Chapter 53: Attention
"To the beautiful Miss Venal..."
"When you receive this letter, I must have already started my journey home..."
"For some reasons, I think I have to go back to my hometown to see my father, so I have to leave here temporarily."
"The days away are relatively long... Before I knew it, I had already been in Kutu City for a year."
"In the past year, I have met many people. Some of them are honest and reliable, some are very interesting, and they are all good friends... During the days when I was away from my hometown, they gave me new fun, calmed my mind, and enabled me to move forward..."
"But what makes me happiest is meeting you..."
Vinar's hand holding the letter couldn't help but tremble. At this moment, his heart skipped a beat and he quickly continued to look forward.
"The days I met you were very brief, and we met only very rarely, but every time we met, I would feel anticipation and joy in my heart... I don't know if you feel the same way, but I really can't control my emotions..."
"When I was in my hometown, I heard that a white horse on a distant grassland would always meet its own rider, just like flowers always match girls, so suitable..."
"I hope that in the future, every day after that, I can see you and see what you look like..."
…
Sitting upright on the big bed, Vinar read the letter in his hand several times, his heart beating very fast unconsciously.
"Is this a sign of affection?"
Sitting on the head of the bed, she couldn't help but have this thought in her mind, and her face became particularly rosy, as if she was drunk.
Sitting there, she moved around involuntarily, somewhat unable to control her emotions.
At this moment, she had an urge in her heart to go out and find her own knight, to tell him how she felt and to tell him that she was also looking forward to his return and wanted to be with him every day.
However, looking at the shrinking door of the room in front of her, she finally lowered her head in disappointment.
She had been under house arrest by Orliman some time before.
Before, he could go out occasionally, live in a manor, and meet Chen Heng.
But recently, I don't know what happened, Oliman started to become busy, and the control over her became stricter, and she is no longer allowed to go out.
No matter how much she begged, it was no use.
Thinking of Orliman's serious expression recently, Vinar couldn't help but sigh secretly, and then continued to look forward to it.
After this period of time has passed and Sister Orliman has finished dealing with things, Knight Kailin should also be back.
Then, they can meet again...
At this moment, she felt a deep sense of anticipation in her heart. Looking at the letter in her hand, she couldn't help but look forward to Chen Heng's return.
After thinking it over, she finally couldn't help but stand up, picked up paper and pen, and started writing a letter.
the other side.
In the hall, Orliman sat there, still handling various matters.
In recent times, she has been feeling quite overwhelmed.
Various things came one after another and broke out in a short period of time.
Cooperating with her younger brother, Gris 's actions, made her even more anxious during this period and busy dealing with various things.
“Your Highness…”
In front of him, a servant in a black robe came forward and spoke respectfully.
"Is Vinal making a fuss about going out again?"
Oliman rubbed his forehead and felt a headache.
During this period, her sister had been making a fuss, trying various ways to get out, which made her a little annoyed.
When the servant came over, she subconsciously thought that it was Vinar who started making trouble again.
But to her surprise, the maid in front of her shook her head.
"No."
In front of him, the maid said respectfully, "His Highness Venar has no intention of leaving. He just wants someone to send a letter."
"Just delivering a letter?"
Oliman was a little surprised, but still nodded: "It's nothing, just give it to me if you want."
"But considering the time, Kailin might have returned to his father's territory by now. It will probably take some years for this letter to be delivered."
She smiled, thought for a moment, and then spoke again: "By the way, what is Kailin doing recently?"
"Is there any news from the south?"
"Knight Kailin should be very busy right now."
The maid thought about it and told some of the information she knew.
"Business alliance? North-South trade?"
Orliman listened while processing the documents in his hands.
At first, she listened nonchalantly, but then she couldn't help but pause, put down what she was doing, and her expression became more and more serious.
"Bring all the relevant information here."
In the end, her face became serious and she spoke at this moment.
After a while, all the relevant information was brought over.
Among them, the records of Chen Heng’s previous actions were clearly listed, and they were very detailed.
Ordinary people naturally wouldn't be so concerned that the relevant information is collected in such detail.
However, since Chen Heng was a quasi-knight who was very likely to awaken the seed of life, and had a close relationship with Vinar, Orliman specifically asked him to collect information about his past.
And now, these things come in handy.
Oliman read through all the records in front of him.
The more she looked, the more solemn her expression became.
"Great, great..."
Putting down the things on hand and sitting there, she murmured to herself: " Why didn't I think of this before?"
It is a very simple method to transport the abundant slaves and furs in the North to the South, and then transport the surplus grain in the South to the North. As long as it can be done, huge profits will surely be obtained.
However, no one has ever taken this path with such huge benefits in the past.
On the one hand, this is due to limited thinking.
Although this world has powerful beings like knights, it is actually quite backward in many areas.
Although those lords were called nobles, their thinking was actually very limited. They only cared about plundering the people in their own territories. Even if they looked out to the outside world, they mostly thought about seizing other people's land and seldom thought about developing economic activities to make profits.
Just like Chen Heng’s father, Baron Kaisen.
Before Chen Heng, the most common economic activity in Baron Kaisen's lordship was the exchange of materials with the caravans that came and went, nothing else.
In his territory, everyone was only allowed to grow food crops such as wheat, and anyone who violated the rules would be hanged.
Under such circumstances, there is naturally no need to expect to develop cash crops and produce anything.
The same is probably true for other lords.
In addition to limited thinking, road restrictions are also very serious.
The territory of the Kutu Kingdom was not a single piece. To go from the south to the north, one had to pass through the territories of too many lords.
Among them, the lord of each territory has the right to collect taxes, which may lead to disputes.
The risks involved are also huge.
In addition, the world is in turmoil these days and there are thieves outside all year round, which increases the risk.
Even if these problems can be overcome, the xenophobia of the northern lords is still an extremely important issue.
All these things.
It is precisely because of so many difficulties and such great difficulty that no one has done so in the past.
In just a moment, Oliman was able to imagine the various problems that Chen Heng would encounter during this attempt.
What surprised her was that in the face of so many difficulties, Chen Heng was actually able to overcome them and complete this series of measures.
"How did he do that?"
At this moment, this thought arose in Oliman's mind, and she became more interested in Chen Heng.
Before this, he only regarded Chen Heng as a baron's child, a student of Coribo, and a knight who might awaken the seed of life in the future.
But I didn't expect that besides these glory and status, Chen Heng's abilities were so outstanding.
At this moment, Oliman couldn't help but develop a strong interest in Chen Heng.
Of course, more importantly, as all this goes on and as time goes by, Chen Heng's influence and power will inevitably become stronger and stronger.
