Gould’s family members greeted the hired porters and kept unloading the goods they put on.
A large number of wooden boxes were piled up in the cabin, and the boxes were nailed to death. The cargo inside is very heavy, and the porter has no way of knowing what the cargo is, but can always smell the sulphur wafting from nowhere.
The other batch of goods is too pleasing, because it is a large number of tanned deerskins, and the quantity is quite large.
There are many other furs, many of which are rare and rare.
The porter carried the wealthiest Gould, and sold his physical strength to get a silver coin. It seems that the buying and selling of a silver coin is very popular, but they also know that the lowest price for a bundle of deerskin they carry on their shoulders is three silver coins.
Because all the leather here has been processed once, the deerskin is draped on the body as a blanket, and after some tailoring, it can be quickly made into a leather jacket.
Either pulling or carrying a lot of valuables in his own hands, saying that it is impossible without greed. But the workers didn't dare to be greedy for ink, just because the sword-wielding warriors that Gould kept were the overseers, and their greedy behavior would be beaten.
These farmer cameo porters, taking firm steps, continue to move Gould’s darlings to the mansion.
Mansion? Is it really a mansion?
A wealthy household like Gould, his home is not excessively luxurious, or rather simple. The simplicity also reveals solemnity, because most of the longhouses are old houses with ages.
Right at the corner of the settlement of the Ankras tribe, there is an area surrounded by tall wooden walls.
This wall is unusual!
It is not a simple fence, it is more like a wooden city wall.
Thick pine wood is deeply pierced underground, and countless pine wood forms a wooden wall, which is tied with iron nails and twine rope. There are scaffolds for people to climb behind the wooden walls, and there are two wooden towers at the only gate.
In fact, there is a small door hidden on the wall. Usually this small door is hidden by pine branches and dead branches. It is the escape route for the Gould family in times of crisis.
Is really dangerous? It hasn't existed for decades.
The Gould family lived in this area. It was Gould’s father who began to build a wall that could wrap the entire family house. When Gould came to power, the wall became able to wrap the residences of servants and mercenaries. There is even a well-maintained empty field within the fence. For a long time, this empty field has been a place for mercenaries to gather and train. Now, it has naturally become a material unloading field.
Gould not only has a warehouse dedicated to stocks, but also a cellar for stocking important materials.
When the goods are returned to the warehouse, all the goods have to be placed in the unloading yard and counted.
The sky is getting a little gloomy, and the boats and cars have been tired for so many days. It is unrealistic to say that Gould is not tired.
This obese guy just wants to drink the mead from his hometown and meet his children.
He has already thought about it. After returning home, he will cultivate for a few days. During this period, he ordered his men to rectify the supplies, and then organized a fleet to go straight to the Mellaren market and join the eldest son's family.
The situation has changed slightly.
For the sake of money, Gould really wouldn't betray his family, and he could sell everything else, provided that the buyer gave enough money.
Those boxes with the smell of sulfur have always been a source of interest to the Gould family.
"Mom, Dad, never came back with a bunch of sulfur?"
"No one knows what your dad got back. Anyway, it must be a good thing." Gould's fifth wife supported the cute little head of his son.
Others, they also talked about the strange box.
The three older brothers got together and wondered whether their father really got the sulfur back.
The boys of the family naturally have to take on the life mission of expanding the business route for the family when they grow up.
As for the daughters, their job is probably to get married when they grow up.
Gould has two daughters, but he doesn’t think much about his daughters. If he meets a trustworthy business partner, or needs to complete a major trade, he will betroth his daughter out.
Just as the four boys continued to speculate and discuss, Gould led a kind of noble man back home.
Those mercenaries, even those standing on wooden wall scaffolds or wooden towers with short spears, stood solemnly, and lightly hooked their heads to salute their golden master.
As for the porters who have finished moving the goods, they don’t have the right to enter the homes of big merchants on weekdays. After looking around and sighing, they just want to get paid for themselves.
Seeing that the well-dressed businessmen came, they first greeted them cheerfully, and the tribal chief Anklas also came, and they stayed where they were.
Gould noticed them and immediately threw a bag of money to Jeflo: "Jeflo, give them the money, one for each."
