Lord: Married To A Countess At The Beginning

Go back to a month ago.

Some special guests at Gray's estate are having tea with him.

Gray's eyes moved down from the slender waist of the voluptuous and sexy woman opposite, and saw a slender and stunning red snake tail.

hiss.

I don’t know why, but this female seductress has a kind of charm when she twists her waist, making people unable to take their eyes away.

Gray silently despised himself for being so unable to resist temptation, and then he endured the condemnation of his conscience and continued to watch.

"Ahem!"

In a moment of silence, Mia on the other side picked up the teacup and took a sip with an expressionless expression, then coughed lightly.

When Gray looked away from the snake-human beauty, she stood up and poured Gray a drink, then stood between Gray and the snake-human beauty.

Gray looked at Mia, who had her back turned to him, and silently took a sip of tea.

"Madam, what do you want to do with Mr. Gray? If you have anything to do, just say it directly. Please don't waste Mr. Gray's time and respond to it?"

Mia stared at the snake-human beauty calmly, with no emotion in her big eyes, vaguely as if something was trying to escape.

The snake-human beauty was still flirting with Gray. She was a little annoyed that someone had ruined the atmosphere, but when she looked up, she saw the look in Mia's eyes.

A feeling as if she was being stared at by something terrible made this snake-human beauty feel as if she had fallen into an ice cellar.

She swallowed her saliva, and then no longer expressed her charm intentionally or unintentionally, but said with a smile: "Okay... Okay..."

Under Mia's strong pressure, the beauty of the Snake Tribe cowered. Her tail no longer swayed lazily and seductively, but directly curled up into a ball.

The aura of an intermediate peak magician was enough to make this snake-human beauty feel that her life was in danger.

Seeing that the coquettish snake spirit in front of her finally stopped posing, Mia snorted softly, walked over from Gray, and sat elegantly on the sofa next to Gray again.

It was as if she had done nothing and nothing had happened.

Gray glanced at the trembling snake-man beauty opposite, huddled in a ball, and immediately lost the mood to continue admiring the alien beauty.

"Okay, Maggie, you just said you wanted to negotiate a big deal with me, let's talk about it.

Gray turned the beauty snake's attention to himself.

Maggie was so frightened just now that the look in Mia's eyes made her seem to see herself being cut into eight pieces and cooked into snake soup.

Fortunately, Gray diverted her attention, otherwise Maggie might really be frightened and cause problems.

She is just an ordinary snake-human, stronger than ordinary humans, but facing an intermediate magician, she is still far behind.

With Mia's strength, the only one in the human race who can block her momentum is the elder level.

The leader-level snake-men had no choice but to face Mia.

Maggie glanced at Gray gratefully. Gray pulled her out of the extremely frightened mental state just now, which prevented her from being mentally traumatized.

Mia on the side curled her lips and glanced at Gray with some resentment.

Gray didn't look at her, but was more interested in the business in Maggie's mouth.

He has spent a lot of money recently, and although the money will return to Gray's hands after a period of time, with multiples of growth, that will also be after a period of time.

For Gray now, it would be a good choice if he could make money and communicate with the snake people at the same time.

Of the eight major tribes of orcs, Gray currently controls two, and there are still six tribes left.

"It's like this. When our tribe stayed at your place before, they discovered that your house has a special heating system that can quickly warm the room." 1

Maggie tried her best to ignore Mia on the side, and she said quickly: "Because my people did not feel any magic fluctuations, she asked your people and heard that this is a device called a heater, which can be used completely. Magic can stabilize the device that creates the heat source."

"The elder was very interested after hearing about it, so he wanted me to ask you if you can install this kind of device in our snake tribe, and we can pay enough remuneration.

Maggie explained her purpose, and Gray understood.

Unlike snakes, the snake people hibernate when winter comes.

But after all, they have some characteristics of snakes. They can move at low temperatures, but they prefer warm environments.

Winter is the most annoying time for them every year. Most of them will huddle together in groups and light fires to keep warm.

This method of heating is very inefficient, especially in winter when ten people are lying next to a fire.

And only the center position is warm, and the surrounding positions are not warm at all.

So when the elders of the Snake Tribe heard that Gray had something that could make the whole room warm, they were already excited.

Gray reminded: "I must first state that winter is about to begin. Even if my people work overtime, it is impossible to meet the heating needs of all of you before winter begins. Is this okay? Of course, if you think it is okay, Then we can discuss the issue of remuneration. My workers will not be lazy in winter, provided the remuneration is enough."

Gray said with a smile, the snake people seemed not to care much about him as an outsider.

From beginning to end, they neither drove Gray away nor were as intimate as Gray.

Gray's contact with them was at the trade fair, and Gray politely gave them some tickets.

The snake people also came at that time, but they were obviously very wary on the first day.

But I relaxed in the next few days.

Later he also participated in that transaction.

A pleasant transaction made the snake people re-recognize the value of this human city.

Now that they are actively asking for help, Gray certainly has no reason to refuse.

The snake people quickly negotiated the wages with Gray.

Both parties were very satisfied. Gray felt that it was indeed a big tribe. So many treasures had been traded at the fair, and now (Li Nuo's) could actually bring out dozens of carts of good stuff.

Gray earned hundreds of thousands of gold coins with tears and blood, and then immediately set off with his little yellow hat workers and the snake people.

Because it was his first time to visit the Snake Tribe, Gray was not at ease.

As the saying goes, you must be on guard against others. There are beautiful snakes everywhere in that place. His little yellow hats can withstand the covetousness of the female fairies. Without him following, Gray is afraid that these hundreds of workers will never come back.

Mia and Qiuye both rolled their eyes at Gray's firm request to go together, and in the name of protecting workers.

Now both of them probably understand the nature of this lord.

Is he going to protect others?

He obviously wants to harm others.

In order to ensure that Gray would not be taken advantage of by the beautiful snakes, Mia and Qiuye immediately proposed to go together.

So the three of them left the city with a few hundred little yellow hat workers, two hundred light cavalry, and five hundred infantry and headed towards the snake tribe. .
