"She still remembers?"

Murphy picked up a gold bar and weighed the amount, then put it back.

Before going to the canyon, Murphy reached an agreement with Mrs. Elizabeth. As long as he could help Mrs. Elizabeth recover the territory, the land about 800 square kilometers west of Mrs. Elizabeth's territory would belong to him.

However, this agreement was eventually invalidated under the calculations of the noble parliament.

Since only the plains within the canyon were recovered, Mrs. Elizabeth's territory was finally recovered, less than 2,000 square kilometers.

So after the end of the Canyon Battle, Murphy never asked for any compensation. Because both of them suffered a secret loss in this matter.

But he didn't expect that Mrs. Elizabeth still remembers this incident clearly.

Obviously, this chain mail and the gold were the rewards she compensated herself.

……………………

Leaving the chain mail, Murphy quietly called the servants waiting outside and told them to move the gold contained in the box to the vault. The gold bars are of great weight. If converted into silver coins, it is conservatively estimated that the value should exceed 60,000 silver coins. This is already a considerable wealth! If used to purchase equipment, it is enough to arm an army with a number of nearly 2,000 people.

"It seems that I really underestimated this woman!" Murphy couldn't help but exclaimed in his heart. Everything today gave him a clearer understanding of Mrs. Elizabeth's character. The most taboo thing for the superiors is to break their promises and be fat. The old saying goes, "When you say it, you must do it." This is one of the fundamental principles of a gentleman. If the superiors speak without trust, they will lose all prestige, and it will not take long.

You have no jokes, that's all.

Murphy couldn't help but think that regardless of Mrs. Elizabeth's scheming and means, just in terms of her courage, if she was a man, she would probably be a hero!

Since the Canyon battle was plotted by the noble parliament together, the cooperative relationship between Murphy and Mrs. Elizabeth has been relatively close.

It is not surprising that Mrs. Elizabeth can produce so much gold Murphy.

After all, the wealth accumulated by the family for hundreds of years cannot be destroyed by just being attacked by the werewolves. Moreover, Murphy also knew that there was a large gold mine in Lady Elizabeth's territory. It can be said that all the richest land north of the southern plains is in the hands of Lady Elizabeth. After all, the title of [Purple Thorn Flower] was not given for nothing.

This woman has amazing talent in finance!

Otherwise, she would not be able to support an army of nearly 6,000 people with just a piece of land of about 3,600 square kilometers, including elite troops such as heavy armored cavalry and eagle flag silver shield infantry! You should know that the system of the indigenous people is not as cohesive as the city of Athens. These indigenous people do not have much sense of honor as citizens. If they want to make their lives, they can only give out enough wealth!

But it’s a pity that this woman’s talent in military terms is equivalent to not having talent.

But while marveling, people were also curious about how the young lord would have something wonderful to do with the mermaid?

The process is really imaginative.

Even a chaste lady can't help but blush when she thinks of this, her heart beats and her bones and legs are weak.

Whether Murphy wants it or not, his name and his deeds are spreading at an astonishing speed! In just a few months, even the half-elves living by the sea knew this person and were happy to listen to stories about him!

……………………

And behind all this.

The truth is that just as Mrs. Elizabeth secretly promoted the expansion of Murphy's glorious image, another dark hand was quietly smearing some stains on Murphy.

But what neither side expected was that the final direction of the rumors was much beyond everyone's estimate!

There is an old saying: Reciting etiquette and exchange.

Sometimes human relationships are that simple.

Murphy is not the kind of person who is short-sighted and easily deceived by flies. What's the use of a real man greedy for a little ***? If you want to be greedy, you will be greedy for a large territory!

People who only know how to take advantage of a few good things and take advantage of a little bit of flies and think they have gained great benefits.

Whoa?

Enjoy the hearts of others and use them for my own use!

Those who want to accomplish great things will gain and lose money be in front of them?

……………………

——If you are not self-reliant and confident, how can you control others with virtue?

From the moment she accepted Mrs. Elizabeth's gift, Murphy was thinking in her heart how to return the gift.

Since both sides have been plotted by the noble parliament.

Then the distribution of interests agreed upon before is simply impossible to establish, because both parties have suffered considerable losses.

The territory has just been recovered, and everything is waiting for recovery.

Even with the wealth accumulated by the family for generations, Mrs. Elizabeth probably is not rich at this moment. She has to maintain the expenses of thousands of troops and accept the refugees who have fled back. I am afraid that this half box of gold is the only wealth she can squeeze out. She, a woman, has such courage to make up for the reward she promised before. Could she be a real man still be greedy for this little profit?

Food is also in short supply in the territory at present. Before the trade relationship with the half-elves is reached, I am afraid that I will not be able to squeeze out much grain to give back to Mrs. Elizabeth.

Then if you want to return the gift, it must be of the same value.

Then you have to find a way from another place.

Now is a relatively peaceful period, and weapons and equipment may not be able to be used for her, and maintenance is also a big trouble. The Canyon Pass has established a defense line, and if the orcs want to go deeper, they must break the pass. For the time being, the territory of Murphy and Mrs. Elizabeth is very safe.

Murphy wrapped his arms around his chest and walked around the room for several times.

Sudden!

His eyes fell on the left-behind porcelain plate on the table.

Mrs. Elizabeth has extraordinary talents in interpersonal communication and business operations! Moreover, she has a high reputation among the nobles and has a very broad social circle!
