Chapter 15 Superficial Friendship

Allen lay leisurely on the lounge chair.

According to Andy's description, Allen probably understood the ins and outs of the matter.

The Baroness of Ironstone Territory was originally named Barbara Hugo, and she was the biological sister of Baron Jean Hugo of Woodcane Territory. When Baron Currit was granted the title of Ironstone Territory, Baron Jean transferred his biological sister to Baron Jean on the recommendation of Viscount Bernard.

Barbara married Currit.

On the basis of the marriage, the two territories will trade with each other, and the caravans from the Wooden Territory will frequently pass through the Iron Stone Territory in the future. This is one of the reasons why Baron Jean agreed to marry Kurit.

Here Allen couldn't help but sigh. Viscount Bernard had the foresight and attached great importance to Kurit. He first granted the Iron Stone Territory to Kurit. The Iron Stone Territory sealed the long-standing trade channel of the Wooden Vine Territory, and then personally handed it over to Kurit.

It was recommended that Kurit marry the Woodcan Territory, which not only accelerated the development of the Iron Stone Territory, but also made it easier for Kurit to integrate into the aristocratic system of the entire viscounty territory.

Because Kurit obtained the fiefdom through his sister, he was granted the title of baron for his meritorious deeds. Even if the other barons did not express it, they would inevitably feel uncomfortable in their hearts, and it would be difficult for Kurit to integrate into the original aristocracy.

The system is in.

When Viscount Bernard asked Baron Currit to marry Barbara, he also took a fancy to the status of Mu Teng in the viscounty. Due to the existence of Huo Mu Teng, Mu Teng developed rapidly by relying on Huo Mu Teng, and its strength was already beyond that of Zao Mu.

With the second largest barony outside the territory, and the endorsement of Baron Jean and Viscount Bernard, it would be difficult for Currit to do so, unless he wanted to die.

Shaking the wine glass in his hand, Allen squinted his eyes and figured out Viscount Bernard's main intention in this matter. As expected, it is indeed not easy to be a Viscount.

People's minds change, and loyalty cannot remain unchanged for a long time. If Viscount Bernard wants to stabilize the rule of the viscounty, he must not only be strong himself, but also win the allegiance of many baronies in the territory, even if it is superficial.

Let Currit marry into the Hugo family. Viscount Bernard also considered it. Currit had the support of the Hugo family, which also represented the union of the Wood Vine Territory and the Iron Stone Territory in disguise. He also gained the support of the Hugo Family.

Coupled with his eldest son's jujube collar, the territory is impregnable.

The Wooden Vine Territory, Iron Stone Territory and the Viscounty Territory directly under the jurisdiction of Viscount Bernard concentrated one-half of the entire force. Allen had to admit that in this situation, it would be difficult for even himself to break the situation.

Allen shook his head, with a hint of schadenfreude on his face.

What a pity! Viscount Bernard's plan was perfect, but the character of Baron Currit was neglected. With the popularity of ore, in less than seven years, the strength of the Iron Stone Territory and the Wood Vine Territory were already comparable.

The growth of the Ironstone Territory not only strengthened the reputation of the Ironstone Territory, but also strengthened the spirit of Baron Kurit. From an unknown commoner to a respected baron, Kurit was proud of his life, but nothing was perfect, such as

Currit's wife, Barbara.

As the sister of Baron Woodcane, Barbara did not marry Baron Currit until she was 20 years old. It was not because she had high vision or was unwilling to marry. The fact was that she really couldn't get married.

After all, it is wrong to marry a commoner if you are not from a good family; marry a noble, but no one is willing, after all, each baron does not want to push his son into the pit of fire.

After all, Miss Barbara is famous for weighing 300 kilograms. If the aristocratic lady eats and gets fat, her family will warn her, 'If you eat any more, you will become Barbara.'

So in everyone's opinion, Barbara is a real match for marrying the ugly Currit, but Currit doesn't think so.

His life can be considered extremely perfect. Apart from not having a Breakthrough Knight, the thing he hates the most is his wife Barbara.

In the first few years, Kurit was still pretending, but as the strength of the territory grew, Kurit didn't even bother to pretend. He wouldn't sleep with Barbara every day, thinking about the circles of fat.

It's so disgusting that I can't even take another look at it.

This was also the beginning of the break between Baron Currit and the Wood Cane Territory. At the end of last year, Barbara could no longer bear this kind of treatment and secretly ran back to the Wood Cane Territory to cry to Baron Hugo. When Baron Jean learned that he was furious and Ku

Ritter had a quarrel.

Unexpectedly, this quarrel aroused all the anger of Kurit in the past few years, and he immediately blocked the caravan of Muto leader. As long as they passed through the territory, they would be charged a 20% tax. This required Muto leader.

Of course I didn't want to agree, but for the sake of caravan trade, I had no choice but to bite the bullet and endure it. In this way, the relationship between the two territories became worse and worse, and it continues to this day.

However, in order to save the face of the nobles on both sides, no one on either side spread the news. This is why Allen did not know. This news was heard by Ada from his sister, which is quite reliable, because he has not seen it for several months.

Baroness, which means that Barbara is very likely to have really returned to the Wood Cane Territory.

Looking at Andy standing next to him, Allen said: "Send the intelligence personnel of the Tie Shi collar to find out the exact time of the Mu Teng collar caravan's delivery of the Fire Vine Clothes. Once confirmed, report it in time."

"Yes, Lord Baron." Andy seemed to have thought of something, his face changed slightly, but he didn't say anything after all, and turned around and exited the hall.

The reason why Allen inquired about the Mu Teng Leader's caravan was to use the caravan to light the fuse between the two territories. Every month, the Mu Teng Leader would use the silk from the Fire Mu Teng in his territory to make the Fire Vine Clothes used by the knights.

, and then bring it to the Element Merchant Guild for sale.

After wiping the wine glass in his hand, Allen placed it on the table. He calculated that today is July 3rd. There are still two months left before wheat is planted, and one and a half months left before the first batch of giant frogs mature.

It is estimated that there is still half a month before the seven mares give birth. The curare and iron trees have just sprouted, but the flame wheat has matured in the past few days, and Allen has not had time to pick it.

No one else was summoned to help. In order to keep it secret, Flame Wheat only had a few guards guarding Flame Wheat except Allen and the Charles family. They knew that their lord had a magical plant.

Allen decided to go alone and pick all the ripe flame wheat fruits. Without the help of others, Allen picked very slowly because he could not harvest them like ordinary wheat. Allen could only pick one plant.

Take them off one plant at a time.

"Eaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa;" Xiaoyi saw Allen busy picking flame wheat, and curiously turned around above Allen's head.

After a while, Xiaoyi also began to imitate Allen's behavior, picking fruits one by one and delivering them to Allen like a treasure.

After a while, probably feeling too tired from picking flame wheat, the little boy began to lie motionless on top of Allen's head, opening his eyes from time to time to look at Allen.

Allen didn't care about the little buzz on his head and picked as many flame wheat as possible.

Half an hour later.

"Ey!...Ey!"

Xiaoyi shouted impatiently, and along with Xiaoyi's cry, the flame wheat mother plant began to emit rich fire elements to the entire flame wheat. After absorbing the flame wheat, the flame wheat in the wheat field began to spontaneously

The broken wheat ears, led by the fire element flow, gathered into a pile and piled it in front of Allen.

Allen stood there blankly, looking confused at this time. He didn't expect that Mai Ling could have such a function and could collect fruits on his own, but he didn't know whether it was just a little boy who could do this or whether other plant spirits had this ability.
