Chapter 366 Strong Backing

The income of the Marquis Territory is actually not large. The annual income from the large iron mine alone is very large, and this does not include local taxes and so on.

Although you earn more, you also spend more.

In addition to raising five knights and paying remuneration to numerous officials and servants in various places, Rulans himself also needs to spend a large amount of gold coins every year to buy magic potions to relieve pain from the Silva Magic Merchant.

This alone requires an investment of more than 100,000 gold coins every year.

The 100,000 gold coins mentioned by Luo Ning now are exactly the money Rulans is going to pay Miroslav to buy next year's medicine.

But he didn't expect that the Soul-Eating Surge would be completely cured by Elrond, and this huge expense was completely saved.

"One hundred thousand gold coins is easy to talk about!"

Rulans waved his hand, "I will ask Most to carry those boxes of gold coins to your room tonight."

He didn't hesitate for a moment.

To him, these 100,000 gold coins were nothing compared to recovering health and no longer suffering.

What's more, this is not only thanking the grandson, but also helping the grandson.

If he hadn't considered buying potions before, his previous support wouldn't have been so fussy.

Luo Ning thanked the grandpa, and the two had a detailed conversation about the Surge of Shaman Souls.

Luo Ning wanted to know who cast this "poison".

But this matter was quite unexpected, and Lulans couldn't figure out where the other party got the black scroll.

He guessed that maybe just like when he picked up the contract scroll, the other party's black scroll was also obtained by chance.

As they chatted, the topic gradually returned to the two griffins in Shore City.

Luo Ning didn't hide it. After all, now that Lu Lansi has recovered, the old Marquis needs to know the geographical situation around Wushan Territory.

So he directly told Ramsay about his assassination in the castle and his counterattack.

"etc!"

Rulans quickly raised his hand to stop Ronin, "You mean, you killed Ramsey? He is a Meteor Knight, and you are also a Meteor Knight?"

The old man's eyes widened, "Also, your follower, Redal, is also a Meteor Knight?"

Luo Ning nodded slightly, "Yes, to be precise, I am not only a Meteor Knight, but also a Great Mage."

Facing Lulans, there was no need to hide anything.

And as Luo Ning becomes stronger and stronger, the need to deliberately hide his strength becomes less and less.

hiss!

Lulans took a deep breath after figuring out Luo Ning's strength. Both professions were at level seven. How could this be done?

In a daze, he remembered that the last time he asked about this matter, Luo Ning said, "Just treat it as if there is a divine weapon hidden in my body."

Lulans thought that Luo Ning didn't want to say it before, but now it seems that he really has a divine weapon.

He looked at Elrond, who was sitting quietly beside him with short gray hair. This was an eighth-level mage!

It is simply appalling that a county has three such powerful men.

"I have never heard of anyone who has such great strength at your age. If Jesus knew that Ramsey died because of his stupidity, he would probably be so angry that he vomited blood on the spot, right?"

Luo Ning didn't know whether he would vomit blood or not, but given the other person's character, he would definitely be angry.

Rulans frowned slightly, "Based on what I know about Jesus, he won't pretend to know anything about this matter. Even if he doesn't start a war with you, he will contact you privately to see if it is possible to save him through ransom." Returning to Ramsey can also test whether Ramsey is dead."

He paused and continued: "There is no reaction at all, which is somewhat inconsistent with Jesus' style."

Luo Ning nodded slightly, he also felt something was wrong.

Regardless of the fact that Ramsey is the Meteor Knight, the other party is the son-in-law of Jesus. As the Lord of Moonlight Valley, Jesus should intervene in both emotional and rational matters, as well as in public and private matters.

"How are you going to deal with Moonlight Valley?" Lulans suddenly asked.

Luo Ning pondered for a while, "I have no plans to deal with Moonlight Valley for the time being."

He spread his hands: "After all, the territory needs to develop and cannot withstand large-scale mobilization and consumption. In addition, although Redal leads the fifth knights of Wushanbao, Jesus has four knights under his command, so it is not Advantage. What's more, His Majesty Bruno will probably intervene in the attack on Moonlight Valley on the grounds of being assassinated."

Luo Ning killed someone and robbed a griffin. Considering the royal family's reputation, it is estimated that the big deal will be reduced to a trivial matter.

"There is no problem using the assassination as an excuse to send troops. Even if the king comes forward, we don't have to worry that he will favor Jesus."

The king wished that the people below could fight and make trouble, which would be better than working alone.

Rulans said: "But you are right, Wushan Castle and your Wubei Territory's top combat power is sufficient, but the number of knights under your command is small."

Although Wushan Fort has five troops, they cannot all be deployed to deal with Moonlight Valley. At least half must be left for defense.

As for high-level combat power, to be honest, a Silver Moon Knight, a Magister, plus Ronin, Redal, and Melonica.

If such a lineup is exposed to the outside world, it will inevitably attract the fear of other forces.

Not to mention the Principality of Vera and Screaming Island, the king might be a little wary at that time.

Lulans was a man who had suffered a lot. His eldest son was targeted because he was too good.

Now he doesn't want Ronin to make the same mistake again.

When he thought of the past, hatred surged in the old man's eyes.

"Over the years, Moonlight Valley, Vera Principality and Screaming Island have always regarded Wushan Territory as a prey, and they are always making small moves to take the opportunity to eat a bite. It's a pity that they didn't eat it when I was sick, and now they have no chance."

"What are you going to do?" Ronin asked.

"The first step is to wait for me to fully recover, or even break through to the Silver Moon level, and then announce the recovery to the outside world."

Lulansi decided to disguise it first to avoid causing waves.

"The second step is to form more knight groups."

In previous years, huge expenses limited the number of knight groups in the Marquis Territory.

Now that Lulansi doesn't have to spend more than 100,000 gold coins, this money can be invested in the team.

At least three more groups can be formed.

By then, Wushan Castle will have eight knight groups.

In fact, this number is not enough for him to fight on two fronts, but if Wubei Territory develops and unites Ronin and other nobles, Wushan Territory's strength will be on a higher level.

Thinking of this, Lulansi couldn't help but smile happily.

Not only did he recover his fighting power, but he also had a chance to avenge his previous shame. Today was really full of surprises.

"Develop first, then find a chance to take revenge on them. This is also the route I want to take."

Luo Ning smiled and said, "I didn't expect you to think the same as me."

"Haha, after all, they are grandfather and grandson."

Lu Lan Si was more and more satisfied with Luo Ning. "I am very relieved to hand over Wushan Territory to you in the future."

Luo Ning shook his head, "With your strength, it is no problem to live another seventy or eighty years. By then, I am afraid I will be Jiaoyang."

After seventy or eighty years, Jiaoyang is just an overly conservative estimate. Maybe he can become a legend?

Lu Lan Si stared at Luo Ning in a daze.

Jiaoyang Knight, Great Mage, this is an existence that can stir up the situation on the continent.

If one day in the future, his grandson really becomes a strong man of this level, let alone whether he will become a king, but at least it should be no problem to get a duke, right?

At this moment, he seemed to understand why the other party was not very interested in the position of Marquis.

It turned out that he was not interested in this.

Lu Lans couldn't help but give a thumbs up: "You are the pride of the Wushan family, kid, no matter what decision you make in the future, I will always be your staunch supporter!" (End of this chapter)
