i have a shelter.

"You managed the Duke's logistics very well." George said coldly, and then threw a letter at the countess's feet.

This behavior is probably not enough to be described as arrogant, it is simply rude.

After the black pearl knights saw it, they all pulled out their swords in anger, and the panic and fear that the templar knights in front of them had brought to them before were completely washed away by the anger.

Obviously, the countess was more sensible than them, and her actions were within George's expectation. She waved her hand to stop the knights.

But her act of picking up the letter regardless of her demeanor made George slightly raise his eyebrows, feeling a little surprised.

But what surprised George the most was what Elizabeth said next.

"Your Excellency Alexander, please don't be like this. Please rest here with the knights. I will do my best to meet your needs." The countess smiled slightly. The smile that burst out did not seem to be welcoming Seeing a group of uninvited guests, it seemed like welcoming an old friend who came from afar.

At this moment, all breathing in the hall seemed to have stopped.

After hearing these words, George couldn't help but blinked fiercely, and plucked his ears.

He looked at the big guy next to him with a dazed face, and saw the big guy just leaning over, touching the back of his head, smiling embarrassedly, "Oh, how do you know I'm hungry?"

Mrs. Elizabeth turned her gaze to look at this big, stupid man, her eyes were full of surprise and her face was blank.

George looked at the two men in a daze, making sure they didn't know each other.After being dazed for a moment, he looked at the bewildered eyes of the countess, and suddenly realized that this girl must be deceiving him

I really thought about it

"Hehe, Your Excellency the Earl." George laughed, and his face suddenly became very gloomy. "Among the bishops I know, whether new or old, there is absolutely no one with the name Alexander."

He can still be sure of this matter. After all, although he has been a trainee priest in the church, he still knows the names of big figures like bishops, including adults who have the opportunity to be promoted to bishops in the future.

However, after George finished speaking, the countess showed a blank expression, as if she had indeed heard of Alexander.

Then George saw her eyes widen, first at Alexander, then at himself.As if he understood something, his face turned from red to blue.

Finally, she nodded slowly, narrowed her eyes slightly, and looked at George with those murderous eyes.

""

Who is the name mentioned by the countess Alexander, George may never be able to figure it out in the future.

But no matter what, he knew that there must be a huge misunderstanding in this

Black Pearl Manor, living room on the third floor.

Looking at the black pearl knights who walked out, George felt that they were a bit too slender and handsome compared to the tall and thick men in his impression.

Moreover, whenever he looked at them and looked at their flustered eyes, George felt that these people were a little too timid.

He really couldn't understand how the countess relied on such a group of people to build a solid barrier here, so that the disasters in the north of the manor could not pass through here and harass the group of useless lords in the south.

"Someone once told me that the bones of my ancestors should be dug out from the cemetery and burned cleanly. But you know, in those days. For me who just inherited the territory, how difficult it is to issue such an order I've made too many wrong decisions, and he's right, I'm a stupid, indecisive woman."

The words in his ear made George slowly come back to his senses. He picked up the cup of black tea that had just been filled, and after taking a sip, he found that there was no sugar or milk added.He liked the bitter and fragrant taste very much.

Looking into those eyes, George smiled slightly, and said, "My lord, on this point, I have a different opinion from you. What I saw today is a wise and decisive lord. And you in these What I have done over the years has also made me admire."

If Anthony heard this shameless compliment, he might spit it out on the spot.But as long as the Countess can fulfill all the promises just now, George can spit out even more disgusting things.

However, in fact, judging from the current situation in the west of the valley.The host here is indeed very powerful if what she said is true.

One hundred thousand lives is the number that Elizabeth said.Before, when these words were spoken, George almost spit out the tea in his mouth.Up to now, he still has great doubts in his heart.

But those nobles who were drunk and dreaming, and the grain that was being carried outside the window at this time, were real.This made George have to wonder again and again whether there is still sunshine in this area of ​​the valley. It was just a heavy fog today.

He really couldn't understand, if there was no sunshine, what method would the Earl of Black Pearl use to keep all the monsters in the north.

Unless those monsters, like those nobles, can obey her command like a dog, and she will let those arrogant and extravagant nobles rush into the barn regardless of their dirty and tired.

George felt that everything he saw today was too weird, and this manor had always given him an inexplicable feeling.

But no matter what, this rich woman has already given her promise.

She said her seven boats would be filled with food and shipped to designated locations.

Each of these seven thousand-material ships can hold three to four hundred tons of goods, and when full, there are seven to eighty thousand bushels.

The earl promised to give [-] rations, so the remaining [-] to [-] will be transported by horses

These grains, in this period of time, are definitely an astronomical figure.

And if what the nobles said is true, then this woman seems to have distributed a lot of food to various territories in the south after so many years

She seems to be guarding here like a sea god needle, letting the huge waves to the north and the calm to the south.

George didn't know how the woman did it, it seemed to him that the countess had been preparing even before the mist.But many things are probably too wonderful. Just talk about food. Given the current pollution situation in the earldom, even if there is too much food stored, it may take tens of thousands of bushels to feed the thousands of soldiers in the manor castle every year.

Not to mention taking out the surplus food and giving it to the southern territories.

I am afraid that it is absolutely impossible to save money on food and expenses.

Unless the thousands of people guarding the earldom don't eat or drink

After a pause, George said, "Anyway, Lord Earl. On behalf of the Duke and the people of the entire Western Region, I would like to express my gratitude to you for everything you have done. Without your food, the battle on the front line would have ended in vain. If you need any help, please feel free to write. My knight order is stationed at the entrance of the valley."

"I don't need help, George." Elizabeth turned her head, with a hint of arrogance in her tone, "The Black Pearl family is far richer than you imagined, and the knights of the Black Pearl can also protect this land."

The countess continued, "But if you want to help yourself, you also want to worry about the future of the people in the valley. I suggest you pay attention to those areas in the north of my manor."

These two sentences of Earl Black Pearl are somewhat contradictory.Because if she really has this ability, she doesn't need anyone to help her worry about the north, as long as she pushes the army over.

So this surprised George slightly.However, he immediately understood that what Elizabeth said might just be trying to save face.

So he didn't say much, just nodded his head, as a promise.

"However, I will write to you"

The Countess' last look made George feel very unnatural.

"Dear Ms. Elizabeth, I have always had a question, please explain it to me."

"Please say."

"Who is Alexander?"

"I don't know this person, I just heard that the Holy See will send him to take over this place." Elizabeth said casually after taking a sip of tea.After a pause, she added with a smile, "There is no news in the valley, so there will inevitably be some wrong rumors. There have been some misunderstandings today, please don't worry about it, Your Excellency the bishop."

The words spoken by the countess sounded reasonable.But the expression in her eyes at this moment is not the case.

Looking at the stiff smile on Elizabeth's face, George nodded with an "oh", knowingly treating it as a misunderstanding.
