Farming Lord of Crossing

Chapter 82
The reception is still going on. In a small elegantly decorated, low-key and luxurious reception room, Viscount Modu and the chubby Earl Tesla who just showed up at the reception are sitting on the soft animal skin sofa. It is a bottle of fine wine that sparkles with red light.

If Wilson was in front of him at this time, he would definitely exclaim: "As expected of the Viscount, a small cup can raise the first-level junior fighter to the first-level resting potion, but the whole bottle of wine is drunk."

Earl Tesla squinted his eyes and took a big sip of pine wine, with a pleasant smile on his round face, and said in his special singing voice: "My lord Viscount understands me, this pine wine is so addictive! "

Viscount Mordo smiled and said, "I know you like this one, it's specially prepared for you!"

Earl Tesla laughed, took another sip of wine and said slowly, "Just give the title of baron and a large piece of land to a country boy who is nothing, this is not something a nobleman should do. what!"

Viscount Modu sneered: "What else can I do? Those two idiots, Lannister and Pochtilli, were beaten and disabled, and they were completely frightened by the orcs. Is it possible to give the west to the territory to the city? Idiots who know how to count money, drink, play with women, and fight for power, can they hold the west?

According to what my people learned after investigation, there are at least hundreds of thousands of orcs there now, and there is a tendency to gather into large tribes.

Or is it the group of greedy and ambitious guys who gave the branch? "

"The Modu family is separated! Hehe~" Earl Tesla played with his wine glass, and a teasing smile appeared on his fat face, "I have never heard of the troubled nobles engaged by collateral descendants. Your Modu family is Lorraine It is unique in the history of the Kingdom, and even the Fatan Empire."

"Well, when my ancestors left me a large piece of land, they also left us with a huge hidden danger." Viscount Mordo sighed, rubbed his brows with a headache and said helplessly: "It sounds good to say The other heirs leave enough resources for development, which can be regarded as leaving capital for the family to turn around in times of crisis.

Now, the best land and the most profitable business are basically taken away by them.The most important thing is that they don't know how to be grateful, they don't serve and enshrine the Lord's family well, and they are greedy and want to ask for more.Even ~~~”

This world is like this, except for the heir, other heirs are not eligible to inherit a penny of the family rights.This rule is common from the top to the nobles to the bottom to the common people.The eldest son inherited everything in the family, and the second son was driven out to work hard on his own when he became an adult.The other heirs of the noble family serve the family in the roles of retainers and assistants of the head of the family.

However, the Modu family was an accident.The relationship between the first viscount and his younger brother was very good, so good that when the construction of his territory was just started, he was granted the title of baron and the most fertile land on the territory, and set a rule that has caused headaches for all viscounts: Give yourself to your brothers and grant land and titles.Therefore, one-third of the nobles in Wellington, which has developed for thousands of years, belong to the Modu family.

"Okay, okay! I believe you can handle these things." Earl Tesla saw that Viscount Mordo continued to complain, and hurriedly changed the subject. He didn't come to listen to the old man complaining, "Then, Do you really believe that country boy can withstand the impact of hundreds of thousands of orcs?"

"Being able to survive the Anti-Japanese War to protect the villages and towns has created impeccable achievements, and made a small village grow nearly ten times. I think he should have a unique way to solve this matter." Viscount Modu After calming down, he explained calmly, "The most important thing is that Mo Lin admired him very much and recommended him to me."

"Molin! A 60-year-old land warrior (third-tier warrior) is rare even in Wangcheng, and his aptitude is indeed top-notch. He also has a strategic vision and is good at layout. He is a qualified heir." Speaking of Earl Tesla All of a sudden, he regained his energy, and his small eyes shone with curiosity and excitement: "So your heir has been decided?"

"It can't be decided!" Viscount Mordo seemed to trust Earl Tesla very much, and said without any taboo: "You also know that I will be two hundred years old soon. If I don't charge to the sky, I will probably stay on the earth forever in this life. gone."

"Sky warrior (fourth-tier warrior)!" Earl Tesla exclaimed enviously.

