Lord Highlander

Chapter 1585: 1571. Relatives

Now that Suldak has come to the city of Bena, he has to visit Beatrice's father, Earl Gopher, for reasons of reason.

Beatrice was naturally very happy when she heard about this incident. The two left the Marquis Luther's Mansion in a magic caravan at noon, and walked west along the noble street. Although the Gopher family's manor is relatively luxurious It is a noble manor, but it is still some distance away from the Marquis Luther's mansion.

In the trunk of the magic caravan, Beatrice leaned against Suldak's arms, smilingly telling Suldak about the changes of her younger brother Harvey in the past two years.

Harvey Goeffeller's leather workshop in Bena City is currently mainly processing the hard armor leather of ghost-striped red ants, and the business is very good.

The Goeffler family has come out of the trough, at least able to maintain the dignity of a veteran nobleman. It is said that Harvey is planning to buy back the family territory recently. Unfortunately, those lands have been sold for decades, and the other party is not short of them. Money, no thought of selling at all.

The magic caravan drove into the tree-lined old manor. Surdak found that not only the gate of the manor had been repainted, but even the main road from the gate to the mansion had been re-paved with stone slabs. After the garden has been carefully pruned, Surdak can feel the garden art with a sense of age.

The manor's mansion has also been refurbished. Although it is not a major repair, at least some broken bricks have been repaired, and the brick joints have been outlined with cement to outline even gaps. The red tiles on the roof have been replaced with new ones.

The magic caravan stopped at the entrance of the mansion, and a butler opened the door from the outside. A group of young nobles and servants were waiting at the bottom of the steps, and Harvey was just standing in front of the crowd.

Suldak and Beatrice walked out of the carriage and hugged Harvey respectively. Then Harvey introduced the young nobles around him to Suldak, almost all of whom were from the Gopher family. The members, some of Harvey's cousins, were minor nobles, and some were mere knights.

When they saw Suldak, they all showed curious eyes.

Suldak remembered that when he married Beatrice, he didn't know that the Gopher family had so many relatives.

Harvey was obviously fatter, and his belly bulged out of the dress.

"Welcome back……"

Harvey said to Suldak with a smile, and then began to introduce the relatives behind him to Suldak.

Suldak was dizzy, but no one cared.

After walking up the steps, he saw Earl Gopher standing in front of the gate of the house. Suldak hurriedly took two steps, pulled Beatrice to the front of Earl Gopher, and walked towards him. military salute.

A group of young nobles behind them were chatting in a low voice, but everyone's eyes fell on Suldak.

"Come in and sit down." Although Earl Gopher didn't have a smile on his face, his voice was very gentle.

Beatrice was not favored by Earl Gopher, who once wanted to marry Beatrice to a wealthy businessman or an aristocratic family with better economic conditions in order to solve the debt crisis of the Gopher family. Unfortunately, at that time, Beatrice cared about Suldak and was unwilling to sacrifice herself for the sake of the family.

In fact, this kind of thing is very common among nobles. Beatrice's rebellion once made Earl Gopher very angry.

Even now, the relationship between father and daughter is still tense.

This time when Beatrice came home, Earl Gopher still didn't give Beatrice a good face. Beatrice just pretended not to see it, and walked into the hall on the first floor of the house holding Suldak's arm. , Suldak was by her side, which made Beatrice feel more at ease.

The furniture in the living room was still the same. Earl Gopher asked Suldak to sit beside him, and immediately a row of maids came up with various fruit juice snacks.

Other young nobles also surrounded them one after another. Some young nobles even secretly touched their little hands or grabbed their buttocks quietly when the maids passed by. They were very frivolous at a young age.

Count Goeffel looked at Suldak seriously for a while, and then said:

"I heard that you led an army to fight in the Warsaw plane?"

Suldak quickly said: "That's right! This time I took advantage of the war on the Warsaw plane entering a period of stalemate, so I obtained permission from the military department to return to Bena City to take family leave."

