Chapter 322: Revisiting Orange Front Harbor
The "Black Crow" Butler Keynes has a special identity. He is the nephew of the Duke Cairns and the only son of the duke's dead brother. He is extremely proud and unpopular. He was placed in the north as the lord of the "Wind Crow" territory to demonstrate the friendship between the Duke Cairns and the Duke of Levire.
His symbolism is more than substantial. Now that someone's nephew dies in your territory, the problem will become extremely complicated once it affects the relationship between the Duke of Cairns and Duke Levire. I heard that Butler's dead father had a good relationship with the Duke of Cairns, and Duke of Cairns has always treated this nephew as a son.
The sudden incident instantly disrupted Bai Ye's deployment, and he had to delay the time he left Wells.
On the other hand, after the siblings negotiated, Yalian agreed to borrow (actually, it was a free gift) of 50,000 gold coins in Baiye, and both sides would conduct trade transactions every month to exchange their respective resources and manpower. This was considered as the official conclusion of the alliance, and Yalian would also notify the news as soon as possible.
Bai Ye has to provide a certain amount of arms to Wells for free, and in the future, he will send craftsmen to build a military factory in Wells. After the alliance, Wells is responsible for economic resources, etc., while Xuemanjing is responsible for the dissemination of technology and civilization.
As time goes by, the exchanges and cooperation between the two sides will gradually deepen, which is undoubtedly the best news for the current Xuemanjing. During the construction period, Wells will unconditionally support Bai Ye's series of measures.
After discussing this matter, Yalian planned to set off to Orange Front Harbor to pay tribute to Butler. After all, as a member of the Levi’s family, his neighbor should always make a statement after learning that he had died, and he could also inquire about the cause of Butler’s death.
On Bai Ye, he kept Nancy, Nolan and the black shadow, and only took Ge Ying to accompany Yalian to the Orange Fight Harbor, with Yalian's entourage and maid. He didn't tell Nancy that he would go to Wells in person, but was worried that someone would detect his movements and intentions. There were not many people here who knew him here, and it was just right to pretend to be a entourage.
Secondly, if he had the chance, he would also save the female pirate named Kasha. After all, the other party saved Nancy and her group. Regardless of whether she hated herself or not, the kindness would always be rewarded.
......
Stepping on the smooth deck of the Molias, Yalian couldn't help but sigh: "I really didn't expect you to build such a delicate canvas boat. It's hard to imagine how much advantage we would have in naval battles if the warships were so stable. By the way, this material is called water..."
"Cement, Lord Yalian." Ge Ying replied with a smile on behalf of Bai Ye. She was the one who was shocked for the first time.
Yalian "hummed" for a while and continued to say to Bai Ye: "So that's why you are still looking for those magicians? You are always very interested in these strange things, and this has been the case since childhood."
"I think the future effect of the magic weapon is definitely not smaller than that of arms. I have to ask you, the second sister." Bai Ye smiled. His predecessor did not accumulate any personal resources before his soul came. After leaving the Xueman Realm, he could only use the identity of the third son of Duke Livier and the Baron to deceive him. Once the other party didn't buy it, he would have no choice.
But Yalian was different. She studied in the Enlightenment School of the Royal Capital since she was a child, and then continued to study in the aristocratic college. The people she knew were all over the Oakley Kingdom, and many noble ladies from the classical aristocratic faction were classmates. After she was sixteen, she joined the army and went on expeditions, and there were many acquaintances of the Iron Blood Noble side.
As long as Yalian is willing to use these resources, Bai Ye can save a lot of trouble.
"Speaking of this, 'Black Crow' just got married, right? Who is his wife?" Yalian patted her head. The relationship between this neighbor was very bad with her, but the elders of the two families were still good friends. Butler's wedding a few months ago, Yalian went to congratulate him on behalf of the Levi's family.
Yalian thought for a long time and finally remembered his newlywed wife: "It seems that she is the daughter of a little nobleman in Wangdu. The family has no power, but I heard that she joined the church before coming to the "Windward Crow". I was very surprised at that time. Butler's guy is a typical machismo and hates the omnipresent church. Will his wife actually find a priest nun in the church?"
"Then is this nun now just being a widow?" Bai Ye said casually, and then he found that Yalian was looking at him with a very ambiguous and playful look.
He immediately understood that his second sister had been thinking a little bit, and quickly waved her hand and said, "Don't think it's all the time, I just think it's strange. Maybe his death is related to this woman."
Yalian laughed "punched" and rubbed Bai Ye's head affectionately. Seeing his panic, she felt very comfortable for some reason.
"No matter whether it is related or not, if this woman knows her, she should know that she cannot lead the fire to our Levire family. As for the pirate named Kasha, her life or death is not important, right?" Yalian curled her lips. In her opinion, it doesn't matter whether she saves Kasha or not, so what if she saves Nancy and others.
Of course, Bai Ye didn't say that Kasha and the Levi's family might have a big conflict, otherwise with Yalian's personality, she would probably have directly eliminated the roots. What he was even more curious about was why the news came from Kasha was the murderer who killed Butler.
Even if it was a pirate from the Sihai family who blatantly killed a lord of the territory, it would be too stupid. Besides, it would be fine if she escaped from the Orange Front Harbor, but she was caught, which sounded incredible.
If she was a reckless guy, how could she save Nancy and her group? Maybe there were some complicated internal reasons.
Because of this, Bai Ye may choose not to save Kasha. Heiying knows her, and Bai Ye doesn't want to bring Heiying over. If he sees Bai Ye with his own eyes and refuses to save him, it will inevitably make him feel disgusted.
The Molias sailed smoothly on the sea, but unfortunately no sea tribes attacked them this time. Otherwise, Bai Ye could have seen these dead but still moving sea tribes with his own eyes. Now the matter of possible miracles can only be entrusted to Yalian's men to do.
"There is the Orange Front Harbor in front." Yalian pointed at the front with her finger. The city was hazy in the rain looming. This was Ge Ying's second time, but Bai Ye, who came here for the first time, was amazed.
This city hidden in the rain looks quite beautiful. There are some scattered ships docked on the shore. When the huge canvas ships arrived, the soldiers on the docks quickly shouted and warned, but after seeing the rising black python flag, they immediately closed their mouths.
"Sir Yalian, let's go." Bai Ye made a "please" action.
Yalian burst out laughing, looked up and down at his outfit, and said with a smile: "This black python suit is quite suitable for you."
