Chapter 245 The Viscount's Panic

"Mr. Drell, please be very proud. Our manor has really paid the tax this year. How can we pay more gold coins and wine again? Please let us go for the sake of the same nobles."

240 gold coins, you may be able to get all the property sold, but 1,200 barrels of high-quality wine per month, how can you get it right away? Millie was already disgraceful at this time and had to beg the Viscount, hoping that he could suddenly be kind and let him go and the old and young people in the manor.

She doesn't understand yet, no, it's not that she doesn't understand, but she just doesn't want to think about this. How could this new lord of North County let her go of this "fat meat"?

"Noble? Baron Millie, you know that you are a nobleman, so you should know that every nobleman has the obligation to pay taxes to the king, and no one can avoid it. Since you still know that you are a nobleman, please pay enough taxes immediately, otherwise don't blame me for being polite."

For Dreyer, although the beauty in front of him is beautiful, how can it be as cute as the orange gold coins? He knew Baron Millie before, but because of the wine, he was just a grassroots nobleman. He had no background in power. He had been eaten by Earl Frank in the past. He had 240 gold coins and 1,200 barrels of wine every year, nearly one-third of which entered the old Earl's private pocket. Now, such a good thing is naturally his turn. What's abominable is that the dead ghost Frank actually collected this year's taxes earlier and was burned away by a fire.

It’s not that I don’t know that this manor has been “harvested” once, Drell also understood that it was impossible for him to collect the full amount this time. I wish I could not take out this small country manor at once, but for the Viscount, who is a cold-hearted person, how can he show his own methods if he doesn’t take out the manor and go straight to the sky... You know, this time he even brought the infantry team, how could he return empty-handed?

No matter how Millie begs for defense, the new lord just refused to admit it, insisting that he had never seen any accounts that had paid this year's taxes. After a long time of stuttering, Drell began to become impatient. He gave her an ultimatum. If he did not see the "deserved" taxes in half an hour, he would start smashing and looting...

...

"Seeing that Baron Millie is really planning to refuse to pay taxes, I can only fulfill my lord's obligations for the king. Come and give it to me..."

"etc!"

As a man's voice came, Lord Viscount felt that his hand was firmly held by someone and could no longer swing it...

Of course, Egg was the one who came. He hurried back, but found a team of infantry blocking his door. He quickly grabbed a panicked servant and asked the whole story. He arrived at the last moment... Of course, if it was so coincidental, it would be hard to tell whether he had any intentional components.

"Who are you? You dare to touch a nobleman!" Lord Viscount said angrily, turned his head to look at the young man. His guard sword was unsheathed, and for a moment, everyone stared at Eiger.

The uninvited guest was very young, wearing a purple robe with complex and mysterious runes on it. The slight magic fluctuations made people dare not feel disrespectful. Even the main master Drell just now had to look cautiously at this time, and the young but certainly powerful mage.

His identity is easy to recognize because this young mage has many medals on his chest. Although the Viscount, a genuine nobleman, is not strong, he is very knowledgeable about these heralds that indirectly represent their identity. He knows these things...

The bronze "Flash Gold Guardian" medal must be recognized by the bigwigs of Shining Gold Town. It is said that it can add a few attributes, but it also represents the owner of this medal. By completing very difficult tasks, he became the benefactor of the entire Shining Gold Town people... Narration: The actual effect is to increase 1 point of stamina and 1 point of strength.

The silver "Guardian of East Valley" medal has the same meaning. It must have contributed great achievements in the largest logging field and the largest source of military horses in Stormwind City, so that this medal can be worn... Narration: The actual effect is to increase 2 points of endurance and 2 points of spirit.

The same silver "Xiquan Guardian" medal was a place where professional soldiers gathered. With the private information channel of Viscount, he knew that not long ago, Xiquan Fortress applied to award this medal to a powerful warrior. It is said that it was to reward him for killing Alvin's greatest threat, the famous gnoll Hog... Narration: The actual effect is to increase 2 points of strength.

There is also a golden medal, which is the "Honorable Citizen of the Western Wilderness". Few people can receive such medals from Stormann's madman. According to Drell's news, I have never heard of anyone who can win such an honor... Narration: The actual effect is to increase 2 points of intelligence and 2 points of endurance.

