Chapter 207

Victor's estate is located in a valley on the Bank of the black river. After several expansions, the manor covers an area of 3400 mu, with a lord's residence, 15 guest villas, four barracks, two warehouses, stables, pastures and gardens. The manor covers a nearby hill. At the foot of the hill, there is a 700 Mu forest land, and three pools are dug up along the mountain stream. Now, the manor is named silver moon manor by Victor.

The manor in the human world is the private property of the manor owner, including cultivated land, public land, manor owner's residence, farm worker's residence and so on. The manor owner is not a nobleman, but also a vassal, while the farmhand is a free people. However, these free peasants and farm labourers are different from the refugees without status. Most of them are the children of small vassals or leading families, and their ability, status, income and future are not comparable to the refugees. Therefore, manor farmers are far more loyal and reliable than migrant farmers.

A typical manor has a main building surrounded by farmland, pasture and woodland. In addition to organizing farming and animal husbandry, the manor owner also set up many production facilities in the manor, such as mills, wine cellars, weavers, blacksmiths and woodworking workshops. In most cases, the manor is self-sufficient, and the flour, clothing, cheese, wine and tools produced are an important source of income for the manor owner. The knight manor also produces armaments for the Lord, trains soldiers and raises war horses. Manor is a military economic unit. Even the aristocratic vacation manor, the pattern is basically the same.

Silver moon manor is different from the traditional noble manor. It is a pure leisure manor.

Victor's arms production is firmly controlled in hill camps and secret fortresses. He doesn't care about civilian technology. Randall's village undertakes the production task of civilian materials, which has the functions of both village and ordinary manor. Victor didn't need traditional manor. In addition, he built silver moon manor into a private park because of its large land, many people, many bricks and willfulness.

Yinyue manor is a beautiful scenery intertwined with hills and meadows. Entering the gate, a boulevard surrounded by tall and straight hemlock extends straight to the quiet woodland. On the left side of the road is a clear mountain stream, interspersed with three artificially excavated pools. The pool water is dark green, which is rippled by a breeze, and the beautiful hills reflected in the water are rippling with the wind. When the mountain flowers are in full bloom, it must be a beautiful scenery. More than a dozen exquisite villas stand on the right hand of the Boulevard. Compared with the broad and deep momentum of the whole manor, they seem more or less small, while the Lord's residence can be called magnificent.

The Lord's residence is the main building of Yinyue manor, covering an area of more than 60 mu, 22 meters high, with 5 floors, 110 rooms, 4 wine cellars and 8 storage rooms. The main building has the style of Gothic architecture, using a large number of spires. It is tall, thin and thick, reflecting the superb architectural skills of craftsmen. The outer wall of the residence is painted with white fine mortar. The white walls and black tiles are set off by two towering iron oak trees. The whole building is as gorgeous and spectacular as a palace. The distinctive artistic characteristics have a strong visual impact on visitors, which is unforgettable at first sight.

Victor had a lot of trouble building the Lord's house. He put forward the requirements of architectural style, and the alchemy auxiliary soldiers proficient in architecture soon completed the design drawings. Victor studied the design carefully and made up for this knowledge, so he found Anthony's Apprentice. Under Victor's repeated tips, the apprentice was still unable to complete the design work until Anthony came back. He led the apprentice to spend five days and finally completed the design.

Three months later, when the building was completed, Anthony came to watch it. As a result, even himself was shocked by the magnificent building. Anthony was ecstatic to thank Victor again and again. He thought it was the artistic talent in Victor's elf blood that helped him complete an innovation in architectural history.

Victor certainly won't point out. He spent huge human and material resources to build the silver moon manor not only for enjoyment, but also for publicity. Anthony, as a scholar of the white tower, occupies a place in the academic circle. His initiative will spread among the human aristocracy through the white tower. Once the trend of building vacation manor is formed, it will promote the development of the whole green brick industry.

It was an afternoon, and the sun was warm and soft. Victor and Mrs. Judy were walking in the manor. Not far away, Lilia was whispering with the Elena sisters.

Because Sylvia's attitude was so firm, Victor had to sign the marriage letter. After getting the marriage certificate, Sylvia left Randall's collar that day, while Elena and Alice stayed at silver moon manor.

