Chapter 147

Gillian has been trapped in Victor's temporary camp for seven days.

Generally speaking, Gillian is doing well these days. Victor ordered her to expand the wooden house, build some simple furniture, and even find a broken copper mirror. Although the things are very simple and crude, as far as the current situation is concerned, it is enough to reflect Victor's demeanor. In particular, Victor took a modified leather armor for her, and Gillian finally replaced the short skirt that made her very uncomfortable. Thinking of Victor's regretful eyes after she changed into leather armor, gilly was relieved and secretly proud.

Gillian doesn't care whether she sleeps in a shack or a wooden house. She's not a delicate noble lady. As the first heir of count chebman and a powerful Silver Knight, Victor gave her a courtesy commensurate with her status within the scope of her ability, which is the reason for Gillian's satisfaction. In addition, Victor did not restrict her freedom. What really tied Gillian was the armor and long sword thrown in the lake.

"Your name is shack, isn't it? When can your adults salvage my equipment?" After eating up a whole plate of wild fruits, Gillian put her long legs on the table and asked lazily.

"I don't know." Shack replied indifferently.

Gillian only felt stuffy. She asked the same question many times a day and got the same answer every time.

More than ten days ago, Gillian just stepped into the silver stage and became the fourth knight in the family. Equipped with the Mithril armor and long sword that count chebman had prepared for her, Gillian couldn't wait to find some ant men to try the sword, but she met a single ant man. To her surprise, the ant man was a silver monster. After a fierce battle, the unarmed silver ant man was badly hurt and fled to victor. Gillian chased after him, but met another silver ant man. It was Gillian's turn to escape. After that, she was lucky to be rescued by Victor, which was the later thing.

Gillian was depressed that her beloved armor and sword were thrown into the lake before they covered the heat. She would never leave until they were salvaged. But she also knew that Victor was not unwilling to help her salvage equipment. It was not easy to salvage heavy armor and Mithril sword from the lake. This requires a boat and a 20 meter long rope. The most important thing is that someone can dive into the muddy lake bottom, find and bind these equipment. Only a knight can do this. And Victor doesn't have these conditions.

Gillian herself is to blame. Fearing that the equipment would be found by silver ants, she forcibly ran the exhausted fighting spirit and threw the equipment far into the lake, which not only caused trouble for salvage, but also fell into a weak state because of her excessive use of fighting spirit. She couldn't recover without more than ten days.

Victor was also very depressed. The eldest lady of the chebman family refused to leave. He had to postpone the plan to eliminate the ant man, which was nothing. The action of hunting the ant man leader was also forced to be suspended. Two ant man leaders had left the territory under his eyes. In this regard, Victor is very distressed. Although Gillian is a rare beauty, her beauty obviously can't be compared with the value of silver ant man.

So when Victor saw Gillian put her two long legs on the dining table in the camp, he said angrily, "miss chebman, please pay attention to your manners. This is not your bedroom."

Glancing sideways at victor who had just returned, Gillian said faintly, "why didn't you say that when I was wearing a short skirt?"

"At that time, we were not familiar. I would never take the liberty to correct the manners of strange women. This is the basic self-restraint of aristocrats." Victor straightened his collar and said sincerely.

"Come on, don't say it's useless. Pick up my equipment and I'll take it off and show you." Gillian doesn't care about Victor's cheekiness, she said bluntly.

"I've seen it and touched it." Victor secretly feigned, but said, "the raft has been built. My people are making hemp rope. In three days, we can start fishing. The question now is, when can you recover?"

"At least five more days." Gillian said ruefully.

Victor smiled and nodded. As long as he wanted, those equipment could be salvaged at any time, but the smell of ant man leader could not be eliminated until he soaked in the lake for at least ten days. Otherwise, even if they were salvaged, these equipment would still be tracked by the ant colony. Not to mention Gillian's great loss of strength, even if she is in good condition, she can't safely return to count chebman with her equipment. Victor doesn't want to save her again.

In fact, Victor can shorten the process to three days, but he will never expose the way to deal with ant man smell in front of Gillian. This method is very simple, but valuable. Not to mention the eldest lady of the chebman family, even Sylvia and victor will not leak. He wants to build a unique Pro guard.

Victor decided to let the eldest lady of the chebman family stay for a few more days. Although three to five ant man leaders will slip away from him, the power represented by Gillian is worth Victor's doing so.

"Miss chebman, let's talk about something else." Victor smiled gracefully.

Gillian immediately sat up straight and said vigilantly, "what do you want to talk about? Although you saved me, you have given up my return."

Hearing the speech, Victor was almost choked by his saliva. He rubbed his eyebrows and said, "miss chebman, your beauty really moves me, but I won't take advantage of others."

"That's good. What do you want to talk about?" Gillian relaxed and said indifferently.

"You've been stealing my secret silver mine." Victor knocked on the table and whispered.

Gillian was like a hairy cat. She narrowed her beautiful Phoenix eyes, but her eyes were as cold as a sword. However, Victor's dark eyes were as deep and unpredictable as the night sky. After looking at each other for a moment, she vented: "I don't deny it, but in this ant disaster, our chebman family saved your purple sugarcane forest. Do you admit it?"

Victor was silent for a moment, nodded and said, "although this statement makes me very unhappy, it's a fact."

Gillian showed her eyebrows. She thought she would be refuted by Victor and was ready to debate with him. However, she was not confident enough and was ready to cheat. Unexpectedly, Victor admitted her words. Gillian was surprised by the magnanimity of the young Lord and couldn't help looking at him more.

