French knight lord: I have a skill panel

Chapter 15 Baron Hansen's Conspiracy

Looking at Baron Hansen's sloppy expression, Luomo was very puzzled.

Didn't he really think that those ten serfs on war horses could overturn their manor?
Judging from their physical condition, they may have barely reached the standard of a first-order knight, but their manor has also increased a lot of manpower. Couldn't the Lord Baron see it?
Or is his inherent thinking at work, and he still sees himself as the cowardly boy who could only hide behind his father and brother?

Luomo was going to test it first, so he showed a embarrassed expression on his face and said: "Baron Hansen, to tell you the truth, we don't have any surplus food in the manor. The North Wind Timberwolves have been harassing us all day long, and our farmers and sheep are all harassed. They ate several of them."

"fart!"

Baron Hansen waved his hand and said coldly: "For some reason, the Timberwolves of the North Wind have almost disappeared these days. How could they come and harass them all day long? The serfs in your manor reclaimed several fields in the Voro River a few months ago. Ten mu of land, do you think I’m blind? Can’t you see?”

When Luo Mo heard this sentence, he suddenly understood in his heart.This guy didn't notice his recent actions, he just noticed the fields he had previously reclaimed on the banks of the Voro River.

But this can not blame him.The Battle of Wolf Extermination was at the junction of Sardin Manor and the dense forest. It was separated from Hansen Manor by a large forest. It was really difficult to notice without special investigation.However, the fields on the banks of the Volo River were very close to the Hansen Manor, and Baron Hansen would pass by occasionally when he went to the city to buy a slave girl.

It's just that he was greedy for his own harvest, and he dared to rush into his manor without even investigating, which is simply stupid.

It's normal to say that Luo Mo's brother just died less than a year ago.No one would have expected that his strength would improve so much during this period of time.

As a hanging comparison, it is indeed a bit unreasonable.

What made Luo Mo suspicious was that he had just received the blackmail letter from the Huffy Brotherhood, and this guy couldn't wait to come to the door.It feels as if this guy has been coveting his own food for a long time.

Luo Mo was puzzled in his heart, but remained calm on the surface.Spreading his hands together, with a helpless expression, he complained: "I really can't live through this day. First the bandits, and then you. If we want so much food, we can't afford it even if we sell our manor. .”

Baron Hansen was waiting for this sentence, and immediately said: "Yes. Little Lomo, you are still young, so you don't know how hard it is to support the manor. What I said is fine, then the Hophy Brotherhood But they are all a group of vicious people who kill people without blinking an eye. Not only will they want your food, but they will also rob you of your things and women."

Luo Mo made a sad face, and said sadly: "Baron Hansen, why don't you show me the way."

Baron Hansen took a gulp of malt wine and said in a heart-to-heart tone: "Little Luomo, for the sake of our neighbors for many years. I can help you with this."

"How to help?"

"I'll just buy your manor, and you can take the money and buy a house in the city to enjoy yourself. I'll help you bear the risk of the Huffy Brotherhood!" Baron Hansen said, patting his chest.

Hearing this, Luo Mo finally understood the purpose of Baron Hansen.

He actually wanted to annex his manor!And want to annex legally!

This bastard bastard has a big appetite.

He now suspects that the so-called blackmail letter was actually forged by Baron Hansen in order to cause him to panic.

After all, there were only a few lines of words on that letter, without any token, anyone could forge it.

Otherwise, Baron Hansen could not have bought his manor knowing that there would be robbers coming to rob him.It's not that he thinks he hasn't been robbed enough.

Since there is no participation of the Huffi Brotherhood, this matter will be much easier to handle.

Luo Mo's originally chaotic heart immediately settled down.He has a certain understanding of Baron Hansen's strength.Maybe a little stronger than his brother, the peak of the second-order knight.

"How is it? Little Luomo. If it were someone else, I would definitely not be so helpful. I am doing this for the sake of my neighbors, and I am completely thinking of you." Baron Hansen continued.

Luo Mo thought for a while and said, "So, how much do you plan to pay?"

Baron Hansen stretched out five fingers and said, "Fifty gold coins. Are you sincere enough?"

