Chapter Twenty-Nine: The Arrival of the Viscount

When the meeting was over, I returned to the Baron's Palace, full of joy, and told the inhabitants to hurry to action.

This feeling of being a nobleman is really comfortable.

I was lying comfortably in my chair, sitting on a high place and looking out at the situation, and I had the pleasure of being a king.

While I was enjoying myself, Xiaohong suddenly walked into the baron's mansion and said to me in surprise, "Lord Baron, you haven't started to prepare yet?" ”

"Huh?"

I was stunned for a moment and asked in wonder, "What are you going to prepare?" ”

"Meet your superiors......," Xiaohong explained, "Your superiors will come to meet you at noon today." ”

My eyes widened in disbelief, "I still have a fucking superior?" ”

Xiaohong rolled her eyes and said, "You have to pay taxes." Generally speaking, every year it is the duke who pays taxes to the emperor, and the marquis pays taxes to the duke, and the marquis pays taxes to the earl...... Got it? ”

I wondered, "It means that everyone is running errands for the emperor, right?" ”

"Yes. It is all handed over to the treasury in a unified manner, and your superior is Viscount Quanlin, who will come over at noon today to discuss with you about paying taxes. Xiaohong said.

I suddenly realized, and muttered: "This Viscount Quanlin is quite kind, he actually came over in person, it stands to reason that he is my superior, I should take the initiative to send it to him." ”

Xiaohong smiled bitterly: "It's good that this is the case." ”

"What?" I wondered.

Xiaohong sighed and said, "Viscount Quanlin is still quite greedy, you better be careful." ”

I was puzzled for a while, and I also had some curiosity about this Viscount Quanlin. So I thought about it and asked, "I used to pay a hundred catties of gold to Viscount Quanlin every month, right?" ”

"Yes." Xiaohong nodded.

I hummed and asked Xiaohong to quickly call someone to prepare the food and drinks. After all, the superiors are coming, and I must be ready here.

At noon, I was in the baron's palace checking the economic statements here, when suddenly a shout rang out from outside: "Your Excellency the Viscount has arrived." ”

I quickly stood up, put on a smile and walked out. As soon as I walked out of the door, I saw an obese middle-aged man standing outside, looking swaggering and arrogant.

"Lord Viscount has arrived, and you are not welcome...... "I said with a smile, "Please come in quickly, Lord Viscount, the little one has already prepared a coarse tea and light meal." ”

He glanced at me and said indifferently, "Oh, I'll take a look at your place first." ”

He looked around with interest, and then said with emotion: "Aoyagi is a waste. I can't even hold a fiefdom, and I took it away from you like this. ”

"Huh?"

What do I mean by something like this?

I suddenly had a bad premonition in my heart, it seems that this Viscount Quanlin is not good. I didn't know what to say for a while, after all, he was the boss, and I couldn't just go back at the beginning, so I planned to wait and see what happened.

He looked at it for a while, and then finally came into my room. When he came in, the first thing he said was slowly: "The wine and food are okay." ”

I chuckled, "Your Excellency, please take a seat." ”

Viscount Quanlin sat directly on the main seat, and to my surprise, after he sat up, he actually lifted Erlang's legs and put his legs directly on the table, and the unqualified scene made me almost want to go crazy. But he yawned and said nonchalantly, "Pour the bar." ”

I could only pour wine for Viscount Quanlin with a smile, and said with a smile: "Your Excellency's visit this time really makes me shine." I hope that from now on, we can work together well. What Aoyagi did well in the past, I will redouble my efforts to do well. And if Aoyagi doesn't do well here, I'll try to get rid of it. ”

"Oh, let's talk about it directly......" Viscount Quanlin picked up his wine glass. Then he casually poured the wine on the ground and said, "Wash the glass, and you pour another glass." ”

I'll fuck you!

I was furious. But he could only hold back his anger and poured another glass of wine for Viscount Quanlin. I saw him take a sip of his wine glass, and said calmly: "Aoyagi, this person, he does a decent job on weekdays, but there are still many deficiencies. But ah, you're a newcomer, I'm afraid a lot of things won't work out. It's okay, since I'm in charge of your side, I'll naturally help you. You see, you've just taken down this fiefdom, so you definitely need someone to help you station, right? I'm afraid that you'll take the station today and be taken away tomorrow. So be it. I'll send 500 people to help you guard the fiefdom, and you can just pay a little hardship. ”

I was stunned when I heard this, and I suddenly had a bad premonition in my heart.

