"Nilou, bring me my collar flowers."

In the small building, the girl brought a lace collar flower to Ethan's room as fast as she could, and stood on tiptoe to pin it for him. Looking at Ethan, the girl said, "Dad, you seem to be in a good mood today." ”

"Because there's a life-changing opportunity right around the corner, Nilou. If we had a qiē shun lì, we would soon be able to leave this dilapidated house. Ethan said as he stepped on the floor.

He was particularly energetic and energetic today. If it weren't for the almost paranoid look in his eyes, the man in front of him would have almost overlapped perfectly, and Nilou wondered, who was he going to see?

Ethan wore a neat suit and a collar flower, looking like a gentleman about to go to a banquet. He only dresses like this when he goes to meet important people. He patted his daughter on the shoulder and strode out of the room.

At the Prancing Horse Inn, Edward was looking at his Imperial Constitution. He looked so earnestly that nothing seemed to disturb him, and he didn't know anyone was visiting until there was a third knock on the door.

"Who?" Edward walked towards the door.

"It's me, Ethan."

Edward opened the door and said cheerfully, "It's a pleasure to see you again, Mr. Ethan." ”

He invited Ethan in, looked around the hallway, and then closed the door. Edward smiled, "It seems that Mr. Ethan has already made a decision. ”

"Yes, I decided to take a gamble. Even though I'm not a gambler, I don't think if I don't take advantage of this opportunity, I don't know if I will have a chance next time. Ethan nodded.

Edward agreed: "Opportunities are always fleeting, and the brave will hold on to them, while the cowardly will settle for the status quo." ”

"So, what are you going to do? I have to remind you that my uncle is a level 15 knight. Ethan said.

"Even if it's a knight, it's just an old knight." Edward smiled and said, "We have enough strength, and as long as there is the right time, we can completely make Baron York disappear." It's just that Sur City doesn't want to be an ideal place to do it, no matter how you look at it. ”

"That's not a problem. The army of Storm City is heading to the Asr Mountains, and I'd say Uncle Dong will go with them. With his character, he would not be relieved that Sir Maud's men would be unregulated in his own territory. ”

"If this is the case, there is no more perfect ending than the death of the Baron in battle, and the succession of Mr. Ethan to his title and power."

Ethan nodded and said, "So, what are your conditions?" You won't help me unconditionally, will you? ”

"That's nature, after all, we're businessmen." Edward said lightly: "We have come from far away, and we do not yet have any status or identity in this strange continent. The most urgent thing for us now is a legitimate identity. ”

Ethan paced around the room twice and said, "No problem, wait for me to take the position of the lord of the city." can make you residents of Sur City. ”

"It's not enough, sir. My young master needs at least one chamber of commerce chairmanship. ”

"Chairman of the Chamber of Commerce." Ethan frowned and said, "The chairman of the Chamber of Commerce in Sur City has always been Sean......"

"He'd been sitting in that position for a long time, and it was time to move around. What's more, we will bring a new industrial revolution to the city. If you make such a contribution, I don't think anyone will criticize you, right? ”

Ethan gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, I promise you." If you can really make a difference in Sur City, the position of chairman of the Chamber of Commerce is yours. ”

"So on the last point, we still need some guarantees."

"Guarantees?"

"This is a simple contract that I have drawn up, Mr. Ethan, please take a look." Edward pulled a few pages of the contract out of the wedge and handed it to Ethan.

Ethan looked at him, "Are you sure I'll come?" ”

"Not really, it's just a little preparation in advance."

Ethan looked through the contract in disbelief, and on the last clause, his breath became short: "I need to marry my daughter to your young master, or the person he appoints, for this contract to take effect?" ”

"We always need a little security, and marriage ensures that our cooperation goes smoothly. After all, with Mr. Ethan's current conditions, that's all I can think of. Edward said casually.

Ethan smiled wryly: "What if I refuse? ”

"That will only show that you are insincere, and of course we will not cooperate with you."

