The Emerald Tower

Chapter 49 The Baron's Surprise (Part 2)

"Ok!"

Baron Tire looked at the cautious young man in front of him. Some of the characteristics of the other party were obviously Tyrians - the kind of hunters that are unique to hunters. appearance; even if the other party is very thin, these features are very obvious; in addition, the local accent, it shows that this is a local person, not the person from the little nobleman from the emerald capital.

This made Baron Till and his advisor look at each other, and both nodded in satisfaction.

Obviously, this is a nobleman who knows the rules and has no malice.

In fact, when Baron Tire learned that there might be a nobleman from the Emerald City in his knight order, he kept thinking about it from the bottom of his heart.

After all, as the lord of the Territory of Tyre, Baron Tire is very clear about what kind of place the nobles in the emerald capital are like in his own territory.

It is not too much to say that the mountains and rivers are poor.

And no nobleman would come here, even if it was for his own good future, he would not choose him for gold plating-the Vauban city of the Marquis of Vauban is obviously more suitable.

Even, Baron Tire met young nobles from the Emerald City there more than once.

The appearance is full of etiquette, but the arrogance in the bones is still very fresh in the memory of the Baron Tyre; therefore, if possible, he absolutely does not want to see such a young nobleman appearing in his territory, especially Is entered into his local Knights.

Then, when his staff, his very trusted advisor, told him another possibility, the Baron Tyre's mood became even worse.

After all, a young aristocrat who has caused trouble and needs to seek refuge in his backcountry is obviously even more unbearable.

Therefore, after receiving the request for help from the Knights, Baron Till sent his disliked relative who had no blood relationship first.

This is nothing more than to test that little nobleman.

However, unexpectedly, the little noble actually hanged the two followers of his disliked guy to death.

Of course, what surprised him even more was that the other party actually killed the murderer who killed his original head of the Knights and a group of elites!

Immediately, the Baron Tire had a better impression of this little nobleman from the Emerald City—perhaps, the other party was a little arrogant, but he still had certain abilities.

Then, when the gold foil gift card was delivered, looking at the colorful handwriting and modest words on it, Baron Till's impression of Dean became better again—young people are very impulsive, but they are capable. , And if you know how to correct your mistakes, you still have a bright future.

In the end, when Ike, a native of Tire, appeared as the representative of the opponent, Baron Tire couldn't help being very satisfied—the other party was undoubtedly telling him that he had no bad thoughts and would not use his own people as his representative. The Elevated Knights; Baron Till instantly became interested in such a young and sensible nobleman.

Baron Till looked at his staff again, and when he saw that the other party nodded slightly, he immediately added kindly to Ike who was still bowing: "Get up, Captain Ike!"

"Yes, Lord Baron!"

After straightening his body, the emaciated militia captain took out from his bosom the gift that he had kept close to him—since it was a gift card, without stopping.

If there is no gift, what kind of gift card is it?

"Master Baron, this is a gift from Captain Dean!"

The emaciated militia captain bent down again, and raised the palm-sized brocade box with both hands.

"this is……"

After seeing the brocade box, Baron Tyre and Ikos were stunned—although the gift letter before was enough to show that the young man from the Emerald City was of extraordinary background, at least very wealthy, but seeing this brocade After the box, the two were still taken aback.

There was nothing unusual about the box itself, but the silk on the box was extremely conspicuous.

Although it was cut several times and used as a decoration on the box, both Baron Tyre and Ikos could tell that it was a piece of high-quality silk.

"What a pity!"

Baron Tire couldn't help sighing in his heart - you know, since he had a 'silk' blanket, he wanted to have another one, but at that price, it was really not his choice for him who was getting more and more financially shy. Can afford it; for this reason, Baron Tire has always regretted it; and now after seeing this brocade box, he naturally thought that if these silks were given to him, he would definitely have a symmetrical blanket .

However, after such an idea just turned around in his mind, Baron Tire became more and more looking forward to it.

After all, the gift box is all there is to it, so what would the gift be?

