Although I earn a lot, I also spend a lot.

In addition to supporting five knightly orders and paying salaries to numerous officials and servants in various places, Lulans himself also needs to spend a large amount of gold coins every year to buy magic potions to relieve pain from the Silva Magic Chamber of Commerce.

This item alone requires an investment of more than 100,000 gold coins every year.

The 100,000 gold coins that Ronin mentioned now are exactly the money that Lulans is going to pay to Miroslav to buy the potion for next year.

However, he did not expect that the Soul-Devouring Surge could be completely cured by Elrond, and this huge expense was completely saved.

"One hundred thousand gold coins is easy!"

Lu Lan Si waved his hand and said, "I will let Moster carry those boxes of gold coins to your room tonight."

He didn't hesitate for a moment.

To him, these 100,000 gold coins were nothing compared to regaining his health and no longer suffering.

What's more, this is not only about thanking the grandson, but also about helping the grandson.

If he had not considered buying potions before, he would not have been so stingy in his previous support efforts.

Luo Ning thanked his generous grandfather, and the two had a detailed conversation about the Surge of Witch Souls.

Luo Ning wanted to know who had planted the poison.

But this matter was quite unexpected, and Lu Lans couldn't figure out where the other party got the black scroll.

He guessed that perhaps just like when he picked up the contract scroll, the other party's black scroll was also obtained by chance.

As they chatted, the topic gradually returned to the two griffins in Shore City.

Luo Ning did not hide it. After all, now that Lulans had recovered, the old marquis needed to know the geographical situation around Wushan Territory.

So he directly told the story of how Ramsey stabbed into the castle and was killed by him in return.

"etc!"

Lu Lan Si quickly raised his hand to stop Roning from speaking, "You mean, you killed Ramsay? He is a Meteor Knight, and you are also a Meteor Knight?"

The old man's eyes widened, "Also, your follower, Rydar is also a Meteor Knight?"

Roning nodded slightly, "Yes, to be precise, I am not only a Meteor Knight, but also a Great Mage."

There is no need to hide anything when facing Lu Lan Si.

Moreover, as Roning's strength grew stronger, the need to deliberately hide his strength became less and less necessary.

Hiss! Lu Lans took a breath of cold air after figuring out Roning's strength. How did he achieve level 7 in both professions? Suddenly, he remembered that the last time he asked about this matter, Roning had said, "Just think of it as a divine weapon hidden in my body."

Lu Lans had thought that Roning didn’t want to say it before, but now it seems that he really has a magical weapon.

He looked at Elrond, who was sitting quietly beside him with short gray hair. He was an eighth-level magician! It was shocking that an earldom had three such strong men.

"I've never heard of anyone who has such strong power at your age. If Jesus knew that Ramsey died because of his stupidity, he would probably be so angry that he would vomit blood on the spot, right?"

Ro Ning didn't know whether he would vomit blood or not, but considering the other party's personality, he would definitely be very angry.

Lulans frowned slightly. "Based on my understanding of Jesus, he will not pretend to be ignorant of this matter. Even if he does not go to war with you, he will contact you privately to see if it is possible to rescue Ramsey through ransom. At the same time, he can also test whether Ramsey is dead or not."

He paused and continued, "It's not in line with Jesus' style to have no reaction at all."

Luo Ning nodded slightly, he also felt something was wrong.

Putting aside the fact that Ramsey is a Meteor Knight, he is also Jesus' son-in-law. As the lord of Moonlight Valley, Jesus should be involved, both morally and legally, and both publicly and privately.

"How are you going to deal with Moonlight Valley?" Lu Lans suddenly asked.

Luo Ning pondered for a while and said, "I have no plans to deal with Moonlight Valley for the time being."

He spread his hands and said, "After all, the territory needs to develop and cannot withstand large-scale mobilization and consumption. In addition, although Redar leads the Fifth Knights of Wushan Fort, Jesus has four knights under his command, which does not give him an advantage. Moreover, if we attack Moonlight Valley on the pretext of being assassinated, His Majesty Bruno will probably intervene to mediate."

"There is no problem in sending troops under the pretext of being assassinated. Even if the king comes forward, we don't have to worry that he will favor Jesus."

The king hopes that his subordinates will fight and make some noise, which is better than just focusing on their own development.

Lu Lans said: "But you are right. Wushan Castle and your Wubei Territory have enough top combat power, but the number of knights under your command is small."

Although there are five troops in Wushan Fort, they cannot all be deployed to deal with Moonlight Valley. At least half must be kept for defense.

As for the high-level combat power, to be honest, there is a Silver Moon Knight, a Mage, plus Ronin, Redar, and Melonica.

If such a lineup is exposed to the outside world, it will inevitably attract the fear of other forces.

Not to mention the Principality of Vera and Howling Island, even the king might be wary at that time.

Lu Lans was a man who had suffered losses. His eldest son was targeted because he was too outstanding.

Now he didn't want Roning to make the same mistake again.

When he thought of the past, hatred welled up in the old man's eyes.

"Over the years, Moonlight Valley, the Principality of Vera, and Screaming Island have always regarded Wushan Territory as their prey, and have been making small moves to take advantage of the opportunity to eat a bite. It's a pity that they didn't eat it when I was sick, and now they have no chance."

"What are you going to do?" Luo Ning asked.

"The first step is definitely to wait until I fully recover, or even break through to the Silver Moon level, and then announce my recovery to the public."

Lu Lans decided to pretend first and not cause any trouble.

"The second step is to form more knight groups."

In previous years, huge expenses limited the number of knights in the marquisate.

Now that Lulans no longer needs to spend more than 100,000 gold coins, he can invest the money in the team.

At least three more branches can be formed.

By then, Wushanbao will have eight knightly orders.

In fact, such a number is not enough for him to fight on two fronts, but if Wubei Territory develops and unites with Ronin and other nobles, the strength of Wushan Territory will be raised to a higher level.

Thinking of this, Lu Lans couldn't help but smile happily.

Not only did he recover his fighting strength, he also had the opportunity to avenge his previous defeat. Today was truly a day of surprises.

"Develop first, then find an opportunity to take revenge on them. This is the route I want to take."

Luo Ning smiled and said, "I didn't expect you to think the same as I did."

"Haha, they are grandfather and grandson after all."

The more Lu Lans looked at Luo Ning, the more satisfied he was. "I feel very relieved to leave Wushan Territory to you in the future."

Luo Ning shook his head and said, "With your strength, it will be no problem for you to live another 70 or 80 years. By that time, I will probably be dead."

After seventy or eighty years, Jiaoyang's estimate was just too conservative. Maybe he could become a legend? Lu Lansi stared at Luo Ning in a daze.

The Knight of the Prideful Sun and the Great Mage are beings that can stir up the situation on the continent.

If one day in the future, his grandson really becomes a strong man of this level, regardless of whether he will become a king, it should be no problem for him to at least become a duke, right?

At this moment he seemed to understand why the other party was no longer interested in the title of Marquis.

It turns out that this is not my intention.

Lu Lans couldn't help but give a thumbs up: "You are the pride of the Wushan family, kid, no matter what decision you make in the future, I will always be your staunch supporter!" (End of this chapter)