Victor joked, "beautiful lady, it's very difficult for you to look at me like this. I already have a wife."

"That's a pity."

Gillian licked her sexy lips, and a look of regret appeared on her gorgeous face. In the marriage moral system of human nobles, she advocated that noble women should remain pure before marriage. When she gave birth to an heir for her husband, she could have a relatively free private life. This is mainly because the first child of noble women often has the best blood talent, and noble girls who are in love are more vulnerable to temptation. But Gillian is not included in this list. As the heir to the Earl title, her partner can only choose from the children of a small family. As a great aristocrat and knight, Gillian can find several lovers if she wants to find several lovers, but she is addicted to the growth of power and wealth and has little interest in lust.

However, Victor is Gillian's most ideal marriage object. The family is weak, the blood is noble, young and handsome, and the life is long. The only disadvantage is that it is difficult to have children, but as long as you come a few more times, there will always be future generations. Count chebman had hoped that when Victor was desperate, he would take him in, rearrange his identity and let him become Gillian's partner. However, everyone did not expect that Sophia and Sylvia jointly staged a dazzling play, Victor's crisis could not be solved, and count chebman regretted it.

Gillian doesn't reject what happened with Victor, but Victor has Sylvia as his backer, which is no longer coveted by others, not to mention that he is still a terrible silver shooter. Gillian has a strong character, but she doesn't want to be a rival in love with Sylvia. She can only express regret.

If Victor knew that Gillian would be angry with him, he would have to let her know what a real man is. Of course, Victor didn't read his mind. Now he just wanted to talk to the eldest lady of the chebman family.

"I must take back the secret silver mine. Now, I just want to know whether your chebman family still wants secret silver?"

Gillian first nodded her head in recognition. After listening to the second half of Victor's sentence, she immediately stared round. "What do you mean?"

"I have made it clear that if you chebman family still need secret silver, I can sell it to you." Victor chuckled.

Gillian looked into Victor's eyes and asked in a deep voice, "is that what Mrs. rose means?"

"What does this have to do with her? No one knows about the secret silver mine except our two families." Victor said displeased.

"How dare you betray the Rose Queen!" Gilly pointed to Victor's nose and said in shock.

Victor snorted coldly, "miss chebman, this is my territory, and I am not a vassal of the York family! In addition, Sylvia is far more generous than you think, as evidenced by her striving for the Viscount for me."

"What? You can't be so naive! Thanks to my father, you still think you are a smart young Lord." Said Gillian.

"Yes, you are now a Viscount, and the bottleneck of development has been opened. But your brand doomed you to be the Lord of the York family. Even if there are knights who take refuge in you, they will come to the York family. Moreover, the main economic source of your territory, purple cane wine, is completely in the hands of the York family, and your territory is also in the sphere of influence of the York family The tribe completely digests the human horse hills and eventually establishes a principality or kingdom. No matter how far you develop your territory, you must become a member of the Principality of York, just like the relationship between the Lord and the king. "

Victor lost his smile. He admitted that Gillian was right. This is the price of standing in line, but he is no longer the original guard dog. As Sylvia said, the Lord needs power and must choose the camp. There is no difference between being the Lord of the Augusts and the Lord of the Yorks. However, the queen is full of malice towards herself, and the confidant of the Archduke is his mortal enemy. In contrast, the York family and themselves are located in the same human and horse hills and have common interests and enemies, which is the basis of bilateral cooperation. Victor even wants to help the York family become stronger, but he does not intend to blindly follow the York family. His potential is far beyond any family, and his focus is no longer limited to a territory, a kingdom, but the whole human country.

"So what? Don't talk about my territory. Even your chebman family will benefit from the York family. Now, just tell me, do you want the secret silver?" Victor asked with a smile.

Victor's confident smile made Gillian a little dizzy. She quickly glanced at the wooden guards around, thought deeply, and finally said, "what conditions?"

"It's said that your chebman family has three salt mines, one high-quality refined gold mine and rich sisal and flax resources. My conditions are very simple. Mithril is sold to you at the market price, and your resources are also sold to me at the market price." Said Victor.

"That's not good. The royal family won't be happy to sell us these materials." Gillian shook her head.

Victor is most worried about this situation. Everyone knows the game between the Kingdom center and Pingfan. As the southern lords of the Kingdom, the chebman family naturally does not want to offend the Lord. He pondered for a moment and said, "the kingdom can't stop the trade of free people, can it?"

"You mean... Good idea! There's another problem. We can't buy Mithril at the market price at such a big risk. At the same time, our materials must be increased by another 20% on the basis of the market price."

Victor sneered in his heart. The chebman family was really greedy. The secret silver had a price and no market. It could not be bought with money at all. In the case of limited land, the secret silver equipment with friendly elements was an important material to attract knights.

"The chebman family is famous for their diligence and thrift. But you have operated for hundreds of years and accumulated more wealth than many families for hundreds of years. Do you know why?" Victor didn't wait for Gillian to answer and said, "if you take advantage of everything, you'll be poor enough to have no friends."

Gillian raised her eyebrows and stared hard at Victor. Finally, she compromised. "Well, do as you say."

Victor nodded with satisfaction and said, "before trading, you should first give me the discount of the secret silver stolen in front. It looks like 150000 gold sols. If everyone is so familiar, I'll take you 100000 gold sols."

"What?! 100000 kinsol! Do you want money! Important people can, I'm right here!"
