"Sir Maurice, what are your plans? If you have enough money, I can allow you to redeem yourself. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info "Yun Xiaohan is just trying to capture the old man, Maurice is just a court baron, and he doesn't have a territory, where does he get the income."

The aristocracy in "Choice" is very particular about aristocratic honor, Duke William of Nassau can not recognize Morris's identity, but Morris can't help but recognize his nobility, if he does not pay the ransom and flees directly, he will be despised by all the nobles when he returns to the Arcane Council, and it is difficult to gain a foothold in the aristocratic group anymore, even if he goes back, he will only be looked down upon by others, and he will not get any more opportunities, which can be said to be ruined.

What's more, Duke William of Nassau originally had many children, a total of 12, and Maurice was not the eldest son, but only a second son, and was not taken seriously, while Duke William Nassau was busy with official business, and had little contact with his children, so his feelings were already very weak and he didn't know much.

This time, the Duke of William Nassau gave Morris a chance to carry out his first independent mission, but he lost a fortified ship, a large number of soldiers were killed, and even worse, Morris himself was captured.

In the eyes of the Duke of William Nassau, it is just to support a rebel party to rebel, even if the rebellion fails, it doesn't matter, it can cause a little chaos in the Duchy of Sardinia, anyway, he will not have any losses, but he did not expect that it will be such a shocking result. I have to admit that Morris was still very immature at this time.

Duke William of Nassau didn't care how Morris failed or how he was caught, as the first speaker of the Arcane Council, he didn't have that much time to learn more about a small conflict, and he had no way of knowing, the other ship went back early, and the soldiers of the Arcanian Council on the Qinhuang were all killed, and no one could report the process to him, he could only see the results.

The Duke of William Nassau refused to redeem Maurice, although the main reason was that he was unwilling to admit the small private actions of the Council of Offa, but his disappointment with Maurice was also a major reason, he was unwilling to pay a big price for this incompetent son in his eyes, and he was unwilling to favor this son.

In this way, Morris's situation is very embarrassing, go back, there is no way out, even his father doesn't recognize him, if he doesn't go back, he will be a prisoner, and he will even become a war slave of Yun Xiaohan because he can't get the ransom.

Thanks to Yun Xiaohan's reading of a lot of game backgrounds, reading a lot of books in the library, and communicating with Napoleon and Leah, otherwise he might not be able to figure out the twists and turns in this, and he wouldn't have beaten Morris's idea.

Seeing that Morris was silent, Yun Xiaohan spoke again: "You can't return to China now, and there will be no future when you return to China, and I can't raise you in vain, just serve me temporarily, others are not willing to give you a chance, I am willing to give, if you make achievements, I will make you a free man, and if you do well enough, you can even get a mining estate from me." ”

When Morris heard this, he raised his head suddenly, his eyes were no longer as unfocused as before, he stared at Yun Xiaohan tightly, and asked unhurriedly, "Your promise?" ”

"Yes, my promise! It depends on whether you believe it or not, your current situation, I don't need to lie to you, it is not good for me to lie to you, and what I need is your ability, not money or goods, I can't help you if you don't work. ”

Morris laughed miserably, "yes, what are you lying to me about my current situation?" I believe in you! I don't have an option right now! How long will it take for you to return my status as a freeman? ”

"One year, one year later, you will return your identity, let you stay."

A year is 4 months of reality, and the ratio of real time to game time is 1:3, and the time option is triggered when the conversation is here, and the system provides three times for Yun Xiaohan to choose, which are half a year, one year, and two years. Half a year is too short, I am afraid that if I don't have the heart, I will return Morris to freedom, two years is too long, although Morris has no other choice, but he will definitely be dissatisfied, and it will be difficult to retract, so Yun Xiaohan made a middle-of-the-road choice.

"Okay, one year for one year, I promised!" Morris agreed to serve Yun Xiaohan, but did not mention the matter of obtaining the fief from Yun Xiaohan at all, which shows that he still cherishes his homeland and does not consider becoming a vassal of Yun Xiaohan.

Yun Xiaohan didn't have too many illusions, Morris grew up in the Alpha Council, and his father was the first speaker of the Alpha Parliament, so it was impossible for him to change sides casually.

And Yun Xiaohan himself is just a viscount, or a little viscount with only two fiefdoms, Morris has to be brainless to look at him, but fortunately he is a field viscount, not a field baron, otherwise he can't even say anything to solicit, if he does, Morris will only feel that Yun Xiaohan is humiliating him.

After Morris agreed, Yun Xiaohan will be able to see his five potential values, 4 and a half stars for personal combat potential, 8 and a half stars for army command, 6 and a half stars for naval command, 8 and a half stars for management leadership, and 4 stars for political and diplomatic potential. Morris's personal combat potential is obviously a star drop, and it is estimated that it has dropped by one star or one and a half stars.

Because Morris has not become a follower or vassal of Yun Xiaohan, the talent cannot be seen, but not seeing the talent does not mean that the talent is ineffective, but it is a pity that Morris has not officially attached to Yun Xiaohan, and he cannot be set as an archon, even if he has talent, it can only work in the fief where he serves, and not on the entire territory.

Yun Xiaohan thought about it, and still set Morris as the internal affairs chief of Ajaccio Village, and served as the deputy head of Ajaccio Village, and demoted the previous internal affairs director "Sturalo" to the internal affairs adjutant, and the original internal affairs adjutant "Morse" was transferred to Bastia City to continue to serve as the internal affairs adjutant.

As a result of this change, the population growth rate of the village of Ajaccio increased from 4% to 9%, and the population growth rate of the city of Bastia increased from 3% to 3.2%.

Compared with the population growth rate of many interior adjutants in Bastia City, which only increased by 0.2%, the increase of 4% to 9% in Ajaccio Village is really terrifying, it can be seen that the star rating of the special NPC of the official type is more affected by the higher it goes, and it is a kind of leapfrog promotion, 7 and a half stars is to enter the hero template, compared with 7 stars, it is completely two worlds, and each half star from 7 stars up can even be equivalent to the effect of the previous several stars.
