191. Chapter 191 New King’s Teeth

    Petrov licked the lipstick tea and leaned on the soft feudal lord chair for a long release.

    It has been more than two months since I took over Longsong Stronghold, and he has found himself more and more like this hall. The step-by-step structure that allows him to stand from the main seat overlooking the officials and attendants standing below, the feeling of being in the grip makes him satisfied.

    In the first month, there will be some little noble jumping out to openly question themselves, or secretly planning riots and the like – of course, the behind-the-scenes characters who provoke them are from nine to nine families from Elk and Wolf. Petrov followed his father’s advice and sent the no-popular civilians or the underground Mouse to the hanging post. The little noble with the title was imprisoned and the family was expelled from the Western Region after paying the ransom.

    This set of Thunder measures was implemented and the situation quickly subsided. After all, except for the Honeysuckle Family, Knights of other people caught to Border Town, and impossible to rebel against Petrov’s policy. Afterwards, he divided the interests of stronghold to compensate for the loss of the big family at the time of arrest, so that all noble temporarily formed a relatively stable interest group.

    Now, in addition to the 30% of stronghold’s income paid to Border Town, the remaining 70%, 30% for maintaining the city’s operation, 20% to appease the rest of the big noble, Hull territory to get the remaining 20%.

    Today, the portrait hanging behind the feudal lord is replaced by Duke Ryan as Four Prince Roland Wimbledon, and he looks forward to one day hanging on his own portrait of Petrov Hull.

    If you can completely own Longsong Stronghold, your own Earl collar can be connected with stronghold and become a veritable Duke territory. The 50% of the payment and appeasement can also be saved and invested in the trade of stronghold, in exchange for more abundant. Return.

    Of course, the premise is that Roland can successfully climb Throne and become the king of the entire territory of Greycastle.

    “Monseigneur,” a bodyguard walked into the hall of feudal lord and handed a letter, “from border town’s message.” ”

    When he heard the word Border Town, Petrov immediately sat up.

    He took the envelope and flattened the thin papyrus, which can be seen from the poorly qualified paper. The letter came from the eyeliner he placed in the serf team.

    The result of the battle more than two months ago was incredible. Petrov did not personally go, but heard a bizarre story from his father. In order to understand the reasons for Duke’s failure, he arranged a lot of confidants in the hands of the small town, they disguised as craftsmen, herders or serfs, and sent the information they saw back to stronghold.

    He believes that other families will certainly do the same.

    But so far, apart from the fact that the two men who pretend to be serfs are still sending new information every month, the craftsmen and herders have no news, as if they have disappeared.

    In the end, did they betray themselves or were they discovered by the prince?

    He shook his head and focused on the secret letter.

    The content of the letter was written by charcoal, and the text was twisted and twisted. In some places, there were traces of water immersion. It seemed to be sneaked down during work.

    The first paragraph says that an unidentified tower is being built on the shore of Scarlet Water River. A huge iron can is stacked on top of the tower, and three are currently erected, each of which is close to the stronghold wall. The blacksmiths seem to have finished the production of the tower in the town, and when it was transported to the river, it was a whole. Then there will be First Army warriors standing up around the tower, and by the next day, it will stand up magically.

    ConstructionThis is the word again. Petrov thinks that the last secret letter is also like this. If you look at the information, you feel that the prince is building a small town. The last time was the road repairing bridge. This time it was a repair tower. Is it necessary for His Royal Highness to take all the gold royals that have been searched from the stronghold castle for a sigh of relief? And the tower is still unclear…To know that the spies in the hidden serfs are not true serfs, but a well-informed personal guard. If it is a sentry tower or an arrow tower, he will be able to see it at a glance.

    Probably the tower has not been completely completed, it is not easy to judge, Petrov shook his head, perhaps waiting until next month there will be more detailed information.

    He moved his eyes to the next paragraph.

    The letter stated that a large merchant fleet had left for a week after staying at the small town dock, and the attribution was unknown. A large pile of ore ingot and saltpeter were unloaded from the boat during the stay.

    Buying saltpeter is easy to understand. It will become very hot in the summer until the second month. The castle needs a lot of saltpeter to cool down. It can also be used to refrigerate drinks and juices. As a royal noble, it is definitely not willing to let yourself sweat all day long. It is as embarrassing as the farmer in farmland.

    But buying ore ingot made Petrov feel a bit surprised. Border Town was the origin of the ore. Before Months of Demon, when he went to small town as envoy, Prince Roland exaggerated and said that he would double the total amount of ore sold. As a result, instead of exporting ore, I have to import ore ingot now?

    Reminiscent of the tower in the previous section and the highhold of the stronghold wall, he found that he was increasingly unable to understand what Prince of the Royals wanted to do.

    However, when Petrov saw the last paragraph of the secret letter, he suddenly stopped.

    Border Town has held several open-air drama performances in the square in the last two weeks?

    No tickets are accepted, the name of the play is unheard of, and serfs are encouraged to watch. What surprised him the most was that the performers had the stars of the Western Region, Miss May, who had not been known for a while!

    What is this situation?

    The disappearance of May is a big news of the recent stronghold. A series of dramas that should have been starred by her have changed the female horns, and the nobles have left the seats to protest. The theater had to issue a notice stating that May had left the theatre without any explanation from anyone, and the whereabouts are unknown. As soon as the news came out, the nobles who loved the drama in the Western Region suddenly became stunned.

    As a result, did she go to Border Town? There is no theater there! And to perform for civilians and serfs…It’s hard to imagine such a scene in Petrov’s mind. Miss May in his impression is not an approachable actor.

    Considering it over and over again, he decided to write a letter to His Royal Highness Roland and formally ask him about it. As a drama lover, I haven’t seen the exciting performances of the Western Region stars for a long time, and even the chances of inviting Shirley are much less. Since the drama was performed publicly in the small town square, it was not surprising that it was seen by the dealers. It happened that the dealer came from Longsong Stronghold, so the news was introduced into his ears – so I thought it would not be possible to hide in the serf. Personal guard.

    Just as Petrov was preparing to let the attendants draft the essay, a Knight walked into the hall and screamed. “The adults, the guards at the East Gate Tower, found that a Knight team is approaching stronghold!”

    “Knight? Can you tell where it came from? ”He suddenly stood up.

    “The other side is holding a high tower double gun flag, adult,” Knight answered. “If it is not impersonation, they should be new King’s troops.”
