Chapter 302 Grissi Hundred Households District
PS: Ask for tickets, ask for subscriptions
A fairly sumptuous feast allowed Lemire's tired body and mind to be satisfied and relaxed.
At night, when a young and beautiful maid lay beside the bed, Lemuel hesitated, and in order to relax his body more, he froze for three seconds and pounced on him.
Since it's delivered to your door, let's enjoy it!
A good night's dream.
The next day, Lemuel opened his eyes and saw that there was a vacant place beside him, and the maid who had made him happy and relaxed yesterday was gone.
Lemire was not surprised by this.
After following Rodney, the mayor of the 100th district, for more than half a year, he has long been familiar with the routines of these squires and nobles, which can also be said to be hospitality.
For those nobles and gentlemen, as well as wealthy people, the beautiful maids in the family are actually to entertain guests, which is both affordable and convenient.
That is why Lemire enjoyed it so comfortably, and he knew that it was only a trivial matter for himself, and for Sir Fisher.
I got up, tidied up my clothes, and then I took a step and walked out of the room.
As soon as he went out of the door, the beautiful maid from the previous night stood by the door, with a smile on her face, quietly waiting.
"Sir, please come with me, my master has prepared breakfast for you in the dining room!"
The maid seemed to have no idea what had happened last night, and said softly.
"Okay!"
Lemuel looked at the servants who were busy walking around, and did not know that he had gotten up late, or had missed breakfast.
He was still a little embarrassed for a while, but fortunately the maid kept her head down and didn't look at him.
He didn't have any pretension at this time, and directly followed the maid and walked towards the so-called restaurant step by step.
After about two or three minutes, Lemire turned left and right and came to a spacious and bright room.
In the middle of the room, a twenty-foot-long (six-meter-long) red dining table is placed in the center, on which are several pots of bright red and beautiful flowers.
From a distance, the dining table is smooth and reflective, and the four edges of the table are carved into brightly colored artworks, flowers, animals, and even people, to name a few, looking luxurious and rich.
Soon, two or three servants brought hot bread and milk.
Lemuel looked at the soft and blackened bread in front of him, stunned for a moment, and then swallowed it heavily.
After breakfast, when Lemire was about to consult Sir Fisher, he was told by the butler that Sir Fisher had gone to Cambridge and would not be back until a few days, and hoped that he would be considerate.
In this regard, Lemuel could only pack up his salute and follow Sir Fisher's butler single-handedly to the hundred households where he would stay for a few years.
Of course, the carriage he had rented had returned to Cambridge yesterday, and this time he could only go to Sir Fisher's carriage, which, of course, had already seen his situation and had arranged it for special orders.
It's a good deal to be a favor for such a small thing.
The effect, naturally, is very significant.
For a moment, Lemire had an unprecedented affection for this Sir Fisher, who was only inferior to his predecessor, the Governor of Rodney.
Sitting in the carriage, Sir Fisher's butler, an old black-haired butler, like Sir Fisher, was full of spirit, with a smile on his face and a very friendly look.
Seeing this, his body swayed with the carriage for a while, and Lemire, with a gentle smile on his face, turned to the butler and asked:
"Mr. Butler, I have a question, I don't know if I can ask for advice!"
Lemuel's voice diverted the attention of the old butler, and he saw that his somewhat cloudy eyes looked at the young Baizhan who was about to take office in front of him, and said with a smile: "Of course, you said, as long as I know, I will naturally explain it to you!" ”
There was no cowardice in the face of officials in his words, nor contempt for ordinary people, so he said with just the right amount of humility.
When Lemuel heard this, his heart passed for a while, and he understood that there was only part of the question that he could know, but that was enough.
"The original head of the 100 districts, that is, the former head of the 100 districts I am about to serve, where did he go?"
"That's what happened!" The butler looked suddenly enlightened, and then shook his head lightly and continued: "The original mayor of the 100th district is a prestigious figure in South Cambridge! ”
"He also got the nickname 'Horner the Bold', so to speak, he was in South Cambridge, especially when you are about to arrive in the 100 households area, it can be said that he is in full response!"
Hearing this, Lemuel sighed in his heart: Sure enough, as I expected
"But he has arrived in Cambridge and has become a member of the Lord Governor's command, doesn't he say that he wants to be reformed? No, as soon as our master recommended it, he was transferred to Cambridge! ”
When he heard this, Lemire was shocked, and he understood that this was both a reminder and a warning.
