Chapter 323

Victor hasn't returned to silver moon manor for seven days.

The big and small lords around the Buryat collar have formed an interest circle around the wild willow city. The news that the barbarians are about to visit Randall collar has aroused everyone's suspicion.

These days, Victor, Nicole and Gillian live in Judy's manor, attend various noble gatherings held by Yeliu City, clarify the facts to trading partners, and tell them that the barbarians will temporarily live in Raven town thousands of miles away, and the trade of Yeliu city will not be affected.

After stabilizing the situation in yeliucheng and living a luxurious life for a few days, Victor was blocked by Nelson and others as soon as he returned to Pinghu Town. When it comes to the issue of joint-stock system, Victor plans to discuss the details of the gold business group with Lilia, but he didn't expect that the chief executive of the family went on strike for two days and went to Yinyue manor for vacation.

Victor went straight to the silver moon manor without saying a word. He wanted to tell Lilia the consequences of playing a small temper with practical actions.

Silver moon manor is less than 10 kilometers away from Pinghu Town. It took only a quarter of an hour for the fast bird to carry Victor to the entrance of the manor. The guards opened the beautifully shaped iron railing door from inside. The fast bird rode lightly and surrounded victor. Several sensitive and strong sartrels ran over and wagged their tails. They wanted to get close to the male owner, but they were afraid of the fast bird's claws, Just follow the team on the green fields on both sides of the road to the Lord's house.

Walking along the Boulevard, Victor found something wrong with silver moon manor.

Yinyue manor is built in a valley, covering an area of 3400 mu. It has meadows, woods, gardens, mountain streams, horse farms and a whole hill. It has a 22 meter high Lord's residence and 15 guest villas, as well as infrastructure such as warehouses, barracks, servant houses, corral stables and stables.

Yinyue manor has beautiful scenery and magnificent momentum, but there are not many servants in the manor.

After taking charge of Yinyue manor, Elena hired 80 indoor maids, 120 handyman servants, 40 manor guards and more than 180 small attendants. There were only more than 400 people in the whole Yinyue manor.

On weekdays, servants are mainly concentrated near the Lord's residence, and other parts of the manor seem cold and desolate. Today, people are gathered near the guest villa on the left of the Boulevard. Some of them are painting the walls of the villa with special mortar and white sand, some are replacing tiles on the roof, some are carrying new furniture into the villa, and then carrying out the old furniture. The one next to them is puffy, The foreman pointing was actually Mo Lin, the head of the first village.

Victor pulled the reins, and the fast bird gradually stopped, and a snore came out of his throat, causing the sartrel to bark. Maureen noticed the movement of the hound and turned to see victor and the swift riding. He confessed to his deputy and ran over at full speed.

"Your Excellency, you are back." Maureen saluted.

"What are you doing?" Asked victor.

"Decorate guest villas." Maureen looked back at the busy workers and replied with a smile.

"Decoration?" Victor asked curiously, "there are factotum servants in the manor. Why do you want to decorate the guest villa?"

"This... I don't know." Maureen scratched his head: "Mrs. Lilia personally ordered us to repair the silver moon manor from inside to outside within 30 days. I was responsible for redecorating each guest villa and replacing all woodwork and doors and windows. George and they were responsible for tidying up the garden and lawn, Kent was responsible for the barracks and stables, Ferrero was responsible for dredging the sewers and landscape lake, and Benson was responsible for the roads and shade trees."

Victor was stunned and asked, "how many people did Lilia mobilize?"

"There are always 2000 people."

"You go and be busy."

Victor pressed the doubt in his heart, urged the fast bird, and soon came to the Lord's house. The fast bird cavalry took the reins in his master's hand and led the silver gray fast bird to the corral. Victor took four guards and went straight into the door of the house.

In the hall, several young and beautiful indoor maids were busy cleaning the floor and furniture. When they saw the Lord, they bowed down one after another.

According to the maid system of York family, Elena carefully selected 80 indoor maids. Most of them are unmarried virgins around the age of 15. They are smart enough, healthy, symmetrical, dignified and beautiful. The maids will work in Yinyue manor for three years, with an annual salary of 20 gold sols, which will be received by their families.

During the working period, the maid shall not leave the Yinyue manor without authorization, and shall not fall in love or lose her body. If she violates it, she may lose her job, and if there are serious consequences, she will also be tortured. At the end of the three-year working period, the indoor maid has the right to stay in office for three years until she reaches the age of 25, or get married halfway. At this time, Elena will give her a generous severance payment or rich dowry to ensure her survival Life is carefree.