If he had his people stationed here, wouldn't my territory be his?

I subconsciously said: "Lord Viscount, I won't bother you about this, since I have won this fief, I have the confidence to develop it well." ”

"You young people, you don't think about ...... when you do things," Viscount Quanlin shook his head and sighed and said, "Jiang Cheng, although it is true that you have won the fief, your experience in managing this area still has a lot to be desired. There are some things that I might as well help you. ”

I smiled bitterly and said, "Lord Viscount, I really don't need this, I can handle it myself." ”

Viscount Quanlin frowned, and said in a deep voice, "Are you not giving me face?" ”

"Little ones don't dare ......," I whispered, "but I've already said it." I have the confidence to manage this fiefdom well. ”

"I brought a document, you can read it for yourself, I believe you will feel very suitable after reading this document."

Viscount Quanlin didn't seem too lazy to talk to me more. He took a document from his bosom and handed it to me. I took it and looked at it in confusion, and found that it was actually a contract.

"The two sides have signed the following agreement on the principles of friendship, fairness and mutual assistance.

In order to help Baron Jiang Cheng, Viscount Quanlin will have the following conditions.

First: Viscount Quanlin is willing to provide five hundred soldiers every month to defend the peace of Baron Jiangcheng's fief.

Second: Viscount Quanlin is willing to provide a thousand pieces of clothing to Baron Jiang Cheng every month.

Third: Viscount Quanlin is willing to provide 10,000 catties of food to Baron Jiang Cheng every month.

Fourth: Viscount Quanlin is willing to provide his experience to Baron Jiang Cheng.

All of the above behaviors are paid for payment. Viscount Jiang Cheng needs to provide Viscount Quanlin with 400 catties of gold as a reward every month. ”

What about the pit daddy!

I almost couldn't help but tear up this contract, a thousand clothes? When the time comes, just give me a thousand pieces of torn clothes!

There are also 10,000 catties of food, is it directly given 10,000 catties of rice?

Just such a thing, and you have to collect 400 catties of gold from me every month!?

I've seen a cheating daddy. But I've never seen such a daddy!

I took a deep breath, gritted my teeth, and said, "Lord Viscount, this condition ...... I'm afraid I can't afford it. ”

"You're still young, and you always need someone to help you......" Viscount Quanlin said with a yawn. It's okay, sign this contract, and I'll take you with me later. ”

I gritted my teeth, put the contract on the table, and said solemnly, "Sorry, I don't want to sign it." ”

"Jiang Cheng, don't take yourself too seriously...... "At this moment, a Viscount Quanlin who was standing at the door scolded me irritably, "Lord Viscount is willing to help you, it is your eight lifetimes of cultivation that you have cultivated." How many people want you to have this treatment, don't think that you won Aoyagi by a small means, you really think that you have the strength of the nobility! ”

I heard the anger in my heart explode. Gritted his teeth and said, "Feelings, are you here to find fault?" ”

"Be mindful of your words."

Viscount Quanlin stood up, he was a head taller than me, looked at me condescendingly, and said coldly: "I'm not here to find fault. Because you don't have the qualifications to make me find fault at all. Remember Jiang Cheng, I'm here to teach you how to obey the rules. ”

I immediately became furious and said, "Fart! ”

"Presumptuous!"

Viscount Quanlin's face turned cold, and he suddenly slashed at me. I subconsciously wanted to resist this attack, but he was very strong. They beat me upside down and flew out.

I fell to the ground and felt a lick in my throat and a mouthful of blood spurted out.

It's so strong!

"When you do things with me, you have to follow the rules. Do you really think that a person like you, who is lucky enough to become a nobleman, can win respect......" Viscount Quanlin sneered and said indifferently, "Tell you, treat you as a baron." You're a minion. If I don't treat you as a baron, you don't even deserve to be my minion! ”
