Chapter 102 103. Questions and Answers

Luo Ning had just settled down and was about to rest for a while and wait for the dinner time, but he didn't expect that the old housekeeper sent someone to bring him news of Lu Lansi's summons. ☜♦

The main reason he came to Wushanpu this time was to see Lu Lansi, so he went to the back courtyard without stopping.

"Mr. Most, long time no see."

At the entrance of the back courtyard, Luo Ning saw the old housekeeper standing there as if waiting for his arrival, so he went up to say hello warmly.

"Long time no see, Master Luo Ning. You seem to have grown a bit taller and more mature than before you left last time!"

He praised with a smile, "My master is very appreciative of your conquest of the savage tribe!"

Luo Ning's heart moved. After contacting Hook from the Silva Magic Energy Chamber of Commerce that day, he knew that the news of conquering the savage tribe would spread, but he did not expect that it would reach Wushan Castle so quickly.

"The savage tribe has experienced years of devastation and has long lost the ability to resist directly. I just happened to find the exact location of their camp."

Luo Ning tried his best to reduce the difficulty of this matter: "I believe that any noble with two or three knights can conquer them."

"You are too modest."

Most made an inviting gesture, "The master is at the back of the mountain, I will take you there."

Back mountain?

Luo Ning looked surprised.

The back hill of Wushan Fort is not small, and the environment is indeed quiet, but few people usually go there, and even Wiggins will not set foot there easily.

Because Rulans's mount, the fifth-level monster, the Thunder Wind Chaser, lives in the back mountain.

Although it is a contracted monster, it will not easily attack people in the castle, but it will show hostility to people who set foot on its territory when it is in a bad mood, making people feel scared.

Luo Ning did not expect that Lulans would arrange the place to summon him in the back mountain.

"Then please lead the way."

The two of them walked one behind the other and followed the bluestone road into the back mountain.

Even though his predecessor had lived here for more than ten years, he didn't come to the back mountain often. Luo Ning looked at it as he walked, as if he was walking in a forest park.

There is a luxurious house built halfway up the back mountain. This is where the Thunder Wind Chaser lives.

Luo Ning approached and observed the room carefully. There were reliefs, sparkling agates, gems, and magic crystal lamps hanging on it.

The house he lives in in Shanlin Town can't even compare to Warcraft's house.

"You came."

Rulans sat on the bench outside the house, leaning on his crutches and facing the bottom of the mountain without turning his head.

Most bowed slightly, then turned around and walked down the mountain.

Luo Ning walked over quickly, bowed and said, "Grandpa, long time no see."

Lulans nodded slightly and looked at Luo Ning up and down, "Compared to last time, you have grown a lot taller and matured a lot."

"Most just said the same thing about me."

Luo Ning smiled and said: "It seems that I have indeed changed a bit."

It's not a little bit, but it's so big that Rulans almost couldn't recognize it.

It’s not so much about appearance, but how he talks and behaves.

In the past, Luo Ning was still like a child at the age of seventeen. He only obeyed his discipline verbally in person, and then turned around and completely forgot about it, which was very helpless.

He didn't know if it was a psychological effect, but he just felt that Luo Ning looked reassuring now.

"I heard that you conquered three savage tribes."

Rulans pointed to the bench opposite and motioned for Ronin to sit down, "Come, tell me about your process of conquering them."

Naturally, Luo Ning didn't mind telling the story, as it would help him get closer to the old Marquis.

But in telling it, he concealed something.

First of all, things like sericulture and ceramics cannot be mentioned. After all, those two pieces of land have not really become his property.

Secondly, I have only vaguely mentioned my own strength. After all, in just two months, I went from an ordinary person to a dual-professional high-level transcendent. It is too incredible to say it.

Luo Ning had no choice but to put as much credit as possible on McCann, saying that McCann was a high-level knight and had very strong fighting ability.

As for Commander Redal, he was directly hidden by Luo Ning and did not say anything.

"McCann?"

Rulans was surprised, "Is he the knight who had contact with Wiggins when you came back with the betrayer that day? I thought he was just a junior knight."

"McCann's qualifications are very good, but he lacks opportunities to perform."

Luo Ning explained, "We broke through shortly after arriving in Shanlin Town."

Lulans nodded silently, "Although you didn't contribute much in the battle, it can be seen that you have good insights in command. Otherwise, you would not have conquered three tribes in less than a month."

Command requires the ability to obtain intelligence, analyze intelligence, and arrange combat tasks. From these three points, Luo Ning is much better than Wiggins.

Lu Lansi secretly sighed. If he had known that his grandson had the ability to command, he should have sent him to the Knights to train with him instead of studying at Wushan Extraordinary Academy.

"Grandpa praised me so much."

new

Luo Ning shook his head, "Actually, the defense capabilities of the savage tribe are too weak. They don't even have a sentry tower, so they are simply vulnerable."

