I Have a Dragon Island - Chapter 156
[Chapter 156 Viscount Rudolf]
A city about twenty miles away from Fengming Town.
This place is different from Fengming Town, it is extremely prosperous.
There are endless pedestrians on the street, and there are numerous shops. It is completely different from Fengming Town.
It was Viscount Rudolf’s territory, Lanyang City.
At this time, behind the City Lord’s Mansion of Lanyang City, stood an extremely luxurious and huge manor.
There are many towering trees and green spaces in the manor.
At a glance, the greenery alone is worth at least tens of thousands of gold coins.
Not to mention the sculpture pavilions built in the manor.
It is like a stone lion spitting water. It is obviously made by a master and is priceless.
This manor is actually the residence of Lord Lan Yang, Viscount Rudolf.
At this time, in a pavilion in the manor.
Two old men sat opposite each other, each with a set of tea sets in front of them, and were drinking a pot of steaming fragrant tea.
“Haha, Holtu, don’t underestimate this pot, it’s very expensive.”
“This is made from tea leaves imported from Eastern countries. It has a pure fragrance and rich taste. Most people can’t afford it.”
One of the old men laughed loudly and poured another cup of fragrant tea for the other party.
He was dressed in aristocratic clothes, with a golden track wrapped around his waist.
The surface of the golden tracks was smooth, as shiny and soft as silk. Combined with his luxurious clothes, the old man looked extremely noble.
“Hey, look, this belt of mine was also imported from an Eastern country. It is said to be made of a very precious kind of cloth there. It cost me a lot of money.”
When Hortu heard this, he was also very impressed, and the old man’s face turned red and his eyes were shining with joy.
For a moment, the pavilion was filled with a joyful atmosphere.
After a while, the old man put down his teacup, feeling satisfied, and was about to say something.
Suddenly, Holtu took a deep breath, looked at the old man and said, “My Lord Viscount, I heard that the new baron of Fengming Town has taken office. What about our mine?”
His eyes flickered.
Logically speaking, Lanyang City should not interfere in the territory of Fengming Town, but the mine has indeed brought a lot of financial income to Lanyang City.
Holtu knew very well that Viscount Rudolf would never let go, but when he thought that the new baron seemed to have a prominent background, he felt a little uneasy.
Viscount Rudolf held the teacup in his hand and stared at it for a while, as if he was admiring an extremely precious work of art.
He was not in a hurry. He took another sip and then turned his gaze to look at Holtu.
“Holtu, I know what you want to say. But if the new baron really had some background, he wouldn’t have been given such a hard job. You should know how poor Fengming Town is… Of course, the mine is an exception.”
Holtu wanted to say something, but Viscount Rudolf waved his hand.
“You don’t need to say more. We can’t give the mine back. But your concerns are not groundless… How about this, you take some people to Fengming Town in a few days to discuss something with the new baron and give him a little benefit… Just give him a little, you understand what I mean.”
Holtu smiled bitterly and shook his head. It was obvious that he knew very well how stingy… and thrifty his lord Viscount was.
So he said no more, sat aside, and pondered quietly.
…
Fengming Town, Lorraine Manor.
“My Lord Baron, the guards are in place.”
Tommy looked at Yu Bu with great respect, his eyes filled with fanaticism.
In front of Lorraine Manor, a group of young men from the Fengming Guard were staring at the piles of ore, so stunned that they were speechless.
Obviously, he was also very frightened.
Yu Bu smiled slightly and then walked in front of the crowd.
“Tommy has already told you my plan, so I won’t say any more nonsense.”
As he spoke, Yu Bu turned and looked at Tommy.
“Has it been arranged?”
Tommy said hurriedly: “Baron, the residents in the east of the town have been evacuated. But…”
He hesitated for a moment, looking a little strange.
“They obviously misunderstood something and thought that you, Baron… wanted to take the land back. Some of them even cursed at me.”
