Chapter 124

While monitoring measures are in place, the inspection system for entering and leaving Sachs City has also been improved.

All people entering and exiting Saskatchewan for the first time must go through a background check by the Ministry of Civil Affairs.After review, the person will be given a portrait and a pass will be issued in accordance with the manor's protection system.

Of course, this pass is first-class than the household registration certificate held by the villagers, and can only enter and exit certain specific places in Sacheng, the dock and the manor.

These measures, although relatively cumbersome.But if you don't do it now, it will become more troublesome later.

Lomo doesn't want to introduce pesky lice and fleas into his territory.

Two days later, when Lomo was comprehending the new shadow skills, Yale came to the Soul Split Fortress to report Byron's investigation results to Lomo:

"Sir, everything has been found out. This Byron is really Brad's enemy, and he is the kind who will never stop fighting."

"Tell me in detail." Luo Mo said in a deep voice.He has now cultivated Byron as a talent reserve, and he must understand his background in detail.

Yale took a deep breath and said in a deep voice: "The Walkerhua family is a foreign family and a family that has been doing business for generations. Because the land in the Volo Valley can grow certain medicinal materials, they chose to take root in the Volo Valley. However, Since their family's baronetcy was purchased and could not be hereditary, they did not have a deep foundation in the river valley. For this reason, Byron's father spent a lot of money to cultivate relationships, and finally formed a marriage with the Braid family and married Buron. Lord Ryder’s cousin.”

Luo Mo frowned slightly and said: "Listening to what you said, the relationship between the two families seems not to be symmetrical. The Brad family is not short of money, and they have many marriage partners. Why would they marry their daughter to such a small family? "

"Your Excellency is wise." Yale explained: "The specific reason cannot be determined. It is probably because during the process of doing business, Byron's parents fell in love with each other and insisted on being together. It is because of this that Blake The De family is very dissatisfied with this marriage. It often humiliates the Wokhua family."

"A year ago, when Earl Brad contacted Byron's father and wanted him to join the trade with the evil orcs, Byron's father rejected him on the spot. While Earl Brad was angry, he became even more dissatisfied with the Walkera family. And he was even more dissatisfied that his cousin chose such a small family and brought shame to the Brad family. So, he punished his cousin in his own way, which was to rape his cousin. "

Luo Mo shook his head in disgust and said: "This count is really a pervert. I regret that I was too quick when I killed him."

"Yeah, this is not something that one fucking person can do. No wonder he can get together with the evil orcs." Yale complained, and continued: "After Byron's father found out, he first wanted to reason , and was later stopped by his wife. Unexpectedly, Earl Bled went further and raped his cousin again. At this time, Baron Walker could not bear it any longer. He first went to the city hall to sue, and then went to the Bled family to complain. , and finally took action directly against the count."

"It's a pity that he is no match for Earl Brad. After a fight, Wokhua Manor was bloodbathed. Not only the people of Wokhua, but also the servants of the manor, the clerks in the shops, and their close business partners were all killed by Brad. The count killed them all. Only Byron was left, and it was at the expense of his mother's dignity."

Yale swallowed his saliva and said again: "After that, Byron went to Bled Manor alone three times and challenged Earl Bled to a duel. Each time, he was abused and returned. In the last time, Byron was imprisoned. Earl Ryder destroyed the unformed magic seeds and abolished all the magic abilities in his body. This is the entire grudge between him and Earl Ryder."

After hearing this, Luo Mo asked in a deep voice: "Where did you get this information?"

Yale replied: "I grabbed a few tongues directly from Blyde Manor and asked. Because Baron Walker once went to the city hall to report it, and I also specially reviewed the files to confirm this statement."

"Well, there are witnesses and physical evidence. The process is also very reasonable. It seems that it should be true." Luo Mo made his own judgment.

Yale added: "The rape and murder of my cousin is quite unreasonable. No one can do it. But when I think that Earl Brad did it, it feels a lot more reasonable."

"So, has he applied to the Ministry of Civil Affairs to join the manor?" Lomo asked.

