Chapter 694 683. Face-to-face lectures
In the largest dining room in the Marquis Luther’s Mansion, the surrounding walls are covered with gorgeous wallpapers, the magic wall lamps exude warm yellow light, and the vaulted dome in the room is covered with colorful murals, which are popular on the roofs of many buildings in the Green Empire. Draw pictures of Yunshangcheng or high-level parliamentary paradise, Dragon Cliff, etc., and the glass windows of the restaurant are drawn with lace and white gauze curtains.
A row of maids stood by the wall with trays in their hands. Seeing Marquis Luther enter the restaurant, the butler in the restaurant quickly waved for the maids to come up, set the tableware in front of Marquis Luther, and chose the pre-dinner rum and appetizers, etc. This series of choices... Had it not been for Beatrice's soft-spoken introduction, Suldak would have simply chosen the same choice as Hathaway.
If that's the case, I'm afraid he can only drink a little milk and mushroom soup for dinner...Because Hathaway wants to keep her figure, she basically doesn't eat anything at night, and Beatrice is almost the same.
Suldak’s food intake is much larger. He almost eats a large piece of steak and smoked fish, as well as a large plate of vegetable salad, white bread with butter and so on.
When the dishes were served one after another, Suldak realized that only Luther and he had such a large amount of food in the front part of the table. The dishes in front of the ladies basically only had a sweet soup, and Marquis Luther also had a big appetite. Well, there is a large piece of fresh red meat steak on his dinner plate, which looks only medium-rare. The steak is only cooked with a thin layer on the surface. When the knife cuts it, some red blood seeps out of the bone china dinner plate .
There was no way to see what kind of monster meat it was, so Marquis Luther cut the steak into four with a knife, stuffed it in his mouth and chewed hard.
"If young people want to gain strength quickly, they need a good appetite. Only with a good stomach can they quickly absorb the energy needed by the body from these flesh and blood..." Marquis Luther sat on the main seat, speaking to Sulda K said kindly.
He ate very fast, as if this was a habit in the army, and he had already eaten two large steaks while speaking.
Suldak ate a piece of meat steak, and felt the thick earth elemental breath entering his limbs through his stomach and intestines. His body was extremely sensitive to magic elements. Just before the earth elemental breath dissipated, the countless The lit nodes seemed to generate a slight suction, continuously sucking in the earth elements wandering in his body, but none of the earth elements dissipated from his body.
It was a strange feeling. Suldak's body was like a shriveled hydrogen balloon. These earth element breaths slowly filled into Suldak's body and were absorbed continuously. Suldak The breath in the body also continued to expand.
It seems that Marquis Luther also felt this change in Suldak. He signaled the butler not to serve the food according to Suldak's order, but continued to serve him this kind of monster steak. Suldak even ate it. Only then did Si Kuai realize that the earth element breath was filling his body, almost out of his control, and a double-faced, four-armed demon **** was about to emerge behind him.
The others at the dinner table looked at Surdak with horror, as if he had done such an amazing thing.
"Good guy, the strength of the peak period actually eats four pieces of white rock rhinoceros ribs in a row, and the earth element breath will not overflow from the body. If I didn't know in advance that your awakened magic perception is a sacred element, I would definitely think you The power of the earth element you have mastered!" Marquis Luther said with admiration as his eyes fell on Suldak, his eyes were piercing.
The butler was about to serve another rib, but was stopped by Marquis Luther: "Okay, let's change him to other dishes. The earth element in his body is completely saturated, so it's useless to eat as much white rock rhino ribs."
Suldak was also secretly surprised when he sat beside Hathaway. It was not that he had never eaten monster meat before, especially salamanders and wind wolves, but he did not have such a strong feeling.
"In addition to high-grade monster ingredients, there must be advanced cooking methods so that these precious ingredients can be used to their full potential." Marquis Luther said to Suldak.
Mrs. Mabel was sitting under Mrs. Marianne, and her three daughters were quietly sitting beside her. At this time, they also secretly looked towards Suldak, and when they looked at Hathaway, their eyes almost concealed their jealousy. I couldn't help it, I could only lower my head frequently to control my emotions.
