Before ascending to God, be a good lord

Chapter 140 138. Talking with Father and Son
The first meal that Rand returned to Rotor from Maned Wolf City was in the castle with his father and elder brother. All his cronies attended the dinner.

At the dining table, the subordinates toasted frequently to pay tribute to their benevolent and intelligent lord. Only Huck Galloping looked at Rand with an unspoken meaning in his eyes.

After the meal, Rand found his father Huck and asked him to go to the lord's room of the castle to have a heart-to-heart talk.

In fact, this room has been Huck’s bedroom for the past two weeks. Huck has met the Viscount Rothland here several times before, and now he has lived in it for another two weeks, but Huck knows in his heart that the owner of this house is Lan special, and he was just a guest.

"Father, I have to explain something to you." Rand made it clear as soon as he came up
"Hmm." Huck looked at his son and frowned.

"I want to train Wendy and the others to become magisters." Rand spoke calmly, as if it should be so.

"You... What are you talking about?" Huck always felt that Rand planned to monopolize a few people, but never thought that Rand wanted to protect a few girls to advance.

"Wendy and the others have very good qualifications. More than one person told me that they are born high-ranking people." With the confirmation of the big goblin, Rand is now more sure.

"Rand, do you know what you're talking about? It's because of their good background that you should quickly take over when they are low-level. When they are all high-level, who will care about you, a border viscount?" Now Ha Ke would not underestimate Rand like he did half a year ago, but he knew very well that Rand's level potential was up to senior knights.

"Father, I have no choice. I must be promoted to a high level, otherwise I will not be able to keep Yeqi City or Luo Teling."

"Lan..." Huck was once again shocked by his son's serious rhetoric,
"If we can't take Yeqi City, our hundreds of demon possessors will not be able to eat. If I take Yeqi City, I won't be able to advance to a higher level. All I do is make wedding dresses for others." Rand said as he spoke. , while recalling the various experiences in the royal capital.

"Let me tell you the truth, now the Baixiao family, the Lanlong family, the maned wolf family, and the Lan Yuan family are all looking at me like meat in a bowl."

"You are in the capital..." Huck looked at Rand with some distress, "What do they want you to do?"

"Let me meet more girls from their family." At this moment, Rant was thinking about the wives behind Li Qi, "I'm really afraid that I'll be single for too long."

"I think you're overthinking it. It's normal for nobles to marry each other." Huck couldn't keep up with Rand's train of thought,

"But what about after the marriage?" Lante asked back, "You are so weak and have so many knights, do you want to send you a high-level knight?"

"Uh" Huck gradually understood the key issue of Rand, the territory is large and the rank is low, which is the situation where everyone is innocent and guilty.

"So, instead of thinking about how to occupy the girls now, it's better to train them well now and make them high-level." Lante kept instilling his ideas into his father. "I know that my current resources can't attract the magister at all. Even if I can settle in Yeqi City, the resources will not be greatly improved, but I can't act blindly or not just because my current strength is not enough."

Although Lante was really afraid that the girls would really run away after becoming high-level, but as a traverser, Lante always had an inexplicable self-confidence. Dividends leave high-level talent, and these rands can't be said.

"However, you only have 4000 people now. I have been to the ruins of Yeqi City more than once. There are no 2 people there who can't function at all. But if there are tens of thousands of people, where can we get so much food to feed them?" Haha Ke listened to Rand's vision, and couldn't keep up more and more.

"That's why mining is necessary. Only by making full use of the surrounding resources can a large population be supplied."

"...Then what are you going to do?"

"Restore the salt mines, take down the iron mines, occupy the entire plain, and let the Benma tribe control all the barbarians"

"You..." Hearing that he was going to occupy the entire plain, Huck didn't dare to ask any more questions. He was so shocked by his son's ambition that he couldn't speak.

. . . . . .

In another room of the castle, Ben Call painted soundproofing maggils on the walls.

"Ben... Court..." Albert looked at Ben and said.

"Call me Ben, I'm an intermediate mage here." Ben looked at Albert with a smile.

"Then... that's fine"

"You have really suffered these years. You have to supervise the border and develop your family at the same time." Ben patted Albert on the shoulder kindly. He knew how difficult it was for Albert these years. The galloping young man who used to be able to talk eloquently in the face of legends is now a little bald.

"Where, my matter is nothing." Albert made up his mind and asked the mage.

"Ben, please tell me, can Rand really succeed in recovering Yeqi City?"

"I know, you are looking at the great situation of the family today, and you don't want it to fail in the end."

"Yes, I asked the people in Maned Wolf City to read that Lante's potential can reach up to a high-level knight at most, and it is difficult to reach the sky if he wants to break through, but no one in the family can replace Lante at present." Seeing Rand's potential, Albert was very entangled, "Could it be that we will hand over the credit to others in the future?"

"How is that possible? Someone who dares to take credit for the military will only become the enemy of all the knights." What I didn't say is that there are indeed people who are planning to take credit for Rand, and they have been stopped.

"But Lante is only an intermediate knight now, no matter what happens, he will not be able to become the master of Yeqi City."

"Don't underestimate your Rand's figure. It took two weeks. He has already caught the line of the Fairy Queen in the capital." Ben stood up and looked out the window, "20 black-scaled horses were exchanged for the Fairy Queen's kindness, good means."

"Queen...you mean Queen Teriana?" Albert's eyes widened. This was the second shocking news he heard today.

"Yes, that's the queen. Your family is very good at finding legends as their backing." The mage looked at Albert meaningfully, "With her care, are you still worried that Lante will not be able to advance to a high level. "

"I think what you should worry about the most is whether there are so many people in your family to manage the entire Yeqi City?"

. . . . . .

In Longya City in the middle of the night, Longtai Mountain stands like a black dragon's spine.

In the old Joya tavern on the plain below the mountain, a young man in a black blouse had been sitting for a long time.

"Sir, would you like a cup of buckwheat draft beer?" A young man walked over, followed by a middle-aged man.

"Oh, I don't drink buckwheat flavored ones, I only drink apple flavored ones." The young man in black carefully answered his name.

"Then do you want apples from the imperial capital, or apples from the south?"

"I want something from the Eastern Kingdoms."

The two nodded, indicating that they recognized each other's identity.

"what is your name?"

"Just call me J, this is K." The young man introduced himself later.

"Come from the imperial capital?"

"Yes, on behalf of the chief, this is the latest order" J immediately took out his own water bottle and poured the liquid in the bottle to the other party.

The young man in black raised his glass and drank it down, pondering the taste of it.

A few seconds later, he frowned and asked, "That's our greatest strength in the Frostwolf Forest, so let's spread it like this?"

"We can't help it. We were too passive about the things on the plain not long ago. If we can't muddy the situation now, our efforts towards the end of 20 will be completely in vain." J is also quite helpless about the message he conveyed.

"clear."

"You let that wolf make things more lively, and I will find a way to drag in the maned wolf from the northwest." J said before leaving.

"Then what if you meet that dark horse?"

"As long as it doesn't lead to a final lawsuit of death, anything will do."
