Chapter 923 Welcome
Qimingxing Port is already in front of you.△↗,.
As the tide of pirates passed and the decline of the Bodi Islands, the Port of Qiming became more and more prosperous.
Many routes have been opened up, and the closer they get here, the more ships you can see.
The port has been expanded several times before, and it is not difficult to accommodate hundreds of sea boats now.
Lei Lin considered this when he chose the site and chose an open deep-water port, which showed his vision at this time.
There are dense figures on the dock, but at this time there is a wave of unique characters gathered.
The first few people were wearing gorgeous aristocratic costumes, and their good eyesight made Lei Lin vaguely see familiar faces.
The front was the Jonners and his wife. Mrs. Jonners was waving white handkerchiefs toward this side, and wiped a few more tears from time to time.
"Wuwu...child! My child! How could you leave us so cruelly? It's been so many years since you left...Wuwu..."
As soon as he got off the boat, Lelin was hugged by the Baroness before he could say hello.
Seeing this, Leilin could only nod and nodded to Baron Jonnas helplessly, and then comforted his mother.
"Okay! OK! Dear! It's something to be happy about Leilin's return!"
Baron Jonnas looks much older, his temples are slightly white, but his spirits are very good.
At this time, his decisive temperament of his original military service had been greatly diluted, and what was left was grace and calmness and calmness in holding power.
"Sir, Father! I'm back!"
Leilin smiled and saluted.
"Just come back!" Baron Jonnas nodded, and at the same time led a pair of children about five or six years old behind him.
"This is your younger brother and sister! Jack and Shalina, come on, call me brother!"
"Brother! Brother!!"
The two children had innocence and fear in their eyes. They were still ignorant at the age of ignorance, but they still listened to their father's words and shouted sweetly.
"Um!"
Lei Lin nodded. Through the bloodline, he knew that this was his father's child, but not his mother's bloodline. However, this was also very normal among nobles.
Such illegitimate children have no status at all. This can be seen from the fact that their mothers have not come together.
Moreover, as concubines, their only way out in the future was to enter the church of gods or become the housekeepers of other nobles, unless Relin was willing to divide his territory for them.
Since it posed no threat to Rayling's status, even Mrs. Jonnas showed no particular hostility.
"Jack! Shalina! Hello!
At this time, Lei Lin was of course very much like a gentle big brother. Although he didn't know it in advance, he quickly took out the gift of beautiful dolls and exquisite deerskin boots, making the two younger brothers and sisters cheer.
Lei Lin had already prepared a boat of gifts to come back and distribute them, so he naturally didn't mind having two more pieces.
"I'm relieved to see you so harmonious!"
Baron Jonnas nodded with satisfaction. Raylin did this just a statement, at least he would not worry about the raising of his children after his death.
With his understanding of Lei Lin, of course, he knew that with Lei Lin's scheming and strength, these two younger brothers and sisters were no matches at all.
"Now, I hope Jack and Shalina can be content..."
Baron Jonnas sighed in his heart.
"Yagob! Ryan!"
Then, Leilin greeted the others and gave gifts.
"Master Leilin!" Jagob and Ryan saluted respectfully, with excitement in their eyes.
They also look very old, and it's almost time to retire.
"Thank you for your hard work!" Lei Lin looked around, and then saw Zuo Na, the gold coin bishop of the Goddess of Wealth.
"And Bishop Zuona! Long time no see!"
"It's indeed a long time no see!" Zuo Na still had the appearance of the girl before. The glory of the gods delayed her aging, and she could even maintain her youthful appearance until she died, but her eyes were much more mature.
"I have a lot of things to tell you about the matter of Qimingxing Port and future cooperation, but it seems that I'll come back to visit you now!"
Bishop Zuona said very understandingly.
Leilin nodded. The host of the Temple of Wealth has not changed much here. However, the other two temples, Ogma, the God of Knowledge and the Bishop of the God of Passion, seemed to have changed their strange faces, and then they met Leilin one by one.
"Come to the wizard tower tonight, I have something for you to see!"
Mentor Ounister was still the same as before. He hurriedly said a few words and left, as if there was an important experiment.
Lei Lin's mouth raised slightly. Now it is almost time for the mage tower to be completed. I believe what the tutor wants to say is also related to this.
