Shirley's reaction made Stella understand the relationship between Nalant and the girls around him again.
Obviously, the relationship between Nalant and these girls is not the superior-subordinate relationship maintained by dignity like ordinary nobles.
Otherwise, Shirley would be crying and unwilling to reveal anything.
Of course, this situation only confirmed her previous thoughts.
"Okay! Shirley, then I won't look at Xiao Huihui now!"
"Then I want to ask something else. When the war horses in the valley were abnormal, was it Nalant who told you to send Xiao Huihui to do it?" Stella looked friendly.
After hearing this, little Shirley thought for a moment, then tilted her head and said, "Well! Miss Stella, you can't tell this Shirley either. The adults have told me not to tell anyone!"
"Why don't you ask other questions, such as what Shirley likes to eat and what kind of delicious food Shirley has eaten!"
Stella: “…”
Sure enough, I still can't reason with the little girl, because it will lower my IQ.
Now let’s go straight to the point and you’ll know the result!
Stella reflected on her previous unwiseness.
"Okay, Shirley, but I'll ask these questions later when I have time! In addition, I will still treat you to delicious food when you return to Tulip Castle!" Stella straightened her body with satisfaction.
"Really, Miss Stella? Is it the dragon fruit and sweet melon?"
"Well, it's dragon fruit and sweet melon!"
"Thank you, Miss Stella!" Shirley burst into tears and smiled.
"Miss Stella, Sir Narante seems to be calling you at the foot of the mountain!"
At this moment, Stella's guard came over and reported.
After hearing this, Stella came to the edge of the mountain and looked down.
"Miss Stella, can you come down here?" At this time, Nalant's voice came from the foot of the mountain.
Stella looked at Nalant's handsome face, her beautiful eyes flickered for a few times, and then she said crisply: "Okay!"
"Huh? Is it so happy?"
Stella was so straightforward that Nalant couldn't react.
I agreed without even asking why.
Previously, he saw that Stella was not ready to climb the mountain, and even those war horses could not seduce her.
"Hiss! Narant, are you so fast! And... you actually collected all the direct cavalry horses?" Just as Fish Stella finished talking, Boris and Rael just returned.
When the two of them saw Narant and his entourage with several horses wearing blue smocks, their jaws almost dropped.
It's not like the two of them had never had the idea of these war horses before, but their owners at that time were still there.
The two of them thought that even if they really tried to grab it, they would only be able to grab two or three horses directly under the cavalry at most, and they would have to take some risks to fight.
In this case, it is better to go to the trouble of those ordinary cavalry and grab more ordinary war horses.
"Well, why do you two have so few horses?" Nalant was more surprised than the two of them.
Because the two of them only led a dozen war horses each.
In this situation, if we don't each grab thirty or forty horses, it would be too embarrassing to count them as trophies.
For example, on Nalant's side, although he himself did not snatch those ordinary war horses, his subordinates took advantage of them and brought over twenty or thirty more.
"Stop it, Narant. If I had known, even if we took the risk, we would have followed your example and snatched the horses directly under the cavalry!" Boris was about to burst into tears. "Look at those horses, even though they are still standing now, they look like they are doing nothing.
Yes! But after a few hours, most of the war horses will lie down."
"Because their physical strength has been exhausted in the previous run, and their bodies have even been damaged!"
"Even if some of them survive by chance, they can only be used as ordinary horses for pulling goods, and they can no longer be used as war horses!"
"Where are the war horses that are directly under the cavalry like Nalant and you? They are considered the best war horses. Both their endurance and physique are much higher than ordinary war horses. There shouldn't be any big problems!"
"Is there such a thing?" Nalant said in surprise.
Although relying on the memory of the original owner, he can more or less distinguish the quality of the war horse.
But for deeper knowledge, it means that seven orifices are understood and six are understood, but none is understood.
So I really didn’t expect such a thing to happen before.
"Narant, it's true. Boris and I picked out the dozen or so horses, which are considered to be the strongest and most likely to be safe among them. It took a long time to select them!" Rael!
At this time, he also echoed with a distressed voice.
"Uh, okay..." Nalant was speechless. It seemed that the two of them really suffered a loss this time, and it was a pity that thousands of war horses in the valley were lost.
"Boris, Rael, don't be discouraged. The Autumn March will take a long time, and there will be plenty of horses by then!" In the end, Nalant could only pat the two of them on the shoulders to express comfort.
At this time, Stella finally climbed down along the rope.
Even though Stella is a woman, with the blessing of the Silver Knight and wearing light armor, her figure is more dexterous than Nalant.
"Miss Stella!"
"Miss Stella!"
The three of them greeted each other one after another.
"Well, Nalant, why did you come down to see me?" Stella nodded, the coldness on her face had returned, and she looked at the horses around her. In fact, she had already guessed what Nalant was thinking.
"That's right, Miss Stella, you see I have a lot of trophies, can you help me protect one or two later!" Nalant didn't play tricks and spoke directly.
The reinforcements over there, led by the king and a group of earls, had already blended into the crowd, leaving him little time.
"Well, there are quite a lot of them. They are all high-quality horses directly under the cavalry, and they also have armor. But this can easily arouse the covetousness of others!" Stella nodded.
These war horses alone are worth nearly ten thousand gold coins.
With such wealth, not to mention several earls, even the king would probably be tempted.
After all, even if the king wanted to organize so many high-quality war horses and then forge the vests, it would still cost a huge amount of gold coins and several years.
Not to mention the earls, the Tulip family only has less than 200 high-quality war horses.
If Nalant had not been lucky and the Northern Principality was rich in war horses, it would have been absolutely impossible to obtain such a harvest.
After saying that, after a pause, Stella continued: "But, Narant, why should I help you out of thin air? Many earls will be jealous of these horses, and my father will have to endure a lot by then.
pressure!"
"Miss Stella, of course I won't let you help out of thin air. Once the matter is completed, I am willing to pay ten high-quality war horses as reward."
Nalant was not surprised, and he had already made a plan in his heart. Ten high-quality horses in exchange for 100% safe trophies. This deal was definitely a good deal.
There is even the possibility of bargaining, and Narant is only talking about the minimum payment now.
Hearing this, Stella raised the corners of her mouth slightly, shook her head and said, "I don't need a war horse!"
