"Nilu, bring my tie."
In the small building, the girl sent a lace collar flower to Ethan's room as quickly as possible, and stood on her toes to pin him on. Looking at Ethan, the girl said, "Dad, you seem to be in a good mood today."
"Because a life-changing opportunity is right in front of us, Nilu. If all goes well, we will soon be able to leave this broken house." Ethan stepped on the floor and said.
He is extraordinarily energetic and full of spirit today. If it weren't for the almost paranoid look in her eyes, the man in front of her could almost overlap perfectly with the past. Nillu was thinking, who is he going to meet?
Ethan put on a neat suit, pinned his collar, and looked like a gentleman about to go to a banquet. He will only dress like this when he sees important people. He patted his daughter on the shoulder and strode out of the room.
In the Prancing Horse Hotel, Edward is looking at his Imperial Constitution. He took it so seriously that nothing seemed to disturb him, so he didn't know that someone was visiting until the door knocked for the third time.
"Who?" Edward walked towards the door.
"It's me, Ethan."
Edward opened the door and said cheerfully, "It's nice to see you again, Mr. Ethan."
He asked Ethan to come in, looked around the corridor, and then closed the door. Edward smiled: "It seems that Mr. Ethan has already made a decision."
"Yes, I decided to take a gamble. Although I am not a gambler, I think if I don't take this opportunity, I don't know if I have another chance next time." Ethan nodded.
Edward agreed: "Opportunities are always fleeting, brave people will hold them firmly, but cowardly people are content to the status quo."
"So, what are you going to do? I have to remind you that my uncle is a level 15 knight." Ethan said.
"Even if it's a knight, it's just an old knight." Edward smiled, and said: "We have enough strength. As long as there is a suitable time, it can completely make the Baron York disappear. However, Suhl doesn't want to be one. The ideal place for hands-on."
"This is not a problem. Storm City's army is about to go to the Aspen Mountains. I will tell my uncle to join them in battle. With his character, he will not be assured that Sir Maud's people will lose control on his territory. "
"If this is the ideal situation, the Baron died in battle, and Mr. Ethan inherited his title and power. There is no better ending than this."
Ethan nodded and said, "So, what are your conditions? You won't help me unconditionally, right?"
"That's natural. After all, we are businessmen." Edward said lightly: "We come from a far away place, and we don't have any status or identity on this strange continent. For us, the most urgent thing is to be justified. identity of."
Ethan walked around the house twice and said, "No problem, wait for me to take the seat of the city lord. You can become residents of Suhl City."
"This is not enough, sir. My young master, at least still needs the status of a chamber of commerce chairman."
"Chairman of the Chamber of Commerce." Ethan frowned and said, "The chairman of the Chamber of Commerce in Suhl City has always been Sean..."
"He has been sitting in that position for a long time, and it is time to move. Moreover, we will bring a brand new industrial revolution to the city. If we make such a contribution, I think there will be no criticism. Right?"
Ethan gritted his teeth and said: "Okay, I promise you. If you can really bring changes to Suhl City, the position of chairman of the Chamber of Commerce is yours."
"Then the last point, we still need some protection."
"Guaranteed?"
"This is a simple contract that I have drawn up. Mr. Ethan has asked me to look at it." Edward took out a few pages of the contract from the draw and handed it to Ethan.
Ethan looked at him: "If you are sure I will come?"
"That's not the case, it's just a little preparation in advance."
Ethan read the contract dubiously, and on the last item of payment, his breathing became short: "I need to marry my daughter to your young master, or the person he appointed, for this contract to take effect?"
"We always need a little bit of protection, and marriage can guarantee the smooth progress of our cooperation. After all, with Mr. Ethan's current conditions, all I can think of is this." Edward said nonchalantly.
Ethan smiled bitterly: "What if I refuse?"
"That will only show that you are not sincere, of course we will not cooperate with you."
Ethan hummed: "It seems that I don't have much choice."
"It's true, but Mr. Ethan, you can rest assured. You will never regret your choice today."
Ethan clenched his fists, a struggling expression flashed in his eyes. York's contempt and indifference kept flashing in his head. He gritted his teeth and stretched out his hand: "Pen!"
Edward handed a pen over, watched Ethan write his name on the contract quickly, and then sat down as if exhausting all his energy. Edward put away the contract, folded it carefully and put it in his pocket, and then stretched out his hand: "I wish we have a good cooperation, Mr. Ethan. Oh, no, the future Lord Baron."
