After passing through two streets, entering the central square of Shining Gold, follow the northbound avenue to the end, which is the mansion of the lord of Shining Gold.

However, there is also a checkpoint halfway down the road.......

Yun Lang and his party, before they approached the Lord's Mansion, they were blocked by the guards of the Lord's Mansion stationed at the sentry post.

Vivien stepped forward to negotiate with the lord's token, and after the captain of the guard of the lord's mansion confirmed that it was correct, he immediately let him go, and stepped forward to meet the new lord Yunlang.

"Honorable Lord, I am Egbert Lim, the captain of the guard of the City Lord's Mansion, and I am willing to serve you!" After the captain of the guard bowed respectfully, he took the initiative to introduce himself and seek an opportunity to serve allegiance.

Yun Lang, who was still sitting on his mount, looked down at Egbert.

His hair was gray, he had a beautiful, well-groomed beard, he wore tawny carved leather armor, and he carried no weapons. He was a little bloated and fat, sluggish, and seemed unable to fight..... Moreover, his strength is only one order.

Yun Lang nodded and asked, "Since when did you start serving as the captain of the Lord's Mansion?"

"My lord, sixteen years ago, I was the captain of the guard of the Lord's Mansion. ”

"Oh, so long....... It seems that your ability is good, and you have been favored by the previous lord!" Yun Lang tried to speculate.

"Lord Hui, I was originally a member of the garrison of Shining Gold Town, and I participated in the extermination of two bandits and a monster lair, so I was appreciated by Lord Harold and recommended me to be the captain of the guard of the City Lord's Mansion, and was approved by the previous lord. He replied rather smugly.

Yunlang smiled and suddenly shouted, "Mike, come here." ”

Mike hurriedly dismounted, trotted all the way to Yunlang's side, and waited for orders after giving a salute.

"Mike, you first study carefully with Captain Egbert, and familiarize yourself with the specific affairs of the Guardian Lord's Mansion as soon as possible, and then serve as the deputy captain of the Lord's Mansion Escort Team first!" Yun Lang ordered directly.

"Obey! I will not fail your trust!" Mike replied with some emotion.

When Egbert heard about this appointment, he suddenly became a little anxious, and blurted out: "My lord, my lord....... Now that the Lord's Mansion Guard is fully staffed, and there are already two vice-captains, isn't it a bit inappropriate to add one more......."

Vivian couldn't see others confronting Yun Lang the most, and just wanted to get angry, but was stopped by Yun Lang waving his hand first.

Yun Lang stared at Egbert with a smile and asked, "Heh, are you the lord of Shining Gold Town?"

"It's ....... This ......." Egbert couldn't answer, cold sweat flowed, his face was greasy, and he said, "This is what Lord Baron meant...... The Lord's Mansion is located in the center of Shining Gold Town, and it has always been safe, so there is no need to keep so many guards......."

"yes!" Yun Lang actually agreed, and before Egbert could breathe a sigh of relief, he asked again: "How many guards are there in the current City Lord's Mansion?"

"There were ten squads in total, and together with miscellaneous servants, a total of one hundred and twenty people. ”

"It's still too much....... Yun Lang deliberately muttered for a while before he arrived: "I order, including the miscellaneous servants, that all the existing City Lord's Mansion guards be handed over to the garrison of Shining Gold Town, and they will be executed immediately!"

"Your lordship, you ...... What are you going to do here? If there are no guards here, who will protect you......." Egbert was shocked and angry, and a fierce look appeared on his fat face.

"You're more worried about my safety than I am, I really thank you!" Hmph......." Yun Lang smiled coldly, patted his horse forward, and said: "Mike, since he doesn't want you to be the vice captain, you should be the captain honestly, since he doesn't want to teach you, you can figure it out yourself!

"You....... You, you are so reckless, the Baron will not sit idly by....... You'll regret it!" Egbert finally took off his disguise and threatened viciously after seeing that there was no room for maneuver.

