"Boris, did you really go to the Storm Territory? So, is it true that your butler said that the competition between you and the Storm Territory was because the second son formed an offensive and defensive alliance?" Bello couldn't believe it, and then looked Boris up and down, curious as to why he could Returned in perfect condition.
"Well, it's true!" Bello's reaction was normal. If he had heard of any noble going to the Storm Territory in the past, he would have had this expression, so Boris didn't care.
However, the offensive and defensive alliance is related to the fact that sugar is a secret, so Boris immediately changed the subject, "Bello, tell me, what do you want to do in the Black Rock Territory this time? In the past, you always liked to play Tulip City Run!"
Boris wanted to change the subject, but he didn't know that Bello came here for sugar, "Hey, it's not just for sugar, Boris, I have you as a friend, you can't be stingy, you must sell me ten cans this time!" "
"You finished eating it so quickly? Last time I specially sold three cans to you, while other nobles only had one can."
"I finished eating it a long time ago. My father gave it back to my three younger brothers and sisters, and they all finished it in one fell swoop! Boris, do you know how the nobles in Tulip City talk about sugar now?"
"They all say that this white sugar is a gift from the gods. It is sweeter than honey. When made, white bread tastes countless times more delicious than before!"
"Now many nobles don't know if they can still buy it in the future, so they all spend two gold coins to buy a can of sugar. This time, Boris, you will make a fortune. The rise of the Black Rock family is just around the corner!"
"Two gold coins per jar?" Boris was stunned.
He doesn't go to Tulip City very much now, so he hasn't heard much about the follow-up reaction to Sugar.
However, the last time we sold sugar, it went very smoothly, so this result is not unexpected.
He had already brought back the second batch of sugar during today's trip, but he didn't expect to hear the news.
"Boris, to be honest, your sugar is very rare. Don't say that I, Bello, take advantage of you. I am also willing to pay two gold coins for each jar. This time you have to give me ten jars of sugar."
"Ten cans? That's too much. I can only give you five cans at most. The price will be based on one gold coin!" Although Boris wanted to increase the price, he had a friend in front of him, and if he really increased the price, he would have to negotiate with Nalant. It is subject to negotiation, so it can only be sold at the original price.
However, he had an idea in his mind that maybe he could send a messenger to discuss it with Narant later. Since the output this year is not much, it is better to raise the price directly, so that both of them can earn more.
"Okay! Five cans is five cans, Boris, I am honored to have you as my good friend, Boris." Bello beamed, adding sugar to the toasted bread is so delicious that it makes people drool just thinking about it.
The fluffy and sweet taste is something that cannot be achieved with honey.
In fact, he didn't finish all the cans of sugar. Although a lot of it was taken away by his father and brothers and sisters, he also stored a small amount in the manor.
Only this time I went to Tulip City and heard that white sugar has been sought after by the nobles. Anyone who wants to use white bread with white sugar to serve guests will be very proud.
Therefore, he came to Boris non-stop to buy and prepare to store it.
He knows Boris's character. If there is a lot of sugar, it will be sold out at once and make a lot of money. Now it seems that the sugar is still very thin.
"Hey!" At this moment, Bello finally turned his attention to the carriage behind him.
Two of the carriages parked directly in the vestibule and were not pulled to the stable to unload their goods. When the cowhide tarpaulin above was torn off by the guards, he was stunned.
"Boris, there is..."
"There is a trebuchet!" Boris was not going to hide this thing. He was ready to publicize it from the beginning. After all, this thing has a great reputation.
"You...this...where did you buy it from? The Earl family doesn't sell trebuchets, does it?"
"Hey, I got the Black Iron Earl, but I didn't buy it, it was given as a gift!" Boris said with a smile.
"A gift?"
"That's right, didn't I go to the Storm Territory this time? I encountered an invasion of nearly a hundred dark creatures. That dark creature was so cruel and evil. There were only three...seven or eight second-level hell dogs... There are more than ten second-level headless knights, well... there is only one third-level death knight..." Boris's heart was not beating and his face was not red.
"So many dark creatures?" Bello couldn't believe it.
"There were so many, I was scared at the time! In addition to me and Sir Nalant, the illegitimate son Baron Quint was also present."
"When the illegitimate son Quint saw the dark creature, he screamed and ran away in fright. Seeing this, Narant and I were originally prepared to fight, but Quint's escape shook the morale of the army, so we could only follow. Retreat with him!"
"We ran until we were near Quint's Castle. At that time, Quint entered the castle and immediately closed the door. We could only hide not far from Quint's Castle!"
"Dark creatures, as you know, like to infiltrate the castle first. In the end, Quint Castle was breached!"
"In this critical moment, Sir Narante and I stepped forward in the spirit of chivalry and rescued him.
"In the end, in order to repay the favor of saving his life, Quint gave Nalant a small territory, a yellow elf and a trebuchet."
"And I have these two trebuchets! In fact, Quint wanted to take some more things to thank me, but I saw that there was no one alive in Boris's castle, and it was quite miserable, so I refused."
"..." Bello was stunned for a moment. He always felt that something was wrong here.
There is an expression in my eyes that says I think you are lying to me, but I have no evidence.
After all, Boris's expression was very natural during the description, and the two small trebuchets couldn't be faked.
"Let's go, don't be in a daze! Let's go in first, and I'll treat you to white sugar and white bread later!" Boris smiled and entered the inner castle with his good friend.
This is a slight exaggeration, but it can be considered as "normal operation" for some nobles. There are indeed hundreds of dark creatures, Boris is not lying, and there are indeed many headless horsemen and hell dogs.
As for... why they originally wanted to fight to deal with it, but it was a pity that Quint took the lead and ran away... That was only a small detail. Anyway, they did wipe out the dark creatures in the end, and Quint was a 'thank you' as proof...
Boris is not guilty at all...
…
Meanwhile, Tulip Castle.
"Miss, big news!" Tulip Flower was in the gorgeous manor house, and the personal maid Lina entered the hall shouting.
"What's the big news?" Stella was interrupted from her meditation and looked at Lina with some doubts. Although Lina usually didn't pay much attention, she rarely interrupted her like this when she was practicing.
"Miss, Baron Andrew just came to the castle again!" Lina still had a little sweat on her face, and she was obviously running a little faster, "and when he came, he also brought Sir Walad with him. Sir Walad has already He beat him into a pig's head!"
"Huh? Baron Andrew beat Sir Wallad into a pig's head? Why is this?" Stella also showed a slight surprise. Although the nobles were not all in harmony, it was really rare for them to fight directly.
Generally, they will complain to the monarch or the noble council.
