Chapter 52: noble

   In the afternoon of the next day, Jasso brought a team of carriages to the ship in the dock area. After a brief greeting, Henry took him to the cabin. After opening a wooden barrel with a crowbar, Jasso gently grabbed a handful of salt with his hands and twisted it with his hands. "There is no sand here! It's all fine salt!" He said, looking at Henry in surprise. Henry was a little proud, but there was still some sand in the crude salt produced at the beginning. Later, after he made some filters with fine vines, it was basically invisible after filtering them. He smiled and said: "Of course my friend, these are processed through special processes. I think this can start our brand as soon as possible and make sales easier." Jasso put down the salt in his hand and looked like an idiot. After watching Henry for a while, he said: "I am not opposed to selling these as fine products to nobles and merchants at higher prices, but as the output increases, the sales target will inevitably be turned into civilians. If you do not mix it with sand, it will not only let you I lose a lot of money, and it will also arouse the disgust of the upper class because they eat the same salt as the untouchables. Normally, the salt sold to ordinary people must be mixed with at least 10% or more of the sand."

The words of the leader of the business alliance made Henry stunned. He stared and said: "You mean my filtration process is done in vain?" Jasso waved his hand and said, "No, my dear friend, your process is very good. Greatly improve our reputation. I mean you can produce about 30 tons of high-quality goods per month, and the other ones are better than ordinary ones." Henry sighed and said: "Well, I will take the original Provide you with the coarse salt. As for the sand mixing, you should leave it to you." Jasso smiled and gave him a hug and said, "Thank you for understanding my friend. Know that we live in one In a place with civilization and order, sometimes it is good for everyone to follow some unspoken rules. I will divide these into two and sell one locally and bring them to Ascatraz. Soon the rich people in these two places will I will only eat our salt. In addition, you'd better prepare. After this morning’s discussion, the council decided to canonize you as Earl of Angome. I think they will send someone to inform you the day after tomorrow.” Hearing that his set goal has been achieved Later Henry was very happy. He shook Jasso’s hand and said, "Thank you again for your help. I think our relationship will be closer in the future." After the two chatted for a while, Jassau began to let people carry the barrels. Go to the carriage and transport to the warehouse.

  The working efficiency of the council was much higher than that of Jasso's estimation, and a team of Flame Fist mercenaries arrived on the ship after only one day. The leader of the team bowed slightly to Henry and said: "Hello, sir, after a vote by the parliament and the four grand princes, you have decided to canonize you as Earl of Angome. If you don’t have anything important now, I’d better go there. Parliament." Henry took out a small bag of gold coins and handed it to the captain, "Then what are we waiting for, let's set off now." After the captain took the bag, he found that there were at least a hundred gold coins in it. This is the sum of his salary for several years. "Please come with me, the parliament carriage is already waiting for you over there." After receiving a large sum of money, he immediately became more diligent. Sitting in the carriage, Henry watched the buildings on both sides of the road retreating rapidly, and he arrived at the gate of the parliament ten minutes later. Looking at the parliament that had been rebuilt after the dissolution of Bodean, he sighed with the tenacity of the merchants.

After arriving in the parliament hall, Henry found that many people were waiting for him. A tall man walked over and said, "Hello, Lord Angome, I am Grand Duke Anta Silvershield. Please come here this time. I came here mainly to confirm the relationship between your territory and the parliament. I will read your responsibilities and obligations aloud in a moment. If you have any objections, you can bring it up to us for discussion." Henry gently shook the grand duke's hand. After a hand, he said: "I am glad to meet your Grand Duke, then please start reading now." Anta Silver Shield turned and went to the center of the parliament, picked up a manuscript and began to read: Duke Anta Silver Shield here announces the decision of the parliament. The canonization of Henry Angome (with the surname of the territory) as the Earl takes effect immediately. The Earl of Angome and his territory must bear the following obligations: First, the right to call the port. Its territory shall not unreasonably prevent merchant ships in all areas of Baldor’s Gate from docking, and shall not charge a docking fee higher than the standard of Baldor’s Gate. The second is the right to free trade. The ships and goods of Baldur’s Gate shall not be seized without reason. Collect business taxes that are too higher than the regional average. In the end, the Baldur’s Gate area must be rescued when foreign invasion occurs. Does the Earl of Angome have any objections?"

