Smelting everything from pirates

Chapter 702 The army crushes the realm!

Earl Gilbert held a glass of wine in his hand and looked at the butler sitting next to him. Earl Gilbert's eyes were long and narrow, looking like a fox. Extra delicious.

"Hardy, is that guy from Nevist territory here?"

The butler next to him, Hardy, also took a sip of the wine. The Nivister territory that Barrett is in charge of is legally a subordinate territory of Earl Gilbert.

In the past, Earl Gilbert always wanted to control Barrett in his own hands, but since the Nyvist Territory is surrounded by the Roma Mountains on three sides and the sea on one side, if you cross the mountains, you will not only have to cross the Mosquito Swamp , Need to resist the green-skinned orcs who don't know how many people are on the mountains.

If one had to cross the sea, it would be very difficult to find the Nevis territory, although the Earl of Gilbert already knew the location of the Nevis territory.

It was he who was still unwilling to spend his soldiers and the very precious navy to attack the Nevis territory.

"Barrett hasn't come to the Winter Territory yet, judging by the situation, he won't be coming this year."

Hearing what the butler Hardy said, Earl Gilbert showed a sneer. In the past, Earl Gilbert really didn't have any good solutions for Barrett. If Barrett doesn't pay taxes, he has nothing to do. punitive measures.

But since Gilbert has made a lot of money in the process of cooperating with Barrett's Neve Stirling, selling cosmetics and various drugs, now Gilbert has enough troops to take back Neve Sturt territory.

"It's just winter, Hardy, let Titus dispatch an army now, I want to see how arrogant that little bastard Barrett is, how dare he disobey his lord's order!"

In fact, the butler, Hardy, had long thought of attacking the Nevis territory that Barrett was in charge of. After all, a small baronial territory was so rich that it even had a population of more than 5.

And Hardy had heard about it a long time ago. Barrett had been taking in homeless people everywhere. The population in many lords' territories had become very sparse, and it was Barrett who did it.

Now that Earl Gilbert is preparing to attack Barrett, Steward Hardy can be said to be in favor of it, and I am afraid that other baron families will also be happy to see it.

In the Nevis Territory, the first snow fell again this year. Compared with other territories, because the Nevis Territory is closer to the north, it usually snows earlier, usually in October. about.

But now Barrett has been leading the workers in his workshop to work overtime to make chilblain medicine, and at this time, Tina's Starr Family Star Chamber of Commerce also sent a group of people to Nyvist In the territory.

Barrett did not participate in the remaining transactions and various wrangling terms. Instead, he asked the butler to negotiate with those people. Barrett's butler, Bennett, had already supported his father. Until now, he has been helping Barrett manage his territory.

"The temperature in winter is now a little lower than before. Presumably our chilblain medicine can be sold more expensively. As long as everyone works hard, it is very possible for me to earn a lot of money next year."

Walking in the factory, Barrett said loudly to every worker like a seasoned capitalist. In fact, the factories under Barrett are really similar to those in the 21st century.

Barrett has always believed in the rule of more work, more pay. For example, the factories under other nobles, and the workers in Barrett's factories, can give you more money as long as you are willing to do it.

Therefore, each worker is more willing to work overtime than those workers in other factories.

Every worker looked at Barrett with admiration in his eyes, and quickly lowered his head to deal with the work matters under him.

In Barrett's territory, not every farm grows food and various vegetables, and as many as 1/4 of the farms grow various medicines.

Because Barrett discovered that in the world of Warhammer in the Middle Ages, many nobles had no good medicine to use after they fell ill, and more of them used divine magic to treat them. However, those priests in the church who could use divine magic, Fees can be said to be not cheap.

Once many nobles go to treat a disease, they will basically spend all their income for the whole year, but since the various drugs developed by Nevisterin a few years ago.

The income of some priests in the church who could release healing spells suddenly fell like a cliff. Many priests decided to come to Nivestrin to assassinate Barrett.

But don't talk about whether those priests have the ability to assassinate Barrett, it's just a matter of finding the Nevis leader.

But this winter, the sea was not calm. The navy from Earl Gilbert sailed along the wind and snow towards the Nyvist territory.

"How far is it from the Nevis territory now?" said the leading admiral, Etas.

Standing next to him was the butler Hardy, who had a chart in his hand. After all, Earl Gilbert was Barrett's immediate boss, so it was understandable that he knew the exact location of Nevist's territory.

"It will probably take a day's voyage to reach the outskirts of the Nyvist Territory, but I heard that the Nyvist Territory also has a small naval vessel of its own. The number is about 12, but those ships are all double The masted sailing ship is not very strong, and the ship is not equipped with artillery!"

After Ettas heard about the combat effectiveness of the Nevis territory, a mocking smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

"Don't worry, the soldiers under me can definitely occupy the entire Nyvist territory, that Barrett boy in his 20s, I will personally take his head off, how dare he disobey the order of his lord !"

In the snowstorm, several fishermen who were fishing in the offshore seemed to see a huge fleet coming towards their home in the distance through the snowstorm.

"Where did that fleet come from?" A bald-headed fisherman looked at the fleet faintly appearing in the snowstorm in the distance with some doubts.

But the old fisherman who stood beside him pushed him instantly and said, "Hurry up and sail back, the enemy is coming to attack us!"

A bald-headed fisherman reacted instantly, raised the canvas on the fishing boat, and sailed towards the port of Nyvist Territory in the direction of the wind and snow.

The port in the Nyvist Territory will not be frozen all year round, even in the snowy winter. You still have some fishermen who will go out to fish because of the lack of meat in winter, and they can earn a lot of money.

The fishermen drove the boat, but it took more than ten minutes to return to the port in the direction of the wind and waves. The cargo workers on the pier looked at the fishermen in such a hurry, and had some doubts.

"Big bald head, why are you two so anxious? Did you catch a tuna on the sea?"

The bald fisherman said at this moment: "Where is the lord? I must go to see the lord now!"

The workers on the pier drove back along the direction of the pier. There was a river in the middle of the pier. If you walked up the river, you could see the factory that Barrett built in the territory.

Of course, it is impossible to use livestock in the factory to transport the things produced in the factory. Naturally, the factory should be set up on both sides of the river, so that the transportation capacity can be greatly saved.

Following the direction pointed by the dock worker, the bald fisherman quickly got into his boat and rowed upstream along the river.

"This big bald head is really strange. Why do you want to see the lord in such a hurry?"

The workers on the dock were still chattering, but they were busy with work at this time, so they could only chat casually before heading to the cargo ship to unload.

Barrett in the factory has been recording all the quantities shipped at this time, but at this time there is a fishing boat going up the river from the lower reaches of the river.

The first one was a fisherman with a bald head, and he was not afraid of frostbiting his brain in the cold winter wind.

When he saw Barrett, the bald fisherman immediately said loudly.

"My lord, my lord, it's not good now. We found out at sea that a fleet has come to our territory. What should we do now?"

When Barrett, who was standing on the square in the factory, heard the bald fisherman say this, he had an idea in his mind, not only instinctively thinking of Earl Gilbert.

Ever since Barrett became the Baron of Nyvist Territory, he hadn't seen Earl Gilbert, and now that old guy finally made his move on Nyvist Territory.

Not only did Barrett's eyes emit a bloodthirsty light in an instant, he had been waiting for this day for a long time.
