After driving Baron Jin Hui away, Li Ang grinned at the other nobles and said: "Thank you for your witnesses, please go back, my father is buried today, it is not suitable to celebrate, and after I report to the House of Nobles and officially obtain the baron's letter of appointment, I will hold a banquet to invite you to come!"

The nobles hurriedly expressed their understanding, and then dispersed one by one.

The people of the Church of the God of Light are also preparing to leave under the leadership of Carlse.

However, before leaving, Karl Cer took a deep look at Li Ang and said, "Baron Li Ang, you have just awakened to become a dragon vein warlock, and you can defeat Li Wei as a tenth-level holy warrior, this is really not easy, maybe we will meet again in the future!"

When Li Ang heard this, he couldn't help but feel a pang in his heart.

It seems that this Karlser has finally reacted and is beginning to doubt the strength he has shown.

Li Ang was secretly shocked in his heart, but he smiled on his face, and said, "Lord Karser, you are too sensitive, compared to you who are already a transcendent rank powerhouse, what is my strength?"

Carlser said with a smile: "In short, Baron Leon, you should do it yourself in the future, don't make a mistake, the gods are watching us in the sky!"

With that, Carlser left with the people of the Church of the God of Light.

Leon looked at the backs of Carlser and the others, and a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth.

It is true that the gods are watching from heaven on earth, but after three years, they may be too busy to take care of themselves.

At this time, Mage Michelle came over with Peel and Alice.

The female mage said to Li Ang in admiration: "Baron Li Ang, you are really a genius, you have just awakened the dragon vein, you have defeated a tenth-level holy warrior, and you have also subdued a powerful demon pet, and the few warlock magic you have just cast are also remarkable, if you enter the HRE Royal Academy to learn magic, your future achievements will be limitless!"

Leon smiled slightly and said, "I really want to enter the Shinra Royal Academy to study magic immediately, but I still have some things that I can't run away from now, after all, I haven't been officially appointed by the House of Nobles, and I'm afraid that the territory also has some things that I need to deal with!"

Michelle nodded and said, "Okay, then you can wait for the freshman entrance exam in three months, but our academy generally only recruits genius teenagers under the age of eighteen, and you seem to be a little old, so let's do it, I'll give you a badge, and then you only need to show this magic badge to qualify for the exam!"

As she spoke, Michelle took out a badge that shimmered purple and threw it to Leon.

Leon took the badge and immediately noticed that it seemed to be a magical device as well.

Michelle said lightly: "This magic badge is similar to the one given to you by Carlser, and it is enchanted with a magic shield that can resist an attack of the mortal rank!"

Li Ang's eyes lit up, and he quickly pinned this badge to his chest.

Michelle said to Peel and Alice behind her, "Okay, I'll take you back to the academy, although the magic airship is fast, it costs hundreds of gold coins every time you take it!"

Soon, Michelle flew into the air with Peel and Alice on a magic carpet and headed south.

At this time, only Captain Kane and others were left by Leon's side.

Lord Al and Lord Pete glanced at each other, walked over and knelt down on one knee to Leon, and said respectfully, "My lord, we solemnly swear to you and continue to be loyal to you and the Aomori family!"

Li Ang hurriedly helped the two knights up and said, "Thank you two lords for staying, let's work together to build the Aomori family stronger!"

Lord Aier nodded and said: "Lord Lord, you must be careful of the Jinhui family, the Jinhui Territory is only a few dozen kilometers away from our Aomori Territory, if they send troops to attack us, we will hardly have time to react, although the empire prohibits the lords from fighting privately, but we also have to guard against it!"

Lord Pete also said: "The Golden Leader is located just above the trade road, is very rich, and has thousands of private soldiers, which is indeed a great threat to us!"

Li Ang smiled slightly and said, "Thank you two lords for the reminder, I know!"

Then Leon waved his hand and said, "Okay, let's go back to the castle first, hold a meeting, and I want to ask you about the situation of the territory!"

Soon, Leon and the others returned to Aomori Castle and came to the conference room on the second floor to hold the first meeting under Abbot Leon!

Li Ang said lightly: "Please report the situation of the territory to me first!"

