Broo and the other five manorial lords heard this, their expressions being stern.
They naturally understood the consequences mentioned by Jon Zuck—that is, being destroyed by Lynn!
"We understand, Viscount."
Seeing their expressions and hearing their words, Jon Zuck nodded.
Jon Zuck’s mouth slightly opened, wanting to speak.
Ultimately.
He swallowed the words that were about to escape.
The five manorial lords had only gathered six thousand guards and peasants.
On average, each manor lord only brought twelve hundred people!
With so few numbers.
Are they even qualified to gain benefits from the three mines in Morgan Town?
Jon Zuck understood that even if he wanted to speak, it would have to wait until after this offensive campaign was over.
He still needed these manorial lords to motivate their manor guards and peasants to participate in the battle!
Jon Zuck raised an eyebrow and continued.
"As for the distribution of interests from the three mines in Morgan Town, it remains as previously decided."
"The greater the contribution in the campaign, the more benefits one can gain from the three major mines."
Sitting upright on the wooden chair, Broo’s eyes instantly shone upon hearing such words.
This was exactly why he was willing to dispatch nearly half his personnel from McKinley Manor to Kakasong City!
It’s worth knowing.
Three thousand of these six thousand guards and peasants were dispatched by him.
Which means.
In the uping offensive campaign against Morgan Town, it’s impossible for the other manorial lords to make a greater contribution than him.
He could therefore gain more benefits from the three major mines in Morgan Town!
Of course.
The reason he could dispatch so many guards and peasants is because he absorbed labor from other manors.
The number of people in his manor was already several times that of other manors.
pared to other manor lords, who were filled with tension and resistance towards the uping Morgan Town offensive campaign.
Broo was full of anticipation.
As long as he could eliminate Lord Lynn of Morgan Town.
Not only could he declare his support and loyalty to Viscount Jon Zuck.
He would no longer have to worry about armored cavalry sent by Lynn invading Boxi Town and attacking his manor.
Moreover, he could gain the most benefits from the three major mines in Morgan Town!
A triple win!
Broo even felt that as long as Lynn could be eliminated.
Even if all three thousand guards and peasants perished in battle, it would still be a game-winning deal!
After everyone responded in agreement.
A rush of footsteps sounded outside the meeting room.
Jon Zuck and the five manorial lords, including Broo, all turned their gaze over.
They saw.
An armored soldier stepped boldly into the meeting room.
Under the watchful eyes of Broo and the five others.
He approached Jon Zuck, leaned close to his ear, and spoke softly.
After a few murmured words from the armored soldier.
Jon Zuck’s brows visibly raised, and he called to the burly man behind him.
"Ah Ke!"
The Knight mander Ah Ke, who had been guarding behind him, stepped forward to Jon Zuck’s side.
"Master, Ah Ke is here."
Jon Zuck pondered for a moment, instructing.
"Have them stationed at the vacant plaza behind the castle."
"Then bring him to the meeting room and tell him I’m waiting for his esteemed presence in the meeting room."
Ah Ke heard this and immediately responded, leading the armored soldier out of the meeting room with large strides.
Broo and the others watched Ah Ke’s burly figure leave the meeting room.
They turned their gaze to Jon Zuck, who was seated in the main chair.
Waiting for his explanation.
However.
Jon Zuck had no intention of explaining.
He leaned back, resting on the back of the main chair, closing his eyes to rest.
After Jon Zuck’s earlier scolding, Broo and the five others naturally dared not inquire further.
They could only bow their heads, waiting honestly.
However.
From the constantly shifting eyes, it was clear that they were each calculating their own plans...
As Ah Ke and the armored soldier’s footsteps grew distant.
The spacious meeting room fell into silence.
Tap ~ tap ~ tap ~
Only the sound of Jon Zuck, seated in the main chair, tapping his fingers rhythmically on the wooden armrest remained.
Time swiftly passed.
Jon Zuck’s right hand, which had been tapping the wooden armrest, suddenly stopped.
His slightly closed eyes opened simultaneously, looking towards the wide-open double wooden doors of the meeting room.
Not only Jon Zuck.
The five manorial lords sitting upright on the wooden chairs, all looked towards the double doors simultaneously.
They clearly heard.
Several footsteps approaching from the distant corridor towards the meeting room.
The footsteps’ sound became increasingly clear.
Under the gazes of Jon Zuck and the five manorial lords.
The brawny Knight mander Ah Ke, led by a rotund man, entered the meeting room.
The rotund man, like Jon Zuck, wore a loose satin robe.
The shoulder-length brown hair of the rotund man bounced gently with his steps.
Perhaps due to prolonged walking, the rotund man’s rounded cheeks were flushed red.
The rosaceous mouth opened.
Drafts of hot air expelled from the rotund man’s mouth one after another.
Trickles of sweat ran down his cheeks...
Seeing the rotund man, the eyebrows of Broo and the five other manorial lords raised instantly.
