In a spacious conference room on the third floor.

He was led here by a warm-hearted man, and after the man had left, William waited alone.

This conference room is very large, almost able to accommodate more than 200 people, but there are only a dozen chairs in the entire conference room.

In addition to four large windows, chairs, a few small tables, and some messy documents, there is also a large sand table full of sand piles and flags in the middle of the conference room.

There was no one around, and William surrounded the sand table, curious and watching.

This sand table is so finely made!

On it, William found not only the province of Kuwait, but also the fiefdom of his father, Baron Bazado, the town of Sunset.

With a sigh of admiration from the bottom of his heart, William was full of interest.

He was about to continue watching, but outside the conference room, there was the sound of footsteps, and a person pushed the door in.

This is a young man.

He glanced at William, with a hint of disgust in his eyes, and frowned and said, "You are Viscount William? I am the assistant to the Governor." Your Excellency the Governor is very busy right now, and I will now handle the affairs of your fiefdom with Viscount William. ”

As he spoke, the young man walked straight to the sand table and asked straight to the point, "Viscount William, have you decided which fief you want?"

Regarding the inexplicable hostility revealed by the young man, William said expressionlessly: "No. ”

"Well, I'll recommend a few for Viscount William. ”

The young man picked up a thin wooden stick, pointed to a small mound of earth, and said, "This is a small city in the southeastern part of Chukis Province, the city of Biya. ”

"The city of Bia has a population of about 70,000 and although it is a small town in the province of Chukis, it has a good trade development, the local people live and work in peace and contentment, and they receive a good tax every year. ”

After a short introduction, the young man looked at William.

William shook his head.

The young man didn't talk nonsense, moved his wooden stick, pointed to another small mound nearby, and said: "Stone Statue City, a small and medium-sized city with a population of 100,000, is famous for its abundance of various stone statues, backed by a big mountain, and rich in territorial resources. ”

William shook his head again.

"Speargun City, close to the sea, rich in sea resources..."

Before the young man could finish speaking, William interrupted him impatiently, "Excuse me, why do you always recommend the city of Chukis Province to me? If I remember correctly, Chukis Province is the territory of the Page family, right?"

"Chukis Province is one of the top 10 rich provinces in the Holy Spirit Empire. ”

The young man said lukewarmly, "I'm just doing my job normally. If you have any grievances against my attitude, Viscount William can always report it to the Doge. ”

William laughed angrily.

He was now almost certain that there was probably a Paige family behind this incident.

With suspicion, William deliberately pointed to the sand table and said, "This Sun City, I want it." ”

"I'm sorry, but CitΓ© Soleil has a host. The young man said with a smile.

William frowned and said, "The title of lord of Sun City is not hereditary, plus he died of illness last year, Sun City is now a borderless city!"

"It seems that Viscount William has a detailed knowledge of Sun City. You're missing a point, though. Sun City has not completely recovered it yet, and our people from the Governor's Mansion are already expediting the processing of relevant documents. ”

After a pause, a playful smile appeared on the young man's face: "If Viscount William really wants Sun City, it's not impossible, but I'm afraid I'll have to wait for a while." ”

Wait a while?

How long to wait? Ten days and a half months is waiting, waiting for two or three years is also waiting, this answer is too vague.

In the face of the young man's troubles, William knew well and did not break it, and then chose several other cities one after another.

The young men refused one by one, and could always find all sorts of reasons to prevaricate William.

William showed patience and picked the cities one by one.

The young man grew impatient.

He moved his wooden stick and pointed directly back to the territory of Chukis Province on the sand table: "Viscount William, most of the cities now have masters, don't you think it's troublesome for a layman to choose them? I think the two cities of Bea City and Stone Statue City are very good, why don't you choose one between the two." ”

"How can you choose such a big thing as a fiefdom casually. ”

William shook his head, a glimmer of light suddenly appeared in his eyes, and he said in a flash: "I have decided, no matter what, I want to be here." ”

When the young man heard this, he looked in the direction William was pointing and was stunned.

The fief chosen by William was actually in Haiman Province!

.........

Is Haimanxing Province famous? Very famous!

Six-tenths of the province is uninhabitable;

Three-tenths of the area is high and low mountains. There are all kinds of demonic beasts entrenched in the mountain range, and the beast tide erupts all year round, which is extremely dangerous;

Only the remaining tenth of the area is relatively flat.

Haiman Province, there is no provincial governor's palace.

The population of the entire province is less than 100,000, which is not even comparable to the population size of an ordinary city in other rich provinces.

Haiman Province is full of water, in addition to being worse than the perennial snowy environment of Beigus Province, its geographical location is even more unbearable.

On one side is the border defense line of the Holy Spirit Empire, on the other side is the vast sea, on one side is the Aaronic Mountains inhabited by orcs, and on the other side is the steel mountains leading to the Elven Forest and the dwarven tribes.

There is no doubt that Haiman Province is a rotten land, a real rotten land, a broken land that is extremely rotten.

Nobody wants that place.

Ninety-nine out of a hundred noble lords would not choose their fiefs there, and the remaining one was either an ignorant exploding or a fool.

Is William a fool?

Naturally not.

At the same time, he was very aware of the situation in the province of Haiman. After a night of careful consideration last night, it can be said that Haiman Province is the most ideal fief in his mind.

Seeing that William chose the fief in Haiman Province, the young man's face suddenly became strange.

William looked at him and asked, "This place is not good?" ”

"No, no, no, this place is very unique. As for what is unique, Viscount William will know when the time comes. You'll be pleasantly surprised. ”

The young man didn't give William Science a look at the situation in Haiman Province, and said with a pretended calm face: "I'll go and go through the relevant procedures for Viscount William." ”

William nodded.

The young man departed quickly.

He moved quickly, as if he was afraid that William would regret it, and it only took less than ten minutes to walk back with a pile of thick papers.

Subsequently, William signed the relevant documents, and the young man also took out the exclusive seal of the Governor's Palace, and stamped the large seals one by one, "Viscount William, wait a few days, and our Governor's Mansion will send you your Viscount seal to the mansion at that time." ”

The young man said, he sorted out all the documents one last time, kept one for himself, and gave another one to William: "From now on, the contract is in effect, and the territory you have chosen is your fiefdom." If you need a construction worker, you can always ask the Governor's Palace for a proposal, and we'll send someone to help you. ”

He said some precautions, related processes, etc., and finally took care of the rest.

William departed with the papers.

As soon as the front foot left, a burst of laughter broke out in the conference room of Nuoda.

When William heard this, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

Sitting in the carriage driven by Crean, out of the forbidden area of the imperial capital, walking on the crowded Laurentian Street, a familiar voice suddenly passed over.

William pulled the curtain and looked out, only to see Young Master Sika of the Page family, leaning against the window on the second floor of a tavern, looking at him with a faint smile on his face, and greeting, "Coincidentally, Young Master William! I heard that you went to the Governor's Mansion to choose a fief, I don't know where you chose?"

"Haimanxing Province. William said bluntly.

When Sika heard this, a sip of the liquor he had just drunk in his mouth suddenly sprayed out, "Haiman Province, Young Master William, your vision is really high! ”

William sighed and said quietly, "Yes, the sea man's province...... It is indeed a rare place. ”
