As we all know, there used to be ten major families in Aser City, but now there are nine major families, but in fact, there is another family above these nine major families, which ranks above all the families, and that is the Joyce family .

The Joyce family, a baronial family with a history of more than 100 years, whose ancestor was an official knight with military exploits, was awarded a title by the kingdom at the same time, and was awarded a territory, and this territory included Aser inside the city.

So, the Joyce family is the real owner of Asai City. Although the other nine families have famous names, in fact, they do not have the slightest control over Asai City.

The annual profit distribution is the process in which the Joyce family entrusts some "entrustments" that can earn huge profits to the nine major families to operate, and take a cut from them.

This kind of management method is quite similar to the "landlord" in ancient China, but it has greater authority. Not only does it have the right to life and death in the territory, but also the scope of management is wider, not only farming, mining, mining, etc. Commercial trade and other profitable businesses are all within the scope of management.

Of course, among them, there are naturally many ways, some make more money, and naturally some make less money, such as farming, which makes less money, while in contrast, mining is very rich.

So at the beginning of each year, the families that are eligible to receive the "entrustment" from the Joyce family will try their best to compete for the "entrustment" with huge profits.

"Serve it!"

Following the words of the city lord Orlando Joyce, a man in a black butler uniform came forward carrying a tray with nine leather documents neatly arranged.

Seeing these nine leather documents, the heads of the nine families stared straight at these documents.

These nine documents represent nine commissions from the Joyce family. Each commission has a corresponding authorization from the Joyce family, but the content of the commission is different.

"You guys pass it on and have a look first!"

The owner of the city, Orlando Joyce, has long been familiar with this fiery gaze. After letting the heads of the nine major families pass it on for browsing, he waited quietly.

After receiving the documents, the nine major families browsed and passed them one by one. Soon, they were passed to Brod, the head of the Campbell family. Sean and Yuna also went to watch.

It was found that there were quite a lot of entrusted items, including farming, grassland animal husbandry, and iron ore mining. In short, there were many types, which were written in nine entrustments. However, it is obvious that the entrustments on different entrustments, the obtained The payoffs are different, and in some cases the differences are dramatic.

Such as farming entrustment and iron ore mining entrustment, the income gap between the two is absolutely several times.

"Okay, let's start expressing our opinion. The first commission is the iron ore mining in Yunshan, 30 liles east of the city. Which family is willing to contract?"

Seeing that the power of attorney had been passed on to the heads of the nine major families, the city lord Orlando Joyce said.

"My lord, the Ansius family wants to accept this commission."

As soon as he said this, a middle-aged man with a broad body and a rather rich appearance immediately expressed his opinion.

"My lord, the Fielding family also wants to accept this commission."

Almost at the same time as the Ansius family, the head of another family also spoke.

Sean has some understanding of these two families. If one of the nine families in Aser City is said to be the strongest, it is undoubtedly the Ansius family and the Fielding family.

The two families are families with extremely profound backgrounds. They are the two oldest families among the nine major families. The apprentice knights sitting in the clans were already apprentice knights more than 20 years ago. Only one step away.

Except for the city lord's mansion, which has formal knights sitting in the town, and can dominate these two families, other families are not rivals of these two families. born in a family.



"Which other family is interested in mineral entrustment?"

Seeing the statements made by the Ansius family and the Fielding family successively, the city lord Orlando Joyce nodded and looked at the remaining seven families, but he did not get a response for a long time. After all, not any family dares to fight with these two families. The family is dead.

But just when everyone thought that this year's mining would happen again in these two families, an unexpected voice sounded.

"I want to report to the city lord, the Campbell family also wants to accept this commission."

Hearing this voice, everyone couldn't help looking at Brod, the head of Campbell's family, but quickly passed him and looked at Sean standing behind him, because he was the one who said those words just now.

"Sean, you...?"

Not to mention other people, even Campbell Patriarch Brod was stunned by Sean's words, but he quickly realized that he looked anxiously at Sean.

He really didn't understand why Sean did this.

Although he really wanted to rely on the strength of Sean's apprentice knight to win a better entrustment for the family, he didn't want to compete for mineral mining in the past.

Although this entrustment is the most profitable, the strength of the two families competing for this entrustment is too strong, and it is simply not comparable to the Campbell family, even if Sean has become an apprentice knight.

