Chapter 243 Viscount Silver Wing
Although dragons are gifted, they are also creatures that need sleep. When necessary, dragons will sleep for several years to complete a transformation.
Therefore, although Luther trained Alena in magic and hunting, he had to give Alena time to sleep. Therefore, after having a delicious barbecue, Luther asked Alena to fly him back to the castle.
And Alena was obviously sleepy. Not only did her flying speed decrease, but she also flew crookedly, as if she would fall at any time.
After finally flying back to the castle, the moment she entered the window, Alena fell asleep on the ground.
"If a dragon is a loyal creature, it would be quite cute." Luther smiled and touched Alena's head, then went back to his room to sleep.
The next day, Luther got up very early. After washing his face, brushing his teeth and eating, Luther came to the study, rang the bell, and asked the maid to make a cup of black tea.
He drank black tea in small sips and read the novel leisurely.
There are so many knight novels in this world. Luther has read them for so many years but he still hasn't finished them because new knight novels keep coming out.
Luther closed the book and put down the tea. Because he heard footsteps. Not long after, Old Sol came in from outside.
Old Sol was in high spirits, holding an envelope in his hand. There was a pattern printed on the back of the envelope. When Luther saw this pattern, his heart moved.
This pattern was a crown, a cloak, and a knight's sword.
This is the coat of arms of the Prussian royal family.
"The king sent me a letter, inviting me to the capital, promising to give me a court title of viscount." Old Sol smiled and handed the envelope to Luther.
But Luther put it on the desk, and then smiled and said, "Dad, do you really want to go to the capital?"
"Of course I don't want to go. Our Pompeii roots are here, in Pompeii. But I'm just very happy." Old Sol was in high spirits.
Great knight.
That's how awesome it is.
However, the reason why the king wrote to him was because Old Sol was a great knight of Orange. If the king recruited Old Sol to the capital at this time and granted him the title of Viscount, then the king's side would have one more great knight, and Orange's side would have one less great knight. This is called one rises while the other falls. The price paid was only a viscount's court title. For the king, it was a win from any angle. The king also used this method to continuously weaken the power of the great nobles in the field in order to achieve the balance of the kingdom and the purpose of strengthening the royal family. Because not everyone can be like Pompey and his son, as a knight family, but can be determined to refuse the king's olive branch. "Then refuse him, but be tactful. Because soon, we will have to rely on the power of the king to become a baron." Luther said. "Of course I know this, I'm just happy and want to have a drink with you." Old Sol said with a smile. Luther shrugged, took out a bottle of wine from the wine cabinet, added two glasses, and the father and son filled a glass, and then drank it happily.
Mainly because Old Sol was very happy, Luther was relatively calm.
Because for Old Sol, the king's recruitment was a very face-saving thing. But for Luther, the future king might not have much face.
The road for the Pompeii family will be long.
After driving away Old Sol who wanted to continue to brag, Luther lay down by the window, letting the sun shine on his face, very refreshing.
…………….
Silver Wing Territory. If the land that can be infinitely developed in the endless forest is not counted, the scale of this territory is not much different from that of Barton Territory.
The main city of the territory is Silver Wing City, in addition to several towns, and a large number of villages and farmlands.
The scale of Silver Wing City is also similar to that of Kaiyue City, and it is a small city.
It seems that this territory is very similar to Barton Territory, but in fact, there are some differences in structure.
First of all, Viscount Silver Wing has relatively few vassals, only a dozen or so. Because the Silver Wing Territory is surrounded by other noble territories, it does not have to face the threat of monsters in the endless forest, so it does not need a lord like the Pompeii family as an outpost.
Because there are fewer vassals, Viscount Silver Wing's direct forces are even stronger. What's more, there are iron mines in Viscount Silver Wing's territory.
Most of Orange is a plain area, and iron ore is rarely produced. Iron ore is a relatively precious commodity in Orange.
Therefore, Viscount Silver Wing has iron mines in his territory, which makes Viscount Silver Wing much more affluent than Baron Barton.
Viscount Silver Wing is very romantic, even more romantic than Baron Barton, with a chaotic private life, and is simply confused.
Viscount Silver Wing is over 40 years old this year, a senior knight. If he were not so romantic, according to the wealth he holds, he might have been a great knight now.
The Viscount's castle is larger and more luxurious than Barton's castle.
The structure has five floors in total, with many rooms and a hall that can hold large social dances. The decoration is also very exquisite.
The Viscount's master bedroom is on the second floor.
When the sun shone in from the window, the Viscount woke up. As a knight, it was difficult for him to sleep in, no matter how rubbish he was.
Then the Viscount kissed the woman on the face, groped her with his hands, and got up from the bed.
Lying on the bed was a very beautiful lady, with a hot body, enchanting and charming.
But she was not the Viscount's wife, who slept in another room. This was one of the Viscount's mistresses, called Lady Elisa.
Even if a nobleman wanted to meet his lover, he would not choose to stay in his castle, near his wife.
In this respect, Viscount Silver Wing was definitely a wanton person.
"Mr. Viscount, why don't you continue to lie down for a while?" Lady Elisa also woke up and asked the Viscount while lying on her side, her beautiful body in full view.
"I have to go to Kaiyue City." Viscount Silver Wing shrugged.
"Kaiyue City?" Lady Elisa was a little confused. "Don't you hate the Pompey family?"
The Habsburg family has lived in the Viscount's territory for generations, and the Habsburg family has a very close relationship with the Silver Wing family.
And because of its strength in manufacturing, the Habsburg family provides a lot of taxes to the Silver Wing Viscount every year.
But now the taxes have gone into the Pompey family's pocket.
Because of this matter, the Silver Wing Viscount has complained in public and in private. So Luther wants to expand the factory and recruit workers.
The plan is to greet the surrounding nobles and recruit workers in their territories.
But not to recruit workers in Silver Wing City.
There is no need to create friction.
