Lord of Scourge: Begin as a Demon Archduke

"Thank you, Fianna."

After speaking without any extra explanation, after taking a deep look at the other party, he turned and left.

Fianna stared blankly, watching Lauren's retreating back, not recovering for a long time.

She understood the meaning of this sentence...

After returning to the hall, Lauren just sat down when two maids in black and white maid costumes immediately entered the room to make tea.

The two maids are both eighteen or nineteen years old, and their youthful appearance adds a bit of color to the house.

Lauren held the porcelain white teacup engraved with the Bauhinia pattern, and slowly sipped the warm black tea.

The hot tea entered the abdomen from the throat, warming all the way, and the fatigue suddenly subsided a lot.

He waved his hand and let the maid who was about to step forward to massage his shoulders back down.

"No need, go get busy, I have something important to discuss with Mr. Pole."

The two maids looked at Lauren's almost perfect face, looked at each other in disappointment, pulled their skirts and squatted down, saluted gracefully, then turned and left.

It's just that there is some resentment in my heart.

After finally getting a chance to get in touch with Master Lauren, they didn't grasp it......

"Bohr, have those frogmen been moving these days?"

Lauren looked at the butler beside him, his eyes were as sharp as a falcon.

The gray-haired Boer looked a little ugly when he heard the name frogman.

"My lord, those frogmen live in the water, on a small island in the center of the lake, we can't do any real harm to them without boats.

But they don't seem to be very interested in us, except for the sudden appearance of the bloody day to attack us, they have never attacked us again, and they have never even come to the shore..."

On the last bloody day, because of the small number of people in the Gray Eagle Territory, only a few dozen blood polluters were attracted.

In addition, with Fianna, a powerful platinum powerhouse, sitting in charge, it was possible to defend it at that time.

But at the last moment, a group of brutal frogmen emerged from the nearby lake.

Those amphibious races with fish gills on their faces and able to breathe underwater launched a sneak attack on the Gray Eagle territory.

With no preparations at all, the territory was attacked by enemies.

As a result, the army suffered heavy casualties, and most of the residents were massacred.

That is to say, the territory that the blood polluters broke through at the last time, and they left immediately after the blood moon subsided, otherwise the whole territory might be gone.

"Those damned mercenaries dare to deceive us!"

The location information of Gray Eagle's territory was purchased by Lauren from a mercenary team at the tavern for 100 million pokes.

Butler Bohr was also there at the time, but the other party didn't tell them about the frogman in the lake at all, which was a big loss for them.

A bit of coldness flashed across Lauren's eyes. There was some debt, and sooner or later it would be settled.

"The frogmen in the lake are not very strong. If they are prepared, they won't be able to make much waves."

The lake water is a natural barrier. Without boats, it is too difficult to exterminate those frogmen, and the Gray Eagle Territory does not have so many resources to put on it.

"The focus of the work now is to enhance the defense of the territory and enhance the strength of the army."

"After the city hall is established, I will lead the army out to hunt monsters and increase the strength of the army."

After the words fell, Lauren looked at the gray-haired old butler with unusually serious eyes.

"Bohr, after I return to Gray Eagle's territory, everything will definitely change.

I am no longer what I used to be. From this moment on, the Gray Eagle Territory will shine brightly.

We must be able to stand on the endless wasteland! "

Looking at Lauren with firm eyes and confident eyes.

Butler Boer was shocked, and he recalled the scene where dozens of human soldiers changed jobs in a blink of an eye and became a rare job.

There was some excitement in his eyes.

"Master, I am looking forward to the day when the territory stands proudly in the endless wasteland under your leadership and becomes the dream land that everyone yearns for..."

Lauren nodded slowly, "Everything will be there."

His faith is as strong as steel.

"Master Lauren, Mr. Pole, the kitchen has prepared food, do you want to enjoy it now?"

While the two were talking, a chubby kitchen lady entered the room cautiously to report, with a strong smell of oily smoke on her body.

Lauren waved his hand.

"Wait for a while, Boll, go and call Dinah and Dern. I want to discuss with them about the construction of the city hall and the rebuilding of the Arrow Tower."

The rewards of these two tasks are very precious, and the sooner they are completed, the sooner they will be relieved.

Butler Boer followed suit and said, "Mary, you go down first, and the food will be delivered after I notify you."

The fat aunt nodded quickly, and saluted as well, tugging at her skirt.

But the action of the fat aunt is completely different from that of the two delicate maids. She is wriggling like a chubby meat ball...

When the fat aunt returned to the backyard kitchen, several young maids who were working immediately put down the dishes in their hands and surrounded them, chirping and asking.

"Aunt Mary, does Master Lauren need a meal?"

"Is the master really as handsome as Annie and the others say?"

"This time, let me deliver food, Aunt Mary, I haven't seen Master Lauren yet."

Aunt Mary laughed.

"Master Lauren is definitely the most handsome boy I have ever seen, but I advise you not to think too much about it.

Master's guardian, Mrs. Fianna, is not comparable to you maids.

Hurry up and work, there are hundreds of people waiting for food in the backyard..."

Alas...the maids wailed suddenly, dispersed sullenly, and continued to work in the kitchen.

There is an obvious level gap in the manor. As the owner of the manor and the owner of the Gray Eagle territory, Lauren is the only master in this land, the ruler sitting on the throne.