   After listening to Henry, he discovered that these terms basically allow him to join the Baldur's Gate economic and trading system, and provide a certain degree of support when Baldur's Gate is attacked. There are no excessive demands and no interference in the control of the territory. He stood up and bowed to everyone and said, "I completely agree and abide by the above terms and have no objection." Anta Yindun walked over with the manuscript and said, "Since there is no problem, please sign the treaty. Name it, the earl. Also, please make a family crest of your own as soon as possible, and we will notify him to all the areas under it.” Henry signed the treaty and said to the Duke: “I will make it and deliver it by tonight. . If there is nothing wrong, I will retire first.” Anta Yindun smiled at him and said, “Tonight I hope to invite you to dinner at my mansion, I hope you can admire it. As for the badge, just bring it here. It's okay."

   Henry felt that there was something in the big duke's words, but he still agreed to it. After all, offending a powerful duke for no reason is not good for him. On the way back, he bought a lot of spirits and dishes and brought them back to the boat. As soon as he boarded the ship, he told everyone the news and announced the beginning of celebration. Hawke happily drank three cups in a row and blushed and said to Henry: "Your Excellency Earl, following you is the most correct decision I have made in my life." Henry took a sip of the juice and said, "Don't excite my friend. In the future, I will hand over all the ships in the territory to you for deployment. I will canonize you as a knight." The old captain laughed and said, "Praise you to my generous lord." At this time, Kegan also came over with his wine glass. Said to Henry: "Haha our little Henry has finally become a big man, and we must celebrate tonight." Henry smiled and said to the dwarf: "Night? I'm afraid it won't work. I'll have to design my own right away. Noble badge, and Grand Duke Anta Silver Shield invited me to dinner with him in the evening."

   "Oh, that's really disappointing. But you got an invitation from a grand prince when you just became a nobleman. This is great news and shows that he is optimistic about your potential." Hawke said to Henry. Henry also nodded and said, "Yes, but when he invited me, he seemed to have something to say to me alone, but there were too many people at the time and he didn't say it directly." The old captain patted his shoulder and said "The general nobleman invites to his mansion to participate in a dinner party just to form an alliance with you. You need to think about the stakes yourself. Well, let’s design your badge first. This is a sign of a nobleman." Henry took a mouthful. After drinking all the juice, he turned and returned to his room.

   Sitting at the table, he took out a piece of paper and began to draw a brown bear as Ares on it, and then drew Pique Louise on top of the bear. Then I circled the two of them in the shape of a shield, and finally filled the empty space with green. Picking up the drawing and looking at Henry, he was fairly satisfied with the badge he designed. He plans to create one by himself after returning to the territory and enchant it with his own hands. As for this drawing, it will be handed over to the Grand Duke for the record at night. The happy time always passed quickly. In the evening, he came to the Anta Silver Shield Mansion in the northwestern district of the city as scheduled. This is a large villa with independent walls and towers, and expensive marble forms the main body of this villa. After coming to the door and reporting his identity to the servant, the butler greeted him and took him to the living room. After sitting on the sofa for a while, Anta Yindun brought the two ladies and a little girl out with a smile, Henry stood up and the two hugged each other. Then he said openly: "Earl Angome welcomes you, now I will introduce you to my family members. This is my wife Brila."

   "Hello, beautiful Grand Duchess." Henry said with a kiss.

   The princess smiled and said, "Thank you very much for your compliment~www.ltnovel.com~ handsome Mr. Earls."

   "This beautiful girl is my sister Shikodi." The Grand Duke continued to introduce.

   Henry gave another kiss and said, "It's a pleasure to meet you, beautiful lady."

The girl stretched her body slightly nervously and said, "I am also very happy to meet you, Count Angome." Henry also noticed Shikoudi’s nervous thoughts. It seems that Anta Silver Shield does not often take her out to participate in various events. Kind of banquet.

   "In the end, this is my daughter Shi Ji, she is my angel." The Grand Duke solemnly introduced

   Henry thought of the rebellious girl in the game when he heard the name. It turned out that she was very good when she was a child. Maybe it was the strict aristocratic education that made her feel rebellious. He squatted down and said to Xiao Shi Ji: "You are so beautiful little angel. My name is Henry."

   The girl hid behind her parents without giving Henry a face, only showing half of her face and looking at him warily. Henry stood up helplessly and said to the Grand Duke: "It seems that your daughter doesn't like me very much, but I thought I was a heartthrob." Anta Silver Shield laughed and hugged her daughter up and said: "It seems When our handsome earl has a loss for women, my lovely little angel will grow up to be a steady lady. Okay, dear earl, let’s start dinner. The messy things in the council today will consume me A lot of physical strength is now too hungry to eat a cow."
