Mystery: The New Dark Emperor Arrives

Chapter 356 Hobert started his show operation
Hobert could also use "Travel" to send the letter directly to Backlund, but after all, he just went to Backlund some time ago and made a big fuss, so it would be troublesome if the official Extraordinary took precautions.

Putting on the cloak again, Hobert used his "travel" ability to arrive at the room prepared for him in Christine's mansion.

This room was relatively secluded. After observing that there was no one outside, Hobert jumped to the roof to avoid the servant's sight and came to the door of Dopheus's room.

He knocked on the door, and a voice came from inside: "Come in."

Hobert quickly closed the door after entering, "Good evening, Mr. Dolphus."

Dopheus's expression was still so stern, and he couldn't see any joy or anger: "Are you in the fief?"

He paused and said again: "The earl is not at the house, he went to a banquet today."

"Yes, I have arrived at the fiefdom." Hobert roughly explained the process of going to the fiefdom, and then took out the 700 pounds cash that he had prepared earlier:
"Mr. Doves, please help me change this money into lisos tomorrow. I want more coins in silver lisos, and gold lisos, just exchange some coins or banknotes of 1 or 2 gold lisos for me."

In Jeffrey Town, it basically costs less than gold lisuo.

Dopheus nodded, took the money and counted it face to face.

Then he also briefly talked about Christine's recent situation. Christine showed his talent a little bit and was reused by Fernando II. Now he is leading a reform of military logistics.

Hobert probably understood that Christine's current situation was very similar to the "lonely minister". The king just took advantage of his lack of any background to carry out some reforms that would definitely offend others.

This is one of the reasons why Christine is reused. The other reason is that Christine is indeed talented and intelligent. While being used by the king, he can also ensure that he will not be killed by the king to quell the reform. brought anger.

At the end of the conversation, Hobert asked, "Is there a shop selling donuts nearby?"

"There is one in the back kitchen."

"Is it fresh?"

"As far as I know, it just came out of the oven at around 5:23 p.m." After speaking, Dopheus got up and went out, and brought back seven or eight donuts a few minutes later.

After chatting for a few more words, Hobert got up and said goodbye when he couldn't continue talking with Dolphus, took a donut and left directly with "Travel".

Back in Geoffrey Town, Hobert set up an altar to summon a messenger to deliver the letter.

Hobert ate two donuts, which tasted pretty good. Then he turned on the oil painting and fell asleep quickly.

In the early morning of the next day, Hobert closed the oil painting and came to the front yard.

Philip, who lived in the Lord's Mansion, got up early and was already instructing the gardener and his son which flowers and plants to trim today, where to plant some flowers, and so on.

Hobert nodded, Philip has withstood the test, and he can be relieved to be the butler.

After breakfast, Hobert called Philip over: "It's time to find a cook and a helper, we can't buy every meal.

"In addition, regarding the renovation of the mansion, I have a new idea. I built a large furnace in that room. The furnace must be built underground, and then each floor is raised to leave a one-brick-high space under the floor. Seal it well before laying the floor.

"Finally, use a sealed passage to connect the large fire stove with the space under the floor of each room. Remember that the position of the fire must be lower than that of the passage, and you must find a leeward vent to let out the smoke..."

Hobert talked and drew, trying to make Philip understand his thoughts.

Philip sighed: "It's a very strange design, can it make every room warm? What's its name?"

"Yes, it's called Fire Dragon!" Hobert said again: "As for the craftsmen who repair the mansion, in addition to looking for craftsmen in small towns, they have to go to each village to recruit people, two people from each village!"

Philip was taken aback: "It seems that it doesn't seem to need so many people."

Hobert smiled and explained: "This is to let them know that they have a new lord."

Philip nodded: "Yes."

Hobert asked again: "Have you any son?"

"Yes, there are two."

"Let one of them come to work." Hobert said: "Come here now, I will continue to inspect the territory in a while, and two servants will look more decent.

"Also, you can inform the servants of the original lord's mansion that whoever wants to come back to work can come back after negotiating the salary."

Philip stammered, "They, they all have some concerns."

Hobert glanced at the building on the mountain: "I understand, you will organize a group of people in a while, clean up the warehouse first, and wait for your son to report back."

Philip was taken aback for a moment, but didn't ask why.

Soon Roy, Philip's eldest son, arrived, and Schill had fed the horse and re-saddled the saddle.

After all the people were gathered, Schill led the way with Hobert's two-handed sword on his back, Hobert rode in the center on horseback, and Roy followed behind.

It took more than an hour for the three of them to climb the relatively gentle hillside.

Looking down from here, the full moon lake is full of water vapor, setting off the two banks like a fairyland.

The scenery is really good, but the vegetation on the mountain is messy and affects the landscape.

Hobert thought, if a railway track and a small train are laid here, it will be much better than some scenic spots in his impression.

There are a few hilltop fields on the mountain, which look quite fertile. Although it is winter, they are still green and the crops are growing well.

According to Scheer, since more than 50 years ago, the land around Full Moon Lake has been able to harvest grain four times a year, and the output has doubled. Unfortunately, the crops that fall into the hands of people now are not as much as when they harvested two crops in the past. .

As soon as they arrived at the top of the mountain, seven people came forward to greet them. They claimed to be subordinates of the "Great Lord", and their expressions were quite arrogant.

There is also a large group of buildings on the mountain. It used to be the church of the Mother of the Earth, but now it has become the "Lord's Mansion" of the "Great Lord" and "Second Lord".

Hobert sneered and said to the arrogant people in front of him: "It's just running errands, what's the air? Go ahead and lead the way!"

Several people were about to draw their swords, but they still held back their anger and led the way.

Although the church on the mountain is not as large as Hobart's "Lord's Mansion", the building looks very solemn. This is because the attire that symbolizes the harvest has been removed, which looks a bit nondescript.

The church also has a large courtyard. A man in his 30s with a beard and a rough look stood at the gate to greet him: "Welcome Sir, I didn't expect that after six years, a man came to this land." The new lord."

This man was the "big lord". As soon as Hobert arrived, he heard that a new lord had arrived, but he didn't pay attention to it at all. He planned to scare this boy by the way when he was collecting taxes in a few days.

Maybe this young master from a big city will be scared away, but I just learned from Knight Duke last night that the new lord is an Extraordinary.

The "big lord" hasn't found out what the background of this kid is, so today he looks extra polite.

Hobert nodded pretendingly: "Just know who I am, and move out of here yourself. I'm going to change this place back to a church."

　Thank you [shangyuan] for your reward.
