Chapter 84

In the morning, Ron woke up early and started a new day's work.

It is said to be work, but it is actually a matter that Joyce cannot decide and needs to be authorized by him, the lord.

Some things are important, and some things are small, but they all require the consent and authorization documents of the lord.

He came to the newly built office room. The layout of the room was designed by Colin, with a simple yet elegant style.

There are few things for decoration, just right at a glance, without disturbing people, giving people a sense of tranquility and comfort.

After Ron came to his desk, there was a smaller desk to the left where Joyce worked.

At this time, the documents to be processed had been sorted out on his desk, which Joyce had placed here the night before, and she arranged them in order of classification and order, waiting for Ron to deal with them the next day.

Ron opened the first book.

It was Hadey's request for resource application. Didn't the power of attorney for mineral resources be handed over to Joyce?
He continued to read, and what Hadey applied for was not minerals, but several plants he had planted in the vegetable garden!
The grounds are for winemaking.

It had only matured for a few days, and he was being targeted. Ron was in a complicated mood, and after hesitating for a while, he still approved Hadey's application.

Continue to look at the next one, this time it is Nancy's application documents. With the lessons learned from the past, Ron is not surprised to see the following content. Nancy wants to change into more mature clothes, at least not with Melittoia same clothes.

Ron drew a cross on the application paper without hesitation, and then continued to read the next one.

This is Rosalind's application document. It contains many points. It is mainly to generate income for Arnold's territory and sell the special products of the territory to outsiders. While earning funds, it will also help to establish the name of the business group in the future.

These so-called specialties include 'dedicated kordo', black mud, popsicles, melon seeds, etc.

Rosalind also set the price, calculated how much profit each product would generate, and wrote them down on the paperwork.

After reading the entire essay-like application document, Ron thought about it. Arnold's territory is no longer barren, and the alchemy product made by Nancy—'black mud' is not very helpful to the territory. It is better to sell it and give it to Carlo. other territories of the kingdom.

The raw materials for making 'Black Mud' come from the Black Valley Forest, which can be said to be a monopoly industry and cannot be copied.

'Consecrated Cordo' can also be sold, which is a boon for those areas with little rainfall.

Popsicles and melon seeds, according to Rosalind, are sold as a high-end luxury item to the group of people with strong financial resources and high status.

To be honest, Ron is not optimistic about her idea. The method of making popsicles is extremely simple, and it is not difficult for those who are interested in replicating them.

However, he still agreed to the popsicle plan and rejected the plan to sell 'melon seeds'.

At present, there are not many sunflower seeds. Compared with melon seeds, Ron is looking forward to the oil fried with sunflower seeds. According to Irene, it seems that it is almost finished.

In the end, except for the 'melon seeds' plan, all the others were approved, and what to do after that was something Rosalind should consider.

It took less than an hour, Ron finished the work of the last few days, and left with a relaxed body.

More than half an hour later, Joyce arrived. Seeing the cluttered main desk, he knew from the bottom of his heart that the lord had already arrived.

She walked over and carefully arranged the utensils on the table, then picked up the stack of documents and returned to her place, rewrote the content on it, and called the attendants to deliver it to the applicant.

The people who received the receipt had different reactions. Rosalind immediately found Irene and explained her purpose.

Although the plan to sell melon seeds was rejected, popsicles are also an industry she values.

And Irene knows how to make popsicles best. Apart from popsicles, Irene is also good at making melon seeds and many other desserts. Everyone is convinced of Irene's craftsmanship.

"Irene, I have a cooperation, are you interested?"

Rosalind first showed her the approval document given by Ron, and then asked with a smile.

"Cooperation? If you want to know how to make popsicles, I can tell you directly."

Irene said with an apologetic expression, "I was wrong for catching the pet bird you gave to Mr. Egbert before. I will help you with your business."

"No, in fact, it is enough for Grandpa to receive my gift. And these are two different things, I forgive you."

