Lords Trying to Survive: Strategizing from a Rundown Yard

[Baron Bezos’s favorability towards you increases by 65 points, and the current favorability is 65 points (a moral friend)]

Zong Shen glanced at the favorability indicator and then at Baron Bezos, who was crying vigorously.

This increase in favorability made him quite satisfied, at least it was much better than that white-eyed wolf from Kunil.

The life-saving grace only increased his favorability by 35 points, and even Safuri was more humane than him.

Zong Shen remained silent, quietly waiting for Bezos to vent his inner emotions.

It took five or six minutes for Baron Bezos to recover.

He stretched out his hand to wipe away the tears from the corners of his eyes, and showed Zong Shen a not-so-pretty smile.

"Sorry, I lost my temper."

"Thank you for traveling hundreds of kilometers to return these two items."

"From now on, you are my friend and Bosbon's friend,"

"I would like to invite you and your men to the castle."

"I'll prepare a dinner to welcome you."

Baron Bezos said gratefully and extended an invitation to Zong Shen and the others.

Hearing this, Zong Shen nodded without hesitation.

Facing the invitation from Baron Bezos, there is no need for too much pretentiousness and hesitation.

"It just so happens that I have something to ask you, sir."

"Of course, it's all little things that don't matter."

Zong Shen said bluntly.

So far, he has not gained any substantial benefits from Baron Bezos.

For some small requests, Baron Bezos will not refuse.

Sure enough, after Zong Shen finished speaking, Baron Bezos just reached out and patted Zong Shen on the back, and warmly greeted everyone into the central area.

At the same time, let the groom inform the butler to prepare for the dinner.

It was already past 12 o'clock in the morning, and we would be able to have breakfast in a few hours.

But Zong Shen couldn't understand the life of aristocrats. If someone wants to have a dinner, then let's have a dinner.

It just so happened that they hadn't eaten since evening.

The hunger and fullness level has dropped below 60, and the body is also a little tired.

Baron Bezos enthusiastically hugged Zong Shen and walked towards the entrance of the central area.

Vereesa held Bajie behind, while Luna and the Immortal Lancers formed a queue to follow Zong Shen.

The entire central area is separated from Bangcheng by wooden fences.

There are four entrances and exits in four different directions.

Each entrance and exit is more than ten meters wide, corresponding to the main streets of Bangcheng in four directions.

Sliding tracks were laid and a hollow iron door was set up.

This type of iron door is mostly decorative and not defensive at all.

After entering the central area, what comes into view is a large area of ​​green grass.

Stepping on the grass, it is very soft and comfortable.

There are several carriages parked inside, because the central area is not small, and it would take a lot of time to just run to the castle on foot.

"Everyone, please dismount."

"Please comfort this big wild boar and black panther."

"Make sure they don't attack other people."

"All mounts will receive the best possible care."

Baron Bezos turned around and said to Zong Shen and the soldiers behind him.

All the soldiers did not move, but looked at Zong Shen first.

Until Zong Shen nodded, turned around and waved to Luna and the others.

Everyone then got off their mounts and stood respectfully behind Zong Shen.

Whether it was Bajie, the Sentinel Black Panther, or the Andalusian war horses, they were all carefully led away by the servants on standby.

Seeing the reactions of the soldiers, Baron Bezos had a hint of admiration in his eyes.

There is a dedicated stable in the central area with very complete supporting facilities.

Everyone took four carriages and drove towards the castle.

Each one is spacious, with soft upholstery inside and out, and comfortable, soft seats.

Sitting in the carriage and not feeling any bumps, Zong Shen could conclude that the carriage's frame must be specially made.

He and Baron Bezos rode in a carriage, feeling a little sigh in their hearts.

This is the life of a noble, almost without touching the ground.

Moreover, Bezos can only be regarded as a minor noble, and he only controls a state city.

But even so, this kind of life makes Zong Shen very envious.

Not to mention the great nobles who controlled the huge city, the extravagance contained therein definitely exceeded Zong Shen's imagination.

These nobles were born in the happiest era, when the entire continent was plentiful with supplies and wars were rare.

