Alien King

Chapter 473 Descendants of the Kaqiu Family

But now there is also a very critical problem, that is, the grain reserves in Huangfu'an's hands are running out, and they can last for at most six or seven days.Therefore, what Ye Tian has to do now is to destroy the confidence and confidence of these Eka nobles to continue buying food within six to seven days, so that they stop immediately.

As long as these nobles stop and the grain price tends to stabilize and drop, it will be like these nobles have lost the food war.At that time, they still have a lot of grain in their hands, and whether they continue to store it or sell it at a low price, they will suffer huge losses.

After a while, Ye Tian followed the guards leading the way to a side hall.

As soon as he entered the side hall, Ye Tian was taken aback for a moment, and secretly smiled in his heart, secretly thinking: This really saves time, dare to love these nobles, they are all here.

Glancing at the many nobles, Ye Tian clasped his fists and saluted, and said: "Unexpectedly, all the adults are here, Ye Tian is a little disturbed."

Some of these aristocrats had high vision, glanced at Ye Tian, ​​and ignored them.Some, due to Ye Tian's status, returned the salute quite politely.

As the host, Van Delkin had already experienced Lin Qiyu's methods on the city wall before, so he didn't dare to neglect at this time.He hurriedly arranged for Ye Tian to sit on the first seat.

After Ye Tian sat down, he glanced at the many nobles again, and then at Van der King.

Van der King forced a smile, and said: "My lord, I am waiting for more than [-] nobles in Ye Castle to discuss here and see if we can take some measures within our ability to stabilize the price of food in the city."

Ye Tian snorted and nodded.

Van der King and Earl Sord exchanged glances, and continued: "I don't know if the governor is visiting today, but do you have something to tell us old bones?"

Ye Tian raised his head and said: "I don't want to beat around the bush, and I don't want to waste time. I'm here today to remind you directly, and by the way, let you give all the cities, counties, states, and other counties in the entire Eastern Siberia a The nobleman also brought a message, just say that I, Ye Tian, ​​have already stored [-] million tons of grain in Liaodong County. If you still have enough money, I don’t mind selling it all to you at a high price. In this way, I can still make a lot of money.”

Speaking of this, Ye Tian paused for a while, and then continued: "Please think carefully about it."

As soon as Ye Tian's words fell, the many nobles present fell into silence for a while.In all honesty, if what Ye Tian said is true, there are really [-] million tons of grain stored in Liaodong. Even if calculated according to the normal grain price, then the wealth of all the nobles in the entire Eastern Siberian State added up, It is also far from enough.What's more, the current food price has doubled by five times.

After Ye Tian finished speaking, he patted the armrest of the chair, stood up, and walked outside.

Many nobles looked at each other in blank dismay.Xin Dao, the governor of Liaodong, really didn't beat around the bush and didn't waste time, he just said this sentence, directly stated the key points, hit the vital point directly, and there was no room for turning around or negotiating.

Earl Thord was so angry that the flesh on his face trembled again.Seeing Ye Tian walk in front of him, he wanted to stop him from saying something, but he couldn't say anything.

People have already said it very clearly, and the meaning is very clear.That layer of window paper, which is inconvenient to say clearly, was pierced in one fell swoop.Or, for others, this layer of window paper does not exist at all, and everything is on the bright side.

At this moment, the angry Earl Thord suddenly saw a dark red pattern imprinted on the neck of an Oka girl right next to Ye Tian.

Earl Sord was stunned for a moment, then his face turned pale with shock, and he stared blankly at the girl, feeling a little overwhelmed for a while.

To Earl Sord, the dark red pattern was very familiar.It was the pattern of the Kaqiu family with the most outstanding military exploits among the members of the previous generation of Eka royal family.

Although in the subsequent series of political changes, the Kaqiu family was implicated, and the main members of the family were killed and exiled one by one, after His Royal Highness Prince Ivan came to power, he had washed away the grievances of the Kaqiu family. Most notably, the first nobleman of the Eka royal family was rehabilitated.

For this dark red pattern, perhaps among the more than 20 noble members present, only Earl Sood felt the most in his heart.

Because the reason why Earl Sord became a prominent nobleman in Eka was because his predecessor was once a small guard in the Kaqiu family.

During the victory period, the Kaqiu family controlled almost half of the territory and power of the Eka Empire, second only to the emperor.

Thinking of this, Earl Sord couldn't bear it again, and said, "Wait a minute."

Hearing Earl Soder's words, Ye Tian shrugged his shoulders, then turned around, looked at Earl Soder, and asked, "What's the matter? Sir Earl, do you have something to say?"

Earl Sord leaned on a cane and tremblingly came behind Yeka.He looked carefully at the dark red pattern on Yeka's neck again.

Panting slightly, Earl Sord walked around to Yeka again, looked at Yeka, and asked, "Girl, what's your name?"

Yeka was a little strange, first looked at Ye Tian.

Ye Tian gave a slight signal, and Ye Ka said, "My name is Ye Ka."

"Yeka?" Earl Thord frowned.In all honesty, this name doesn't quite resemble the name of a Central Plains person, nor is it a standard Eka person's name, but rather resembles the fusion of the two.

