Becoming a lord in another world starts with farming

Owen didn't kill Harvey because he knew it would be useless.

As long as Black Hand doesn't give up and kills Harvey, there will still be Hass, Happy, haha.

With black hands covering half of the empire's sphere of influence, simple killing cannot solve the problem. Only cooperation can last long, and both parties have a tacit understanding of this.

Irving was afraid of trouble, and Black Hand didn't want to miss out on a good partner, so both parties were very sincere. The little finger, one of the five fingers on the left hand, even went to Akita Town in person.

It stands to reason that with Black Hand's size, even if it is only the last little finger of the left hand responsible for intelligence, his status is still not low.

It's a pity that the black hand is the black hand, and it will never be seen in the light. In the eyes of any noble, the black hand is just some dirty rats who throw away their knives after using them. They have no identity.

It was because of his serious lack of status in the eyes of the nobles and the current reputation of Akita Town in the North that Little Thumb decided to come in person to prevent any changes in this cooperation. After all, in his plan, the intelligence network of the North was a priority As a little finger, he couldn't miss this opportunity.

"Lord Little Thumb, this is Akita Town." Harvey, who was responsible for leading the way, said respectfully.

Harvey's appearance didn't change much, but there was a hint of nervousness and urgency in his expression, as well as unconcealed fatigue. It was obvious that he had endured a lot of pressure along the way.

This is not surprising, because the last failure and the exposure of his identity made his life difficult.

If he hadn't been the middleman for this cooperation, he would have been killed long ago.

Even so, Harvey was still under tremendous psychological pressure, especially Little Thumb who came with him all the way.

As the little finger of the black left hand, his appearance is not outstanding. He is just a short young man with an average appearance. He looks surprisingly ordinary. It is not surprising at all to be thrown into the barn to do farm work. On the contrary, it feels like he is where he should be.

There was no way, the left hand was responsible for intelligence, and as the little finger, he had to be ordinary and not attract the slightest attention from others, but this did not affect his rights, and Harvey looked groveling.

Little Thumb didn't pay too much attention to Harvey, but focused on the town of Akita in front of him. Only then did he realize that he had made a very correct decision.

The rich territory, hard-working citizens, prosperous commerce, and elite soldiers made Little Thumb immediately realize that the potential of Akita Town is definitely greater than he imagined. Even because of its geographical location, its importance will become even greater in the future. It will surpass Ferrier Town.

"Maybe you did something good." Little Thumb said to Harvey thoughtfully.

If it weren't for Harvey's failure and identity exposure, he might not have focused on such a northern location for a long time, which would have caused him to miss the best opportunity.

Sensing something from Lord Little Thumb's tone, Harvey secretly breathed a sigh of relief, then personally led the way and checked into the only hotel in the territory.

Without rushing to make any move, Little Thumb stayed quietly in the hotel, spent two days repeatedly reading the information about Akita Town, and then took Harvey to the castle to meet him.

The castle without walls surprised Little Thumb, but when he saw the groups of soldiers and the mighty Teutonic warriors, he understood that the walls were unnecessary. But what shocked him the most was the guard beside Owen. of the Shire.

Although the left hand is mainly responsible for intelligence and smuggling, this does not mean that they do not know the skills of assassins, especially the little finger, which is one of the five fingers. He is not only a clever thief, but also a very good assassin, so he can clearly Feeling his body shaking unconsciously, he immediately understood what kind of existence he was facing.

It's not that Black Hand doesn't have legendary strong men. It's because of the terrifying legendary assassins who can match any legendary limit that Black Hand's power spreads across half of the empire.

It's a pity that although Little Thumb's status is high, he is not known for his strength. Therefore, although he knows that the other party is a legend, there is nothing he can do because only a legend can deal with a legend, and he is not.

Feeling the lock of the legend and the lurking dead soldiers around him, although Little Thumb was not worried about his life safety, he knew that he had already lost the upper hand before he started discussing cooperation.

The advantage of showing strength is that Little Thumb immediately corrected his attitude. He did not dare to show his attitude towards the nobles in the remote countryside, but faced the heir of an established noble.

Yes, the heir of an established aristocracy, this is exactly what the little finger thinks of Owen.

Before, he thought that the other party was just a puppet chosen by a certain big noble, but now he doesn't think so.

The legendary warrior's loyalty to Owen can almost be felt with his soul. A puppet does not receive such treatment.

Even if he is really a puppet, when he gains the loyalty of a legendary warrior, he will gain more attention until he loses this trump card.

"Let me introduce you again. I am the little finger of my left hand, responsible for the intelligence of the North." After obtaining the identity of the little finger, his original name and past were erased, so he introduced it like this.

"Hydra III, Viscount Owen, Mr. Little Thumb, please take a seat." Owen nodded lightly, and then extended his hand to invite the other party to sit down.

The house elf quickly presented the carefully prepared food, and his little finger was full of praise. He didn't know whether it was for the food or the rare magical creature.

The food is just a decoration. When Maya arrives, the real talks have just begun, and Owen is more like a witness.

The Black Hand wanted to establish an intelligence center in the territory, and Maya did not refuse, because while exposing the territory's intelligence, the territory would also gain a stable source of intelligence.

As for the risk of their own information being betrayed, neither Owen nor Maya care much about it.

First of all, the weak are not qualified to obtain information about the territory. Although the black hand is not 100% loyal to the collaborator, and does not even mind betraying the other party, the problem is that more money must be added, because this will damage the black hand's reputation, so reputation damage fees must be paid.

And if someone can force the Black Hand to compromise and pay enough, even if such a being does not go through the Black Hand, there will be other ways to obtain information about the territory. It is just a matter of time.

So the so-called risk only depends on whether the benefits offered by the black hand in exchange are sufficient. If there are enough benefits, even if they are betrayed, Owen and Maya will choose to turn a blind eye.

The conversation between the two parties was not as intense as Owen imagined. First of all, Maya was not dealing with the Black Hand for the first time. Secondly, Little Thumb also had information about the maid and knew the origin and origin of the other party. There is a trap between words because it means nothing.

Everyone is a thousand-year-old fox, and playing tricks is simply a waste of time for both parties. Especially when strength does not have an advantage, honesty is more suitable for the current situation of both parties.