Such strict regulations are mainly to prevent indoor maids from divulging secrets, and also to cultivate spouses for vassal families. If a maid is lucky enough to be favored by the nobility, it is another matter. In fact, the vast majority of indoor maids come from leading families and are eventually married to vassal children by the hostess.

The Randall family does not have a real leading family. Among the more than 10000 refugee families, Elena selects only 80 people, one in a hundred.

Victor noticed that these housemaids had changed into new maid dresses, stepped on low heel ribbon women's leather shoes, tied spider silk ribbon around their waist, showed their hair in the snow-white fine linen scarf, and hung pearl necklaces on their white slender necks, with a trace of nobleness in their beauty.

The floors and stairs of the hall were polished by the maids, and all the furniture was replaced with gold powder wood. After this arrangement, the main building of Yinyue manor really became a magnificent and luxurious palace.

Victor was stunned and asked, "where's Mrs. Elena, Philip?"

Fili, the maid, blinked her watery apricot eyes and said hesitantly, "when I finally saw Mrs. Elena, she was scolding miss bertina in the lounge on the third floor... Master, do you want me to find Mrs. Elena?"

Emphasize that Elena scolds bertina. Do you want me to rescue the snack goods?

Victor's narrow eyes made Philip nervous. Two red clouds rose on her white oval face. Her eyes were erratic, and her long eyelashes trembled slightly, looking pitiful.

"No, I'll go up and find her myself."

Victor and his four guards disappeared on the stairs. Philip breathed out and patted her towering chest with her small hands.

"Wow, the master didn't twist Philip's face just now... Philip, don't be disappointed. I'll touch it for the master." A maid smiled and touched Philip's delicate cheek.

Her flushed face became hot again. Philip said in shame, "don't talk nonsense. You think it yourself."

"Hee hee, don't you want to?"

"All right, all right, stop it. I don't know what happened to bell?"

"Don't worry, the master dotes on Bell most..."

Don't you know the master's ears are the most clever?

The girl's chirping laughter clearly fell into Victor's ears. He boarded the third floor and heard bertina's childish voice.

"The pillow is so heavy... Bell, I'm tired."|

"Miss bell, please stand up." This is the voice of the monkey militia gunnel.

"Woo... Bell, I'm hungry."

"Miss bell, you need to stand two standard hourglass times to eat."

Victor opened the wooden door and saw bertina standing in the corner with a velvet pillow on her head. There were several blueberry stains on the chest of the waitress's clothes. She saw victor. Tears in her eyes immediately overflowed her eyes. Her mouth flattened. She wanted to cry and held back. Her little nose was pumping and pumping, which was poor and lovely.

"What's going on?" Victor asked with a suppressed smile.

Gretel replied, "my Lord, Mrs. Elena ordered me to stare at bertina and let her stand for two hourglasses."

Just then, the moving melody of high-heeled shoes hitting the floor from far to near, a graceful shadow flashed into the room, "honey, you're back." Elena threw herself into Victor's arms, offered a warm kiss and said happily, "what do you think?"

Elena is wearing a goose yellow silk half sleeved dress, revealing her symmetrical snow-white arms and a section of jade light-induced legs. Her wine red hair is tied behind her head, her waist is as slim as a willow, her lips are dripping, and she is beautiful.

"It's beautiful." Victor's hands around his thin waist are sliding towards the amazing elasticity.

Elena glanced at her lover and said, "what I asked is how about the room?"

There are several oil paintings hanging on the wall of the waiting room. Each set is equipped with exquisite silverware. A crystal chandelier with a diameter of one meter is suspended in the middle of the ceiling. Each crystal support is inserted with a water lizard oil candle. The whole room is decorated magnificently.

"You won't tell me that every room is so luxurious?" Asked Victor stoutly.

"Of course not... It's just a reception room. How can it be compared with the main hall?"

Victor, who had just breathed a sigh of relief, was suddenly black and almost fell on the floor.

How much does it cost?

"Honey, how is the silver moon manor better than the Marquis house of Wimbledon? Well... Certainly not. The Marquis house is built of white glaze rock. However, our silver moon manor is magnificent, beautiful and the top manor."

Elena didn't notice that Victor's heart was bleeding. She asked nervously and expectantly, "Mrs. Sophia will like silver moon manor, won't she? Honey?"

"Just to satisfy Sophia, you... Incredibly..." Victor kept his demeanor gnashing his teeth.

"Wow..."

Seeing that the host and hostess didn't pay attention to themselves at all, bertina finally cried.

