After taking control of the castle, Nalant asked Catherine to call Quick and others.
Immediately, he began to search for loot all over the castle.
Duke and Chel were already tied tightly with ropes and placed on a soft chair to stay there.
Nalant's guards, accompanied by the castle steward, began to search for valuable items inch by inch in the castle.
Soon, all the silver tableware sets, gold gestures and small gold ornaments, or exquisite copper candlesticks in the castle were found.
Duke's eyes widened as he watched items being delivered to the vestibule one after another. They were all precious things in his castle.
Originally, the Northern Principality did not have many metal deposits of all kinds, and these gold and silver objects were all luxuries to decorate the castle. But in the end, none of these good things were left, and all of them had to be snatched away by Nalant.
"Why such a small amount?" However, what made Duke vomit blood even more was that Nalant didn't wrinkle up when he saw these trophies, feeling that they were too little.
"Sir, we also found more than a hundred gold coins in the warehouse, plus hundreds of silver coins and thousands of copper plates. The total value should be more than one hundred and fifty gold coins!"
"Really? It's still too little! Are you sure you haven't missed anything? This is the Baron's Castle!" Nalant was greatly disappointed. How could the well-established Baron's Castle feel poorer than his own Lucky Castle?
"Your Excellency Nalant, how can we be poor here? Our Omi family is richer than many barons!" Duke immediately stopped working. By welcoming the caravans, the gold coins they earned were richer than those of the small nobles in the hinterland.
too much.
At this time, Quick also gave the same explanation, "Sir, I questioned the castle steward before, and he said that their northern principality's coins are scarce. In addition to the purchase and sale of bulk items, most of the time they use grain or livestock to trade."
"There are very few gold coins in their castle, but they have enough food to store several warehouses, and there are also many cattle and sheep on the farm outside the castle." Quick replied immediately.
"Is that so?" Nalant was speechless and did not refute Duke's words, but he also stood up from the soft chair at that moment, "Then I will go and see for myself!"
With that said, Nalant entered the castle himself and started searching everywhere.
Finally, he was sure that the entire castle had been carefully searched by Quick and others. Even a secret compartment in the baron's master bedroom on the third floor was opened, and the gold statuette and some gold and silver jewelry were looted from there.
of.
Nalant had no choice but to go to the study again.
There are many books in the study room, and the bookshelves are now in a mess.
Originally, these books were worth some money, but unfortunately Narant was now behind enemy lines, so it was impossible to move these back.
He ignored the bookshelves, instead came to the exquisite desk, and then raised his hand to knock on it.
Nalant was very impressed by the treasure hidden on the desk.
Boom!
"Hey, there really is!"
What Nalant didn't expect was that he actually found a hidden compartment in the desk.
This secret compartment is also placed at the inner end of the drawer, and the concealment method is similar to the long table on the sea ship.
"You must not put anything in the desk in the future! This is simply a gift!" Nalant found the secret compartment on the desk twice in succession and immediately warned himself.
This thing is more convenient than just placing it on the table.
Immediately, Nalant opened the secret compartment excitedly.
"Huh? Why is it another book?" However, what disappointed Nalant was that there was no valuable object in the secret room, but an old book.
The book was very thin, and more importantly, the text on it was incomprehensible to Nalant. It was the same text as the one found on the last ship.
However, this one is much simpler than the last one. Not only is the cover material ordinary, but it also has only a few pages.
Suddenly, Nalant felt uninterested. He didn't recognize the words in the book, and he didn't know if he would ever have the chance to read the contents.
Narante came downstairs with the book and asked Duke if he knew the words on it.
But Duke had a confused look on his face. It was obvious that not only did he not recognize it, he didn't even know that there was such a book in the castle.
Finally, Nalant put the books and other valuable small items into the space ring, and then prepared to set off again.
He came here this time to disturb the rear of the Northern Principality, so he had to move quickly.
Although he coveted the cattle and sheep in Baron Omi, Nalan could only give up temporarily and see if it was possible to take them away when he returned.
However, instead of taking away the cattle and sheep, the craftsman Narant asked Quick and others to tie them up.
Including carpenters, blacksmiths, tailors, etc.
After all, capturing Duke and Chel was the same thing. He might as well capture a few more. It was easier for people to carry them around than those animals.
"Sir, all the prisoners have been tied up and are ready to go at any time!"
"Very good, let's set off!"
Narant waved his hand and the team continued to set off.
He has already tasted the benefits of Baron Omi, and now that the Marquis of Leeson has an empty rear, it is a great opportunity for him to make a fortune.
In addition, before the news of his appearance spread, he planned to repeat his old tricks to see if he could go to other territories to deceive the castle.
Soon, Nalant and his party arrived at another barony on the edge of the desert.
This time, in order to be more realistic, Nalant left behind barbarian guards and most of the serfs.
He only brought a team of more than 300 people into the town. After entering the town, he also asked his men to spend generously and buy some wine and meat.
This trick worked as expected, and it didn't take long for news to reach the castle, saying that a generous caravan had arrived in the town.
Narante continued to use the name of Harry Potter to successfully gain the trust of the remaining heirs of the barony.
By the time the baron's heir took him into the castle, there was no suspense about what would happen next.
…
"Duke, are you here too?" When the eldest son of the castle was tied up and loaded into the car, he immediately shouted in surprise when he saw Duke, who was also tied up firmly.
The two baronies are not far apart, so they must know each other.
"Yes, Karen, have you also invited Mr. Harry to enter the castle?" Duke originally looked like he was dying, but when he saw Karen, who was also captured, he had a look of sympathy on his face.
But it's also mixed with a hint of schadenfreude.
"You too!" Karen suddenly froze, thinking about how he had lured a wolf into the house, he really wanted to vomit three liters of blood.
"Hey, you two, don't look like this. You should be glad that you invited my family to enter the castle. This way there will be no casualties, otherwise the losses will be even greater!" Quick heard the conversation between the two and immediately comforted him with a smile.
One sentence.
However, in the face of Quick's safety, the two people naturally did not respond. They simply did not believe that Nalant could enter the castle if the castle door was closed.
Soon, Nalant set off again with a second wave of prisoners. The spoils of this second castle were similar to those of Baron Omi, and the value of the property was more than two hundred gold coins.
In addition to the male and female servants in the castle, the captives included more than a dozen craftsmen.
"Lord Nalant, if we continue deeper, we will reach the Viscounty of Wick!" During the march, the captive guard who was responsible for leading the way reminded in a low voice.
"Huh? Viscount territory?" Nalant immediately became interested after hearing this.
He had already had the experience of conquering the castle twice without a fight, and he felt that he could do it a few more times.