Other members of the Luther family sat on both sides of the table. The middle part of the table was almost filled with middle-aged people, and almost all the young people sat at the end. They were obviously only the nephews of Marquis Luther. They were whispering at the end of the table, as if the topic was also Discuss Suldak.
At this time, Marquis Luther stood up from the throne.
He raised his hands, as if to embrace the air in front of him, and there was a sudden silence in front of the dining table.
All eyes were on him.
He said to everyone at the table:
"All of you here are members of the Luther family. You are my elders, brothers, and nephews. Maybe you think that Suldak is about to become Hathaway's husband and my son-in-law. That's why I'm so partial. And support him, here, I want to say to everyone, I treat all members of the Luther family equally, whoever has ability, who has potential, who can create more glory for the Luther family, I will favor him and support him."
"Some people may say that I can't find an opportunity to express myself, so tonight, I will present this opportunity. I believe everyone already knows that the Luthor Legion is about to enter the Bailin plane to garrison, and this time Luther The Ser family will share half of the defense area of the Bailin plane, such a large area includes 20 satellite towns, and every member of the Luther family will have the opportunity to express themselves when they enter the Bailin plane."
"If any of you have entered the Bailin plane and participated in the garrison mission, you can bring it up now, and I will absorb you into the Bena Legion, but don't think that you will be domineering in the Bailin plane, I will You are unified into the border towns of the Bailin plane, I hope you can open up some territory for the family and yourself, and come back to become the lords of the younger generation of the family!"
"Who wants to join the Bailin plane, you can propose it now, or you can find me in private after the meal, welcome at any time!"
The nephews of the Luther family did not answer, and the atmosphere at the dinner table was very dull for a while.
Mrs. Marianne sat beside Marquis Luther, raised her hand and pulled his arm, let him sit down, and then said to Marquis Luther: "They are still young and have not participated in much experience, so don't be so strict with them. , It’s good to give them some opportunities, but don’t let them go to the most dangerous place all at once.”
Mrs. Marianne's fair words immediately made several young people of the Luthor family at the table look grateful.
She glanced at Suldak again, and said casually: "Dak's situation is different from theirs. He has been honed on the frontline battlefield of the Warsaw plane for four years before he is what he is now. I heard that you are in Warsaw Plane, once led Hathaway to escape from a group of evil spirits, and your strength was not as good as those evil spirits at that time, so is it the most dangerous situation you have ever faced?"
Suldak nodded slightly, and whispered about his experience in the heavy armored infantry regiment.
Hearing Mrs. Marian and Suldak discuss the past, Hathaway and Beatrice felt the deepest. They grabbed his hand under the table at the same time, and the eager eyes in their eyes made the other young people at the table People are especially jealous.
After dinner, Marquis Luther continued to call Suldak to discuss the current situation in the Bailin plane in the war room. At the same time, he also wanted to disclose to Suldak what the Luther family had in the Bailin plane.
Marquis Luther stood beside the map, pointed to a black dot on the top of the map, and said to Suldak:
Hearing what Marquis Luther said, Suldak probably also understands that Dodan Town is the most chaotic and dangerous one among these satellite towns, otherwise he would not send a Construct Knights to sit here.
Marquis Luther continued to say to Suldak:
"Originally stationed here is a Constructed Knights Order of the Langdon Family, who have been suppressing the local aborigines for the past few years, but they have lived in this land for thousands of years and are deeply rooted in this land. Even if they are stationed in a Constructed Knights Order, they haven't continued to open up much land to the north in the past few years. If you continue to walk two hundred miles north along this wetland, you will arrive at Invercargill at the northern end of the Bailin Plane. Monster Forest."
He picked up a baton and pointed to the blurred mountain area on the map.
Suldak nodded again and again, indicating that he had written it down.
