The Extraordinary Earl

Chapter 29 The Strength of the Barton Family

Luther thought that this Lucy, Master Barton, had something special to say to him. After all, the two had no friendship before this.

And Lucy, Barton even sent Newton and others away, and the two talked alone.

So Luther found such a secluded place to give Lucy, Barton a chance to speak.

But unexpectedly, things were not what Luther imagined.

Lucy, Barton smiled elegantly, looked at Luther and raised his eyes to block his gaze, and said very uncharacteristically: "Luther, what do you think of the girls who came here tonight?"

Luther was very surprised, these words were completely different from what he thought. He recalled the cautious look of his cousin before he left.

So Luther thought for a while before saying, "They are all young and beautiful girls."

Lucy, Barton smiled and shook his head, saying, "You lied. I can see that you look down on these girls. Otherwise, you should be chatting with them now, and you should have a wonderful night tonight. Instead of staying with Newton, Soren and others."

Luther was a little speechless, thinking.

Although he really didn't want to get married so early, tonight was just a deal. But it was obviously a bit too obvious.

Sweat.

At this time, Lucy Barton said again: "But, I understand it. After all, the girls here, although they have noble status, are all country girls. Luther, the outstanding heir of the Pompeii family, you can have as many such women as you want. If you get in touch with them too much, you will always get a little bored."

At this point, Lucy Barton smiled ambiguously and said to Luther: "I know some girls from noble families. They live in the city and are much better than these country girls. Do you want me to introduce some to you?"

Luther was a little moved. He looked at this young master Lucy Barton carefully. He has the pale skin that is popular in the capital.

A handsome face and elegant manners.

Luther believed that the other party said that he would introduce him to some girls from noble families. Although he is a baron family, he has a large fiefdom and 20 to 30 vassals. He is one of the nobles, although he may be at the bottom.

But it is not surprising to know some girls from noble families.

Girls from noble families are almost always attractive to people like Luther who are born into a knightly lord family.

But Luther is not included, because Luther is determined to become a man of noble families.

Just like what some people say.

"I am a wealthy family myself, why do I need to find a wealthy family to marry?"

So Luther was not overwhelmed by the temptation of Lucy and Barton, but calmly analyzed the purpose of Lucy and Barton's words.

The other party is suspected of pimping, but it is obviously impossible for the other party to be a pimp with his identity.

Then the other party must have a purpose.

What is the purpose? With the information Luther has at present and his own political level, it is still unclear what it means.

But Luther is also smart, and vaguely feels that the other party should be asking him to befriend him.

This is worth pondering.

The other party is the third son of Baron Barton, and their Pompeii family is one of Baron Baron's vassals. And the noble inheritance law in this world is the eldest son inheritance.

That is to say, this Lucy, the third young master of Barton, is likely to inherit the Barton surname and a fortune in the future and become a descendant of the nobility.

There is almost no possibility of Baron Barton's position.

But now the third young master deliberately makes friends with him, obviously he has some ideas.

Luther couldn't help but sigh in his heart, "Where there are people, there are rivers and lakes, the ancients are not deceiving me."

Baron Baron's fiefdom is not too big, but not small. He has a city, several towns, and 20 to 30 knight lords.

Luther doesn't know the exact population, but it is definitely not less than 100,000, or even close to 200,000. He has at least 100 knights and about 10,000 basic military forces.

Such strength can be called a small kingdom.

Who wouldn't be jealous?

Luther felt that he was vaguely involved in a bloody plot of family struggle for power.

Luther was still a little worried that Lucy, Barton would say some more explicit words of recruitment next, and he couldn't handle it.

After all, Luther is not a natural politician. He is still a budding politician in this respect. He is more willing to develop his territory and grow up in a vulgar way.

When did he become a great noble and hold power by himself?

There is no need to learn politician skills. Just use force to suppress.

Fortunately, what Luther was worried about did not happen. The third young master in front of him was quite reserved. He did not say anything to recruit him. He just said some ordinary words to Luther.

It was like two friends who just met, talking.

The content was also very aristocratic, talking about beauties and knights.

Talking about the purebred horses raised by the nobles in the royal capital, talking about poetry. In short, this Lucy, the third young master of Barton, has shown an attitude of making friends, but did not make further statements.

Instead, he patiently showed his sincerity and wanted to make friends with Luther.

Not long after, the conversation between the two ended. Lucy, Barton did not forget to take Luther to meet the girls of the great nobles.

"If you have a chance to come and play with me, those young or beautiful girls will definitely make your trip worthwhile."

"Do young girls still use the word beautiful? I guess some young girls are not very old, but their bodies have been developed and matured. I dare not touch such girls."

Luther complained in his heart, but he smiled and agreed, saying that he would definitely go back.

So, Lucy Barton ended the conversation with Luther in a very happy mood, and then the two went back to the hall together.

The two returned to the hall, and Lucy Barton left as if nothing had happened. Go drink by yourself and enjoy yourself. Because Old Sol and others have gone to another place, several old friends went to talk together.

It is estimated that they talked about some kind of rebellion.

However, some young girls and even single ladies went to talk to Lucy Barton.

Although he is the third son of Baron Barton, he basically has no chance of getting the title. But the third son of the baron will definitely inherit a considerable fortune in the future. Lucy Barton is very popular.

The girls have a lot of ideas, because they can see that Luther is obviously not interested in them. Since he couldn't climb the big tree of the Pompeii family, it seemed like a good idea to fish for the third young master.

The single ladies had a simpler idea. The third young master was so handsome. It seemed like a good idea to have a romantic history with him.

The circle of the rich is really messy!

On Luther's side, Newton and the others came up to him, all with a look of concern. Luther shook his head at Newton and signaled to wait for a while. He found the old housekeeper and asked where Old Sol was.

Then he went to find Old Sol.

With the information he currently had and the political skill tree, he could only vaguely guess a little, but he had to ask Old Sol for more details.

Although Luther would rather stay in the countryside to develop his territory and grow up in a humble way.

But with the current strength of the Pompeii Territory, it still needs to be more cautious in the face of such things as the Barton family.

Some things can't be avoided.
