Start as Inherited Baroness
Chapter 173 Precious Books
Simon handed Chi Yan to Mai Lan beside him and told him: "This horse must be taken good care of and fed with high-quality food. Don't be short of black beans and so on.
In addition, build a separate stable for him to make it better.
This time Maple Leaf Castle also gave two high-quality war horses, one of which is for you to ride, and the other is assigned to Sarit. "
"Yes, sir!" Mailan bowed respectfully and led the horse away.
Simon hurried to the lord's hall. Not long after he took the main seat, Mader arrived with the leader of the Black Bee Town caravan.
"Greetings, Lord Baron! Good day!"
"It's you again. It seems that your return journey is going smoothly. Hey, what's your name?" Simon looked at this person and said with a smile.
"Reporting to Lord Baron, my name is Billiel.
We were following several caravans and luckily we didn't encounter any danger.
I have brought you a personal letter from the Baron of Black Bee Town, please read it. "
The man smiled respectfully, took out a parchment letter from the pouch on his waist, and said.
A guard stepped forward to take it and presented it to Simon.
He cast a poison-detection spell to test it, and only received it in person if there was no problem.
There is a wax seal on the cover of the letter, and the logo is the emblem of the Peel family in Black Bee Town.
Simon peeled off the paint with a slightly unfamiliar movement, took out the parchment inside and read it again.
There was no special message, he just exchanged pleasantries for a while and then expressed his approval of Yaxue as his lover.
I hope the two families can have friendly exchanges and so on.
He put the letter into the envelope and put it away, and ordered: "Mailan, get a pen and paper, and get two more pieces of Holy Light Soap."
"Yes! Sir, please wait a moment."
Mailan responded, went to the bookshelf to get pen and paper, then went out to the inner library, and soon brought two exquisite oak boxes.
By this time, Simon had already written the reply.
"Billil, this is my reply to the Baron of Black Bee Town. In addition, these two items are the Holy Light Soap I gave to the Peel family."
Simon smiled and waved, and the guard immediately sent the things over.
"Thank you, Lord Baron! I will definitely bring you."
Billil bowed respectfully and glanced at the two oak boxes, which were as long as one hand and as wide as his own. He looked a little confused.
Apparently, he didn't know what soap was.
In the Eagle Kingdom, currently only Fruity Castle can make soap, and its output is very low.
It is normal that I have not heard of many small regional caravans.
After all, many barons cannot afford such luxuries.
"Okay, do you have anything else?" Simon asked again.
"Lord Baron, Baron Hughes Peel asked me to come here to meet Miss Yaxue and bring her something.
There are clothes made by her mother, a little money and five books..." Bilil pleaded.
"No problem, but which five books are they? Let me take a look first." Simon said curiously.
"Please wait a moment, sir. I'll go get it right away."
Billil saluted, then turned around and walked out of the Lord's Hall under the guidance of the guards.
Not long after, he brought a wooden box that was not too new.
"Sir, these five books are "Knights Traveling to the End of the World", "The Art of Sculpture", "Iron-Blooded War", "Fairy Tales Under the House", and "Inventory Manual".
They are all in this box, please take a look. "Billil smiled.
"Bring it here." Simon ordered with a more solemn expression upon hearing this.
The guards immediately carried the box over.
Simon cast a poison-detection spell as usual. After there was no problem, he started to pick up and read each book.
The books are all made of parchment, ranging from thin to thick. Overall, the material cost alone is worth a dozen golden eagles.
Simon looked at it for a while and thought to himself: "It's pretty good, does a baron have so many collections?
The Baron of Black Bee Town really loves his daughter. "
Although these books are nominally given to Yaxue, they are actually given to the Huolun family.
However, the Baron of Black Bee Town did not give it away directly. Instead, he transferred a hand through his daughter, which invisibly elevated Yaxue's status.
After all, books are a rare commodity in the Eagle Kingdom, and it is difficult for ordinary big businessmen to obtain them.
The easiest way is to go to the big library in Eagle City to buy it.
Not all books are sold, and according to class, what free people can buy are basically empty words that are useless.
But good books that truly contain some truths and teach skills will not be sold to anyone but the nobility.
And what the baron can buy, what the viscount can buy...the division is clear, and it's worth a lot of money, and you even have to use merit in exchange for it.
These five books given by the Baron of Black Bee Town all have practical significance.
Just like "Knights Traveling to the End of the World", there is some knowledge about marching and setting up camp.
"Fairy Tales Under the House" tells many short stories rich in philosophy, which are good for enlightening children...
"These books are very good. Please express my gratitude to the Baron of Black Bee Town for me.
In addition, salt is produced in my territory, and I can supply it to his caravan at a 10% discount. "
Simon pondered for a moment and said this.
The goodwill released by the Baron of Black Bee Town is not low, and he has to show it.
"Salt!? Thank you, Lord Baron!"
When Billil heard this, his eyes lit up. After all, this thing was a necessity and there was no need to worry about selling it.
As long as the goods are available, the only difference is whether they sell quickly or slowly.
"Mailan, go tell the political officer Ma De about this. Don't make any mistakes and neglect your friends."
Simon ordered with a slight smile and put the book back into the wooden box.
"Yes! Sir!" Mai Lan responded respectfully, and then left to inform.
"Chunlan! Go and invite Miss Yaxue!" Simon called out again.
"Yes~ Master~" The woman responded charmingly and left quickly.
Not long after, Yaxue came to the lord's hall. Billy took a look and quickly looked away.
She is now fair and tender, and it can be seen that she lives a good life.
And she is pregnant, which makes her look plumper.
Yaxue chatted with Billy for a while. After seeing many gifts, her eyes were red and swollen, and she seemed very moved.
Simon just looked at the main seat and did not interrupt.
Not long after, Billy bowed to him and said respectfully: "I have completed the instructions of my baron, please allow me to say goodbye and leave."
"Well, it's still early now, so I won't keep you for dinner.
What goods did you bring this time?" Simon nodded and asked.
"It's linen and honey, and a few carts of iron." Billy replied.
"Go tell Mad to buy all their goods.
You can buy some salt and take it back. There are not many places in the forest valley that produce salt, and you can sell it for a good price." Simon smiled.
"Thank you, Baron! If you need any goods, we can give it to you..." Billy said happily.
Just as he was talking passionately, Mailan suddenly walked into the lord's hall quickly.
He went to Simon's side and whispered: "Baron, something happened in the Secret Forest!
Shelt has sent people to ask for help."
Simon frowned slightly when he heard this, but he still said calmly: "Take Mr. Billy to find the political officer."
Billy knew that there was an emergency, so he stopped talking tactfully, bowed, and left with the guards who led the way.
"What's going on?" Simon looked at Mailan and asked.