"Oh, my lord. But the rest of the money..."
"If you can't finish it, keep it for yourself."
"Yes! Thank you, sir." After that, Yevlo smiled and went away.
Gould was in a very good mood. After having a face-to-face meeting with his family, he was delighted to see his empty field. The goods had been piled up into a hill.
He twisted his fat body, proudly stretched out his arms, and met the businessmen and the leader: "Look, it's all from the Ross. Next, allow me to introduce you a treasure."
After all, Gould ordered the two mercenary men to use the blade of the axe in the waist, not to open the nailed wooden board.
For an instant, those businessmen who were digging their heads out were completely attracted by the yellow-white lumps in the box.
After a brief introduction, the onlookers have the most basic understanding.
In fact, everyone knows that sulfur is a good thing. Many people are bothered by lice and fleas, and the wounds bitten by parasites are unbearable. However, rubbing with ground sulfur powder usually has a good effect.
It’s okay now, Gould specifically announced that this is a baby that can clear the deepest dirt on the body, including all the fleas and lice in the hair and clothes. He talked so much, as if a sulphur soap packet cures all diseases.
As for the price, one piece is twenty silver coins. Gould bit the price to death in one bite. He was afraid that his own price was low, and his colleagues would rush to buy it frantically, and then shipped it to the Merlaren Bazaar to make the difference. Twenty silver coins a piece, he promised to sell anywhere, to anyone, at this price.
Only the purchase price, Gould will not tell anyone that this item only costs three silver coins.
Angrieff, he doesn't believe in Gould's rhetoric. The only thing that can prove the miraculous effect is the field test.
Ungriffe put his hands in the mud, so that the crevices of his fingers were also full of mud. He even let out a rhetoric, if he even washed the dirt in his nails, he would buy at least ten yuan.
So, the great leader Ungriffe became the first member of the Unkras tribe to use soap.
His hands were washed clean, and rubbing the skin on his hands could make noises, especially between the nails. Angrieff never expected that his nails could be so clean.
In a sense, what Gould is doing now is trade fairs.
Up to one thousand two hundred pieces of various soaps were shipped. Goodall was marked with a clear price. Twenty silver coins were added with sulfur, and ten silver coins were not added.
On the issue of pricing, Gould still dare not let go of his hands because it is the first sale. Those who are looking for cost performance will buy dark brown ordinary soap, and those who are looking for luxury will buy golden sulfur soap.
He particularly understands a reality, that is, the wealthy households in the south, they always do not ask for the best but the most expensive. Because in this era, basically the best is the most expensive. Powerful people need to show their strong economic power to their tribes and potential competitors through consumption.
Because of the strong economic strength, it means that this person can spend money to recruit a lot of temporary mercenaries!
Gould’s wealth is enough for him to pay 500 people "military pay" and work for himself for a year and a half. In terms of weapons and equipment, mercenaries need to raise their own.
Selling an elaborate steel sword at a terrifying high price of two thousand silver coins, Gould was delighted. When he was sailing, he had a plan that was to equip his guard with the best sword!
Private armed forces, the number of people can not be large, so it is easy to manage yourself. At the same time, these people must each have the ability to fight ten, and some of the best weapons are enough for them to do this.
For this reason, Gould doesn’t think his own financial resources can do this.
Even if it is for a stronger strength in the future, setting foot on the ship of the Rus is a shortcut to success.
Even at the price of one twenty silver coin, Gould still sold two hundred of all the sulfur soap, and all four thousand silver coins flowed into his own bank on this day and night.
Among them, Ungriffe, who was shocked by a strong spirit, bought twenty yuan for him alone! The rest of the merchants, some bought ten yuan, some bought a few yuan.
Gould is in a very good mood. They bought it by more than a dozen talents, which only means that they want to use it by themselves.
In addition to the money from selling swords before, when the idlers and others dispersed, Gould, sitting in his spacious and bright long house, holding a linen pocket containing sixty pounds of silver coins, faced the family in a mood. So happy.
"My lord, it's not much money? We made so much today?!" Gould's eldest wife was both excited and nervous.
"Why, are you afraid of making more money?!"
