Chapter 128 It's All Business
Chapter 128 It's All Business
The Lionheart Knight Henry has been paying attention to Zhang Wei's expression. This is also what His Majesty the King personally instructed him to do.
Zhang Wei pretended to be relieved and said to Henry the Lionheart Knight, "Please report to His Majesty the King. We are just lucky and never thought we would get to this point. Everything will be in accordance with His Majesty the King's arrangements."
After Zhang Wei finished speaking, he asked the Lionheart Knight Henry Xin how to deal with it.
"I can help you burn it." Lionheart Knight Henry immediately answered Zhang Wei's question.
Zhang Wei sneered in his heart, knowing that the royal family wanted to destroy the body and cover up all evidence, so that they could turn against them at any time in the future.
Zhang Wei handed the letter and envelope to Lionheart Knight Henry, who quickly burned the letter and envelope with a magic scroll.
"Is there anything else?" Zhang Wei asked.
"This is the territory card of Rosales Town. His Majesty the King considers your contribution to the kingdom, so he specially awards this place to you. Please accept it, Viscount." The Lionheart Knight Henry took out the territory token of Viscount Rosales and handed it to Zhang Wei with both hands.
Zhang Wei is really at a loss whether to laugh or cry. In his previous life, he didn't want it, and others didn't want to give it to him. However, because both sides were embarrassed, the world finally collapsed and was wiped out.
In this life, just because I gave up the identity of a hero that I didn't want, I ended up getting this viscountship. What the hell is going on?
After seeing off the Lionheart Knight Henry, Zhang Wei found Samantha and asked her what the odds were for the Brave Finals.
"Why do you suddenly care about this?" Samantha asked confused.
Zhang Wei told Samantha about the visit of Henry the Lionheart Knight.
Samantha understood immediately. She made a reassuring gesture and said, "Don't worry, I know what to do. I'm the best at maximizing benefits without causing trouble."
"By the way," Samantha called Zhang Wei.
"What's wrong?" Zhang Wei was puzzled.
"It's okay. I've just been a little panicked lately. I feel like something's going to happen in Huai'en Town, but I haven't had the time to go back and take a look."
"Didn't you say that there are no relatives or friends over there, only enemies?" Zhang Wei suddenly worried that he might accidentally do something bad with good intentions. To put it bluntly, he used the town of Huai'en as a target to eliminate hidden dangers for Samantha and avenge her.
"No, I was just wondering if those bastards were taking advantage of the opportunity to seize my property. After all, I haven't been back for a long time. Even though it's just a shabby house and a shabby store, I would rather burn it down than let those bastards get away with it!" Samantha got angry when she mentioned this. If she hadn't been tricked, she would never have left the town of Wynne and went to the town of Bourne to poach people at the risk of being beheaded.
"Oh, don't worry, I will give you a surprise." Zhang Wei said and then he returned to Samantha, kissed Samantha on the forehead and left.
"Damn it." Samantha blushed and continued to do her own thing.
The 21-day rest period passed quickly, and the much-anticipated final moment ended with Zhang Wei's team surrendering in seconds!!!
Both official and private betting platforms collapsed.
What made many spectators explode was that Zhang Wei's team left Jinhou Town as soon as possible under the pretext of being summoned, and arrived at the royal capital after passing through Tiprano City and Antiphis City.
Many unhappy people, through various channels and methods, either went to Wangdu in person or entrusted people from Wangdu to block Zhang Wei. They were not going to collect debts, but simply wanted to throw a few rotten eggs at Zhang Wei, the bastard, to vent their dissatisfaction.
However, they were all disappointed because Zhang Wei disappeared not long after arriving in Wangdu, and no one knew where Zhang Wei and his team went.
Dragon City, the Duke of Longyi’s Mansion.
Zhang Wei, Samantha, Qian Yuanyuan and Kida Xiangzi are currently in the reception room of Duke Longyi, formally meeting with Duke Longyi. Although according to the laws of the kingdom, Duke Longyi is not Zhang Wei's leader, the same thing applies: the laws of the kingdom are the laws of the kingdom, and the actual situation is the actual situation. Zhang Wei still has to follow the order and first meet with Duke Longyi, then with Marquis Lazar, and finally with Count Chaudhry. Only then can he take over the Viscount Rosales' territory with the support of the three leaders, right?
Duke Longyi's attitude towards Zhang Wei was so-so. After all, in his previous life, Duke Longyi had shown Zhang Wei his hidden ambitions in order to win him over. In this life, facing the viscount who was parachuted from the royal family, Duke Longyi was naturally on guard like a fortress.
Because of Duke Longyi's somewhat cold attitude, Marquis Lazar did not even meet with Zhang Wei and his party.
Zhang Wei was not angry. After paying all the respects, he set off for Chaudhry City.
Count Chaudhry's attitude was obviously much better. After learning that Zhang Wei had left Laza City, he calculated the time and waited at the city gate to greet him in advance. Apart from anything else, Count Chaudhry knew that even if Zhang Wei was a thorn sent down by the royal family, he, as Zhang Wei's direct leader, had to maintain a good daily relationship.
"Don't worry, Xiao Zhang. I've already given instructions to Rosales. You can go there without worry. If you feel uneasy, you can ask for as many knights and soldiers as you want."