The members of the Goeffel family looked at each other in blank dismay. Many of them had never even heard of this word. It is really rare for a battlefield commander to have a vacation.

There is only one person who dares to do this at present——Duke Newman.

Harvey sat across from Suldak and asked curiously:

"Brother-in-law, I heard that you killed many evil spirits at Moyunling?"

Suldak and Beatrice sat side by side on a two-seater leather sofa.

In order to make herself look more dignified, Beatrice kept her waist straight even when she was sitting on the sofa...

Suldak leaned on the sofa cushion, and replied casually: "It is true that some evil spirits have been killed. Does your leather processing factory want to do some black devil leather business? Currently, I have some resources for this."

"The black-stripe magic leather involves the magic-stripe. My leather workshop doesn't have a magician, so I can't do this kind of delicate work."

Harvey declined without thinking.

Surdak was a little surprised, and said, "You can sell it at a leather business, but the current stock base of black magic leather is too large, and the price of this thing may be further reduced."

"The business of wearing armor is very good at present."

Harvey smiled, a lot of flesh accumulated on his face, his eyes were almost narrowed into a line, and then he said to Suldak: "If you still have unidentified black magic crystals in your hand, you can sell them to me. ?"

"Unidentified black magic crystal?"

"If you want to inherit your father's title, if you don't participate in the plane war, you must pay at least fifty unidentified magic spar to the empire to keep the title of earl."

Harvey confessed directly.

"I know that your business in Bena City has been doing well recently, and you should have saved some money in your pocket." After saying this, Suldak glanced at Beatrice, and then said : "This time... Beatriz specifically told me about your succession to the title, so this time I came here... I just happened to bring you some black magic crystals."

After speaking, under the gaze of a group of young nobles from the Gopher family, Suldak took out a small magic sealing box from his magic pocket.

Suldak reached out and lifted the lid of the box, and there were rows of neatly arranged black magic crystals inside. These black magic crystals were almost bigger than walnuts.

Although there are black magic crystals that are not marked with the mark of the logistics department of the military department, it means that these black magic crystals have not been formally firmed. This kind of magic crystals will only be exchanged for merit when they are brought to the logistics department of the military supply.

The other young members of the Goeffel family all looked at Harvey enviously, probably because they envied him for having a good brother-in-law, who saved his title with just one sentence.

Of course, this group of distant cousins ​​did not have this kind of treatment.

Many people may have seen the Black Magic Crystal for the first time, and they all gathered around.

Harvey quickly hugged the not-so-big magic-sealing box, just like this black magic crystal, the magic crystals in the box can almost buy a set of magic pattern structure.

Harvey glanced at Beatrice gratefully. His relationship with Beatrice was very bad. He didn't expect Beatrice to help him...

With such a large amount of money, Harvey Goeffler thought about it, and said to Suldak with grace: "Brother-in-law, I will buy these unidentified black magic crystals."

After saying this, Harvey realized that Suldak had pulled out five large boxes from the magic pocket in one go.

They were placed in front of the sofa, occupying a large space. Suldak lifted the lids of these large wooden boxes. The first box contained a stack of salamander leather armor. The patterns on the leather danced back and forth like flames, looking exquisite. Peerless, this kind of high-quality salamander leather appears one by one even in the auction house, and now Suldak actually packed a whole box.

The wooden box on the side contains a whole box of green horns on the head of General Evil Ghost. Each horn is almost two feet long, with a slight curvature. The taper is not too big, but it is extremely sharp. It is an excellent material for making curved swords.

The third box is filled with colorful stones. These are the rough stones of various gemstones. Without preliminary polishing, even if they are very transparent, they will not show any value.

The fourth box contains the bone armor of an evil spirit. It is difficult to make up a complete set of bone armor for this evil spirit.

The set brought by Suldak is not only complete, but also very good in appearance, very suitable for hanging in the corridor.

A lot of hay was stuffed into the fifth box. After Suldak pulled the hay away, a group of young nobles who watched were surprised to find that there were only three rows of medicine bottles inside. It is precisely these three rows of shelves that are almost filled with magic potion bottles the size of fingers.

