Dear Broom Knight.

Chapter 182 Valera's Advice
Charles, like those knights, stared at the white dragon flying under the clouds every day.

Of course everyone knew they had no hope, but this was a dragon that grew up in their Gezar!

It must be well protected!

When Valeera didn't know...it's not that she didn't know, but she didn't ask why the knights suddenly became so serious and responsible. She would only take action if they were lazy...The knights had already thought of countless possible spies and carefully checked every caravan that was qualified to enter the territory of Gezaar.

That's not even a basic intimidation skill. It's just short of strangling the businessmen and asking them what their hidden intentions are!
That's why he immediately informed his companions as soon as he got the news... Compared to Valeera and Cheska, who didn't care so much about the white dragon, they were the ones who were most angry about this matter.

They were the first ones to start guarding against these outsiders, but in the end... they were the ones who were taken advantage of.

It’s easy to imagine how furious the knights of Qingfeng Valley must be at this moment.

Therefore, they could definitely make those caravans, no matter why they came, leave with boiling anger towards the Church of Dark Night.

It was because the Baron thought too much that he asked them not to harm the interests of these innocent caravans... Otherwise, Charles and his men would ensure that the group of people would not be able to take away even a horse.

However, Charles also understood that although their little baron had a bad temper and an arrogant personality, he was extremely abiding by the rules and was never the first to break the rules.

If he gave these caravans enough face and there were still people who wanted to take advantage of him, then those fools would know where their baron's great reputation came from.

Yes, although Lowry always thought of himself as an approachable otaku, his subordinates all thought that he was actually a very arrogant person.

Frankly speaking, although socializing is troublesome, for the sake of their own safety, most people, even if they have a superior family background, a large fortune, and good strength, will still practice the basic "etiquette" of making friends with those far away and attacking those near, and fighting and making friends with their neighbors.

Lowry felt that he didn't need to care about those things at all, and even dared to treat the church as an aristocratic force. Everyone could see his pride and confidence.

Although Lori was aware that he was very respectful to the King of the North, his teacher who was the Grand Court Wizard, and the so-called incarnation of God and the incarnation of the evil god...but, wasn't that right?

How many ordinary nobles, even those from the territory, could speak as eloquently as he did in front of such a powerful man?
Even when the White Dragon King did not value him as much as he does now, Lori was already a proud little rooster... When it was time to crow, he would fly to the top of a high tree and crow loudly in the light of dawn, with a clear mind, not afraid at all of whether he would disturb others who did not want to wake up.

Of course, this is not without its benefits.

Those who are willing to stay in the territory of Gezar know very well that following this proud little baron, even if they will not become rich, they will definitely have enough food and clothing.

The most important thing is that you will live to a ripe old age.

His boss is the kind of hardliner who, if he doesn't want to get involved, it will be difficult for anyone to drag him into it. This is too convincing for someone who just wants to live a good life.

Charles looked at the sky outside and rethought in his mind what had happened recently.

He didn't think that the Dark Night Church, which had encountered such a tough counterattack from Lori, would continue to cause trouble for the Gezale Territory.

To put it bluntly, the opponent's method was more like a way to disgust Lowry for no reason, and it was too crude.

If those church forces really want to cheat people... they can take a look at the Montes Castle back then.

Although Pat's identity was a bit problematic, she managed her own territory flawlessly.

Unfortunately, just as she had filled all the holes and turned to go somewhere else, one of the owners took the initiative to poke a few big holes.

Pat is just capable, not a god.

Tsk, the Lord of Storms would probably be stunned if he met the two sons of Count Montes.

However, Charles also understood that their territory could not always survive by being looked down upon by others.

What happened this time is the biggest warning to them.

Even if the Baron doesn't care about the mistakes of the four siblings, but... they themselves must remember it firmly.

He glanced at the folder Valera had placed on the table and asked softly, "Is this a new sticker?"

"Yeah." Valera replied briefly.

Charles knew that Valera was probably more anxious than himself.

After all, she is the one who truly governs Qingfeng Valley.

Even though, on the surface, the responsibility for this mistake can be shifted to others, a truly smart person will definitely check for his own shortcomings and make up for his own loopholes.

Isn't it me who is always counting on the enemy to take action?
"We have no way to ensure that the letter will not be replaced halfway." Valera pondered for a long time before slowly saying, "It's the same even if you and I deliver the letter in person.

