Chapter 133: The Temptation of Rich Women
Louise is actually a relatively reserved person, and it took a lot of courage to say what she just said.
Brand was now looking at her with a "scrutinizing" and "confused" look, and Louise really didn't know what she had done wrong.
According to the "plan", Brand shouldn't have this reaction!
Under Brand's gaze, Louise's face unconsciously turned redder and redder.
Just when I was thinking about whether I should go out and hide for a while to calm down.
Brand suddenly figured out what key point her words were missing.
He said with some uncertainty:
"I remember that the Mesa family has designated someone who wants to marry me. Couldn't that person be Ms. Louise?"
Seeing that Brand finally stopped looking at her with that weird look, She, Louise, was relieved and a little annoyed at the same time!
——The Earl of Mesa didn’t tell her that Brand didn’t know about this yet!
In fact, Mr. Holland once gave Brand a stack of lists, and it was written on it that Louise was the person designated by the Mesa family to marry Brand.
But what Mr. Holland didn't expect was that Brand didn't look at the list carefully.
After knowing Brand's doubts, Louise explained:
"To express apology for the previous incident, the Mesa family promised to marry the most talented descendant to Mr. Brand.
I am now 21 years old, I have reached the level of a senior knight, and I am the person who has the best chance of becoming a grand knight in the Mesa family in decades!
According to the original agreement, if the Mesa family wants to marry Mr. Brand, I will be Mr. Brand’s marriage partner. "
Hearing Louise's explanation, Brand felt that the Mesa family was indeed sincere.
As far as he knew, there was only one great knight in the entire Mesa family, and he was already old.
The Mesa family is not a knight family at all.
Descendants in their families who have knight talents will be sent to the knight academy to study and practice.
The various inheritances in the Knight Academy, to put it bluntly, are just popular goods in the eyes of many knight families in the Kaya Empire. At most, they are relatively comprehensive.
According to Yersin, it was certain to reach high knighthood before he opened up the war.
He should be 19 by then.
——This is the result of the assistance of the knight's secret medicine.
There is a high probability that Louise does not have the knight's secret medicine.
Even if there were, the effect would certainly not be as good as the Holland family's secret knight medicine.
So Louise reached senior knighthood at the age of 21.
This talent is actually almost the same as Yersin's.
——They are also among the top knight talents in the empire.
Katherine and Finn are not included, they have extraordinary blood.
After becoming an official knight, the role of bloodline will become smaller and smaller.
If they have no talent themselves, their cultivation speed will gradually slow down at this stage, and they will eventually be surpassed by talented people like Yersin and Louise.
According to Andy, Finn definitely doesn't have the talent for knight training.
Many descendants of the Cecil family have extraordinary bloodlines.
But at most he can only become an intermediate knight.
After all, they are a mage family!
Brand is not very clear about Catherine.
According to Catherine herself, her talent was pretty good.
I just don’t know if this is good or how good it is.
After various thoughts flashed through his mind, Brand said to Louise:
"Ms. Louise, let's put the marriage aside for now. After all, the family has not yet determined whether you and I will get married in the end, but if you want Whatever you do, I will definitely provide as much help as I can."
Although the Mesa family is indeed sincere, Brand is not interested in marriage for the time being.
After all, he has quite a few marriage partners, and they are still growing!
Unless this problem is solved, he really has no intention of getting married.
At this time, Brand suddenly became confused again.
He just remembered that all the prisoners of war during this outing belonged to the Sixth Infantry Regiment.
To obtain slaves, slave traders need to purchase them from the 6th Infantry Regiment.
Louise just said we would work together again?
So...
——Ms. Louise came here to ask him to borrow money?
Louise was a little disappointed when Brand avoided talking about the marriage.
But the problem is not that big.
According to the analysis of Mr. Romien and Mr. Holland, what Brand wanted was never an army.
But the territory!
Then, she said to Brand: "I wonder if Mr. Brand has ever paid attention to issues related to obtaining territory?"
When talking about the issue of territory, Brand unconsciously showed a look of curiosity on his face.
——He is more interested in this topic!
At this time, Louise continued:
"According to the territory exchange system during the previous empire expansion wars, the exchange of territory not only depends on whether the war merits are sufficient, but also depends on the individual's actual contribution to the war. The actual contribution The higher the number, the more priority the territory exchange rights will have!"
Brand is quite clear about this. This system was actually proposed to check and balance those "noble legions".
After all, merit within the noble corps is distributed by itself!
——This means that merit can be traded privately.
If the redemption of territory only requires meritorious deeds, there will be many problems.
——For example, descendants of nobles who did not participate in the pioneering war can also obtain territory!
This is something the royal family does not want to see. It is not only unfair to those participating in the war, but also weakens the right to allocate territory!
So according to the royal family's opinion, other things are fine, but the territory must be distributed according to the actual contribution made in the war!
——The imperial royal family will use magical means to supervise!
At this time, Louise said seriously again:
"Mr. Brand, the Mesa family is a military family with extremely complete military training methods.
I can cultivate a powerful army for Mr. Brand. Then lead this army in the war to obtain more war contributions for Mr. Brand.
In this way, Mr. Brand can exchange for a better territory!
And the price is just a marriage with me!
I won't even be Mr. Brand’s real wife!”
Hearing what Louise said, various thoughts began to flash through Brand's mind.
According to the plan, when the war begins, Mr. Holland will detach a family knights group and send it to him.
At that time, the performance of himself and his knights in the pioneering war will be his actual contribution in the pioneering war.
Looking at it now before the pioneering war has begun, in order to obtain more benefits and obtain better and larger territory in the pioneering war.
In addition to practicing hard, he also needs to use various means to gain more and stronger power.
When thinking of this, Brand suddenly understood the thoughts of Mr. Holland and Andy.
Because all the girls are willing to marry him, marriage is indeed the easiest and fastest way for him to accumulate power.
As long as he marries enough girls like Louise, he can directly gather astonishing power during the pioneering war, and then easily obtain large territories!
It always felt like the current scene was very much like a rich woman trying to persuade him not to work hard.
