Viscount Fergus left with the butler named Hanson, and Gray and others couldn't help but show a hint of expectation on their faces.
At this time, I received a summons from the Marquis of Sidney. It was most likely related to resource allocation. I wonder what kind of preferential treatment the Fergus family will receive this time.
"By the way, Brother Bernal, the butler just now seems to have a very unusual status in Sidney Castle?"
Thinking of the previous butler named Hansen, Gray couldn't help but feel curious.
The housekeeper of the Sidney family, when they first came to Sidney Castle, they met one named Moya, but at that time Viscount Fergus's attitude could only be regarded as average.
But this time, Viscount Fergus's attitude was obviously extremely polite, and it was clear that this butler was not ordinary.
"Well, Butler Hansen is the oldest butler who has served the Sidney family for many years. I once heard my father say that Butler Hansen has the strength of a vicious warrior."
"The strength of the fierce blood warrior?"
Gray was slightly surprised.
The six viscounts from the viscount family only have the strength of ferocious blood warriors. Unexpectedly, one of the housekeepers of the Sidney family has the strength of ferocious blood warriors. One can imagine the background of the Sidney family.
…
More than an hour later, Viscount Fergus returned with a smile on his face.
"Sir, what new resource benefits have you received?"
Mrs. Milan asked eagerly, and Gray and others also looked at Viscount Fergus expectantly.
Although it is inevitable that the Fergus family will receive preferential treatment with new resources based on their record, there are differences between different resources. Naturally, they hope that the Fergus family will receive better resources.
"In addition to the original preferential treatment for blood beast blood purchase, weapon purchase, armor purchase, medicine purchase, etc., three new resource preferential treatments have been added."
After glancing at everyone who was looking at him, Viscount Fergus smiled slightly.
"Father, which three resources are given preferential treatment?"
Bernal's eyes lit up and he asked quickly.
"The first is the authority to purchase magic potions."
Having said this, Viscount Fergus looked at Gray. After all, Gray had just asked if he would be given permission to purchase potions not long ago.
"What potions are there?"
Gray looked surprised. He just asked casually at that time. Due to the rarity of the potion, the Fergus family might not be eligible to purchase it. He didn't expect to actually get the permission to buy the potion.
"There are a total of four potions: healing potion, recovery potion, rage potion, and concentrated potion. Each potion has a purchase share every year."
"Concentrated potion, what effect does this potion have?"
Gray looked confused.
Healing potions, recovery potions, and rage potions are easy to understand.
The healing potion should be a potion that can heal injuries, the recovery potion should be a potion that can restore the power of blood, and the violent potion should be a potion that can make people become violent and increase their strength in a short period of time.
It was the concentrated potion that made him a little confused. He didn't know what the concentrated potion was.
"The effect is similar to that of blood beast blood, but the effect is stronger. It is like a large amount of blood beast blood concentrated together. It is applicable to anyone who practices any blood method. There is no restriction like blood beast blood."
Viscount Fergus explained.
Gray suddenly realized, no wonder it couldn't be called a concentrated medicine. It was indeed like concentrated blood beast blood.
"Father, what about the other two resource privileges?"
Because of the magic potion, Bernal was more and more looking forward to the preferential treatment later, and Bernal couldn't wait to ask.
"The second one is the permission to purchase magic equipment."
Viscount Fergus continued.
"Purchase authority for magic equipment..."
Everyone's eyes couldn't help but light up.
Magical equipment, weapons whose sophistication is higher than ordinary weapons, often has some extraordinary abilities. If there is the assistance of such things in battle, the strength and survivability will be greatly enhanced.
Although such equipment is not as rare as potions, it is not something that can be purchased by ordinary means.
Under normal circumstances, if you don't have a familiar weapon master, you can't buy it through normal channels. You can only buy it through auctions.
However, the price of magic equipment purchased in this way is obviously inflated and not cost-effective.
Now that the Sidney family has given the Fergus family the authority to purchase magic equipment, they will undoubtedly save a lot of money if they want to purchase magic equipment in the future.
"Master, what about the third preferential treatment?"
Mrs. Milan couldn't help but ask.
Whether it was the right to purchase potions or magic weapons, the Fergus family could benefit greatly. She couldn't help but look forward to the third preferential treatment.
"We cooperate with the Sidney family in drug refining. We collect the medicinal materials, and the Sidney family provides pharmacists to refine the finished medicines for sale."
Viscount Fergus smiled strangely.
"Cooperating with the Sidney family in drug refining?! Isn't this... originally owned by the Richens family?"
Bernal looked surprised.
Naturally, there is not only one pharmacist worshiped by the Sidney family. Although there is no second master alchemist, there are several alchemists.
These alchemists can refine a lot of medicines for the Sidney family every year, and the Lichens family has obtained the qualification to provide medicinal materials, and can obtain tens of thousands of gold coins in revenue every year.
"The Richens family has been disqualified."
Viscount Fergus smiled.
The Marquis of Sidney family is such a large aristocratic family that it is naturally impossible not to collect medicinal materials. Let the nobles in the territory be responsible for collecting medicinal materials. To a certain extent, this is a kind of preferential treatment given by the Sidney family to this territorial nobleman.
Now, because of the performance of the Fergus family in this battle, this preferential treatment has been transferred from the Lichens family to the Fergus family.
…
Just when Viscount Fergus returned to his residence with a smile on his face, Viscount Richens returned to his residence with a gloomy face.
The Marquis of Sidney did not summon the six viscounts individually, but summoned the six viscounts together and announced the allocation of resources to the six viscount families.
Among the six viscount families, which family has received which resource preferential treatment, and which family has had which resource preferential treatment reduced, are all very transparent.
For the Lichens family, which failed to win the first place in the viscount battle like in previous years, the result can be imagined.
"Father, how's it going?"
Seeing Viscount Richens' face looking ugly, Colliver asked carefully.
"The qualifications to cooperate with the Sidney family in drug refining have been cancelled."
After a while, Viscount Richens said calmly.
"The qualification for drug refining cooperation has been cancelled?"
Hearing what Viscount Richens said, Colliver's face instantly turned ugly.
By cooperating with the Sidney family on drug refining, the annual income earned is higher than the territory's taxes. It has always been a huge pillar of their territory's income. Now it has been taken back. For the Richens family, it can be said that it is An extremely huge loss.
"How is that possible? But just losing the first place in the viscount battle once, has our Lichens family's drug refining cooperation qualifications been cancelled?"
Timothy also looked ugly.
Without the right to cooperate in drug refining, the Lichens family will lose at least tens of thousands of gold coins every year, which is not a small loss.
"Father, who now has the right to cooperate in drug refining?"
"The Fergus family."
Viscount Richens said with a cold look in his eyes.
"What? The Fergus family?!"
Colliver frowned deeply.
"Father, it stands to reason that the Fergus family has only won the first place in the Viscount Battle once, and should not receive such preferential treatment from the Sidney family."
"Hmph, I saw the potential of the Fergus family."
Viscount Richens' eyes showed dissatisfaction with the Sidney family.
"With a median blood warrior under 17 years old, in the eyes of the Sidney family, the current Fergus family has more potential than our Lichens family."
