Alien landlady

Chapter 273 Earl
After writing a reply to the principal, Bai Tongtong looked through the letters of the nobles in his spare time, and found that Seiya had also written to her, congratulating her on becoming a countess, and all the friends in Castle Chamington were happy for her. And hope she can go back for a few small banquets when she is free.

Bai Tongtong gritted her teeth in some embarrassment. Since it was Seiya's invitation, of course she will go. Fort Chamington has her important business partners, and it is also necessary to go back and see them, even at her own celebration dinner. , they should also be invited to attend.

She wrote back letters to Seiya and wrote invitation letters to her business partners. All letters from other nobles were ignored. If she attended all the banquets, it would seem that she, the countess, was too talkative.

After dinner, Bai Tongtong squatted in the bedroom to study those boxes, and found out all the materials that contained them. She planned to use these materials as reading materials before going to bed in the next few days. Analyzing boring data was her previous job. One, it was only operated by computers at that time, but now it has to be done manually.

Shore got a new job and used a typewriter to translate all these materials. Otherwise, he would be responsible for analyzing the data. A smart person naturally knows what to do.

Two days later, Bai Tongtong wore a grand dress and novel jewelry that no one had ever seen before, and took her handsome knight who was also dressed up to the palace. At the grand earl canonization ceremony, ministers, officials, senior nobles and the archbishop We were all present and witnessed this exciting moment together.

The title of earl is not promoted from baron, but on the premise of retaining her title and territory of baron, she canonize another earl. She has obtained all the traditional territories of Earl of Fauborg, except the one owned by Viscount Camerina. Except for the small manor, the rest of the land is hers, including the church village that is actually controlled by the church, and that village has not been classified as the property of the church.

That night, Bai Tongtong held her celebration dinner in the guild, and invited her friends and some nobles, and the nobles of Marzio were also invited to attend.

The whole banquet was organized by Irene. As a widowed Viscountess, the noble dinner, which caused Bai Tongtong a headache, was of course very handy for her. In just a few days, she fully realized her potential , made full use of the channels of the guild store, and purchased a lot of items that had never been prepared before, so that this banquet finally had a level that fit Bai Tongtong's identity.

Bai Tongtong only provided the only help for this banquet, which was to use her food-grade stainless steel to make tableware. As for the seafood in the dinner, Ah Huang went to the seaside city of Marzio to buy it.

The invited guests arrived one after another in the afternoon. Whether it is the magic world or ordinary people, long-distance transmission needs time to rest. Bai Tongtong’s old acquaintances are all there, and the nobles of Marzio are Ah Huang After buying seafood in the afternoon, I went to the capital to pick them up. Bai Tongtong also politely invited the ministers, and they all sent their chief assistants as representatives to attend.

The shiny silver stainless steel tableware aroused the praise and curiosity of the guests, but after the banquet, the servants cleaned the tableware and counted the quantity, and the housekeeper Abel reported to Bai Tongtong that some small stainless steel tableware, small spoons and other things were missing. No one knows that XZ is on him.

The guests have already gone back, and even the nobles of Gamarzio have been sent back to the country by Ah Huang. It is definitely unrealistic to find them all. They can only be lost as soon as they are lost. Some of the small stainless steel utensils have to be thrown away for a while, until no one is interested in them anymore.

Bai Tongtong was not angry or annoyed. The loss of tableware was an advertising opportunity for her. The more people knew about it, the more powerful smelter owners might come out to seek cooperation.

With the expansion of the territory, the places to spend money have multiplied. She is really not interested in political struggles, but whoever dares to influence her to make money, she will let Ah Huang bite them to death.

The next day, Bai Tongtong had to hold a small banquet at night, inviting the mayors of the two territories and the priest of Fabao Town to attend. She also sent Xiao Er and A Huang to Besh Town in the Kingdom of Newland with the invitation letter. In the town that is good at making paper, Bai Tongtong intends to establish a long-term cooperative relationship with their businessmen, and they will supply special printing paper on a regular basis.

