King of German Mercenaries

Marin was right in guessing that Jules's house was indeed destitute now. He, a knight who has a title in the Teutonic Knights (not a Teutonic knight, just an ordinary knight), was forced to sell his horse and weapons because of his wife's illness.

Of course, his current job has nothing to do with the war. Because of his good reading skills, Jules was placed in the city hall of the local branch of Mermel and became a municipal secretary, responsible for the government affairs of the local knights branch.

Speaking of which, although the knights basically read books. However, most knights are keen to fight and kill, and their reading scores are very poor. Just like those athletes in later generations, although they are physically strong, most of them can't read. Even those sports students from prestigious universities are mostly recruited for lower scores.

Although Jules and Sr. Hoffmann are brothers, they are similar to Adler and Marin. Older Hoffmann is physically strong, but not the material for reading. And Jules, smarter than the old Hoffman, read well, but a little thin. Therefore, after coming to the Teutonic Knights, Jules could not compete with other knights in terms of force, but because of his good reading, he was hired by Amsau, the sub-commander of Mermel, as a clerk.

Of course, when Yule was taken in by Amsau, Amsau was not the head of Mermel's sub-group, but a sheriff in the Mermer area. Jules started helping Amsau with various documents when he had no place to stay. Amsau himself is a scumbag, and naturally he doesn't know how to handle government affairs. However, he comes from a wealthy family. So, he hired Jules and another wandering knight who had read books to help him deal with the paperwork. Jules and another well-read wandering knight, Kisling, became Amsau's right-hand man.

Only, Kiessling is more rounded than Jules. The two handle government affairs at a similar level, but Keasling is more flattering. Therefore, Amsau reused Kiesling more. When Amsau became Mermel's sub-head, Kisling became Mermel's political officer, while Jules, a political secretary, obeyed Kisling.

Of course, Yule is not a fool, and he was going to fight Kisling. Unfortunately, his wife and children are sick.

Jules had two children, John the eldest, and Peter the younger. While Jules was preparing to fight Kisling, his eldest son John fell ill. Then, the quack doctor that came in bleeds John, bleeds, bleeds again... so John bleeds and dies...

Jules' wife, Tana, could not bear the blow, and fell ill, physically and mentally...

Under the pain, Yu Le did not look for the bloodletting doctors anymore, but instead looked for the Mongolian doctors from the Golden Horde to treat his wife...

It’s just that Yule didn’t know that this Mongolian doctor who came from the Golden Horde to join the Teutonic Knights was actually not very good at medicine. I just came to the Teutonic Knights country.

Therefore, Mermel's Mongolian doctor actually only has the level of two knives. However, even with the veterinary level of only two knives, these low-level Mongolian doctors used oriental herbs to suppress Tana's condition and did not make Tana's condition worse. This alone is much better than those bloodletting doctors.

However, Tana has not gotten better since then, and needs to use herbs for a long time. And some herbs, which are not available in Prussia, need to be purchased from the Golden Horde. Moreover, these herbs were not produced by the Golden Horde, but were sold by merchants from Central Asia. Although these herbs are common in the Central Asian steppe, when they are shipped from thousands of miles away to Eastern Europe, the price has doubled by N times...

So, these herbs are very expensive. Even with a daily salary of up to 10 pfennigs, Jules couldn't bear those expensive "imported herbs". To this end, Yule even had to sell his beloved war horse in exchange for medicine...

Marin and Yule chatted while walking. After learning about these situations,

Can't help but sigh. So Marin asked:

"Uncle, since you are so difficult, why don't you write to go home and borrow some money from my father?"

"No, Marin, I'm also from Hoffman Manor, and I know what's going on at home. There's only 100 Ugrams of arable land at home, and there's not much output at all. Plus, the eldest brother also has to support you, so where's the extra? Money? So, I haven't thought about talking to Big Brother all these years..."

Marrington paused, feeling good about Uncle Le. Because a person who thinks about others is definitely not a bad person and deserves to be taken seriously by himself. So he said quietly to Prince Philip:

"Your Highness, what do you think of my uncle's character?"

"Well, not bad!" Prince Philip nodded approvingly. It was clear that Jules was an upright and strong knight. Although a bit pedantic, the quality is good. The key is that he will also handle government affairs, and has more than ten years of work experience...

"Then... if you become the head of the regiment, reuse it..."

"No problem, it just so happens that I am also short of manpower. Such an honest and reliable person who can handle official documents is exactly what I need..."

After negotiating the terms, Marin said to Le:

"Uncle, those memories of yours don't work now. The Hoffman family, it's taking off now!"

"Oh? How did it take off?" Yule was also a little puzzled. Seeing that Marin was neither humble nor arrogant in front of Prince Philip, and seemed to be very dragged, he was actually puzzled for a long time. It's just that Prince Philip is on the side, so he can't ask Marin.

"Cough cough... Knight Jules, your nephew is now a baron... Moreover, he is also a baron with a large fief..." Prince Philip interrupted at this time.

"What?" Yu Lexia staggered, thinking he had heard it wrong.

"Yes, uncle, I am already a baron!"

"Boy, what are you lying? You've seen a knight's son become a baron at 19? You're an uncle and I haven't read? Also, this Prince Philip, is it possible that the gang of Marin lied to me? Are you? Are you Prince Philip?"

Unexpectedly, Marin revealed his identity, and instead of being happy, Yule became angry. For Marin, he will not admit wrong. Because, Marlin looks more like Mrs. Mary. Jules and Madame Marie have been together for several years, and naturally they know Madame Marie's appearance. Therefore, he has no doubts about Marin's identity.

However, Marin said that he was a baron, but he doubted... Even the authenticity of Prince Philip's identity began to be doubted incidentally.

Because, the Hoffman family is only a bottom-level knight family. His eldest brother, Old Hoffman, is only a knight, and his son, and also the second son, how can he become a baron? Isn't this a joke?

Now, Jules strongly suspects that this also very young Prince Philip may be a wandering knight with Marin. As for the group of guys who look like bodyguards behind them, they may be a gang of wandering knights with Prince Philip.

You know, it is not easy for a wandering knight to survive. Therefore, it is also common for some wandering knights to form a team to seek common survival and development. Even some wandering knights are forced to make a living and form gangs of robbers or scammers.

Apparently, Jules took Prince Philippe as the leader of the scam gang...

Prince Philip's escort knight captain couldn't see it now. As the custodian in charge of the prince's documents and seals, he tugged at Jules and showed Prince Philip's identity document and the seal made of silver - these are all Philip Documents that the prince carries with him to prove his identity. Because, if Prince Philip wants to win over those Teutonic knights, he must first make people believe in his identity...

Jules is also an old clerk. He checked Prince Philip's papers and seals, but he really didn't find anything wrong. As a result, Jules no longer suspected that Prince Philip was a fraud gang. Otherwise, he will definitely report to the Knights, and he will dispatch security knights to arrest him. (There are too many wandering knights coming to the Teutonic Knights, and the sheriff can rely on recruited wandering knights to maintain law and order, which is very extravagant)