"Haha, you are much more humble than before."

After the laughter, there was a brief silence between the grandfather and grandson. They had not sat down and communicated like this for a long time.

"What are you going to do about those three tribes?"

Here we are, finally bringing the topic to the territory.

Luo Ning was just thinking about how to bring up this topic, but he didn't expect Lulans to take the initiative to mention it.

He thought for a while and decided to be bold.

"Grandpa, a total of 1,051 people from these three savage tribes have been accepted by me. The extraordinary ones who disobeyed have been killed by me. The remaining extraordinary people have chosen to be loyal to me, and the others have worked for me as slaves."

Lu Lansi's eyes flashed. Luo Ning said this lightly, but he heard the latter's attitude towards the enemy. At least he did not kill everyone willfully. He knew how to absorb and strengthen, which was sometimes a good thing.

"Although I can transfer all these prisoners to live in Shanlin Town, the Savage Tribe has cultivated a lot of fields over the years, and I don't want to give up."

Ronin paused, looked directly at Lulans, and stated his purpose: "So I hope, grandpa, that you can give me the land where these three tribes are located and include it within the territory of Shanlin Town."

He added: "By the way, I also discovered a large tribe that threatens Shanlin Town. It's called the 'Black Collar Tribe'. After I conquer it, I hope to include it in my territory."

From the beginning of this conversation, Luo Ning obtained a lot of information.

First, the location of the conversation, then the process of the other party asking him how he conquered the savage tribe, and his final comments, etc. All of this shows that Luo Ning's previous conjecture is likely to be correct——

He still has a certain status in Rulans' heart.

That's why Luo Ning spoke out his purpose like a lion. Even if the other party doesn't allow him, it doesn't matter.

Anyway, there were only two people on this mountain, he and Lulans, so no one would spread the word about his ambition.

Rulans looked at his grandson seriously, and the smile on his lips became more and more obvious.

"Nobles love to expand their territory. I didn't expect that you would get into this hobby so quickly after becoming Baron of Hillwood Town for less than three months."

He shook his head when he said this, "But in order to allocate these territories to you, conquering the savage tribe alone is not enough."

He said: "In the war in August, we recaptured seven castles and forced back the Black Gold Brotherhood. However, due to your father's failure in command and the mistakes you made, five of the castles were used as bargaining chips to compensate For the Hyde family, the other party will appoint the lord, and the remaining two will be given to the knights who are loyal to our family."

Luo Ning's heart sank. He didn't expect that the Hyde family took away five castles in that incident, causing great losses.

"There are many knights with greater military exploits than you, but they did not get fiefs."

Lulans explained seriously, "When I asked you to be the baron of Shanlin Town, I took into consideration that the place was far away, remote, had little development value, and was full of dangers. That's why no one raised any objections. If I expand the territory for you again, , It’s hard to explain to the outside world.”

Although the big nobles are powerful, they do not do everything according to their temper. Otherwise, it would not be good for the knights and small nobles who are loyal to them to have opinions, not to mention that the current situation of Wushan Castle is not very good.

Luo Ning understands this truth.

But he also had second-hand preparations, "So grandpa, I wonder if I can temporarily run these four savage tribes for you?"

If you can't include it, then it's not a bad idea to run it as an agent.

"Can!"

Lulans laughed, and that was his original intention, "As an operator, you need to pay a certain number of gold coins to Wushanbao every year."

"ah?"

Luo Ning looked bitter, "You know, I am very poor, and I can hardly afford to support the extraordinary people in my territory!"

"Hahaha~"

Lulans smiled and shook his head, "Don't lie to me. You can make so many spell scrolls in a month and earn hundreds of gold coins by selling them. Paying a little operating fee is nothing to you."

He raised a finger and said, "10 gold coins per tribe, 30 gold coins per year. Grandpa, I didn't bully you, did I?"

Luo Ning was relieved when he heard this. He thought the other party would ask for a lot, but at first glance, this price was a genuine friendship price.

"No, grandpa, it's 40 gold coins!"

He emphasized: "There is also a black-collar tribe, and I plan to capture it around spring plowing next year!"

Lulans shook his head, "I'm afraid you have no chance."

Um?

The smile on Luo Ning's face disappeared, and he looked suspicious: "Why do you say that?"

"Baron Leisen of the Thain Territory asked his son Torbradon to bring a letter, saying that the Thain Territory had finally defeated the enemy after a fierce battle a month ago, with the loss of hundreds of soldiers and several professional knights. The most powerful black-collared savage tribe in Wubei Woodland has been captured."

Lulans took out the parchment from his arms, threw it lightly and fell into Luo Ning's hand.

"Similar to you, Baron Leisen also wants to add the black-collar tribe to his territory."
