Chapter 177 Baroness Crawley’s Request (2-in-1 Chapter (Page 13)

After thinking about it for a while, Renn initially leaned towards the third option, which was to serve as the Archon and Sheriff of Fishing Port Town.

The reason is simple, there will be enough battles waiting for him there!

And through fighting, he can get a big enough improvement.

But Renn's hesitation is that he still doesn't understand the strength of the enemies facing Fishing Port Town.

As for why the appointment is mainly made by consuls and supplemented by magistrates?

Hamilton mentioned this before when chatting with Renne.

Generally speaking, the sheriffs of imperial towns are mainly knights, and occasionally they may be quasi-knights or knights. For example, Hamilton belongs to the latter.

However, it is actually relatively rare for a knight to serve as the peace officer.

And if a baron serves as the sheriff, it has an obvious derogatory meaning.

Therefore, as Baron Wren, a normal appointment cannot be just the Sheriff of a small town.

However, the consul is different. He is responsible for all the affairs of a small town and is the top leader.

It is not uncommon for a baron to serve as the consul of a small town.

However, Renn was thinking about another question now.

Although it is not difficult for him to make a choice when faced with the three options proposed by Earl Habs, the problem now is that he actually wants to continue to be Hamilton's adjutant in Goldshire.

Because Renn's next step is to go to the Gold Coast, learn swordsmanship from Gundar for a period of time, and continue to serve as deputy security officer of Goldsmith Town. This will allow him to fish as much as possible, and Hamilton will help him handle many things.

But if he chooses to work in Fishing Port Town, it means that he will not be able to leave for the Gold Coast in a short period of time.

After thinking about it, Ren decided to tell Count Habs directly:

"Lord Earl, I hope to postpone my appointment for a while. I am currently in a period of rising strength, so I want to go to a swordsman master to practice swordsmanship. So..."

When talking about this, Renn felt his scalp numb, because Count Habbs's eyes were staring at him at the moment.

After all, from a certain perspective, Renn could be considered as violating the will of his superiors.

Especially when the other party gives you face and gives you a choice.

After a brief silence in the room, Count Habbs finally spoke.

"Okay, then I will give you a month. However, in this case, I will directly arrange an appointment for you. In one month, Ren, you will serve as the consul and sheriff of Harbor Town."

After hearing the last sentence, Renn's face became happy. Unexpectedly, Earl Habs finally helped him decide on this position.

"Of course, thank you Lord Earl for your understanding and support."

After talking about this, Earl Habs suddenly changed the subject and said with a smile: "Ren, I heard that you and Claire have known each other for a long time?"

"Huh?" Renn immediately realized that the Earl in front of him should have checked himself thoroughly.

Come to think of it, the Habsburg Manor is also under the name of this Earl, whether it is the manor's steward Knight Lloyd, Perez's swordsmanship instructor or even the head maid Xia Dia.

If he knew that it was Earl Harris who wanted to know his situation, I'm afraid no one would dare not to report it honestly.

From this point of view, the other party agreed to go to the Gold Coast, and he may have benefited from Claire.

"Well, that's right, Lord Earl, in fact, to a certain extent, Miss Claire is my guide on the path of knighthood." Ren said calmly.

"Haha, very good, Ren, if you have any difficulties in the future, you can come to me. Remember, Meister County will always be your hometown."

"That's it for today. I still have some things to deal with. Regarding some trivial matters, my butler Henry will take you to deal with them."

"Of course, thank you Lord Earl for your understanding and help." Renn bowed slightly.

I saw Earl Harris shaking the bell on the table.

"Jingle Bell!"

Soon, an old man in a tuxedo walked in and took Ren to a room on the first floor.

Henrik, the butler of Earl Habsburg, is actually a nobleman with the title of Lord.

Ren nodded politely.

This can't help but remind Ren of an old saying in his previous life, 'The prime minister's servant is a seventh-grade official'.

It seems that as long as it is human society and the power class is solidified, the situation is basically the same.

When the butler Henry opened the door, Renn raised his eyebrows and was quite surprised.

He did not expect that there was actually a model similar to a huge sand table placed in the room. The sand table clearly showed the terrain undulations of the entire county, and even the main streets were marked in detail.

Especially the aristocratic mansion area is simulated with small wooden houses, which are so lifelike that they can almost be seen as being scaled to the same proportion.

"Baron Wren, here are some free mansions. You can choose on your own." The butler Henry pointed to the three cabins with white labels on the tops and said.

"Thank you!" Renn nodded and looked at it carefully.

The areas of noble residences are also divided into different levels.

The outermost categories are knights and lords. In the eyes of some upper-class nobles, these two categories are not really aristocrats. They are the largest in number, but in the county where land is precious, the area of ​​the mansion is also the smallest. of.

A circle further in, there is the baron level. In the county, this is considered the backbone of the force, and the number is much smaller than that of knights and lords.

Further inside, there is the Viscount's mansion, which only has five or six holes. The cabin simulates a villa that is larger and more luxurious.

And in the center, like the stars looming over the moon, is naturally the residence of Earl Habbs, which is the land under Ren's feet at the moment. It occupies the largest area, is the largest, and is also the most luxurious.

Within the Baron's circle, Ren's eyes slowly swept across. Soon, he saw the mansion marked with the words 'Crawley Family'. He saw it not far away, about three mansions apart. , there is a white-labeled baronial mansion that is temporarily vacant.

After thinking for a moment, Renn pointed to this building and said, "Lord Henry, is this building OK?"

"Of course, as long as you like it, Lord Baron."

"Just this one!"

"Okay, by the way, Lord Baron Wren, since you don't have a fief for the time being, I will register it as the residence of the Baron Wren family, okay?"

"Of course." Ren nodded.

In the empire, male nobles who do not yet have territory are generally addressed as 'name plus sir' or 'name plus title'. For example, Renne, others can call him "Lord Renne" or "Baron Renne".

However, once there is a fiefdom, for example, the name of the Rennes fiefdom is 'Normandy', the official title is mainly 'Normandy Baron'.

Of course, there is no problem in using the two titles mentioned before in informal situations.

Regarding fiefdoms, this is different from Ren's impression in his previous life. The titles of Dragon Kingdom are divided into duke, marquis, earl, viscount, baron, lord and knight.
