Victor's estate is located in a valley on the banks of the Black River. After several expansions, the estate covered an area of 3,400 acres and was built with a lord's mansion, fifteen guest villas, four barracks, two warehouses, as well as stables, pastures and gardens. The estate encompasses a nearby hill with a 700-acre woodland at its foot and three waterholes dug along the mountain stream. Now, the estate is named Silvermoon Manor by Victor.

The manor of the human world is the private property of the manor owner, which contains arable land, public land, the manor owner's mansion, and the farmer's house. The lord of the manor was neither a nobleman nor a vassal, while a farmer was a freedman. However, these freedmen hired peasants were different from the displaced people who had no status, and most of them were the children of small vassals or vassal families, and their ability, status, income, and future were not comparable to those of the exiles. As a result, the farmer was far more loyal and reliable than the nomadic farmer.

A typical manor house has a main building, surrounded by farmland, pastures, and woodlands. In addition to organizing farming and animal husbandry, the owner of the manor also set up many production facilities on the estate, such as a mill, wine cellar, weaving workshop, blacksmith shop and carpentry workshop. For the most part, the estates were self-sufficient, producing flour, clothing, cheese, wine and tools, which were an important source of income for the owners. And the knight's manor also had to produce armaments for the lord, train soldiers, and raise war horses. The manor is an economic unit of a military nature. Even the resort houses of the aristocracy are basically the same in terms of layout.

Silvermoon Manor is different from the traditional aristocratic manor, it is a pure leisure manor.

Victor's armament production is firmly controlled in hill camps and secret fortresses, and he does not care about civilian technology, and Randall's village takes on the task of producing civilian materials, and functions as a village and an ordinary manor. Victor doesn't need a traditional manor, plus the land is large, there are many people, there are many bricks, and he is capricious, and Silvermoon Manor was built into a private park by him.

Silvermoon Manor is a beautiful landscape of hills and meadows. Entering the gate, a boulevard guarded by tall hemlock arches leads straight to the quiet woodland. On the left side of the road is a clear mountain stream, dotted with three artificially dug pools, the water is dark green, and the slightest ripple is set off by a breeze, and the beautiful hills reflected in the water are also rippling with the wind. More than a dozen exquisite villas stood on the right hand side of the boulevard, and they were somewhat small compared to the vast, deep momentum of the entire estate, but the lord's mansion was majestic.

The Lord's Mansion is the main building of Silver Moon Manor, covering an area of more than 60 acres, 22 meters high, with a total of 5 floors, 110 rooms, 4 wine cellars and 8 storage rooms. The main building has the style of Gothic architecture, with a large number of spires, which are tall and thin yet heavy, reflecting the mastery of the craftsmen. The exterior walls of the mansion are painted with white fine mortar, and the white walls and black tiles are shaded by two towering iron oak trees, and the whole building is as gorgeous and magnificent as a palace.

Victor took a lot of effort to build this lord's mansion. He put forward the requirements of the architectural style, and the alchemical auxiliaries who were proficient in architecture quickly completed the design drawings. Victor carefully studied the design plan and made up for this knowledge, so he hired Anthony's apprentice. Despite Victor's repeated promptings, the apprentice was unable to complete the design until Anthony returned, and he led the apprentice to complete the design in five days.

Three months later, when the building was completed, Anthony came to see it, only to be amazed by the magnificence of the building. Anthony is ecstatic to thank Victor, who he believes is the artistic talent of Victor's elves, who has helped him accomplish a pioneering feat in the history of architecture.

Of course, Victor will not break it, he spent a lot of manpower and material resources, and the construction of Silver Moon Manor is not just for enjoyment, this manor itself is a kind of propaganda. As a scholar of the White Tower, Anthony has a place in the academic world, and his pioneering work will spread among the human aristocracy through the White Tower, and the construction of resort estates, once formed, will promote the development of the entire brick industry.

It was early afternoon, the sun was warm and soft, and Victor and Madame Judy walked through the manor. Not far away, Lilia was whispering to Sister Alina.

Due to Silvia's resolute attitude, Victor had to sign the marriage certificate. After getting the marriage certificate, Sylvia left Randall Territory on the same day, while Alina and Alice stayed at Silvermoon Manor.