"All right. What did the little guy do?" Asked Victor, calming his emotions.

Elena raised her eyebrows, stared at Victor and said angrily, "bertina is spoiled by you! Other attendants can lead the servants to clean the manor. Only bertina ran to the kitchen alone, stole blueberry juice and soiled her clothes. She is so unruly. What does Mrs. Sophia think of the silver moon manor? What do you think of me, Alice and Lilia?"

Victor was silent for a moment, pointed to the hourglass for most of the time and said, "you don't know I'm here. What are you doing here?"

Elena stared fiercely into Victor's eyes for a while, and finally laughed with a "puff", shook her head reluctantly, walked up to bertina, squatted down, took off the pillow on her head, took out the silk scarf, and gently wiped the snot and tears from Bell's face.

"It's the waiter's snack time. Go and clean the stables after eating. If you make any more mistakes, I'll let Mr. gunnel punish you severely!"

Bertina first gave Elena a hug, then saluted Victor, and then ran out of the room, "Dong, Dong, Dong" footsteps spread far away.

Elena turned her head and said, "Cornell, you can go to work."

The monkey militia nodded and left the guest room with light steps. Elena leaned her head on Victor's shoulder and whispered, "bell is so cute... Except Mr. wood, oh, it's GNER... No one can take her at silver moon manor except GNER."

"Honey, I want a daughter like bell."

"There will be." Victor patted Elena's slender hand and asked, "where's Lilia?"

"The study on the fifth floor, with Alice." Elena took Victor's arm, went to the stairs and said, "honey, I have a lot to deal with. Go up and find them yourself."

Victor nodded, followed the stairs and climbed to the fifth floor. Before he reached the door of the study, he heard a burst of warblers and swallows.

"Mrs. Sylvia's room must not be changed, and the goods regulations of other rooms cannot exceed the standards of Mrs. Sylvia's room, but they should be graded. The master bedrooms of Victor and Mrs. Sophia are arranged according to the standards of the Marquis..."

"Well, you make a list. I'll give you all the money you need. I'm afraid yeliucheng can't buy good things."

"Don't worry, yeliucheng sells all kinds of good things, as long as you have money..."

"By the way, there are delicious food..."

"This is no problem. Our Randall family chefs are first-class."

"Of course, there is no need to say the taste. The key is the ingredients! Rare ingredients can reflect the nobility of our Randall family!"

"Then let Jack get more game out of the swamp. For example, boat maggots are very good..."

"Boatman? It's disgusting... But it's really delicious. We should change its name. Well, swamp SHELLLESS clam, how about it?"

Wearing the same dress as Elena, Lilia knelt on the round stool with her white feet bare. Her plump hips and slender waist form an attractive curve. Alice sat next to her, her slender legs sticking out straight from under the round table, her face covered with wine red hair, and she didn't know how to manage it. Two people meet side by side, pointing on the sheepskin scroll, writing and drawing.

When did the two become so close?

Victor muttered in his heart, coughed and said, "what are you doing?"

"Sir, are you back?" Alice stood up in surprise and said, "I just wanted to ask you, what color does Mrs. Sophia like?"

"Uh... What color does she like? Is it important?"

"Very important!" Lilia put on her high-heeled shoes, pulled Victor to the side of the round table and sat down. She said, "we need to fill Mrs. Sophia's wardrobe with clothes and know what color she likes so that we can order it. You must know Mrs. Sophia's figure very well. Say it, say it, it takes time to cut and sew clothes!"

"Of course I know. I want to know more. How much did you spend to please Sophia?" Said Victor with a straight face.

"Not much. It's just 24000 gold sols. There may be 8000 gold sols in the back. We're going to change into crystal windows." Lilia said lightly.

24000 kinsol? Still? 20 alchemy militia, or 30 alchemy war mastiffs, or half alchemy dragon lizards, so gone?!

Victor's heart was like a knife and his ears were buzzing. He never thought that he had planned to knock on Sophia's bamboo pole. Lilia, a little financial fan, colluded with the Elena sisters and paid money to please Sophia without blinking.

"Do you know that Sophia will not live in silver moon manor for a long time. She and her people will live in Raven town!" Victor said bitterly, "24000 kinsol? Not much?"

Lilia skimmed her pink lips and said, "Victor, when you went to the king's capital, didn't you also take 80000 gold sols from the Marquis house? Where did we spend more than 40000 gold sols? Besides, this is to decorate the silver moon manor... By the way, I sent someone to decorate the Raven town."

