Fantasy Lords: Starting with the Pioneer Knight

Chapter 223: Shock to the Tulip Kingdom, family development

"I lost!"

 Zhaparov Spencer’s expression kept changing, and finally he closed his eyes and spoke in a leisurely voice.

"Your Excellency Zhaparov, please take a good rest in our Dressrosa Castle during this period of time!"

“I believe the Spencer family will give me a satisfactory answer.”

"By the way, the town of Dressrosa was also damaged due to our battle. The compensation of one hundred thousand gold coins is not enough, two hundred thousand gold coins."

“A total of five hundred thousand gold coins, and there should be no problem if the Spencer family’s green salt business gives us a share.”

Count Engel pulled out his knight's spear and spoke with a chuckle.

"impossible!"

Zhaparov Spencer originally closed his eyes in pain. After hearing Count Engel's words, he suddenly opened his eyes with a hint of anger on his expression.

 500,000 gold coins.

The huge pothole and the controlled figure in the pothole gave them a huge impact, no less than the Sky Knight's cultivation demonstrated by Count Engel just now.

 Without the Sky Knights, the Spencer family was almost eliminated early in the subsequent Kingdom War.

 Some people spoke subconsciously, but at this moment they also didn’t know how to speak.

 The men and horses returned one by one.

 But before he could figure out how to act, the Spencer family came to his door.

 This news will shake the whole kingdom.

What kind of existence is Zhaparov? The Sky Knight of the powerful Marquis Spencer family. It is said that he has entered the middle stage of the Sky Knight, but at this moment he was crushed so easily by Count Engel.

“Hurry, Mike, return to Pat City immediately and inform the Marquis!”

 It can be expected that it will not take long.

In the Pat Knights for a long time, a figure couldn't help but swallowed a mouthful of saliva.

 “Gudong!”

 The birth of a Sky Knight has a huge impact on the kingdom.

 At this moment, figures among other knights also reacted.

Green salt is a unique industry of their Spencer family. Since the Tulip Kingdom is not close to the sea, the salt comes from various well salts and lake salts every year. There is a Qinghai Lake in their Western Moon Province near the Frost Moon Province. The production of lake salt is enough to bring their family more than 30,000 gold coins in revenue every year.

 Suddenly, this figure seemed to have thought of something, and spoke eagerly.

Zhaparov Spencer's expression changed instantly, and he subconsciously wanted to speak, but at this moment Count Engel ignored him.

Even if the Spencer family doesn't take action, his next expansion will be there.

"this!"

 The changes to the entire Frost Moon Province are extremely significant.

 After all, Sky Knights and Earth Knights are different.

Never mind.

He has already set his sights on the Qinghai Lake.

That Qinghai Lake is not far away from the Dressrosa territory, only less than fifty miles away. In this case, obtaining its ownership is undoubtedly the best choice.

 Let alone harvesting, it is hard to say whether the current powerful Marquis family can be maintained.

 Even enough to create a huge sensation.

"yes!"

As a defeated person, he must pay compensation. Even if half a million gold coins would almost wipe out the ten years of accumulation of the Spencer family, he still accepted it.

 A knight responded quickly, and then quickly returned with his men and horses in the direction they came from.

As an earl family, although not every family can continuously birth earth knights, there is basically a guarantee. However, sky knights, even the powerful marquis family, may not be able to guarantee the continuous birth.

 These people almost made the same choice.

 As a powerful marquis family, they generally have independent industries.

"Your Excellency Zhaparov, this is not your decision. I believe that Marquis Spencer will make the right choice."

 His figure steps forward.

 This is a business that not even the other two major marquis families in Xiyue Province can get involved in.

 The knights who had already arrived behind him quickly controlled Zhaparov Spencer.

Zhaparov Spencer, as the only sky knight of the Spencer family, wants redemption, and the Spencer family believes that they will know how to choose.

However, he did not expect that the Dressrosa family not only wanted gold coins, but also wanted the green salt business.

After all, as he advances to the Sky Knight, if he wants to gain enough merit points, he needs to expand the family's strength, and more industries and more gold coins are indispensable.

However, this scene happened to be reflected in the eyes of the knights who had just arrived in the town of Dressrosa.

Facing the anger of Zhaparov Spencer, Count Engel was extremely casual.

"you!"

 This represents that a powerful marquis family began to be born at this moment.

 The Dressrosa family can no longer be viewed as a count family.

 After asking the horse to quickly notify the family.

These knights quickly headed towards Count Engel's location.

 Soon, these knights arrived in the small town of Dressrosa.

At this moment, they were able to see the huge pit more clearly. When everyone passed by, their hearts could not help but beat violently.

 Especially the Knights of the Pat family.

 At this moment, they were nervous and even more anxious.

 Shuangyue Province, Engel's breakthrough undoubtedly completely broke the situation in the entire Frosty Moon Province.

Of course it doesn’t matter what their mood is.

 They arrived in the small town of Dressrosa.

Without any hesitation, these knights submitted invitations to Count Engel one after another.

Count Engel did not refuse the meeting with these people and received them one by one.

 Compared with his toughness towards the Spencer family, Count Engel was extremely friendly towards these arriving families regardless of their purpose.

 Especially the Pat family.

It even showed that the Dressrosa family would not undermine the respective interests of the Frost Moon Province for the time being.

 The core heir of the Pat family could not help but breathed a sigh of relief.

 The repression of other families has completely disappeared.

Those families who made claims did not say anything, and directly promised to send the gold coins for compensation immediately. So far, they have only been delayed some time on the road.

Count Engel agreed with a smile.

It doesn’t matter whether these people’s gold coins were delayed or they were not prepared at all.