"My Lord Count, thank you very much. This is a little gift for the Countess. Please accept it." Zhang Wei handed a magic bag that had not recognized its owner to Count Choudhury.
"Give it to the lady." Count Chaudhry handed it to the maid without checking it and asked the maid to pass it to the Countess.
Zhang Wei was a little embarrassed at this time, because the magic bag contained magic props that he had made after negotiating the conditions and that could only be used in the royal capital. They might not be valuable in the royal capital, but outside the royal capital, they would be priceless. If Count Chaudhry even took a look at them, he would be able to understand Zhang Wei's care and intentions.
Zhang Wei originally wanted to get closer to the Earl under the pretext of giving him gifts to pamper his wife, so he did not plan to give the Earl a separate gift. After all, if he gave them all, it would weaken the gift for pampering his wife. Now, it was embarrassing.
Zhang Wei had no choice but to have an awkward chat with the count for a few words, then he got up and prepared to leave.
When Count Chaudhry saw that Zhang Wei had not given him the gift for a long time, he realized that he might have handed it over too quickly. After all, Count Chaudhry was a shrewd man and did not suspect that Zhang Wei was ignorant.
At this time, the door of the reception room was pushed open, and Count Chaudhry's beloved wife, Jerasil Mai, walked quickly to Zhang Wei and gave him a very real hug: "My dear brother, you are the only one who loves your sister and doesn't miss your brother-in-law."
As Jielas Maiga spoke, she held Zhang Wei's face and kissed him on the left and right cheeks.
Zhang Wei felt a little "awkward" by the solid hug of Jera Maiga with H cup breasts just now, but fortunately, the two kisses made him relax again.
When Count Chaudhry saw his wife's reaction, he knew that Zhang Wei's gift touched his beloved wife's heart, and he immediately smiled with joy, even happier than when he received the gift himself.
Only then did Zhang Wei feel relieved.
The next day when he left the city for Rosales Town, Count Chaudhry not only brought his beloved wife out of the city to see him off, but also sent two teams of knights to escort Zhang Wei, to support Zhang Wei.
The previous afternoon, Count Chaudhry had sent the Deputy Knight Commander and several knights to Rosales Town in advance to pave the way for Zhang Wei.
When Zhang Wei arrived at Rosales Town, the former lord Rosales and the town officials had been waiting outside the city for a long time. Behind the officials were the townspeople who had heard the news and came to watch the excitement. The leader of the rebels in the previous life, Carola Chaney, was hiding in the crowd and watching quietly.
Corolla's rebellion plan had already progressed halfway, but now a runner-up in the brave man selection competition suddenly appeared to be the new lord. This change was not expected by the rebels.
What made Carola even more inexplicably shocked was that when Zhang Wei passed by her surrounded by the former lord and many officials, he actually looked at her.
Corolla knew clearly that it was not a coincidental eye contact, but Zhang Wei was looking for her in the crowd. Corolla's heart instantly became flustered. She didn't know why Zhang Wei was looking for her, so she quickly left the crowd and returned to her shop.
The reception ceremony went very smoothly and everyone was happy because Zhang Wei hired Rosales as chief consultant to continue running the Viscount's territory.
With the help of Zhang Wei, Kida Kaori obtained the position of vice president of the Adventurers' Guild of the Viscount. However, neither the Adventurers' Guild nor Zhang Wei wanted Kida Kaori to return to work at the Adventurers' Guild. So according to the power of the Viscount, Zhang Wei appointed Kida Kaori as the General Zhendong, but she is still a commander without troops at present.
Qian Yuanyuan was named General Zhennan, but he was still a commander without any troops.
"I don't want to be a general. What's the point of being a commander without any troops? You should give me some business to do." Samantha was afraid that Zhang Wei would give her a random general title, so she quickly said no.
"You are a housekeeper, why are you a general?" Zhang Wei said, and then thought about it. He seemed to be short of a tax collector. He looked at Samantha, then at Qian Yuanyuan, and then said, "We are still short of a tax collector. Who of you two will be the tax collector?"
"Yes, yes. I don't want to be a housekeeper!" Samantha jumped up and down in front of Zhang Wei with her hands raised.
Zhang Wei immediately realized that Samantha might be abusing her power for personal gain, but he didn't care about such a small matter, so he agreed with a smile.
"You're the best~" Samantha kissed Zhang Wei, and then couldn't wait to use her power for personal gain.
"Then I'll be the housekeeper." Qian Yuanyuan didn't care what she did, but it would be nice to be Zhang Wei's housekeeper.
"Hello, I have something to say. I am planning to set up a new department and call it Nightingale." Zhang Wei put his arm around Qian Yuanyuan's slender waist and said in Qian Yuanyuan's ear.
"You want to..." Qian Yuanyuan understood it immediately.
"Well, is there any difficulty?" Zhang Wei asked.
"It's not difficult. Samantha must want it too. There's nothing she doesn't like as long as she can make more money." When Qian Yuanyuan said this, she covered her mouth and laughed.
"You really don't treat me as an outsider..." Kida Kaori said and wanted to go out.
Zhang Wei called out to Kida Kaori and said, "I think we can have a good and in-depth discussion."
"Are you sure you're here, in front of her?" Mu Tian Xiangzi suddenly became playful and started teasing Zhang Wei...