On the top row is a whole row of secondary healing potions. Although this thing can't heal the injury quickly, it can save life. There are a full row of twenty potions.

However, the potion bottles in the second row are not healing potions, but secondary spiritual power potions, and there are also twenty bottles.

As for the magic potion on the third row of shelves, it was the light yellow power of the lion king magic potion.

Recently, in the noble circles, it is really rare to hear that someone will give a lesser healing potion as a gift.

How much are these gifts worth... Everyone present did not know, but everyone knew that the fifth box contained magic potions that even money could not buy.

Even Earl Gopher, who was sitting on the main seat, was a little surprised. He didn't understand why Suldak suddenly brought out so many boxes...

"At the beginning you were willing to marry your daughter to me, but I couldn't offer any decent gifts at that time. Now that I'm coming back from the Warsaw plane to visit relatives, of course I have to bring back some local specialties. I hope you like it." Suldak said The posture is very low.

Marquis Gopher nodded slightly. He knew that Suldak was not what it used to be, but he never thought that Suldak would send such a gift.

"I heard that the battle on the Warsaw plane has come to an end?" Earl Gopher asked.

"Yes, when I return to the Warsaw plane this time, I will launch a general attack on the evil spirit army on the Moyunling Highland," Suldak said firmly.

"We all know that the West Route Army has won several victories in the Warsaw plane. Those Bena officers who came back from Warsaw are often mentioned about you. I know that saying this may cause you some trouble, but no matter what, I still hope you Can select some young people with some potential to go to the Warsaw plane."

After Earl Goeffel finished speaking, he looked around properly.

Suldak nodded and promised: "Yes, if they pass my test, I will take them to the Warsaw plane."

The noble young people around gave out a series of cheers...

"Dark, what does the evil spirit look like?" Harvey asked curiously. He had just gone through the entire set of evil spirit's bone armor.

Suldak chuckled:

"You really want to know? Then go to the battlefield with me and see."

Harvey's complexion changed, his brows almost knit together, and he said quickly:

"...Forget it, I live very happily in Bena City, I would rather endure the sour smell of hard armor than go to the Warsaw battlefield."

Suldak leaned on the sofa and said with a smile: "Do you know that many nobles begged me to take them to the battlefield in the Warsaw plane."

Harvey was unmoved at all, and quickly argued: "But those nobles don't include me, I'm still very self-aware."

Suldak nodded with a smile, reached out and patted Harvey on the shoulder, and said to him, "You seem to have really grown up, at least you know how to avoid danger."

Seeing that Suldak did not continue to ask him to go to the Warsaw plane, Harvey said complacently:

"Yeah, in a few months, I'm going to be a father. It's not a good time to go out at this time..."

Suldak patted Harvey on the shoulder and said, "Congratulations then."

Suldak only had an afternoon tea in the Gopher Manor, and did not stay for dinner, so he left the Gopher Manor with Beatrice who showed some complaints.

"Why do you prepare so many gifts! And that box of black magic crystals, Harvey obviously wants to pay for it, why don't you agree?"

"How much are those gifts worth?"

All the way, Beatrice babbled on about these things.

Suldak could only wrap his arms around Beatrice's shoulders, and whispered into her ear, "You are not short of money, why bother about the value of the gift?"

"God sent you and Hathaway to me, which is the greatest gift to me. For this, I would like to give some feedback to your loved ones."

Beatrice's eyes were a little moist, but she was still a little angry.

All along, the thing she hates and dislikes the most is that Earl Gopher is going to sell her at a high price like a commodity...

Now Suldak obviously hopes to ease the relationship between her and her family. She should be grateful, but she just feels that there is something blocked in her heart.

She rested her head on Suldak's arms and said pettishly, "I don't need to please them anymore..."

The magic caravan was driving slowly on the street, and Beatrice's heart seemed to be wrapped in warm sea water. The dazzling sunlight outside the caravan came in through the glass windows, making her a little dizzy...
