The guard followed Earl Howard's will and conveyed his words to Drew who was waiting at the door.
"I'm sorry, sir, it's not convenient for the count to see guests right now," the guard said apologetically.
Drew said oh.
He was not surprised at all by such a result. After all, Earl Howard was an old-school British aristocrat.
This old-school aristocracy has a natural dislike for the French.
So does he.
"It's okay, I have to trouble you again."
As he spoke, Drew took out another gold coin to dispel the guard's upcoming dissatisfaction. Drew watched as his smile changed from dissatisfaction to joy.
Drew smiled and said: "Please tell Mr. Howard, I have something important to tell him. It is related to whether he can continue to rent to Longyan Army in the future."
"Okay, please wait a moment." After receiving a gold coin, the guard became more respectful.
He immediately went to report it, and despite his embellished explanation, Earl Howard was not angry because Drew had offended him again.
Instead, he calmed down, pondered for a moment, and then asked, "What else did he say?"
The guard apologized: "Mr. Count, I'm afraid you have to ask him."
Earl Howard frowned slowly, renting the Dragon Flame Army was his biggest support now. Ever since he rented the Dragon Flame Army and killed a group of pirates who robbed him, Howard had a deep understanding of the power of the Dragon Flame Army.
Over the years, it can be said that Howard has done a lot of things using the Longyan Army.
If there were no Long Yanjun now, Howard's huge property would be left unattended.
The armed forces that existed in the Howard family had long been disbanded.
His plantations and properties may be visited by bandits and pirates every day.
Moreover, the government established by Xie Fang will never interfere with these matters.
The security station he established seemed to be in vain.
In fact, everyone knows what the purpose is.
I just want everyone to rent troops so that Xie Fang can enrich his pockets.
After Howard faced a pirate invasion, he completely understood that spending money buys peace.
It’s not a waste of money to spend it at all.
"Okay, let him in." Earl Howard said after careful consideration.
The guard went out to announce that Drew was invited into the manor.
After seeing Howard, Drew hugged him like an old friend: "My dear friend, Earl Howard."
Earl Howard put on a polite smile: "Oh, dear friend, please forgive me, my body has restrained me recently."
If the guard hadn't known that the relationship between the two was average, even a bit bad, otherwise he would have really thought that the relationship between the two would be very good among these two people who were friends.
Drew was invited by Howard into his manor castle.
Drew looked at the magnificent decorations and exquisite murals in the castle with an expression of extreme envy.
In his words, he was not stingy with words of praise.
Howard was very casual. After the two of them walked through the art gallery talking and laughing, Drew suddenly sighed and said: "Earl, these collections of yours are too precious, but those pirates and bandits are
I can’t appreciate these works of art.”
"Can you bear to watch them all perished in the flames?"
Earl Howard's smile gradually stiffened on his face.
Drew went straight to the point: "I just got the news that starting from this year, Longyan Army will not be rented out to outsiders."