The arrival of the sisters brought a lot of inconvenience to victor. He had to readjust the proportion of alchemists in Randall's population. More than 100 alchemy militia returned to the mountains to engage in the mining of Se silver mine, and Victor's Pro guard was also reduced by less than half, from the original 90 alchemy militia to 30 alchemy militia and 30 ordinary guards. One eyed longgru now serves as the captain of the pro guard, and Renault and shack serve as deputy captains.

Elena and Alice have wine red hair, snow skin and jade skin, beautiful face and gentle temperament, which make Victor enjoy all his happiness and some curiosity.

Generally speaking, even if a female trainee knight can't become a knight, she can marry a small Lord as a wife. Although the personal maid is also a legal partner, and her children also have the right to inherit, she is inferior after all. It's not often unreasonable to be a personal maid to a Viscount like the sisters. Moreover, the sisters had neither entourage nor relatives around them. Only they joined the Randall family and brought Victor a debt of 20000 kinsol.

When Sylvia stretched out her hand for money, Victor jumped up. When will the female trainee Knights sell each other and return 10000 gold sols for a dozen? Sylvia did not explain, sneered and said: dream! He took the sand table and left.

Victor later learned that the father of the Elena sisters was not a pure blood aristocrat. He only had two sisters with the maid in his seventies. Therefore, the blood and identity of Elena and Alice are very low, and their situation is even more difficult after their father's death. When the York family saw that the sisters were charming and twins, they took them over for upbringing and education. However, the aristocratic blood of the sisters was really thin, and they still couldn't understand the fighting spirit at the age of 18. Therefore, the York family spent 20 blood cleansing potions to activate their Knight's blood in order to marry other nobles with the sisters, and the debt of 20000 kinsol was the cost of the cleansing potion. Now, the sisters are cheap, Victor, and Sylvia will of course reach out to him for debt.

Although the Elena sisters are trainee knights, they have no possibility of promoting Knights because of the use of baptism medicine. As a marriage tool cultivated by the York family, their combat effectiveness is very general and their temperament is weak. On the contrary, they are quite proficient in music, etiquette and housekeeping.

Victor doesn't care about the blood and combat effectiveness of Elena sisters, but he won't raise these two female trainee knights as canaries. What he lacks is talent.

Victor's rise time is too short and there are few available manpower. In three years, he only trained a few village heads and War Bear department. In addition, more and more people join Randall's leadership, and the influence of the Nelson family is also growing. Victor does not doubt Nelson's loyalty, but checks and balances are still necessary, and the Elena sisters are the Randall family that can absorb fresh blood.

The Elina sisters have the background of York family. Victor won't let them access to the core affairs. He plans to let Elina manage the silver moon manor, train qualified family attendants and educate the children of members of the work point system. Alice is responsible for the green brick and crude sugar trade, and Lilia still controls the overall situation.

In order to improve the status of the sisters in Randall's collar and show them to the York family, Victor specially held a welcome banquet for them and invited father Miller, the middle-level of Randall's collar, Nicole and Mrs. Judy to attend.

At the party, Lilia and her sisters were very close, at least on the surface. Nicole was unhappy, and the other three women didn't dare to compete with her. Instead, Nicole became the protagonist of the party. This is also the norm of aristocratic banquet. Who makes Nicole a knight aristocrat.

Among Victor's women, Nicole is the only one who will be jealous. She even dares to be jealous in front of Sylvia, and Sylvia doesn't think she is disobedient. Victor couldn't understand it. Fortunately, he always had a way to appease Nicole, and Nicole also had a lot of things to deal with. After a few days of tenderness with Victor, she reluctantly left the silver moon manor.

Women's business is just a little trouble. It's hard to predict what changes the Elena sisters will bring to Randall's collar. In any case, Victor nouveau riche completed the magnificent turn of woodlouse to tuhao in three years. Now with the mansion in hand and the beauty on the side, Victor said to Judy in high spirits, "Mrs Judy, what do you think of the silver moon manor?"

With a soft smile on Judy's pretty white porcelain face and red lips, she said, "silver moon manor is the most beautiful manor I've ever seen."

Victor's eyes flashed and said politely, "then I'll send someone to lead in Buryat and build a manor for his wife. What do you think?"

"Ah?! ok... OK."

