The last 2000 yuan

I have seen Grand Duke Anlie all year round.

This is a hale and hearty old man with a calm and dignified face. His actual age is over 70, but his mental outlook is much younger.

"Your name is Chang Nian?" Grand Duke An Lie beckoned him to follow.

"Yes." Perennial was one step behind and followed behind Grand Duke Anlie.

While the other guards saw the Grand Duke's gesture clearly, they all stayed where they were.

The Grand Duke walked up the castle stairs step by step, as if talking casually: "Why did your family name you this?"

Perennial: "My surname is Chang. My family members hope that I will be happy, healthy, safe, victorious and rich all year round, so they call me Chang Nian."

The Grand Duke seemed to smile, "Single surnames are rare, do you have your father's or your mother's surname?"

"Father."

"Really." The Grand Duke had a new guess in his mind.The social status of a single surname is generally not too high. For example, the Cairen tribe is not allowed to use plural surnames, but it does not mean that a single surname must be a Cairen tribe.So that child is a daughter?

"Your grandfather was quite a man, wasn't he?"

All the year round, he thought that his grandfather had served in the army and worked as a military doctor before he was alive. He had saved countless people, and then he was infected and sacrificed while saving people. It's my pride."

The Grand Duke showed such a look in his eyes.

An Lienuo, his grandparents, was a great magician when he was a child. If he is still alive, who knows how far he has reached, but since the guy who can make a teenager appear with his old magician badge, he should still alive?

The Grand Duke looked at the young man just now, and the other party did not have the obvious appearance characteristics of An Lie's family, but those extremely energetic eyes reminded him of the appearance of the uncle he had seen when he was a child.

In fact, he couldn't remember the appearance of that uncle, but he remembered that the other party had a pair of very bright and bright eyes.

"Your grandfather also had a title and a fief, and it was conferred by the King of the Black Sea himself, but he didn't want to be a court magician, so he rejected the title and fief. His Majesty the King took back the fief, but still reserved the title for him."

Hearing this all the year round, he knew that the Grand Duke must have misunderstood his life experience, and he quickly thought of the magician badge given to him by the old man in the grocery store.

Is to admit, or deny?

Perennial did not hesitate, and immediately denied: "Sorry, I think you may have misunderstood, my grandfather is a very remarkable person in my eyes, but he is really not a nobleman."

The Grand Duke waved his hand, as if he was not surprised that he would deny it all the year round, "I understand."

what do you understandHe has been dumbfounded all the year round, the Grand Duke didn't give him a chance to explain at all, but he couldn't explain his origin in detail.

"That guy doesn't want you to borrow his name, I can understand. But you really don't need to rely on that guy for your own strength." The Grand Duke hopes to see his kind and kind side all the year round, but unfortunately his face and temperament can't let him Like a really kind old man, "You are outstanding, your family must be very proud of you."

Perennial: "Thank you."

The Grand Duke stood at the highest point of the castle, looking into the distance, and the wind blew past, bringing some comfort to the hot season.

"I am very happy that you are willing to come to the Principality of Anlie and admit that you are from the Principality of Anlie."

"..." Perennial wanted to say that he hadn't admitted it yet, but held back.

"Then are you willing to protect the Principality of Anlie in the future?"

"That depends on what the Principality of Anlie can give me." Perennial said calmly.

Not only was the Grand Duke not angry at the young man's arrogance, but he laughed loudly: "Okay! You are worthy of being from my An Lie family!"

Perennial: "Sorry, my surname is not An Lie."

The Grand Duke turned his head, glanced at the young man, and sneered: "I will give you the fiefdom and title of our country, even if you are not An Lie's family."

I haven't seen excitement all year round, and I don't have much joy, "I don't want you to give me anything because you misunderstood my background. If I get the title and fief, it should be because of my own strength."

The Grand Duke sneered again: "The blood of my relatives will not allow me to give you fiefs and titles. The title of Anlie Duchy only depends on strength. If you are not strong enough, you can only be a rich parasite. You have eighth-level qualifications, but you have nearly four-level magic power. Super mental power, and a pharmacist who can refine high-quality potions during his apprenticeship at a young age. These are enough for me to reward you, it just depends on whether you want it or not."

All the year round, he has not been frightened by the Grand Duke's cold and stern eyes, and his appearance is as relaxed as talking to his elders: "This is my honor. But the magic world pays attention to the principle of equal value exchange. May I ask what I have to pay for my title and fief? "

Appreciation and relief flashed in the Grand Duke's eyes, but his face remained the same cold and stern as before, and his tone became severe: "Are you negotiating terms with me?"

He laughed all the year round, "Do you want to give me a title and fief for nothing, without requiring me to pay any price? If so, I am also very happy to accept it, but can I designate the location of the fief myself?"

The grand duke seemed to have given him the boldness, "You still want to designate your own fiefdom? Where do you fancy? Anlie City?"

He waved his hands all the year round, "What do I want to do there? I don't want to be the lord of the city, nor the king. I just want a place to grow medicinal herbs, and at the same time, it is convenient for me to conduct some magic experiments."

The Grand Duke snorted softly, his face softened slightly, "You want to build a magic tower?"

"That is the goal of the future, and it is too far away to think about it now."

"You can think about it now." The Grand Duke said domineering CEO.

All the year round, he seemed to be helpless towards the old man's arrogance, and said perfunctorily: "Okay, I think now, I want fertile land, abundant water sources, and it is best to be close to forests and mountains."

The Grand Duke began to think about whether there was any territory with such conditions in his Principality of Anlie. If not, he would give a piece to the child.Anyway, he has been displeased with the surrounding countries for a long time, and the division of some territories is not clear at all.

