Back at the dormitory, after seeing that he had washed up, Gooden made it easy for Erin to hug her and go to bed.

Looking at Erin's dumb and cute appearance, he stroked her hair and asked.

"What's wrong? Still haven't come to your senses? ”

"Hmm." Erin leaned on the crook of Goodn's arm and nodded slightly.

"Actually, you don't have to worry about this identity, now you are a little lord, you are my chief maid, what a royal prince, this is all harmful."

As for returning to the royal family, Goodern will never go back, even if his father personally promised to pass on the imperial throne to him.

Can this thing be determined in one sentence?

And even if his father agrees, can his half-brothers agree?

If you are a normal person, you can find a pit if you think about it carefully, and he Gudern will not be fooled by this.

"I'm not thinking about this young master, I'm thinking about the affairs of the gods, what if they find out your identity and want to attack you? Even His Majesty couldn't prevent ......"

Listening to Erin's thoughts, Gooden's heart warmed that it was better for her little maid, and the focus was on his safety.

Hold it a little tighter and put it in Erin's ear.

"Isn't that still you? Your talent is even your majesty's want to recruit, and I will wait for you to grow up to protect me. ”

The heat poured in from her ears, making Erin feel hot and itchy, and her pink face after washing suddenly became even more red.

Erin nodded and whispered firmly, "I will...... Woo......"

But before he could finish speaking, Goodern had already blocked it.

Teaseing Erin for her to protect herself, Gooden's just gives her motivation.

In the past, Goodern had thought about hugging Erin's thigh to take him away, but now that he doesn't rely on Erin, he can be well protected, and even he has a chance to become a legend.

……

Nothing was said all night.

When I woke up the next morning, everything had been arranged as a chamberlain of the palace.

And this situation makes Erin a little unnatural.

In the past, she took care of the young master, but today her job was robbed.

Seeing that Erin's eyes had been drifting towards the maids, Goodern saw her sullenness and asked with a soft smile.

"What's wrong, jealous?"

"I didn't ...... No! Erin took a bite of the bread and shook her head.

Seeing the little maid's stubborn appearance, Gooden laughed, and then commanded the maids on the side.

"Now you will serve her mainly, and leave me alone."

"Yes, Lord Count."

After giving the order, Gooden turned to Erin and said.

"In this way, they serve you, and you serve me, so it will be fair."

Seeing the young master arrange this, Erin's little face regained a smile.

While the two were still enjoying breakfast, the chief attendant, Garley, led a group of people to the palace.

And Garay came to the restaurant alone and greeted the two respectfully,

"Good morning, Countess, Countess."

The sound of the countess made Erin's face turn red with nervousness.

Although Gooden has promised her the status of fiancée, this is not uncommon!

This directly called her wife, and Erin was more or less embarrassed.

But Gary didn't care so much, and after greeting him, he asked Goodern.

"Lord Earl, do you have any plans to go out today?"

"Not yet." Goodern shook his head slightly.

He only arrived in the royal capital yesterday, and he has not yet figured out the situation, and he has not made any plans to go out today.

When Garay saw this, he immediately brought it up.

"That's right, Lord Earl, take advantage of your free time to measure the data of the earl's dress to be used in the ceremony, so that the tailors can complete the adjustment as soon as possible."

Seeing that he had to customize additional clothes, Gooden sighed for the trouble of the ceremony, but nodded in agreement.

"Okay, let's measure it after breakfast."

"Yes, Lord Count."

Gary replied respectfully, then waited.

After the two of them finished breakfast, they took Gooden to a room dedicated to measuring clothing data.

And just as Erin wanted to step forward to help, Garay spoke.

"Countess, you need to measure your clothes too, so please go with the maid to another room."

Seeing that she was about to measure, Erin was also stunned for a moment and looked at Gooden.

"Look at what I'm doing, go, by the way, I'll give me a copy when the clothing data comes out, and it's convenient to find someone to customize it when the time comes."