"No, I am not……"
"My sister. Is it okay to have more money? Isn't most of the money your son's?" His second wife was a little bit mean, which just explained the fact that Gould's great Part of the wealth will eventually be inherited by the eldest son.
Gould’s eldest wife is the first wife, although she is old and frail, because she is the mother of the eldest son, in this family, Gould still relies on her very much.
As for the second wife, this woman was the daughter of Gould’s trading partner when he was young. This marriage was only for the business of Nubuat.
As for the remaining three women, all of them were ex-servants. They were young women who had been “saved” from unknown sources when Gould was scanning the goods at the Mellaren Bazaar. Due to their humble status, they can sit and watch the two women's quarrel, and secretly hope that their husbands can give themselves and their children more money.
The eldest wife could hear the barb in the words, and she retorted: "Could it be that your son's property will be missing? Your son has reached the age when he should be married, when the time comes, the adult will give him a property."
"Is that enough?" The second wife immediately turned to look at her husband, and said solemnly: "Sir, my son will definitely give birth to a grandson for you. At that time..."
"Shut up, you guys!" Gould pretended to be angry, then he chuckled with his money bag.
The family sits in a long room, each on a comfortable leather cushion, facing the brazier in the middle, sitting and watching the bickering between the two old women.
Gould actually knew that although the two wives would always quarrel about their wealth, it seems that it is the case at present.
Sons, they did not despise each other because of their mothers. They are brothers to each other, although they are slightly different in age, they are also friends who have played together since childhood.
The sons are quite united, that is, their mothers are always jealous. For this reason, Gould is too lazy to take care of them, and is happy to look forward to it in the distant Roseburg.
Nowadays, times are about to change.
In fact, sometimes looking at the quarrels of his wives, Gould also has a kind of unexplained fun.
Because in Roseburg, the two close-knit female slaves next to them are two timid cats who have been at the mercy of themselves, allowing themselves to do anything, without even the slightest intention of resisting. After such a long time, life has become a bit boring instead.
Gould didn't mind letting these two Briton women become their sixth and seventh sons, and it is better to have the sixth and seventh sons.
He coughed twice and ordered everyone to keep quiet.
Gould looked around and looked at the faces of all his family members, including his two daughters whom he didn't take very seriously.
"Now, except for the absence of Snoreva (the eldest son, the name originally means the white fox), you are all here. Now, I want to announce a big event to you!"
"Let's go ahead, sir. Never, you want Snoreva to be him..." The elder wife is not in a good mood. Now that the husband mentioned his son's name suddenly, the situation has changed again. Her eyes couldn't help but look at her **** who was arguing with herself, and she was full of pride in her expression.
Gould shook his head and jokingly said: "You are already discussing, if I'm not here, who will divide the wealth? It's ridiculous! I prayed with God, God will give me at least 20 years of life, and my life will be. Very long time."
Of course, his wives didn't believe him when he said these things. God? Even if God exists, how can he take care of his own family? To be favored, that is to favor a noble person like Ungriffe as the leader.
Gould held the purse and continued to announce: "I have decided. This year, we will move."
"What? Moving?" The eldest wife was taken aback: "It's not always moving to Mellaren? With our Snoreva?"
"No! It's Roseburg who moved to the Ross people."
As soon as this statement came out, no one questioned it.
"It seems that I didn't make it clear?" Gould said loudly, "It's Roseburg! The home of the Ross people! I have already decided that I will not be a winter guest in the future. I will move my home. I will take my money. Ship it all, and you! Follow me too."
"My lord, are you serious?" The eldest wife's eyes were full of doubts about this move.
"Why, are you suspicious of me?" Gould asked displeasedly.
"I just... I have some doubts about the Roths. Even if they are allies, they are not our Ankrasians."
"This is not something a woman like you needs to worry about. I am the owner of wealth. It is also my business where I move my house." Of course, moving house is also a big deal for tribes who like to emigrate. Nowadays, for the Ankras people who have settled down and are actively becoming a farming nation, moving is definitely a huge risk.
Gould think about it, he can’t be too arbitrary. He sat on the leather cushion and immediately introduced the local customs of Roseburg to his family. For the sons, Gould is an introduction to the commercial value of the North, and even a great stranger.
