So Luther couldn't judge the level of these knights, but as the baron's personal knights, they should be very strong.

Of course, the five knights all saw Pompey and his son, but old Thor's face still came in handy, and the father and son came to the baron unhindered.

"Hey, Thor." The Baron also noticed Pompey and his son, shook his shoulders exaggeratedly, and then gave old Thor a hug.

"My Lord Baron." Old Thor hugged the Baron very familiarly.

The two people seemed not like king and subject, but old friends.

But this is normal. The Baron and Old Thor are about the same age. As heirs of their respective families, they had interactions in their childhood.

After he became an adult, Old Thor served as a general under the Baron and fought side by side with the Baron many times, so they had a close relationship.

Therefore, the plan of Pompey and his son was not to seize Baron Baron's territory and plot to usurp power.

Besides, usurping power is not feasible in this world. The idea of ​​a subject killing the king and gaining control over the territory will be resisted by all the nobles.

There is even more resistance than for the second son to become the heir. There have been precedents in history of the second son becoming the heir, but there has never been a precedent of a second son being able to keep the throne after a successful conspiracy to usurp power.

Of course, the throne is different.

Because the king originally stands at the highest point of the country and is the end of the rules. If the throne is usurped, then no one can control the traitor who seizes the throne.

All in all, the current plan of Pompey and his son is to establish a small barony outside of the Baron Territory, step by step.

Anyway, the forest is extremely vast and there is plenty of land.

After the baron hugged Old Sol, he stood in front of Luther, gave him a very kind smile, and said, "This must be Luther, an excellent little fellow."

Luther only remembered meeting the Baron when he was a child, but his impression was vague. This was his first contact with the Baron, and he felt that he was a very gentle person.

"My Lord Baron." Luther bowed politely to the Baron and saluted with his right hand on his chest.

"You are so polite. It's not good to be too conservative at your age." The baron made a surprising move. He pinched Luther's cheek and said with a smile: "I held you in my arms when you were a child."

"It's just that I peed all over you."

At this time, Old Sol interrupted with a smile.

"Hahahaha, that pee was really heavy." The Baron laughed.

Luther's face turned a little red. Although it was something that happened when he was a child, he still felt a little ashamed to have it said in public.

Of course, he had no recollection of this happening.

"Hehe." Mrs. Morgan next to her was also laughing so hard that her body was shaking. She gently covered her little mouth with a pink fan, looking very charming.

A pair of charming eyes stared at Luther, as if he was very interested in him.

This is normal, Luther is a very handsome and nice guy.

But Luther was a little overwhelmed. He glanced at the baron, who didn't seem to care much about his mistress's behavior.

He may not mind his mistress having trysts with other men.

Luther couldn't help but sigh again, your circle is so chaotic.

Then the Baron stopped teasing Luther and talked with old Saul for a while. Of course, they didn't talk while standing. The Baron asked the servants to bring the grill.

Ask the servants to grill the meat, prepare some snacks like biscuits and a bottle of red wine, and sit down with old Sol, having a relaxing and pleasant conversation as if it were afternoon tea.

Mrs. Morgan was not shy at all. Instead, she showed an unbridled smile, and her great thing was shaking.

Old Sol chatted with him for a long time. When the atmosphere was about right, Old Sol bowed and said to the Baron, "My Lord Baron, I came here this time because I have a favor to ask of you."

"Oh, our generous and straightforward Mr. Thor has become pretentious." The Baron was a little surprised, because old Thor has always been known for his generosity outside.

Then the baron showed a cheerful look, "Just tell me what you want to say. I won't refuse to help you if I can."

"I want to borrow some money from you." Old Saul's face turned a little red, but it was fleeting. If Luther hadn't had good eyesight, he probably wouldn't have noticed.

"Isn't your Pompeii wine very popular? Are you still short of money?" the baron asked curiously.

What's even stranger is that Old Saul never asked him to borrow money.

"You also know Pompeii wine?" asked Old Sol.

"Yeah, I have, but to be honest I don't like it. I still prefer red wine." The baron thought about the taste of Pompeii wine and felt a little disgusted.

This is normal, after all, the mainstream of this world is red wine. Too many nobles can't stand the taste of Pompeii wine. If Pompeii wine is really that popular, then the income of the Pompeii family will definitely not be only 300 gold coins a month.

But at the same time, the nobles who liked Pompeii wine were extremely loyal and praised it highly.

There is serious polarization.

Here Old Sol nodded to show his understanding, although he thought Pompeii wine was delicious. Then Old Sol sighed and said a little embarrassedly: "Although the income from Pompeii wine is good, I need a little more money this time."

"How much is a bit more? It wouldn't be ten thousand gold coins, right?" The baron showed some interest.

"Um, a little more of that." Old Thor said awkwardly.

"Twenty thousand gold coins?" The baron frowned slightly. This was a huge sum of money.

"One hundred thousand gold coins." Old Thor finally said honestly.

"Puff!" The baron was taking a sip of red wine and spat it out when he heard the words. Fortunately, he was a senior knight so he turned his head quickly and sprayed it somewhere else, otherwise old Thor's face would have been in trouble.

Mrs. Morgan was so shocked that she forgot to use a handkerchief to clean the stain for the Baron.

One hundred thousand gold coins, oh my god.

Mrs. Morgan was the Baron's old lover, and the two had been in a relationship for many years. She knew exactly how much money the Baron had in his wallet.

But it's only two or three hundred thousand gold coins.

At first glance, it seems like a lot, but in fact, it is very little. This is because Barton County has many guardian knights, knight salaries, official salaries, and daily expenses.

These two or three hundred thousand gold coins serve as the most basic operating funds and are not easy to move.

Not to mention the Pompeii Knight in front of him, who asked for 100,000 gold coins right away, which was really enough to threaten the Baron's life.

The Baron took a moment to calm down, then took the handkerchief from the table and wiped his mouth, then joked in a very stiff tone.

"One hundred thousand gold coins, my God, are you planning to form a powerful army, and an army composed of female knights?"
