Chapter 116, The Dance of the Bear(1/2)
The dispute between Hudson and Baron Sith cooled down, and the new Baron Kayo could not only watch, and the chaotic two counties suddenly fell silent.
After the noisy days are too long, it will always make people feel uncomfortable.
Wyton, the nobles among the two counties of Lait, had such a mentality at this moment. They were afraid that this was the last tranquility before the storm came, and they all lived their lives with fear.
Some noble lords who were weak and unable to withstand the troubles had already started to move and asked around for what was going on.
As one of the most influential figures, Mr. Hudson naturally has no shortage of guests here. He just wanted to ask about the development of the situation, but he was obviously looking for the wrong person.
Originally, Hudson was ready to face the chaos. While actively expanding his arms, he eased relations with his opponents, and did not forget to connect people everywhere.
The preparations were done thoroughly, but the situation suddenly changed. The new Baron Kayo didn't know what was going on, so he let everyone fool him and remained unmoved.
Without this leader, the nobles who originally wanted to take revenge were naturally disappointed.
People are slight and slight, and no matter how disappointed they are, they have no capital to make trouble as losers.
If the Dalton family cannot get involved in the tiger skin, and it cannot drag more local aristocrats into the water, only their own strength will compete with a group of northern border aristocrats, which will only repeat the devastating defeat last year.
Losing once is a miserable enough. No one can stand it if he struggles again. He had no choice but to force his anger to suppress his inner anger.
As a bystander, Hudson could only roughly infer the purpose of Baron Kayo's doing this. It was nothing more than involving kingdom politics. It was not convenient for the Dalton family to drive out the northern border nobles.
The local nobles wanted to do it, but they supported it 10,000 yuan, but they couldn't participate in it in person.
If it involves family interests and is not convenient to take action, you can only stay silent first. After all, the way to play small-scale fights cannot do anything to the northern border nobles.
Just know these things yourself. If you reveal them, you are making trouble for the Dalton family.
The back garden of our home made others reach into a tentacle, which was obviously temporarily at a disadvantage in the high-level political struggle.
This kind of destruction is not only a shame for the Dalton family, but also a possibility of reducing their dominance over the Southeast Province.
The guys in the northern Xinjiang did not publicize it. It’s not that they didn’t know it. The bigger thing is that they were worried about getting angry with the Dalton family and causing a thunderous blow.
Those who have backstage should be restrained. Those who have no political backing should be even more cautious.
Looking at everyone's anxious faces, Hudson was also helpless.
If you have a good relationship, give a look of peace of mind; if you have a few words of comfort, you will send someone away.
There is only so much you can do, and whether you can understand the profound meaning depends on your ability. If you don’t have a strong political mind, you can only deserve to be frightened.
"Master, Baron Kayo-Dalton is visiting! People are in the living room at this moment, so come and receive it!"
Seeing the old butler's excited expression, Hudson was speechless. Everyone was a baron, so it was necessary to do this...
Although he complained in his heart, he still walked out honestly. The Baron was nothing, and Master Hudson was also one of the top barons among the Southeast Province.
But if the Baron's surname is given "Dalton", it will become different. At least in the entire Southeast Province, everyone has to sell their face.
No matter what, people come to visit the door and have to give them enough face. Otherwise, they will say that Hudson is not polite.
...
Looking at the person who was holding the magic wand, Hudson felt a bit like "Li Gui met Li Kui", and his intuition told him that he was in trouble.
"I have heard of Baron Kayo's name for a long time. I saw it today and it was indeed very arrogant. I was busy with territorial affairs a few days ago and could not visit..."
Hudson felt hypocritical as he talked about the excuse that he didn't believe it, but the enthusiasm on his face did not diminish at all.
Other nobles went to visit Baron Kayo in order to hold on and flatter him. In order to get a good relationship, they could be taken care of in the future.
Hudson is neither interested nor used to use these hidden benefits, so he naturally doesn't have to make things uncomfortable for himself.
There are circles where there are people, and now Hudson is also the boss of a small circle. When doing things, you must also consider the influence.
At this critical moment, if you go to visit Baron Kayo, you may be interpreted politically as - bowing your head.
There is no doubt that such things must not be done. As the most famous aristocrat among the local aristocrats, Hudson also has another responsibility - checking and balancing the Baron Kayo.
This is not a question of whether or not, but a group of local aristocrats hope that this kind of checks and balances exist, and it is also what other aristocratic factions in the province want to see.
There seems to be no benefit on the surface, but there is definitely a lot of support that can be obtained secretly. At least when something happens, someone can stand up and help speak.
If the task is completed well, then at a suitable time, someone will send an olive branch, and Hudson will most likely join a certain aristocratic faction.
Although these aristocratic factions are slightly weak, they must have someone on the central government to check and balance Dalton in the southeastern province.
"Baron Hudson is welcome. I came here this time mainly to communicate magic. The great magician Kam Boyin once said: Communication makes people progress.
