Bright Era

Vias Commercial Federation is a very magical place. Its magic has been described in detail before, that is, as long as you have money, you can buy anything. For example, hereditary nobility titles and territories can be bought with money.

Of course, if you don’t have enough money to buy titles and territories from the government, you can spend a little money and buy a complete set that is exactly the same as the original product. Even the paper and ink used are exactly the same, and the same is true. Noble certificate from the Noble Administration Office of the Executive Government.

Passports, certificates, seals, and all corresponding official documents, everything! Unless someone is willing to go all the way to the Noble House of the Vyas Commercial Federation and spend a lot of money and time to verify it, no one can be sure whether the person holding these things is a real noble or a counterfeit.

It is precisely because the market of the Vias Commercial Federation is full of such hereditary aristocrats that only exist in the documents, so other countries in the mainland are very uncomfortable with the aristocrats of Vias. All the real aristocrats in the western continent agree that, The nobles of Vias are the richest in the world, but the least valuable aristocrats with the lowest gold content.

A true nobleman may be surrounded by a hundred written nobles, and Vias’ aristocratic group is the largest in the world.

As the most profitable follower of Lin Qi, Alda transferred a small amount of money in Vias Harbour. It is logical that he spent hundreds of thousands of gold coins to purchase a complete set of documents of the "Earl of Pink Lily Family" . In other words, the current Arda is Lord Pink Lily, and no longer the Abyssal Demon Arda.

This identity is in the Vias's vehicle, and it is basically a bad street. But in this obviously remote and backward mountain village, when Arda proudly took out his passport and flashed it to the chubby tax official, the tax official and the four soldiers suddenly fell to the ground, respectfully. Jing repeatedly shouted the Lord countlessly.

Not only the tax official and his entourage, but the villagers around the square also hurriedly knelt on the ground, almost squatting on the ground, not daring to make a sound. Only the girl who Alda had molested just now was flushed and surreptitiously glanced at Alda from the corner of her eye.

After Alda's order, the fat tax officer immediately came to Lin Qi and introduced the situation here.

In the middle of the continent, between the two powerful empires, the Gaul Empire and the Caesar Empire, there is a large mountain range stretching more than two thousand miles. In the heart of the mountain range, there is a natural canyon channel connecting the two empires.

There are two small kingdoms, four small duchies and eight independent marquis in densely piled up in the canyon passage with a length of seven hundred miles and two hundred miles at its widest point. The two empires allowed the small countries in this canyon channel to fend for themselves and act as a buffer zone between the two empires. With no external pressure, these dozens of small forces were raging into the sky. , Basically every month there will be three or five border conflicts between these fourteen large and small forces.

Because this canyon channel is so noisy, the western continent vividly calls it the "mainland appendix".

The place where Lin Qi and others are now is a small viscountry under the Lanyue Principality, one of the four small duchy. The land area of ​​Lanyue Principality was originally small, and one of its subordinates was pitifully small. Except for a small manor directly under the viscount, only three villages in the deep mountains belonged to him.

Aris, the fat tax officer, is the confidant of the Viscount Chuli, who is responsible for the taxation, finances, and cashiers of the Viscountry. In fact, he has all the financial powers of the Viscountry, because the annual income of the Viscount Chuli is only At 1,000 gold coins, he simply can't afford too many staff.

Lin Qi couldn't help but cocked his mouth and looked at the outfits of the four soldiers behind Fatty Aris. The ragged equipment was not even comparable to the equipment of the Gaul Empire militia. One can imagine how poor this Viscount Qiuli was, and how embarrassed this Lanyue Principality was.

Is such a poor duchy still the most powerful of the four duchy? Is there even power to threaten the borders of the other two small kingdoms? Lin Qi felt that he was listening to the myth. Lin Qi, who was used to seeing elite soldiers and powerful generals, couldn't imagine what kind of life these dozens of large and small forces lived in this small valley of appendix.

A dozen carts behind Aris contained the property he had just collected.

The grain of the ten carts, these grains are not only the rations of Viscount Qiuli, but also the rations of his private army of fifty people. In addition, there are some fresh medicinal materials, some animal skins and meat, and village brewed wine in the remaining trucks. Among them, the most valuable are the three skins of low-level monsters. These are the skins of the low-level monster'Wind Wolf' killed by hunters in the village with traps and poisoned nest bows. After each skin is tanned, You can go to the capital of Lanyue Principality and sell one hundred gold coins for a'sky price'.