The arrival of the two sisters caused a lot of inconvenience to Victor, and he had to readjust the proportion of alchemy humans in Randall's population. More than 100 alchemy militia returned to the mountains to engage in the mining of silver mines, and Victor's personal guard was also reduced by half, from the original 90 alchemy militia to 30 alchemy militia and 30 ordinary guards, the one-eyed dragon is now the captain of the personal guard, and Renault and Shak are the deputy captains.

Alina and Alice have burgundy hair, snow skin, delicate faces, and a docile temperament, which makes Victor enjoy the beauty and curiosity at the same time.

Generally speaking, even if a female trainee knight can't become a knight, she can marry a little lord as a wife, although the personal maid is also a legal partner, and the children also have the right to inherit, but after all, they are inferior, like the two sisters, and at the same time give a viscount a personal maid, which is very unreasonable. Moreover, the sisters have neither retinues nor relatives by their side, and only the two of them join the Randall family, and bring Victor a debt of 20,000 gold soles.

When Sylvia stretched out her hand to ask for money, Victor jumped up, when will the female apprentice knight talk about selling and returning 10,000 gold soles, will it be okay to come to a dozen? Sylvia did not explain, sneered and said: Dream!

Victor later learns that the Alinates' father was not a pure-blood nobleman, and that he had two sisters with his squire when he was in his seventies. As a result, Alina and Alice's bloodlines and identities are very low, and after their father's death, their situation is even more difficult. The York family saw that the sisters were beautiful and twins, so they took them over to raise and educate. However, the noble blood of the sisters is indeed thin, and they still failed to comprehend the fighting spirit at the age of eighteen. As a result, the York family spent twenty refining potions to stimulate the bloodline, activating the knightly bloodlines of the two, with the purpose of using the sisters to marry other nobles, and the debt of 20,000 gold soles was the cost of the refining potion. Now that the sisters have cheapened Victor, Sylvia is of course going to reach out to him for a debt.

Although the Alina sisters are trainee knights, because of the use of refining potions, there is no possibility of being promoted to knights, as a marriage tool cultivated by the York family, their combat effectiveness is very average, and their temperament is also weak, but they are quite proficient in music, etiquette, and housekeeping.

Victor doesn't care about the blood and combat power of the Alina sisters, but he won't raise these two flowery female trainee knights as canaries, what he lacks is talent.

The time for Victor's rise was too short, and the available manpower was also small, and in three years, he only trained a few village chiefs and the War Bear family. In addition, more and more people are joining Randall's territory, and the influence of the Nelson family is also increasing, Victor does not doubt Nelson's loyalty, but checks and balances are still necessary, and the Alina sisters are the Randall family that can absorb fresh blood.

The Alina sisters have a background in the York family, and Victor will not let them touch the core affairs, he intends to let Alina manage the Silvermoon Manor, train qualified family attendants, and educate the children of the members of the labor system, Alice is in charge of the brick and jaggery trade, and Lilia is still in control.

In order to elevate the sisters' status in Randall's Domain, and to show the Yorks, Victor held a special welcome banquet for them, and invited Father Miller, the middle of Rand's Domain, Nicole, and Lady Judy to attend.

At the banquet, Lilia and the sisters are quite close, at least on the surface, but Nicole is unhappy, and the other three women dare not compete with her, Nicole becomes the protagonist of the banquet instead. This is also the norm for aristocratic banquets, who made Nicole a knight noble.

Among Victor's women, Nicole is the only one who can be jealous, and even dares to be jealous in front of Sylvia, but Sylvia doesn't think so. Victor was also puzzled by this, but fortunately he always had a way to appease Nicole, and Nicole also had a lot of things to deal with, she and Victor coexisted for a few days, and still reluctantly left Silvermoon Manor.

Women's affairs are just minor troubles, and it is difficult to predict what kind of changes Sister Alina will bring to Randall's collar. In any case, it took Victor three years to complete the gorgeous transformation from a turtle to a local tyrant. Now that the mansion is in hand and the beauty is on the side, Victor said to Judy in high spirits: "Lady Judy, what do you think of Silvermoon Manor?"

A soft smile appeared on Judy's porcelain-like face, and her red lips opened lightly, and she said, "Silvermoon Manor is the most beautiful manor I have ever had. ”

Victor's eyes flashed, and he said politely: "Then I will send someone to build a manor for my wife in Buryatia, what do you think?"

"Huh?!Okay...... All right. ”

Viktor built a manor in the Buryatia territory, not only to promote the bricks, but also to show his relationship with the Buryat family, as well as his influence. However, there was another interpretation of this in Judy's ears.

