Lord: I have a skill talent tree

Ethan finally adopted the opinion of the treasurer Cloz and adopted a policy of equal treatment for those foreigners... oh, no, the newly arrived nobles.

Of course, equal treatment does not mean that they are allowed to participate in politics now, but to help them solve the problem of "home".

For now, one is to lift all unreasonable restrictions on them, such as prohibiting them from buying territories.

Second, to get some land from Lyon for them.

If Lyon can't give much land, the parliament will sell the island.

There are many islands within 5 nautical miles around Vilen Port. Not only are they large in area, but many of them have water sources.

Even if there is no water source, there is plenty of rain in Maro City. Dig a pit and do some waterproofing, and rainwater alone can meet the demand.

Although it is not suitable for farming for the time being, land is a hard currency no matter what era or civilization it is in. As long as there is access, no one will complain about poor conditions.

That's the situation with those islands. Although they need to rely on ships, they can be accessed by building a dock. It's less than 5 nautical miles away from Vilen Port, so it only takes a few minutes to get there.

The key islands are cheap. Not only are they cheap, but they don't have to pay taxes for the first 20 years, which is a compensation for their development.

Under this series of policies, those nobles rushed to buy them. They were not short of money, but they were short of territory, which was a need engraved in their genes.

Once the needs were met, the relationship between the locals and the outsiders eased a lot.

Of course, Ethan's relationship with them also eased a lot. They even specially held a banquet to invite Ethan to attend the dance to express their gratitude.

If it was before, Ethan would definitely not go, but this time he went, and brought Angelina and several children with him.

At the banquet, the topic that Ethan talked about most with many gentlemen was of course orcs. Obviously, everyone was very worried about this.

Ethan took the opportunity of his speech to tell everyone:

"If the orcs want to come in, they must first step over my body."

As soon as these words came out, thunderous applause immediately rang out in the venue.

Ethan waved to everyone and walked off the stage, then walked towards a woman with long wavy hair next to Angelina.

The woman's name was Fiona, a countess, and also the founder and leader of the "First Lady" organization.

After a round of greetings, Ethan found out that she was actually an alumnus, and even a senior, so the two talked about Allen College.

"Sir Ethan, I heard that you haven't been back to your alma mater since you came back. You are so heartless."

Ethan smiled and said, "I'm a dropout, but I don't have the face to go back! However, I don't lose a penny of the annual grant!"

"Allen College is not short of money, but it lacks outstanding representatives like you! Maybe you should consider visiting your alma mater, after all, there are your memories of your youth, and let the students admire the style of the great swordsman."

"Haha! I dare not go back. You may not know that a while ago, a tax bureau staff member went to the college to recruit people, but after recruiting people, he was stopped by several representatives of civilian students.

The representatives angrily questioned the admissions staff why they only recruited nobles but not civilians.

The two sides disagreed and almost fought.

You said that a tax officer is treated like this, what will happen to nobles like us?" When talking about "us", Ethan deliberately emphasized.

When Fiona heard it, she understood that Ethan was blaming the [First Lady] for going to the school to instigate those students to rebel.

At the same time, it is also a warning not to do such things again, because now it is "us", and civilian riots, especially student riots, are not good for anyone.

If it was before, Fiona would definitely pretend not to hear this. However, now that Ethan has shown enough sincerity, she naturally does not want to test the bottom line again.

Fiona smiled slightly, did not answer directly, but talked about another thing.

"As you said, it is indeed not easy to go. However, since you have gone to your alma mater, you have the opportunity to go and see the island we just bought. Now we are developing the island, so busy!"

This means that they are busy developing the island now and have no time to do such things. Of course, it is hard to say whether they will stop doing it in the future.

For such a tough reply, Ethan understood the meaning, but he did not understand where the other party's confidence came from.

Perhaps they feel that the current treatment is what they have worked hard for.

Ethan can only explain it this way.

At this time, the venue suddenly became quiet. It turned out that a little girl with a face full of oil paint led a symphony orchestra to the stage.

As the little girl came on stage, the lights began to dim, and people turned their heads to look at the stage.

"Sir Ethan, did you arrange this?" Fiona asked in a low voice.

"The only thing I can show off at home is this band, I asked them to help with the fun!"

"Wow! It's really exciting, I wonder which masterpiece will be performed tonight?"

"You'll know soon!"

As the two talked carefully, the music started.

As soon as the prelude sounded, the people present immediately heard that this was the famous opera "First Impression" of the Aslan Empire!

This song describes the ideal marriage of Elizabeth, the second daughter of the young country gentleman Bantner.

Mrs. Bantner was worried about finding future husbands for her daughters all day long, but there was no good candidate, so she asked her to attend the ball.

Elizabeth met the handsome and wealthy Sidda at the ball.

But she heard that Sidda was arrogant and always rejected him.

However, after the two went through some twists and turns, Elizabeth lifted her prejudice against Sidda, and Sidda also put aside her arrogance, and the lovers finally got married.

This song is based on daily life, contrary to the sentimental theme and promiscuous style popular in the early days of the Aslan Empire, showing the life and human nature of the imperial towns in a conservative and closed state at that time.

It also shows that only by breaking down barriers and prejudices can we make each other's hearts communicate and make the world more beautiful and harmonious.

Ethan asked Catherine to perform this song, and the meaning was obvious, that is, he hoped that everyone could live in peace.

As for whether it was useful, he didn't know, but he accidentally glanced at Fiona and saw that she looked thoughtful, thinking that it should be somewhat useful!

...

On the way back in the carriage, Angelina suddenly asked mysteriously: "Did the ladies' meeting I attended cause you trouble?"

Ethan raised his eyebrows and showed a surprised expression: "Why do you say that?"

"Just now Fiona said she was leaving. If our organization doesn't have her, we can't hold any activities, so I wonder if..."

"Did I force her to disband the ladies' meeting?" Ethan laughed.

"After chatting with you just now, she was silent, and finally suddenly said she would leave for a while. Isn't this very abnormal?"

"Hehe!" Ethan smiled: "Angelina, I said I won't interfere in your private affairs. I have always kept my word for so many years.

You can trust me completely. I am a principled person and will never interfere with the elegant gatherings of ladies.

Also, she just has something to leave, why do you think so much?

Parting is for a better meeting in the future!"
