Alchemical experiments are tantamount to chemical experiments, and they are equally dangerous. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

At night, an explosion occurred in the mansion of the Imperial Capital Rest family.

Fortunately, the place is relatively remote and sparsely populated, so there were no casualties.

The only loss was the alchemy laboratory in Sumera, which collapsed into ruins.

......

That night, William had insomnia.

He lay on the comfortable soft bed, tossing and turning, and all he could think about was Sumera's angry face.

Luckily, hard washboards are not popular in this world.

Although he had privately instructed Master Rhine to go to the Magic Holy City overnight to buy some alchemy equipment and rebuild a bigger and better alchemy laboratory for Sumera, this still could not alleviate the guilt in his heart.

He considered himself a single-minded man, and he loved his wife, although he and Sumera had not yet developed to that extent.

In addition to the guilt, William also had a faint ...... in his heart Excited?!

He was canonized as a viscount by His Majesty himself, and tomorrow he will go to the Governor's Mansion to choose a fief and have his own territory.

The fief of a viscount was, without a doubt, larger than that of William's son, Baron Bazado.

So, which place should be chosen for the fief?

Lying on the bed and thinking about it for a long time, William didn't come up with a result.

He coughed, and the maid who called the night guard outside poured a cup of coffee, put on a leather coat, and went to the study alone.

The study room is large, and the rows of shelves are filled with books of all kinds, which William reads when he has a little free time, and learns about the world through books.

William moved the wooden ladder and climbed the ladder, relying on the memory in his mind, and soon, a copy of the "Guide to the Territory of the Holy Spirit Empire" was turned over and placed on his desk.

The book is relatively new, printed in 753 in the Holy Spirit Empire calendar, which is the latest version released two years ago.

With a small sip of coffee to refresh himself, William opened the black cover of this thick book with excitement.

The territory of the Holy Spirit Empire is very large, with dozens of provinces, which is comparable to China in the previous life.

With so many provinces, the level of economy and development among the provinces is naturally different and uneven.

For example, the rich and prosperous province of Canaan, such as the moderate province of Kuwait, and the barren and backward province of Beigus with a very small population.

In those rich provinces, there are many noble lords. How can I say that? There are many monks and few meats, and it is not the turn of William to choose a fief at all.

A decent province, William is a little disdainful.

The remaining barren provinces are where William focuses his attention.

For example, the province of Beigus, where 'famous flowers have masters'. Beigus is known as the province of death, with a pitiful small population, a harsh environment, and perennial snowfall, resulting in temperatures that are not suitable for ordinary people to survive.

Therefore, there was no governor's palace in Beigus Province, and the leadership of the entire Beigus Province almost all fell on the lord of Daxueguan.

Powerful!

It's a pity that he is just a bare-bones commander who has the right to land, but no one and no soldiers.

There is no doubt that the province of Beigus is a sad place.

And the ideal fief in William's heart is this kind of place, but the specifics are different.

He wants to combine the experience of his previous life to find a backward province that can develop and rise rapidly, and be the first person to eat crabs.

With the rustle of the pages, the night grew deeper.

In the notebook on William's desk, the names of one province after another were also written.

When the day dawned, William stretched out his waist, snorted, and closed the book with a faint dark circle under his eyes.

The physical fitness is too poor, and he is completely a noble young master who is used to being arrogant...... No, he was originally a noble young master.

After staying up all night, holding the idea of exercising and strengthening his physique when he has time in the future, William changed his clothes and washed under the conscientious service of the maid.

After breakfast, the butler Crean personally drove the carriage and drove William towards the forbidden area of the imperial capital.

The Governor's Mansion in the Imperial Capital Forbidden Zone, also known as the Governor's Palace.

To put it bluntly, it is the boss, and the governor's mansions of other provinces are the second, and the noble lords who manage the fiefdom under the second are the third.

His Majesty the Emperor personally appoints staff to the eldest 'Governor's Mansion', managing the second, the second managing the third, and the third managing the fourth, layer by layer, clear and clear.

It looks good on the surface, but it's actually bad.

For example, the province of North Gus. Strictly speaking, Beigus had a governor's palace in the time of Charlemagne. But mind you, that's just once.

Now, does Beigus Province have a governor's palace? It is okay to say that there is, the governor's palace of Beigus Province has been merged with Daxueguan, and the lord of Daxueguan is also the governor of Beigus Province.

In some places, the sky is high and the emperor is far away, and the so-called provincial governor's mansion is just an ornament, which can only play a monitoring role.

If you don't mess around, govern your territory in a decent manner, we will take the money and grain of the empire, and eat and die every day.

If you dare to recruit troops without permission, and make any kind of ordnance and siege machinery, we will report you!

We have no money left, and if you don't come to bribe us, we will report you too!

In the face of the arrogance of some noble lords, the only thing the provincial governor's office has is the pitiful right to report.

It has to be said that this is a sadness and a policy drawback.

The Governor's Mansion in the Imperial Capital is easy to find, and the location is near the Treasury Office.

As the carriage of the Lester family passed by the treasurer's office, Crean skilfully pulled the reins and brought the carriage to a steady stop in a manner not inferior to that of a professional veteran driver.

William carried a small boxy box wrapped in precious silk in his hand and went to the treasury office first.

No matter what kind of society, it is important to deal with interpersonal relationships well.

So, here comes William.

Armed with four bottles of the finest perfumes from his own perfume atelier, William paid a visit to the Chancellor of the Exchequer, Mr. Rondoses.

This old fellow, pretending to be decent, sat in his office early in the morning correcting stacks of thick papers, and his attitude towards William's arrival was neither friendly nor bad.

When William placed the gift box containing the perfume on his desk, the Chancellor of the Exchequer nodded, said a polite word or two to congratulate William on his knighthood, and silently placed the gift box in a drawer.

What is it called?

If you get cheap, you sell well, and when you become a bitch, you have to set up a chaste archway.

Unlike Chancellor of the Exchequer Rondoses's six-point hot and three-point cold attitude, William has always maintained a respectful attitude, like a junior of a 'director'.

When I came out of the finance office, it was already ten minutes later.

William leaned over and sat in the carriage, Crean raised his leather whip, and the carriage started again, heading for the governor's palace more than a hundred meters away.