Lin Qi noticed that there was still a small purse around Aris’ waist. When he walked around, the coins inside made a crisp sound. Based on Lin Qi’s experience, there should be 18 to 20 coins inside. There will not be too many silver coins, nor too few silver coins, and they are definitely silver coins, there will be no gold coins, because the impact of gold coins and silver coins is completely different.

These silver coins should have been a little extra for Aris. After all, as a tax officer, he came to such a poor country to collect taxes once. If he doesn't make a profit, how can he support his family?

After pondering for a while, Lin Qi slowly said, "As Master Aris sees."

Aris bowed to Lin Qi flatly: "Oh, please don't use the word adult, just call me Aris."

Nodded, Lin Qi smiled and said: "Then Aris, as you can see, my entourage and I went out to play, unfortunately we ran into a bandit, a very powerful bandit. Fortunately, there is a powerful bandit around me. The magician protects me so we can escape with the power of magic."

Jiawu gave a light cough, and he pointed it out, and a fist-sized fireball shot out, burning a stone on the square into magma. Jiawu frowned unhappily. He was just injured by Yunjun's back shock. There was a problem with his magic control, and he used too much magic.

Originally, Gawul only wanted to blow the stone to pieces, but the temperature of the fireball he condensed was slightly higher, causing the stone to be burned. But the effect is still the same. Aris's legs softened, and once again he fell to his knees in fright and did not dare to raise his head, and the villagers lowered their heads in fear. A powerful magician, in such a small place, a magician is like a god.

Looking at Aris with cold eyes, Lin Qi said solemnly: "I hope to stay in the house of Viscount Chuli for a while. Several of my entourage and I are injured. We need a quiet place to recuperate. Of course, we will. Give back enough to satisfy Viscount Chuli."

Aris was trembling with excitement. Arda is a noble earl, and he is just a follower of Lin Qi, that is to say, Lin Qi's identity is even more noble! What a great opportunity for such a big man to go to the territory of Viscount Qiuli to heal his wounds! Maybe Viscount Qiuli can catch up on this line and grow stronger through Lin Qi's relationship!

Aris didn't dare to have too whimsical dreams, he just hoped that Viscount Chuli could become an earl, and Aris was very satisfied. There are only four earls in Lanyue Duchy, each of whom has a large territory, and their annual income is more than one hundred times that of Viscount Qiuli. Aris only hopes that Viscount Chuli can become an earl, so that he can embezzle as much as he wants!

"Your Majesty, Viscount Qiuli will definitely welcome you with the greatest enthusiasm! My God, have you been injured by the wicked bandit? You need... Sorry, maybe you can only use this simple big The car is heading to the Viscount’s mansion." Aris's face flushed for a while. He only has a dozen carts for transporting goods here, but there is no decent transportation.

Don't talk about him, even Viscount Chuli has only a few horses that can't be held on the table, and the wife of Viscount Chuli only has an ordinary two-wheeled carriage. As a little country nobleman with an annual income of only 1,000 gold coins, can you ask for more?

Lin Qi waved his hand generously: "No need, although I was injured a little, I can still walk!"

Taking a deep breath, Lin Qi stood up steadily with pure muscle strength. He was careful not to make too many movements in the upper body, lest the broken bones rub against each other and cause more damage. The healing medicine he had just taken was working, and he could feel the itching of the broken bones, which was a sign that the bones were healing.

This kind of trauma is nothing to Lin Qi. His body has terrible resilience. Give him a little time to heal from the injury.

The trouble is that the ten blue dragon qijin, they sealed all the power in Lin Qi's body, this is the most headache for Lin Qi.

So Lin Qi needed a safe and quiet place to heal his injuries, a remote little noble territory, and there was no more ideal choice than this place. As long as Lin Qi can destroy the Qinglong Qijin that has imprisoned his mental power, Lin Qi decided that this time he must gather a large group of powerful followers to protect himself.

Damn Yun Jun, Lin Qi wouldn't just let him go.

Looking at Xiong Wanjin, who was crying on the ground, Lin Qi sternly shouted: "Brother Bear, if you still want revenge, just follow me!"

Xiong Wanjin was taken aback for a moment, and then he got up to his feet, wiped off the tears on his face, and clenched his teeth to Lin Qi's side.

Lin Qi glanced at Aris and said softly: "Lauris, please lead the way. We are really tired and just want to have a good rest."

Aris hurriedly bowed to Lin Qi and then led the four soldiers to lead the way. Dozens of civilians were dispatched in the village to drove the cart with Lin Qi and his group slowly to the outside of the mountain, all the way to the territory of Viscount Qiuli. (To be continued.