Remind him that Sir Fisher has moved a big stone for you on his next journey, and you must be grateful.
A warning, it is none other than Sir Fisher's ability to move the famous Horner to Cambridge City, so it is possible that he will do the same.
From the powerful mayor of the hundred districts to a small subordinate commanded at will in Cambridge City, the gap is more than a little worse.
"Really? Thank you so much Sir Fisher! ”
Lemuel looked grateful in a timely manner and said again and again.
In an instant, the atmosphere in the carriage was lively, and Lemire had a pleasant conversation with the butler.
The speed of the carriage was very slow, and it was estimated that it would take about half an hour for Lemire to come to the place where he was in charge of the hundred-household district.
A hundred-household district, originally without a name, is basically referred to by the original mayor of the hundred districts.
But at the order of His Majesty the King, the matter of choosing a name with a gesture of effort was achieved at once.
As a result, the largest village in the 100-household district has become the name of the 100-household district, which is the 100-household district of the 100-household district that will stay for a few years in the future.
Lemire and his butler got out of the carriage and came to the largest village, the village of Grissi.
The butler smiled and led the way, he had been to Grissi Village a few times.
Sir Fisher, as the largest squire in South Cambridge, often invited the mayors of the hundred districts and the squires of the hundred households to gather, and the head of Grisee Village was naturally one of the invitees.
The steadfast butler led Lemire to the east end of the village, a small cottage on the riverside of a river, more luxurious than some of the houses in London, and the environment was very good.
Yes, that's right, the river is called the Grissi River, where the name of the village comes from.
The butler came to the door of the village chief's house with ease, and the servant who was familiar with the housekeeper of the knight's house, who often came, went to report and led him into the little cottage.
Soon, a middle-aged man who looked to be in his thirties walked out, with light yellow curly hair, steady and powerful steps, broad arms, and a black gilt hat, which he knew at a glance that he was a rich man.
"Mr. Butler, is there another banquet for Your Excellency?"
As soon as the middle-aged man saw the butler, his eyes only walked around Lemuel, and immediately returned to the butler, with a smile on his face, and asked.
"Mr. Kamat, my master is not holding a banquet right now!"
The butler smiled, but shook his head slightly, then took a step back, protruding Lemir's body.
"This is Mr. Lemire from London, appointed by His Majesty the King, and from now on, he will be the Hundred Districts of your Grissey Village!"
Camaert would not doubt the butler's words, so his eyes suddenly focused on Lemmer's thin body, and the smile on his face deepened.
"It turned out to be His Excellency the Hundred District Chief, what a faux pas, please forgive me for my faux pas!"
As he spoke, Camaert immediately bent down, took off his hat with his right hand, and bowed forward with his left hand.
"Hello, Mr. Kamat!"
Of course, they saluted, and Lemure also bent down and returned the salute.
"It's such a pleasure to see you today!"
As he spoke, Camaert approached Lemire and complimented.
"I just shot a wild deer today, so I just invited Your Excellency to taste it!"
"Mr. Butler, come along!"
The butler shook his head slightly at Camat's invitation and refused, "No, Mr. Cammat, Your Excellency Sir still has something to do with me, forget it today!" ”
Immediately, Kamaert's face showed a look of disappointment,
"Well, next time I have a chance, I'll go hunt another wild deer for you!"
"Okay, I'll wait!"
The butler then greeted Camaert and Lemuel and left on his own.
Next, Lemuel enjoyed a rare roast deer feast.
The next day, Lemuel was taken around several other villages by Camaert, so that everyone in the 100 households district of Grissi knew that the new mayor of the 100 districts had taken office.
After a day of inspections, Lemire got to know the village of Grissi in detail.
There are a total of four villages in the entire Grissi Baihu District, with a population of no less than 500 people, fortunately, there is no manor in the entire Baihu District, otherwise, it will be difficult for him to be a good mayor of the Baihu District.
And there are many difficulties faced, among them, the former 100 district chief's family has a lot of hostility towards him, and more importantly, his family is the largest squire in Grixi Village, owns the most land, and has great power.
The second point is that he has not yet figured out the specific thoughts of the four village chiefs.
Without the help of these four people, it would be absolutely wishful thinking to successfully grasp the power.
So, for the past few days, Lemuel has been staying in the newly built mayor's house in the village of Grisi, trying to think about breaking the situation.
On this day, Lemire could no longer hold his breath, he was going to do a big thing, a big thing he did in London: the people of the household