You can settle down to enjoy yourself without having to worry about anything else.

This kind of beautiful situation can be managed well even if it is left to a pig to take charge.

More than 70% of the nobles have never even experienced a serious battle.

Less than 25% of the nobles hold military positions.

More or less experienced some battles.

For example, eliminate bandits, bandits, heretics, and monsters that occasionally attack the village.

Only less than half of the remaining nobles have relatively rich combat experience.

The fiefdoms of these nobles are basically border areas, or high-risk areas where terrible aliens are active.

Their fiefdoms are all fortress-type cities with powerful garrison troops.

It is always necessary to passively accept the test of battle.

Strictly speaking, these nobles are the mainstay of the entire kingdom.

The other nobles have long forgotten the glory of their ancestors, and it is not an exaggeration to say that they have collapsed.

But guarding this extremely wealthy family and situation, what else can you do besides having fun?

Combined with the understanding of aboriginal power these days.

In fact, the more Zong Shen thought about it, the more something was wrong.

It is obvious that the aboriginal kingdom is silently controlled by an invisible hand.

Especially the inexplicable global peace, which seems very strange.

When the younger generations are content with enjoying themselves and have abundant materials, there will be no reason to start a war.

Behind all large-scale wars there must be sufficient interests.

Just love, hate and enmity will never trigger a kingdom war.

Now Zong Shen can only figure out the whole world from a third party's perspective.

The combination of many pieces of information made him feel that the current aboriginal forces were like fat pigs waiting to be slaughtered.

There will be no loss or waste before the feast begins.

The situation of the lords is actually no better than that of the aborigines.

The lord system treats the lords like they are raising worms.

I want to choose the strongest one among them.

Even though he knew in his heart that the Lord System was secretly controlling everything.

Now it is impossible to find the context of resistance, nor to glimpse their ultimate goal.

This feeling made Zong Shen a little crazy.

It was as if he was being pushed forward by an irresistible torrent.

Although the strategy module also mentioned it several times to allow him to develop with peace of mind.

But whenever he thought about this, he felt uncontrollably flustered.

This feeling of being unable to resist is really bad!

In the carriage, Baron Bezos was stroking the pendant and pocket watch.

Zong Shen was distracted.

The distance from the central area to the castle is only a kilometer or two.

Three or four minutes later, the carriage drove into the castle.

Then he stopped in front of the main building.

Baron Bezos politely guided Zong Shen out of the carriage.

At this time, the hall on the first floor was brightly lit.

A long red carpet was laid out at the door, and the ground was covered with flower petals.

A beautiful maid in maid uniform stood waiting at the door.

Several well-dressed and well-groomed housekeepers took the initiative to greet them.

Baron Bezos and Zong Shen walked into the hall side by side.

Behind him, Vereesa, Luna and the Immortal Lancers also walked into the hall.

There is a row of weapon racks at the door, and all visitors' weapons must be placed on the weapon racks.

Zong Shen's weapons are all stored in storage compartments, so there is nothing to put them away.

Vereesa put down her quiver and just carried the Hippogriff bow on her back.

Luna glanced at Zong Shen and saw that he had no objection before placing the moon blade on the weapon rack.

The same goes for the Immortal Lancers, who put the shields and swords they carried with them on the weapon racks.

The dinner was still being prepared, and everyone followed Bezos into the hall.

This is simply everyone's dream mansion.

As the main building of the castle, there are five floors in total.

There are more than thirty rooms on each floor, as well as terraces, halls, luxurious baths, restaurants, living rooms, emergency armaments depots, and food warehouses.

The decoration is extremely luxurious, with bright crystal magic headlights above your head and soft carpets under your feet.

There are exquisite decorative oil paintings on the walls, as well as decorative stands with various small statues.

Baron Bezos took everyone to a living room on the first floor.

This living room is large enough to accommodate dozens of people.

There is a huge oval round table in the middle.

Everyone settled down first.

He and Zong Shenze sat side by side at the top.

"Everyone, the dinner still needs a while to prepare."

"I will arrange a room for everyone tonight."

