Chapter 98 (1/2)
”Yesterday, the count went to talk to the nobles again, and there was no progress at all. Some guys were very tough, and the rest were watching and didn't want to hand over the land.”
In the map room of shenlinbao, sir Aaron, who was not good at looking, pressed his right hand on the map led by the count: ”if this goes on, it is impossible for us to carry out the reform to the whole count before the end of winter!”
Sir Aaron was a little grumpy for no reason. He saw the cold winter coming, but the whole plan still stalled. And those extremely stubborn nobles would rather face off with Reuven Friede to the end, even be put under house arrest in shenlinbao, rather than surrender the already barren land.
”I don't think it's a bad thing.” Lauren, who stood beside him, was very optimistic: ”if we can go to this step, it shows that our plan is very successful.”
In fact, it was beyond his expectation to reach this step. And for Barry senna, who contributed to this, Loren never took it lightly.
For the reason why the old man would suddenly ”change camp”, Loren never found any evidence - the other party seemed to have really changed a person, never left Shenlin castle, and there was no trace of collusion with those nobles.
Is he found after tracking him, or is there any way for the other party to avoid his sight?
”The plan succeeded?” Sir Aaron, frowning, thought for a moment and finally understood what Lauren meant: ”you mean that we can use this method to confirm who is really against the count?”
”That's right - you also said that most people are just watching and there are only a few people who really object.” Lauren nodded when he saw the other party's understanding. ”So we don't have to deal with everyone at all. As long as we clean up these families, the rest will naturally bow down and whisper.”
”In addition, the storage of food in the castle is also a problem.”
”What's wrong with the granary?” Sir Aaron became nervous again, and even couldn't help but accentuate his tone: ”shouldn't such an important thing be confirmed in advance?!”
”You worry too much. I'm not saying there's something wrong with the granary, just a little worried.” Loren quickly waved his hand to let the other party relax: ”I've checked that the food in it is enough to last for three months without food.”
”But if famine breaks out in the whole count next year, it may not last a month.” at this point, even Loren himself chuckled: ”but the probability is too low, so don't care at all.”
”But what if it really happened?” Sir Aaron was still worried.
Loren raised his eyebrows confidently: ”I have my own way.”
If you really get to that point, in addition to asking Duke Fred for help, you can only completely eliminate the nobles who still refuse to surrender and take their food to deal with this forced and helpless choice - otherwise, what else can you do? Loren can't produce food out of thin air.
Before there was no way to go, Loren was unwilling to force others to a dead end; Conversely, if he really has no choice, he doesn't mind killing one or two stubborn guys as fat sheep.
”Lord Loren Turin?”
A sudden voice from the door made the two people turn around at the same time, and some nervous will Senna appeared in their sight: ”sorry, I definitely didn't mean to disturb you!”
”Just two gentlemen want to see you, claiming to be your friends at vimpal college.” the attendant looked at Loren: ”do you want to see him, or do I refuse them?”
”Let me go.” Lauren stepped forward and patted will Senna on the shoulder enthusiastically. ”Thank you, will. Without you, our plan couldn't be so smooth.”
Some ”flattered” attendants scratched their heads with a smile and did not notice the murderous spirit in the dark haired wizard's eyebrows - no third person should know about himself and Sir Aaron in the map room. How did he find himself?
Hiding these in the bottom of my heart, pretending to be sincere, Loren walked to the corridor outside the map without looking back. After repeatedly confirming that no one was following him, he left the castle.