"That's it." Alice nodded again and again, shook Victor's arm and said coquettishly, "honey, tell me what color Mrs. Sophia likes?"

Victor was vaguely familiar with the concentration on the two beautiful faces. Lilia and Alice looked like job seekers about to be interviewed, and Sophia was the examiner.

"In fact, Sophia doesn't care about clothes... Food... Or living environment. In short, spend less money... I want to say, there's no need... Don't stare at me... Well, just be happy."

Victor shook his head and walked out the door with his legs raised.

Once the three women are paranoid, it is difficult to change their thoughts, especially when they are anxious. Anyway, the money is also used in Yinyue manor. The fat water doesn't flow to outsiders' fields. I can only comfort myself in this way.

"How many solitary villas need crystal windows?"

"Let me see, among Mrs. Sophia's entourage, there are three knights and 11 trainee knights. Just install three villas."

Victor paused, turned back and asked, "Alice, what did you just say?"

"Install crystal windows."

"Not this, the previous sentence." Victor said gravely.

Alice looked at her husband in surprise and said, "the lady's entourage has three knights and 11 trainee knights."

"It's all right. You go on." Victor nodded expressionless, turned away from the room and closed the door.

"What happened to Victor?" Alice looked at Lilia inexplicably. Lilia shook her head. Suddenly, the door was pushed open, and Victor said, "decorate Nicole's Golden Oak manor as usual!" Then he closed the door heavily.

Alice and Lilia looked at each other, and then they talked happily.

——————

Sitting in the Lord's office, Victor was lost in thought.

The size of the barbarian was so large and the interests of the rock brick were so attractive that Victor's eyes were obscured, which made him ignore a fact: Sophia was not alone. She represented a force. The saber toothed tiger business group had 4 knights, 21 trainee knights and 600 elite soldiers, who were loyal to the Marquis Sophia. Their marriage relationship makes them have a natural influence on each other's episodes.

Behind the Elena sisters is the York family. Lilia's brother has the strength of silver knights, and the War Bear mercenaries are the core backbone of Randall family. Their marriage with Victor has the flavor of political marriage. There is no need to fear Sophia. However, the three close maidens were still in awe of the family mistress.

Elena and bertina fell in love with each other, but she punished bell. Alice and Lilia never dealt with each other, but they got together. Victor never thought that Lilia, a little financial fan, would be so generous. All they did was to impress Sophia.

If this is the case with Victor's beloved personal maid, what will happen to others?

Sylvia said that Victor has a strong desire to monopolize his partner, which is actually a threat. Her implication is: if you dare to refuse Sophia, I'll find a man to show you.

Victor can only admit, must admit, although he has no practical binding force on Gillian, Sylvia and Sophia, because they are high-ranking female knights. Sylvia can ensure this stable partnership, as long as victor accepts Sophia, but she doesn't explicitly tell Sophia's Knight what to do?

Legally, Victor is an independent Lord of Gambis, with autonomy, and does not listen to the king, while Sophia is a Marquis of the court and a vassal of the royal family. Sylvia wants to absorb Sophia, so she can only let the royal family take the initiative to deprive her of her title, and then use her marriage relationship to place her in Randall's collar. This operation is not difficult for Sylvia. She holds too many cards in her hand, but she will not directly canonize Sophia as the Lord of the York family, because Sylvia will never shake the ruling basis of the vassal system, that is, the vassal relationship.

Then Sophia's knights can only join Randall's collar.

Does the Randall family have a place as a knight? Will the family resist a silver lady and her knights?

Victor suddenly realized that if he didn't get Sylvia's favor and trust, when Sophia joined the York family, Sylvia would kill him. Now, Sylvia will definitely ask Sophia to marry her children. Only in this way can we ensure that Randall's collar is connected with the York family.

In fact, from the perspective of the Lord, Sylvia's idea is entirely a kind of goodwill. The addition of knights will strengthen the strength of Randall family. Victor doesn't mind these Knights joining the Randall family, but he must care about the views of his people, to be exact, whether the rental employment system can be carried out.

However, he was frustrated to find that the absorption of knights would lead to the collapse of the rental employment system. The root cause was the people's longing for knights and nobles. Unless he could immediately announce the existence of the alchemy tower, the rental employment system would have no political basis.

"Sylvia, baby, I'm going to disappoint you. I won't let Sophia fall. At least Sophia can't fall until the candle castle is built!" Victor thought to himself.

Just then, pro guard captain Gru knocked on the door and came in, bowed his head and said, "my Lord, the old man barrol is back. He wants to see you."