Bohr, the butler below, is the existence of the second level.

Going on, logically speaking, it should be the servants who symbolize the face of the manor. Having a team of tall, strong and powerful servants has always been the face of the nobility.

But because Gray Eagle's territory is still very rudimentary, there are no male servants here for the time being.

At last came the turn of the ordinary maids and kitchen cooks.

Although the manor is not big, there are many things to be busy every day. Under the pressure, the owner of the manor, Lauren, is undoubtedly the object and focus of all the maids' discussions.

If any lucky maid is taken by the master, she may be able to turn herself into the mistress directly, which is very lucky.

Of course, a maid can become a concubine at most, but even so, her status is countless times higher than that of an ordinary maid.

What's more, is Master Lauren such a handsome and outstanding young man?It's all so beautiful...

Thinking about it this way, bringing tea and water to Lauren every day, and even cleaning Lauren's room would make the maids compete with each other.

[38.Chapter 38 Establishing the City Hall]

Gray Eagle's territory is too small, so small that the number of people who can use it in Lauren's hands can be counted in one slap.

The bearded Dern and the genius interior officer Ariel are one of the few who can be used.

They will also be needed to help build a town hall.

But after thinking about it for a moment, Lauren asked Butler Boer to summon the guard Kur, the barbarian chief Yas, and the kobold blood mage Sim.

This is an important agenda that determines the future development of the territory. Those who have a certain status in his heart should participate in it, at least they must know his will.

Under the summons of Butler Boer, all the staff gathered in a short time.

Deen and Ariel, who had just been assigned to the room and were worried, were finally notified. When they got the news, they immediately thumped down the stairs to the hall.

"Lord Lauren."

Seeing everyone in the room staring at him, the bearded Deen carefully bowed with his chest up, without any violation of the rules.

Ariel, who was a little nervous, lowered her head weakly, and squatted slightly while pulling her skirt.

"Master Lauren..."

The tone of voice has a shyness and timidity that can make people have a strong desire for protection.

Lauren put his hands on the long table, and the hot tea next to him was steaming slowly upwards, and he sat with his back straight.

The aristocratic temperament formed by good education came to the face.

"Don't be nervous, I called you here to hear your views on the establishment of a city hall."

Guard Officer Kool, Barbarian Chief Yas, Kobold Bloodline Mage Sim, and even Fianna, butler Boer, all had little experience in administration.

The only two under him are Deen and Ariel who are internal affairs personnel with high system evaluation.

Compared with the second task of the system - rebuilding the arrow tower, the task of establishing the city hall is obviously easier to complete.

And after the establishment of the city hall, it will be more convenient to dispatch the resources of the territory to repair the arrow tower.

Sharpening knives does not miss woodcutters.

He looked at the nervous girl next to De En.

"Ariel, speak out your thoughts boldly.

It doesn't matter even if you say something wrong, I will support you, so don't be afraid. "

Naturally, the internal affairs personnel who can be evaluated as geniuses by the system are not bad.

But Ariel lacks self-confidence too much and needs encouragement.

He felt that there was no problem with Lauren's words, but the expressions of the others changed immediately.

All of them looked at Ariel with a bit of awe in their eyes.

Who is Lauren?Master of the Gray Eagle Territory!

With his own ability, he has won the recognition and awe of everyone present.

To be so valued by the other party, no matter how innocent this girl is, it's best not to offend her.

Only the bearded Deen felt an indescribable sourness in his heart, my lord, that is my daughter...

Ariel was shocked, she stood up bravely with her face still shy, and looked directly at Lauren shyly.

"Lord Lauren, I think the sooner the city hall is established, the better..."

"The scale of Gray Eagle's territory is not very large now. After the establishment of the city hall, even if there are problems, it can be adjusted immediately. When the scale expands in the future, we still have accumulated enough experience..."

"In addition, the construction of the territory requires a unified plan. If there is a city hall to coordinate in the middle, it will undoubtedly save a lot of manpower and material resources, and avoid excessive construction and irregular construction..."

The eyes of the other people in the room looking at Ariel changed again, with a bit of respect in their eyes.

They may respect both those who are capable and those who are not, but the point of respect is completely different.

"Good, go on."

Seeing Lauren's admiring gaze, Ariel's tense expression relaxed a bit. Although her hands were still tightly clutching the hem of her clothes, her smile became clearer.

"Master Lauren, I suggest that the city hall should open four departments.

The first department - the Ministry of Public Security.

Some soldiers can be sent to the Ministry of Public Security to become the backbone, and at the same time, males are selected from the residents to become non-staff security officers.

Organize training in your free time, and also serve as a reserve for the guard army, mainly by voluntary registration.

This can prevent the emergence of vicious crimes from within the residents, and can greatly improve the security situation...

Second, the Ministry of People's Livelihood, this department is responsible for managing people's livelihood, food, clothing, household registration and other issues...

Third, the Ministry of Construction, this department is responsible for planning the development of the territory in the next ten or twenty years, so that all buildings are within the planning...

Fourth, the Ministry of Agriculture, responsible for all agricultural matters, including how the land was distributed to slaves for cultivation, directing the cultivation of food...  

In addition, the army should be expanded separately, not under the jurisdiction of the city hall, and you will be in charge of it yourself. "