"This is the safest place in all of Boss State."

"Everyone can relax."

As the owner of the castle, Baron Bezos stood up first and said politely.

Everyone paid him attention.

After Zong Shen finished speaking, he stood up.

"Mr. Bezos is too kind."

"It is an honor for us to receive your hospitality."

Hearing what Zong Shen said, Bezos smiled.

He took the initiative to pull Zong Shen to sit down.

"Sit down, sit down, I don't know your name yet."

"Although your Excellency is mature, I think you are only in your twenties at most."

"You are so young and promising."

“I think back when I was in my twenties, all I wanted to do was go on adventures.”

Baron Bezos said with some sigh that he is 63 years old this year.

They are already grandfathers on earth.

However, because of his pampered lifestyle and his adventure experiences in his youth, he does not look old.

In fact, Baron Bezos is not physically weak.

His attributes are almost equivalent to a third-level warrior.

In this fantasy world of swords and sorcery, his situation is not surprising.

But in every aspect, Baron Bezos can be regarded as Zong Shen's elder.

Now he interacts with Zong Shen as an equal.

He even addressed Zong Shen as your Excellency.

This is enough to give Mr. Zong face.

After all, he is a serious nobleman, even if his abilities in other aspects are not good.

At least the etiquette is absolutely in place.

"My name is Zong Shen."

"Sir, just call me Xiao Zong."

He gave Zong Shen face, and Zong Shen would naturally give him face.

"Well... Zong Shen..."

"This is a really special name."

"It is said that there is a mysterious continent at the other end of the vast East China Sea."

"Their names are similar to yours."

Baron Bezos felt a little strange.

At the same time, a piece of breaking news was provided.

The sea in the eastern part of the continent…

Zong Shen once got a mysterious broken horn.

Clues also point to the mainland's East China Sea.

Similar naming…

Eastern Continent…

This made Zong Shen a little distracted for a while.

When Baron Bezos saw Zong Shen's appearance, he thought his topic was too embarrassing.

He coughed twice quickly and started to change the topic.

"Ahem, Xiao Zong... Your Excellency, did you want to ask me for help with something just now?"

Hearing what Baron Bezos said, Zong Shen came back to his senses.

"Yes, my lord."

"I established a settlement in the area where Azshara's ruins are located."

"I want to get an official license."

“Avoid becoming an illegal settlement.”

"For this reason, I am willing to pay a dinar to the state every year in accordance with the rules."

Baron Bezos listened carefully.

After listening to Zong Shen's question, a relaxed smile appeared on his face.

"Oh, dear Zong Shen."

"It's not a big deal."

"I will ask the internal affairs officer in Bangcheng to issue a certificate early tomorrow morning."

"As for the dinar, it's completely exempt."

"I can even provide you with some extra help in the development of your settlement."

"For example, sending no more than one squadron of state troops to garrison. "

"Or let the Bangcheng caravan incorporate your settlement into the trade route."

Baron Bezos stopped on the road and explained a bunch of preferential strategies before Zong Shen could speak.

After all, he has been in charge of Bospan for more than 20 years.

They have a clear idea of ​​what is urgently needed for the development of the settlement.

Zong Shen's expression remained calm.

"In that case, I won't be polite."

"There is no need to garrison the city army."

"As for the caravan from Bangcheng, I welcome it."

"My goal is to develop the territory into a brand new state city."

He said directly, testing Baron Bezos's reaction.

The smile on Baron Bezos's face became even brighter.

He reached out and patted Zong Shen on the shoulder, giving him a look of approval and encouragement.

"It's not easy to build a state from scratch."

"You must have seen the scale and situation of Bosbon."

"Among all the cities in the human kingdom, it can only be ranked at the middle or lower level."

"If you want to develop from a settlement to a state city, it will take decades in the best case scenario."

Baron Bezos said with a smile. He regarded Zong Shen's words as the young man's lofty ambitions.

Zong Shen remained silent because what Baron Bezos said was indeed the truth.

At least that's true for Aboriginal people.

But he is not an aboriginal, he is a lord, who came because of development!
