Ark Harbor.
In White Castle, a faint fragrance was floating in Ou Ban\'s study. It was a kind of spice that had spread from the empire. It was refined from a variety of plants and emitted a delicate fragrance after being ignited. It could calm the nerves. Ou Ban was looking at the latest territory briefing. It was a fixed period of time, and the various officers in the territory would form a brief local report to White Castle and hand it over to Ou Ban, allowing the Earl to control every move in the territory.
Of course, the changes in Allen\'s territory were the greatest, so Ou Ban\'s briefing was much longer than in other places. There was a lot of detailed data, clearly indicating the tremendous changes in Allen\'s territory this week.
Putting down the briefing, Ou Ban rubbed his eyebrows, and a large amount of data flashed through his mind. The butler, Mace, said politely, "Sir, would you like a cup of coffee to refresh yourself?"
"No need." Ou Ban shook his head and smiled, "This Allen is willing to spend a lot of money. He\'s only been back for about a week, and he\'s already made so many big moves, hey. "
"Baron Allen has always been capable." Mace echoed.
"He is indeed capable, and he is willing to invest. Look, he has poured a lot of resources into the Hungry Wolf Territory. Judging from this momentum, it is to support that territory in a short period of time. "
Mace frowned and said, "The territory under Duruf\'s jurisdiction is just a barren land. Why is Sir Allen so concerned?"
"So you\'re still a butler, but he\'s a Sir, and he\'ll go further in the future." Ou Ban smiled and said, "The Hungry Wolf Territory has good potential. Although it doesn\'t have a metal mine like Sunset City, it borders Dawn Castle. The soil environment and climate are similar. If used well, it will be a good farmland. If there is farmland, there will be food. If there is food, it will attract people. With people, why can\'t the territory develop? "
"Sir Allen took a fancy to this, so he increased his efforts to support the Hungry Wolf Territory\'s labor. When it is developed, it will become another granary outside Dawn Castle. Even if it is just a spare granary, there is no doubt about its importance. "
Matt smiled and said, "Sir Allen is really far-sighted."
"Indeed, and he has also greatly expanded the army. The most interesting thing is that he has also commandeered slaves."
"Slaves?" Matt was surprised: "Those dirty and rude fellows are also soldiers?"
"That's what's so special about Sir Allen. In his eyes, there were only objective, usable or unusable resources. There was no distinction between being a slave or a noble. Who knew what kind of environment he grew up in? However, it was undeniable that this move of his had indeed allowed his army to expand rapidly. The expansion of the army will bring many business opportunities, so you see, there have been many businessmen who have smelled the lovely smell of money recently and have begun to inquire about various news about Sir Allen's territory. "
As the master and servant were talking, the door was suddenly opened. An officer hurriedly ran in and said to Ou Ban with a flustered expression, "Not good, my lord. I just received news from Miss Jorah. Viscount Daniel suddenly sent troops to attack Bauhinia. Now, more than half of the villages and towns in the Bauhinia territory have fallen. It is expected that the unicorn army will be able to approach the main city by this evening at the latest. "
"What?" Ou Ban was shocked and stood up involuntarily, "Daniel? Are you sure it was Daniel? "
"Yes, my lord. Miss Jorah said so in the urgent report. She has decided to take the initiative to fight and not give the other party a chance to besiege the city. "The officer hurriedly said.
"Take the initiative to fight?" Ou Ban shook his head and said, "Do you know who the commander is? Is it Barnes or Daniel himself? If it is the latter, Jorah has no chance of winning. "
"I don't know about that. Miss Jorah didn't mention it."
"Then hurry up and investigate. Also, report to Jorah and tell her not to be careless. Beware of Daniel. He is a cunning fellow. Don't think about fighting him fair and square. "Ou Ban said anxiously.
After the officer went down, the count punched the table and said, "Damn it, did that bastard Daniel deliberately delay the negotiations for this moment? But why did he delay until now? "
"Wait …" Ou Ban suddenly gritted his teeth and said, "Grar! That bastard Glar must have taken Daniel's benefits, so he advised me to delay the negotiations. This bastard, if anything happens to Jorah, I will definitely not let you off! "
Ou Ban's face was filled with anger as he left the study. The butler, Mace, hurriedly followed and said, "My lord, what should we do now?"
"There's nothing I can do. I can only lead my own troops to the Bauhinia. I'm worried about Jorah alone."
"But my lord, if you leave, what if Daniel divides his troops to attack Ark Harbor?"
Ou Ban immediately stopped, his expression conflicted. Butler Mace suddenly slapped his forehead and shouted, "Baron Allen."
"What?"
'"You can ask Baron Allen to support Miss Jorah. He is the closest to the Bauhinia Collar. If you send troops from Dawn Castle, you will still be able to meet Miss Jorah before the unicorn army arrives. Moreover, Baron Allen has many experts under his command. With his help, the Bauhinia should not be in danger. "
Ou Ban nodded, "Looks like I'm really anxious. I actually forgot about Allen's trump card. You're right, Mace. I can't put out the fire from afar. Allen had to come to the rescue of this close fire. Hurry up and send an urgent report to Dawn Castle. Ask Allen to send reinforcements immediately. I'll be there soon. Tell Allen that as long as he repels Daniel, I will give him a satisfactory reward. If he can kill Daniel, then I will give him half of the income from Daniel's territory in the future! "
"One … half?" Mace looked at Ou Ban dumbfoundedly. How much was the benefit of a viscount's territory? Normally, there would be at least millions of taxes every year. The final estimate was that in terms of taxes alone, Allen wouldn't have to do anything, and he would be able to get two to three million yuan in dividends every year. If other benefits were included, the number would be enough to make one's eyes red.
"That's right, half. Hurry up. "Ou Ban urged.
Only then did Mace hurriedly go. Ou Ban heaved a sigh of relief when he saw him leave. Although the conditions he offered were tempting, they were at best inspiring Allen's morale. First of all, he didn't know if the commander of the army this time was Daniel. Secondly, even if Daniel personally took action, Ou Ban didn't think that Allen had the strength to kill this viscount. One had to know that Daniel had the strength of Level 25. His Origin Energy was powerful and he was experienced. No matter how he looked at it, it was not something a baron could match, even if Allen was already a baron of strength.
However, Ou Ban didn't know that Daniel's Origin Energy had already dropped by an entire level. Allen's true strength was not something that could be measured by the level on the surface.
