Thousands of sparks

Chapter 68 The Duke of Saar
Everyone is a thousand-year-old fox, why are you pretending to be a chat with me here?

Such a line suddenly popped up in Dusand's mind, and it also had a strong flavor of Tianjin.

Of course, he couldn't say this directly.Dusand still has doubts about many things, and he hopes to get some more information from Colt.

Like... who are the backers behind the fishing company.

A fishing company existed in Boysenk for 120 years in a near-slavery operation.They are stuck with the population, and have never become a town to pay taxes to the New Salle Colonial Hall.The turtles they produced were sold to 42 of the empire's 36 colonial planets, and they dared to hire "gangsters" to directly fire at the navy's experimental convoy.

They were too bold, unscrupulous and daring.

The past luck and the long-term resignation of the poor may have given them some confidence in their arrogance, but this is certainly not their main reliance.

Du Sande is eager to know who gave them such courage.

Anyway, it must not be Liang Jingru.

Time slipped by, and the guards guarding Dusand and Colt gradually relaxed their vigilance.They started walking out of the cave - and it was time for supper.It is said that there are pancakes for dinner today.This made the caretakers very happy.

Dusande was happy too—Colt was starting to talk to him.

"Lord Dusand." Colt's voice came out along the railing. The old man leaned against the wall, turned sideways to avoid pressing on the wound on his shoulder, and then proudly said, "We meet again."

Dusande ignored him.A ten-year-old child who has been molested by others will not be in a good mood in a prison.The action that is more in line with this logic should be to completely ignore people or swear.

Dusand chose the reaction mode of ignoring others, and then quietly waited for this Mr. Colt's performance.

"You see, we are not the enemy." Colt moved his legs and said with a smile, "You should have seen that the actions of these poor people are unpredictable and illogical. They are greedy and ignorant, and they have no morals at all. and any shred of respectable human qualities."

"Compared with those poor people, we... well-educated free people and nobles are more like creatures of the same species." Colt pointed to himself, then pointed to Dusand - he seemed He didn't care about Dusand's behavior of turning his back on him, but said very sincerely, "They are not credible, unreliable, and even more incomprehensible. In order to make them work, we need to make great efforts. Mr. Lord, we Not enemies, we're just people using different means to achieve the same end."

Du Sande deliberately didn't speak just now, but now he doesn't want to speak at all.There's really nothing to say to this idiot.

Tired, destroy it.

"I call you master because the master I serve is indeed a nobleman with a higher status and status. From the source, you and your family are all derived from this master's family. We are actually our own people. " Colt explained with a smile, "please be calm, two days later, an elite team will come to rescue us. After that, we will be able to get rid of these untouchables and return to the civilized world .”

Although I want the old man to explode instantly on the spot, lest my "young" heart be shocked again.But Du Sande keenly grasped the two key points of the above sentence.

"Aristocrats of Higher Status" and "Two Days Later".

"A nobler nobleman? A certain count?" Dusande finally spoke, and he asked in a mocking tone, "People in small places just don't know much. How much nobler can a mere count be than my mother?"

Dussand's jibes are based on Newsale's current unique political system.At present, there are more than 20 earl families in the whole of Nusaal, but I don’t know whether it is God’s intention or these earls are really too hip.Whether it is a court earl directly conferred by His Majesty the Emperor, or an earl conferred by His Majesty the Marquis and Duke... In short, none of the more than 20 earls can come up with something to say.

They have barely any leverage over Newsale.It is content to guard one's own fief and be an ordinary pastoral nobleman.There is not even much industry in the city of Newsail.

Compared with Dusand's parents, these earls can indeed be regarded as unprogressive.

"Of course not the earl." The old man said with a smile, "The master I serve is noble..." He looked at the little boy in front of him, then pointed to the ceiling with his finger, "Better than the one your family is loyal to..." Fayette is higher."

Du Sande's expression froze.

"Mr. Marquis has sent a letter." In the office of the Speaker of the House of Commons in Upper Albin, Morse, who looked a little tired, walked in with an envelope.He respectfully put the envelope in front of Androni, then took a step back and said, "I also brought a message from Mr. Marquis."

"Let's talk." Androni picked up the letter opener in front of her, and after confirming that the sealing seal on the envelope was intact, she opened the envelope with the letter opener.She pulled out the letter paper, unfolded it and quickly read the content on it.

"Mr. Marquis, please let me tell you that it is not the best solution to attack the Bosenk Fishing Company at present." Morse put his hands behind his back and stood upright, "There is Duke Saar in the Bosenk Fishing Company." Investment, and this investment has provided Mr. Duke's family with very generous returns in the past 100 years."

Androni put down the letter in her hand and rubbed her swollen forehead.

A duke would be the most powerful man in the whole colony.His family owns nearly one-tenth of the land ownership of this colonial star, and 5% of the tax revenue of the entire planet will be handed over to Mr. Duke's family to reward his ancestors for discovering and developing Newsail 175 years ago. achievements.

And now this Mr. Duke Saar... his desire for money is even confusing.

Harold, who planned to directly introduce the Star Thief to carry out the massacre at the Androni Ball, obtained the title of Lord by virtue of his "tribute" to the current Duke of Thrall.Androni would agree to Dusand's plan-to get rid of Harold through the hands of the Heraldry Office-also to prevent excessive stimulation of the duke.

Mr. Duke loves the gold pound, and he controls and invests in almost all the mining businesses on Newsail.And anyone who hinders him from obtaining gold pounds will be regarded as an enemy by him.

For example, Olin's Imperial Forestry Department, such as Lafayette Hou, who has a close relationship with the Forestry Department.

Bosenck Fishing Company provided Mr. Duke with far more benefits than Harold.According to Lafayette Hou's estimate in the letter, Bosenck Fishing Company provided the Duke with more than 20 gold pounds in income last year.

In a month, Harold and Bosenck Fishing Company have been removed successively, and the duke who likes gold pounds may go crazy.