Finally, there are the intermediate mage badges that can directly indicate their identity, and the baron noble badges...

Well, a powerful noble baron! Even if the title is one level lower than himself, you should not offend him easily. Lord Viscount made such a judgment in an instant, because no one knew when he would be on par with him or even surpass him. The fundamental reason was that this was a strong master with unquestionable strength.

"Your Majesty, can you take your hand away? I think you may not have known my Viscount's identity before, but I don't mind that, because I am willing to make friends with a noble like you." Drell smiled very friendly. In fact, his wrist was hurting, but he still pretended to be like a spring breeze and intersecting. For pure nobles who have no strength, it is obvious that Eiger's power index is too high, even if he is a mage.

Egg smiled slightly, and didn't want to make things too stiff. After all, this viscount is the new nominal master of the North County. People say that they would rather offend gentlemen than provoke villains. If he knew anything, there was no need to embarrass everyone: "Mr. Drell is indeed a righteous gentleman who treats others with sincerity. This demeanor made me feel heartbroken. Milly, Lord. Viscount came to visit his home specifically, why didn't there even be good tea or good wine? You, a girl who doesn't know anything, hurry up and cook a pot of good tea to apologize to the adults."

Millie and everyone were stunned. With Egg's eyes, she quickly arranged someone to go and arrange for the arrangement...

"Your Magister, I don't know..."

"My name is Eiger Stock, and Millie is my wife." Eiger laughed. At this time, Drell was already feeling bad.

Don't blame this guy for being timid, but his generations of nobles have their own information channels. His news is so well-informed that he happened to know that the MI7th Department was suspicious. The wizard named Eigle Stoke in front of him silently killed the original owner of the Frank family. No matter how arrogant he was, he was still not as good as an old noble like Earl Frank... He instantly exploded. The young man in front of him looked like he was harmless. He would not regard himself as the next target to be eliminated, right?

He began to regret why he had been trampled on this muddy water. He didn't expect that Milly would hook up with such a bad star. Oh my! Of course, this was just his psychological activity, so how dare he say it in his mouth: "It turns out it is Lord Egg. I'm lucky. I didn't expect that Milly, the great beauty, has a master of a famous flower. She is still a baron nobleman. Is you lucky?"

"Haha, thank you for your respect for my wife so much. I thank you for your behalf. Come on, this is the best green tea, which is different from the current tea. It tastes unique, please!"

Drell's mouth was full of bitterness, so he could taste anything. It was a waste of Eiger's intention. He really didn't know the "good thing" he had done before. He was very careful, but he still didn't know where he showed his feet?

Our Viscount is really intriguing now. I heard that the lord of Beijun is fat, but he spent a lot of money to clear the joints and finally defeated a group of competitors. He became the new lord of Beijun with justifiable reputation. Before taking office, he would of course understand the "local snake" of Beijun through his own channels. For old nobles like him, who can touch and who can't touch is a very particular thing, which is equivalent to the "official talisman".

After learning some insider information about the assassination of the family of the old lord Earl Frank, although the informant from MI7 did not say it directly, claiming that there was indeed not enough evidence to prove that this matter was done by this "Eiger Stoke", and even a strong man personally gave him a testimony to his absence and took him out. But this was even more terrifying. He was obviously the most suspicious and motivated, but some strong man was willing to be his backer... In the eyes of MI7, there is no need to pursue him for a dead person. Who made the old Count not favored during his lifetime?

In fact, Drell, who knows a lot about the inside story, dares to bet with people with a hundred gold coins. This matter was definitely done by this Egg, but he used some special tricks. Although he is a nobleman, he does not have much strength in his own right. Even if he is willing to spend money to hire a master to protect him, he will definitely not be willing to provoke such evil stars easily...

He began to regret now, regretting his greed and inattentiveness, and only treats Baron Millie as a piece of fat, but does not investigate her background in depth. He never expected that this bitch would hook up with the evil star in front of him. If he had known in advance, he would definitely avoid it. How could he bump into it so ignorantly?
