After staying in Yangwu City for three days and watching with his own eyes the transport ship loaded with food and daily necessities sailing to Eagle Beak Island, Samwell finally breathed a sigh of relief and bid farewell to Viscount Brandon.

So, with Viscount Brandon's warm farewell and Miss Alice's resentful eyes, Samwell and his party boarded a ship to the Arbor Island and set sail.

The journey was calm and uneventful, and just six days later, the ship successfully crossed the Red Wing Strait and arrived at Qingting Island.

This island is famous for its wine production, especially Qingting Island golden wine, which is the most sought after wine by the nobles of the seven countries. It is also extremely expensive and can be called "liquid gold".

However, what really makes the Redwine family one of the most influential nobles in the Reach is obviously not the wine, but the Arbor Fleet.

This fleet, together with the Royal Fleet and the Iron Fleet, is known as the three major fleets of Westeros. It is an important maritime force that can influence the situation of the Seven Kingdoms.

Under the afternoon sun, Samwell walked slowly down the trestle.

The docks were bustling with activity, and laborers carrying goods could be seen everywhere. They shouted loudly and loaded big bags of goods onto merchant ships.

Looking at the familiar scene in front of them, Samwell's guards all looked nostalgic.

Only half a year ago, they were still like these people, working hard to carry heavy goods every day, but could barely fill their stomachs. But now, their fate has completely changed.

Thinking of this, the guards looked at the lord in front with particularly eager eyes.

The arrival of Samwell and his party did not cause any disturbance. Although Todd Flowers had written back in advance, explaining his intention to visit, it is obvious that with Samwell's current reputation, it is impossible to get the support of the Redwin family with great fanfare.

welcome.

In fact, not a single member of their family came, and only one servant was sent to greet him.

This is a bit too much.

Even after Samwell entered the castle and drank tea in the drawing room for a long time, he still could not see Earl Paxter.

At this time, even Todd Flowers's face became extremely gloomy, but Samwell still looked leisurely and contented.

In fact, he had some expectations for the cold reception from the Redwin family. After all, according to Lady Olenna's plan, although the new territory of Eagle Beak Island was nominally Samwell's, the actual controller was Redwine.

Wen family.

Now that Samwell refuses to be manipulated, Lord Paxter will naturally not give him a good look.

However, he was not in a hurry.

After reaching a supply agreement with Viscount Brandon of Yangwu City, the food crisis in the territory has been temporarily relieved, so he no longer needs the support of the Redwin family so urgently.

As for the brandy, he didn't have to ask the Redwin family to help sell it.

Although the Redwyne family is indeed the best partner, after all, they have mature sales channels and can deliver brandy to the wine tables of major nobles in Westeros as quickly as possible, and with the Arbor Winery

It would be easier for the brandy to gain a reputation by selling it in the name of others, but if they don't know what's good and what's wrong, then it's not impossible to find another partner.

After calming down, Samwell didn't care anymore, just to see what tricks Earl Paxter could play.

They waited until the sun went down and Samwell and his party were so hungry that their stomachs began to growl, and then someone finally walked into the living room.

"Oh, why is it so dark? Someone, please bring some candles!"

"Sorry, sorry, Sam, for keeping you waiting so long."

Entering were Earl Paxter's twin sons, Horace Redwin and Hob Redwin.

The two look almost identical, with square faces, orange hair, and freckles all over their faces.

However, the two brothers are still easy to distinguish.

The elder brother, Horace, was taller, and his eyes were more aggressive. He looked at everyone as if he was about to fight, while the younger brother, Hopper, spoke unclearly, as if he had a mouthful of saliva that he had not swallowed.

"It's okay. We are tired from the journey and we just took a half-day rest." Samwell said with a smile.

Horace stared at Samwell for a long time and said:

"Sam, I haven't seen you in a few years, you have changed a lot."

Hobo also nodded in agreement: "Yes, I have lost a lot of weight. Have you not had enough to eat recently?"

Horace immediately said: "It's really hard to have enough food in a ghost place like the Crimson Mountains, hahaha..."

The two brothers burst out laughing as they talked.

Samwell smiled and looked at the two of them quietly, as if looking at two fools.

The memories belonging to the original owner surged out, making him realize that he actually had a relationship with the two brothers.

When Lord Randyll had not completely given up on his eldest son, he brought Samwell to the Arbor Island, hoping to get him to make a marriage contract with Lord Paxter's daughter, Desmera Redwine.

But unfortunately, Samwell did not live up to expectations at that time. Not only did he fail to win the favor of Earl Paxter, but he also cried bitterly under the teasing and teasing of the two brothers Horace and Hopper, which made him lose face.

"It is indeed easy to get hungry." Samwell didn't care at all about the ridicule of the two brothers, "That's why I came to Qingting Island, hoping to get help from the Redwin family to support Yingzui Island with some food and supplies."

Although he has already signed a supply contract with Yangwu City, Samwell does not mind having one more supplier.

Otherwise, if the Brandon family controls the food lifeline of Yingzui Island, what will happen if Viscount Brandon turns his back one day? Or if the old matter comes up again and he is forced to marry Miss Alice?

"Well..." Horace smiled reservedly and said, "Let's wait until my father comes back."

"Your Majesty the Earl is not on the island?"

"Yes, I'm here, but my father went to inspect the territory."

"Then when will he come back?"

"It's hard to say. It could be tomorrow or next week... After all, Qingting Island is so big. I don't know where my father is now."

When Samwell heard this, he still smiled on the surface, but he was already scolding in his heart.

"In that case, I won't bother you any more. We have other things to do, so we'll leave tomorrow."

"You're leaving tomorrow?" Horace was stunned when he heard Samwell say he was leaving.

"Yes." Samwell smiled slightly, "I also want to go to Old Town."

"Then you will come to Qingting Island again when you return?" Hobo couldn't help but ask.

"It depends on the situation then." Samwell was more cautious, "Maybe we will stop again. I hope I can see the earl by then."

Horace twitched the corners of his mouth, his face uncertain.

After a while, he forced a smile and said:

"In that case, I'll send someone to arrange a room for you and rest early."

"Okay, I'll trouble you then."

Samwell stood up and walked out without any hesitation.

Horace and his brother looked at each other, unable to conceal their surprise.

But soon, the two brothers exchanged a tacit understanding of their eyes, then quickened their pace, walking Samwell out one by one.

The door of the living room is not wide enough for three people to walk side by side, but the Horace brothers did not avoid it at all, but took the opportunity to squeeze into the middle——

Bang!

There was a muffled sound, but Samwell stepped out of the door calmly, while the two brothers staggered and almost fell.

"Ah! I'm so sorry, are you okay?" Samwell turned around in a fuss.

Horace endured the burning pain on his shoulder and the uncontrollable shock in his heart, and said:

"It's okay, we accidentally tripped."

"So that's it." Samwell suddenly realized, "I thought you two didn't have enough to eat."