Luo Mo smiled coldly, fifty gold coins were only enough for the price of serfs in the manor.This Hansen wanted to get a manor for nothing.

"You can choose fifteen serfs at will as your servants in the city." Baron Hansen conceded, "With this money, you can enjoy yourself in the city. Wouldn't it be better than staying in this poor country?"

Seeing that Luo Mo still didn't speak, Baron Hansen put away his smile, stared at his eyes, put on a coercive expression again, and said coldly: "Why, you don't want to?"

Lomo shook his head and said: "I'm sorry, Baron Hansen, I think I have to think about it first. But thank you for your kindness. In return for your kindness, I can lend you 8 tons of wheat first."

Hansen frowned slightly when he heard this.Since he is willing to borrow, it means that this kid has given in.In the future, he will use his methods slowly, not afraid that he will not follow his orders.

"However, you have to write an IOU." Luomo emphasized.

"That's natural." Hansen smiled slightly.I thought to myself that this kid is too young after all, so there is a fart for the excuse.My relationship with the City Hall is much better than yours, and you will never beat me in a lawsuit.

At that moment, Hansen picked up the pen and ink that Luo Mo handed over, swiped the pen, and wrote an IOU.

The paper Lomo prepared for him was huge, with a lot of blank space on it, but Hansen didn't care at all.In his view, this IOU is just a piece of waste paper.

After finishing writing, Luo Mo put away the IOU and led him to the granary to carry the wheat.

This time, the whole manor was alarmed.

The militiamen and farmers watched Baron Hansen bring a large amount of grain into the car, and brought out many other things by the way.

They were extremely angry for a moment, and the eyes of those knight attendants were even more tearful.

Baron Hansen seemed to enjoy the angry and helpless expressions of the farmers, riding on the horse, showing off his might.

George pulled up Jos, the knight attendant, and pestered Lomo, wanting him to give orders to stop Baron Hansen.

George's face was flushed and he looked extremely angry. He said, "Master, you have raised us for so long, and now we don't work hard. When will we have to wait? We will fight with Hansen Manor!"

"How do you want to fight?" Luo Mo asked in a deep voice.

"Fight with your life! Either we will die, or they will die!" Jos, the knight attendant, clenched his fists, and the veins on his forehead bulged.He trained day and night, already looking eager to try.

Barron also echoed from the side: "Yes, master, we can't let them bully like this. When the old master is around, they would never dare to do this!"

Lomo stared into the eyes of several people, and said softly: "I ask you, because we killed someone because he came to borrow food, wouldn't the city hall not intervene? What is the crime of killing a baron in the kingdom's law? Do we bear the responsibility? Can you afford it?"

"This..." Barron suddenly fell silent.

In the Kingdom of Clay, killing a baron is indeed a serious crime, not to mention that Luo Mo is a man without a baron, and he might be taken to kill him.

"Then you can't just lend them food like this. They won't pay it back!" George was still aggrieved.

Luo Mo waved his hand and said in a deep voice: "You don't have to worry about this matter, I have my own measure."

Several people heard the master's words, although they were angry in their hearts, they had to obey Luo Mo's order.

So under the watchful eyes of the farmers, Baron Hansen directed his men to load the grain into the truck bit by bit, and then walked away.

The serfs in Hansen Manor also came to help, looking very happy, as if today was a grand festival.

Until night, the atmosphere in Sardin Manor was still very oppressive.Those farmers were almost pissed off, they didn't want to fall asleep, so they had to get together to play cards and drink, and kept cursing Baron Hansen.

Some people knelt on the ground and prayed devoutly to the god of the wilderness, hoping that Baron Hansen would die suddenly and the whole family would die soon.

In the castle, Luomo did not fall asleep either.

He was dressed in light black leather armor, with a black linen hood and mask, revealing only his eyes.

He successively hid the bloodfang dagger, quicklime and spare dagger on his body.Then wrapped the Qingshuang Great Sword in black cloth and carried it behind his back.

After doing all this, Luo Mo slowly climbed down from the south of the castle, and under the cover of night, he quietly went in the direction of Hansen Manor.
