On the ring, the girl with two-handed sword was lying on the ground, a short sword was inserted into her smooth abdomen, and the whole person was dying. The girl with sword and shield was slashed by the last blow of the opponent's thigh, which was also dripping with blood.

Under the ring, the audience who won the money cheered, and the scolding that lost the money was endless.

The Sword and Shield girl stood silently on the ring with a numb expression on her face, she was waiting for the final decision off the stage.

In the box, Miss Pillow said to Charles, "If the owner of the losing party doesn't say anything within a minute, it means that he has given up on the loser."

"If no one wants to buy the loser for the next minute, then it's up to the audience to decide whether to take her life or not."

A minute passed quickly, and Charles sighed and said, "I'll buy her."

This **** world, he can't completely break it now, save one if he can save one.

At this time, Miss Pillow leaned down, kissed Charles fiercely, and said, "Congratulations, sir, on your victory."

Then the four young ladies next to him presented various "books without elaboration" to Charles in different ways.

In the end, Charles didn't say anything, and let the young ladies who were waiting for the master's reward scolded him for being stingy.

At this time, the door of the box was pushed open, and the girl with the two-handed sword on the stage just now was carried in on a stretcher. At the same time, her slave contract was also in Charles' hands.

Charles frowned and looked at the young girl. The wound on her body was simply wrapped with a clean sackcloth tape several times after hemostasis, and there was no effective quality at all.

The girl stared at the ceiling with dull eyes, not responding to the new master who came to her side.

Charles shook his head and used healing to heal her two wounds.

At this time, the second "Double Dance" of the ring competition began again, and the blood on the slate had not been cleaned up.

There were ten "proms" that night, and Charles only bought a total of four losers, and the others died on the spot.

?????▇?

Gunnar Nordahl in the carriage looked at Charles with a smile and asked, "Have you had a good time these days?"

Charles Pi replied without a smile: "Thank you, brother, for bringing me here. It just cost you money, and I feel a little sorry."

Gunner laughed and said, "Brother is just making a small profit, brother, I have no loss."

Charles said humbly: "Of course, when it comes to making money, I still have to learn more from my brother."

At this time, Charles was on his way back to the city after attending the "prom" for the fifth time. Such "prom" is held every four months, and today is the end day.

In the past five days, his empty-handed white wolf-style betting winning rate reached 80%, which made the dealer Gunnar Nordahl a little frightened, for fear that he would suddenly play a huge sum of money that day.

Luckily, Charles knew how to balance, and every time 9 won, the money was within the pocket money range for the rich.

Gunner shook his head and said, "Tsk tsk tsk, I didn't expect my brother to be a flower-loving person, can I keep it at home?"

Charles "haha" twice, and said deliberately displeased: "Brother doesn't look down on me, doesn't he?"

"I've already bought a manor in the south, let alone forty or so, if it's more... I'll buy a few more manors if it's a big deal."

During these five nights, more than 60 "pair dances" and "multiple dances" were performed, and Charles bought all the losers who survived.

Gunner gave Charles a thumbs up and said, "It's still my brother who has ambition."

He then asked, "The ones who have served you these days are not bad, aren't they?"

Charles said with glowing eyes, "Of course that's excellent."

He can be sure that as long as he shows the slightest dissatisfaction, the young ladies in the boxes will be dead in the sewers of Florence before the sun rises tomorrow.

Gunner waved his hand and said, "Then they will all be given to my brother."

Charles put a smile on his face and said, "Thank you, brother."

Then Gunner's face darkened, and he said deliberately angrily: "Brother, there is something you really did not do well, brother, I'm going to talk about you."

As a result, Charles raised his head, looked at the top of the car without speaking, and ignored Gunner.

Gunner said gloomily, "Brother, I'm about to get started with that thorny rose, how can you cut off your beard?"

Charles smiled smugly and said, "No way, who made me handsome and rich."

Gunner looked contemptuous and said, "Tsk, be careful you pee on your shoes before you're twenty."

Charles clasped his hands and said triumphantly, "Hey, I think it's you, brother, who didn't walk by the river and got wet shoes."

Gunner suddenly stared at Charles, looking like he wanted to hit someone.

Charles took out a roll of parchment from the storage ring and handed it to Gunner, and said, "I know the secret recipe of an elf family, do you want to know, brother?"

Gunner took the parchment and opened it, frowned slightly, and asked, "Why are you buying this place, cutting down trees and selling wood?"

Charles replied: "A few days ago, my big housekeeper, A Fu, went to raise all the bandits in that place. He thinks that the place is good. There are rivers and roads. It can be used for building workshops and farming."

That place is really good. To the east is the main road going in and out of the Principality of Milan, to the south the river to the west leads to the foreign trade city north of the Elf Tree Sea, to the north to Dajiang, and you can turn a corner on the way to the Slime Basin. The first choice for split bases.

It's just that there are less flat land and more hills in that place, and people from the Duke of Milan [Jiu Jiu Novel] have no interest there.

The latest news that Charles got was that there were iron ore veins in that place, which the bandits discovered not long ago.

Gunner's brows didn't loosen, he said, "This place is big enough to build a town."

Charles sighed and said, "No way, only a place big enough to grow food is enough. In case there is another drought or snow disaster in the Northland in a few years, it will be convenient to get some food."

As soon as he explained this, Gunner was relieved. Gunner knew about Charles' mobilization of food for disaster relief a few years ago.

It's just that Gunnar is still a little worried. With the system of the Principality of Milan, Charles can completely manage this place as a country within a country, which is not allowed for the Nordahl family.

At this time, Charles said: "Well, we lease this land for ninety-nine years, and the tax is calculated on a tax-inclusive system. The rent is paid every three years. All the amounts are negotiated at the time of signing the agreement and will not be changed."

"We have our own executive and judicial powers in this place."

"At the same time, we promise that the guards in this place will not be equipped with shields, wear metal armor, and will not ride horses."

Gunner looked at Charles, always feeling that something was wrong.

But this is not impossible.

First of all, light infantry without shield and armor protection is scum in front of iron cavalry.

Secondly, the administration and judiciary of the cities of the Duchy of Milan are actually controlled by local elected people, and the Grand Duke has the final judicial power.

But basically no city will bring the lawsuit to the Grand Duke, the trivial matters are resolved under the framework of one city~lightnovelpub.net~ Only when there is a conflict between the cities will the lawsuit be brought to the Grand Duke. before.

Charles's place is basically the same, except that the election is not there.

Gunner put away the parchment, and said, "I can't decide this matter. When you are free, come to Milan to talk to the Grand Duke."

Charles breathed a sigh of relief. Gunner's lack of objection meant that this matter did not exceed the Nordall family's bottom line, as long as Charles and the others paid their taxes and rent on time and did not evade taxes.

As for what happened next, Charles felt that Gunner was going to cry many years later, and maybe jump into the river.

The carriage stopped at the hotel where Charles was staying, and he did not change places during this time.

But when he walked to the door of the room, he felt a familiar murderous aura gushing out from behind the door.

He pushed open the door of the room, and saw Artoria standing in the room with the dumb hair on her head standing like a lightning rod.

A hot-looking beauty stood in front of Arturia and said to her respectfully, "Madam, are you back?"