Rosalind didn't talk much about this topic, she said again: "Let's talk about cooperation, I think you will be happy to accept it."

-

The residence of Viscount Faster.

A deacon hurriedly entered the room and handed a white letter to Viscount Fast.

When Viscount Fast saw the imprint on the sealing wax, his expression became serious, he waved his hand to make the deacon retreat, and opened the envelope only when he was the only one in the room.

a long time.

Viscount Fast became short of breath, and smiled coldly, "He is thoughtful, I will do all the dirty work, sacrifice the subordinates I spent a lot of resources to train, just to cause some trouble for Arnold's territory, and now Let me find a reason to go to war with Baron Arnold."

Immediately afterwards, Viscount Fast showed a smile, "However, this benefit really cannot be refused."

According to the letter, he will be given merit enough to be promoted to earl.

When he arrived at the earl, he stepped into the circle of high-ranking nobles. The power and status of the people he befriended were very different, and there was even a slight possibility of marrying the royal family, which would be a step up to the sky.

The other party expected that Viscount Faster would not be able to refuse this temptation, and in fact it was so.

Viscount Fast burned the letter to ashes and walked out of the room, thinking about how to find a suitable reason.

At this moment, a servant came up to him with a nervous expression, Xiao Pao, and said, "Master, Fourth Young Master has caused trouble again."

Viscount Fast showed a familiar expression, "Tell me, what happened to him again?"

"Fourth young master, he...he beat the lady of the Knight Commander's family!"

The servants looked terrified. The leader of the knight group was a rare third-tier knight. The fourth young master beat up his daughter. In the end, it might not do anything to the Fourth Young Master.

Hearing the servant's words, Viscount Fast's eyelids twitched, and he sighed in his heart. His four sons are not worrying every day, causing troubles all day long, and causing trouble for themselves.

Suddenly, an excellent idea flashed in his mind, maybe his troublesome son could help him to be promoted to the earl position.

Thinking of this, the Viscount asked his servants to call the Fourth Young Master to his office.

After a while, in the lord's office, Viscount Fast sat opposite a young man.

The boy was the Viscount's fourth son, named Jim.

"Father, what's the matter with you calling here? If it's about the daughter of the Knight Commander's family, then don't blame me." Jim rushed to push the responsibility without any regret on his face.

Of course, Viscount Faster would not believe his words, but now there are more important things, he said: "I called you here because I want you to visit the Arnold territory next door on behalf of the Faster family."

"Arnold's territory?"

Jim frowned and asked puzzledly: "Is it the poor and shabby Baron Arnold? Fast is a viscount family, why should he visit a mere baron family."

Viscount Fast had expected it a long time ago. He said: "The current Arnold's territory is not poor. The baron's mansion implements many policies, sells a large amount of monster materials, uses the money to develop the territory, and squanders to build a new city."

Jim showed an expression of disbelief, and Viscount Faster didn't care whether he believed it or not, and continued: "All these signs indicate that Arnold's territory is about to rise, and it is appropriate to visit as a neighbor."

Hearing this, Jim seemed to understand what his father meant, and he asked, "Then what name should we use to visit?"

Viscount Fast gave him a surprised look, and then said: "All the refugees who came to Viscount's territory went to Arnold's territory, and helped us solve a big problem, so let's use this name to visit and make a good relationship .”

"Okay, I see."

Jim nodded, "Then when shall I go?"

"Go whenever you want, of course the sooner the better." Viscount Fast said with narrowed eyes and a smile.

Jim thought to himself, of course he would go today, the Knight Commander might come to make trouble for him, although he was not afraid, it would be good to go out and relax.

He got up to leave, and Viscount Fast's voice came from behind, "This visit to the Arnold family represents the face of the Fast family, and you should not lose the prestige of the family while giving a certain amount of respect."

When Jim heard this, a smile appeared on his face. He was good at this matter, "Don't worry, father."

