Come to another world and become a lord

Chapter 37 Everything goes well

Lord? Carl? Dickens knew both words, but when they were put together, he was a little confused. At this time, Dickens even suspected that he had heard it wrong. Carl, shouldn't he be a lowly serf, a waste that should be trampled under his feet and dare not even breathe. But he wanted to eat swan meat and fell in love with Lisa, but even so, he only dared to secretly watch from a distance and didn't even have the courage to come forward and talk.

Such a person is a lord? How is this possible? No matter how you think about it, such a person has nothing to do with the word lord. But the female knight said it clearly, and standing behind her were the guards representing Rickburg, and they did not raise any objections to such remarks. Does that mean that all this is true? But how is this possible? He dared not believe it, and he did not want to believe it. In addition to reluctance, he was more afraid. If the waste who was once bullied by him is really a lord now, how will he deal with him?

Lisa on the other side was even more incredulous. Karl was a lord? This serf who was once looked down upon by no one had become a baron? She had always known that Karl had a crush on her, and she was not without a good impression of him, but she understood one thing. If she was with Karl, she would have no future. Like Karl, she was a serf since birth, but not exactly the same. She was the most beautiful girl in the village, and her beauty was her capital. She tried her best to please the youngest son of the village chief, Dickens, and even paid for him. She knew that the other party was a bastard, but she still forced a smile, all just to escape from slavery. But now Karl is back and has become a baron. What was the purpose of all she did before? She even told her that she was getting married. If she chose Karl, then she might have a chance to become a baroness?

Carl looked at the villagers kneeling on the ground with some embarrassment, and began to think about what to do next. Dickens' words made everything difficult. He knew that the village chief had sent him out to die. But now, if he wanted to control Porter Village and incorporate it into his territory, he needed the village chief's family to stand on his side.

Although he was the lord, in terms of actual management, whether his decrees could be implemented and whether taxes could be collected, to put it bluntly, all depended on whether the village chief Hake was willing to support him. For so many years, their family had been managing the village, and as the local tyrant, they could not be replaced just by saying so.

What's more, there is Earl Morton. He believes that if anything happens here, the old man will definitely take action. Now Rickburg is in ruins and he doesn't want to take any slight risk.

Carl was generally a rational person. If possible, he even hoped to let the unpleasantness between him and Huck go. He was still the mayor of Porter Village, and he could continue to be his own baron. Thinking of this, he began to resent Dickens again. Those blunt words ruined everything and made everyone lose face. He could tolerate this kid bullying him in the past, but he could not tolerate him being stupid at a critical moment and ruining his plan.

Just as he was worried, the village chief Hake, who was kneeling on the ground, spoke first:

"Great Baron, my son was just talking nonsense just now. Please don't take it to heart, my Lord."

Then, without waiting for Dickens to reply, he grabbed the guy's head:

"You kid, why don't you apologize to the lord!"

Then he pressed Dickens' forehead and slammed it hard on the ground, banging it several times in a row, even causing blood to appear. He looked extremely miserable.

The village chief's move gave him the opportunity to step down, and Carl seized the opportunity and said:

"You don't have to do this, Village Chief. It's just a misunderstanding between Dickens and me."

Then he comforted Dickens, who looked terrified:

"I have no improper thoughts about your fiancée. We are just childhood playmates, nothing more. I sincerely wish you two a happy marriage."

"My lord, you are so magnanimous~" Hake kowtowed again at this time.

"We shouldn't keep dwelling on these little things." He said as he helped up the village chief Hake. "In fact, I came here just to visit my fellow villagers. Potter Village is my hometown. I just hope that I, as the lord, can do something for everyone in the future~"

They were all polite words, but polite words are often the most effective. He saw Village Chief Hake kneel down and kowtow in gratitude, and then said a lot of compliments.

When Carl left the village, he felt very happy. Although there were some twists and turns in the middle, it was generally smooth. In the subsequent conversation, the village chief Hake established his lordship in front of everyone and knelt down to kiss him. Dickens changed his face and flattered him, and he shook hands with him generously. He also deliberately mentioned some things in their childhood. Although most of them were fights, from another perspective, it can also be interpreted as knowing each other as playmates since childhood. Once there is this relationship, there is more intimacy.

As for Lisa, he had no feelings for this woman, and even smiled and told her that he must be invited to the wedding. Although the girl looked somewhat embarrassed, Dickens' expression was unexpectedly enthusiastic, and even flattered her that the child she had in the future should be named after him. The atmosphere between the two sides gradually eased during the conversation. The village chief led the villagers to see them off for a long distance before they left.

"Done~" he said proudly to Alia, "Did you see the attitude of the village chief? I think there should be no problem."

"Are you sure?" The girl's face showed no joy. "They have offended you before, and even looked down on you..."

"That's true, but you have also seen the attitude of the village chief now." Carl said with a smile.

"That's right. Besides, we are all from the same village. There were some conflicts in the past, but that's not a big deal." Jim nodded in agreement.

However, there was still no smile on Alia's face. She said worriedly:

"Carl, it's precisely because of his attitude that I'm more worried. This Huck is not a good person."

Carl looked at the girl with a serious expression. After thinking for a while, he suddenly pointed at one of the guards behind him and said:

"You, stay in the village for now. If you see anything unusual, come back and report immediately."

"Yes!" the guard saluted, and after thinking for a moment, he asked, "If they ask me why I stayed, how should I answer?"

After thinking for a while, Carl said:

"Just say that the lord cares about his village and specifically left you here to look after it. If the village chief has any needs, he can also ask you directly."