Victor built the manor in Buryat not only to promote the green brick, but also to show his relationship and influence with the Buryat family. However, there is another interpretation in Judy's ear.

Half a month ago, Judy's parents, Baron Matthew and his wife, visited the silver moon manor. The Baron and Victor talked about many details of cooperation, and the Baroness met Judy.

Judy learned from her mother that they had controlled the situation of yeliucheng. The old housekeeper returned to yeliubao, and the rest of Austin's party defected one after another. Austin's family was taken away by the SoLIM family, and Buryat led her back to Judy. This time, the barons will take primo, the family heir, to stabilize the people, while Judy will stay in Randall's collar until the dust settles.

Judy had no problem with such an arrangement, but the Baroness asked her to turn the rumors into facts.

Facing her mother's suggestion, Judy was a little embarrassed. Although it is common for nobles to find one or two lovers, it also depends on the status of both partners. How respected is Sylvia's position, and how dare Victor cheat behind her back? The Baroness said that Victor dared to accept his own decision, but Judy must take the initiative to show her heart. This is a matter of position!

Victor is young and handsome with noble blood. She is the ideal lover. Judy has received your daughter's education since childhood and does not conflict with such things. However, there are more women around victor. Sylvia doesn't have to mention it. Phinice is not only a knight, but also a baron. Although Lilia has no aristocratic blood, she is the most favored one. The Elena sisters are originally beautiful and charming. After the first rain and dew, they are more charming. Judy thinks she can't compare with one, not to mention the two. Victor was too busy, and Judy couldn't start. The barons took primo back to yeliucheng. Judy still didn't make any progress.

Now, Victor suddenly proposed to build a manor for himself. Is that a hint? Judy's heart was pounding, and two red clouds floated on her white cheeks, adding another three colors.

Victor didn't expect his proposal to cause such a misunderstanding. His attention was not on Judy. Gru was coming towards him.

"My Lord, a messenger from the York family has just sent a letter."

Victor took the letter in Gru's hand, read it, saluted Judy and said, "madam, I have something to deal with. Excuse me." Then he turned and walked to the house.

Watching Victor's straight back disappear behind the door, Judy bit her teeth and ran after him with a train.

Victor sat in his study, his fingers tapping the desk. There was a slight sound of footsteps outside the door. He knew from the sound alone that it was Judy.

The footsteps stopped in front of the door for a long time, and the knock sounded. Victor directly opened the door and welcomed Judy in.

At this time, Judy had changed her ferret fur jacket and only wore a low chest thin silk skirt. Her golden hair was sprinkled on her snow-white shoulders. Her crisp chest was towering, her thin waist was slender, and her beautiful and picturesque face was full of blush. Although it was the water season, the study was warm, her graceful body trembled slightly, and her small hands were twisted together. She lowered her head, stared at her delicate toes and whispered, "Victor, I..."

Victor smiled. He knew Mrs. Judy's intention.

The aristocratic relationship between men and women seems to be erosive, but in fact, it has its own rules, far from the random debauchery. In general, children are far more important than lust. The weak depend on the strong, and the low blood pursues the high blood. Whether husband and wife, close maid or lover, they all belong to the category of partner, and the relationship between partners is quite stable. The strong side will have multiple partners, while the weak side rarely derails. They can't bear the consequences of betrayal and are more eager to obtain their partner's offspring. Only Sylvia is a special case, but if Victor can make her have children, she must try to monopolize Victor, and Victor is difficult to resist Sylvia's charm. However, at that time, the strong and weak relationship between victor and Sylvia will be reversed again.

As far as Judy is concerned, she needs to establish a stable primary and secondary relationship with victor. Becoming Victor's lover is her only choice. If Victor refuses Judy, she can only choose a strong attachment again, because she is only a trainee knight, and the Buryat family has been crippled by Victor.

Victor could not care about Judy's beauty, but he could not tolerate the rebirth of the Buryat collar. Everyone knows this. If Victor doesn't want to form a partnership with Judy, Sylvia will choose one of the great Knights of the family to undertake it. This is a political marriage with the least influence.

Victor is not a saint, let alone hypocritical. He holds up Judy's delicate chin, stares at those beautiful eyes and says frivolously, "baby, we have plenty of time, but not now."

