Chapter 320 'What I Ask' IV
Night, Horn Town.
Dean and Lainie sat opposite each other, and the silver candlesticks were placed on the long table in front of them, illuminating the white tablecloth brightly, while the plates of exquisite dishes were served by the second time owner of the Marquess of York. The cook was cooking, and then Lauder, who had changed into a housekeeper's uniform, commanded and brought it up.
"My lord, mistress, this is the main course for tonight: roasted chicken with pine nuts; roasted with pine nuts, the chicken is rubbed with honey, without any greasy feeling, and the outer skin is crispy, and the inner is juicy and tender..."
Lauder, who was acting as the butler temporarily, dutifully introduced the main dishes on the table.
Then, after the soup bowl was served, the whole person quickly disappeared beside the dining table, leaving the entire restaurant space to Dean and Leni.
Not much eager dialogue.
The two just looked at each other, and then whispered everything after they left—in fact, from yesterday to now, this is the real private conversation between Dean and Leni.
Although Leni couldn't wait to ask Lauder a lot about Dean, most of Lauder who joined on the way was hearsay, and there was no detailed explanation from Dean himself.
Starting from joining the Knights of Féchallen, taking charge of the Knights of Féchallen, participating in the auction of the Marquis of Vauban, etc., and then departing to the south.
Dean described it in great detail.
Leni was half leaning on Dean's shoulder, her hands were tightly grasping Dean's skirt, and it was suddenly locked following the danger in Dean's words, and her face was also nervous, and when Dean When it comes to funny things. Then it turned into fingers gently pinching Dean's skirt. A smile appeared on his face.
fine food. Nothing is wasted.
Dean and Lenny's self-report after parting became the last catering for both parties.
And when the last bite of food on the dinner plate was picked up by a silver fork and put into her mouth, Leni realized that she had eaten far more than half of the usual food.
"It's broken! It's broken! I'm going to get fat now!"
Leni let out the panic that anyone would.
"Take a break, and exercise after meals will help digestion!"
Dean stood up and walked gently behind Leni.
Pulling Leni into his arms from behind.
"Bad guy! You promised to say..."
There was a sudden trill, and Leni stopped speaking.
"say what?"
Dean, who was holding Leni's earlobe half in his mouth, asked with a smile.
"You, you...um!"
Leni, who wanted to say something, could only make a thick nasal sound in the end, and then, Dean suddenly let go of Leni. Dean pointed to the outside, and then, looking at Leni with regret, said: "someone is coming!"
"bad guy!"
Lenny hammered Dean's arm lightly, and then. He ran straight upstairs.
It is both shy and means to leave space for Dean.
A girl from a noble family. Leni has an understanding far beyond that of ordinary girls in certain things.
At least, she knew very well what she should do when her husband wanted to meet with guests—even if she couldn't help him share his worries, she wouldn't pester her husband and make him even more upset.
"Laud, let Takashi come in!"
Seeing Leni's back disappearing on the second floor, Dean sat at the dining table and said so.
"Yes, my lord!"
Lauder, who had been blocking others, bowed and let them go.
Long Lang walked straight into the hall.
Because Dean became the lord of Horn Town, the relationship between Dean and Long Lang's secret allies has become more secretive, just like at this moment when Long Lang asked to see Dean openly, no one would guess at all, he would only think that Long Lang It's just a confidant that Dean cultivated in Horn Town.
In fact, at this time, Long Lang has already cooperated with Dean's subordinates to manage the four towns including Bugle Town.
Of course, Long Lang rejected the 'title' given by Dean——
‘We are allies, I don’t want to be your subordinate! You are short for no reason! '
This is the reason for Long Lang's refusal, which makes it impossible for Dean to refute.
"Dean, I want those two caravans!"
Long Lang, who walked into the hall, said directly when he saw Dean.
With the relationship of allies and cooperation between the two parties, there is indeed no need for more cover-ups.
"I need secret techniques and secret transmissions. Regarding power, they must be at least advanced! Moreover, they must be original or orphaned!"
Likewise, Dean didn't hide his request.
"One month, give me one month!"
Long Lang turned around in a circle and gave an answer.
"One week, I'll be here for another week, and when I leave, I hope it's all settled!"
Dean shook his head.
"You were buying secret arts and secrets before, and now you have obtained great benefits in exchange for secret arts and secrets... What are you going to do? Don't tell me, you want to be a collector of secrets and secrets !"
Long Lang looked at Dean suspiciously.
Even as a black market businessman, he couldn't understand why Dean did this.
