PS: Thank you Haoliang for your tips and ...... Ahem...... Renewal Ticket-0-

PS: Ah, I've just been busy for a while, and here comes another wave, let's stick to at least one more in the past few days, as for updating the ticket...... A mouthful of old blood squirted on the screen......

After Leon and Jeff had a conversation, both of them were in a good mood, and then Jeff dutifully reported on the preparations for the party, and then built a start at 5:30 p.m. sharp.

"Also, since this is Campbell's first big gathering since his freshmanship, and it may become a permanent holiday to continue, is it not a more formal speech?" said Campbell's chief looking into the eyes of the young lord.

In fact, Leon also had this intention, but he deliberately asked: "Wouldn't it be more practical to let them see the changes that happened in the manor, and the changes that happened in Campbell?"

"It means a difference," Jeff said, shrugging his shoulders, "They rarely see you, and for most people, the lord represents the will of the entire territory, and it would be more inspiring than anything to hear you paint a picture of their future for them." ”

Leon smiled and nodded, and said, "Okay, I'll talk about it then." ”

"Now I'll go and have Moros come and see you," Jeff stood up, "and if you need to see anyone else, I can arrange a time for you." ”

Leon thought for a moment and asked, "What are Cheney and the hunters doing?"

"They're still funny," a smile appeared on Jeff's face. "After leaving the council chamber yesterday afternoon, Cheney and a few others walked around the manor a few times and talked to a lot of people at the same time. ”

Then they went to where the refugees from Brown Bear Town lived. First they apologized and gave everyone a piece of money, supposedly to make up for the atrocities committed by their colleagues, and although the refugees reacted coldly at first, they could not resist the impatient persuasion of Cheney's men, and then slowly accepted it. ”

"Cheney found Eric early this morning with a few more men, who were still in the council chamber when I came. The matter of a free trade zone should be being discussed. ”

"Cheney is still a good person," Leon sighed, "although most of it is done for me, but since I have this heart...... It's also worth affirming. ”

"Then there's no need to shout Cheney. I'll go to the council chamber now, let Moros go straight over, and see if Irene's okay, if she goes to Clement's. ”

Jeff was ordered to leave. Leon walked all the way in the direction of the council chamber.

Today's manor is noticeably much more lively. In addition to the normally trained recruits and the construction site that had been busy since the early hours of the morning, there were many people who were moving between Manor Avenue and the various buildings. They carried wooden tables in their hands, or benches of different styles, and when they reached the end of the avenue, they were neatly placed in order, and then someone laid a light red tablecloth, and then placed candlesticks and all kinds of ornaments, in addition to the strips of colored cloth that fluttered on the buildings of the avenue, these bright colors and busy figures immediately added a rather lively and festive atmosphere to the manor.

"Good morning. My lord!"

"Hello, sir!"

Greetings kept coming, and there was no longer a blank look on the faces of these people. Instead, there was a rather satisfied look of excitement.

Li Ang nodded his head many times along the way, and the smile stayed on his face and never disappeared, although it was a little tiring, but he enjoyed it, because these familiar scenes made him seem to find a trace of the feeling of "New Year" when he was a child.

“...... It's a pity that there are no fireworks or firecrackers," the young man thought with some wistfulness, "or call Erin and Cheney to throw a few fireballs into the sky at night?"

Soon he gave up on this idea, not to mention whether it was feasible to achieve it, Erin would definitely give him a roll of the eyes first.

There were noticeably fewer people as he approached the council chamber, and Leon walked to the door, knocked a few times, and then pushed the door in.

"Your Excellency, you're here!"

Several people sitting around the long table immediately stood up and greeted the young lord.

Li Ang sat down on the main seat, glanced left and right, and asked, "How is it? Are there any plans for the free trade zone?"

On his left were Cheney, Boris, and Joseph, as well as three hunters who looked familiar, and Eric was the only one on his right, and the hunters did not speak, just waiting for the head of the trade district to answer the lord's questions.

"That's all it takes," Eric said, "and when the houses that have recently begun to be built on the estate are completed, we'll be working with a group of craftsmen to set up the initial framework of the trade area, and the hunters will help with some of the preliminary work, and when it's time to get back on track, Cheney will pick out some people to help me take care of the guarding of the trade area." ”

Then Eric said some more detailed arrangements, and Leon listened with great interest, only encouraging him to let it go, but did not give any specific advice, and such a trusting attitude also made Cheney and others feel the importance of Eric as a supervisor.

At this time, the figures of Moros and several other mountain people appeared outside the door, and Eric and the hunters knew that the lord was here to discuss matters, and immediately stood up and took their leave.

Before they left, Leon suddenly said, "Cheney, you're doing a good job. ”

The veteran mercenary was stunned for a moment, and then understood what the other party meant, and hurriedly said: "This is what should have been done, after all, we have also been in Brown Bear Town for a long time, and this happened...... It really makes us feel guilty and can only help them as much as we can to make amends. ”

"Anyway, you've done these things to show your attitude," Leon nodded at him.

When Cheney finally left, he was obviously in a good mood, and it was estimated that his good mood would last for a long time, but Leon had already put this matter aside and turned to smile at the old mountain man who had just walked in.

"Something has happened recently, and I don't have time to go around the station, how are you doing now?"

"Very well," Moros sat down at the table, "everyone's recent situation is very good, and the condition of those wounded is also improving, and it is estimated that it will heal in a while." ”

"I've heard Yelena say about your trip to the Black Forest, it's dangerous, but it's also wonderful, and it's a pity that I wasn't here at the time, otherwise I'd have to see it. ”

Probably because of his mood, Moros's face was much better than before, and even those deeply intertwined wrinkles were stretched, and the whole person seemed to be more than ten years younger.

"Moros, winter is coming to Campbell, and it's too late to start building a dwelling now, so let's take everyone to the manor in a few days," Leon said, "and it's not too late to go back when the winter is over and the forest is green, and there will be plenty of time to do so anyway." ”

Moros laughed, "Well, since you said it yourself, I won't shirk it anymore, and after the party, I'll go and ask the people to get ready, and try to return to the manor within ten days." ”

Then the old man of the mountain people looked at Yelena and Menshak beside him, and said to Li Ang: "My lord, I want the mountain people to also participate in that physical fitness test, what do you think?"

Leon shook his head, "That's just for newly recruited young people and mercenaries of uneven strength, who haven't experienced real battles, so they set a standard for selection. ”

"But I understand the physical fitness and combat effectiveness of the mountain people, and the most important thing is that you have experienced really tragic battles and have a strong will to fight, so it is not much necessary to participate or not. ”

"Moros, when the mountain people are all here, you first select a hundred people, plus the fifty people who came to the manor in advance, and I will organize them into a separate team, with Yelena as the captain and Menshak as the vice-captain, directly under the command of Katarina. ”

"This is a team that can participate in the battle directly, and I am very much looking forward to their appearance. ”

"Me too, my lord," Moros, Yelena, and Menshak said at the same time.

"My lord, what about me?" Vasily, who was sitting in fourth place, kept blinking, but in the end he didn't hear his name, and immediately couldn't help but ask.

Leon and Moros looked at each other, and the old man said, "Campbell is calm, and we are all going to spend this winter in the manor, so Vasily doesn't need to be with me. ”

The young man nodded and said, "Vasily, how about you serve as the vice-captain with Menshak?"

The mountaineer who was good at wielding the double knife immediately nodded vigorously, with an irrepressible excitement on his face. (To be continued......)
