In the elegant and majestic throne hall, an old man wearing a golden crown was looking at a map of the continent of Lordaeron with fascination. His countenance was old and loving, and his eyes were majestic and wise. He is the master of the kingdom of Lordaeron and the supreme leader of mankind, Terenus Minahir.

"My child." Terenus shifted his gaze to the blonde boy next to him, "I heard you sent someone to the Jasper Collar?" ”

"Yes, father." Arthas lowered his head and whispered, he waited for a while, found that his father did not speak, raised his head and asked suspiciously, "Are you not angry?" ”

"Confused?" Seeing Arthas nodding, Terenus pointed to the map and said, "What is this?" ”

"Lordaeron, this is our kingdom." Alsace said.

"Yes, this is our kingdom. I have told you before that it is not only about force but also about wisdom and kindness to govern a country and a people. Terenus looked Arthas in the eye solemnly, "And I will tell you the second point now, that the objects of our mercy are those who support us. As for the enemy and those careerists who seek to divide the territories that belong to us, force is enough. ”

Arthas nodded as if he didn't understand, "Then Father means I can continue to associate with Gianna?" ”

The old king smiled and nodded, and said, "Of course, who is qualified to be the future queen except her." ”

"But, however, Gianna has refused my invitation, and I have heard that she is going to Jasper Collar, can I find someone...... "Arthas asked hesitantly.

Terenus stopped him from continuing, "Look, didn't you send someone to trouble him?" If the person does not come back, then the matter will be put aside. If those people come back. I heard that pirates have been rampant recently, and who knows if they will visit Jasper Collar again. ”

Looking at Arthas's fading back, Terenus muttered to himself, "I didn't expect to be taught by Uther, a stubborn defender, to use these methods for so many years, even if it is for a woman, the methods are also very immature."

"Jasper Collar, Brad, just keep it for now, even if there are any waves, it will be under control, and it's not bad to be my child's whetstone."

Unbeknownst to him, Brad, who had been used as a whetstone, was sitting at his desk listening to his subordinates' reports.

"Young master, except for the grain shipped out by the old housekeeper, all the rest were recovered and put into the warehouse." Moore paused for a moment before continuing: "When the grain was collected, it was found that the six people who had hidden the grain and the seven who resisted had all been killed. ”

Brad stroked Xiaobai's triangular head, "Yes, Xiaobai came back just now and told me that the spiders are also very satisfied with today's dinner." ”

"The money in arrears has been distributed, and the peasants' grain has been returned." Morgana continued, "The banquet has already begun, isn't the young master really celebrating with them? ”

Brad opened the window, and the sound of laughter came into the office, "Listen, they're happy. In the past, I would only let them be restrained, and they would be restrained when they ate, so how could they be happy. ”

"What the young master said is right, those under my command drank happily one by one, and as soon as I passed, I immediately wilted, it's really boring, don't go." Moore smiled wryly, "However, I saw that the kobold had a fight with the old blacksmith. ”

Little Jasmine pushed open the door, stuck only one head in, and shouted, "Aunt Susan said it's time to eat, uncle, hurry up, little Jasmine is hungry, and she will go to see the bear with Will after eating." ”

Brad Haruha stood up with a smile and said, "Let's go, let's start our banquet too." It's not good to delay Baby Jasmine and Little Will in business. Today, I generously contributed my father's secret golden caviar. ”

"Is it the legendary royal caviar that is more precious than gold?" Caitlin's eyes lit up and she said impatiently, "Go, this is delicious, I only ate a little bit last time, and I almost didn't swallow my tongue." I still have a lot of memories of it."

In the dining room, Brad sat on the main seat, Morgana and Jasmine sat at the bottom, and the others sat casually.

Brad picked up a glass of wine and said, "Come, and wish our territory a new lease of life." ”

Little Jasmine also drank a glass of frothy cider, looked at the table full of dishes, and shouted in surprise: "Wow, beer roasted pork chops, juicy wolf meat, bone fish soup, all of them are my favorite foods." ”

Xiao Wei also drooled when he saw it, "There are so many dishes, it's even more sumptuous than the Winter Curtain Festival." ”

Brad ate a random skewer of kebabs, "Alright, let's go." ”

During a meal, no one had the heart to speak, and everyone was intoxicated by the food.

After eating, Little Jasmine picked up a plate of pork liver pie, and Little Will brought the rest of the pork chops, "Uncle, Will and I went to see Little Bear." ”

Morgana saw little Jasmine going out, took a sip of hot cider, and asked, "Young master, now that the kobold is in charge of mining, how do you arrange the absenteeism?" ”

"Well, I'm going to replenish the guards. In fact, some of them are very good, now that we have Moore fourth-order paladins in our territory, we can also form a knight order, don't forget that our leaders are all fanatical believers in the Holy Light. There is also the training of some talented hunters, which is in charge of Caitlin. The thieves were in charge of Maria. Brad said lazily as he leaned back in his chair.

Moore frowned and thought about it, and said, "Some of the leaders are too old, and I'm afraid it will be difficult to change jobs. ”

"Don't worry about that." Brad tossed a small gingerbread into his swollen mouth and chewed it carefully before continuing: "I'm going to go to Dunhold tomorrow to buy some slaves, then Tarummere to buy a batch of grain, and finally to the town of Southsea to collect some materials. ”

Morgana hesitated and said, "Young Master, what are you going to do, although we have a thousand gold coins, but I'm afraid it will be ...... if we spend it like this."

"Even if it's to prevent those adventurers from counterattacking, there is no need for this." Moore also has a lot of opinions.

"I used slaves to cut down trees, build houses, and build some necessary fortifications. Older lords can be overseers. My strategy was to use slave production and liberate the people. As for why I want to expand and buy a lot of grain? Brad stood up and stretched before saying, "Keep it a secret for now, and you'll understand when the time comes." ”

The rest of the people greeted each other and smiled helplessly, he is the biggest here, and this can only be the case. Only Caitlyn muttered quietly, "So it's a mystery." And then there was no follow-up.

There is a good saying, planning is better than change. There is nothing wrong with this statement, it has been drizzling continuously since midnight, and it has no intention of stopping until the day. With such a muddy road, Brad had to run aground when he went out and planned.

For five days, the rain was sometimes heavy and sometimes light for five days. In the past few days, the villagers of Jasper Collar are happy, and when they have money and food, the family sits by the warm fireplace and chats, or lies on the recliner for a while, which is the most leisurely time for Jasper Collar in half a year.

Moore, Maria, and Caitlyn have not been idle these days, going door to door to ask for wishes, and then testing their talents, which is simply very busy.

There is also a busy man in the territory, our priest, who will teach the village children in the church in the morning to read and write and some mainland knowledge. What followed was the painful afternoon, when nearly 200 little kobolds would receive language education from the priest, who wanted to protest, but could not find anyone from the lord.

It's hard to get to the end of the night, it's time to rest, no, the aunt in the village still has to pray, how can the pastor not preside. Under the pitiful gaze of the villagers, the priest is a reincarnation day after day.

Our pastor is busy.

After the lord went to Nanhai Town, he began to get tired of this lazy life after sitting in the lord's mansion and sleeping for a day. It suddenly occurred to me that I should study engineering if I had nothing to do, but I had a flash of inspiration, and I thought that I had forgotten to make a rune gun for self-defense, and I also lacked a comfortable and convenient means of transportation.

So the lord plunged headlong into the blacksmith's shop...... PS: I'm going to send the contract, so I'm going to update the first chapter in advance. Well, going out in my hometown, it's the rhythm of freezing into a popsicle.