Yale nodded and said: "I have applied. Because this person is special, the Ministry of Civil Affairs is waiting for your response."

Luo Mo ordered: "Enter the manor according to the normal procedures, sign a villager's contract with him, then issue him a household registration certificate, and assign him to a trading company of the civil affairs department. First, let him be a store manager. First, he will be familiar with our business. system, and the second is to observe his ability and character by the way to see if he is qualified for our work. After the assessment for a period of time, we will make arrangements."

"Yes, sir." Yale bowed and suddenly remembered something and asked: "Sir, Elliot and Joshua want to come to Sa City to hold a wedding. Then they invite us people from the manor to attend. Last time they It was held in Woluo City, and very few people from our manor went there, so they simply came to Sa City to hold it again. I wonder if your Excellency will agree?"

"Of course." Romo nodded and said, "Speaking of which, Elliot has made a lot of contributions to our manor. Coming to Sa City to host it is a lively event, and you can just relax for a while."

"Yes, sir. I will send someone to inform them right away." Yale bowed again and walked outside.

Looking at Yale's leaving figure, Luomo fell into thought.Elliot is actually also a good business talent, but unfortunately he also works in the city hall and only works part-time at Saldin House.

The person who is truly suitable is Byron Walker.

'It took so much time and effort from MI to get you into the manor.Byron, please don't let me down. ' Luo Mo thought silently in his heart.

Late at night, Volo City.

"How about next time, you should drink some rejuvenation potion. That thing is really useful." Joshua suggested.

Elliot said nothing.In fact, he had secretly taken a rejuvenation potion today, but his recent state was indeed not good.

He changed the topic and said: "Mainly, I am too busy these days. There is an endless stream of merchants coming to Saldin House to place orders. We have already taken stock of two or three shops in the surrounding area, but we still can't handle them. You Guess what the profit was this month?"

"How much?" Joshua asked curiously.

"More than two thousand, four hundred gold coins. It's not sales, but gross profit." Elliot said.

Joshua was immediately startled, thinking that at this time last year, the turnover was less than 500 gold coins.Now, the gross profit alone has reached more than 2000 gold coins.

Just listen to Eliot continue: "My monthly salary now is more than what I earned in several years of working in the city hall. Moreover, the people I receive are all barons, viscounts and other nobles. Their identity and status are even different from before. Same thing."

When Joshua heard this, he felt that his husband was really awesome.

She couldn't help but get into Elliot's arms and kept kissing his neck and cheeks.

Elliot hugged Joshua and said after careful consideration: "How about I quit my job in the city hall and concentrate on serving Lord Saldin. Anyway, my energy is basically spent during this period. It was placed on the Saldin House, and if my boss hadn’t been Job, I would have been fired by the city hall.”

Joshua hesitated and said softly: "I feel that Lord Saldin's constant killing of nobles is a bit too much. I'm worried that he will be liquidated by the kingdom at any time."

"I have this concern." Elliot nodded and said: "However, I always feel that Lord Saldin has a bright future and will one day become the most powerful person in the Volo Valley. Look at his growth in the past few years. , can simply be described as a miracle.”

"Even if he is outstanding, wouldn't it be good to keep the current situation?" Joshua said: "You have money and a way out. Why do you have to join him?" "You don't understand. ." Elliot explained: "Now the new city of Saldin Manor - Sa City has begun operations. The scale of trade there is by no means comparable to our small shop in Volo City. You know, Sa City There are not many business talents under Lord Sardin. If I completely surrender to Lord Sardin now, he may arrange an important position for me in the new city. But if I am still greedy for the position in the city hall. Wait until the focus of trade completely changes. When I get to Sacheng, I may soon be marginalized. By then, I’m afraid there won’t be such a good thing.”

Joshua was a little curious and asked: "What is the monthly gross profit of the new city you are talking about?"

Elliot shook his head and said softly: "I can't say for sure. But according to my understanding, it is now at least four times the size of Saldin House."

