Chapter 23 Internal Affairs (2) - Asking for Recommendation Votes

Two weeks have passed in the blink of an eye, and as the weather slowly turns cold, the inhabitants of Finney have become accustomed to life after changing to a lord;

As the drunken old man on the side of the street said:

"Even if you change a lord, aren't you still a member of the Finney family?

Everyone immediately felt that what the old man said was very reasonable;

And when the venerable Sir Seta Finney heard this from a certain source, he only smiled and said nothing;

And the day after that, the old man received a reward from the Lord's Mansion:

"You can get a big beer from the tavern for free every day until you die!"

When the old man heard the news, he shouted happily:

"Long live my lord!

The townspeople are also very happy, because they feel that this proves that their lord is a kind and generous person, then he must be a good lord!

Look, the old man got his reward!

in the castle;

Seta was listening to Highbury's debriefing;

Highbury's position is that of the castle's steward, but his job is not only to take care of the castle's housekeeping, it is a waste of his ability, so the esteemed Sir Finney has given him a more important task - intelligence gathering!

Highbury was wearing a black tuxedo, with one hand behind his back, revealing a stereotyped, ceremonial feeling all over his body, and even his tone was flat and straightforward:

"Your Excellency, according to the information received so far, the people of the town are very fond of you"

"They support your rule"

"Congratulations, Your Excellency"

"You were born to be the ruler here!"

The corners of Seta's mouth curled and quickly dissipated, and he waved his hand and said:

"We will also continue to strengthen the monitoring of the territory"

"How many secret spies are there now, and where can they be monitored?"

Highbury thought slightly, bowed down and said:

"Since only two weeks have passed, only Feeney Town is currently under surveillance, and as for the secret spy, there are only five people at the moment."

"But I'm stepping up to recruit new spies"

"Wait a little longer, and by this winter we will be able to monitor the entire territory"

Seta nodded with a soft 'um' and instructed:

"I'll give you another 10 gold, despite setting up a spy system that covers the entire territory"

"I want to know what my people are thinking, discussing, and doing every day!"

"I want to know what they care about, you know, Highbury?"

"Yes, Your Excellency!" replied Highbury at once.

"Highbury understands that it won't let you down!"

Seta nodded, and after a pause, continued:

"In addition, immediately send a secret spy to the White Territory, pay close attention to their movements and report at any time, this matter is the first priority"

"Yes, Your Excellency"

With a soft hum, Seta stood up, straightened his clothes, and walked out the door:

"Get out, Alice should be there soon"

"Yes, Your Excellency!"

At the gate of the castle, the knight Subi and the interior minister George Luther were already waiting there, and they were obviously wearing new dresses, after all, it was the first time they saw the lord's wife, and everyone did not want to be rude;

At this time, I saw Seta coming over and hurriedly stepped forward to salute:

"Good afternoon, Sir!"

Seta nodded slightly:

"Good afternoon, boys" looked at Subi:

"Subi, has Hans sent someone to tell us when it will arrive?"

"An hour ago, a guard reported that it was almost there" Subi turned to look at the end of the road:

"At this time, it should be soon. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info。。 ”

Before he could finish his sentence, he saw five cavalrymen in the distance protecting a black four-wheeled carriage appear:

"It's coming!"

Soon, the carriage was in sight;

"Squeak~ah!"

Hans Duck rolled over and dismounted, trotted a few steps and half-knelt:

"Sir, Madame has arrived safely!"

Seta had a smile on his face, and several of his subordinates stood behind him to set off his imposing momentum, and he smiled as he picked up the young knight squire and patted him on the shoulder:

"Good work, Hans"

Then he turned and walked briskly to the carriage, and opened the black door with the golden family coat of arms with his own hands, and a delicate little face appeared:

"Seta!"

"Hahaha~" Seta caught his wife who rushed over, grabbed her thin waist and whispered:

"Alice, I miss you!"

Madame Jazz's eyes suddenly turned red, and she put her little head in her husband's arms, and her voice was small and weeping:

"Then why didn't you come and pick me up earlier?" suddenly raised his head:

"Have you forgotten me?"

Looking at his wife with red eyes, Seta felt his head grow for a while, and could only say softly:

"How so? I think about you every day."

"It's just that it wasn't safe some time ago, but now it's all right, and we won't be separated in the future," he said, turning his head and commanding:

"Highbury, call for a banquet"

"Yes, Your Excellency," Highbury hurried away;

At this time, Alice Feeney looked up at the departing castle steward and asked:

"Seta, that man's name is Highbury, villa guard?"

Seta rubbed his wife's head and shook her head:

"No, he's the castle's steward now"

Alice nodded silently, without asking any more questions, she felt that everything seemed to be different, maybe only Finney's name had not changed, right?

sighed slightly in my heart:

"Isn't that what I expected, though?"

With a smile on her face again, she followed her husband and some of his men towards the castle;

Back on the first floor of the castle, Seta turned her head and asked softly:

"Alice, do you want to rest first, or eat first?"

"I want to sleep for a while" Alice looked at her husband pitifully and took his hand:

"Will you go up with me too?"

Although there were still many things to arrange, there was no need to rush this moment, so he waved to a few subordinates and asked them to go down, and Seta looked at his wife with a smile:

"Of course, I'd love to;

Bending down to pick up Alice, ignoring her shyness and noise, he walked upstairs to the bedroom...

。。。 Spring fills the dividing line...

Since the change of the new lord, the castle has often had banquets, and the reputation of the new lord for generosity has spread;

Today's banquet is a dinner to celebrate the arrival of Madame Jazz!

in a small cottage in a corner of Feeney's town;

Mr. Eugene, the 'honorable' business consultant, was preparing the gown for the dinner, and he instructed the servants of the house:

"Bring that green hat, it seems to be more fitting for this dress"

Humming a cheerful tune, he took the green soft hat handed by the servant and gently stuck it on his head, and Mr. Eugene looked at the figure in the mirror with a satisfied expression:

"Hmm~"

"Not bad!"

At noon, when he had just received an invitation from Mr. Highbury, the castle steward, Mr. Eugene was discussing the price of the goods with the merchants from the next town:

"That guy doesn't want to accept my price yet!"

"Humph!"

It turned out that the merchant in the next town did not agree with Mr. Eugene's price plan, and he said that he would have no profit at all!

But Mr. Eugene is not willing to give in, after all, human desires are always endless!

It seems that the transaction between the two of them can no longer be carried out, but at this time, an invitation from the Lord's Mansion has arrived!

When he saw the invitation and learned that the guy he was bargaining with was already the lord's business advisor, the merchant in the next town flinched:

He accepted Mr. Eugene's bargain!

"Hahaha~" Mr. Eugene laughed, and at the same time cherished his identity even more:

"It's just a pity that this identity can't be passed on to my children and grandchildren~"