Although Judy decided to show her heart, she was still embarrassed after seeing victor and forgot all the means taught by the baroness. Hearing this, Judy relaxed, and elegance returned to her again.

Victor returned to his seat, raised the sheepskin letterhead in his hand and said, "His Highness Prince Edward has inspected the man and horse hills and has been stationed in Heibao. His Highness has brought the documents of the Senate. The Senate asked us to go to the capital to explain Austin's murder."

Judy's face became a little pale. Victor smiled and comforted, "don't worry, it's all expected. Go and clean up now. We'll start tonight, go to Heibao town first, meet your highness, and then go to the king's capital."

"Yes, I'll prepare now." Judy bent her knees and left the study.

Victor shook his head. Judy's blood is not bad, and she inspires fighting spirit by herself, but she was taught by her mother to be a noble girl with weak will. Although she became the Lord's wife, she still went the wrong way in the end.

Putting aside his inexplicable thoughts, Victor went out to find a servant and told him to call Lilia.

After a while, Lilia came to the study and sat directly in Victor's arms.

Victor hugged Lilia and said softly, "I've wronged you."

Lilia shook her head gently, but her little red mouth tooted. Victor said with a smile: "this is also a helpless thing. Our territory is in the human horse hills, we must be consistent with the York family, and let everyone know this. But I promise, they are not as important as you."

"Yes!" Lilia nodded hard, and Victor said, "I'm going to Wangdu right away. If you want to stay and look after the house, I can only take the Elina sisters. After the Wangdu affair is over, I'll go to the dark forest. Don't ask why?" Victor put his finger on Lilia's red lips and continued, "when I come back, it's almost five months later. For such a long time, the family's business depends on you."

Lilia twisted her body and asked anxiously, "Victor, is this dangerous? Let my brother go with you?"

"Nelson can't go. He has to recover from his injury externally. Internally, he can control the situation. Moreover, Linda is pregnant, so he can't go." Victor shook his head and said, "there are a few things I want to tell you."

"Now, many women from liberal families are pregnant, which is a good thing and contributes to the stability of the territory. When you arrange your work, you should pay attention to protecting pregnant women. It's best to arrange some women to go to father Miller and learn some medical knowledge. Father Miller has to manage more than 20000 people after all. He can't be busy alone."

"Farming is basically over. Draw out some people to participate in the construction of stream reservoirs. After the water season is over, you can start building the castle in Hekou town. When I come back, I hope to see five stream reservoirs and a castle. Can you do it?"

Lilia raised her voice and said, "of course you can."

Victor hesitated and said, "if there are difficult problems to solve, you can ask Nicole for help, but you still have to hide the core affairs from her..."

Lilia didn't forget that Nicole opened her mouth and finally nodded silently when she heard Victor's reaction after he was in danger.

Victor sighed and said, "go and call Jack for me."

Shortly after Lilia left, Jack came to victor.

Jack is the first monkey militia under Victor's command. He not only practiced the monkey's secret form to a high level, but also practiced the simplified version of Funiu's secret form. Coupled with the explosion of secret skills, his strength is second only to Renault in the alchemy militia. After three years of training, Jack and Renault's EQ have been greatly improved. Although they can't be compared with ordinary people, at least they can't see obvious differences, just like a simple and dull farmer.

There are 17 alchemical militia like Jack and Renault. Victor calls them elite guards.

"Jack, I have received a summons that a suspicious target has been found in the dark forest. In the next few months, I will leave Randall's collar. Before I leave, I have a task for you."

"You go to the mountain fortress, select 50 alchemy militia, 20 war mastiffs and 80 alchemy crows, and then go to the Everglades to carry out the investigation task to see if there is any trace of ant people, draw maps, investigate resources and pay attention to abnormalities."

Jack asked, "Sir, what is the level of the task?"

"No level! I want you to make a decision at the moment while preserving yourself!"

"I see, my Lord."

——————————————

When Jack rushed to the mountain fortress, father Miller came out of the chapel, stared to the West and murmured, "finally think of the Everglades."

"Father, what are you talking about?" A church attendant asked curiously.

Father Miller smiled, "I said! What should happen will happen! What should meet will meet!"

As soon as the voice fell, the old priest's body immediately bent down, and the wrinkles on his face were much deeper. The whole person was like an instant aging of ten years.
