Unlike Lorne who was dawdling, the old Wolf family had arrived in Fastland a few days ago.
After staying for such a period of time, Old Wolf has understood the poor nature of the Fast Territory.
But with the innkeeper's sensitive intuition, he discovered that the nearest Fast had brought many people.
From the mouths of some of the clerks, he heard that some of these people were just like him, and the other part were people from various families who came to the station to do business permanently.
The poor Fast leader does not seem to have no future, but there is no prestige in being an official if he returns to his old career.
Look at Grant who is holding his collar now, and think about what happened in Namu Fortress.
Without power, he, a small innkeeper, would fall at his word.
That's why he took the risk today and shamelessly wanted to leave an impression in front of Lorne.
Unfortunately, after being stopped by Grant, Old Wolf didn't even have a chance to get close to Lorne.
The loud shouting would only make Lorn think that the other party was here to ask for a bill.
After waving his hand, the Baron gave instructions to Robert.
"Go and teach that old guy who doesn't know how to appreciate others a lesson."
After that, he muttered to himself, "He actually came to my territory and asked me for an account.
He's just crazy about money."
Lorne's reputation among the nobles was already very bad.
If he continued to force his men to beat civilians in the street.
I guess Fast has really become disgusted with people and ghosts since taking over.
Fortunately, Celine on the side also heard Lorne's order.
She stopped Robert and asked Lorne: "Do you know who that person is?"
Lorne was already used to Celine's habit of getting involved in everything, so he briefly talked about Old Wolf's identity and the debt Grant owed him.
However, if Grant heard Lorne's explanation, he would definitely protest.
The stingy businessman always believed that Old Wolf had teamed up with local gangsters to hack his stuff and extort money from him.
But after listening to Lorne's story, Celine didn't think that Old Wolf would chase Fast from Namu Fortress to demand the account.
"This is an opportunity, you should seize it."
The woman whispered to Lorne, "Many civilians know you, and in their impression you are the same person as them.
This is not conducive to your rule and will also affect your prestige.
Therefore, you need to change your impression in the eyes of others.
This old man is a good target.
Remember, the foundation of a qualified lord is the combination of kindness and power. " Lorne understood what Celine meant.
The woman wanted him to show that he was no longer what he used to be by solving Old Wolf's obstacle.
Moreover, the process must make people feel his majesty, so as to offset the illegitimate impression left by the dead ghost Fast in the past.
It cannot be said to be difficult, nor can it be said to be easy.
The old Fast would definitely not be able to do it, but Lorne is not Fast.
Although his background is not high and he has no similar experience, developed film and television dramas have given him countless references.
"Grant, whoever gave you permission to do it, please let go of that poor old man."
He sat upright on the horse.
If it weren't for the fact that the ground was so disgusting, Lorne would have dismounted and helped old Wolf.
But this is just right.
Being aloof is the way a noble man should behave, and the kindness in Celine's mouth does not mean being approachable.
Lorne does this very well.
As an earthling, he inherently despises the natives of other worlds.
Even when he talks normally, he can come across as a bit arrogant from time to time.
Once he straightened his face, his defiant attitude became even more obvious.
Even Grant, who knew Lorne well, was stunned by Lorne's sudden expression and didn't know how to cooperate with the noble Baron.
But Lorne's intention to let him go was very clear.

Grant, who didn't understand what Lorne wanted to do, had to put his hand down.
"Old gentleman, do you have something important to do when you stop this Baron?
Please step forward and answer."
Thinking about it carefully, Lorne also felt that Old Wolf didn't seem to be here to ask for a debt.
Even if Grant owed him an accommodation fee, the cost of traveling to and from Namu Fortress and Fast Collection already exceeded the bill.
Who would be so stupid as to spend two gold coins to pay for one gold coin?
Of course Old Wolf is not here to ask for an account.
Doesn't asking for accommodation fees from a powerful lord mean that his life is too long?
But it is impossible to tell the real purpose directly.
For a commoner to ask for an official position from a noble lord, it is even more of an act to seek death. .
So, Old Wolf needs a little skill.
Let him leave enough and a good enough impression in Lorne's heart.
"Lord Baron, this is Wolf from Wolf Hotel.
We have met before, you can just call me Old Wolf."
With Lorne's permission, Old Wolf trotted up to Lord Baron.
Perhaps due to being too nervous, the old guy was already sweating profusely after just a few steps.
"I remember you, old Wolf of Namu Fortress.
If you don't stay at Namu Fortress, why did you come to my place?"
Still maintaining that condescending tone, Lorne gradually began to like the feeling of looking down on others.
Old Wolf, who struggled to look up at Lorne, was not only not dissatisfied at all, but was very happy because Lorne remembered his name.
This is a good start for him.
"Yes, yes.
Lord Baron really has a good memory.
I am Old Wolf of Namu Fortress.
In fact, this time I came here specifically to apologize to Lord Baron. " Lorne didn't remember Old Wolf ever offending him.
At most, he gave Grant a beating.
Lorne would never believe that it was so simple to come here to apologize for such a trivial matter.
But Old Wolf still used a sincere tone, not only apologizing to Lorne, but he even talked down to Grant.
"I didn't understand what happened at the time, and I wrongly blamed Mr.
Grant.
I should apologize to you and Mr.
Grant for my behavior, and of course Mr.
Grant's caravan disappeared from my place.
For this, I should also take responsibility. " I have never seen anyone take the initiative to take the blame.
If Lorne hadn't seen how tough Old Wolf was, he would have been deceived by him.
But Old Wolf was willing to spend a lot of money in order to leave a strong impression on Lorne.
The compensation he mentioned was real money.
Taking out a small bag, Lorne found a little golden light from the mouth of the bag that was not tied tightly on purpose.
"Although I know that gold coins cannot restore my lost reputation, I still want to ask Mr.
Grant to accept my compensation to make up for my fault.
I also hope that the Baron can forgive me for my previous reckless behavior.
If possible, I beg the Baron to allow me to stay in Fastland.
I hope to do my best to atone for my sins and ask you to give me a chance