"Where are you from?" Earl Thord said again.

Relying on his instinctive sense of smell, Ye Tian felt that this oldest nobleman had clearly discovered some of Yeka's secrets.

Yeka's predecessor was Katyusha, and Katyusha was very famous in the military circles of the Russian Empire, and had the reputation of being the number one flower in the military circles.

Now even though Bi Ling's natural magic has been used to change Yeka's face, she has completely changed her appearance.But some unique temperament and habitual behaviors cannot be changed.

More importantly, Ye Tian also noticed that Earl Soder had been paying attention to a dark red mark on Yeka's neck.

Presumably, this dark red mark must have a great connection with Katyusha's identity and status.Otherwise, it would be impossible to attract such great attention from Earl Soder.

Now, Ye Tian is Ye Ka's soul master, so he can naturally send a wisp of thought to Ye Ka at will.

After accepting Ye Tian's meaning, Yeka said, "I am from Eka."

Earl Sord nodded, and continued to ask: "May I ask, which city and state were you born in? Who are your parents?"

Yeka smiled wryly, and said, "I'm ashamed to say that I'm an orphan. The family suffered a change in the early years, both parents died, and relatives passed away."

Speaking of this, Ye Ka turned her head, glanced at Ye Tian, ​​and continued: "I have been wandering alone since I was a child, and I have escaped from death several times. If I hadn't met my brother-in-law, I am afraid that I would not live today."

Earl Sord looked at Yeka carefully with a complicated look on his face.

In all fairness, Earl Soder has always had a thorn in his heart regarding the wrongs suffered by the Kaqiu family.Even if His Royal Highness Prince Ivan had vindicated the Kaqiu family after he came to power, except for one of Lord Kaqiu’s youngest daughters who escaped the killing in the catastrophe at that time, everyone else had already died in that catastrophe. In a brutal massacre.

Lord Kaqiu's youngest daughter, if alive, would be in her twenties by now.

Thinking of this, Earl Soder continued to look at Yeka carefully, his brows and eyes were full of concern.

Age, gender, origin, and more importantly, the symbol of the Kaqiu family on the neck, all of these are matched.Earl Sord sighed with a complex expression on his face, looked at Ye Tian, ​​and said, "Master Governor, can I have a chat with this girl alone?"

Ye Tian looked at Earl Soder's expectant expression, and after a while, he finally shrugged and said, "As long as you can ensure her safety, it's certainly possible."

Earl Sord smiled wryly, and said: "The whole of Yekaterinburg is in the hands of the governor. If I use such a child's method to stop a hostage, it will make people laugh."

Ye Tian looked at Ye Tian and said, "We'll wait for you outside."

Yeka nodded and smiled.

After everyone in Ye Tian walked out of the mansion, Earl Soder looked at Ye Ka seriously, and said, "Girl, do you know what that dark red mark on your neck represents?"

Yeka shook her head and said, "This mark has been there since I was a child. I always thought it was a birthmark."

At this moment, Earl Thord's mouth moved suddenly, but he didn't say anything.At the same time, the dark red mark on Yeka's neck suddenly lit up.

The moment he saw the dark red mark light up, Earl Soder became even more excited, his voice trembled, and he said: "This is the second largest nobleman in the Eka Empire, the member of the Kaqiu family. Mark. Girl, if my guess is correct, you should be the only descendant of the Kaqiu family."

As soon as this remark came out, many nobles around were in an uproar.

"Ah? Is this a descendant of the Kaqiu family?"

"Impossible, isn't the Kaqiu family being ransacked?"

"Master Kaqiu's youngest daughter? Hey, if it's true, it's about the same age."

"Don't tell me, this girl's appearance really looks like Master Kaqiu."

Listening to everyone's discussion, Yeka said with a confused face: "The Kaqiu family?"

Earl Thord suddenly knelt down on one leg, his old voice was a little choked, and he said in a deep voice: "Old slave Thord Kaqiu, see Miss."

Hearing Earl Soder's words, other nobles also knelt on one leg and said in unison: "See Miss Kaqiu."

The Kaqiu family was the second largest family in the Russian Empire, second only to the Ivan family.The Ivan family is naturally the emperor's family, and the Kaqiu family is firmly in the second place.It can be said that the Kaqiu family almost completely controlled the military circles of Eka, and the status of Mr. Kaqiu in the Eka empire was out-and-out.

The reason why many nobles present have their current noble status is that they are more or less inextricably linked with Mr. Kaqiu back then.

At this time, Yeka was even more at a loss and said, "You guys, what are you doing?"

Earl Sord said tearfully, "Miss, after all these years, I have found you."

At this time, Van Derkin came over, bent down and pulled Earl Russode's arm, and said in a low voice: "I said, you have to see clearly, is she really Miss Kacho? Don't you Forget, she belongs to Ye Tian."

Earl Thord turned his head, looked at Van der King and said, "Of course, I can't be sure if it's other characteristics. But the mark of the Kaqiu family on her neck is genuine. The mantra has been confirmed, and when I recite the mantra, the dark red mark on her neck brightens up."
