"Does she remember?"
Murphy picked up a gold bar, weighed it, and then put it back.
Before going to the canyon, Murphy had reached an agreement with Mrs. Elizabeth. As long as he can help Mrs. Elizabeth recover the territory, about 800 square kilometers of land to the west of Mrs. Elizabeth''s territory will belong to him.
However, the agreement was finally annulled by the noble Council.
Because only the plain area within the canyon was recovered, Lady Elizabeth''s territory was only half recovered, less than 2000 square kilometers.
So after the end of the first World War, Murphy never mentioned the reward. Because in this matter, both of them suffered a dark loss.
But he did not think that Mrs. Elizabeth still clearly remembered it.
Obviously, the lock armour and the gold are her compensation.
………………
Leaving the lock a behind, Murphy quietly calls the waiting servants outside and orders them to move the gold in the box to the vault. These gold bars are not light in weight. If they are converted into silver coins, it is conservatively estimated that the value should exceed 60000 silver coins, which is already a considerable wealth! If it''s used to buy equipment, it''s enough to arm an army of nearly 2000 people.
"I look down on this woman!" Murphy couldn''t help exclaiming that what happened today made him have a clearer understanding of Lady Elizabeth''s character. The most taboo of the superior is to eat your words and be fat. As the old saying goes, "do what you say." this is one of the fundamental principles of a gentleman. If the superior fails to keep his word, he will lose his prestige.
You are not joking, that''s all.
Murphy could not help thinking at the moment, regardless of Lady Elizabeth''s scheming and means, only in terms of her courage. If she is a man, I''m afraid she is also a hero!
Since the first battle of the canyon was calculated by the aristocratic Council, the cooperation between Murphy and Mrs. Elizabeth has been closer.
It''s no surprise that Mrs. Elizabeth can bring out so much gold.
After all, the wealth accumulated by the family for hundreds of years can not be destroyed just by the attack of jackals. Moreover, Murphy also knows that there is a large-scale gold mine in Lady Elizabeth''s territory. It can be said that the most prosperous land in the north of the southern plain is in the hands of Lady Elizabeth. After all, the title of purple thorn flower is not given in vain.
This woman has an amazing talent in finance!
Otherwise, she would not be able to support an army of nearly 6000 people on a piece of land of 3600 square kilometers, including heavy Armored Cavalry, eagle flag and silver shield infantry, etc! We should know that the system of indigenous people is not as cohesive as that of Athens city. These indigenous people do not have much sense of honor of citizens. If they want to work hard, they can only give enough wealth!
It''s just a pity that in military affairs, this woman''s talent is equal to no talent.
Since the two sides reached an alliance, the military training in Lady Elizabeth''s territory has been arranged by Murphy.
In other words, he selected qualified instructors from Athens and sent them to Lady Elizabeth''s territory to help her train the army. At present, it is not only Lady Elizabeth''s territory, but also members of the aristocratic parliament have repeatedly asked Murphy for military training talents. In this more primitive era, it is obvious that the dense gun array is more suitable for dealing with the strong enemies.
It must also be mentioned that Murphy has a very good reputation behind the southern plains!
It can be said that at present, in addition to the special existence of Lord Rothschild and the so-called "my king", only Murphy''s reputation can reach the hearts of the people, and even slightly higher than others!
Of course, there are other twists and turns.
This Lord from the Greeks, regardless of his age, identity, or he has been creating brilliant achievements, are enough to attract attention!
If that''s all, it''s not enough.
At most, people put it down after one or two compliments, because too much brilliance means distance.
But the problem is, behind the glory and brilliance, some of Murphy''s love affairs also spread in every corner of the southern plains. Although these so-called love affairs do not exist at all, people are always willing to daydream about them. It can be said that whether Murphy wants to or not, some charming gossip even goes beyond Lady Elizabeth''s expectation and spreads rapidly among human beings.
Even in the ears of half elves and dwarfs, his name was mentioned many times.
A wise and powerful Lord, a city built in only half a year.
The well disciplined Greeks, the mighty Spartans.
Plus a brave and courageous Lord who has fought many times in the first line to inspire soldiers and give them courage!
All of these are like legendary heroes!
Both in domestic and military affairs, they have amazing talents.
Behind all this, the ambiguous relationship between the young Lord and the Marquis Elizabeth cast a layer of blurred aura. When glory and gossip are added, Murphy becomes the focus of discussion. As the prophecy says, all people believe that human beings will be brilliant. But people are still guessing whether the hero who leads mankind is the Lord who has proved his ability and extraordinary military ability, or the king who holds the oath of victory sword?
Now, however, this is not the topic that people are most interested in.
Because the businessmen who came back from Athens brought a more amazing and imaginative news.
That is that the young but talented Lord of Athens has captured a mermaid!
It is said that for the sake of the mermaid, the young Lord intends to build Athens into the most beautiful city in the world! Now there are beautiful flowers and trees planted on both sides of the road, and before and after each street, you can see the fountain with gorgeous relief!
What can be more desirable than a thrilling love story?
Among the rumors, Murphy has become the best lover in the eyes of a lady!
But at the same time of exclamation, people are also curious about how the young Lord can have some wonderful things with the mermaid?
The process of this is very imaginative.
Even a chaste lady, when she thought of it, could not help but face red heart, bone crisp legs soft.
Whether Murphy wants to or not, his name and deeds are spreading at an amazing speed! In just a few months, even the half elves who live by the sea know this man and are willing to listen to his story!
………………
And behind all this.
The truth is that while Mrs. Elizabeth is secretly promoting the expansion of Murphy''s glorious image, another dark hand is also quietly smearing some stains on Murphy''s body.
What both sides didn''t expect is that the ultimate direction of rumors is far beyond everyone''s estimation!
………………
----------------------------------------
As the old saying goes: reciprocity.
Human relations are sometimes that simple.
Murphy is not short-sighted and easy to be deceived by small profits. What''s the use of being greedy? If you want to be greedy, you will be greedy!
A person who only knows how to occupy a few places and takes advantage of a small amount of money and thinks that he has gained great benefits.
He Nai?
Accept its heart, for my use!
If you want to achieve great things, what are the gains and losses?
………………
——Who is not self-improvement and self-confidence?
**********************************************************************************************
From the moment she received Lady Elizabeth''s gift, Murphy was thinking about how to return it.
Since both sides have been calculated by the aristocratic Council.
Then the previously agreed distribution of interests can not be established at all, because both sides have suffered considerable losses.
The territory has just been regained. It''s time for everything to be prosperous.
Even with her family''s accumulated wealth, Mrs. Elizabeth is not well off at the moment. She has to support thousands of troops and accept the refugees who have fled back. I''m afraid this half box of gold is the only wealth she can squeeze out. She is a woman with such courage to make up for the reward promised before. Can a man of her own be greedy for this little profit?
At present, there is a shortage of food in the territory. I''m afraid there will be little food to give back to Mrs. Elizabeth before the trade relationship with the half elves is reached.
If you want to return the gift, it must be of equal value.
Then we have to think of something else.
It''s a relatively peaceful time now, and things like weapons and equipment may not be available to her, and maintenance is also a big trouble. The canyon pass has established a defense line. If the orcs want to go deep, they must break through the pass. For the time being, Murphy and Lady Elizabeth''s territory are very safe.
Murphy walked around the room with her arms around her chest.
All of a sudden!
His eyes fell on the porcelain plate left on the table.
Lady Elizabeth has great talent in interpersonal communication and business management! And she has a high reputation among the nobility, and has a very broad circle of communication!
