I am reborn as a lord in Rome

When George was in the middle of his head, there was a sudden noise outside the door, with people shouting, some shouting, mixed with the sound of footsteps, horses, ......

George frowned, stopped, pulled away the maid's hands around his waist, and sat up.

"Master, what's the matter?" the maid wrapped around like a snake.

"Wait a minute. George angrily pushed the maid away, and the knock at the door came to his ears.

"Sir, sir. Harriman shouted outside the door.

"What's going on outside?" George hesitated for a moment, pulled the robe beside the bed and draped it over his body, and the maid saw him like this, and quietly pouted, only then did she notice that the movement outside the door was wrong, and her heart suddenly chuckled.

"Master, it can't be a bandit, right?" asked the maid in a low voice.

"Sir, the firewood room and kitchen are on fire. Harriman replied with a raised voice.

"Fire?!" George's heart was half relieved, if it was a bandit, it would be more troublesome, and there would be a few more casualties.

"I don't know what's going on, it burns. Harriman said, "We're putting out the fire now, but it's better for the master to get out of here."

George hesitated, then said hello, Harriman came and knocked on the door, the fire was estimated to not be extinguished for a while, otherwise Harriman's temperament would not have bothered him.

George was right, and by the time he had finished dressing and pulling the maid out of the door, the fire in the kitchen and firewood room had already spread, and the flames had not only engulfed the kitchen and firewood, but the raging tongue of fire was still licking everything that could burn nearby......

Seeing this, George hurriedly quickened his pace, and asked Harriman as he walked, "Didn't you hurt anyone?" His entourage was quite a lot, and in order to make Woolley and the others have nowhere to sleep, even four of them were stuffed into the firewood room, and he couldn't wait to throw two of them into the kitchen.

"Nope. Harriman replied as he led the way, "It's a little far from the water source, and the fire was already raging when it was discovered.

As he spoke, two attendants rushed over, and after a hurried salute, one of them leaned into Harriman's ear and said something, and then hurried to the front yard.

Harriman hesitated for a moment, then turned to George and said, "Sir, the food we put in the kitchen was not saved. "

Huh?" George was stunned, and suddenly stopped fighting, "Bastard, I can't even look at some food, what will I do on the road tomorrow?"

Harriman chuckled in his heart, yes, tomorrow will really not pass through any villages and towns, so many people are waiting with their mouths open, what should I do?

At the same time, Woolley was sitting in the carriage, the window of the car was open, facing the inn not far away, and in his sight, dozens of people were running and shouting, carrying buckets, holding wooden sticks, whining and shouting, and the fire in the backyard of the inn had already illuminated half of the night sky in gold.

"It's really dry, and if you say it's burning, it's burning. Woolley said with a smile to Gruul, who was sitting next to him.

Guru glanced at Woolley, and said in his heart What does this fire have to do with the weather, and he rushed to me to sleep well and was pulled by you to watch the excitement, which can very well explain who the "culprit" is.

"Master, why didn't they put out the fire?" El asked.

"I can't save it, it's burning too fast, and now I'm rushing into the fire, and I can only die. Woolley smiled and said, "Look at this, Your Excellency Archon George will not be able to sleep peacefully tonight." "

Wu Lai, you said that the innkeeper is also quite unlucky, after dawn, do you want to throw two silver coins to him to comfort and comfort?" Guru asked with a smile, but he was really a little unbearable in his heart, this is a poor and remote place, the inn was burned down for no reason, and the boss is afraid that it will not be too easy.

"It's rare that you have a merciful heart, and it's okay, the silver coin is too stingy, you can throw a few gold coins to him depending on the situation, comfort him, and tell him by the way, the gold coin was given to you by my Woolly Green, lest he think that it was given by George's old boy, and he did a personal favor for him. Woolley laughed and said.

"yes, okay. Gruul nodded.

At dawn the next day, although George knew that the fire had started strangely last night, he did not mention a word, although the food was burned, fortunately, there were many followers, although there were no villages and towns in the road ahead, but there were still some people who walked back for a little half a day, and it was not difficult to solve the problem by arranging a few people to hurry up, and it was a great luck in misfortune.

Before leaving, Gruul shoved five gold coins into the hand of the innkeeper who was crying and mourning: "This is given to you by the citizens of Wooleglindor, the Divine Favor, enough for you to repair."

The innkeeper accepted the gold coin in a sincere panic, he had thought that Harriman would compensate him a little bit for his loss, but he didn't think that the guy didn't say anything, and he almost didn't lie to himself, and he was sad that a personable young man would hand him five gold coins.

Five gold coins are not to mention repaired, in this poor and remote area, even if it is enough to repair it again.

So, the innkeeper remembered the name "Woolledrindo", and years later, this past became his most proud capital, but this is all for later.

Perhaps it was because the fire had made George wary or something else, but from that day on, there was no more incident, and a few days later, the city of Lunvington arrived.

The city of Lenvington is an old city-state in the Assyrian territory, the scale, population, and prosperity are not comparable to Seneca City, not to mention that the city of Lenvington also controls the salt industry of the entire Assyrian territory, and it is definitely a fat difference to serve as an archon here, George has doubled the wealth of the Joyce family in the years that he has been in the city of Lentwin Town.

After entering the city, George's careful thoughts came again - he asked Harriman to send a message to Woolley, saying that he was tired from driving and riding all the way, and that he would rest for two days, and let Woolley take care of himself for the two days, and see him at the mansion in two days.