Half a month ago, Judy's parents, Baroness Matthew, visited Silvermoon Manor, and the Baron and Victor discussed many details of the cooperation, and the Baroness met with Judy.

Judy learns from her mother that they have taken control of Wildwillow, the old butler has returned to Wildwillow Castle, the remnants of Austin have defected, and Austin's family has been taken by the Solim family, and the Buryat Territory has returned to Judy's hands. This time, the Baroness will take Primo, the heir of the family, to stabilize the heart, while Judy will remain in Randall's territory until the dust settles.

Judy had no problem with such an arrangement, but the Baroness asked her again to turn the rumors into facts.

Judy was a little embarrassed by her mother's suggestion, although it was common for nobles to find one or two lovers, it also depended on the status of both partners. How revered is Silvia's status, and how dare Victor steal behind her back? The Baroness said that it was up to him to decide whether Victor dared to accept it, but Judy had to take the initiative to show her heart, and it was a matter of position!

Victor is young and handsome, with noble blood, he is the most ideal lover candidate, Judy has been educated as a noble girl since she was a child, and she is not resistant to such things, but there are more women around Victor. Silvia doesn't need to mention, Finicos is not only a knight, but also a baron of the fiefdom, although Lilia has no noble blood, she is the most favored one, and the Alina sisters are originally beautiful and moving, and they are even more delicate after the first rain and dew, Judy feels that she can't compare to any of them, let alone the two of them. Victor was too busy, Judy didn't know where to start, and the barons took Primo back to Wild Willow City, but Judy still didn't make any progress.

Now, Victor suddenly offered to build a manor for himself, is this a hint? Judy's heart pounded, and two red clouds rose on her fair cheeks, adding three more bright colors.

Victor didn't expect his proposal to cause such a misunderstanding, and his attention was not on Judy, who was walking towards him.

"My lord, the messenger of the House of York has just sent a letter. ”

Victor took the letterhead from Gru's hand, read it, and said to Judy: "Madam, I have something to deal with, and I am out of company. With that, he turned and walked towards the mansion.

Seeing Victor's tall back disappear behind the door, Judy gritted her teeth and chased after her skirt.

Victor sat in his study, his fingers tapping lightly on his desk, and there was a slight sound of footsteps outside the door, and he knew from the sound alone that it was Judy.

The footsteps stopped in front of the door for a few moments, and then there was a knock on the door, and Victor opened the door and welcomed Judy in.

At this time, Judy had already changed out of her ferret fur jacket, wearing only a low-cut thin silk dress, golden hair sprinkled on snow-white shoulders, high breasts, slender waist, and a picturesque face full of redness. She lowered her head, stared at her delicate toes, and whispered, "Victor, I ......"

Victor smiled slightly, and he knew what Madame Judy was coming for.

The relationship between men and women of the aristocracy seems to be erosive, but in fact, it has its own rules, and it is far from the random debauchery that comes with a shake. In general, the heirs are far more important than the first, the weak are dependent on the strong, and the low bloodline pursues the high bloodline. Whether it is a husband and wife, a personal maid, or a lover, they all belong to the category of partners, and the relationship between partners is quite stable. The stronger party will have more than one partner, while the weaker partner will rarely cheat, they cannot afford the consequences of betrayal, and they are more eager to have their partner's offspring. Only Sylvia is a special case, but if Victor can give birth to an heir, she will inevitably try to monopolize Victor, and Victor will have a hard time resisting Silvia's charm. However, when that time really comes, the relationship between Victor and Sylvia will be reversed again.

As far as Judy is concerned, she needs to establish a stable primary and secondary relationship with Victor, and becoming Victor's lover is her only option. If Victor rejects Judy, she will have to choose a strong person to attach to again, because she is only a trainee knight, and the Buryatia family has been crippled by Victor.

Victor can not care about Judy's beauty, but he can't tolerate the rebirth of the Buryat Territory. Everyone knew this, and if Victor was unwilling to form a partnership with Judy, Sylvia would choose one of the family's Grand Knight to take on the matter, which was the least influential political marriage.

Victor is not a saint, let alone hypocritical, he held up Judy's delicate chin, stared at those beautiful eyes, and said lightly: "Baby, we have time, but not now." ”

Although Judy decided to show her heart, when she saw Victor, she was still embarrassed and forgot all about the methods taught by the baroness. Hearing this, Judy's whole body relaxed, and the noble elegance returned to her again.

