiently.

"I need time." Barrow gritted his teeth and said that he wanted more hands, but he dared not mention it. He wanted to prove his value.

"How long will it take?" Victor won't let him be careless.

"My Lord, I don't know the specific situation yet, but you can rest assured that I can find out. The intelligence collected by spies will not be exposed, but as long as the intelligence is transmitted to the outside, it will certainly reveal flaws. I am very familiar with various means of transmitting intelligence." Barol quickly promised.

"I'm looking forward to your performance. Just tell me the results secretly. You can go out now."

When barrow got out of the carriage, Lilia asked Victor, "Victor, can this guy be trusted?"

"I can't trust him, but I'll take out all his means."
