Mystery: The arrival of the new Black Emperor

After leaving the spirit world, Hobert said to Forsi: "You don't have to be so nervous. Look at how beautiful the scenery here is. Just treat it as a tourist."

Forsi took a deep breath: "It's my first time to have such close contact with a man. How can I not be nervous?"

By "close contact," she meant holding Hobert's arm.

Hobert thought for a while. Of course a girl would be nervous when she came into an unfamiliar environment. This was a more natural reaction. There was no need to ask her to stay calm.

On the way back to the mansion, everyone saluted Hobert respectfully, called him lord, and secretly looked at the beautiful lady holding his arm.

At this time, Forsi truly felt that he had arrived in the territory that belonged to Hobert.

Arriving at the door of the Lord's Mansion, Hobert shouted to the busy people: "This is my fiancée, Miss Fors! She just came here from afar!

"From today on, Miss Fors will be you, the mistress of this territory!"

People who were repairing the mansion put down their work and paid tribute to Forsi.

Philip in the crowd breathed a sigh of relief. Although this lady did not look like a local, judging from her clothes and appearance, she knew that she had a good education.

As long as the lord does not be deceived by beauty, he is really afraid that one day the lord will marry the charming woman raised in the yard into the baronial palace.

Helen, who came out to watch the fun, curled her lips: "Just holding arms? What's there to be shy about?"

After the two of them looked at each other at the door, Philip stepped forward and asked Forsi to go to the room prepared for her.

The room prepared for Forsi was packed out overnight yesterday. It is in the same courtyard as Hobert's room, separated by a study room in the middle.

Hobert's residence and the main hall have been repaired, and most of the repair work on the Lord's Mansion has been completed.

As soon as he entered the room, Forsi felt a wave of heat surrounding him. He didn't see the fireplace, but the room was very warm.

The decoration of the room is not so gorgeous, but it is very elegant. All the furniture and supplies are brand new. There are no cumbersome etiquette as expected, and there is no need to maintain good manners at all times as expected. This makes Forsi feel very good.

After letting Phillip leave, Hobert took out a paper bag: "This is the deposit I agreed to yesterday."

Forsi smiled and said: "To be honest, I just wanted to help you, and it would feel weird if I asked for your money."

"No, this money represents my respect for you." Hobert said seriously: "Of course I know how much determination it represents for an unmarried lady to do such a favor.

"This represents my respect and the friendship between us. You must accept it, otherwise I won't bear it."

Forsi then accepted the paper bag: "Then, what do you need me to do?"

"You should take a rest first," Hobert said with a smile: "You have done what you need to do, which is to show your face in front of everyone. I think that by tomorrow at most, people in the town will know that Sir Alex's fiancée coming.

"Oh, by the way, Helen will still eat at the same table with us during lunch.

"That's your first test. Don't give her a good look, but show some palace...er, I mean the momentum of a baroness.

"Don't worry, I will help suppress her. Don't be nervous."

Forsi took a deep breath: "Okay, let me work on my emotions."

Immediately, Hobert asked Forsi to rest. He first went to see how the form was being made, and then called Philip to get down to business: "Recruit another forty or fifty people to build a tomb for Viscount Wright's family starting tomorrow. "

Philip said: "Sir, it doesn't require so many people. It only needs twenty or thirty people. It will take three or four days to complete the project."

Hobert was stunned, and after asking, he found out that the nobles of the Kingdom of Feneport, or rather the nobles of the entire Northern Continent, did not have a tradition of lavish burials.

The tombs they built were not very luxurious or spacious. They were just several times larger than ordinary people's tombs, with an extra stone tablet and a thicker coffin.

At most, some toys, jewelry, utensils, etc. that the tomb owner liked during his lifetime should be buried with him, or whatever the tomb owner requested to be buried with him.

Hobert recalled his previous experience of tomb robbing. The tomb of the Viscount Antigonus was indeed not big. If there were not those traps, the tomb passage would certainly not be that long.

Moreover, there are indeed not many treasures in the tomb, and there are many things that were of little value when they were buried.

It's just that these things are now antiques after being dug out.

"Then find thirty people to build a tomb for Viscount Wright's family starting tomorrow." Hobert said: "Ask your son Roy to help. You mainly have to keep an eye on the Lord's Mansion."

Phillip nodded: "Yes!"

Hobert said to Schier again: "Go find a few helpers and inform the whole town that all residents will come to the Lord's Mansion to register their household registration tomorrow.

"Tell them that after registration, each person will be given 10 yuan plus food."

A nega is a common unit of measurement in the Kingdom of Fenebaud. Hobert once tested it with his hands. One nega weighed about the same as his impression of a pound.

Currently, there are only two units of measurement in Fenebaud, 1,000 fenegades and 1 farnerga.

Philip estimated that the grain seized from the bandits was at least several hundred fanegas.

Of course, Hobert would not let this grain wait to mold in the warehouse. In addition to being food for the workers of the Lord's Mansion, it had a greater use for Hobert.

He told Schier: "I don't care what method you use, you must ask everyone in the town to register tomorrow. You can scare them. If you don't register at the Lord's Mansion, you will be a black household, and the tax will be doubled in the future.

"Go to the housekeeper to collect the fees for hiring helpers!"

This is the first time that Sir Alex has assigned a job to him, and Siler attaches great importance to it: "Don't worry, Sir, I will definitely handle it for you!"

Hobert nodded: "Tomorrow, go to the surrounding villages and notify them. They will be divided into two batches. The day after tomorrow and the day after tomorrow, let them register. In short, the household registration must be completed within three days. You decide how to divide them."

Then he ordered Philip: "Prepare fifteen tables in the front yard tomorrow. Except for the repair workers, ask all the male servants, gardeners, and grooms to put down their work and maintain order in the front yard.

"Prepare enough food for distribution and let trustworthy people distribute it. Don't be short-changed. In addition, only those who have met the person and completed the registration will be given food."

Finally, Hobert ordered: "Find two younger maids to help the future baroness clean up the room every day. However, without the lady's permission, it is best not to let the maids follow her behind. Instead, you can let the maids lead the room." Madam, let’s go take a look around the territory.”

Hobert found more and more that the lazy Forsi was very suitable for the "job" of baroness. He had heard from Xio before that Forsi could go a month without cleaning the room.

Thanks to [\u0026amp;Devil Whisper\u0026amp;] for the reward.