After listening to this, Woolley didn't feel anything, George was deliberately snubbing himself, but so what? You don't want to see me, do I want to see you? Take a two-day break to take a stroll, and also take a look at what is so brilliant about the city of Lunwinton, which is known as the "salt capital".

The carriage and horses broke away from George's convoy, and Woolley's interest suddenly swelled several times, although he was the first time to come, but Gruul was not, not only not, before he went to study at the Assyrian Civic College, he had to spend some time in the city of Rwington almost every year, because his youngest uncle was in the city of Rincington to buy and sell salt, and before Gruul met Woolley, the person he admired the most was his little uncle.

As a result, Gruul was a good guide, and he was able to get Woolley the most hospitable ...... in the city of London

Two mornings later, Gruul drove Woolley to the door of George's residence.

"I should have told you something, and if he was rude, I couldn't help but not be angry. Guru was a little worried, and since the night of the fight, Woolley set off a fire, and he found that Woolley was not the kind of person who could not bear it.

"Don't worry. Woolley nodded, "I'm measured."

"I'll be waiting for you here, and if it's too early, we'll be able to leave today." Guru said.

"It should be soon, and I guess George won't want to talk to me about it either. Woolley grinned and stepped inside.

As soon as he walked into George's office, Woolley immediately felt a solemn atmosphere rushing over his face.

In addition to George, there were two people in the office, one was about thirty years old, thin and beardless, standing by the window and looking out of the window, as if he didn't notice Woolley knocking on the door and coming in, and the other was more than thirty years old, sitting on the big round chair in front of the desk.

Woolley was happy in his heart, and said in his heart, did he come out in such a position to scare me?

"Oh, Woolley Greenor, you're finally here. George said with a smile, "You came just in time, let me introduce you, these two are your bosses." "

This also needs to be said, I am a town consul, and I am only the number one in Salt Marsh Town, and in the city of Lunwinton, if you arrest any official here, it will be my boss. Although Wu Lai was so slanderous in his heart, he also had a smile on his face, after all, he had to follow the rules of the scene, and it was not feasible to do it casually here.

"This is Adjutant Hodge, the commander of the First Army in London. George smiled and pointed to the big man.

"Hodge, Hodge Duncan. The big man said with an arrogant face, "Woolleygrindor, let me remind you of one thing, there is no garrison in Salt Marsh Town, but the First Legion has the obligation to protect Salinmarsh Town, so when you need the help of the Legion, you must apply in advance, and in addition, according to the custom, you have to be responsible for the military expenses incurred as a result."

Woolley nodded.

George pointed to someone else, "This is Jobs Adams, the treasurer, and the salt owner of the city-state of Lunvington. "

Adams? Woolley remembered that Rinney reminded that the influence in the Senate was followed by the Duncan family, and it was the Addams family that worked together to ensure the smooth victory of Qiyuan back then.

However, the Addams family is magnificent, but they are much more low-key than the Duncan family, and Woolley did not expect to meet one in the city of Lunvinton, the salt owner, who is not inferior to George, the consul.

Speaking of which, Woolley has also seen the Big Three of Lunvington City at one time.

"Woolledlindo, I don't have anything in particular to instruct. Jobe turned back slowly, and said expressionlessly, "The salt production in Salt Marsh Town has been frustrated, you went there, and you have to spend your main energy on resuming production, you know?"

As if staying here to say these two words, Job and Hodge left immediately, and although Woolley was not happy in his heart, he also relied on etiquette, so the two really didn't pick out any thorns.

"Sit down. George pointed to his chair and said to Woolley.

After Woolley sat down, George cleared his throat and said, "Woolley Grindor, you are about to rush to the town of Salt Marsh, and I, as your commander, should have something to explain before you leave, if you are willing to listen, then it is very good, if you are not happy, please take care of yourself, but you must remember that this is Lenvinton, not Assyria, let alone Seneca.

"Your Excellency, I will take your teachings to heart. Woolley smiled and said.

"I hope so. George nodded and said, "The town consul is the smallest consul in the territory, so you must first learn to respect your boss, because only in this way, your governance in salt marsh town can be smooth, don't always think about how rich you are, how wide you travel, although these can help your governance, but they are not the most important, the Supreme Council and the Senate value your ability to govern, make achievements, everyone will affirm you."

Woolley nodded, and he had to admit that what George said made sense.

"Coordination is important, especially in a backcountry like Salt Marsh, and you can't get anywhere without help. George paused, then continued, "When you first arrive, you have to learn to listen to everyone's opinions, the few officials who are currently staying in Salt Marsh Town have been working in Salt Marsh Town for a long time, they have a lot of experience, put down the shelf, befriend them, you will get twice the result with half the effort, and if you do the opposite, you will be unable to move an inch everywhere......"

"...... The resumption of production in Salt Marsh Town is imminent, and you need to pay attention to ......

""...... The plague and the banditry have made the people of Salt Marsh Town disheartened and uneasy, so you have to pay more attention to ......"

...... The horse road, the parapet, and the salt pans have all been seriously damaged, you have to pay more attention......"

Wu Lai nodded from time to time, and his face was ...... earnestly

At noon, Gruul finally saw Woolley.

"What did George say?" said Gruul.

"What else can I say, let me think about it more. Woolley stretched, "It's a little later than expected, but don't delay, let's go."

"No problem. Gruul laughed, "Our town consul is getting closer and closer to his own territory."

"Of course. Woolly raised his eyebrows with a smile, "I can't wait." "