As a count for decades, Count Engel knows very well that the strength of the Dressrosa family has indeed improved through him. However, only relying on him, the strength of the entire Dressrosa family is still only one. The extent of the earl family.

 If you want to expand, it is obviously not enough at the moment.

 He still needs time.

 The family also needs time. In this case, it is better to maintain the status quo for the time being.

Anyway, as long as it can be inserted into Qinghai Lake and the compensation is obtained, Dressrosa will not be short of gold coins in a short time.

 While Engel was dealing with corresponding matters.

 The news swept away like a whirlwind.

Zhaparov Spencer came to Dressrosa to cause trouble, but was easily defeated by Count Engel and captured.

 Such news, not to mention the entire Frost Moon Province, even the entire Tulip Kingdom was shocked by it.

 Pate City.

"What?"

 “Count Engel made a breakthrough?”

Marquis Pat suddenly stood up, his expression changed drastically.

"Yes, Count Engel did break through. Lord Zhaparov and Count Engel fought in the Dressrosa family, and Lord Zhaparov was defeated in the end."

“Lord Sade has gone to visit Count Engel and asked his subordinates to report back.”

 The knight spoke respectfully.

 But his certain words made Marquis Pat unable to calm down at all.

But just at this moment.

The door was pushed open and a figure walked in.

 “Grandpa!”

 Seeing the person coming, Marquis Pat quickly spoke respectfully.

"I didn't expect that the Dressrosa family really gave birth to an eagle. You go there today. The Dressrosa family can get an additional 20% of the share of the Sahara mine. Our Pat family will give it to us. Eight percent will be taken out, and the other five percent will be drawn from the Emerson family and a dozen other earl families.”

 The old man spoke in a low voice.

"this!"

 Hearing his grandfather's words, Marquis Pat's expression couldn't help but change.

Even if they occupy only 30% of the Sahara Mine, they will immediately give up 8%, which is almost a quarter, not to mention the Dressrosa family. It already occupies 12%, which is not a low proportion. If you add 20% to it, it will be 32%, making it the largest shareholding in the Sahara Mine.

 “Do as I say!”

“Even if you don’t give these, the Dressrosa family will be able to get them sooner or later, and they can get more.”

 The old man snorted coldly.

As a Sky Knight, he clearly understands the significance of being a veteran Sky Knight in the mid-term who can defeat Zhaparov Spencer just after a breakthrough.

Especially at this moment, Count Engel is only considered to be in his prime among knights, and he has a chance to reach the peak of the Sky Knights.

 It can be expected that the Kingdom will definitely provide some support to Count Engel.

Even if he doesn't give these things, he will spit them out when the time comes, so it's better to stop them.

"yes!"

Marquis Pat, although a little entangled, faced his grandfather's words, he quickly agreed.

"By the way, that Ruby Dressrosa can tell him that the Pat family can grant him freedom at any time. If he is willing, we can let him go to the north."

 Seemingly thinking of something, Marquis Pat spoke again.

"good!"

This time, Marquis Pat was very decisive.

Although Ruby Dressrosa was very talented, he had previously promised to give Ruby Dressrosa the opportunity to achieve meritorious service in the Kingdom War, but at first it was just a pretext, and he was still struggling with whether to really give it to her.

 But at this moment, the strength of the Dressrosa family has been greatly improved, and there is no big problem in realizing the pie ahead of schedule.

"Go, don't forget to prepare another generous gift, and go to wait for Count Engel to break through the Sky Knights."

 The old man nodded and then spoke.

"yes!"

　　Marquis Pat responded.

 And it was not just the Pat family who reacted at this moment.

The powerful nobles have undoubtedly received the news at this moment.

 When the news came back, their first reaction was that it was false.

How can this be.

Even if Count Engel breaks through the Sky Knight, how can he be the opponent of Zhaparov Spencer? Zhaparov Spencer has reached the middle stage of the Sky Knight.

But soon, more news came, and they had to accept this information.

Those powerful nobles who had not prepared to compensate gold coins before began to prepare one after another at this moment.

 Even a little aggravated.

 Even the nobles who had prepared before were also preparing generous gifts.

 For a time Count Engel became the subject of heated discussion throughout the kingdom.

 Even among the three major duke families, some people paid attention to this news.

 After all, the Sky Knights, even among the Duke family, don’t have many, let alone those who can defeat the Sky Knights in the mid-term after just breaking through.

 The province of Nanyue.

 The Pu'er family.

"He actually broke through. In the past fifty years, he must be the first person from the Earl family to break through the Sky Knight."

 “Joseph, prepare a gift for me to congratulate me!”

Duke Lepu'er spoke, with a smile on his face, and gave instructions to the young man next to him.

 “Yes, Father!”

 The young man spoke respectfully.

“By the way, prepare well during this period, and try to reach the Earth Knight before the age of sixty. Over there at the ruins, you may be able to get another quota. If you miss this time, your probability of breaking through the Sky Knight will be further reduced.”

Seemingly thinking of something, Duke Lepu'er spoke again.

 “Thank you, father, I understand.”

 The young man nodded, looking a little excited.

 Even in the Duke family, the probability of breaking through the Sky Knights is not very high.

This time his father gave him a chance, even though his heart couldn't help but beat.

“Okay, that’s it, you go and do this first.”

Duke Lepu'er nodded and then ignored him.

 In the Tulip Kingdom, the three major dukes are almost the same.

　　Personnel were dispatched to go to the Dressrosa family.

 Compared to them, the Spencer family is completely unacceptable.

 This kind of information is no less than a meteorite falling on the entire family.