"To tell you the truth, I know that the only child of the great leader of the Ros, the child named Rurik, this child has indeed been favored by God. Just like those yellow upa, it is the creation of Rurik. I have shipped a surprising number of upas, and I will transport them to the Mellaren market and sell them all. We will earn at least one hundred and fifty pounds of silver coins! Look, I am already sixty pounds of silver coins here! Boy! Guys, I’m old, can your five brothers control this family business? I want to find a new backer for you! That’s the Ross man. I’ve made friends with that Rurik. In the future, you Inherit this family business and Rurik inherits the Ross tribe. You are friends with each other so that our wealth can be secured."
Regardless of whether the children understand or not, Gould has decided to go.
And he also made it very clear about the time limit for the move, that is, this autumn the fleet will go north and the whole family will immigrate to Roseburg. As for the home in the homeland, it will continue to exist, that is, its status can only be reduced to a warehouse. He sent a little manpower to stay and watch the place~www.novelhall.com~ He felt that his own explanations were enough, and his family did not have any. There is room for rebuttal, everyone, especially the sons whose hopes are high, they must accept a reality. That is to say, the future "Gould of Unkras" will become "Gould of Ross", and the family identity will be changed and all will become the Roths.
Gould was tired, he stood up and did not say anything to his family.
Regarding the supervision of moving the goods to the warehouse, the movers are turned into their own mercenaries, and the supervisors are sons.
Gould just wanted to get a good night's sleep. Before that, he couldn't wait to order his servants to burn some pots of hot water. Finally, he dragged his fat body into the wooden barrel of the bath, and the clear water was also dissolved into grayish white by the sulfur soap.
He ordered the two close-fitting Briton women to wipe their hair and rub the mud with a rough linen cloth. After getting the promise to give birth to a boy, that is, to upgrade their status, their service has become increasingly hardworking.
The invigorating enjoyment allows Gould to ignore some of the troubles of life for the time being. As for tomorrow, there are still future days...
He couldn't help closing his eyes when he was soaking in the wooden barrel, and suddenly a thought came to his mind.
"Ah! I'm afraid that in ten days and twenty days, news of the Russ attack on the Gotlanders will reach me. Russ, I hope you can win the battle. I hope. Your victory will not interfere with Mela. Lun Market."
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!

Gould was tired, he stood up and did not say anything to his family.
Regarding the supervision of moving the goods to the warehouse, the movers are turned into their own mercenaries, and the supervisors are sons.
Gould just wanted to get a good night's sleep. Before that, he couldn't wait to order his servants to burn some pots of hot water. Finally, he dragged his fat body into the wooden barrel of the bath, and the clear water was also dissolved into grayish white by the sulfur soap.
He ordered the two close-fitting Briton women to wipe their hair and rub the mud with a rough linen cloth. After getting the promise to give birth to a boy, that is, to upgrade their status, their service has become increasingly hardworking.
The invigorating enjoyment allows Gould to ignore some of the troubles of life for the time being. As for tomorrow, there are still future days...
He couldn't help closing his eyes when he was soaking in the wooden barrel, and suddenly a thought came to his mind.
"Ah! I'm afraid that in ten days and twenty days, news of the Russ attack on the Gotlanders will reach me. Russ, I hope you can win the battle. I hope. Your victory will not interfere with Mela. Lun Market."