"Yes, Lord Count."

The measurement did not take long, after all, it was a dozen or so people who measured and arranged at the same time, and in less than ten minutes, all the data of making suitable clothes were recorded.

And before Goodern could stop, a second wave of personnel came to the door.

"Hello, Lord Earl, my name is Qiao Fante, and I have been ordered by Your Majesty to arrange the reward arrangements for this award for you, and today I am here to negotiate and determine the planning of the territory and the management of the mine."

"Hello, Jovante."

Facing his reward, Gooden also had some expectations, and after greeting him, the two came to the living room on the side.

And the person brought by Qiao Fante opened a huge map on the side of the living room, which was a detailed map of the entire northern territory.

"According to His Majesty's will, the areas currently planned in the north to be all red will be classified as your fiefdoms."

"It includes eleven cities such as Jinyuan City, Ancient Stone City, and Howling Tooth City, plus sixteen surrounding family territories, all of which are yours."

Goodern was a little dumbfounded as he looked at the huge encircled area, which almost gave him half of the western part of the North.

Is this a fucking lord? The planned area is forty or fifty times larger than that of Qingyuan Ridge and Snow Valley Ridge combined.

Spanning more than 1,000 miles, if you carefully convert, the area here is almost comparable to the area of the three eastern provinces of Lanxing.

"Such a large area, all my fiefdom?"

Goodern reconfirmed with some disbelief.

"Yes, Lord Earl, you have done such great things in the North, and these areas are also places you have saved, so there is nothing wrong with attributing them to you."

Looking back at the map, Goodern saw that some of the family's territories were also planned, and the Rantega family next door was also included in the Matsumi Forest, which made him a little curious.

"What is the situation with these family territories? Why is it mine? ”

"That's right, many of these families were slaughtered by the orcs in this disaster, and one clan died, while some families gave up their due honor and relied on the orcs to betray the empire, so they were exempted from all their wealth and territory."

Hearing what Qiao Fante said, Gooden couldn't help but turn his gaze to the territory, if this is the case, it seems that this orc sneak attack has blown up a lot of two or five boys.

On the map, in addition to the territory given to him by the red zone, there are many other different-colored dots in the northern territory.

Jovante also introduced.

"These dots of different colors represent different mines, gold for gold, silver for silver, brown copper, gray iron, black for coal, etc., as well as some other special types of metals, gemstones and other minerals."

"The ones in the red circle already belong to you by default, so they don't count as required, and you can choose an additional five mines."

It seems that his father is stingy, and only selects five more mines for him, but you must know that the area planned by the red circle is hundreds of thousands of square kilometers, and in such a large area, there are nearly 100 mines that Goodborn has seen.

There is even a gold mine, two silver mines, and a copper mine in this area, which are directly owned by him, not to mention the iron mines, there are more than a dozen as far as the eye can see.

With such a huge family background, Goodern swallowed with difficulty and asked Qiao Fante.

"Do you have statistics on the distribution of minerals in my territory?"

"Yes, Lord Earl, please see."

As he spoke, Giovante took out a piece of paper with the stats and handed it to Goodern.

After taking the statistical table, Goodern took a cursory glance and was shocked by this luxurious mineral.

In addition to the three gold, silver and copper mines, there are as many as 37 iron ore mines, of which 13 are underground mines, and the rest are open-pit mines.

There are 11 coal mines, 8 lead mines, 6 tin mines, 5 zinc mines, 2 mercury mines, and 2 gem mines.

In addition to the above, there are 19 other metal mines that are being mined here and there, and all of them add up to 94 mines.

Such a large amount is enough for him to have enough resources to produce and develop, not to mention other veins that may be hidden.

A mine of this magnitude also made Goodern a little embarrassed to ask for other minerals.

"That, let's postpone the additional selection of minerals for a while, I didn't expect His Majesty to give me the territory of such a large area, let's put this matter on hold for a while."