Ethan smiled and stretched out his hands to hold Edward together.
Not far from the camp in the Aspen Mountains, Allen was sitting on a boulder, watching the grassy and enjoying a delicious meal. This young king snake that he brought from the earth is fully adapted to the environment of this planet, although the beasts here are different from those on the earth. But for Bai, its nascent mind control ability also produced extraordinary effects.
The little beast that Bai swallowed was affected by its mental power, and automatically emerged from an inconspicuous nest on the side of the grass slope, came to the king snake's side in a muddled manner, swallowed with a mouthful of white mouth, and then gradually digested. The beasts of this planet are naturally able to absorb the natural source power of the universe, although the amount of absorption is not large, it is already a rare meal for white.
As the flesh and blood melted, the source of the little beast's body was absorbed little by little, making the little snake so comfortable that it even wanted to sleep beautifully.
"Allen."
Allen turned around, Lucy was waving at him: "Edward is back, he has something to look for you."
"understood."
Back at the camp, I saw Edward in the tent. Maritan smiled and said: "We are going to fight."
"What about the opponent?" Allen didn't seem surprised.
"Sir York and the troops of Storm City."
"It seems that there are a lot of enemies."
Edward spread his hand and said: "No way, this is what I promised. But in fact, our real goal is only Sir York."
Allen said, "It looks like you have made some gains this trip to Sul City."
"The harvest is not small." Edward said about the cooperation with Ethan.
Alan frowned when he heard that marriage was added to Edward's condition. Edward said: "I know you don't want to accept it, so I added another item. You can designate someone to marry Ethan's daughter, no matter who it is."
"Then it's you." Allen smiled mischievously.
"Me?" His decision surprised Edward himself. The boy Maritan put away his smile and said with a serious face: "Do you believe me?"
His problem is obvious, after all, Edward has only just joined. Once he and Ethan's daughter are married, according to Edward's plan, he may control the city of Suhl at that time. If he turns to deal with Allen, Allen's situation will be quite disadvantaged.
Allen also said seriously: "We both lack trust in each other, so it is a good choice to cultivate from now on. So the question of whether to believe or not, Edward, you just have to ask yourself. Are you willing to be trusted by me?"
Edward laughed: "As I said before, I will not do anything against you during the contract period. That is a stupid choice. Since you don't want to take over the beautiful Miss Nilu, then let me do it for you. Up."
"What are your plans afterwards?"
"Let Ethan be the lord of the city, and then let him do some stupid things, and finally the stupid Baron Ethan committed suicide. And his title and estate, judging from the constitution of the empire, will fall to my head. At that time, I You have the power to canonize you as a knight. In the end, as long as I fight a few more beautiful wars, I can abdicate and become virtuous." Edward calmly said: "From what I have seen and heard in the city of Suhl, this Bairegon Empire There is no shortage of wars. It is common for nobles to fight against each other. Except for the important cities of the empire, wars occur in other places. The empire turns a blind eye. We need territory, we can fight it out, and all of this. , Only need a name recognized by the empire."
He frowned again: "Actually, it is the quickest way for you to accept Ms. Nilu. Become the lord of the city directly, so you don't have to make such a big bend.
Allen shook his head and said, "If I do this, we don't need to fight first, we will have to fight ourselves first."
Edward looked out of the book~EbookFREE.me~ and smiled: "That's true. Two beautiful ladies will definitely not be able to bear you being caught by others."
"It is estimated that in less than a week, the coalition forces in Suhl will arrive. We seem to have to make some preparations."
Allen stood up and said, "I'll meet Caesar, the Bymons will participate in this war. As for us, we should focus on Baron York."
The two left the camp and Edward had just returned, and Allen asked him to stay in the camp to rest. He took Willick and Belmode to Caesar’s stockade and watched them leave. Edward murmured: "Is this a test for me? In fact, this kind of thing is unnecessary. I have to use your power to go. Look for that person. So before that, no matter what happens, I will not do anything to self-destruct the wall."
"Allen, let's take what we need."
(There will be a change in the evening, the 30,000 red ticket will be added! Continue to ask for subscriptions, red tickets, rewards and so on. A million words, the second big seal should be down soon, and it will continue to explode at that time!)