Under the impatient gesture of Baron Till, Ikos walked forward quickly, took the gift box from Ike, felt the friction between his fingers and the silk outside the gift box, and the smooth touch made him feel involuntarily. Thinking of a girl's skin—as expected of silk!

With such an exclamation, Ikos immediately handed it over to Baron Tyre.

Snapped!

Almost as soon as he got the gift box in his hand, Baron Till opened it, and suddenly, a soft luster emanated from the gift box - a round, plump grain, bigger than an adult's thumb The pearls are placed in the gift box, set off by a layer of black flannel.

"what!"

Such a soft exclamation came out of Baron Tire's mouth uncontrollably, causing the chief guard who had been guarding the door to break in immediately.

"My lord, what's the matter?!"

The head of the guard had already pulled out his long sword, looked around, and finally landed on Ike, and with that murderous look, it was obvious that as long as Baron Tyre said a word, our thin militia captain would have to fall to the ground.

"Cough, cough...it's nothing, I just suddenly thought of something I missed!"

Baron Till waved his hand at his head of the guard with a little embarrassment, and then looked softly at Ike, who was Dean's representative.

"Your Excellency Dean Ken, did you say anything else?"

Baron Till asked.

"My lord, ask my lord baron, when can I visit my lord baron!"

Feeling the harmonious voice of Baron Tire, although the thin and thin militia captain was nervous, he also understood that this was the gift from his regiment leader, and he became more courageous at the moment, telling his commander's orders one by one out.

"Of course, anytime..."

"Cough, cough!"

Baron Tire, who was holding the gift box tightly, said immediately, but before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by a staff member on the side, and the staff immediately replaced Baron Tire and added: "Tonight! Tonight, In the baron's mansion, the baron invited His Excellency Dean Ken to come to the banquet!"

"Come here and get the invitation with me!"

Afterwards, Baron Till's staff took our emaciated militia captain and left the room.

And about twenty minutes later, the staff member returned to this room——

"My lord, you should be careful with your words and deeds. If you deal with it casually, it will only make that Lord Dean Ken think that you are deliberately being contemptuous!"

Mr. Staff looked at Baron Till who was still holding the gift box and admiring the pearl, and suggested very sincerely.

"Of course, of course, I'm just so excited!"

Baron Till closed the gift box and smiled embarrassingly. Obviously, he also knew his previous recklessness—communication between nobles is definitely not the so-called gentlemen's friendship as light as water, but the real sense of reciprocity. .

To put it simply, Dean gave Baron Till a pearl, so Baron Till had to return a gift of comparable value.

Of course, before that, a banquet is needed to entertain each other.

If Dean is satisfied, he will invite Baron Tyre to a banquet at his home next time, and then the two parties will exchange gifts again.

And this kind of procedure needs three or four consecutive times before both parties can visit each other empty-handed. However, some small gifts are unavoidable during certain festivals.

Therefore, ordinary families simply cannot afford this kind of aristocratic way of communication. Even some aristocratic families need considerable financial support. If they cannot obtain such support, they will soon fade out of this upper-class circle. , and eventually, was forgotten.

As for going forward with a cheeky face?

That would just be a real laughing stock and bring shame on the whole family.

Of course, Baron Till didn't want to shame the whole family, but when he looked at the pearl, he became worried; after all, according to his evaluation, this pearl was worth at least fifty Kimptons. Including the gift box, the total value reached 60 Kimptons.

In other words, he had to give away sixty equivalent Kimptons.

Immediately, Baron Till, who was very tight financially, had a headache.

"My lord, don't forget, Your Excellency Dean Ken also wiped out a group of robbers, you should pay the reward!"

And before Baron Till could think about which collection in the family's treasure house to take out, the words of the staff beside him immediately made the baron's head ache even more.

"Ikos, this is really bad news. If there is any bad news, you might as well say it all at once!"

Baron Till looked at his staff with a wry smile.

"You still need to prepare a banquet—although the number of people you invite can be limited, food and drinks are inevitable!"

The staff member said again, and immediately, Baron Till let out a painful moan while leaning back in his chair.
