Chapter 231 Never be fooled by women

After a full day's journey, it was almost dusk, and Sanchahe Fort finally appeared in front of everyone's eyes.

Along the way, the mercenaries and militiamen who had just experienced a big battle were complaining.

But finally they returned to the vicinity of Three Forks Fort, and the work of this group of people was over. Those who died in the battle received allowances, and those who survived received rewards.

Naturally, the remuneration here refers to mercenaries, and ordinary militiamen do not receive much remuneration for military service.

For example, Knight Fossac from Iron Stone City left directly with his thirty-some mercenaries. It is not known whether he brought so many people in total, or if only these people were left dead.

"The location is really good," Li Qi couldn't help but sigh as he looked at the Sancha River.

Although it is not as reliant on water and rich in products as Shuijian Land, the conditions for water transportation in the Sancha River are also good, and there are rich mineral resources. The overall conditions are very good, and you can easily live a good life without much effort.

type.

In some villages along the way, you can see that people live a leisurely life, which is completely different from that of the Porcupine Leader. People in the Porcupine Leader work in an orderly and busy manner. Although they earn more, their lives are also more tiring.

It's just a matter of opinion which kind of life is better.

Li Qi was willing to stay, firstly because of Steven's strong invitation, secondly because he wanted to talk about waterway exchanges and use the road to open up trade routes in the future, and thirdly because Phillip and others had not left yet. Li Qi was very interested in Phillip and the other five.

Extraordinary people are very interested.

It would be better if we could learn the identity of the red-haired wizard from them, but it's a bit difficult at the moment.

The gates of Fort Three Forks are open.

A man who looked exactly like Steven came out. After saying a few words to Steven, he walked towards Li Qi and others.

"Thank you very much for everyone's help, the Linsen family will keep it in our hearts!"

This person should be the Baron of Three Forks, Hawkwood Linson.

Li Qi was not deeply impressed by him. Among the dozens or hundreds of noble families in the East Gorge, there are many families like the Linsen family that are somewhat famous but have no characteristics.

As a representative, Philip stepped forward to speak, worthy of the Midnight Sun.

Looking at the eyes of the accompanying little maids, it was clear that they were fascinated by Philip.

Li Qi and other nobles dismounted and handed their horses to the accompanying retinue.

Enter the castle.

The Three Forks River Fort is about the same size as the Porcupine Fort, but the architectural style is slightly different. After all, the Porcupine Fort has to consider the sea breeze and other issues, but the Three Forks River Fort is shielded by the Pig Ridge Valley, so there is no need to worry about typhoons, and the walls are not very high.

.

The open-air courtyard was used to park carriages and allow soldiers to rest.

The nobles will be led to the inner castle by the servants arranged by the butler. There will be personal servants to help them wash their bodies.

Li Qi refused this benefit, either because he was shy or embarrassed, or simply wanted to take a quiet bath and relax for a while to relieve the fatigue during this period.

Although an extraordinary person is not afraid of the cold, it is still very comfortable to take a hot bath when winter comes, and he will never refuse to enjoy it.

The world is so poor in terms of entertainment that if he doesn't enjoy the good things, he should move to a monastery instead of living in a castle.

He closed the door to the room, and the keel armor he took off had already been given to Carrot, and his subordinate Carrot would clean it, and it would be maintained by the blacksmith after returning to Porcupine Territory.

After soaking his body in the barrel, Li Qi let out a long and comfortable breath.

"Ha~"

I haven’t enjoyed it for long yet.

Zhiyo~

The door suddenly opened, and Li Qi suddenly opened his eyes and looked at the person who entered.

"Miss Agnes?"

Are you here to challenge my weakness again?

If you do this when you first arrive at your fiancé's house, Lord Steven's head will be very green. At least... you have to do it slowly, like in the middle of the night?

"Lord Li Qi," Agnes bit her lip and said, "I want to borrow some money from you."

Huh, it turns out I'm not riding on myself.

Li Qi breathed a sigh of relief.