It’s not far to Besh Town, it’s just to cross the border from Wismar illegally, pass through the forest, and then walk a short distance to the inland. Ah Huang is carrying Xiaoer on his back, and the Avenue of Elements appears at his feet, running from the air at a direct distance to save Earth escape brings discomfort to human beings.

In the town of Besh, where business is booming as always, a big cat beast descended from the sky with a knight carrying a weapon on its back. The townspeople and merchants were in a mess after a short surprise, and the crowd screamed and ran away and avoided , Shops, workshops and houses closed their doors and windows. After a while, the streets were empty, only unowned vehicles and lonely animals.

Xiao Er got off Ah Huang and shrugged his shoulders at it. Ah Huang shook his head and led the way, taking Xiao Er to find the mayor.

This wealthy town has a special town hall, and the doors and windows are naturally tightly closed. Ah Huang took Xiao Er through the wall and entered, and the people who were still in shock hiding in the house started crying and howling again. If someone stood on the street and listened, It feels like something is going on inside.

But in fact, Xiao Er and Ah Huang didn't do anything, they just stood in the meeting hall, looking helplessly at the shivering and screaming people curled up under the table.

Ah Huang walked around the table and dragged the mayor out. He barked like an animal about to be slaughtered, but when Xiao knelt down and looked at him, he immediately shut up.

"Are you the mayor?"

"Yes, sir. I am Vega, the mayor of this town." The mayor sat up with his hands propped up, and he seemed less panicked. As the mayor of a prosperous business town, he is still somewhat capable.

"I'm Knight Shaw, this is just the shadowless cat Ah Huang, I think you may have heard of it."

"Shadowless Cat?! Oh! Yes, I know it's the magic pet of the magician lady, and each of us has heard of her!" The mayor, Vega, looked at A Huang carefully, no longer feeling afraid, And call the companions under the table to come out together.

"I'm sorry for scaring you just now. I was appointed by the Countess of Fabao of the Kingdom of Gulis, that is, the president Bai of the Magician Guild of Fabao Town, to extend an invitation to you. Yesterday, she was just invited by our great His Majesty Ascombe IV canonized him as the Countess, and tonight a small banquet will be held at the guild, and the mayor is asked to choose three companions to go with him."

"Today, today and tonight? Earl's banquet?!" Mayor Vega's eyes widened, and his companions gathered together, everyone's face was so shocked, "Thank you, Miss Countess, for your invitation, but this is too hasty Now, we really don't have any preparations, and we don't even have a proper dress for such a good banquet."

"It's okay, it's just a small banquet tonight, and only the mayor of her territory is invited to join you, in order to have a better long-term relationship in the future. If you remember, in the past few months, there has been a strange Businesswoman, I only buy one kind of paper product every time I come here, and I must buy out all the stocks.”

"Yes, yes, there is such a businesswoman who walks alone. She uses space bags to pack goods. Every time she buys a large amount, she only buys one kind of paper."

"That's right, she is our countess, of course, she was still a baroness at that time."

Vega and his companions immediately laughed heartily, and the worries just now were swept away, "Let's go! Let's go! Respected knight, we must go!"

"Then, hurry up and find three more businessmen, put on your best clothes, and then we'll set off in the afternoon. Ah, by the way, get those papers ready too, old rules, everything is needed." Xiao Er took the invitation letter Come out and hand it to the mayor.

"Okay, respected knight, please take a good rest here, the shadowless cat can also move freely, let's go to the town to prepare, the goods will be ready soon." The mayor of Vega left a helper to entertain the guests, Can't wait to go out with others.

The street soon became lively again. Many men, women and children came to watch, and the merchants went to besiege the mayor. Everyone wanted the three guest spots, especially the factory owners who fought hard. The production capacity can meet the needs of Bai Tongtong.

Ah Huang didn't want to stay in the small town hall. He swaggered into the street, enjoying the fun of being chased and adored, and frightened the women and children to scream from time to time, but even so, they were still willing to follow him. The long straw teases it.

The big cat walked around the town two or three times before returning to the town hall, and took Xiaoer to the surrounding villages to check their papermaking raw materials, visit the village workshops and the papermaking process of the workshop, and estimate their real output. , When talking about business, you are not afraid of businessmen bragging.

