Yi Luo Ming did not intend to intensify the conflict with the earl, nor did he want to drag it on for too long.

The sword of the princes is cool, but it has also drained the power of his territory, and he must recuperate quickly.

He would rather gain a little less benefit, but also make sure to reach a mutually satisfactory agreement with the Count as soon as possible, and then settle the situation as soon as possible, so that he can rest and recuperate.

And the earl changed his way of thinking, no longer regarded the benefits to be paid this time as a loss, but regarded them as an investment in Luo Ming, a new star, and he could slowly recover the return in the future, and the feeling of distress was much less.

Both sides have such an attitude, and the next negotiation is actually very fast...... After an hour and a half, the deed in quadruplicate had been copied under the watchful eyes of several priests and nobles.

After Luo Ming checked again to confirm that it was correct, he took up the pen and signed his name. Then the earl called his eldest son and eldest grandson and signed the deed together.

They each had a deed in their hands, and another deed was handed over to the royal capital for archiving, and the other was given to the Church of Dawn in Vanshey County for them to help notarize.

What makes people who don't know the truth strange is that after signing this contract, neither Luo Ming nor the earl felt the slightest sense of frustration and anger, and the two of them didn't laugh together, at least they both showed joyful expressions.

In fact, the two themselves know best that this time they can be said to have achieved a win-win situation - ordinary people naturally would not have imagined that the originally tense two sides actually reached a consensus and sincerely began to cooperate.

In the contract, Luo Ming promised that as long as he was alive, he would help the Earl's descendants for a period of eighty years, as his allies - as long as he did not commit the great crime of rebellion or collusion with the cult, he would always remain steadfast, and even provide shelter when the Earl's family was in decline.

Eighty years, many nobles in this era will not live to this age, which is a very heavy number.

In addition, Login also entered into several commercial agreements with Piaget, although Login could use Piaget's channels to expand sales and imports, but correspondingly, Piaget could also earn a share of the middleman's income.

Of course, since Luo Ming has given such good conditions, he will naturally get a corresponding return.

First of all, a consensus was reached that the two sides would not invade each other, and even if some of their subordinates wanted to provoke a conflict, the top brass of both sides would guarantee that they would tacitly suppress the situation.

Secondly, the Count gave Lominte a large portion of the land, food, and people at one time.

Originally, in this monster disaster, not only Luo Ming himself, but the Count also expanded some of his sphere of influence.

Now he will transfer these spheres of influence that have not yet been covered to Luo Ming, and he will not be too distressed, anyway, it is not his original ancestral inheritance.

Moreover, due to the repeated setbacks some time ago, he does not have enough energy to digest these new territories now, so it is better to give it to Luo Ming, at least to be able to exchange some more favorable conditions, instead of being encroached upon by other greedy nobles.

And for the current Luo Ming, this is really a big gift.

The entire 120,000 acres of land, with a population of more than 2,300, and enough food for these people to eat after the autumn harvest...... If you digest and absorb all of this, Luo Ming's power can be increased by half instantly.

Now, if we add up the area that Luo Ming actually occupies and can indirectly control, it will be 400,000 mu—almost one-seventh of the land area of the county.

Considering that he has improved his relationship with the Earl now, the situation is not a small good, but a great one!

After all, the earl's personal territory and vassal territory occupy one-third of the county's area, which is almost half of the county's area when Luo Ming is combined, and it is completely capable of crushing any scattered nobles.

In other words, as long as Luo Ming did not provoke the church, and did not treacherously go to war with the earl, then he could go sideways in this county of Van Shey!

It can be said that most of the county's goal has been accomplished. Even if you have the strength to spare, you may be able to stretch out your tentacles to the neighboring counties a little.

Bidding farewell to his comrades-in-arms at the banquet, Luo Ming took the loot and remuneration and embarked on the road back to his hometown with the soldiers who sang the war song in unison.

============================================

Before Luo Ming could set out, his will was already carried by the ink on a sackcloth, and a messenger quickly whipped him back to the territory in advance.

"Build a ...... as soon as possible Small Invalides?"

Da Kang looked at the short words and the hastily drawn figure on the linen cloth thoughtfully.

Although the style is relatively novel, in his eyes, such a building is not too difficult - it is just a small two-storey building, separated by small compartments, which can accommodate a hundred people together.

Since Luo Ming deliberately asked for simplicity and use first, he didn't require how high the defense power was for the time being (after all, no one could threaten his hinterland), and decorations and everything could be placed in the back, which could shorten the construction period.

Even the walls on the first floor can be made of earthen walls, which can be dug in a day by mobilizing the people, plus a little wood and masonry reinforcement.

More than these, Dakang cares more about the meaning of the building itself.

Honored disabled soldiers and commemorated loyal and brave martyrs...... This is a clear signal:

Even if the biggest monster in the county is defeated, it can basically be declared that peace has been restored, and there is no opponent in the county, but Luo Ming will still attach importance and respect to the soldiers as always, and this will not change.

Dakang subconsciously tapped his fingers on the wooden board on the tabletop, making a clicking sound.

Perhaps the king knows some inside information, and the peace of Van Shee County will not be long before he will be drawn into war again, or maybe the king has a more ambitious goal and is ready to send troops again in the near future.

All in all, as the manager, his task is to help the king solve problems. As for advice or something, you can wait for the king to come back and talk slowly while working.

Da Kang immediately called the soldiers who stayed behind, passed on the order to requisition the people, and then immediately began to calculate the detailed figures of expenditure and attrition.

Although he basically memorized all these important data in his head, it was better to write down the critical moments.

With the help of the bookkeeping form that Jun Shang drew at the beginning, the amount of expenditure can be accurately calculated to each copper coin if he wants, and the speed of accounting is more than twice as fast as the traditional method.

As a result, there is an audit and inventory of accounts every quarter. Although Dakang is not a corrupt official and is not afraid of being accused, he does not want to be found loopholes in the audit and cause trouble for himself.
