Mount & Blade: Wind of War

Chapter 269 Gift Giving

The next day, Rhodes brought his subordinates and a large iron cage to visit the Minister of Finance, Marquis Angel.

Rhodes knew very well that as a border military noble, all the actions he took in Fastel would be monitored and recorded.

However, as a border military noble who needed financial allocations, it was normal for him to run to Marquis Angel's relationship. It was expected and reasonable.

Moreover, at the night banquet last night, Marquis Angel was frightened because of his relationship.

After arriving at Marquis Angel's mansion, Rhodes found that it was not only him who came to give gifts, but there was almost a long queue at the gate.

If he queued, he would not be able to send the gift card for a while.

"It is worthy of being the capital of the king. It has the atmosphere of the capital of the king. When can our officials in Gushan have such a..." What is this waiting for? Rhodes thought for a long time and was at a loss for words, but he couldn't think of it.

Fortunately, after all, during this period, the butler found Rodhart and his party, and went back to report to the Marquis. After a while, he passed the crowd and was taken into the Marquis's mansion first.

"Lord Rodhart, you scared me once last night, it's not enough, you sent a demon today, do you want to scare me again?"

The white and fat Marquis Angel smiled, as if harmless, but Rhode saw him face life and death last night, that kind of calm and calm look, knowing that the fat man in front of him is not simple at all.

Of course, this is also a judgment that does not require judgment. How could a simple person control the empire's finances for more than 20 years?

You know, His Majesty Ledson Revic is not a great lord (no achievements that are recorded in history), but at least he is definitely not a tyrant (he has been firmly in power for nearly 40 years).

Behind Marquis Angel is still the young man in black robe and silver hair, who seems to be a bodyguard of Angel.

"This child is my nephew. I have been keeping him by my side because he is more sensible."

"Nephew? Are you kidding me? Do you two look alike?" Of course, he couldn't say such a thing. Rhode smiled and nodded, accepting the words that the fat pig-like Angel and the handsome young man next to him were uncle and nephew.

With the status of Marquis Angel, you don't need to really believe his lies. Anyway, whether you believe it or not, you have to choose to believe it in most cases.

"I am very sorry for scaring you last night. The North is poor and there are really no special products. I brought two demons in total. One is given to His Majesty and the other is given to you. It's not a good thing. Don't play with it every day. It will hurt your body."

"Alas, demons are not interesting things. How can I play with them every day?" A total of two demons were captured alive, one was given to His Majesty, and the other was given to himself. Even if he didn't like demons, Marquis Angel felt very happy at this moment.

Therefore, he raised his fat hand and shook it gently, indicating that he would not play with it too much.

Then, Rhode pulled down the linen covering the iron cage, and then, Marquis Angel and the black-robed silver-haired man behind him, who was like an ice cube, were stunned for a moment:

Succubus, with natural charm, makes many great wizards unable to control their existence. Although intelligence and self-control are not completely equal, they are also related attributes. From this, it can be seen from the side that how tempting succubus is.

Rhode doesn't like it because he has mysophobia. Girls, lolita, wives, and queens are all right, but creatures like succubus are not.

"I think this should be a top-notch product. There are not many enchantresses in the hell demon army. Only elites like this can freely control the scaly skin on their bodies..."

At this moment, Rhode suspected that Marquis Angel could no longer hear what he was saying.

His eyes and spirit were completely attracted by the white jade body of the work of art in the iron cage.

Therefore, Rhodes covered the linen cloth again with a backhand wave, which made Marquis Angel and the young man behind him come back to their senses.

"My lord, is there anything about military expenses?" It was awkward and ugly to bring up things when giving gifts to big shots, and it was not a smart choice. However, this time was an exception.

"Lord Rhodes, defending the country and protecting the people is our responsibility and obligation as His Majesty's subjects and as the nobles of the country. Don't worry, even if everyone opposes this time, I will definitely give you a satisfactory amount and additional policies!"

"Then I won't bother you to play with this gift slowly. Please take care of your health for the sake of the country." The subtext of Rhodes' words is that you will be killed by the succubus before the policy is approved.

But at this moment, Marquis Angel's focus is no longer on him. He waved his fat hand to signal to send him away.

If it is an auction, a succubus can only sell for 10,000 gold coins at most, but if it is a national grant, this gift is well given, and it is possible that 10,000 gold coins will become 100,000 gold coins or 200,000 gold coins.

Elite Hell Enchantress, Hell Tier 3, Level 12 Soldier, Hell Enchantress can create fireballs and throw them at the enemy. She has a strong instinct for revenge and any shooter who attacks Enchantress must be prepared to receive intensive fire in return.

Succubus is the advanced form of Hell Demon. In addition to having a beautiful appearance, succubus also has a voice as sweet as honey. As long as they hear her words, almost any creature will be hopelessly devoted to her.

Special note: Only a very small number of elite succubus have a strong charm for humans. Otherwise, the beauty of hell is not universal in the human world, so they can only use charm spells to forcibly control.

Compared with Marquis Angel, another important figure, Countess Ashwin Emilian, is much easier to deal with. Although she is a mistress of His Majesty, she is greedy for money. After Rhodes presented a generous gift, this beautiful and coquettish socialite promised Rhodes to blow his pillow.

Because this is really a favor that goes with the flow. His Majesty Ledsonrevic originally planned to give a reward. A border pioneer lord rescued the princess and sent her back to the capital safely thousands of miles away. If such an act is not rewarded, who in the world will be loyal to the Styak royal family?

What Rhode had to do was to add fuel to the fire. After all, Lonely Mountain Castle was in the capital, and it was a place where one had to take a quick buck and leave.
