They all call me master.

Chapter 290 Three foxes!

After saying "Wait a minute," the envoy from Marquis Einhas stopped.

"Is this a competition or a duel?"

Arthur asked with a smile on his face.

"Of course it's a duel - we don't have a life-or-death feud. A duel will only damage the honor of my nobles."

Carlal looked like it was natural.

"Well, since it's a competition, where are your chips?

Gemter just offered the bargaining chip of "allowing my fleet to pass tax-free when passing through the West Berlin port". You can't offer similar bargaining chips, right? "

Arthur nodded slightly and spoke softly, but these words made the envoy of Marquis Einhas change his expression.

"of course not!

However, the stakes are high and I need to think carefully! "

Saying these words, the envoy of Marquis Einhas sheathed his sword, turned around and mounted his horse again.

Everyone saw the nobleman's embarrassment and stern expression.

There was a hint of sarcasm and ridicule in everyone's eyes.

But Jimt is different.

Jimt, who kept smiling, had surprise in his eyes.

The scene before him was different from his plan.

In his plan, at this time, Kalal had already started a duel with Arthur out of anger, and he could start the next plan - if Kalal won, he would protect the remaining people in the team. Get on the line with the Count of Nanlos. If Arthur wins, he will continue to show his admiration and protect the face of Marquis Ainhas with the 'knight image' he showed before.

Simply put, no matter who wins, he will get corresponding benefits.

only……

Jimt looked at Arthur who was smiling, and then at Kalal who mounted his horse and left. Thinking about what Arthur had just said, his heart suddenly moved.

The baron's son and the marquis' son-in-law guessed what Arthur wanted to do.

Immediately, Jimt's face showed another smile.

This is a brighter smile than before.

The other person walked up to Arthur.

"Arthur, I won't interrupt you today.

Tomorrow afternoon, I will go to the appointment on time. "

With that said, Jimt performed a knight's salute and turned to leave.

The two noble cavalrymen left as neatly as they came. However, this neatness was not praised by anyone in the convoy. Many people curled their lips with disdain on their faces.

Edwin even said directly——

"Ha, just pretending."

This evaluation was immediately recognized by everyone in the team.

They all saw the performance of the envoy from Marquis Einhas just now.

Completely consistent with their usual impression of nobles.

As for the emissary from West Berlin?

He seems to have a good relationship with Arthur.

That would be considered half one of our own.

Arthur glanced at everyone in the convoy calmly, sighing slightly in his heart.

There is no doubt that Jimt and Kalal were successful.

A person who takes advantage of a disadvantaged identity, disguises himself, and makes everyone think he is a fool.

One is to use the stereotyped impression of the world to disguise himself and confuse the world with his arrogant appearance.

But actually?

As cunning as a fox!

Looking at the backs of the two people leaving one after another, Arthur seemed to see two foxes leaving, especially Karar who left first and deliberately slowed down, while Jimt who left behind deliberately speeded up.

'A new round of mutual testing is about to begin!

Unfortunately, there was no way to see it with my own eyes. '

Arthur squinted his eyes and sighed slightly in his heart.

As for the content of the two young nobles testing each other?

It's not hard to guess. In order to facilitate communication, we must start the topic with him, and then delve into the heritage of the "Hilt Tower" hidden in the "Ymir Manor", but I will never waste any more time on this and will definitely come back to him again. It's not that Arthur is being sentimental, but that he believes Jimt is smart enough to figure out why he was so 'honest' just now.

Likewise, he also believed that Kalal would make the right choice.

for--

Benefit!

His existence is of greater benefit to the two of them!

Even if the legacy of the 'Shilt Tower' in 'Ymir Manor' exists, it is not within the reach of Jimt and Kalal.

With any harvest, they must hand it over to the Marquis of West Berlin and the Marquis of Einhas standing behind them.

But it's different here!

With Jimt and Karar covering him up, the Marquis of West Berlin and the Margrave of Einhas would not really 'note' him at all, and would only denounce their defeat, although to some extent they would lose some favor. , but the two of them will get real benefits that belong to them——

Who wouldn’t want to take a share in the tax-free fleet?

Especially this coastal trade route starting from Sisi Port in Nanlos to the old lion port of Kilgore in the inner bay, the territories passing through belong to only three nobles: Margrave of West Berlin, Margrave of Einhas, and Earl Bethe.

When two of them are exempt…

Is the remaining family still far away?

He believed that since the Marquis of West Berlin and the Marquis of Einhas had guys like Gemt and Carral, then the next stop on the route, the Count Bethe's, would also have two people like them who had the right to inherit but were not ranked enough. At the front, a guy who has to find another way out if he can't inherit the title.

Such a guy, once he learns about the duty-free fleet, he will definitely join in eagerly.

Even willing to pay the corresponding price for it.

And when the ports of the three territories he passed through all provided tax exemptions for his fleet, he had enough leverage to attract more people to the water.

Tax-free, meaning no inspections.

No inspection means more room for operation.

For example, selling the arms in the 'Ymir Manor' to the Earl of Nanlos at a 'low price' is enough once in a lifetime.

Arthur swore that he definitely didn't do this because he felt distressed.

he is the one……

I just don’t want to be hindered by others.

He wanted to leave more escape routes for himself.

This was also the fundamental reason why he didn't take action directly when he discovered something was wrong with Jimt. For Arthur now, he needed several allies outside of South Los.

It can't be too strong, nor can it be too weak.

Just need to be able to hold up the scene.

Otherwise, it would be too ambitious.

'With the 'funding' of Jimt and Kalal, one fleet can quickly become three, or even more - when the fleet flying my flag can appear in Nanlos every day, The first step of 'Mr. Five Exchange' is now complete.

What is lacking now is the 'Miss Qiu Security Company'!

Maltz, where are your friends? '

Arthur was looking forward to the friend who Maltz said was proficient in training 'suicide squads' - he needed the other party to train elites for him.

Likewise, an ordinary team that is 'attractive' is also needed.

Just in the name of 'merchant ship guard'.

On the outskirts of Nanlos, a manor can be built specifically to train this team.

Of course, it would be best to find two uninhabited islands and hoard soldiers on a large scale... No, it is to escort ocean-going merchant ships. There is a port that belongs exclusively to the 'Kratos Family'.

As long as he obtains the title of 'Knight', he will have enough space to operate all this.

'got windy?

Am I afraid of the wind?

The bigger the storm, the more expensive the fish! '

Arthur's eyes narrowed slightly, his black eyes flashed brightly, and the corners of his mouth turned up unconsciously.

However, the moment he turned around, everything returned to its original state.

The young 'psychic' knew very well that that was what was to come.

Now?

He has an extremely important thing to do!
