Lord: Harvest two talented teenagers at the beginning

In the next few days, Weilin followed his cousin and saw a different Gut territory.

On the other hand, I saw the achievements of my cousin's governance for more than fifty years and nearly sixty years.

The Gut Territory covers an area of ​​3,500 square kilometers. For a baron, such a territory is very vast, but for a viscount, it seems a bit small.

However, all these problems can be solved in the laws of the Kingdom.

There is no reclaimable territory around the Gut territory, so the only option is territory replacement.

Alcott could reclaim a barony territory on the border, compensate the small nobles in other ways, and replace their territory with the border, thus achieving a disguised expansion of the territory.

Whether the other party agrees or not depends on whether the noble who wants to change the territory has a strong fist and a deep enough background.

After spending the past few days together, I found out from my cousin that Uncle Alcott wanted to exchange territories with the seven barons bordering the Gut Territory.

The combined area of ​​these seven baronies amounts to 5,500 square kilometers, and it will take fifteen to twenty years to complete.

For Wei Lin, there is no such trouble.

There is a large area of ​​unowned land around it, and in the past ten years no pioneers have gone to the western border to open up, so he can't just enclose the land however he wants.

However, this also reminded him that within this precious time frame, he should enclose development as much as possible and have family endorsement. As long as he did not acquire a territory of 50,000 square kilometers, he acquired 23,000 square kilometers. area, there is still no problem.

After the title was promoted, no one dared to raise any objection.

After the short sightseeing trip, when we returned to the manor, it was the date of the banquet.

Compared with three days ago, there were gradually more nobles here, and many of the nobles' entourage were placed outside the camp.

Entering the outer circle of the manor, there is a grassland surrounding the manor, covering an area of ​​more than one hundred acres. A large number of young nobles are sitting on the ground and communicating with each other.

Many servants shuttled among them, serving tea and snacks and providing dedicated service.

Crossing the grassland and entering the central area, the nobles here are much more serious about the outer circle. They may take their wives to chat with friends, or take their eldest son to visit nobles with prestigious status, or noble ladies gather together to whisper. comminicate.

In the left corner, Verin found his cousin Brian and Edgar's eldest son Alik, who was surrounded by a group of nobles in the center, judging each other.

"Verin, follow me."

A servant whispered in Cowell's ear, and then took Verin's hand and entered the core of the manor.

When Weilin saw this, he could only give up the idea of ​​​​looking for his cousin.

Passing through the gate guarded by knights, Verin entered the heart of the manor.

In a spacious house, Alcott and Edgar were supposed to be the hosts, but at this moment they were sitting at the bottom. They did not feel the slightest dissatisfaction with the people sitting at the top, and were even quite honored.

Sitting on the main seat is a middle-aged man, and next to him is a young woman. From time to time, he feels the entire manor, and sees the person he cares about slowly approaching, and he can't help but smile.

Weilin entered the house and looked at the middle-aged man and young woman facing him, his expression instantly solidified.

"Little Weilin, long time no see."

The next moment, a veiled woman appeared in front of Weilin, stroking his messy hair with her hands.

"Um, grandma, why are you and grandpa here?" Weilin asked in surprise as he looked at the young and beautiful woman in front of him.

"Of course I came to see you, believe it or not."

Clotilde was in a good mood as she pinched her grandson's cheek.

Later, Verin followed his grandmother to the side of his grandfather Ignatius.

"My Verin, we haven't seen each other for six years. We are deeply sorry that we were not involved in the day you came of age." Ignatius said kindly.

"Grandpa, why are you here?" Weilin graciously accepted his grandfather's apology and then asked.

"Alcott and Edgar were promoted to viscount. Your father is staying with your grandfather and cannot come back for the time being. We happened to have recently returned to the Kingdom of Ilia, so I will attend this banquet on your father's behalf." Ignatius Si explained calmly.

"Are you happy? My dear Verin."

His grandmother Clotilde's smile was still so healing, and Verin didn't know how to reply for a while.

"Okay, Clotilde, you take Verin outside. I have some things to discuss with Alcott and Edgar." Ignatius waved his hand and smiled at Clotilde said.

"I see."

As soon as Clotilde finished speaking, she disappeared into the room with Verin.

After watching his wife and grandson leave, Ignatius continued: "According to the rules set by the family, if you become a viscount, then some things about the family will be disclosed to you."

"Starting from your generation, your direct descendants can choose to study under various counts. In the future, whether they choose to develop or join the kingdom's military, 70% of the corresponding resources will be provided by the family."

"At the same time, as a viscount, you will also fulfill your obligations, discover and contribute talents to the family, and maintain the talent supply of the main army under the family count."

"Finally, you two can choose a renewable resource from your family to serve as your pillar industry. Based on this, you can join the upper-level trading market in advance and use it to counterattack your small family."

"My son Angus will be with you later. This will take time."

"Lord Ignatius, we know this." Alcott and Edgar replied respectfully, but their eyes could not conceal their excitement and ambition.

"Next, I will tell you about the upper-class market in the kingdom and give you some useful information for reference. There are also some foreign business channels, including the families in the surrounding kingdoms who maintain close relationships with us."

As the mainstay of the Akers family, the Viscount is qualified to know some of the family's secrets.

As for Cowell, after sending Verin to the room, he left on his own.

……

In an empty garden, the figures of Verin and Clotilde appeared among the flowers.

"Little Weilin, how have you been these past few years? Have you missed me?"

Clotilde's tone sounded like she was teasing a child, which made Verin pat his forehead speechlessly, and said helplessly: "Grandma, I have grown up."

"Well, you were more cute when you were a child, but you are no longer fun when you grow up." Clotilde covered her face with her hands and said pretending to be sad.