-

Arnold territory.

On the newly built street, the road is five feet wide, and the entire road surface is paved with gressite, and there are many buildings on both sides. Although it is just an empty shell now, it can already see a little prosperity in the future from the prototype.

Ron kept nodding as he walked and watched. Amelia and Joyce followed him, and Abel was behind him.

At this time, an architectural expert ran over from a distance, saw Ron and hurriedly saluted, "I'm sorry, my lord, I didn't welcome you."

Ron waved his hand, "That's not necessary, I just came here to take a look."

Although what he said was the truth, experts would not really believe it. He smiled and nodded.

Later, under the leadership of this expert, Ron and others visited the construction site. They did not approach, but just watched from a distance.

The design of the new city is a closed ring, the center is the baron's mansion, the second ring is the farmland, and the third ring is the residences and shops of the citizens. The diameters of the rings are not the same, and the third ring is the farmland. is the largest.

These buildings are just a prototype, and there is no further repair, so a lot of time is saved, and the progress has reached 20% in such a short period of time.

Ron is very satisfied with the current results, and he let the experts go about their own affairs and don't have to accompany them anymore.

After waiting for no one else, he smiled and asked Amelia, "Your Highness, what do you think are the shortcomings compared to the imperial city of the empire?"

This kind of questioning method is very particular. He didn't feel inflated enough to feel that it could be compared with the imperial city of the empire. He just wanted to know where there was something missing.

Amelia looked at Ron, and said in a cold voice, "For a city of this size, it's good enough."

Ron heard her subtext, and asked tentatively, "What if I want to expand the scope of the territory? What else do I need?"

"Then there are many things that need to be done, not only to set up a special management agency, but also to"

Amelia entered the working state, and words that Ron did not understand popped out of her mouth from time to time, and only Joyce next to her listened with gusto.

"His Royal Highness."

Ron interrupted her to continue.

Amelia came back to her senses. She looked up at Ron and said, "This is not a simple matter. If the baron is interested, I will write a note and give it to Joyce when I get back."

"That's really great, thank you Your Highness for being so generous, I don't even know how to thank you." Ron laughed.

Seeing his appearance, Amelia chuckled, "As long as the baron promises to give me one of your precious things, I won't ask for any other thanks."

Hearing this, Ron smiled politely, next time for sure.

Baron's Mansion, a luxurious carriage came in front of the gate of the mansion, and a young man got off the horse arrogantly.

Egbert was about to go out to do some errands, when he saw a carriage parked in front of the gate with a flag on the roof, he felt confident.

"The mansion has not received a letter from the Fast family. May I ask why you are here?" Egbert stepped forward and asked forcefully.

Although the other party is from the Viscount family, he must not lose the majesty of the Arnold family.

The boy was Jim. He showed an elegant gesture and introduced himself: "I am the fourth son of the current head of the Fast family, Jim Fast."

"At the order of my father, I came to visit Baron Arnold this time. Because Lord Baron Arnold kindly accepted the refugees from the Fast Territory, I would like to thank Lord Baron."

Jim said loudly that although he was stubborn, he still understood the basic noble etiquette.

Egbert wanted to say something, but Jim said again: "I would like to ask Lord Baron Arnold to forgive me for this presumptuous visit."

Having said all this, Egbert can only invite people in, otherwise there will be rumors that Baron Arnold has a small temper.

"Master Jim, the lord is busy with business and is not at the mansion, please wait here." Egbert led Jim and his entourage to the living room.

Because the mansion was renovated and remodeled, most of the maids and servants had work to do, so Egbert apologized for this.

"That's not necessary, on the contrary, I delayed the baron's business." Jim nodded understandingly.

Afterwards, after Egbert left, Jim began to feel bored after staying in the living room for a while, got up and left, and said to the followers who were about to follow: "Don't follow me."