Gould's family members greeted the hired porters and kept unloading the goods they put on.A large number of wooden boxes were piled up in the cabin, and the boxes were nailed to death. The cargo inside is very heavy, and the porter has no way of knowing what the cargo is, but can always smell the sulphur wafting from nowhere.The other batch of goods is too pleasing, because it is a large number of tanned deerskins, and the quantity is quite large.There are many other furs, many of which are rare and rare.The porter carried the wealthiest Gould, and sold his physical strength to get a silver coin. It seems that the buying and selling of a silver coin is very popular, but they also know that the lowest price for a bundle of deerskin they carry on their shoulders is three silver coins.Because all the leather here has been processed once, the deerskin is draped on the body as a blanket, and after some tailoring, it can be quickly made into a leather jacket. Either pulling or carrying a lot of valuables in his own hands, saying that it is impossible without greed. But the workers didn't dare to be greedy for ink, just because the sword-wielding warriors that Gould kept were the overseers, and their greedy behavior would be beaten.These farmer cameo porters, taking firm steps, continue to move Gould's darlings to the mansion.Mansion? Is it really a mansion? A wealthy household like Gould, his home is not excessively luxurious, or rather simple. The simplicity also reveals solemnity, because most of the longhouses are old houses with ages.Right at the corner of the settlement of the Ankras tribe, there is an area surrounded by tall wooden walls.This wall is unusual!It is not a simple fence, it is more like a wooden city wall.Thick pine wood is deeply pierced underground, and countless pine wood forms a wooden wall, which is tied with iron nails and twine rope. There are scaffolds for people to climb behind the wooden walls, and there are two wooden towers at the only gate.In fact, there is a small door hidden on the wall. Usually this small door is hidden by pine branches and dead branches. It is the escape route for the Gould family in times of crisis.Is really dangerous? It hasn't existed for decades.The Gould family lived in this area. It was Gould's father who began to build a wall that could wrap the entire family house. When Gould came to power, the wall became able to wrap the residences of servants and mercenaries. There is even a well-maintained empty field within the fence. For a long time, this empty field has been a place for mercenaries to gather and train. Now, it has naturally become a material unloading field.Gould not only has a warehouse dedicated to stocks, but also a cellar for stocking important materials.When the goods are returned to the warehouse, all the goods have to be placed in the unloading yard and counted.The sky is getting a little gloomy, and the boats and cars have been tired for so many days. It is unrealistic to say that Gould is not tired.This obese guy just wants to drink the mead from his hometown and meet his children.He has already thought about it. After returning home, he will cultivate for a few days. During this period, he ordered his men to rectify the supplies, and then organized a fleet to go straight to the Mellaren market and join the eldest son's family.The situation has changed slightly.For the sake of money, Gould really wouldn't betray his family, and he could sell everything else, provided that the buyer gave enough money.Those boxes with the smell of sulfur have always been a source of interest to the Gould family. "Mom, Dad, never came back with a bunch of sulfur?" "No one knows what your dad got back. Anyway, it must be a good thing." Gould's fifth wife supported the cute little head of his son.Others, they also talked about the strange box.The three older brothers got together and wondered whether their father really got the sulfur back.The boys of the family naturally have to take on the life mission of expanding the business route for the family when they grow up.As for the daughters, their job is probably to get married when they grow up.Gould has two daughters, but he doesn't think much about his daughters. If he meets a trustworthy business partner, or needs to complete a major trade, he will betroth his daughter out.Just as the four boys continued to speculate and discuss, Gould led a kind of noble man back home.Those mercenaries, even those standing on wooden wall scaffolds or wooden towers with short spears, stood solemnly, and lightly hooked their heads to salute their golden master.As for the porters who have finished moving the goods, they don't have the right to enter the homes of big merchants on weekdays. After looking around and sighing, they just want to get paid for themselves. Seeing that the well-dressed businessmen came, they first greeted them cheerfully, and the tribal chief Anklas also came, and they stayed where they were. Gould noticed them and immediately threw a bag of money to Jeflo: "Jeflo, give them the money, one for each." "Oh, my lord. But the rest of the money..." "If you can't finish it, keep it for yourself." "Yes! Thank you, sir." After that, Yevlo smiled and went away.Gould was in a very good mood. After having a face-to-face meeting with his family, he was delighted to see his empty field. The goods had been piled up into a hill. He twisted his fat body, proudly stretched out his arms, and met the businessmen and the leader: "Look, it's all from the Ross. Next, allow me to