Chapter 379: The Mistress of This Territory

Leaving the spirit world, Hobert said to Furth: "You don't have to be so nervous, look at how good the scenery is here, you should be here for a tour." ”

Furth took a deep breath: "It's the first time I've been in such intimate contact with a man, how can I not be nervous?" ”

By "close contact," she meant holding Hobart's arm.

Hobert thought about it, a girl coming to an unfamiliar environment, of course, will be more nervous, this is a more natural reaction, there is no need to ask her to be calm too much.

On the way back to the mansion, everyone respectfully saluted Hobert, called him Sir, and secretly looked at the beautiful young lady who was holding his arm.

At this time, Foirth really felt that he had come to the territory that belonged to Hobert.

Arriving at the door of the Lord's Mansion, Hobert exclaimed to the busy people, "This is my fiancée, Miss Furth! She's just come here from afar!

"From today onwards, Miss Furth is you, the mistress of this territory!"

The people who were renovating the mansion put down their work and paid tribute to Forthth.

Philip in the crowd breathed a sigh of relief, although the young lady did not dress like a local, but judging by her dress and grooming, she knew that she had a good upbringing.

As long as the lord doesn't be fooled by beauty, he is really afraid that one day the lord will marry the bewitching woman who was raised in the courtyard into the baron's mansion.

Helen, who came out to see the excitement, pouted: "Just holding your arm?" What's there to be shy about? ”

After the two men had taken a picture at the door, Philip stepped forward and asked Foirth to go to the room that had been prepared for her.

The room prepared for Forth had been cleaned up overnight the previous day, and was in the same courtyard as Hobert's room, separated by a study in the middle.

Hobert's quarters, as well as the main hall, have been repaired, and the Lord's Mansion is mostly complete.

As soon as he entered the room, he felt a wave of heat envelop him, and he didn't see the fireplace, but it was very warm inside.

The decoration of the room is not very ornate, but it is very elegant, all the furniture and supplies are brand new, there is no imaginary cumbersome etiquette, there is no imaginary need to maintain manners at all times, which makes Furth feel very good.

After letting Philip leave, Hobert took out a paper bag: "This is the deposit I promised yesterday." ”

Firth smiled, "To be honest, I'm just here to do a favor, and it always feels weird to ask for your money." ”

"No, this money represents my respect for you." "Of course I know how determined it is for an unmarried lady to do such a favor.

"This represents my respect, but also represents the friendship between us, you must accept it, otherwise I will not bear it."

Foirth then accepted the paper bag: "So, what do you need me to do?" ”

"Let's take a break," Hobert smiled, "what you need to do has been done, which is to make an appearance in front of everyone, and I think at most tomorrow, the people of the town will know that the lord's fiancée is here."

"Oh, by the way, Helen still eats with us at the same table at lunch.

"That's the first test for you, don't give her a good face, give her some Zhenggong...... Well, I mean the baroness's imposing coming.

"Don't worry, I'll help suppress her, don't be nervous."

Foirth took a deep breath: "Okay, I'll brew my emotions. ”

Immediately, Hobert told Furth to rest, he first went to see how the form was made, and then called Philip to get down to business: "Go and recruit forty or fifty more people, and from tomorrow onwards, build a tomb for Viscount Wright's family." ”

Philip said: "Sir, it doesn't take so many people, it only takes twenty or thirty people, and it can be completed in three or four days." ”

Hobert was stunned for a moment, and after inquiring, he learned that the nobles of the Fenerport Kingdom, or the nobles of the entire Northern Continent, did not have a tradition of thick burials.

The tombs built were not very luxurious or spacious, but they were several times larger than ordinary people's tombs, with more stone tablets and thicker coffins.

At most, some playthings, jewelry, utensils, etc., that the owner of the tomb liked during his lifetime, or what the owner of the tomb asked to be buried.

Hobert thought back to his previous tomb robbery experience, the tomb of the viscount of the Antigonus family was indeed not large, and if it were not for those traps, the tomb would certainly not be that long.

And there are really not many treasures in the tomb, and there are many things that are not of much value when they are buried.

It's just that these things are antiques after they are dug up now.

"Then find thirty people and build a tomb for Viscount Wright's family starting tomorrow." Hobert said: "Let your son Roy help, you mainly have to keep an eye on the Lord's Mansion." ”

Philip nodded: "Yes!" ”

Hobert said to Schill again: "Go find a few helpers, inform the people of the town, and let all the residents come to the lord's mansion tomorrow to register."

"Tell them that after they come to register, they will be given 10 plus food per person."

The Nega is a common unit of measurement in the Kingdom of Fenerport, and Hobert once tested it with his feel, and 1 Nega is not much different from the weight of 1 city catty in his impression.

At present, Fenerport has only two units of measurement, 1000 plus is 1 farneplus.

Philip estimated that the grain seized from the bandits amounted to at least a few hundred farnega.

Hobert, of course, would not let the grain sit in the warehouse waiting for mold, and it would be of greater use to Hobert besides being food for the workers of the Lord's Palace.

He told Xier: "I don't care what method you use, tomorrow you must let everyone in the town do a good job of registration, you can scare them, if you don't register in the lord's mansion, it belongs to the black household, and the tax will be doubled in the future."

"The cost of hiring a helper, go to the housekeeper and get it!"

This is the first time that the lord has assigned himself a job, and Schill attaches great importance to it: "Don't worry, sir, I will do it for you!" ”

Hober nodded: "Go to the surrounding villages tomorrow to inform, divide into two batches, the day after tomorrow and the day after tomorrow, let them register." In short, you must complete the household registration within three days, and you can decide how to divide it. ”

Then he instructed Philip: "Prepare fifteen tables in the front yard to-morrow, and let all the manservants, gardeners, and grooms, except for the repairers, put down their work and keep order in the front yard."

"Be prepared to distribute enough food for trustworthy people to distribute, and don't miss a pound or two. In addition, only those who have met and registered will be given food. ”

Finally Hobert instructed: "Find two younger maids, and help the future baroness clean up the room every day, but without Madame's permission, it is better not to let the maid follow her ass, but let the maid take Madame around the territory." ”

Hobert increasingly found that the lazy Foirth was well suited to the "job" of a baroness, and he had heard Hugh say that Foirth could go a month without tidying up his room.