Victor returned to his seat, raised the parchment letterhead in his hand, and said, "His Royal Highness Prince Edward has inspected the Centaur Hills and has entered the Black Castle, and His Highness has brought the documents of the Senate, and the Senate has asked us to go to the royal capital to explain the murder of Austin. ”

Judy's face turned a little pale, and Victor smiled and comforted: "Don't worry, this is all expected, you go and clean up now, we will set off tonight, go to Black Castle Town first, and after meeting His Highness, we will go to the royal capital." ”

"Yes, I'll go and prepare. Judy curtsied, then left the study.

Victor shook his head, Judy's blood is not bad, and she is self-motivated, but she was taught by her mother to be a weak-willed noblewoman, although she became the lord's wife, but after all, she still went the wrong way.

Putting away his inexplicable thoughts, Victor went out to find an attendant and told him to call Lilia.

After a while, Lilia came to the study and sat directly in Victor's arms.

Victor hugged Lilia and said softly, "I've wronged you." ”

Lilia shook her head slightly, but her red little mouth pursed, and Victor smiled: "This is also a helpless thing, our territory is in the Centaur Hills, we must be consistent with the York family, and we must let everyone know this." But I promise, none of them are as important as you. ”

"Hmm!" Lilia nodded vigorously, and Victor said, "I'm going to the royal capital soon, and you're going to stay and watch the house, so I can only take Sister Alina with me." After the matter of the royal capital is over, I will go to the dark forest. Don't ask why?" Victor put his finger on Lilia's red lips and continued, "When I come back, it's almost five months away. For such a long time, the affairs of the family are all up to you. ”

Lilia twisted her body and asked worriedly, "Victor, is this dangerous?"

"Nelson can't go, he has to recuperate from his injuries externally, he can calm the situation internally, and Linda is pregnant, so he can't be allowed to go. Victor shook his head and said, "There are a few things I want to explain to you. ”

"Now, many women from freeman families are pregnant, which is a good thing, it helps the stability of the territory, and you should pay attention to protecting pregnant women when you arrange your work. It is better to arrange for some women to go to Father Miller and learn some medical knowledge, after all, Father Miller has more than 20,000 people in charge, and he is not busy alone. ”

"The cultivation is basically over, and some people are involved in the construction of the stream reservoir. After the water season is over, you can start building the castle in Bayoutown. When I come back, I'd like to see five streams, reservoirs, and a castle, can I do that?"

Lilia raised her voice and said, "Of course it can be done. ”

Victor hesitated for a moment and said, "If you have a difficult problem to solve, you can ask Nicole for help, but the core matter still has to be hidden from her。。。。。 ”

Lilia hadn't forgotten that Nicole's reaction when she heard Victor in distress opened her mouth, but finally nodded silently.

Victor sighed and said, "Go and call Jack for me." ”

Shortly after Lilia leaves, Jack arrives in front of Victor.

Jack is the first spirit monkey militia under Victor's command, not only has he trained the spirit monkey secret form to a high level, but also cultivated a simplified version of the barberry secret form, coupled with the explosion secret technique, his strength is second only to Renault in the alchemy militia. After three years of training, Jack and Renault's emotional intelligence has been greatly improved, although it can't be compared with ordinary people, at least there is no obvious abnormality, just like a simple wooden farmer.

There are 17 alchemical militias like Jack and Renault, and Victor calls them Elite Guards.

"Jack, I've been summoned that a suspicious target has been found in the Dark Forest. In the next few months, I will be leaving Randall, and before I leave, I have a task for you. ”

"You go to the mountain fortress, select 50 alchemy militia, 20 war mastiffs, 80 alchemy crows, and then go to the swamp to carry out reconnaissance missions to see if there is any trace of Ant-Man, draw maps, survey resources, and pay attention to abnormal situations. ”

Jack asked, "My lord, what is the level of the mission?"

"There is no rank! I want you to make a decision on the fly while preserving yourself!"

"Understood, sir. ”

As Jack hurried to the mountain fortress, Father Miller walked out of the chapel, stared to the west, and muttered, "I finally think of the Everglades." ”

"What are you talking about, Father?" asked a church attendant curiously.

Fr. Miller laughed and said, "I said, what should happen will happen, what should be met will be met!"

As soon as the words fell, the old priest's body immediately fell to the ground, the wrinkles on his face were much deeper, and the whole person seemed to have aged ten years in an instant.