"Yes, Lord Count."

Qiao Fante nodded and agreed.

He's just an errand runner, and if Goodern wants to hold off, then pause and delay.

Afterwards, Jovante proceeded to talk about the other rewards he had received from his promotion to earl.

"Lord Earl, in addition to the reward of your territory, Your Majesty has also prepared other rewards for you, and the details are all here, you can see."

Looking at the newly handed paper, Goodern took it with curiosity, and after carefully inspecting it, Goodern suddenly felt a little impulsive to return to the royal family.

My own father gave too much!

But Goodern held back.

Needless to say, coins were given as much as 300,000 gold coins in cash, plus a large ticket of exemption guarantees, such as no need to pay taxes for three years, and various imperial policy benefits in the territory, etc.

In addition to these, there were also a large number of city officials appointed powers, etc., and even the 27th Army Corps stationed in the west of the northern border was directly transferred to him, a total of 200,000 people were responsible for the role of stability.

However, this number seems to be a lot, but if it is assigned to eleven cities and sixteen territories, it is pitiful, and basically only the role of self-defense and maintenance is in it.

But on the whole, his father turned a large area in the west into an independent autonomous region, which can be regarded as the treatment of China.

This kind of treatment and more than the normal earl treatment, you must know that the division of the autonomous region, only the three founding archdukes in the empire can enjoy.

The other eight ordinary dukes were only more territorial and immunated, but they still couldn't achieve the same independence as the autonomous region.

For such a large area, Goodern chatted with Qiao Fante for several hours before he had a general understanding.

But as soon as this was over, Gooden was summoned by Olek to meet in the palace.

Helpless, Gooden could only temporarily put down the things in his hand and follow the attendants to the palace to meet his father.

In a shooting range in the palace courtyard, Olek and Hogzi were waiting for Goodern.

After leading here, Olek withdrew from the other attendants around him.

"How's the territory and the rewards understood? Is there anything else you need? ”

Seeing Goodern's arrival, Olek asked with a smile.

"Back to Your Majesty, the reward is too much, and the self-selection that was needed before is no longer necessary."

"Tsk, the more people the better, but there are too many people here, ...... strange thing"

Olek shook his head, then said.

"I'm here to talk about the kind of weapons your men are equipped with, Hogzi should have told you about it, can you show me a sample?"

Official, private, Orek didn't talk about it until now.

Goodern nodded slightly, and took out the foreign trade version of the rifle from his storage artifact.

The overall structure of the appearance rifle is one section shorter than that of the second generation, but it does not affect the man-machine efficacy, and it is still very easy to operate.

Looking at the 'burning stick' in Gooden's hand, the two of them were a little strange, Hogtz had seen the appearance of three generations of rifles, but this thing in front of him didn't look like that thing?

And Olek was wondering, can a piece of metal wrapped in a wooden stick really exert such a strong strength?

The expressions of the two changed, and Gooden naturally saw it in his eyes, so he opened his mouth to explain.

"This is an improved version of the second generation, and the Captain Hogs has seen the third generation version before, which belongs to the latest one."

"Although this thing is said to be one version behind, there is no change in power and operation, and it is specially designed to facilitate the sale of the empire."

As she spoke, Gooden asked Olek for an attack test to see how effective the weapon was.

With permission, Goodern shoved in a metal warhead and opened the safety to aim at the range.

After six gunshots, Olek was visibly interested in the weapon in Gooden's hand.

With his strength, he can clearly and clearly 'observe' the inner workings of this weapon called a 'rifle'.

Just a simple fireball impact can make a metal bullet give such a strong speed and lethality, and according to Olek's perception analysis, it would not be a problem for this thing to penetrate directly on a thinner armor at close range.

And the attack distance is also very terrifying, capable of reaching a distance of three hundred meters, which is already more than twice that of a normal strong bow.

At the same time, this thing can also carry semi-automatic bursts, although the bullet capacity is a little smaller, but this rate of fire allows the Imperial sergeant to line up and attack, which is also a very terrifying thing in an instant.