But Li Qi didn't think it was feasible to borrow money.

You can make my money, but you can't borrow my money!

"Maybe you can wait until I finish taking a shower?" Li Qi tried to say, "We'll talk about it later."

"Let me wash it for you." She came over.

"Need not!"

Li Qi quickly stopped him. If someone from the Linsen family saw him, he wouldn't be able to tell.

He immersed his body in the bathtub, with only his head exposed: "What do you want to borrow money to buy? Or do you have debts?"

Will Leopold be poor? Even if he is a side branch, with the wealth of the Golden Thorn Sword family, as long as the family members are not fools, they can make a lot of money by doing any business.

"Everything I brought was stolen," Agnes said with a sad expression: "And many adults helped a lot this time, I want to reward them."

Li Qi didn't understand even more. If you need money for remuneration, just go to your fiancé. He lives in Linsenberg and doesn't have much money, but he can still pay for it by paying a few hundred gold a day.

Seeing that Li Qi had been indifferent, she knew that her excuse would not be recognized, so she had to say bluntly: "I want to owe you some debt and then become your friend."

Agnes didn't believe that Li Qi didn't understand what he said. Maybe he thought that the two parties were already familiar with each other and there was no need to talk falsely.

As early as in Eastport City, Agnes had heard of the reputation of Philip of the Midnight Sun, but Philip came with four people to rescue him, but was captured instead.

But it was Baron Porcupine who single-handedly turned the tide.

Not only did he defeat Anjin's troops head-on, but he also rescued himself, Philip and others.

After this experience, Agnes has seen one thing clearly: her fiancé's family cannot protect themselves, or even themselves.

But now Agnes has no other choice but to marry to the Three Forks Fort. If she had not had beautiful red hair, it would never be her turn to marry to the Three Forks Fort.

But if he can maintain a friendly relationship with Baron Porcupine, who has strong soldiers and strong strength himself, he may have an extra helper when he encounters trouble in the future.

And Porcupine Collar is not too far from Three Forks River Fort.

The fastest way to bring two strangers closer together and make the other person miss you is to make him fall in love with you and to be in debt to him.

Agnes tried to have an in-depth communication with Li Qi, but found that he was very upright and a person who would never be confused by women.

This kind of person is very rare among nobles. So far, she has only seen Philip of the Midnight Sun be so upright. She did not expect Baron Porcupine to be equally upright.

In other words, he is not honest enough, but he is not attracted by beauty.

Since falling in love with yourself doesn't work, the only choice is to go into debt.

"You owe me money and then become my friend. What's the logic of this?" Li Qi thought to himself: "You don't want to be my friend, you want to be my grandfather."

But he roughly understood what Agnes was thinking at this time.

A person who is extremely insecure.

She is now in a state of extreme distrust towards Fort Three Forks. Only by rescuing her and knowing all her scandals can she become more like a "one of her own" who can be relied on.

She can reach her potential when her life is threatened.

But when it was safe, instead of relaxing, she fell into endless fear and anxiety.

Of course, it can also be understood that Agnes simply wants to meet a powerful baron as an ally, and this is how the connection between the minor nobles came about.

Wife and children sleep together, you sleep with mine, I sleep with yours, and we become good friends.

"I think I can change my mind," Li Qi said: "There are many ways to be friends. I am very interested in the minerals of the Three Forks, and the porcupine leader's caravan also wants to go through the Three Forks. Maybe we can become a business partner."

friends."

"Steven admires you very much," Agnes said: "I think he would like to be a business friend with Porcupine Castle."

Agnes finally turned around and left, and Li Qi breathed a sigh of relief.

It's not that he doesn't dare to indulge, it's just that he needs to be careful about who he indulges in. Not every noble lady can get into bed with him.

As you all know, I am the one who recommends the most, and I like all recommendations. So yes! I made a small recommendation on Monday. Although it is a small recommendation, it has been a month of hard work. The recommendation is hard-earned. Let’s all be happy together.
