The outposts and fortresses in this place are just about to be built.

It was within his own domain, and when Orlan appeared, a group of people were preparing the land.

In the past, the three barons were in their own affairs, and there were many unnecessary outposts and fortresses, which divided a lot of manpower and material resources.

In the future, their borders will only be expanded, and these fortresses and outposts will not be of much use to themselves, so Orlan will gradually split the materials of these places, so that it will not cost too much to build a few new wooden fortresses.

After inspecting the meeting left and right, Oran looked at the front of the entrance, where there were two soldiers who were erecting wooden signs, and walked over.

If Orlan doesn't come today, the person who carved the inscription is probably someone else.

This is the wooden sign at the entrance.

Oran took the carving knife and thought of a few names, but he was not satisfied.

The Titans, as well as Armand, who had been overseeing the work here, were also close to Rad.

Ladd knew that Orlan was very knowledgeable, and he didn't dare to make up his mind at such a moment.

Armand always maintained, being the "second speaker", not preempting everything, so he also watched in silence.

Only the Titans are thinking about the name.

"Your Excellency, if we don't call it Earl's Mansion directly, it's your inscription anyway."

This title made Ladd reply directly, "There are so many earls in England, which earl?"

The Titan could only shut up.

But this gave Orlan an inspiration, he changed the name that had been written, re-engraved a few strokes, his eyes suddenly shining, and said,

"Titan, this proposal is good!"

"Your Excellency, is it really called the Earl's Town?"

Orlan ignored it, and the knife wrote down the second word, ticking and turning, and finally he used his hand to remove the ashes from the wood and let the soldier hang it.

When the wording is displayed.

"King's Landing!" Armand froze.

"Your Excellency is our sovereign, he personally took up the pen, King's Landing here, the name King's Landing is very appropriate!" Rad is illiterate, but he is used to sycophants, and his eloquence is not slow.

"One day, Ben will make King's Landing as great as King's Castle!"

There's a saying that describes this great city,

"As long as the moon shines, Junbao will never fall."

Legend has it that the population of Junbao at this time has exceeded one million!

Looking at this world, it can be described as astronomical.

Oran was ambitious.

None of Durham's local forts and outposts have ever been built by themselves, but this place will be, and there will be many more castles in the future.

He added, "Listen, while you are preparing the land, you are moving some people over, there are mountains on both sides, there are natural barriers, there are streams and rivers and farmland not far away, and the forest resources are also abundant, so it is not a problem to live five or six hundred people."

Our original White Eagle Lord City is not in a good location, although the castle is located high and can be condescending, but the surrounding area is a plain, there is no danger to defend, and there are many enemies, so they directly surround us to death,

My father had no choice but to keep reinforcing the perimeter, but now we have a better choice.

This place, close to the central part of Northumbria, is closer to Ella and the other lords, so that we can easily communicate.

There is an overland trade route from Mercia, which also passes through here, which is helpful for our trade.

It's also close to the cow's neck, and the overall prospect is very good, so you have to build this place with care, understand?"

"Yes, Your Excellency."

Oran was in such a good mood that he even cut down a large tree and designated it as the foundation of the main house.

Ladd was also very acquainted, and did not show Orlan the total bill for the construction cost when he was in high spirits.

But the next day, when Oran was leaving, a stack of lists appeared.

The site selection has been completed, and the land preparation has begun, which requires labor costs, wood, stone, iron, and hemp...... Some of it can be used, another part needs to be mined, and then roads have to be built.

The manpower supplied by Oran will cost at least half a year of manpower and material resources.

After reading the list, Orlan returned it to Ladd, reassuring, "Within three days, I will replenish at least forty percent of the supplies, and you can continue to get it first." ”

Oran no longer listened to Ladd's complaints, and got back on his horse, galloping all the way southeast and down the avenue, almost without stopping.

2k

Another night he was back in the castle.

When he appeared, his dirty appearance startled everyone, especially the two lovers!

The two girls boiled a large bucket of water, and when they helped Orlan wash the dirt on his body and the coal stains on his hair, the basin of water also turned into black water.

At the end, Oran puts on his lord's costume again and puts on the ring.

A handsome and flattering White Eagle Lord is back.

When helping Orlan get dressed, the two women looked at each other, hoping that the other party would ask Oran to wait and find someone to serve.

But the moment Oran got dressed, he walked out without looking back.

He didn't have the heart to pay attention to the two lovers now, so he went straight to the hall and asked Southamp to take a look at the new account books that he had been away for a few days.

Kunsang was also there, and he helped to preside over the security of the castle these days.

Orlan asked one by one.

The Territory recently handed in another list of its assets.

Orlan transferred to Gazi and annexed Rowling Castle, although it swallowed a sum, but some of the interests of the damaged people were also dissatisfied.

Oran could not kill them all, so he set aside some of his possessions to appease them.

He counted the expenses one by one, and then said, "Has the Earl's letter arrived?"

"Your Excellency, here, I'll have someone pick it up right away." Southamp Road.

After waiting for the others to bring it, Orlan took a look and finally showed a little smile, "He is afraid of the Vikings as I thought, and as soon as I frightened him, he agreed to let us send troops." ”

Nanamp took it and asked, "Although he agreed, he was also afraid of us, and specified that we must enter according to his route, and set several strict requirements, why can only twenty people enter at a time, and weapons must be transported in batches, how can there be such a reason in the world." ”

"After all, this man has been an earl for more than ten years, and he may be incompetent in governance, but on the border with us, he has made a number of guard towers to defend us and the Vikings, if he doesn't take the initiative to let us in, we will attack directly, and the damage will be great.

Now, just let me push people into Seatown, and I'll have a way to pull out his city." ”

Orlan didn't say it explicitly, but Southamp guessed that one of the best ways to attack fellow believers without being held accountable was to fight "claims."

A piece of land originally belonged to this person, but maybe for some reason, this person lost the land, but one day if he has enough strength to take revenge, he can bring someone back.

And in the entire county of Durham, the woman who has the right to claim the "sea town" of Yerey County is the woman who was snatched back by Your Excellency, used to induce the Moore family to succeed, and now has been raising - Adesha.

"What about the woman?" Oran asked.

This kind of name has always been asked to Adesha, which made Southamp more sure of his guess, and immediately replied, "Adesha now prays and prays every day, and is very pious." ”

"Pretending...... Let someone help her bathe and change clothes, and bring her to the bedroom to see me at night. ”

Oran's meaning is clear, and Southamp understands it.

Then Orlan said, "Write a letter to Oxneck, and ask him to lead some people to attack Earl's border manor, not to storm it, but to increase the panic, so as to speed up the time for Earl to beg us to enter." ”

"Yes."

"And the kid 'Sals', what's wrong with him these days?" Orlan asked Kunsang instead.

Kunsang shook his head, "He is very responsible, he just comes to talk to me often, and seems to want to ask something from my mouth, but I remember your lordship's instructions and don't say much." ”

"Okay, keep an eye on him but don't offend him, the time for us to send troops to the south has not yet arrived, continue to delay, and the cost of his coming here is provided by himself, and all his subordinates live in the hotel in the territory, and we will not suffer."

Kunsang asked, "Rowling and Marcus?"

"Raise it for a few more days, and you can work for Benbo."

Orlan made the final decision, and when he didn't want to explain, it was all such ambiguous words, and his subordinates could guess if they wanted to.

But both Kunsang and Southamp could tell that Marcus would never be trusted by Oran.

"Since you want to be the first sword of the Seven Kingdoms, let you die with a sword."

Oran thought to himself.
