But Duke Stuart wanted to recruit Lorne, and he did not correct the Baron's slip of the tongue.
Instead, in order to show that Stuart was extraordinary, the Duke told Lorne.
"The amount of gold coins determines the strength of the family.
In terms of financial resources, if our Stuart family claims to be second, no one in the empire will dare to claim to be first.
And nearly half of the entire empire’s income has something to do with my Stuart family, so it’s not wrong for you to say that. " He actually admitted generously that rich people are indeed rich people.
Lorne didn't know what the Duke of the Sea was up to.
Continuing to echo the other party, the baron praised the Stuart family as if the entire empire belonged to the Stuart family.
After a round of flattery that even Lorne couldn't stand, Athena's father finally revealed his purpose.
Maybe he couldn't stand Lorne's shamelessness, so he asked Lorne straightforwardly.
"Then, Baron, are you willing to stay here?
As a distinguished guest of my Stuart family, what you can get here is definitely better than what you can get in the north." defect Lorne felt that Duke Stuart must have regarded himself as a stupid boy who knew nothing.
He was the lord of the North and had the responsibility to defend the territory.
What the hell is it to stay in the Stuart family for a long time without any reason?
Under the constraints of the law, the Grand Duke of the North can send someone to punish him in minutes.
Could it be that the old guy thought he would jump into such a simple and easy-to-understand trap?
But before Lorne could refuse, the Duke continued: "I will come forward to convince them in the north, and the Baron can stay here with peace of mind.
If you are willing, I can also give you a piece of rich land.
The output there can definitely meet the Baron's needs.
There is no need for a man as capable as the Baron to stay in the North. " Met a headhunter Lorne figured out the Duke's poaching move, and he could even guess what the other party liked about him.
It's just that Lorne would definitely not agree to such a thing.
Regardless of whether Duke Stuart is trustworthy or not, meatballs alone cannot devour corpses unscrupulously here in the south.
If you want to get a territory that is completely your own like in the north, you have to start from scratch, and Lorne doesn't think there will be any restrictions on Duke Stuart recruiting him here.
The embryonic form of capital has begun to emerge, and Sea Duke's way of doing things is also close to the capitalist's thinking mode.
Ordinary lords only oppressed the common people, but in the Stuart family, Lorne believed that even ordinary nobles were the targets of their oppression.
This kind of exploitation is not only about assets, but also their habit of making capable people work like dogs.
Under the surveillance of these vampires, Lorne had no future except working for the Stuart family.
It is speculated that this may be the reason why the Sea Duke came to find the pirates.
If he refuses now, he will probably be silenced after being kidnapped.
But if he agrees, maybe the Duke will make arrangements immediately and try to implement the matter as soon as possible.
Faced with a dilemma, Lorne had no choice but to resort to his own delaying method.
As long as he returns from the Heretic Island, everything will be easy to handle.
On land, Baron Fast is not so easy to deal with.
No matter how powerful Duke Stuart was, he could not mobilize an army to deal with him.
"Your Majesty the Duke, I have to admit that your proposal has moved my heart.
But after all, I am a northerner, and it is my family motto to fight the orcs to defend the north."
While boasting, Lorne made a reversal before the Duke's expression turned bad.
"But I do like it here.
Can your Lord Duke give me some time to consider that the decision to give up my Fast family's ancestral territory is too important.
I need to think about it for a while."
When his status reached the level of Duke Stuart, there was almost nothing he could ask for.
Now he took the initiative to extend an olive branch to Lorne, but the young man didn't agree immediately.
Lorne's delay made the Duke somewhat unhappy, but as Lorne said, such a major matter does require time to consider.
However, the Duke is confident that the longer Lorne stays in Yuanwang City, the young man will naturally like everything here more.
As the most developed city in the empire, it has everything young people pursue.
As long as he sees a little sincerity in Lorne, I believe Baron Fast will know how to choose.

I understand that Lorne may have some unnecessary worries after meeting the pirates, but if Lorne finally makes it safely back and forth between the Island of Heresy and the City of Far Look, wouldn't the young man realize that it was his own fault?
The Duke, who is ready to cancel Castoff's kidnapping plan, is very optimistic about the young Baron Fast.
And Lorne has also understood the role of Castoff from the Duke's words, but this still cannot make the Baron let go of his grudge.
Baron Fast, who repays evil with evil, still plans to cooperate with Castev to give Athena some color.
Of course, the credit of the pirate must not be trusted either.
Lorne really needs to think carefully about how to protect his own safety while dealing with Athena.
But in the territory of the Stuart family, no matter what Lorne did, he would be accompanied by members of the Stuart family, so there was no chance for him to make any small moves.
Because even his men were being watched specially by the Stuart family, Lyle explained to Lorne the next day that they had fallen under the surveillance of the Stuart family.
It was reasonable that he was being watched, but it was too much to deny Lyle and the others freedom.
Moreover, according to Lyle's report, the people monitoring them were very professional, and it was impossible to get rid of them without leaving any trace.
Lorne even discovered that people from the Stuart family were actually trying to make him a human being.
Although these guys were doing it covertly, the human beings were not ordinary people.
They were not moved by money at all and were not objects that the Stuart family could corrupt.
The Duke of the Sea wanted to prove Lorne's training method from a soldier's point of view, but it soon went bankrupt because the modified soldiers could only get in but not get out.
But the rich Duke didn't care about that loss at all, in the days before Athena came back.
Lorne did some calculations and found out that the more than 500 Cyborg soldiers who led the troops in Stuart earned Lorne a net profit of more than 20,000 gold coins.
This may not be worth mentioning to the Duke of the Sea, but for Lorne, a poor man in the north, it is already a huge sum of money.
After defeating the Charles family, Lorne received a ransom of tens of thousands of gold coins.
This time, I did nothing but got more than 20,000 gold coins in vain.
If I told others in the north, no one would believe it