Xiao Er returned to the town before noon, and the mayor finally selected three guests to attend the banquet together. They are all the largest paper merchants in the town. They have their own raw material plantations and workshops in their respective villages, and the monthly output It is considerable, and I promise to allocate a part of the output to produce the paper products that Miss Bai countess needs.

All the papers that Bai Tongtong needed were transported to the town office. After paying the money, Xiao Er packed them all away in a space bag. Then the mayor took him to the best restaurant in the town and invited him to have lunch, and then invited him to take a lunch break at home. Huang led them back to the guild. These ordinary people who had never been exposed to magic passed out as soon as they returned to the ground, and they were sent to the small lounge to have a good rest.

Ah Huang put down the guests from Besch Town, and rushed to Wismar to bring the mayor over there. As for the mayor and the priest from Faburg Town, they also arrived in a carriage at afternoon tea time. up.

Today, Bai Tongtong only invites these people. They are all future long-term partners. Since the church is on her territory, she will maintain friendly relations with them for the psychological needs of the people.

Because there are not many guests, it is enough to use a screen as a partition. In order to prevent the loss of stainless steel tableware, before everyone sits at the same table to share the tea, Bai Tongtong gives each person a set of stainless steel tableware, which contains various spoons, forks, and knives There are all of them, which definitely meet the daily needs of a family of three or four people, so there is no need to buy extra.

At this wonderful banquet, the guests all promised to get along with each other in the future. The mayor of Fubao Town swore allegiance to Bai Tongtong for the first time, and thanked her for helping the town's economy as the president of the Magician's Guild.

I used to see the mayor both have to be polite, but now that the mayor is his subordinate, the mentality is different. The only one who can sit on an equal footing with Bai Tongtong is this priest, and when everyone chats, this priest turns the topic Arrived at the top of the earl's mansion in the town.

After the death of the last Countess of Forborg, the mansion became a church, but in fact, according to the property list of the Earl's territory obtained by Bai Tongtong, there is no church property in the entire town of Forborg.

After the death of the last earl, the land of the earl was nationalized as a whole. Because of the special situation of the border town, His Majesty the king did not redistribute it. The church has used the mansion for so many years and has not even paid rent. The church village is also the former first earl. It was only lent to the church with the consent of the church, and the rent has been confiscated since then.In other words, Bai Tongtong could reasonably and reasonably want to return to the house as her Earl's Mansion, and drive away those lunatics.

However, the earl’s mansion, which has a construction history of more than 200 years, is not necessarily willing to use it as a residence again when it comes back. People, how could they hope to return to the backward life of using toilets, bathtubs and well water.

The priest asked a good question, but Bai Tongtong didn't want to talk about the right to use the house and the village in front of the guests. She simply made an appointment with the priest to discuss it with him tomorrow morning.

From the afternoon tea to the end of the dinner, a relaxed and cheerful atmosphere was maintained. The gift from Bai Tongtong probably had an effect. After washing the dishes in the kitchen, there was no lack of quantity, and even a single spoon was not lost.

On the next Thursday morning, after morning prayers, Bai Tongtong rushed to the church to meet the priest. The mayor sent the townspeople away, and then came back again. Er and Ah Huang stood together.

This is the first time that Bai Tongtong has entered the Earl's Mansion. When he entered the gate, it was an open hall like an auditorium. Except for the large pillars supporting it, there was no partition wall. When he looked up, he could directly see the high ceiling and the second floor. There is a corridor, but the stairs are hidden somewhere, and there are colorful religious murals on all sides. There is a two-person tall god with a vague face at the position where the priest stands.

Nipa does not advocate specific idol worship. They believe that gods walked around the world with different appearances at the beginning of the creation of the world, so each believer sees different appearances of gods. Only those with purer and more pious beliefs can see them. Therefore, the holy city far abroad attracts countless believers to worship every year, while in a church of this level in Fabao Town, the appearance of the statue is only a vague outline.

But just such a plaster statue is enough to drive believers crazy.