introduce you a treasure."After all, Gould ordered the two mercenary men to use the blade of the axe in the waist, not to open the nailed wooden board.For an instant, those businessmen who were digging their heads out were completely attracted by the yellow-white lumps in the box.After a brief introduction, the onlookers have the most basic understanding.In fact, everyone knows that sulfur is a good thing. Many people are bothered by lice and fleas, and the wounds bitten by parasites are unbearable. However, rubbing with ground sulfur powder usually has a good effect.It's okay now, Gould specifically announced that this is a baby that can clear the deepest dirt on the body, including all the fleas and lice in the hair and clothes. He talked so much, as if a sulphur soap packet cures all diseases.As for the price, one piece is twenty silver coins. Gould bit the price to death in one bite. He was afraid that his own price was low, and his colleagues would rush to buy it frantically, and then shipped it to the Merlaren Bazaar to make the difference. Twenty silver coins a piece, he promised to sell anywhere, to anyone, at this price.Only the purchase price, Gould will not tell anyone that this item only costs three silver coins.Angrieff, he doesn't believe in Gould's rhetoric. The only thing that can prove the miraculous effect is the field test.Ungriffe put his hands in the mud, so that the crevices of his fingers were also full of mud. He even let out a rhetoric, if he even washed the dirt in his nails, he would buy at least ten yuan.So, the great leader Ungriffe became the first member of the Unkras tribe to use soap.His hands were washed clean, and rubbing the skin on his hands could make noises, especially between the nails. Angrieff never expected that his nails could be so clean.In a sense, what Gould is doing now is trade fairs.Up to one thousand two hundred pieces of various soaps were shipped. Goodall was marked with a clear price. Twenty silver coins were added with sulfur, and ten silver coins were not added.On the issue of pricing, Gould still dare not let go of his hands because it is the first sale. Those who are looking for cost performance will buy dark brown ordinary soap, and those who are looking for luxury will buy golden sulfur soap.He particularly understands a reality, that is, the wealthy households in the south, they always do not ask for the best but the most expensive. Because in this era, basically the best is the most expensive. Powerful people need to show their strong economic power to their tribes and potential competitors through consumption.Because of the strong economic strength, it means that this person can spend money to recruit a lot of temporary mercenaries!Gould's wealth is enough for him to pay 500 people "military pay" and work for himself for a year and a half. In terms of weapons and equipment, mercenaries need to raise their own. Selling an elaborate steel sword at a terrifying high price of two thousand silver coins, Gould was delighted. When he was sailing, he had a plan that was to equip his guard with the best sword!Private armed forces, the number of people can not be large, so it is easy to manage yourself. At the same time, these people must each have the ability to fight ten, and some of the best weapons are enough for them to do this.For this reason, Gould doesn't think his own financial resources can do this.Even if it is for a stronger strength in the future, setting foot on the ship of the Rus is a shortcut to success.Even at the price of one twenty silver coin, Gould still sold two hundred of all the sulfur soap, and all four thousand silver coins flowed into his own bank on this day and night.Among them, Ungriffe, who was shocked by a strong spirit, bought twenty yuan for him alone! The rest of the merchants, some bought ten yuan, some bought a few yuan.Gould is in a very good mood. They bought it by more than a dozen talents, which only means that they want to use it by themselves.In addition to the money from selling swords before, when the idlers and others dispersed, Gould, sitting in his spacious and bright long house, holding a linen pocket containing sixty pounds of silver coins, faced the family in a mood. So happy. "My lord, it's not much money? We made so much today?!" Gould's eldest wife was both excited and nervous. "Why, are you afraid of making more money?!" "No, I am not""My sister. Is it okay to have more money? Isn't most of the money your son's?" His second wife was a little bit mean, which just explained the fact that Gould's great Part of the wealth will eventually be inherited by the eldest son.Gould's eldest wife is the first wife, although she is old and frail, because she is the mother of the eldest son, in this family, Gould still relies on her very much.As for the second wife, this woman was the daughter of Gould's trading partner when he was young. This marriage was only for the business of Nubuat.As for the remaining three women, all of them were ex-servants. They were young women who had been saved from unknown sources when Gould was scanning the goods at the Mellaren Bazaar. Due to their humble status, they can sit and watch the two women's quarrel, and secretly hope that their husbands can give themselves and their children more money.The eldest wife could hear the barb in the words, and she retorted: "Could it be that your son's property will be missing? Your son has reached the age when he should be married, when the time comes, the adult will give him a property." "Is that