He wandered around the mansion alone, looking at the gorgeously built mansion, Jim was greatly surprised, with a look of jealousy on his face, "It's a baron family that lives better than me, damn it."

After strolling around for a while, he saw two figures when he passed a courtyard, he let out a small sigh, and then walked over.

In the courtyard, Melittoya was holding a popsicle, with a sweet smile on her face, and said, "Sister Irene, do you really not want to eat it?"

Irene pursed her mouth, "Little Meili, you've failed in learning, be careful and I'll tell the young master!"

Melittoya was about to speak when a figure came up behind her and snatched the popsicle from her in an instant, followed by Jim's voice, "What is this? Why haven't I seen it before? Hey, tell me this is What?"

Suddenly a person appeared, and Melittoya was startled. Irene quickly protected her behind her and said, "Who are you?"

Seeing that Irene was dressed in a maid's attire, Jim was so angry that he dared to question him in such a lowly status, and he slapped him.

With a slap, Irene received a solid slap.

"Sister Erin!"

Melittoya cried out anxiously, thinking that Irene was beaten to protect herself, she was filled with guilt.

She glared at Jim with wide eyes, and stood in front of Irene with a determined face. Although her legs were shaking, Melittoia proved that she was worthy of the surname Arnold with her own actions.

"You violated the majesty of the Arnold family!" Awe-inspiring and cold words came from Melittoya's small body.

Jim was taken aback, and then felt ashamed that he was scared by a little girl. He was about to make a move, and the next moment his eyes went dark and he fell forward.

At the entrance of the courtyard, Ron's figure appeared, followed by Egbert and others.

"elder brother."

Ron looked at Melittoia whose legs were still trembling and said 'hmm'. Her voice was loud just now, and everyone had heard it.

He walked around Melitia, came to Irene, stretched out his hand to Irene who lowered her head, and gently stroked her cheek, with a red mark on it.

Ron frowned, and a trace of tyranny flashed in his eyes.

Being touched suddenly, Irene trembled slightly, and slowly raised her head.

In Ron's eyes, the hair on Irene's forehead was a little messy, covering most of her face. He pushed the hair with his fingers to reveal Irene's tearful expression. Her appearance at the moment gave people a hazy and broken look. beauty.

Ron closed his eyes and said, "Melitoya, take Irene for treatment."

"Yes, sir."

After Irene was pulled away by Melitia, Ron opened his eyes again. At this moment, his eyes were cold, and he said in a calm and slow voice: "Which hand he used, he chopped that one, Send it back nicely."

The corner of Amelia's mouth raised slightly, and she said: "If you do this, it will cause conflicts between the two territories, and the worst result will be an endless war."

"Then let's go to war."

Ron's voice was still calm, and the faces of the following knights showed a murderous look.

"Just for a maid? Is it worth it?" Amelia asked again.

Ron turned to look at her, "Isn't that enough?"

Amelia didn't say anything more. At this moment, she wanted to understand a lot of things. What Vivienne said and concealed, she solved part of the answer.

Afterwards, Ron left, and Amelia and others followed him.

The knights all looked at Jim who was unconscious on the ground, and Harvey said, "Which one of you made the move? I didn't even see it clearly."

Everyone shook their heads to express that they were not themselves. Sig said: "At that time, I felt a strong spiritual power, and that power emanated from Her Royal Highness."

Everyone showed surprise, and Abel snorted, "Hurry up and deal with this garbage."

Hearing the captain's words, the Cavaliers scrambled for this opportunity, especially Anthony and Taylor who had the most violent quarrel.

"Hurry up! I have to send this thing back." Seeger is not interested in this, and he will definitely go to war with the Fast Territory later, and he is looking forward to it.

Taylor took the first step and cut off Jim's hand with a sword in front of everyone. Just as they dragged Jim, who was still unconscious, and were about to leave, Anthony's voice sounded, "Taylor, how do you prove that it was cut by you?" What about the lower hand?"

Everyone was stunned.
