Chapter 165: What happened to Kant’s collar? (1/2)

It is a well-prepared dagger. Although it is not an enchanted weapon, the material is blended with a small amount of fine gold and purple steel, which makes it reflect a unique lavender in the light. This material is a weapon. It does not bring about the bonus of extraordinary power, but if you want to deal with the enchanted armor, it will always have a good effect.

On the handle of the dagger, Gao Wen found a mark like a brown bear's head, and there was a circle of garland decorations around the mark.

In this era, many emblems are indiscriminately used. A considerable part of the beasts and flowers are regarded as the "private symbol" of the nobility. The mark that combines the head of the beast and the flowers and plants in many cases means the mark of a certain family. The random use of these marks by the civilians will inadvertently violate the rights of the nobility. According to the heraldry and the Ansu noble law, which is controlled by Gao Wen, the mark on this dagger is obviously a family mark.

For seven hundred years, the family imprint of these nobles still follows ancient traditions.

This dagger should come from the "giving" of a nobleman. According to Gao Wen, the nobles have very strict rules when giving weapons to others: the weapons such as the tomahawk, the warhammer, and the long scorpion are only authorized by the king. And will only be given to the aristocrats with warfare; various types of swords (mainly long swords) are more common gifts, and any nobleman can give others a sword for any reason, but the person who accepts the gift must also An aristocrat must at least reach the knight class; while weapons such as daggers, knives, and short bows are considered "not on the table," and the nobility will give such things to the "civilians" they like, and the goal is usually Excellent performance, escort, or... eagle dog.

"It looks like I judged that the mercenaries were 'domestic' by the aristocratic family," Gao Wen took the dagger and looked at it carefully. "Just don't know if they are loyal to a family, or they are loyal to several at the same time." family……"

"Do you know the mark on this?" Amber curiously came over. "Oh, I started to look at this thing nicely..."

"I don't know," Gao Wen carefully identified, and finally shook his head. "When I am alive, this family should not appear yet. You should call Herti, she should know more about the nobles in the South."

Soon, Hetty came to Gao Wen’s tent.

After carefully identifying the mark on the dagger, she said with certainty: "This is the emblem of the Kant family."

"Kant family?" Gao Wen frowned and recalled, finally found the source of the name in the recent common sense of commonplace, "the viscount north of the Leslie family?"

"Yes, over the wilderness forests in the northern part of the White River, just before you bring back those displaced people to the north, it is the territory of the Kant family," Hetty began to introduce the simple situation of the Kant family. "That is one in three." The family that emerged a hundred years ago was sealed here because of the military exploits. When the Cecil family 'had an accident,' they were loyal to the current royal family, so they escaped the southern cleansing. It is currently a few on the south side of the land. One of the families with a history of more than 100 years."

Gao Wen casually asked: "How is their relationship with the Cecil family?"

“It’s not too far, it’s not close,” Herti replied. “One hundred years ago, when they were cleaning up in the South, they didn’t help, and they didn’t fall into the rocks. They were always neutral. It’s a mysterious family, they are There are not many outsiders, and family members rarely appear in the upper social circles. Although the upper social circles in the South are very loose, the Kant family still has the fewest."

“What are their main industries? Fields? Mines? Or pastures?”

“Kant’s collar produces mainly food, as well as a variety of high-quality herbs, including potions, but no mines.”

"There is a problem, the problem is big..." Gao Wen knocked on the table. "A no-mine, relying mainly on the aristocratic collar of the field, what is the intention of plundering a large group of slaves before winter? And judging from this dagger This group of mercenaries is dedicated to helping the Kant family. They are certainly not the first time to take slaves in the wilderness. So many slaves are sent to Kant. What are they doing?"

“This...” Hetty also realized the strangeness of the problem and suddenly remembered another thing. “It’s strange to say that Kant’s main output has always been food, and herbs and potions are just Sideline, but in recent years, the number of herbs and potions sold abroad has increased year by year, especially the potions, not only has the output doubled, the quality has improved, and the looming has exceeded their food output. It became the main pillar of the Kant family. But from the law of magical distribution, this situation is difficult to explain..."

Due to the existence of various supernatural forces, there are two kinds of "medicinal plants" in the world. In addition to the herbs with general effects, there are also "magic drugs" that can be used in various magical rituals or directly as casting materials. One said that under normal circumstances, the growth of potions is very limited by the local magic environment. Its production will have an upper limit. If the magic environment is not good, then no matter how intensive or improved the seeds, it is impossible to increase the yield of the potion. The quantity may instead lead to a reduction in magic in the medicine.

However, Kant’s production of potions has increased year by year.

In this age of lack of statistics, except for businessmen who specialize in doing business, the nobility rarely realizes the fluctuations in crop yields in the surrounding territories (in fact, they do not necessarily know the crop yields of their own territory, It is the concern of the consultant and the general manager), but Herti is a magician, and is a magician in the family. Usually, he will naturally pay attention to the changes in the surrounding potion market, and he will be acutely aware of this anomaly.

Amber was just boring to listen to it, but her sharp ears suddenly shook a bit, and her face looked horrified: "Mom! The Kant family should not take the living as a fertilizer, right?" !"
