Chapter 396: Set up a branch base

The queen was surrounded by a large group of ministers, who were arguing with each other about military and financial matters, and Robb didn't bother to listen carefully.

The queen was also busy with a lot of government affairs, not caring about the ministers around her at all.

Then the queen raised her head from a pile of files. Seeing that Robb was coming, her expression didn't change at all. She just said lightly, "here you are. Well, I'm very busy here. Let's talk about it as soon as possible."

Except for the lazy guy in Westwind Town, the queen didn't like to waste her time chatting with any man in the world. She even treated Robb Smith in the same way. She pretended to be businesslike and said to Robb, "I have received a detailed report about the battle last night. Your performance in the battle has been reported by the subordinates of Madeleine."Alll latest novels at novelhall.com

Speaking of this, she glanced at Madeleine and said in a low voice, "generally speaking, the boss will take the credit of his subordinate, but Robb Smith's credit was exaggerated by the black eart knight. He even wanted to give his credit to Robb Smith. Isnt it the reason why Madeleine is here?"

Madeleine whistled and looked at the ceiling. "I don't know about it. I know nothing!"

The queen shook her head. She didn't want to argue with her bestie about such a trifle. She turned around and said to Robb, "in this war, you nimbly used the newly made magic items. You have made a great contribution to repel the ten thousand monsters with one thousand. Now I decide to appoint you as a baron!"

"Wow!" The ministers next to him exclaimed at the same time, "why did he get that title at such a young age?"

Madeleine was overjoyed. She turned to the ministers and shouted, "what's wrong? He has made a great contribution. Can't he be a baron? Why do you have so many opinions?"

Sweat broke out on the ministers' faces. "No, no, no, No. Its nothing."

Ignoring the fight between the ministers and her friend, the queen continued to speak to Robb with a straight face, "you invented these new magic items. After you invented them, have you been thinking about how to use them in actual combat?"

Robb shook his head and said, "No. before I invented them, I first wanted a magic item with this function, so I invented them according to the function I wanted."

That was to say, it was about one hundred and fifty miles away from the north of Westwind Town.

Madeleine immediately protested, Elizabeth, Stone Canyon is not a good place, right? It's remote and desolate, and the people there ran to Westwind Town last year. Now it's almost a deserted land. What's the use of giving Robb Smith a deserted land? He doesn't even have a citizen, and he can't even find someone to collect tax."

But this time, the queen was not easily persuaded by her bestie. She shook her head calmly and said, "no, there are new residents in the stone canyon now. A group of residents have moved from the Crystal Canyon to settle there. Although there are not many people, there are still hundreds of people. It's appropriate to let a baron manage it."

"No, that place is too broken. Give him a closer place." Madeleine continued, "I think Nanli Village is a good village. There are many plains and fertile land, which is suitable for planting."

The queen cast a sidelong glance at Madeleine and didn't know whether she should laugh or cry. "Robb Smith, which one do you want from the Stone Canyon or Nanli Village?"

Robb shrugged and said, "only children can make a choice. Of course, as an adult... All of them!"

Madeleine was speechless

The queen was rendered speechless

After a few seconds, the queen said crossly, "you can only choose one!"

"Well, then Ill choose one." Robb whispered, "but sooner or later, you will regret that you didn't give me two together."

"What?" The queen raised her voice, "what are you talking about? I didn't hear you clearly."

"I didn't say anything." Robb smiled and said, "then I'll choose the stone canyon."