"This thing is really interesting, it is indeed a very powerful weapon for an ordinary sergeant, but why sell an outdated version? If you think about the price, you don't have to worry about it at all. ”

After commenting, Olek asked Goodern.

"That's your majesty, you have also seen the power and performance of this weapon, plus the imperial army needs to be equipped, the number will naturally not be too small."

"But there is no control mechanism for such weapons, and if they are exposed, this is not a good thing for the whole empire, just like the current military crossbow control."

"Once this weapon is used for assassination, in the case of a close-range raid, even a master-level person cannot take the first defense."

Gooden's words also made the two of them nod slightly, this weapon is indeed powerful, and once it is revealed, it will indeed cause a lot of trouble.

Goodern also informed him of some of the weapon's shortcomings, such as the need to replace the bolt receiver and the possibility of accidental injuries on the battlefield.

I don't care about these Olek, I need to replace and buy it, and the proficiency is injured by mistake, so I will be on it after training and proficiency, this thing is much easier than normal confrontation training.

After a brief understanding, Olek also started to play a few shuttles to try his hand, under the control of extraordinary precision, in addition to the first two rounds are adjusted and familiar, the back bullets hit the bull's-eye, almost 100% hit rate.

All kinds of small functions on the rifle, such as ammunition display, shooting life, crosshair adjustment, etc., are all determined after tens of thousands of adjustments by the weapons research institute.

It can be said that the foreign trade version of the second-generation rifle, in addition to the performance is castrated, the other functions equipped with are all those of the third-generation rifle.

The man-machine debugging is also continuously improved, which can be said to be quite perfect.

Olek also praised and sighed after the test.

"This thing is really good, the operation feel is still a variety of tips and small functions, it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a handicraft, how much does it cost?"

"One rifle hardware coin, one receiver two gold, one bullet copper coin and one round."

Hearing that this thing was so cheap, Olek wondered if he had heard it wrong, and hurriedly asked again.

"How much?"

After Goodern repeated it, Olek immediately took the shot.

"500,000 rifles first, 500,000 receivers, bullets...... Let's get 100,000 gold first! ”

"Your Majesty...... Your Majesty, this is too much and there is no need. ”

Hearing the number of his father's explosions, Gooden stammered and shook his head a little, and then explained.

"With such a large amount, with the current output of Qingyuan Town, there is simply not so much, and the role of the second-generation rifle is actually more training than actual combat."

Goodborn then told Orlek about the existing upgrade plan, and the two of them looked surprised when they heard that Goodborn was planning to do identification and accidental lockdown.

How can a weapon do this?

But after thinking slightly about Gooden's suggestion, Olek readjusted the ordering needs.

"Then adjust it to 50,000 rifles, 50,000 accessories, and bullets, let's get 5,000 gold."

"Okay, in this way, it will be all available in a month at most, and then you can directly shoot the army and come to Qingyuan Town to get it."

Hearing that the preparation for production could be so fast, Olek was once again shocked by his son, and couldn't help but ask.

"Didn't you say that the production was not that large? Prepare 50,000 a month, how do you do it? ”

In the face of Olek's inquiry, Gooden did not hide it, and briefly talked about the situation in Qingyuan Town.

And he said that when he said that the time production was not enough, he meant that it was impossible to give the empire the time to equip against the orcs in a short period of time.

If it really needs to be equipped with 500,000 rifles, Qingyuan Town can also do it, but without expanding the factory, it will take eight or nine months to complete.

By that time, the war situation has long been unknown.

And Oleg, as his father, has also expressed his attitude and identity, and he clearly stands with him.

In this case, Gooden also made his own sincerity, otherwise the price of the rifle would have to be doubled, and the bullet would be five copper coins per shot.

For Gooden's words, Olek's eyes were full of surprise and satisfaction, this son really didn't disappoint him!

……
