The warm and soft sunshine in the morning shines on the Haider Plain, especially during the spring and summer traffic season, the official road is lined with endless fields, and blooming flowers adorn this green space.
However, in the seemingly fertile land, the growth rate of any crop here is surprisingly slow. Especially in the southwestern part of the Haider Plain, which was once considered a sacred land, but now seems to be abandoned by God.
The City of Providence is located in the south-central part of the Haider Plain. Starting from Lei Xingbao, walk along the Northeast Official Road to the end. The carriage takes two days.
Although the little lord of Lei Xingbao, Baron Jock, did not have enough money, he ordered two carriages this time. He was in the same car as Bill. The other is the jockey and Jack, plus two coachmen, a group of six went to Tianyi City, the capital of Haider Dominion.
Along the way, Seung Hyun kept observing the scenery outside the car window. He doesn't know much about this new world. Even the original "he" has only been to Tianyi City a few times, and even to other places in the vast Haider Plain.
However, combining memories and rumors of people communicating, plus a day's drive, Xin confirmed a fact.
The closer you are to the north, the more pedestrians and vehicles are on the official roads, and there are even some street vendors setting up stalls on the grass beside the road-
There is a feeling of coming from the country to the city.
After passing a small town along the way, Jack told him that it was the town of Arachi.
As the name suggests, it is a poor town, but in fact, it is very close to Tianyi City, with a population of nearly 10,000.
Although he only passed the town entrance of Arachi Town, Ye Han could see that the prosperity of this town was unmatched by Xinglei Castle. The big figures in Araki Town are carved and painted on the huge distance road sign at the entrance of the town, which also shows their style, while Xinglei Castle seems to have nothing. Only after entering the town, there will be a "Xing Lei Tavern", which proves that this place is already Xing Lei's castle.
"Uncle Jack, why does Fort Xinglei seem a bit desolate? Even if the mineral resources are drastically reduced, the people who led this country in the glorious past should stay there."
Unlike Lei Xingbao and Araki Town, Ye Han asked Jack beside him suspiciously. According to his father, when the Neumann family prospered, there were nearly 100,000 people in the neighborhood. Even when it drops again, the contrast is a bit too much.
"well¡¡"
Jack sighed when he heard Ye Han's question. Few of the younger generation now know the story of the Newman family, because even people of Jack's age only know this story.
Jack was about to speak when he suddenly asked, "Didn't the baron tell the young master?"
The father spoke briefly of the glory of the family, but why didn't he mention the decline. Ye Han replied.
Jack held his chin slightly with his right hand. After all, as the old man matured, he soon knew why the Lord Baron did not give specific instructions to Xiu. Xiu did not receive the title of inheritance, so some matters within the family should not be submitted Discuss the explanation.
However, for some things that outsiders like you can know, Lord Baron didn't explain too much to Master Shura, because, later, according to Jack's understanding of Shura, that is, Shura didn't want to burden the child who inherited the title too much.
After all, history is heavy, especially compared with yesterday's rich and today's poor, the reality is so cruel.
Therefore, the underage Ye Han should not be too bound by the past history. Jack looked at the young master who had grown rapidly recently, and said slowly, "Master Ye Han, as long as you know, the former Newman family is also one of the "golden families". Remember this."
"Yeah." Ye Han simply answered without saying anything.
Hugh is no stranger to The Golden Family as he touches his bright red hair. Earl Fairfax, the current supreme ruler of the Haider Autonomous Region, is also one of the "Golden Families".
Ye Han found that his historical knowledge was extremely lacking. Except for some biographies about mages recorded in the book, it is difficult to find more historical legends about the glorious kingdom in memory. Therefore, specific information about the "Golden Family" is unknown.
The only information he could understand was that the current "Golden Family" were the descendants of several outstanding lieutenants, who were granted by the king after the Star Sea Kingdom was established.
There are five "golden families" in total. Except for one of them that already has a relationship with the royal family, the other four families correspond to the four main territories of the Star Sea Kingdom. The "Golden Families" have extremely high rights in their respective territories. Except for donating a certain amount of money and food to the king every year, everything in the territory is controlled by the lord of the territory.
"If according to Uncle Jack's statement??There should be six "golden families"" Ye Han said thoughtfully, the environment he grew up in, including all the sayings about the golden family that can be seen, and even the common language spoken by people, belong to the "five big families" statement.
Because he thought of this, he didn't continue to think. He knew that things must be complicated here. Otherwise, his father would never have mentioned it.
Initially, Hugh planned to stop talking about the family and ask people outside the family about the family. After all, it's not appropriate. But he suddenly remembered that that night when he was attacked by a magic wolf at a sharp turn, when Captain Cassel came to greet Jack, he shouted, "The veterans of Laixing City"
Lei Xingbao, with a population of only a few thousand, doesn't look like a town at all. At that time, Captain Cassel's expression was not that kind of teasing, so a bold idea entered Ye Han's mind.
Now he wanted to confirm his guess, so he asked the next Jack one last question, "Uncle Jack, did the Newman family ever own a very big city?"
"Well?"
Jack first showed a surprised expression, but soon his face turned into a smile, "Hey, who did you listen to? If there is really a big city, it won't be called Fort Thunder !"
Jack had a forced smile on his face. He knew it was just speculation. Even if he knew something, he couldn't tell Ye Han now. At least he respected Baron Shock's choice.
However, Ye Han got a satisfactory answer. Jack's extremely unnatural expression confirmed Ye Han's guess. For Ye Han, with a certain level of actor training, there are still some ways to observe other people's expressions and guess their psychological activities.
Ye Han also thinks that his father didn't tell him these things, maybe it's because it's not the time yet, maybe when he gets a complete answer, the required condition is the status of the heir to the title.
Putting aside these thoughts about family affairs, the carriage arrived at Tianyi City, the capital of the Haider Autonomous Region, shortly before sunset in Arachi Town. (Remember this site URL: www.hlnovel.com