When Joshua heard this, he suddenly took a breath.

Although it is only gross profit, labor and other costs are not included.But this number was enough to shock Joshua.

In other words, although the current Lord Saldin is still a captain of the reserve battalion.But his monthly income is more than the entire military expenditure given to the Knights of the Volo Valley by the kingdom.

In other words, as long as he wants, he can raise an army that is enough to compete with an entire knights in the Volo Valley?

Thinking of this, Joshua suddenly understood what Elliot would choose.

She immediately said to Elliot: "Since you have this idea, then I'll listen to you. But, if you want to go to Sa City, what should I do? We can't separate the two places, right?"

Elliot pondered and said, "How about you also resign from your public position and go to Sacheng with me?"

Joshua hesitated for a moment, but when she thought of being separated from her husband, she was really reluctant to bear it.

While the two were discussing, they suddenly heard a faint howl of a wolf in the distance.

Hearing this wolf howl, Elliot's expression suddenly changed.

"What's wrong?" Joshua asked.

Elliot shook his head slightly.During this time, he often followed caravans in and out of the Volo Valley, and he once heard this kind of wolf howling in a city in the north.

Someone told him that the wolf howl was made by the wolf rider under the scout of the evil orc army.

Could it be that those evil orc scouts are haunting the Volo Valley?
Thinking that Lord Saldin, Job and others had expressed their determination to fight against the evil orcs more than once, Elliot had already regarded the evil orcs as his enemy.

Now that there is an enemy situation, Elliot always has to get up and observe to feel relieved.So he put on his clothes and said to Joshua: "I have to go out for a while. Just stay at home and wait for me to come back."

"Then please be safe." Seeing Elliot's serious expression, Joshua ordered softly.

Elliot nodded, took out two daggers from the drawer, put them in his arms, and walked out.

At this time, not far from Elliot's house, there was Mayor Malcolm's house.

Malcolm was sitting in his study, holding a quill and writing a letter carefully.

The letter was addressed to the cabinet minister in charge of personnel.

He has been thinking about it these days, planning to leave the Volo Valley.

A lot of gold coins were spent, and things made some substantial progress.

In two months at most, he can leave this poor place and go to the south to develop.

Ever since Earl Brad was killed, he has been thinking like this.However, if you want to find an official position that suits you, you can't do it without gold coins.

Fortunately, I had made enough money from the evil orcs before, so this level of management was not a problem at all.The remaining money is enough for him to retire in the south.

After the letter was written, Malcolm checked it twice and breathed a sigh of relief.Then while sealing the letter, he softly hummed a southern ditty.

His thoughts now have already drifted to those beautiful girls with big braids in the south.

After sealing the envelope, Malcolm was just about to put the letter in the cabinet and lock it up when he suddenly heard a voice behind him:
"Mayor Malkan, your singing voice is very charming."

Mayor Malkan suddenly heard this voice, and his scalp immediately became numb.He quickly took two steps away diagonally, and as soon as he turned his head, a look of extreme horror suddenly appeared on his face.

I saw an evil orc with red skin and brown leather armor standing across the table.

Next to him, stood a human mage wearing a brown robe and a curvy figure.

The evil orc is extremely tall, two heads taller than the human mage next to him.Two doors protruded outward, staring coldly at Mayor Malkane with green bean-like eyes.

Seeing the murderous look in his eyes, Mayor Malcolm took a step back involuntarily, with cold sweat breaking out on his forehead.

The human mage smiled and asked softly: "Mayor Malkan, can you explain why the food for my army in autumn and winter has not been delivered yet?"

Mayor Malcolm wiped the sweat from his forehead and said calmly: "Mr. Maggie, Earl Brad is dead, and our trade with you has been cancelled."

The human mage known as Mr. Maggie smiled slightly and said: "Earl Brad is dead, isn't there you? Why, didn't we cooperate very happily before? The mayor won't want to quit, right? "

"Me, me." Mayor Malkan was so frightened that he couldn't even speak clearly, and cold sweat started to flow from his forehead again.
