When Tang En was thinking about how to make pharmaceuticals for the guard at home, Uncle Depp, who had set off, never stopped for a moment, and traveled overnight. It took five or six days to travel, and it took only three days to arrive.
Fort Caspari, located north of Ellington, where the Ladia hills disappear, and to the west is the remnant of the Ambris Mountains, and Fort Caspari is located on one of the remaining veins. The tens-meter-high castle wrapped the entire mountain tightly, and there were several villages scattered around it. Vaguely farmers in the fields could be seen.
Just by looking at it, you know that Fort Casparmi is much better than Ellington.
Generally speaking, few barons will have a territory. Baron Hogg sits in Ellington because Ellington was originally an abandoned territory. Being assigned here as a lord is basically a means of punishing some aristocracy. In the period when there was no fixed lord, the lords here took turns to sit, and because there was no fixed lord, Ellington never developed.
The full name of Baron Hogg is Hogg Pope. The Pope family is not a very well-known family in the capital of the city. It can only be regarded as a small family. It is estimated that the big family is behind the before Hogg picks it up. Such a cheap one.
Unlike the Baron Duvieux in Kaspermy, the full name of Duviere is Dourier Qadir. He is a member of the Yalinks Cardier family. He is a strong man who can obtain Kaspermy The territory was won by the family in the aristocratic parliament.
The location of Kasparmy is very good. It is located northwest of the empire's abdomen, to the west is the Ambris Mountains, a natural barrier, to the north is the mark of the holy sword. The army will not invade the Illus Empire through the marks of the Divine Sword-in fact, those countries have been fighting each other in recent years and have no time to care about the Illus Empire in the sunset.
Therefore, Castle Casparmi is very safe. It is a place suitable for the noble children's peace of mind to develop and work hard-of course, it is not a very good place. From this we can see that Baron De Ville's status in the family is also very ordinary.
But this is enough to make Baron De Vieue very nourished.
Unfortunately, he didn't know he reached into Tang En's pocket.
So his trouble came.
The steward entered the door, ignoring the few sexiness beside Baron Duviere, and said very seriously: "Master Baron! There is important news!"
Baron Duvieus frowned slightly: "Important?"
"Very important."
"You go to the bedroom and wait for me."
Baron DeViere had to dispel those unscrupulous, disturbed by good things, and his face was unhappy: "Cole, you'd better have something really important to report, otherwise I must treat you this month Your salary is deducted! "
Butler Cole just didn't hear: "Master Baron, something happened to the mine."
The face of Baron Duvieux was confused: "mines? Do we have mines?"
"Sir, Ellington, Brussels Iron Mine ..."
"Oh! Well, Ellington's Brussels Iron Mine, I was robbed of it. I forgot about it. Hog's waste has not responded yet. I think it was abandoned completely."
Baron De Vieue waved his hand, impatiently: "What can happen there? Is it possible that Hogg would dare to take it back?"
"Master Baron, the mine was really taken back, but it wasn't Hogg."
Butler Cole said, "A soldier was escorted back by Ellington's men and sent news. Ellington has now changed a lord named Down."
"Change the lord again? I have been here for ten years. Has Ellington changed seven or eight lords? Hogg is still the longest."
Drouet frowned slightly. "Where does this Don come from?"
"It is an imperial baron. It is said that he paid for the identity of Lord Ellington. No other information is known."
"Spend money on Ellington?"
Baron Dewey was stunned: "Is that guy an idiot? He actually bought Ellington? Didn't he know that there was nothing poor there?"
"Sir, don't forget that Baron Hogg has squeezed a lot of oil and water in three years ..."
"It's not worth the money to buy there ... how much gold did he spend?"
"I don't know ... sir, the point is, the iron mine was taken back by that Tang En."
"how is this possible."
Baron DeViere said indifferently: "I know the broken place in Ellington, there are few people, only more than one hundred people voluntarily formed a militia team, how could it beat the one hundred and fifty elite soldiers I sent? That steward ... what's his name? "
"Master, Rex."
"Yes! Rex, didn't I send him a bodyguard?-Eddie, yes, that bodyguard was called Eddie, and hiring him would cost me more than a thousand gold coins a year!"
Helper Cole looked helpless: "Sir, Rex and Eddie are dead ... Sir, let's meet with the messenger. One of our soldiers will follow. This should be true."
"Send a messenger? Okay, I'll see this messenger!"
Baron De Vérie put on his clothes and went with the housekeeper to meet Uncle Depp and the soldier.
As soon as the soldier saw the Baron Duvieux, he knelt on the ground: "Master Lord!"
Baron Dewey ignored the sorrow of the soldier and stared at Uncle Depp: "Are you the messenger of Ellington? Anything to say?"
Uncle Depp had the scroll of teleportation given to him by Tang En. At this moment, he was not hesitant. He took out the letter and said loudly: "This is the letter from Lord Lord Ellington. Duvieux? "
"Bold! How dare a farmer call my name!"
Baron De Vieue chilled: "With this, I can punish you!"