Magic in the southeastern provinces is not prosperous. There are only two magicians in the two counties of Lait and Wyden, and we will have to get close to each other in the future.
…”
After hearing Baron Kayo's words, Hudson could only complain secretly. What should come will come eventually, but he didn't expect it to come so quickly.
Originally, Hudson thought he was knowledgeable (after reading his own collection of books), even if his professional knowledge was limited, he could still get rid of it.
In terms of theoretical knowledge, there are a little flaws, and it can be attributed to the lack of systematic learning.
At least the last time I communicated with Miss Melissa, I got it over and learned a lot of basic knowledge of magicians.
I didn't expect the slap in the face to come so quickly. "Kemu Boyin" - the greatest alchemist in human history. He was known to all the nobles on the continent.
But his history books only emphasize his contributions in alchemy and have never mentioned magic at all. I never expected that this guy was still a great magician.
The sadness of the little nobles, and the ancestors accidentally recorded the mistakes of common sense.
"Baron Kayo is kind to you. Compared with your orthodox mages, I, a mage who relies on luck, have a far worse knowledge reserve in all aspects.
Being able to communicate magic knowledge with you is a good learning opportunity for me. Please don’t dislike me.”
If you don’t understand, you don’t understand. Hudson puts his posture very low. Although you can cheat on bears, the magic concept of the Earth Bear clan does not mean that it is also applicable to human races.
At least he had been together for so long, but he had never noticed that the bears had used spells. When fighting, they usually slap them.
Magical attacks always appear without God knowing it or Hudson.
If this is placed on the human race, if there is no spell and I want to cast magic so smoothly, it would be a dream.
Perhaps high-level magicians can do it by casting low-level magic. But if you want to use all the magic you know as you like a bear, you should just take a shower and go to bed!
The gap in talent cannot be compensated by hard work. The same theory applies to genius, and in the hands of idiots, it is also a piano for animals.
After discussing magic knowledge, Baron Kayo gave a brilliant guide to the country. Hudson occasionally made an insight, and then he was squirted to the point of being squirted.
When it comes to the dispute over ideas, there is never a warm feeling. Just a brief conversation, Hudson knew that there is a fierce dispute over ideas within the magician.
No one can tell who is right and who is wrong. Anyway, it is correct for everyone to stick to their own ideas.
There was no fight because of the conceptual struggle, mainly because there were too many magic concept factions.
Because of different ideas, if you have a fight with this person today, and if you change your partner tomorrow, there will be more people who have quarreled, and I will gradually lose my memory.
Almost every time a saint mage is born, a new genre will be produced, and never has the same.
The following magistrates, great magistrates, basically have their own magical ideas, and no one can convince anyone.
Even if the master and apprentice involve the concept of magic, they will not give in to each other.
The way is different, and they do not plan for each other. After each parting ways, a new magic concept was born.
Anyway, before magicians form their own ideas, they all listen to their teachers. Once they develop their own ideas, there is nothing to say - to set up their own businesses.
No one thinks it’s wrong. Since the birth of magic, everyone has been having such a good time!
If it weren't for the internal dispersion and the inability to effectively integrate, it wouldn't have been suppressed so badly by the Holy See hundreds of years ago.
It is also because of the dispersion that the magicians have received support from various countries in the mainland. How could the ruler not like the senior thugs who cannot threaten their own core interests?
It took a whole morning to talk about it, and even lunch was served by the servants, which was wiped out during the discussion.
"Baron Kayo, we have been discussing for so long, and it is all about theory. To identify whether it is correct, it depends on the casting effect.
Otherwise, we will change places and use our magic according to our respective ideas to see how the specific effect is?"
Hudson pretended to be calm and composed.
It’s great to be able to learn magic knowledge, but it’s boring to be criticized.
Even if it is a discussion in depth, it has to be with the beautiful mage lady! What is there to talk about with the same mage man?
"I heard that there is a swamp in Baron Hudson's territory. I happened to learn a reinforcement technique recently. Why not try the effect?"
After hearing Baron Kayo's words, Hudson secretly scolded himself for being stupid, and actually believed that the other party was here to discuss magic.
But now he cannot refuse. The rejection that he wants to cover up will only arouse deeper suspicion from the Dalton family.
"No problem!"
Hudson replied without hesitation.
If you can't cover it up, just give it a visit to the other party openly. Anyway, the development progress of the swamp is hard to describe.
The first open channel drainage was declared a failure in less than a month. The surrounding terrain was higher than the swamp, and after several ponds dug were filled with water, they had to give up.
The results are not in vain. At least the pond water can raise fish. If you really encounter drought, you will have a few more water sources reserves.
The bamboo and wood fences are not very smooth. The silt in the swamp is too deep. After excavating to a certain depth, landslides will occur on both sides, and great efforts must be made to support it.
Just took Baron Kayo to see how difficult it was to develop the swamp to dispel the Dalton family's doubts.
"Master, something is not good! Lizard beasts appeared in the swamp, and several slaves were accidentally dragged into the mud by them."