Yun Lang didn't want to deal with him at all, and walked straight to the lord's gate.

After Mansha understood, she also ordered: "The first squad, the fifth squad, and the seventh squad, temporarily under the unified command of the first squad leader Hunter, assist Mike, the captain of the guard of the Lord's Mansion, and protect the Lord's Mansion together." ”

Hunter and Mike, looking at each other, hurriedly received their orders.

Then, the three squads, along with Mike's two squads, quickly converged to one place, closely monitoring the movements of the original lord's palace guards, and quickly taking over their sentry.

Egbert gritted his teeth, his face contorted...... But he had no choice but to order all the staff to withdraw from the lord's mansion.

。

Coming to the gate of the Lord's Mansion, Yunlang jumped off his mount and stopped to watch.

The dark gate, baptized by the years, has long been mottled, ravines and dilapidated. The high walls built of white stones on both sides have been covered with a thick layer of mud, and the original carved lines are no longer recognizable.

Here, it is more like a long-abandoned mansion, and it is hard to think that it is the lord's mansion of Shining Gold Town.

The two sentries in front of the door, listless, yawned incessantly, and only when Yunlang led the crowd to the front did they straighten up slightly. But already carelessly......

Yun Lang retracted his divergent thoughts, took a deep breath, and walked straight to the door.

Before the two sentries could stop them, they were pushed aside by the four warriors who rushed out, and they took their place.

"Master, please allow Vivien to enter the Lord's Mansion first, and when you are ready, we will officially welcome you into the Lord's Mansion!" Vivien jumped off her horse and stepped forward to suggest.

Yun Lang smiled bitterly and shook his head: "Don't worry about face for the time being....... There will be a chance to get it back in the future! Wait a while, let Jian and the others familiarize themselves with the situation here, and stabilize it as soon as possible. ”

After Vivian responded, she immediately called the three senior maids and explained them seriously.

"From today onwards, Jane is in charge of the master's daily life, Jenny is in charge of the maintenance of the lord's mansion, and Tracy is in charge of external procurement, you all have to cheer up and do your best, but don't let the master disappoint you! Otherwise, I will kick you out myself!"

The three senior maids responded with the most standard of etiquette.

Yunlang arrived in front of the gate, pushed the door in person, and saw that the overgrown courtyard was a mess.

Vivian, who was following behind Yun Lang, saw this scene, her face turned blue with anger, and she said angrily: "How long has it be......en? Aren't there any maids and valets here?"

When Yun Lang heard this, he smiled and persuaded: "Hehe, if it's gone, I'll have no worries! You, don't worry, spend some money later, recruit some people temporarily, and clean it up." ”

While the two were talking, Mansa had already commanded the warriors, poured into the lord's mansion, quickly occupied various key nodes, and carefully counted all suspicious targets.

After a while, more than a dozen elderly male and female servants were brought to Yunlang.

Yun Lang was curious, so he tried to ask: "The huge City Lord's Mansion, is it just you people?"

There was a middle-aged maid with a very decent demeanor, who replied to Yun Lang without humility or arrogance: "Lord Hui, after the death of the previous lord, the guards, maids, and male servants who directly belonged to him guarded his body, and left the City Lord's Mansion together and returned to his family. Originally, there were still many maids and male servants left, and they were still able to maintain the operation of the city lord's mansion, but after losing the support of money, many people could not bear it and were forced to leave. If the adults allow it, they are willing to treat them according to their original treatment, and perhaps they can still be recalled. ”

"Hehe, what makes me even more curious is, why didn't you leave?" Yun Lang asked rhetorically.

"My lord, I have no home, nowhere to go, and I'm in my forties, so I can't be recruited again, so I can only stay here, or at least barely survive. She replied calmly, as if it was none of her business.

"Oh, in that case, you should also consider that this lord's mansion will eventually be inhabited by a new lord. At that point, if you don't get recruited, you'll probably still be kicked out of here. Yun Lang carefully watched her reaction.

"At least a few more days!" she replied.