Lord Aier nodded, and spoke first: "I used to be the political officer of the territory, and I am most familiar with the territory, and now there is a total of one Aomori Town in the Aomori Territory, ten villages directly belonging to the lord, a population of about 5,000 people, more than 50,000 acres of farmland, and can produce 50,000 stone of grain every year, deducting the peasant rations, the eleventh tax of the empire and the eleventh tax of the Church of Light, the lord can collect up to 10,000 stone as agricultural tax, but in previous years, Baron Liszt only collected eleven taxes, that is, five thousand stones, and the current price of one stone of grain is about one gold coin!" ”

"In addition, there is a dark forest that produces wood, furs, animal meat, fruits, and medicinal herbs, and can generate a commercial tax of about a thousand gold coins per year. ”

Then Lord Pete spoke: "I am also a magistrate, and now there are two knights of the extraordinary rank in the territory, me and Er, as well as Kane, a quasi-knight, each knight's fief is 1,000 stones, and a hundred peasant soldiers can be recruited from the farmers during the off-season, and they are responsible for patrolling and guarding the villages on the outskirts of the territory. ”

Captain Kane also said: "The lord's guard I commanded before was responsible for defending the lord and Aomori Town, with a total of 100 people, and it consumed about 300 stone of military rations every year, 500 gold coins for military salaries, and hundreds of gold coins for equipment, meat, and medicine. ”

After listening to the report of the three of them, Li Ang immediately frowned and pondered.

The current strength of Aomori Town is only three or four hundred people, but Jinhui Town has a thousand people, and once it is attacked, it is really a little unstoppable.

After frowning and pondering for a while, Li Ang decided to learn from some of the experience of playing strategy games in his previous life to manage the territory.

I saw him say slowly: "I plan to implement the separation of soldiers and peasants within the territory, and in the future, the knights will not have to waste money to recruit peasant soldiers from the farmers, I plan to recruit a group of good soldiers from the adventurers and mercenaries, and expand the lord's guard to a thousand people, led by me and a few knights." ”

Listening to Li Ang's words, everyone's eyes couldn't help but light up.

After the separation of soldiers and peasants, the knights no longer had to spend money to recruit peasants, and the peasants could farm with peace of mind, and the knights' income increased in disguise.

And the lord's guard, recruited from adventurers and mercenaries, is also much stronger than the peasant soldiers.

However, Lord Eyre said a little worriedly: "Most of the adventurers and mercenaries are unruly outlaws, and if they are incorporated into the lord guard, I am afraid that it will affect the stability of the lord, and these people's income is usually not low, and the salary of the lord guard may not be attractive to them!"

Li Ang smiled slightly and said, "It's okay, after entering my lord's guard, there is naturally strict military discipline to restrain them!"

"As for the attraction, we can increase the salary of the lord's guard, in the future, all the soldiers of the lord's guard will have their annual salary increased to ten gold coins, and they can get a house in the town, get free medical care, and after retiring at the age of fifty, they can also get a pension of five gold coins, and after death, they will have a pension of twenty gold coins, and after the soldiers have accumulated enough merits, they will have the opportunity to obtain the Dou Qi Gong method and become a knight!"

"Ah, such a high salary, that's a great thing for a soldier, but it will be a heavy burden on the territory's finances!" Lord Eyre, Lord Pete, and Captain Kane said in surprise.

Li Ang waved his hand and said, "There is indeed a bit of financial pressure, but fortunately I got 10,000 gold coins from Baron Jin Hui, it will not be a problem for the time being, and I will find a way to increase my financial income in the future!"

"The matter of expanding the lord's guard is handled by Lord Pete, and it must be strictly reviewed, as long as I have a reliable character and a good hand whose strength is above the third level, and I must not let other spies get in!"

"Instructor Sophia, please help train the swordsmanship and archery of the lord's guard!"

"Two magic advisors, please help control the ecological balance of the dark forest, and make sure that the demonic beasts do not appear outside the forest and harm the inhabitants of the territory!"

"As for Captain Kane, I will lead the lord's guard to patrol the territory, and when I am officially recognized by the House of Nobles, I will officially canonize you as a knight!"

"Yes!" the crowd agreed, and began to get busy.

While leaving, Captain Kane handed Leon a bag of Baron Liszt's relics.

The Baron's relics include a money bag containing dozens of gold coins, a bunch of keys, a magic crystal used to carry out magic transmissions, and a code book with a large number of magic crystal codes and names. As for the baron's weapons and equipment, they have turned into burial goods.

Leon put away the baron's relics, slowly went to the top floor of the lord's castle, and opened Baron Liszt's room with the key.

The rooms are large, with a reception room, a study and a bedroom from the outside to the inside.

From today onwards, this will be his room.

After using his mental power reconnaissance skills to search the room for a while, Leon finally found a secret room.

After opening the secret room, Li Ang found a book of income and expenditure, more than 1,000 gold coins, and a copy of the Aomori family's family fighting qigong method "Blood Battle Qi".

This blood fighting qi was summed up by the ancestors of the Aomori family in the bloody battles again and again, although it is only a primary fighting qi technique, but it brings together the efforts of countless predecessors.

Li Ang opened "Blood Battle Qi" and read it carefully.
