What Marquis Daniel was referring to were those members of the Golden Rose Clan who were not very talented or had allowed themselves to degenerate.
Not all noble families are filled with powerful people.
Most of them rely on attracting external talents to maintain the strength of their own families.
This is the case with the Golden Rose Family.
Among Daniel Golden Rose's direct descendants, very few are capable of showing off their talents.
But they are all noble children with the strength of formal knights or grand knights.
Even this was created by relying on the accumulation of family resources.
Most of the Earth Knights were viscounts and nobles appointed by Daniel. They had their own surnames and fiefdoms, but they had to obey the orders of Marquis Daniel.
Now that Marquis Daniel has great strength, he can naturally suppress them, but if something happens to him, I am afraid that the Golden Rose Family will lose its rule over the western part of the Principality.
This is not a question of loyalty or not, but only those with strong strength can have corresponding resources and honors, while the weak can only give up their interests in order to continue the family.
Marquis Daniel did not want to see this scene. He hoped that his Golden Rose family could continue to be passed down from generation to generation.
This is why he values Krober so much.
Among the nobles who are related to the Golden Rose Family by blood, Krober is considered to be the best among his peers in terms of talent, both in talent and intellect.
Daniel only provided him with a platform, but he successfully seized the opportunity and rose rapidly.
Although it may not sound pleasant, Marquis Daniel doesn't care about it. As long as the result is good, it's fine.
"Come on, everyone!"
Marquis Daniel looked at the people below with a smile on his face, then picked up his wine glass, stood up, and said with a smile:
“Let’s celebrate for Krober! Celebrate his promotion to earldom, making him the youngest earl in the entire duchy and even the entire Emerald Kingdom.
At the same time, we also congratulate him on finding the true love of his life - our beloved lord, ruler of the Golden Duchy, Her Excellency Veronica, the Golden Dragon Knight.
May they be forever happy and create a stronger country."
After saying that, Marquis Daniel took the lead and drank the wine in the glass.
"Cheers! Count Krobe!"
Everyone in the Golden Rose Family also stood up, raised their glasses in unison, and congratulated Krober.
Although they have poor talents, they were born in aristocratic families and naturally know how to avoid danger and seek good fortune.
Now Krober has become a hot new star in the Golden Duchy. As long as they are not mentally retarded, they will naturally know how to act.
Marquis Daniel looked at this scene and nodded with satisfaction.
He participated in many wars in his life.
Naturally, one knows that even a Sky Knight cannot absolutely guarantee his own life safety.
Take the war between the Emerald Kingdom and the Mountain Copper Kingdom for example. Even one dragon knight died, several fantasy beast knights died, and even more sky knights.
In their own territories, they are all powerful and superior, but when it comes to the battlefield at the national level, the situation is completely different.
Currently, the honor and disgrace of the Golden Rose Family rests entirely on him. If anything were to happen to him...
Forget it, never mind.
Enjoy the party!
After a night of partying.
In fact, a feast like this will also include some unique entertainment activities.
However, since Krober was present and was the future husband of Grand Duchess Veronica, if the news were to get out, it would probably incur the Grand Duchess's wrath.
So everyone tacitly agreed not to mention this matter.
The next morning, the two men with the strength of Sky Knights were not affected by alcohol and still maintained a clear mind.
"So, what is the matter that you came to me, an old man, to deal with this time?"
As agreed, after a night of partying, it was time to get down to business.
"Grandfather, this time I'm looking for you regarding the trade routes between our two families."
When it comes to business, Krober was not vague and immediately told Marquis Daniel his ideas and the plans submitted by officials in the territory.
The main trade is sea salt.
Krober promised to sell sea salt and other marine specialties to the Golden Rose Family at a price 20% lower than the market price.
In exchange, the Golden Rose Family will also sell other conventional supplies at a price 20% lower than the market price.
And this is a win-win situation for both parties.
Currently, the purchasing channels for the Amethyst Islands are fixed on Heiyu Island or other eastern coastal cities.
As a trading city, it is normal that prices there are generally high, but Krober does not want to be a sucker. He still needs to save money to provide food for Shen Zi.
At this time, Krober's maternal family was very suitable to help Krober break this predicament.
"Yes, once your trade route is established, I will assign someone to connect with your Chamber of Commerce."
Marquis Daniel only thought about it for a moment and then agreed to Krober's suggestion.
This suggestion did not sound like it would harm the interests of the Golden Rose Family, so Daniel had no reason to reject it.
"Okay, if there's no problem, I'll leave first. I have other things to take care of."
After enjoying himself and finishing his business, Krober still had to hurry up to look for the tin dragon.
When Marquis Daniel heard that Krober was leaving, he naturally wanted to keep him.
To be honest, Krober really wanted to stay in Flower Crown City for a few days.
But he had an inexplicable sense of crisis in his heart.
After talking with Veronica, the sense of crisis was magnified a lot.
What enabled Krober to occupy the southwestern region of the Blue Sea?
Is it your own strength?
No!
He relied on Veronica's authority and the presence of Deep Purple.
If not, he would have died in the army of the sea people or been assassinated by Ossus.
Krober was eager to have enough strength to fight against the sea people. For this reason, he rushed to the Moi Forest in such a hurry after breaking through the Sky Knight.
He urgently needs a top-level fighter who can be displayed in public.
If Deep Purple were exposed, it would probably attract the attention of the kings of the Seven Kingdoms, so the tin dragon was just right for Krober's current situation.
"Actually...my destination this time is the Moi Forest. You're just passing through here."
Marquis Daniel is not comparable to Hyer. When he heard Krober's words, he immediately thought of the tin dragon living in the forest.
"You... could it be?!"
Marquis Daniel thought about it for a moment, but then he seemed to suddenly think of something and looked at Krober with an incredulous look.
Krober was silent and just nodded.
Marquis Daniel also fell into silence.
"You are not lying to me..."
