"300 gold coins, this is the limit I can bear. You should know that this isn't a small amount. It's almost half a year's worth of income."

The baroness tried her best. However, Harrison kept smiling and didn't say anything. He didn't even participate in the bargaining.

If it was the original owner, she might really have been fooled. Half a year's income sounded scary, but in fact, there was a lot of exaggeration in it.

If this was the only income, everyone in the baron's manor would have to eat nothing. There were very few freemen these days, and most of them were serfs who relied on the nobles.

There were more than 10,000 people in the baron's territory. Even though his mathematics was only at the middle school level, Hudson knew that his family's income was not just what it appeared to be.

Concealing income was also an unspoken rule of the aristocratic group. Although the king only collected business tax, the church collected a tenth of it!

As a devout believer, he naturally could not resist the tithe of the church. Therefore, the best choice was to think of ways to lower their income.

The average annual income of the territory was less than one silver coin, and it was difficult for them to even eat grass. However, they were able to pay the tithe tax on time. Clearly, the Koslow family was the most devout believer of the King of Dawn.

"Three hundred gold coins, a good warhorse and a set of armor. You've already become a knight, so you need your own knight equipment."

The baroness promised again.

Upon hearing this answer, Harrison rolled his eyes. He was clearly treating him like a child. It was true that becoming a knight required equipment, but he believed that his cheap father would prepare it.

As a traditional noble, Baron Redman was very concerned about his reputation. He would not make a fool of himself in this aspect.

Although he had many sons and his wallet was a little dry, wasn't Rysoul crippled?

Not only did he save a sum of money, but he also had a few more years of buffer time. It shouldn't be difficult for him to recover.

Only the baroness could not see the situation clearly and was still working hard for Lesur. In fact, he had been abandoned since the day of the incident.

Family resources were out of the question. Even if Baron Redman loved his son dearly and was willing to continue investing, the other members of the Koslow family would not agree.

"400 gold coins!"

"Hadson, this is all the cash I can use. Your father will find out if there's any more."

The baroness said helplessly.

Although he was nominally in charge of the finances of the manor, the actual decision-maker was indeed Baron Redman. He could only use his own small treasury, and there was not much cash.

"The remaining 100 gold coins can be used to offset it! Magic cores and jingshi are fine. I think Furen wouldn't go back on her word for this bit of money."

Hudson pretended to be magnanimous.

That annoying expression made the baroness 'anger, which she had suppressed with great difficulty, rise again. Without waiting for her to flare up, Harrison said again,"

"Madam, quickly go and get the money. Also, invite the baron over. I'll go and see poor Lesur first. He's been hanging up for almost three days, and he's still injured. If we delay for too long, no one knows what will happen."

After saying that, he turned around and left, not giving the baroness a chance to speak at all. It was as if he had her in his grasp.

She stomped her foot and calmed down. To be able to marry into a noble family as a merchant girl and sit firmly in the position of matriarch, perhaps her political mind was not good, but her skills in house fighting were definitely not bad.

Now that there was a conflict, no matter what the reason was, he would be the one who suffered. Who asked his son to cheat his mother?

If the outside world mistakenly thought that she was the one who ordered the exchange of the Life Original Fluid, she would be finished. Divorce was very difficult in Aslan, but losing a wife was very simple.

Unlike a marriage between nobles, a baroness whose mother was not strong enough could not withstand the torment.

……

After strolling in the ancient castle until the gold coins were transferred into his account, Hadson slowly walked to the pillar that bound Lesur.

'Hanging' was obviously an exaggeration. Although the baron had given the order, the guards who carried it out were not stubborn.

After all, he was the baron's son. If he accidentally received a lunch box, they would be the ones in trouble.

The original "hanging on the pillar" had changed to "sitting next to the pillar". There were maids helping to drive away the mosquitoes beside them, and there was a plate of fruit not far away.

If it weren't for the rope on Lesur's body that was connected to the pillar and his disheveled appearance, it would be difficult to believe that he was being punished.

The two guards immediately felt awkward when they saw Hadson walking over. Taking care of one young master and offending another young master was obviously not a wise choice.

Hadson was not a pushover. He had two older brothers backing him up. It was no secret that the young masters of the baron's manor were divided into two camps.

On one hand, he had the right of inheritance, and on the other hand, he had the support of the matriarch of the manor. If it wasn't for Baron Redman suppressing him, he would have already caused a ruckus.

Side?

Don't joke around like this. No one is a fool.

Now, he had to depend on the matriarch's expression, but in the future, he had to follow the other side. How could he choose?

"Young Master Harrison, you're here!"

Nodding his head, Hadson had no intention of causing trouble for the guards. In this strictly hierarchical world, the survival of small characters was already difficult, so it was understandable that they would be able to gain benefits from both sides.

"What happened? Lesur, my poor brother, why are you tied up here?"

"What are you guys waiting for? Hurry up and untie him! I'm pitiful…"

If someone who didn't know what was going on saw this scene, they would definitely think that this was a deep brotherhood. In fact, the two of them, who were close in age, had been fighting since they were young.

"Enough, Harrison. I don't need you to be hypocritical here. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have been punished by my father!

Now, get lost! I don't want to see you for even a moment!"

Lesur roared.

Seeing this, not only was Hadson not annoyed, but he also became even more affectionate.

"Poor Lesur, you're a little delirious now. You don't even recognize your dearest brother.

Sigh, forget it. Put him down first. I'll take care of my father. Who asked me to be the elder brother? I can't watch my younger brother suffer!

……”

This touching scene made the guard's eyes glazed over. For a moment, he forgot what to do.

Before they could react, Harrison had already pulled out his knight sword and cut the rope, proving that he was serious.

At this moment, a dignified middle-aged man walked over. It was Baron Redman.

Clearly, he had seen everything that had happened.

He glared at the two guards and kicked Lesur, who was sitting beside the pillar. "Hudson, stay here. The rest of you, take this bastard and get lost," he said without any hesitation.

"What are you waiting for?" The baroness hurriedly added."Bring Master Lesur to get treated!"

No matter how well she concealed it, Harrison could feel the baroness 'heartache. Baron Redman's kick just now was not light. It sent him flying three to four meters away.

If it wasn't for Lesur's good foundation and his cultivation experience, he would have been severely injured if not killed by an ordinary person. It could be seen that Baron Redman was truly disappointed.

It was not scary to make mistakes, but it was scary to make mistakes without knowing it. In the aristocratic world, stupidity was the greatest sin.

"You've improved very quickly," Redman said with a gratified expression after the crowd had left."It's a pity that your performance just now was too much."
