Vol 4 Chapter 52: Your courage and dreams

Yang Yi is really speechless. Over the years, he has seen a lot of aristocrats who are not very mixed up, and some are even too poor. The only valuable thing in the family is a set of good clothes that can be worn out. But an earl as shabby as Deporte, once again refreshed his understanding, Yang Yi felt that he still saw too little.
I heard that Sheep One came to Werner, Bishop of Strasbourg, and De Porte was very enthusiastic to lead him. Bishop Werner was his cousin. Along the way, Yangyi was still wondering: a dignified earl, he didn't even dress a little decently when he went out hunting. The holes in his clothes were tied with straw ropes. And you don’t ride a horse or hunt. Can you run past a wolf?
If it were not for the bishop to be his cousin, Yang Yi would even suspect that the Count De Porte was a fake, more fake than his own Duke.
Bishop Werner is a true nobleman, living in a vast manor, with a vast territory, and as a priest, he can command the entire Alpine region on behalf of God, which is no smaller than the Kingdom of Leon in terms of area.
Bishop Werner was very polite and respectful to the Duke of Yangyi. After receiving the letter from the Marquis of Brecht, he did not open it immediately. Instead, he first kindly invited Yangyi to stay in his manor for two days and let him be a landlord. Friendship.
However, Yang Yi politely declined his invitation, saying that he wanted to visit the Earl of De Porte, and would visit the house after a while to get a reply to the Marquis of Brecht.
Bishop Werner looked at Yang Yi as if he was looking at the most incredible things in the world.
Sheep soon understood why Werner was surprised.
After walking for a day, the two came to De Pitt's house and saw two shack houses like pig kennels. The sheep's mind was bleak.
One of them really had two pigs. The pigs were thinner than the rabbits, but this was already De Porte's most valuable tangible property.
The ripped clothes are not the only one, but they are definitely the most decent one.
After returning home, De Porte warmly entertained the sheep for a meal. At other people's earls' house, what I eat is what pigs eat, and what do pigs eat is what I eat at earl de Porte's.
The first sheep who lived alone in the Zhongnan Mountains for more than a hundred years is a person who can live a hard life, but De Porter is more than a hard life. It is simply a cultivation, and he is practicing in the direction of a pig.
Brother Earl, let's kill a rabbit. No, isn't it good to kill a pig to eat?
De Porte and his cousin Bishop Werner are both members of the Alsace family. The Alsace family originated four hundred years ago, and now it is basically a loose pan-family concept. Except for the noble titles of their family everywhere, the Alsace family is not at all the close organization of the Central Plains clan or clan.
There are many titles in this large and broad family, and everyone has them, and they are very worthless. The only thing that can reflect the status of Count De Porte is the rusty broadsword studded with the family crest. Use it to chop wood, basically rely on smashing.
At this time, all the countries of Europa were basically composed of city-states and territories. Most of the lords here were called landlords in the Central Plains, and they were regarded as squires. The lords supervised the farming of the farmers when they were busy, and took the farmers around to rob.
If a certain lord or city lord can feed a standing army with more than fifty people and a full range of horses, armors, long swords, and long bows, he is probably qualified to call himself a "king", a king.
Therefore, the kings, princes and princesses of Europa are everywhere, and there are more noble titles derived from them.
In the late Tang Dynasty, the Chang'an imperial court gave a great title to anyone as long as the money was paid, and the price became lower and lower. As soon as the sheep went out of the mountain to buy food, they would encounter a Shangzhu Kingdom, three generals, and seven captains squatting on the roadside selling millet.
Europa's title at this time is not so exaggerated, but it has that flavor.
There are three farmers under the name of Count De Porte who are better than him, and his main income is from these three farmers. To be honest, I can collect even a small amount of tax from such three families.
De Porte, who has just turned 20, is like Yang Yi four hundred years ago. He looks stupid, but he is actually mellow and confused. He doesn't know what to do. Four hundred years ago, Yang Yi met his senior fellow Yuan Tiangang, and only then did he know what he wanted to do in this world, and only then did he have the first sheep four hundred years later.
De Porte also needs to meet his ‘Old Yuan’, or Yang Yi.
After ‘cultivating’ in the shack for two days, De Porte, who knew very well about the rules of Europa’s survival, brought De Porter to a nearby hill.
"De Porter, what do you think of this place?"
"Very good, the scenery is beautiful."
"De Porte, you see, there are three hanging walls, one side is a gentle slope, easy to defend and difficult to attack. A lot of farmland can be cultivated along the river below the slope. You build a castle here, stand based on the fort, and then recruit farmers, craftsmen and Knights, let them live at the foot of this mountain and form a guard against you."
"De Porter, within ten years, you will become a real lord, a real earl."
"Duke Sheep, this... needs a lot of money..."
"De Porter, money is the easiest thing in the world. The hardest thing is your courage and dreams."
De Porter was scorched by the sheep. He calculated that it would take 100 gold coins to build a castle, but the sheep knew that 100 was not enough because it was far more expensive to build on the top of the mountain than on the ground. And before the newly reclaimed land has output, everything is a net expenditure.
Sheep said ‘money is the easiest’ because he has money. De Porter thinks Sheep made a lot of sense because he knew his cousin, Bishop Werner, was very rich.
The innocent and simple De Porter was eager to borrow money from his cousin, borrowing 100 gold coins. Yang Yi didn't stop him, he felt that De Porter needed to touch many things himself.
Two days later, De Porter returned with a frustrated face, unable to say a word.
Sheep left a dozen Frankish gold coins on his body to De Porter, and asked him to recruit craftsmen and farmers who built the castle first, and deal with the foundation first.
"De Porter, buy a horse, good clothes and new boots. Also, eat well, I'll be back in two months. Oh, yes, kill the pig and eat it, so it’s good for the pig and good for you. ."
Sheep remembers that there are still a lot of Frankish gold coins in his cellar~EbookFREE.me~ and he intends to give them to Deport.
.
Back at home in Porto, Behia did not let the sheep get out of bed for another day. But after getting out of bed, the problem came.
There are indeed a lot of Frankish gold coins in the cellar. The sheep didn't count them. About a thousand of them were picked out and put on a wagon with seven or eight pumpkins pressed on them.
The paranoid miser Beihaiya was sitting on the ground crying heartbreakingly. She couldn't even bear the few pumpkins, not to mention so many gold coins.
Sapo rolled, kicked her legs and beat her chest, Beihaiya's grief was stronger than the day when the tribe's family was destroyed. But this home is Yang Yi's home after all, and he is also a determined person. After seeing a few words to no avail, he let her go upstream.
After crying for two days, I won't cry anymore. I will come back after the autumn harvest and take you to grab it. We only grab gold coins.
As soon as the sheep took the gold coins and went to the Alpine mountains, he never saw Beihaiya again.