"I'm the Ellington Courier, you can't kill me."
Uncle Depp sneered: "Come on."
"go with."
Butler Cole took the letter in the past, gave Uncle Depp a serious look, and then went back and handed it to Duvieux.
Duvie opened the envelope and looked up.
"To Lord Casparmi, Baron Duviere."
"Baron Duviere, this is our first conversation, but I am a lazy man, so I am no longer polite, we are straight into the subject."
Seeing this line of text, Baron De Ville revealed his disdain: "This is like an imperial nobleman, and there is a rush of earth in the line!"
But there was no way, he still had to hold his nose to watch.
"The area is delineated according to the laws of the Empire. The Brussels Iron Mine is the inherent territory of Ellington and I have recovered it."
"The mine manager Rex and Durum intend to use the bodyguards to murder the lord, and they have now been killed."
"The 150 soldiers you sent to the mine were killed by 49 in the battle. We deducted one person accompanying the messenger. At present, 100 soldiers were taken into our custody. After my consideration, I decided to use each The soldier's low price of one hundred gold coins, please redeem it. The ransom totals 10,000 gold coins. The soldier who accompanied him is an extra gift. Please give it a five-star praise. "
One hundred gold coins per soldier? One hundred soldiers is ten thousand gold coins?
Baron DeViere's eyelids flickered. Did Tang En think his gold coins were all rolled up? And what do these five-star reviews mean? Some magic spell?
"Besides, because I was responsible for the living, lodging and accommodation of this hundred soldiers, which consumed a lot of manpower and materials in Ellington, I had to inform you that we need to charge a resettlement fee for each soldier per day The price of ten gold coins is levied for meals. The specific amount will be calculated separately when the ransom is paid, without further notice, so for your sake, please redeem these soldiers as soon as possible. "
"What a joke!"
Baron DeViere growled: "Each soldier's standard meal of ten gold coins a day !? What do they eat?"
Even Baron De Vieue himself had a standard meal cost of only ten gold coins a day. Did these soldiers catch up to his standard? Isn't this insulting his nobility! ?
Cole said, "Sir, please calm down and talk later."
Baron Duviere panted, and kept watching.
"Besides that, I also learned that you have illegally occupied the Brussels iron mine for a long time and illegally made a lot of wealth, and the former lord Hogg Pope did not recover this wealth, which belongs to Ellington, In view of my recent appointment and financial constraints, I have to pursue illegal gains from you. "
"It is reported that you have occupied the Brussels Iron Mine for more than three years. Because you are lazy, you don't count the odds, and you add up four years as a whole number for a total of 1,500 days."
Duviere almost vomited blood, aside from this debt recovery statement, the following fractions are not counted. What does it mean to make four years? Is there anything like this! ?
"One thousand and five hundred days! This is obviously more than six years! There are whole numbers there !? Does he think I don't know how to count?"
Cole whispered: "Lord Lord, one thousand five hundred days, which is more than four months a month ..."
"I want you nonsense!"
Baron DeViere slaps up and yells, "My math teacher is dead soon!"
Cole stepped down, covering his face, and Duvie continued to watch with anger.
"According to my analysis of the mine, your daily profit from the mine is estimated to be one thousand gold coins. Therefore, after calculation, you should compensate Ellington for a total of 1.5 million gold coins-regarding late payment and Interest is no longer levied by the benevolent lord. "
"Please prepare this amount as soon as possible and go to Ellington to redeem the soldiers as soon as possible after receiving this letter."
"Lord Ellington, Down, order at the Ellington House on the 24th jubilee of the 849 calendar."
After reading the letter, Mr. Duviere's face was already iron-blue, and the rage tore the letter out of thin air.
"Presumptuous! Arrogance! Bold! 15 million gold coins !? Is he crazy !?"
Duvie snarled: "Also ask me for compensation !? Ask for ransom !? Recovery of illegal income !? Who does he think he is !?"
"soldier!"
Armed soldiers swarmed in.
Devière shouted at Uncle Depp: "Drag the two out and chop it down! Order to go! I want to send troops to level Ellington!"
The soldier kneeling on the ground changed his face: "Master Lord!"
"Come here without wanting to die!"
Uncle Depp shouted, grabbed the soldier, and shouted to Baron De Ville: "You will regret this decision! I promise in the name of Lord Lord!"
When the soldiers rushed up, Uncle Depp severely tore up the teleportation scroll, and a flash of light passed, and the two disappeared from the sight of Baron Duviere in an instant.
"Where are they !?"
"Master Lord," Cole was shocked, "the farmer seems to have left with a teleporting scroll!"
"Reel of Reel !? How is it possible! No master can buy the Reel of Reel! How could an Ellington farmer afford it!"
"Perhaps it was given to him by his lord?"
"Impossible! How could a lord of soils buy a teleporter!"
Duvie snarled: "Whatever it is, go down, I want my soldiers to flatten Ellington! I want that Down to kneel in front of me and lick my boots!"
"Your will!"