Marquis Luther continued: "At present, it is the most extensive cold zone forest in the known monster forest of Bailin plane. Most of the monsters there are ice and earth monsters. The resources are very rich. There are probably very few plane wars, and there are only a few ways to make a profit: first develop a business group, take the caravan wherever it settles, and transport the local products and resources back to the Grimm Empire for profit. "
Suldak knows this kind of business group model. Compared with the garrison on the plane, the caravan model is more suitable for the plane war.
Many caravans like to take risks and follow behind the army. As long as the war is won, they will seize a lot of spoils. If the army wants to continue fighting, they will sell these spoils to the merchant group at the lowest price.
I have to say that war is the most profitable industry, but there is a premise that you must win.
"The second is to open up new territories and develop and build on your own territory." Marquis Luther said.
This is something that almost all noble lords have to do.
If you want to be promoted to the title, you must have enough achievements and a territory that matches your status.
In fact, this is what Marquis Luther wanted Suldak to do. He didn't want a noble baron to marry his precious daughter at the wedding, so he spared no effort to help Suldak form a private army.
Marquis Luther continued to introduce: "The third is to occupy mines in unexplored areas. Mining is the most profitable industry. As long as those raw ores are transported back to the Grimm Empire, they can continuously absorb nutrients from the plane. I know There is a sulfur mine in your territory, I believe you must be deeply touched by how profitable the mine is."
Suldak nodded.
Currently, the development of Wall Village and the construction on the barren land are inseparable from the financial support of the sulfur mine in Suldak.
Marquis Luther said: "The last one is to enter the World of Warcraft Forest. No matter hunting Warcraft or collecting magic herbs, you will have a good income. At present, there is a large market in the Grimm Empire, especially for precious materials and magic beasts. Magic herbs. So if you have a chance, I suggest you go to the Invercargill Forest of Warcraft to take a look."
The last one, Surdak has not tried.
Many adventure groups and mercenary groups use this as a means of livelihood.
"In addition, according to the information obtained by the family, there is an open-pit iron mine 60 kilometers north of the town of Dodan. It is not clear how many reserves there are, but I hope you can make the area north of the town of Dodan If you occupy it, you will not only have a fertile territory, but also occupy a mine vein, and if you can develop this mine, it may be able to support you with greater military expenses." Marquis Luther pointed to a place above the town of Dodan Location, very seriously.
Suldak did not expect Marquis Luther not only to choose the garrison location, but also to investigate the surrounding situation thoroughly.
Knowing that there is an iron ore vein here, Suldak knew that he could not refuse no matter what, and the town of Dodan was indeed very suitable for him.
At night, Suldak stayed in Luther Marquis' mansion.
Unfortunately, Hathaway didn't pull Suldak to appreciate her boudoir.
Mrs. Marian specially sent a maid to take Suldak to bed. Before falling asleep, she couldn't see Hathaway and Beatrice.
The aristocratic and wealthy families still have very strict restrictions on young unmarried couples before marriage, and this matter has risen to the level of family glory.
The next day, after Suldak met Chester the Great Swordsman, the deputy head of the Luthor Legion, Suldak's cavalry battalion officially entered the Luthor Legion.
In the next few days, Suldak also followed the cavalry battalion cavalry, eating and eating in the barracks.
In order to allow these recruits to adapt to the battlefield this morning, Suldak and Andrew formulated a very strict training plan for the cavalry in the past few days.
Daily training, since half of the cavalry battalion is young recruits, in order to put their thin bodies on heavy armor this morning, they have to undergo high-intensity physical training in the morning, basic combat skills and riding training in the afternoon, and evening training. It is really miserable for these recruits to go to the literacy of the tactical formation.
Fortunately, the recruits in the barren land grew up in a difficult environment since they were young. They can endure hardships more than others, have strong perseverance and resilience, and if their physical fitness is not up to standard, they will strengthen their physical training without complaint.
Suldak added some nutritious meals such as meat, eggs, poultry, etc. in addition to the standard meals of the Luthor Legion.
After a brief seven-day rest in the barracks outside Bena City, the Luthor Legion officially entered the Bailin plane.