After all, the apprentice knight of another family has been famous for more than 20 years, and he is not far from being a full-time knight. He doesn't think that this kind of strength is comparable to Xiao En.

"Little brother, the competition for iron ore mining is too fierce, we still..."

Even Yuna, who has been helping the family manage the business for two years and has been able to deal with all kinds of emergencies freely, has a slight change in complexion. She really didn't expect that Sean was so bold that he dared to call attention to iron mining, so she hurriedly tactfully Speak up, wanting to dispel Sean's idea of ​​competing for mineral mining.

"Father, sister, I just give it a try, even if it doesn't work, there will be no loss..."

Seeing that the two objected, Sean could only use it as an excuse to try.

But in fact, he has a certain degree of confidence in his heart. Although both of them are the peak apprentice knights, they are not far from the official knights, and he is only a beginner apprentice knight, but don't forget that he has a talent for speed.

When he was not an apprentice knight, he was able to rely on his speed talent to make Wilco incapable of resisting. Now that he has become an apprentice knight, his speed has soared. With this speed, he still can't deal with two trainee knights.

The reason why he wanted to stand up and compete for the entrustment of mineral mining was also purely for the purpose of maximizing the benefits for the Campbell family.

Now he can be said to be tied to the same rope as the Campbell's family, just like a grasshopper on the same rope. If Campbell falls down, he will lose his source of income and can only be forced to drop out of Neo Knight Academy. And if the Campbell family becomes stronger, he will naturally receive more funding.

So in order for the Campbell family to help him more financially and provide more cultivation resources, he must make the Campbell family stronger.

"Ansius, Fielding, and Campbell, since there are three families that are interested in this entrustment, let's follow the old rules. Each family assigns one person to the ring, and the last party gets the entrustment."

Orlando Joyce, the lord of the city, said slowly that the other big families felt strange that the Campbell family would participate in the scramble for mineral mining, but he couldn't see this strange look on his face, as if he already knew it would happen. like this.

Led by the city lord Orlando Joyce, the group left the conference hall and came to a brightly lit room with a huge ring.

"Uncle Clan, it's up to you to fight!"

Patriarch Antheus narrowed his eyes slightly on his chubby face, looked at an extremely burly man behind him who looked about fifty years old and said.

"yes."

The old man nodded, his eyes were shining brightly, and a palpitating aura gradually emerged from his body.

In fact, he is already in his sixties, but because he has practiced chivalry and maintained his unbeatable condition for a longer period of time, he looks only in his fifties.

The head of the Fielding family glanced at the direction of the Campbell family, and then gave instructions to the man behind him.

"Captain Molly, please forgive me!"

"yes."

This is a thin old man with a thin body, but it gives people an extremely refined feeling like pouring metal.

On Campbell's side, Sean also stepped into the ring.

Standing on the ring, the extremely burly old man looked at the thin old man with caution and fear in his eyes, and said.

"It seems that you have improved a lot this year!"

"You should be too?"

The skinny old man had a sneer on his face, then looked at Xiao En beside him and said.

"Although I really want to compete with you, but a little mouse got in, how about getting rid of the little mouse first, and then fighting?"

"Also."

The extremely burly old man glanced at Xiao En's direction, nodded and said, the suggestion of the thin old man can be said to be exactly what he wants.

Whoosh!

The two moved, and they rushed towards Sean almost at the same time. Obviously, just like in the discussion, the two wanted to get rid of Sean in advance.

"careful!"

Under the stage, Broad, the head of Campbell's family, couldn't help becoming anxious when he saw such a scene. He couldn't help scolding the two for their despicability. He didn't expect that the two apprentice knights who had been famous for more than 20 years would join forces to deal with Shaw. Well, a newbie knight apprentice.

He doesn't care if he can win the mining rights, but if Xiao En has an accident in this competition, he will regret it.

At this time, he already regretted bringing Sean to this banquet. If he had known this, he should have endured it for a few more years. When Sean became stronger and even became an official knight, it would not be too late to fight for it.

Whoosh!

Facing the figures of the two people rushing swiftly from left to right, Sean showed no fear, drew his sword, and rushed out with a "whoosh".

Shua!

In an instant, the speed of the explosion was astonishing, and in the eyes of ordinary people, there was even an afterimage.

Seeing this, everyone's complexion changed, even the city lord Orlando Joyce's expression moved slightly, and he said in a voice that he could only hear.

"Sure enough..."