enough?" The second wife immediately turned to look at her husband, and said solemnly: "Sir, my son will definitely give birth to a grandson for you. At that time..." "Shut up, you guys!" Gould pretended to be angry, then he chuckled with his money bag.The family sits in a long room, each on a comfortable leather cushion, facing the brazier in the middle, sitting and watching the bickering between the two old women.Gould actually knew that although the two wives would always quarrel about their wealth, it seems that it is the case at present.Sons, they did not despise each other because of their mothers. They are brothers to each other, although they are slightly different in age, they are also friends who have played together since childhood.The sons are quite united, that is, their mothers are always jealous. For this reason, Gould is too lazy to take care of them, and is happy to look forward to it in the distant Roseburg.Nowadays, times are about to change.In fact, sometimes looking at the quarrels of his wives, Gould also has a kind of unexplained fun.Because in Roseburg, the two close-knit female slaves next to them are two timid cats who have been at the mercy of themselves, allowing themselves to do anything, without even the slightest intention of resisting. After such a long time, life has become a bit boring instead.Gould didn't mind letting these two Briton women become their sixth and seventh sons, and it is better to have the sixth and seventh sons.He coughed twice and ordered everyone to keep quiet.Gould looked around and looked at the faces of all his family members, including his two daughters whom he didn't take very seriously."Now, except for the absence of Snoreva the eldest son, the name originally means the white fox, you are all here. Now, I want to announce a big event to you!" "Let's go ahead, sir. Never, you want Snoreva to be him..." The elder wife is not in a good mood. Now that the husband mentioned his son's name suddenly, the situation has changed again. Her eyes couldn't help but look at her **** who was arguing with herself, and she was full of pride in her expression.Gould shook his head and jokingly said: "You are already discussing, if I'm not here, who will divide the wealth? It's ridiculous! I prayed with God, God will give me at least 20 years of life, and my life will be. Very long time."Of course, his wives didn't believe him when he said these things. God? Even if God exists, how can he take care of his own family? To be favored, that is to favor a noble person like Ungriffe as the leader.Gould held the purse and continued to announce: "I have decided. This year, we will move." "What? Moving?" The eldest wife was taken aback: "It's not always moving to Mellaren? With our Snoreva?" "No! It's Roseburg who moved to the Ross people."As soon as this statement came out, no one questioned it."It seems that I didn't make it clear?" Gould said loudly, "It's Roseburg! The home of the Ross people! I have already decided that I will not be a winter guest in the future. I will move my home. I will take my money. Ship it all, and you! Follow me too." "My lord, are you serious?" The eldest wife's eyes were full of doubts about this move. "Why, are you suspicious of me?" Gould asked displeasedly. "I just... I have some doubts about the Roths. Even if they are allies, they are not our Ankrasians.""This is not something a woman like you needs to worry about. I am the owner of wealth. It is also my business where I move my house." Of course, moving house is also a big deal for tribes who like to emigrate. Nowadays, for the Ankras people who have settled down and are actively becoming a farming nation, moving is definitely a huge risk.Gould think about it, he can't be too arbitrary. He sat on the leather cushion and immediately introduced the local customs of Roseburg to his family. For the sons, Gould is an introduction to the commercial value of the North, and even a great stranger."To tell you the truth, I know that the only child of the great leader of the Ros, the child named Rurik, this child has indeed been favored by God. Just like those yellow upa, it is the creation of Rurik. I have shipped a surprising number of upas, and I will transport them to the Mellaren market and sell them all. We will earn at least one hundred and fifty pounds of silver coins! Look, I am already sixty pounds of silver coins here! Boy! Guys, I'm old, can your five brothers control this family business? I want to find a new backer for you! That's the Ross man. I've made friends with that Rurik. In the future, you Inherit this family business and Rurik inherits the Ross tribe. You are friends with each other so that our wealth can be secured." Regardless of whether the children understand or not, Gould has decided to go.And he also made it very clear about the time limit for the move, that is, this autumn the fleet will go north and the whole family will immigrate to Roseburg. As for the home in the homeland, it will continue to exist, that is, its status can only be reduced to a warehouse. He sent a little manpower to stay and watch the place~www.novelhall.com~ He felt that his own explanations were enough, and his family did not have any. There is room for rebuttal, everyone, especially the sons whose hopes are high, they must accept a reality. That is to say, the future "Gould of Unkras" will become "Gould of Ross", and the family identity will be changed and all will become the Roths.Gould was tired, he stood up and did not say anything to his family.
