.
Jiang Tian knew that Buckingham was incredibly wealthy.
20 million gold coins were nothing to him.
Are you hungry?
Buckingham nodded.
Jiang Tian took out a knife and cut all the ropes binding Buckingham.
"Don't run, you can't escape either."
Buckingham nodded again, and he quickly stretched his muscles and bones.
"Wait here, I'll get you some food and drinks."
Buckingham was tormented that night; the hay in the stable was infested with bedbugs, and he was itchy all over.
Soon, Jiang Tian brought over a tray.
A roasted leg of lamb sits on the tray.
There was also a bottle of red wine next to it.
Jiang Tian placed these items in front of Buckingham.
"Can I eat out? This place is infested with bedbugs. Look at my arm, it's covered in bites, and my whole body is covered in bumps."
The guy was scratching rapidly as he spoke.
Jiang nodded and led Buckingham down to the first floor.
Already starving, Buckingham grabbed the roasted lamb leg and devoured it. After finishing the entire leg, he took a sip of red wine.
“You don’t look like a Frankish person, so why are you helping them?”
"I told you, they gave me 10 million gold coins."
"Give me your 20 million gold coins anytime, and I can help you deal with them."
Buckingham Palace Duke took another sip of red wine: "Your two men are incredibly skilled; I've never seen such brave men before."
"I can have someone deliver 20 million gold coins to you right now."
"After I give it to you, could you do a few things for me?"
Jiang Tian nodded. There was money to be made, and it was just a small favor, so why not?
"Go ahead and tell me what it is."
The Duke of Buckingham lowered his head and remained silent for a long time.
"I'll let you in on a secret; it might be worth 20 million gold coins."
Upon hearing this, Buckingham quickly looked up.
"You must have planted spies in Frank."
"You should know that the Franks sent an army of 550,000 straight to Russia."
Buckingham knew about this.
"This army of 550,000 has been completely wiped out, and the commander has also been killed."
Although the Franks still had over 100,000 troops, they lacked senior generals capable of commanding the battle.
Moreover, those hundreds of thousands of troops were not elite troops at all.
Jiang Tian didn't finish speaking before glancing at Buckingham again.
Is this true or false...?
"You can have your spies verify this. I think you have spies not only in Frankish countries, but also in Russia."
"It seems what you said is true."
"Do you think my news is worth 20 million gold coins? Of course, 20 million gold coins can also buy your life."
Upon hearing this, Buckingham quickly said, "You really intend to let me go?"
"Of course it's true, but the condition is that I have to see the money first. If I can't see the money..."
"I understand, I understand."
"I'll order men to sail back and retrieve them right now." The Duke of Buckingham stepped out of the room. "I wonder if any of my men are still alive."
There should be a few more.
…………
22 Champs-Élysées.
Jiang Tian knocked on the door, and Chen Yuanyuan rushed out and hugged Jiang Tian tightly.
"What are you doing? I just knocked on the door, and you opened it and threw yourself at me." Jiang Tian pinched Chen Yuanyuan's nose and gently stroked it. "If it were some flower thief who knocked on the door, would you throw yourself at him too? Aren't you ashamed, little girl?"
Chen Yuanyuan hugged Jiang Tian's arm: "I saw your car upstairs. Who else would come besides you?"
Aksinya, the little girl, also came downstairs, and the two girls escorted Jiang Tian upstairs.
"Ling Yunzhi, find me another house nearby. I need to arrange for an important person to stay here."
"promise……"
Jiang Tian looked at No. 22 Champs-Élysées. The house was decent, but it wasn't as nice as the Cardinal's castle.
"What, husband, don't you live here?" Chen Yuanyuan asked, her face full of disappointment.
This young girl had already fallen in love with Jiang Tian.
Chen Yuanyuan felt miserable every day she didn't see Jiang Tian.
“I live in the castle and come to visit you from time to time. The house I chose is for a friend to stay in.”
Upon hearing this, the two little girls let out a long sigh.
Of course, the two little girls knew that too.
Jiang Tian was like a wild horse that had broken free of its reins; he was someone these two young girls simply couldn't control.
These two girls knew even better that the more capable a man was, the less likely he was to be tied up by a woman's skirt.
"I'll give you some money. You can tell Ling Yunzhi and Chen Feilong what you want to eat, play, or buy."
"Let them buy it for you."
The two little girls nodded.
Because Jiang Tian has plenty of money, he can sell the items in the system anytime, anywhere.
Moreover, as the number of products sold increased, the amount of money earned also increased.
The items in the system repository are now being recycled for 1.5 times their original price.
Every day, the items in the system warehouse can be sold for millions of taels of silver.
…………
Jiang Tiantian found a house for the Duke of Buckingham.
"Your Excellency, please stay here for the time being. We apologize for the inconvenience."
Jiang Tian sat down.
On the table in front of the two people were fine steaks, red wine, and foie gras.
Someone was playing the violin nearby.
"This piano is nice," Jiang Tian said, gently swirling his wine glass in time with the music.
The red wine redeemed from the system is of quite good quality.
The Duke of Buckingham took a sip and praised it repeatedly.
"I never imagined that I would be able to drink such good wine in this place."
Jiang Tian waved to the maids in the room: "You all go down, and the one playing the violin too. We have something important to say."
After clearing away the plates, the maids quickly left.
"Duke of Buckingham, I'm a straightforward person and I don't like beating around the bush."
“Me too, that’s why we’re such good friends,” Buckingham said as he cut his steak with a knife and fork.
This medium-rare steak is tender, juicy, and delicious.
“Since that’s the case, then I’ll be frank.” Jiang Tian put down his wine glass. “The Frankish bishop is full of hostility towards you.”
“I know that old man. My love for Queen Anna is as good as day, but that old man always likes to send his men to interfere.”
"Your feelings for Queen Anna...do you really love that woman?"
The Duke of Buckingham nodded without hesitation: "From the first time I saw her, I was captivated by her beauty, and I cannot live without her."
