“Alright, but I hope you can develop it as soon as possible. Once you have it, I'll make you a Grand Lord!”
Prince Matthew promised on the spot!
Jiang Yi deliberately feigned excitement and quickly said, "Prince Matthew, please rest assured, I will definitely develop it as soon as possible to cure your skin!"
"Mm!"
Prince Matthew nodded.
"Prince Matthew, is there anything else you need?"
Jiang Yi asked.
"There is one more thing. In a few days, I will send an imperial physician from the capital to assist you in developing the medicine. He is a very famous doctor and can be of great help to you!"
Prince Matthew said to Jiang Yi.
Jiang Yi's brows furrowed slightly upon hearing this.
Jiang Yi was not foolish; Prince Matthew's intention to have the imperial physician assist him was a pretense, the real purpose was to monitor him.
"Alright!"
Jiang Yi agreed!
Jiang Yi was not worried, because he had his own plans for dealing with the imperial physician from the capital when he arrived.
Moreover, he couldn't refuse at this time. If he refused, Prince Matthew would definitely become more suspicious of him.
"Your prompt agreement puts me at ease. Focus on developing the medicine. Once my skin is cured, I will definitely fulfill my promise and make you a Grand Lord!"
Prince Matthew said.
"Thank you, Prince Matthew!"
Jiang Yi said.
"Alright, you may go! If there's anything, I'll have Grand Lord Barry send someone to your castle to find you!"
Prince Matthew waved his hand.
Jiang Yi did not linger and left the hall directly.
"You stay!"
Prince Matthew said to Grand Lord Barry.
"Yes!"
Grand Lord Barry could only stay and wait for Prince Matthew's instructions.
After Prince Matthew confirmed that Jiang Yi had walked far away, he then spoke to Grand Lord Barry, "The private physician just said that you are in cahoots with Jiang Yi. Is this true?"
"Prince Matthew, how can you believe what the private physician says!"
Grand Lord Barry quickly said.
"Don't be nervous, I have no other intentions, I'm just asking casually. Even if you have some connection with Jiang Yi, it doesn't matter. At that time, I hope you can tell me the truth and not lie to me!"
Prince Matthew looked at Grand Lord Barry.
"I was the one who found Jiang Yi to treat you, but I don't have much interaction with Jiang Yi!"
"I don't know much about his affairs! I only know that he is the big boss behind Sky Wealth Group and has amazing medical skills!"
Grand Lord Barry said.
He knew very well that Prince Matthew was very suspicious, so he couldn't admit his relationship with Jiang Yi. Once admitted, Prince Matthew would definitely become suspicious. He had to hide this matter for as long as possible.
However, even so, Prince Matthew's suspicion was aroused.
"You're no longer needed here, you may leave!"
Prince Matthew said.
"Yes!"
Grand Lord Barry responded and then left the hall.
When he reached the courtyard outside, Grand Lord Barry thought Jiang Yi had already left. However, when he looked up, he saw Jiang Yi waiting for him in the courtyard.
Grand Lord Barry walked towards Jiang Yi.
"Prince Matthew has already begun to suspect our relationship!"
"You are the only one who can cure Lord Barry, so you are special to him. And I am a Grand Lord of Simon State. If our relationship is too close, Prince Matthew will definitely not be at ease. Therefore, we should minimize our interactions in the future!"
Grand Lord Barry said with a solemn expression.
"No need to be afraid!"
Jiang Yi smiled slightly.
"You indeed don't need to be afraid, but I have to be!"
"You are the only one who can cure Prince Matthew. No matter what you have done, Prince Matthew will not kill you."
"But it's different for me. I am just a small Grand Lord. Even if I am killed, it won't have much impact on Prince Matthew!"
"Collaborating with you is too risky. Prince Matthew kills without batting an eye. I could lose my life at any moment, or even cause my entire family to be destroyed!"
Grand Lord Barry said, taking a deep breath.
"So, you mean you don't want to cooperate with me anymore?"
Jiang Yi asked.
"That's not what I mean. I will continue to cooperate with you, but we should interact less frequently. If there's anything, just call. We should maintain a distance as much as possible!"
Grand Lord Barry said.
"Fine, whatever you say goes!"
Jiang Yi finished speaking and looked at Grand Lord Barry.
"You helped me get rid of Prince Matthew's private physician just now. I will repay this favor. When you cooperate with me, I will never let you make a losing deal!"
"Then I thank you in advance!"
Grand Lord Barry nodded.
Jiang Yi said nothing more and turned to leave Grand Lord Barry's castle.
Jiang Yi did not rush back to Jiang Tian's castle. Instead, he went to his own Minor Lord's residence. He had not been to his Minor Lord's residence for several days and had to go.
An hour later, Jiang Yi arrived at the gate of the Minor Lord's residence.
Jiang Yi had expected the Minor Lord's residence to be in chaos due to Natasha, but he was surprised to find it orderly when he entered.
When he reached the hall, he saw Natasha and Yang Gang discussing the farm matters.
Seeing Jiang Yi return, Natasha and Yang Gang quickly stood up from their chairs.
"Why did you come back so soon? Is everything finished?"
Natasha asked.
"The matter is not finished, I took advantage of the free time to come and take a look!"
Jiang Yi looked at Natasha and Yang Gang and said, "Please sit down!"
Hearing this, Natasha and Yang Gang sat back in their chairs.
"It's good you're back. We were just about to discuss the farm matters with you. We've helped Li Tao acquire a lot of farms in the past two days. Now, two-thirds of the farms in this district are in your hands!"
"Once the remaining one-third of the farms are all acquired, then all the farms in this district will be your territory!"
Natasha said.
"Then continue to acquire them! These farms are of great use to my group, especially the Jerusalem artichokes in the farms, which are indispensable raw materials for producing new drugs. These Jerusalem artichokes are treasures!"
Jiang Yi smiled slightly.
"We know that, but there's a regulation in the Eagle Country that a Minor Lord can only own a maximum of six hundred farms. If you acquire all the remaining farms, it will exceed six hundred farms, and then the Eagle Country's royal family will forcibly confiscate the excess farms, and your money spent on acquiring farms will be wasted!"
Natasha said.
"Minor Lord, Miss Natasha is right. There is indeed such a regulation in the Eagle Country!"
"Unless you can become a Grand Lord, or you can obtain a noble title!"
Yang Gang said.
"Noble title?"
Jiang Yi was a little curious.
"Yes, a noble title is a symbol of status and comes with many privileges that ordinary people do not have. Moreover, the higher the noble title, the better the treatment and the higher the privileges! It is also hereditary."
Natasha said.
