Lord Lake couldn't stand it at first and couldn't restrain the shame and anger in his heart.
"Lord Mero, what do you mean? Are you still planning to humiliate us?"
Aslan looked at Lord Lake with great interest. Among the lords present, Lord Lake definitely belonged to the young group. He was initially estimated to be no more than twenty-five years old. He was dressed in a military uniform and had a tall and powerful figure, giving him the air of a fierce general.
"Which lord are you?"
"My lord is Lord Laketown!" When Lord Lake shouted these words, he raised his head quite proudly.
It's just that he didn't notice that the other lords around him had taken a few steps away from him.
Compared to Lord Lake, the new lord, the other lords are all experienced and mature. Naturally, Lord Mero felt that his expression turned cold instantly after hearing Lord Lake announce his identity.
Thinking of Lord Merlo almost dying on the battlefield, there was more than a 90% chance that he was tricked by the old knight Thor. He could only have a good face.
"Then the coalition commander Knight Thor is yours?" Aslan leaned back in his chair and asked slowly.
No matter how dull Lord Lake is, he still feels the dangerous atmosphere around him.
"Yes! It's just what he did..."
Before Lord Lake finished speaking, the sound of breaking wind sounded. When the other lords came to their senses, dozens of sharp arrows came through the wind.
Puff puff……
The muffled sound kept ringing, which was the sound of sharp arrows being shot into the body.
The armor Lord Lake wore was almost like paper in front of the Merlot Crossbow.
The tall Lord Lake was carried away by dozens of sharp arrows, and blood fell all over the sky.
Baron Jimmy's heart suddenly trembled when he saw it, and he realized that his end was not good.
At this time, Baron Jimmy mustered up the courage to look at the young man on the general stage.
"Why is it him?"
Baron Jimmy recalled the handsome young man he met in Billy City some time ago. At that time, he only thought that this young man was not simple. He never expected that he was the recently popular Lord Mero and the ninth disciple of the Marquis of Medea.
Aslan also recognized Baron Jimmy, but he did not expect such a coincidence.
"This world is really small! Baron Jimmy, please tell me how to compensate me. If the compensation satisfies me, I may consider not killing you." Aslan said directly.
This sentence completely frightened the remaining nine lords. Lord Lake's warning was not far away, and the clear smell of blood was still lingering around the tip of their noses.
Lord Merlot will really kill them.
There is no aristocratic rule at all, and there is no aristocratic demeanor at all.
But no one dared to stand up to refute and accuse.
They finally understood why Miss Watini said she was going to bleed profusely.
It can't be done without severe bleeding, otherwise he will die.
Baron Jimmy didn't care about any aristocratic demeanor and knelt down on his knees. Is face and dignity more important than life?
Because he remembered the news that his subordinates had brought back to him, that Lord Mero was an absolute tyrant.
"Master Ninth, I am willing to use all my savings to compensate you."
Aslan smiled and nodded.
"Tell me how much your savings are? See if you can satisfy me."
Baron Jimmy's lips twitched, and the other lords almost cried.
In the past, saying such words meant that they were willing to pay huge compensation, but Lord Mero asked such a rhetorical question, and asked them to answer it, and they would really have to spend all their money.
If we don’t have enough money, wouldn’t we still have to borrow it?
Regarding the family fortune of the territory, Baron Jimmy has already made plans, but now that the matter has come to this point, he can only bite the bullet and say it.
The worst case scenario is to start from scratch.
"There are still 40 million jins of grain in the territory, including 25 million jins of barley, 10 million jins of wheat, and 5 million jins of crops."
When Baron Jimmy reported the granary reserves in Jimmy Town, Aslan opened his mouth subconsciously. Although he had expected that Jimmy Town would be rich in food, he did not expect that there would be so much.
With a grain reserve of 200,000 tons and a town with a population of tens of thousands, Aslan had to admit that Jimmy Town was worthy of being one of the largest grain producers in the Billy region.
"There are 1,650 weapons, including 1,120 spears, and..."
"All weapons have been confiscated, and 38 million jins of grain have been confiscated. Continue."
Aslan said, thinking he was very harsh.
Baron Jimmy couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. It would be considered generous not to take it all and increase the share.
"Twenty-five thousand six hundred and seventy-two gold coins, about 760,000 silver coins, copper coins..."
"Except for the copper coins, everything else is confiscated." Aslan said calmly.
Baron Jimmy nodded with a strange expression. He had just reported his property in the territory, not his property in Billy City. It must be twice as much!
"That's it, the things will be delivered to Merlin Fortress within three days, do you understand?" Aslan said with a serious face.
Considering that he has exploited 90% of the property in Baron Jimmy's territory, these things should be worth hundreds of thousands of gold coins.
"Thank you, Master Ninth, for your magnanimity!! I'll have someone make arrangements right away."
Baron Jimmy saluted quickly and said, he also breathed a sigh of relief. Now that he has accepted the compensation, he can no longer take advantage of the golden egg in his territory.
Seeing that Baron Jimmy solved the compensation issue so lightly, the other lords also breathed a sigh of relief and expressed their willingness to compensate according to Jimmy Baron's specifications. However, the territory's financial resources were limited and they hoped to pay in installments.
Aslan didn't doubt that he was there. After all, his starting point in his previous life was too high. After coming out of the Merlot area, he became a great lord. At that time, Baron Jimmy was directly annexed, so he didn't know the urination of the nobles.
He only used his knowledge to evaluate the wealth of the lord's territory, ignoring the accumulation of wealth by the nobles over generations.
After receiving millions of gold coins in compensation in an understatement, Aslan felt confused as to when the money bags of these wealthy landowners had been opened so easily.
In fact, this is all because Aslan is a disciple of Marquis Medea, and they are all lords under Marquis Medea and are under her jurisdiction.
If they defeat Aslan, they will definitely rush into the Mero region and plunder them. In fact, they will do this every few years. Although the Mero region is a barren place, the population growth is very stable. Every few years, they will do this.
The population that has been plundered for a period of time will soon be filled again because of the vacant food quota.
This kind of thing is completely within the scope of the rules among nobles. If Marquis Medea knew it, he would not stand up for Aslan. At most, it would only bring humiliation to Marquis Medea. For such a small problem, it is easy for Watty to get involved.
Ni can mediate it and can completely ignore it. This is why so many lords are keen to attack the Mero region.
With such a stable population source and 100% slaves, how could they not be tempted?
