Lord of the North

"That's right, it's the Star Stone." Jason looked at him expectantly, hoping he could hear good news.

"This kind of thing is of little value, and there are very few people who buy it, so we don't have any stock." Merchant Harder committed another act, and said with a laugh: "I don't know what you want this kind of stone for?"

I don't know what Jason wants the Star Stone to do. In fact, the Kyle Family Chamber of Commerce has some stock in other stores in the north, but he still directly says that he doesn't have it. He can't make a hasty decision before he understands Jason's purpose.

Businessmen like them understand the reason why rare goods can be lived in. He wants to maximize his profits.

"It's nothing, it's just that I like this kind of stone better." Jason smiled and said with a disappointed expression.

"In this case, I will ask someone to help you pay more attention." Hade said flatteringly.

"Then thank you, Director Hard, I won't disturb your business." Jason saw a hunter coming with some furs, and said to him.

"It is my honor, my lord, go slowly."

"My lord, he is lying to us."

After walking away, Lancelot said in a displeased tone, how could he not see the little girl in Harder's heart with his profound experience.

"Hmph, I know, but I don't know if the Kyle family behind him has the same attitude." Jason also sneered, this Hudd's temptation just now probably represents the attitude of the Kyle family behind him towards him.

However, he was not angry. It was certain that both sides had suspicions.

Lancelot was only annoyed because the director was lying.

However, Jason, who didn't trust the Kyle family very much, had to raise his vigilance again.

Originally, some knew well that Jason and Violet didn't get what they said on the surface, but they were singled out by a small supervisor like this. I don't know what Violet's expression would be when she knew about it.

Jason wants to use the help of the Kyle family to develop the territory, and gradually weaken the influence of the Kyle family here when it becomes stronger in the future, so as to firmly hold the ruling power of the Iron Fang collar.

He didn't regard the Kyle family as a sincere and reliable ally, because Jason knew that Violet's ultimate goal in contacting him was absolutely impossible to be that simple.

Why use him to open up the northern market, just fool the ghosts!

"Hey, the intrigue among the nobles for the sake of profit is really tiresome." Jason rubbed his forehead in distress. It's a pity that he has to deal with this kind of person for the rest of his life.

However, the good days of this idiot in charge of Harder are coming to an end. Once the casino plan takes shape, Violet and the family behind her will have to change their attitude and policy towards Jason.

And this guy who can't see the situation clearly will be taken out by the angry Violet.

If he just took out a little and handed it over to Jason, the situation would not be what it is now, and his cleverness on the surface worsened the relationship between the two parties.

Originally, he stayed in Iron Tooth Town for the convenience of conveying information for both parties, but he never thought that it would aggravate Jason's suspicion of them. It would be good if Hader was not used by Willett to light the sky lantern.

"Let's go, go back." No matter what, Violet will definitely help her find the star stone in the future, but the number may not be much.

The day passed like this, and Gareth rushed back in the middle of the night, and finally heaved a sigh of relief after learning that Jason was safe and sound from the guard at the city gate.

But it was too late for him to go to the castle to disturb Jason, so he decided to spend the night in the barracks now, and then go to plead guilty tomorrow morning.

In this way, Eve suffered again. She hadn't had a good night's sleep in the half month since she came out of Lucca, and she felt so pitiful.

"Are we really going to spend the night in the barracks again?" She looked at Gareth pitifully.

"Otherwise?" Gareth looked at her helplessly,

I can't help myself.

"Is there no hotel in this town?"

When Eve came in, she saw that the streets here were very clean. There should be a more comfortable hotel, right?

"The accommodation conditions in the barracks in Iron Tooth Town are much better than Bilbia." Gareth comforted the young lady who couldn't suffer much.

"What's more, the hotel here is not as good as the barracks."

Seeing her bitter face, Gareth had no choice but to say, "I'll make you a few more quilts tonight so you won't panic."

"Really?" She was pleasantly surprised. Although it was not as soft as her own big bed, it was much better than the previous resting conditions.

"real!"

Fortunately, there are many unused spare mattresses in the barracks. After Jason carried out military reforms, the treatment of these soldiers has improved a lot.

Early the next morning, Gareth took Eve to the castle.

After entering the castle, he saw Lancelot standing in the garden from afar.

"Lancelot, is your lord in there? I have something to ask your lord for." His tone was not very kind.

Eve on the side gave him a strange look. Usually, this guy is very gentle and refined. Why does he have such a bad attitude when he sees this guy?

It seems that this place is not as harmonious as imagined, that is to say, I have the opportunity to dig Gareth into my family?

"Your Excellency is having breakfast, please wait a moment." Lancelot didn't care about his tone, said lightly, and glanced at Eve curiously.

Well, he looks good and has a good figure. The young man is looking for a partner after a few months of going out?

Hearing that Jason was eating and Gareth stopped talking, just standing in front of Lancelot and waiting, the scene was very embarrassing for a while.

"This is?" Lancelot was still not annoyed, and looked at Eve behind Gareth.

"Hello, dear knight, my name is Eve Lyon, the daughter of Viscount Burt Lyon." Eve first made a lady's salute, and then introduced herself, without any carelessness towards Gareth on weekdays.

"Hello." Lancelot responded with a smile, but he didn't introduce himself, and he didn't intend to pursue Eve, so it didn't matter if he knew him or not.

"Your Excellency should have finished breakfast, please wait a moment." He saw a maid take out the tableware.

"Hey, who is this guy?" Eve asked gossipingly after Lancelot walked away.

"Lancelot." Gareth was reluctant to mention his name.

"What does he have to do with you? You seem to dislike him very much." Eve was very dissatisfied with his perfunctory answer.

"That's right, elder."

"..."

Jason was wiping his mouth after breakfast when Lancelot opened the door and walked in.

"Gareth is back with a woman." When he said this, his eyes were a little strange.

"Huh? Women?" Jason clearly had his attention elsewhere.

"Is that guy in love?" This was his first reaction.

"..." My lord's thoughts coincided with my own.

"Ahem, let them in."

Outside, Eve was still gossiping about Gareth and Lancelot, asking him very annoyed.

"Your Excellency, please go in." At this moment Lancelot came out to relieve him.

"Let's go." Gareth took a deep breath and said to Eve.

The three of them walked into the castle hall one after the other.

"My lord! Gareth is here to apologize!" After entering the door, Gareth fell to his knees under Eve's astonished eyes, untied the saber from his waist, and handed it to Jason.