"At that time, I hope my progress won't scare him..."
After the cumbersome and complicated welcome ceremony, Lei Lin returned directly to the villa in Qimingxing Port.
Now with the maturity and development here, the political core of the entire island of Farland has gradually moved here, and the original manor has become a holiday courtyard.
"Young Master! Young Master!"
There were two beautiful maids waiting in the villa, and their eyes turned red when they saw Lei Lin.
"It's Sister Claire!"
Lei Lin nodded, the sisters looked much more mature. At this time, they seemed to be about to cry.
"The decorations in the room have not changed much!"
Lei Lin walked around the room with his hands on his back, and found that both the furniture decorations and the layouts of carpet curtains were exactly the same as before he left.
"Mrs. I'm afraid that the young master will not get used to it when he comes back, so let's keep it here as it is!"
Claire said softly, the girl has now grown into a strong woman.
Leilin sighed secretly.
Ordinary manor maids have been married to each other at the age of the other party, and the reason why they are still here is definitely because of their own relationship.
Before he could speak, even the sisters' father, the old housekeeper Ryan, probably wouldn't dare to make decisions without authorization.
Sometimes, a thought of the superior can greatly change the life of the people below.
However, Lei Lin had no other thoughts. It would pass by. At worst, it would be more compensation in the future.
"Buy some hot water, I'm going to take a shower and have a good sleep! I've really had enough of life at sea!"
Lelyn ordered and soon the Claire sisters finished their work well as he wanted.
After a short rest, Lei Lin did not get much time. During the period when he left, too many things had accumulated.
First of all, it was a evening cocktail party. In order to welcome him back, it was also a communication with various forces, so I had to go there.
Then, Raelin came to Baron Jonners' study again.
"You did a great job! My child! You are my pride!"
The Baron's study was much bigger than before, and the dark red coral wood emitted a faint fragrance, and even used magic props to illuminate it. Obviously, the conditions were much better.
Baron Jonnas sat behind the desk, looking at his son.
"Although things in the North are a pity, we still have to give up the Violet leader, but the title of Violet Baron can be passed on to your other descendants in the future..."
Of course, the news that Lelin was named in the Northland was also told to Baron Jonnas before.
Now his violet collar is either occupied by beast-turned people or falls into the hands of orcs, becoming part of the orc empire. It is obviously a very unrealistic thing to take it back again.
However, what Baron Jonnas values is the title of the hereditary baron!
After all, it is a hereditary aristocratic title, which is much better than the titles of those palace nobles, and can also be inherited!
Leilin's territory was lost due to war and was not deprived of its title. It has a lot of value, but of course it is much lower than when Silver Moon City was still there before.
For many nobles, losing their territory is also an unspeakable humiliation.
However, as long as the reputation is still there, it will cross the threshold of title, and it will be much easier to climb up in the future.
Even if the territory of the North is lost, it is not difficult to find another territory in Dambreth! Anyway, there are so many barren islands outside the sea, and after some operation, Raylin's hereditary baron can become the title of Dambreth! In this way, the Faoran family will have the inheritance of the titles of the two barons! The nominal strength instantly doubled!
Perhaps, in the Baron's heart, it is very happy to be able to transfer the territory back!
"With our family's current strength and trade network, it should not be difficult to influence His Majesty the King. After all, you are also hereditary nobles. As long as your territory is outside the sea and does not violate the rights and interests of those mainland nobles, I believe there will not be many people who will obstruct..."
Baron Jonnas said confidently.
However, that's it, the other party's eyes were still limited to the noble fiefdoms and trade profits.
Lei Lin listened without hesitation that his goal was to pursue eternity! However, each person's path and philosophy were different, so he did not force anything.
"Where is that Marquis of Deem? Have you caused us trouble?"
"He... I've been much more honest after coming back from Wangdu last time, it's nothing... The reason I asked you to come back is because of a few other things!"
Speaking of this, Baron Jonnas's expression gradually became cautious.
"What's the matter?" The previous letter only said a few things happened, so Leilin was not very clear about the inside story.
"In the sea... the traces of the devil and the demon are becoming more and more obvious, and the church of the murder god is also emerging, especially the return and expansion of the Barbarian Pirates..."
