In the next half month, Eshu was extremely busy, he scattered the iron guards and dragon knights, mixed into the patrol militia team, Salaman, Wren, and Donovan each led a team, responsible for driving out and clearing the bandits entrenched around the village, the bandits lasted for nearly a week, and the results were remarkable, and the robbers wandering on the snow soon knew that this remote village had come to a capable lord at some point, although there were not many soldiers under his command, but they were all elite people, and it was more than enough to clean them up, so they hid in the dense forest. During this period, Esher also deliberately helped Hephasto and his subordinate craftsmen to establish a voice in Ismolola, and matters such as food rationing, judicial disputes, and tax co-ordination should be left to the master craftsmen, and even the militia had to return their weapons to the artisan camp after completing their daily training and patrols. However, Hephasto was very dissatisfied with this, and privately fired at Eshyus: "It's not yet time for you to be the lord of the hand!" Distributing food and settling accounts are all trivial matters, and they need some academic cultivation to some extent, and if you help, you will help. Only the judiciary must be done by yourself, force can only establish temporary prestige, but impartial arbitration can make you stand up for a long time. For this reason, Hephasto did not hesitate to threaten him with a strike, and Escho reluctantly retracted his order, and set aside two hours a day to convene a lord's court - don't look at the chief craftsman who said it so high-soundingly, in fact, most of the things that need to be arbitrated by Esmoro are trivial matters, and Ismorola has not had a lord for too many years, and the old broken things have accumulated a lot, but fortunately, there have always been external troubles in the village so that the contradictions have not been further intensified, but as there are no more robbers around Ismorola, these contradictions have gradually become prominent. The most troublesome thing for Eshu is that the villagers here have been dealing with the bandits and the Misty Mountain tribe for many years, and their behavior is also full of gangsterism, and they will fight if they disagree. Hephasto was absolutely right in his reluctance to deal with villager disputes, and without Estheau's absolute arbiter at the helm, every Lord's Court would inevitably turn into a brawl. Hephasto came to sit in on the court while Esthew was presiding over the courtroom, and he did not interfere too much, but only gave his own suggestions on Estheu's arbitration after the court was over. There are a few sentences that carry a lot of weight: "...... You need to write a temporary code of laws to refer to, and once you have the guidelines, it will be easy to arbitrate, and it will also be effective in controlling the villagers—there should be scholars who specialize in the law in the Wang Li Academy, and you should find an opportunity to consult them. ”

Ai Xiu reflexively wanted to shirk it: "Shouldn't you find someone with academic cultivation at this time?" You should have researched, or—"

"It has to be from you, even if it's a ready-made copy from the library." Hephasto interrupted Estheu, "So that even if there is an arbiter in the village who specializes in mediating disputes, his judgment will still be based on the code that 'you wrote yourself.'" He didn't continue, but Esher understood what the craftsman meant.

During this time, Ismolora encountered several smaller gray waves, all of which were guarded without danger, and the corpses lying outside the village unexpectedly attracted a large number of hungry wolves in one night. Donovan had already organized the militia to deal with the wolves, but Esher ordered everyone to hide in the stone house and not engage in battle. The aggressiveness and discipline of the wolves rivaled that of the Wolves of Omen, and the fact that it would take a lot of torches to drive away the wolves, neither Eshu nor Hephasto, especially Hephasto, wanted to waste their modest reserves of wood here. In the end, Esher was the only one left outside. Fortunately, most of the wolves only dug up the corpses outside the village, and only some restless snow wolves followed the smell of the living into the village, and then were quietly strangled by Estheu, without alarming the wolves - snow wolves are vindictive by nature, and if they are remembered by such a large wolf pack, Ismolola's future life will only be more difficult. In the early hours of the morning, the wolves retreated, and the villagers came out to disembowelment the snow wolf that Eshua had resolved. Each household was given a string of no less than fifteen catties of wolf meat strips. Wolf skins were well preserved – the Crown's artisans who specialise in fur should still be shopping for whale skins at Windholm, which will not be a commodity until they return. And those craftsmen who went out could not find Ismolola on their own, and how to bring them over was also a big problem.

The work of the two teams of craftsmen, the "Rectangular Seat" and the "Compass Seat", was also hindered to varying degrees. Fortunately, they had planned a relatively safe trade route to the Oldenburg district, but they were extremely lacking in troops to open up and maintain stability; The "Compass" determined the specific location of several ore veins according to Hephaesto's previous guidance, and the bandits entrenched there could not even need to gather troops, and Eshu himself could solve it after a few trips, but the location of the ore veins was too far away from the village, too deep in the dense forest, and it was impossible to set up a mining camp for a while. Hephasto was not in a hurry, and sent the craftsmen to do the work of logging coolies.

Soon, the Misty Mountain bandits rarely "patronized" Ismolola, the pressure on the militia was much less, and the affairs of the village gradually began to operate on its own, as Esher and Hephasto had predicted. Taking advantage of this rare moment, Esher led ten militiamen back to the place where the gray tide had previously encountered along the ice stream, harvested a large number of relatively intact noses, and together with the harvest of the previous bandits, he made a lot of money in Poynbru, and once squeezed out the funds of the Black Spear Knights, and Captain Dahar had to announce the early termination of the bounty season. Except for the purchase of the materials ordered by Hephausto, the rest of the dinar was kept for the public funds for the future development of Ismolola.

Esher did not forget to go to the library of the royal academy to collect some documents related to the law, and based on his experience in presiding over the lord's court, he half transcribed and half compiled a provisional copy of the Ismorola Law. This work is more time-consuming, so Eshu stayed in Poimbru for a little longer, and Brochette, who heard the news, immediately came to the door with a clear purpose, that is, to help the Black Spear Knights, who were almost unable to open the pot because of the bounty, to stop the loss. He first forced Eishu to pay for the borrowing of the literature at a very unreasonable price, and before that, Eixiu had never heard that he had to pay for borrowing books from the Royal Academy. But Esher gave in. The reason is simple: the Black Spear Knights—or the Royal Academy—have a monopoly on raven domestication in Livingston, and scholars breed ravens far better than messengers on fast horses, and the ravens must be the first to move before a battle takes place. And if a new lord doesn't want to be blind and deaf in the north, it's better not to offend the royal academy. Brochette then opened his mouth on the raven's asking price, and in one breath made Esher spit out nearly a third of the bounty he had already received, which could be regarded as helping the Black Spear Knights to return some blood. However, when Captain Giegwood heard about it, he was a little reluctant, and privately approached Esher and promised to let the Death Angel Team do something. There is no reason why the free mercenaries sent to the door should not be needed - if so, the safety of those who go out to buy artisans and return to the territory will be solved.

Esher returned to Ismolola with the militia, money, and the Vinaya, and then began to prepare for the Gatu steppe, he wanted to bring more men, but Hephasto refused: "You can slip, but don't slip with the labor, if you dare to take a person with you, you will strike." Of course, Esher couldn't outdo the master craftsman, so when he crossed the Frost Bridge, he had only a horse, an axe, and a large string of reins to pull the horses.