Ethan snorted, "It seems that I don't have much of a choice. ”

"That's true, but Mr. Ethan, don't worry. You will never regret your choice today. ”

Ethan clenched his fists, a look of struggle flashing in his eyes. York's contempt and indifference kept flashing through his head. He gritted his teeth and stretched out his hand, "Here comes the pen!" ”

Edward handed over a pen and watched Ethan quickly write his name on the contract, then sat down as if he had exhausted all his strength. Edward put away the contract, carefully folded it and put it in his pocket, then reached out and said, "Good luck working together, Mr. Ethan." Oh no, the future Lord Baron. ”

Ethan smiled, reaching out and holding Edward together.

Not far from the Asa Mountain camp, Alan sat on a boulder, watching Bai Bai enjoy a meal under the grass. The young king snake he brought from Earth was perfectly adapted to the planet's environment, although the beasts here were different from those on Earth. However, for Bai, its fledgling spiritual control ability also had an extraordinary effect.

The little beast that Bai devoured was affected by its spiritual power, and automatically came out of an inconspicuous nest on the side of the grassy slope, and came to the king snake in a daze, and Bai opened his mouth to swallow it, and then gradually digested it. The beasts of this planet are born with the ability to absorb the natural source power of the universe, and although the amount of absorption is not large, it is already a rare meal for Shiro.

As the flesh and blood melted, the source power in the little beast's body was absorbed by Bai little by little, making the young snake so comfortable that it even wanted to sleep beautifully.

"Alan."

Alan turned around, and Lucy was waving at him: "Edward is back, he has something to look for you." ”

"Got it."

Back at the camp, he met Edward in his tent. The young man smiled, "We're going to war. ”

"What about the opponent?" Alan didn't seem surprised.

"Sir York and the army of Storm City."

"It seems that there are a lot of enemies."

Edward spread his hands and said, "No way, this is the condition I promised others." But in fact, our real target is only Sir York. ”

Alan said, "It seems that you have achieved something from this trip to Sur City. ”

"The harvest is not small." Edward told him about working with Ethan.

Hearing that Edward's condition was to include marriage, Alan frowned. Edward said, "I know you don't want to take it, so I added another one. It is up to you to designate a person to marry Ethan's daughter, whoever it is. ”

"Well, that's you." Eren smiled mischievously.

"Me?" His decision surprised Edward himself, and the young man put away his smile and said, "Do you believe me?" ”

His question was obvious, after all, Edward had only recently joined. Once he marries Ethan's daughter, according to Edward's plan, he may be in control of Sur City. If he were to deal with Allen in turn, Allen would be in a rather disadvantageous position.

Alan also said seriously: "We both lack trust in each other, so it is also a good choice to start cultivating from now on." So believe it or not, Edward, you just have to ask yourself. Are you willing to be believed? ”

Edward laughed, "Like I said before, I won't do anything against you during the contract period, that's a stupid choice. Since you don't want to take over the beautiful Miss Nilou, let me do it for you. ”

"What are your plans after that?"

"Let Ethan be the lord of the city, then let him do something stupid, and finally the stupid Baron Ethan committed suicide. And his title and estate, judging by the constitution of the Empire, will fall to me. At that time, I will have the power to canonize you as a knight. In the end, as long as I fight a few more beautiful wars, I can abdicate and give way to Xian. Edward said calmly: "From what I have seen and heard in the city of Suor, this Bargaon Empire is not short of wars. It has become a common practice for nobles to fight each other, and the empire turns a blind eye to wars in other places except for the important cities of the empire. We need a territory, and we can play it out, and this qiē only needs a name that is recognized by the empire. ”

He frowned again: "Actually, it is the quickest way for you to accept Miss Nilou, and you can directly become the city lord, so you don't have to make such a big detour." ”

Alan shook his head and said, "If I do this, we don't have to fight first, we will have to start our own internal strife first." ”

Edward looked out of the tent and said with a smile: "That's right, the two beautiful young ladies definitely can't stand you being taken by others." ”

"It doesn't take more than a week for the coalition forces from Sur City to arrive, and it seems that we have to make some preparations."

Alan stood up and said, "I'll go to Caesar, the Baimonites will be involved in this war." As for us, let's just target Baron York. ”

The two left the camp, and Edward had just returned, and Alan asked him to stay in the camp to rest. He took Willik and Belmode to Caesar's stockade, and as they departed, Edward muttered, "Is this a test for me?" Actually, this kind of thing is superfluous, and I have to use your power to find that person. So until then, no matter what happens, I won't do anything to destroy the walls. ”

"Alan, let's take what we need."