Although the secret arts and secrets are very valuable, the continuous production of Kimpton's shops and caravans is equally valuable, and even surpasses the secrets and secrets to some extent.
After all, the sustainability of the latter is not available in the former.
You know, secret techniques and secret transmissions can be transcribed.
This replicable method is enough to greatly reduce its own value. However, the latter is different in sustainability. As long as there is enough time, the latter can obtain ten times the value of the former.
Therefore, Long Lang was very puzzled.
"What's wrong with being a collector of secret arts and secret arts? You know, when I was a child, I imagined that I had a library of secret arts and secret arts!"
Dean said lightly.
Of course he couldn't tell his allies everything about the Blood Moon War.
"For strength?"
Of course, Long Lang would not believe Dean's secret technique and secret library, so he began to guess.
"Part!"
Dean nodded.
"You are now silver. Nineteen-year-old silver. Anyone will know that you are a genius! Just follow the steps. You will become gold just around the corner. I don't understand why you are so anxious-mystery, secret The traditional practice does not mean that the more you practice, the better, they all require you to spend more energy and time to practice..."
Long Lang's doubts are obvious, and at the same time, Long Lang is also persuading Dean from the perspective of an ally and friend.
Of course, the fundamental reason was that Long Lang did not give up on those two caravans.
"Step by step. Not what I'm after!"
Dean looked at the chattering Long Lang with a smile and shook his head. Dean looked at Long Lang and asked Long Lang in a serious tone: "What are you after?"
"The best wealth in the world!"
Without even thinking about it, Long Lang said like this, and then, Long Lang subconsciously asked: "What about you?"
"Strength, the strength that can control a war!"
Dean replied groaningly.
"With your talent, as long as you continue to grow..."
"The shortest time!"
Dean interrupted Takashi's words. Definitely.
"This is why you can't follow the steps? But this is not the reason why you collect secret techniques and secret transmissions... Well, is the [Mountain Soul Power] thing true?"
Long Lang said. Suddenly thought of something, he suddenly looked at Dean.
Regarding the bet between Dean and the second son of the Marquess of York, because of the Marquess of York, although the result of the bet is very clear because Dean took over Horn Town, Horseshoe Town, Shield Town and Mask Town, the bet. The process of the process is ambiguous, some say that Dean has reached the level of the [Mountain Soul Power] overnight, while others say that the [Mountain Soul Power] has been introduced overnight.
The truth and falsehood become unknown because of the silence of the parties involved.
However, most people prefer the latter.
Even Takaro, Dean's ally, is the same.
However, with Dean's persistence, Long Lang has a different view.
"Well, the [Mountain Soul Power] thing is true, I am very suitable for practicing similar secret techniques and secrets!"
Dean nodded without hesitation.
He cultivated [Mountain Soul Power] overnight to something that can be used as a core force. It's not a secret thing, but because the second son of the Marquis kept it secret, most people didn't know it.
Dean himself, on the other hand, didn't mind other people knowing about such things.
Although such a thing has advantages and disadvantages, judging from the current situation, the advantages outweigh the disadvantages.
After all, it was part of Dean's plan to gain more fame before the Blood Moon War.
Of course, Dean will not blindly promote his talent' omnipotence.
He is quite clear about what kind of troubles he will cause once he really says that, not to mention in Jadeite, Gao Sai and Xiti alone will definitely kill a 'monster' like him in the cradle.
"Similar to [Power of Mountain Soul], is the focus on physical fitness and strength? Is it because of the giant's talent?"
Long Lang asked subconsciously.
"I can't think of anything other than the giant's talent!"
Dean admitted it naturally, and intends to use the "giant talent" as an excuse; after all, after King Xiti awakened the "giant talent", there were rumors similar to "you can learn it as soon as you learn it".
After hearing Dean's words, Long Lang looked at Dean, and instantly became strange, and began to mutter to himself: "King Xiti is second, King Xiti is second..."
"What's wrong?"
asked Dean, shrugging.
"I feel that forming an alliance with you is the best deal I've ever done!"
Long Lang laughed.
Afterwards, Long Lang left, and Dean gave reasons to persuade him. Naturally, he would not persevere. After all, the two sides are allies, a relationship of mutual benefit and mutual benefit, rather than a tough relationship between superiors and subordinates.
What's more, Long Lang saw more 'benefits' in Dean!
For Long Lang, having a man who looks like King Xiti as his ally now is something that would wake him up with a smile on his face.
"Need to further deepen cooperation!"
When he left Dean's residence and returned to his tavern, Long Lang had such a plan in his heart.
