Heroes of Silver Moon

Chapter 432: : 3 welcome banquets (3)

"Hey, what should I say when I go back?" Simon sighed in the carriage as the convoy drove on the road.

The territory of Guy's father, Earl Farid, is close to the Alpine Territory, and it can be reached by carriage in a day.

After finally coping with the endless questions from his uncle, aunt, grandfather, and cousin, Simon will face a new problem, that is, how to explain to his father that he left the Hawke family after returning home.

Although Simon can have the current achievements, the Hawke family is basically useless.

But if there was no father, Valery, who exchanged part of the territory for a paper of admission, and if he hadn't started a war with the Hood family when he was under house arrest, then Simon would not even have the beginning, let alone the current achievement. .

But it's good now, his father Valery has invested so much in him, and he left the Hawke family in a blink of an eye. It's good that his father doesn't get **** off.

"Master Simon, we're back in the mountains!" Xi Weier's excited voice came from outside the carriage.

Simon felt a little complicated. He leaned on the car window with his right hand, a little timidly close to home, and returned here after four years. He didn't know whether this would be his starting point or end point.

After a short sigh and emotion, Simon made up his mind and opened the car window with a gritted teeth.

The breeze is blowing slowly, surrounded by endless yellow grass and wasteland, and there are a few small hillsides and a few bleak woods in the distance, still as desolate as ever, or as empty as ever.

This is the high mountain collar that the Hawke family relies on for survival.

This is the Hawke family's greatest wealth.

In this land, there are the painstaking efforts of the Hawke family from generation to generation.

In this land, the Hawke family has paid too much blood and sweat.

In this land, the Hawke family is the well-deserved rulers!

Looking at the empty and desolate land around them, Harris, Deborah and others were a little confused.

In such a remote place, the Hawke family has been operating for thousands of years and it is so desolate. Can the few of them follow Simon to open up the territory, can they really achieve something?

After driving for more than half a day, after passing a town located in the valley, on a hillside, Simon and the others saw a rough stone castle. It was where Simon lived for twelve years, and then he was separated for another four years. Alpine Fort.

Seeing a convoy approaching, the guards of the Alpine Fort immediately became vigilant. This is a habit developed from fighting barbarians all the year round.

But after seeing Xi Weier in the convoy, the guard immediately relaxed his vigilance and raised the spear in his hand again.

Just when the guards were wondering why the Cavaliers of Silver were in this convoy, some of the more clever guards seemed to have thought of something, and their faces suddenly showed joy.

"Quick, hurry up and report to Lord Earl, Master Simon is back!"

The voices of the guards and servants were transmitted in the Alpine Fort, and the atmosphere of the entire Alpine Fort became active. Valery, who was sitting in the study dealing with government affairs, soon learned the news.

Putting down the quill in his hand, and glancing at the financial deficit on the parchment, Valéry got up and looked at the desolate mountain collar from the study window, and murmured, "Have you finally returned?"

In his eyes, he seemed to see the hope of the whole world.

The Alpine Territory was not rich in the first place. Since the rainy season suddenly became heavy four years ago, the crops in the Alpine Territory and the surrounding territories have been in a state of failure every year, and the number of barbarians going out to plunder has also increased significantly. The financial maintenance of the entire Alpine Territory is quite barely .

In addition to the battle with the Hood family three years ago, although they received 50,000 gold coins in compensation afterwards, the losses of the Hawke family were still far greater than their gains.

Nowadays, in the treasury of the Hawke family, there is only a mere reserve of less than five thousand gold coins, which is really too little for an old territory that has been passed down for thousands of years.

All it takes is another war or natural disaster, and the Hawke family will immediately collapse financially. They will either choose to sell their territories, or choose to borrow from other nobles or merchants.

And no matter what it is, this is not what Valery hoped for!

Let Xi Weier settle Harris, Deborah, Cirillo and others, Simon looked at the familiar Alpine Fort, and came to the banquet hall with some strangeness.

It was still a family dinner, but this time there were only four people participating, Simon's father Valery, mother Hina, younger brother Christine, and Simon himself.

Entering the rough banquet hall, Simon immediately saw his mother Xina who was waiting anxiously, his father Valery who was calmly sitting on the main seat, and his younger brother Christine who was extremely calm.

"Oh, my child, you are finally back!" Seeing Simon's figure, Hina happily ran to Simon and hugged him.

Simon was only twelve years old when he left Alpine Fort, and went to school in the capital with no one to rely on, but she loved her as a mother to death. During these four years, she missed Simon all the time.

"Mother!" Simon's eyes were a little sour, but he held back his tears very strongly.

Although the soul in his body is mature, since he grew up in Gaoshan Castle, he has been thinking about it all the time for the past four years.

If it wasn't because of longing, if it wasn't for wanting to come back here, how could he have rejected Irina's intentions again and again, until finally Irina's desperate impulse made him retreat, and he gave up all his love for Her Royal Highness. poured out.

After greeting his mother, Simon walked to the banquet table without haste. Valery did not get up, but sat on the main seat and looked at Simon and said, "I'm back~www.readwn.com~ Simon nodded wryly: "Well, I'm back! "

Sitting in the seat he was familiar with, Simon smiled and greeted his younger brother Christine: "Hey, I'm back!"

There was also a smile on Christine's cold face, and he nodded to his brother who had been separated for four years.

The whole family arrived, and then the family banquet officially began. Although the finances of the Alpine Territory are very tight now, Valery still held the welcome banquet very well, and he would not be stingy on his eldest son's welcome banquet.

According to the practice of aristocratic self-cultivation, at the beginning of the banquet, no business was discussed, and the family chatted happily. After eating and drinking, Valéry put down the knife and fork in his hand, and wiped the oil stains on his lips with a clean cloth.

The attendant stood aside respectfully holding the copper water basin. After Valery put the clean cloth in the water basin, he quickly bowed out of the banquet hall with the water basin in his hand.

After putting down the cleaning cloth in his hand, Valery looked at Simon, and Simon's heart sank, knowing that he would not be able to pass this test.

"The situation in the Alpine Territory is very bad now, what are your plans next?" Valery said straight to the point.

Simon felt a little nervous, and then launched a money offensive, taking out gifts from the space ring.

"Father, this is a gift I prepared for you, a master-level enchanted full-body plate armor, a sword and shield, a lance, a binoculars for looking into the distance, and a pen for more convenient writing.

Mother, here is the makeup box, necklace and mirror I bought for you. And Christine, I have prepared a big gift for you, a bachelor's admission letter from Silvermoon Comprehensive College! "

Looking at the gifts Simon prepared for them, Valery was a little surprised and moved, these things happened to be what they wanted!
