Chapter 25: Seize

　　 "Master Stephen."
　　The Countess Eliya carefully arranged her appearance, and then she smiled as gracefully as possible and handed a document to him, slowly saying: "This is the list you want."
　　 A long list was filled with the names of nobles, with their titles, fiefs, and strength, indicating their relationship with Earl Keaton.
　　Rinwind City is rich in minerals, and there are many secret struggles among nobles. The rise of Earl Keaton is because he seized the largest silver mine, which gave him plenty of funds to recruit troops. But this behavior also offends many old noble families in Howling City. Over the years, many nobles have been more or less oppressed and exploited by the Earl of Keaton. This is an inevitable thing in the struggle of the nobility. Earl Keaton can’t tolerate other big nobles to continue to grow. He has intervened in three large iron ore mines in the past ten years. At the same time, he has issued laws to restrict the sale of minerals through the Chamber of Commerce. Squeeze the interests of nobles. The minerals of the entire Windwind City must be drained through his hands. Every year, many nobles must surrender at least 30% of their profits to Earl Keaton.
　　 had to say that Earl Keaton's wrist was very good.
　　Through the above list, Stephen Zhou soon discovered that many emerging little nobles were promoted by the Earl of Keaton. These little nobles basically had no foundation, and many were promoted from his family knights. The nobles in the Howling City were attracted and suppressed, or differentiated, or attracted, or isolated. They had already been cleaned up by him.
　　Stephen Stephen put down the list, looked up at the Countess Elijah in front of her, and said in a deep voice: "Do you think if we want to deal with the count of Keaton, what nobles can be brought in?"
"These." The Countess Elijah took the pen and walked to the side of Stephen Chow. With a faint scent of women, she leaned to the side and made a few ticks on the list, whispering: "These are all cold winds The old nobles of the city, their dissatisfaction with Earl Keaton has accumulated for a long time."
　　 Some soft and full touch came from the shoulder.
　　 Stephen Zhou couldn't help but smoked, the woman was really dead, he said in a deep voice: "So who of these nobles can replace the Earl of Keaton to control Howling City?"
Hearing Stephen Zhou’s words, the Countess Eliya couldn’t help but start to move closer, her full and full chest almost squeezed on his arm, her voice trembling slightly:
You’re planning to support Will an aristocracy replace Earl Keaton to rule the Howling City?"
　　 Her voice has a hint of ambition and trembling, and there is a hint of heartbeat and unwillingness.
　　Steven nodded and said, "Yes."
"There must be a strong nobleman to quickly take over the mess left by the Earl of Keaton. I have no time to waste too much energy in this small place. This nobleman must have a high status and can overwhelm the other nobles, while possessing certain For the strength of the family, the family should have the right to speak in the north."
Countess Elijah died when he heard what he said. Obviously, Stephen Zhou did not intend to support her to control the City of Howling.
　　 This requires too much energy and costs too much.
　　 It was impossible to convince Stephen even if she pressed herself up, and Stephen obviously turned a blind eye to her temptation. It is impossible for a pair of orphans and widows to take control of Howling City. For Stephen Week, at most, they can only help them recover their lost territory and wealth. The Countess Eliya is obviously a clever woman, but a woman’s cleverness does not represent political talent, neither her strength nor her heritage can overwhelm other aborigines. However, she is obviously also an ambitious woman. Stephen Zhouguang knew from her voice that she had the idea of ​​replacing Count Keaton, but this ‘innocent’ ambition was to place all hope on him.
　　In order to avoid any unrealistic ideas of the Countess Elijah from affecting future plans, Stephen Zhou still said: "Your daughter."
　　 "Fran. Right?"
"She is special! Being able to awaken at such a young age, she must be a potential wizard in the future. Unless you plan to remarry in the future, otherwise your mind should be placed in the right place. To know that training a wizard needs Spending amazing wealth, as a mother you should pay more attention to preparing a little tuition for her."
　　 "Of course, the return is also very generous."
Countess Elijah is a mature aristocratic woman. Stephen Zhou decided to communicate in a noble way, that is the most direct interest. He used a tempting tone: "Wealth? Power? These are nothing?..."
　　 "Youth is not old! You will never die!..."
　　 "These are not difficult for powerful wizards."
　　 "Even if they pay a small price, they can allow ordinary people to acquire these abilities."
　　The aristocratic family is difficult to judge.
But women’s longing for [youth is not old] is undoubtedly, especially for the beautiful woman who is gradually feeling aging in her 30s, the Countess Eliya, this ability is even more fatal. !
　　Steven Week needed an assistant to collect the resource materials within the Aboriginal people, and the Countess Eliya was a suitable object because she had a brain and it was easier to control. Rather than let her have a daydream about the power of Howling City, it is better to wake her up first and let her transfer her energy to a useful place.
　　Steven Chou believes that a smart and beautiful woman will make a right choice between worldly power and youth.
　　 "Bah!..."
Hearing Stephen Zhou’s words, UU reads www.uukanshu.com Countess Eliya took a deep shudder and took a deep breath, and then she was bright, still tired of rubbing lightly beside him, but pointing The above list says: "If it replaces Earl Keaton. Then the most suitable candidates are undoubtedly Baron Carnot and Old Earl Sutton."
"The former is a new knight who is young, promising and powerful, and has a high reputation in the army. The latter is an old aristocrat of the Northland Orthodox. Although there are no outstanding people in the family, they have in-laws with many nobles. ."
　　 Although her daughter has the gift of a wizard, she doesn’t know how long to wait until she becomes a real wizard.
　　From the tone of Stephen Zhou, the Countess Elijah felt naturally that he could do this, which made her mind suddenly agitated. A simple paragraph by Stephen Zhou Jian made her pursuit a little bit higher, and has changed from the ambition of the power of Howling City to the desire of women for youth. No woman would want to see her face grow old, as long as there is such a possibility, she can immediately forget the idea of ​​chasing power.
　　Steven Zhou's eyes showed a hint of contempt.
　　 Nobility!
The Countess Eliya may be beautiful, elegant, graceful, and charming, but she also has the nature of the aristocratic nobility rooted in the bones.
　　 But that's fine, Stephen Week needs a piece that is easy to control.
　　 And he was also very interested in the little girl named Furan. Most of the awakening of the warlock occurred in adolescence, and she had already shown signs of awakening when she was only 5 or 6 years old.
　　 Such potential is possible to advance to the legendary field!