Anyone who dares to take action in our famous territory where eyes are everywhere is definitely not someone that low-level professionals like us can fight against.

So, Charles, I plan to apply to the Baron to purchase two space rings.

This is the property of our Qingfeng Valley, so I need to use the public warehouse of Qingfeng Valley.

This requires your consent."

Qingfeng Valley naturally also has its own small treasury.

Serious transactions are naturally conducted in the territory.

But the caravan's expenses in Qingfeng Valley...mainly accommodation fees and the profits from the grocery store and small restaurant, which Lori left to them to handle.

Although the territory would provide daily necessities of food, clothing, shelter and transportation, a garrison must have some mobile assets to avoid being helpless in the event of an emergency. Lowry was well aware of this.

Moreover, to be frank, Lowry knew how much income Qingfeng Valley had just by doing the math, so he didn't worry at all that someone might have selfish motives.

Besides, he always paid his people high salaries.

Although it is a joke to maintain integrity through high salaries, those who are greedy will still be greedy, but it can ensure that those who do not want to be greedy can live an honest life.

Of course, the most important thing is that Lowry has enough spies and no one can bribe them.

If you are confident, you will naturally be more tolerant towards your subordinates.

But he did not completely give up this power.

Whether Valera or Charles wants to use the money, both parties must agree.

Of course, anyone with a discerning eye could see that Lowry was not on guard against these two siblings.

Rather, as their strength and abilities improve, there will come a day when Valeera and Charis can no longer continue to be gatekeepers.

Even though the siblings were still staying in Qingfeng Valley, it was impossible for them to get entangled in daily trivial matters at that time.

Human life span is directly linked to strength.

There was no way Lowry would allow the people who were loyal to him to suffer the greatest harm.

Even if Valera and the others didn't care, Lori wouldn't do such a stupid thing.

Of course, the stronger the loyal followers, the better.

Even though, now no one thinks that the four Toller siblings are of any use to him in terms of military force...Lori is the strongest in this territory.

This will remain an indisputable reality for the next hundred years.

And a hundred years from now, it will depend on whether Lowry can be stronger than the young white dragon in his own territory.

In fact, Lowry had already designed a continuous bureaucratic system for himself.

The foundation laid by the first group of people is the most important.

The subordinates brought by the four Toller siblings, whom he trusted the most, would definitely be of good quality even if they had some minor flaws.

That's enough.

What will become of these officials after three generations will depend on his supervisory methods... The most important thing is that Lowry really doesn't think that by that time, he, who is already too old, will have to be in charge himself.

If he still has to worry about these trivial matters at that age, then his life has really been lived in vain.

Charles glanced at Valera and said, “The storage box we are using now is also space equipment.

Since the other party has a way to get the letters out of the box, they can definitely take action on the space ring.

Do you really think that a ring that is only slightly better than a storage box is worth spending so much money on?
Valeera, if it was really necessary, the Baron would have sent the ring long ago.

I don’t quite agree with your idea.”

Although they have always had a close relationship as siblings, they have never easily compromised in their work.

Of course, Valera and Charles understood that Lori had no intention of pitting them against each other on this point. Whenever they chatted, he would give them advice on how to teach the heirs he favored.

However, the brother and sister still chose to handle the matter impartially.

When it comes to matters concerning the Baron, the siblings never do things half-heartedly.

Even if the Baron himself agreed to this.

"Of course, I'm not thinking about the safety of the ring itself." Valera said calmly, "But I know that even those incredibly powerful people can't attack continuously.

Our knights of Gezar are not so dull.

They can choose one from the storage box and the dimensional ring to take action.

Then, we will equip the storage box with a real magic lock.

I remember the Baron said that the magic lock he set up was so powerful that even the Archmage Arsalan couldn't open it with a simple lock picking spell, right?"

Charles blinked in surprise: “But, Valera, the lock is difficult to open because there is no key, not even a fixed rune!

Every time I open it, I have to recalculate the runes on the lock... Sister, can you figure it out in half an hour?"

No one knew what had stimulated Baron Lori, but one day he suddenly became interested in an ancient technology that had long been forgotten.

As a wizard, he is very accurate in his calculations, but others cannot do that.

Even the simplest lock took Charles hours to calculate!