From the tone of their chat, it can be seen that the fourth-tier combat power of the Modu family as a viscount-level territory does not seem to be a big deal. The Modu family, which has stood for thousands of years, has once again revealed the tip of the iceberg.

Viscount Modu's eyes flashed with pride, and he said with a smile: "Tell me about the royal family. Does Your Majesty have anything to tell me?"

Earl Tesla patted his forehead, solemnly took out a small box from his pocket and put it on the table, pricked his index finger lightly and dripped a little blood into the small hole in the center of the box, then sang a few words in a low voice An incomprehensible incantation, a subtle wave of magic came out from his fingers and swept across the locket.

The small box opened automatically with a click, revealing a letter.

The protection and confidentiality registration of the letters are actually set to the highest level of blood mystery. Boxes of this level must have a specific person's blood and a spell to open, and the letter must be glued with blood again before it can be taken out, otherwise the letter will be destroyed on the first day. It turned into a liquid and self-destructed for a while.

Viscount Modu's expression became serious, he solemnly took the blood-stained letter, and read it carefully.

There were not many words on the letter, only less than 10 words, but the Viscount read it for [-] minutes, and then handed the letter to Earl Tesla without hesitation, and Earl Tesla took the letter and began to read it naturally. .

You must know that letters between nobles, especially the royal family, are not qualified and cannot be viewed by anyone except the recipient.

"Hey, it's really troublesome!" Earl Tesla rubbed his chubby face and scolded angrily, "Can't these religious lunatics in Yinhui Kingdom stop for a while? They just annexed the Huqiu Kingdom in the south. , Now I want to extend my claws to our Kingdom of Lorraine, and the empire doesn't care. I say, these guys should be completely driven out of our empire's territory, and go back to their glorious empire to serve their gods~~~ "

"Be careful!" Viscount Mordo, who has seen the horror of God's favor many times, hastily reminded Earl Tesla's almost blasphemous remarks: "That was just a war between the Silver Glory Kingdom and the Huqiu Kingdom, and now The contradiction between the Yinhui Kingdom and our Lorraine Kingdom.

Don't forget, after the twilight of the gods ten thousand years ago, all the gods signed a contract and were not allowed to intervene in the change of human countries, let alone start religious wars.

Therefore, this is not a battle of faith, and has nothing to do with religion, but a battle for interests and territory among nobles. "

Earl Tesla laughed: "Infiltrated for hundreds of years, nearly one-third of the lords have developed into loyal believers. What is the difference between such a method and religious wars?" I just waved my hand indifferently and said: "Okay, okay! According to the news I came, missionaries have appeared in the border towns bordering the Yinhui Kingdom, and even temples of the Moon Goddess have been established in several towns.

How are you doing here? "

"Almost!" Viscount Mordo said helplessly: "Those guys are the priests of the temple, as long as they are not particularly serious violations of law and discipline, the local lords cannot drive them away.

It can only be handed over to other priests of the temple in the territory to deal with. At that time, they could not directly conflict, they just propagated the teachings and used magic spells to compete for believers. "

"Look!" Earl Tesla said with a disgusted expression as if he had eaten a fly: "These pervasive clowns and despicable bastards should all be thrown into hell!"

"Is there any good way for the royal family?" Viscount Mordo asked dumbfounded.

"As you said, this group of guys can't fight or scold! The royal family has no special solution." Earl Tesla said helplessly: "However, His Majesty is afraid that the situation in the Huqiu Kingdom will reappear, and has gradually issued secret orders Lords at all levels are required to publicly declare their belief in a certain god, while secretly resisting the expansion of certain temples.

Moreover, His Majesty has reached an agreement with most of the temples, as long as the lords declare their belief in their gods, they are willing to raise the level of temples in the area by one level. "

"Hey!" Viscount Modu sighed and said, "That's the only way to go! The War of the Gods has just passed ten thousand years ago, and there are still alien races outside, what are 'they' trying to do?"

This time Count Tesla didn't speak, just drinking one cup after another, the living room fell into silence.