"I've taken a fancy to the area near Nanka Lake, which is close to the forest on the south bank." For years, he was afraid that the Grand Duke would directly designate a place for him, so he directly stated his destination.

"Where?" the Grand Duke frowned, "Adventure City is already very remote, and this area is already close to Baixu Kingdom, and the relationship between our country and Baixu Kingdom is not very peaceful. If there is a fight in the future, this place will definitely become a battlefield. You want to take your territory Set it here?"

The Grand Duke felt that the little boy in front of him didn't have the sharp vision of his uncle in politics and battle.

Shrugging his shoulders all the year round, he doesn’t care and thinks self-consciously: “What about the border? The geological resources and products are very rich here, and there are a lot of people living in it. In addition, there is an adventure city next to it, with land, population, and commercial circulation. It seems to be an excellent territory worth developing, and the remoteness and vastness of the place make it convenient for me to grow a lot of medicinal herbs and do magic experiments. As for the war, since I dare to claim the territory, I naturally have the means to protect it."

There was a smile in the Grand Duke's eyes again, but his face was still not good-looking, "You are just a little magic apprentice, where did you get the confidence to keep your territory during the war? According to the convention, extraordinary people are not allowed to attack ordinary people in battle , but not every king is willing to abide by the rules of the game. Some kings will send extraordinary people to carry out crushing attacks. How long can your territory last under the magical bombardment of several battle magicians? Even if there are no magicians, How many of those fighters who can crack mountains and open rocks, and release internal energy to the outside, can you deal with?"

Perennial asked: "Is Anlie Principality going to war with Baixu Kingdom soon?"

"Not really."

"So is there a possibility of war within ten years?"

"It can't be guaranteed in ten years, but it shouldn't happen in five years." The Grand Duke seemed to understand what he wanted to ask all the year round, showing an obvious smile.

"That's enough." Perennial said confidently: "Five years is enough for me to manage my territory like an iron bucket. If Bai Xuguo doesn't go here, it's fine. If he goes here, I believe he would rather take down Adventure City. And won't touch my territory."

"You are really confident." The Grand Duke seemed to be mocking.

He waved his hands all the year round, and said modestly: "I am a very self-aware person, and my self-confidence comes from strength."

Grand Duke: "..." He hasn't been choked like this for a long time.

The Grand Duke suddenly laughed lowly, "You can ask for the fief here, but what can you give me?"

"Does it count if I help you guard the territory?"

"Get out! As a lord, you should have kept your territory. If you can't keep it, don't even think about getting it back!" the Grand Duke scolded angrily.

He didn't feel the real anger of the Grand Duke all the year round, so he just got skinny: "According to what you said, the territory I defended belongs to me, so the land and population I conquered also belong to me?"

The Grand Duke sneered: "As long as you have the ability."

He is eager to try all the year round, he doesn't want to be king, but it's okay to lay down more territory and give it to Tie Buping to manage. The future big boss should like to expand the territory, right?Going a step further, wouldn't it be nice for the Cairen tribe to have their own country?

The Grand Duke saw that his heart was moving, so he couldn't help but stretched out his hand and patted the boy on the back of the head: "You first learn magic for me honestly! I hope that you, kid, are now guarding the territory and can build new territories. You think that there is no one in the Principality of Anlie!" ?"

His body remained motionless all year round, and he only turned his head to avoid the giant palm that the Grand Duke patted.

The Grand Duke snorted, "Your reaction and speed are good, not like those delicate magicians."

The Grand Duke reassured again: "That's right, you have the demeanor of your ancestors. Back then, your grandfather was also a battle magician, and he was also one of the best demon gods on the battlefield. Warriors of the same level as him were unwilling to fight with him."

Perennial had no choice but to declare again: "My grandfather is not the person you think, please don't misunderstand my background."

"Okay, okay, I got it, I won't mention him again in the future." The Grand Duke waved his hand, he didn't really treat him differently just because he was the descendant of Perennial. Give him a little monetary reward, arrange a house and some servants in Anlie City for him, and send him away.

He is willing to give perennial fiefs and titles, just because it is worthy of his support all the year round.

"You are still an apprentice, and you have not made any contribution to our country. At the beginning, you can only be given the title of first-class viscount at most. Don't be too low. This is not a false title. You will have a territory and your own people, and the location can also be set according to Come at the place you specify." The Grand Duke thought that the place he wants all year round is so remote, so he should allocate more for him.In addition, this kid doesn't mind using vegetable servants as slaves, so move some vegetable servants from other places over and use them as he pleases.

Ge Yu's territory is Adventure City, and the nearby land does not actually belong to Ge Yu, but to the Principality.

The Grand Duke looked sideways at the young man: "As for the price you have to pay, like other lords, you can be exempted from tax within five years, and the tax you should pay after five years cannot be less than a copper coin. In addition, within five years, unless someone hits you, otherwise Exemption from all war service. But after five years, if the country needs it, you need to be called to the battlefield to support. As for yourself, you don’t need to do anything until you become a junior magician. When you have the ability to truly protect yourself, Then I will call you up."

If he was an ordinary boy all year round, he would happily follow up with such "subsidy" after hearing it.

But perennial is not an ordinary boy, his original experience on earth made him much higher than others in terms of vision and pattern.

A barren little territory cannot bind his life.

Perennially smiled suddenly: "Your Majesty, the magic world pays attention to the principle of equivalent exchange. What I give must be equal to what I get. I am willing to accept the fief and title you give me, and I am willing to pay taxes to you according to the rules of ordinary territories. You guard the country's gates in this area, but other than the enlistment or civil service, we might as well change the way."
