Chapter 74： helper

"咚咚咚."

"Come in."

Raymond Knight walked into the room and bowed to salute: "Viscount Lord, Butler Yimon, and Raygo Knight have successfully arrived in Ice Rock City."

"Well, I know." Colin had just finished his first embrace of the Shire Knight, and his face was a little pale at this time.

"Let them settle down first, and then meet me in the study."

"Yes!"

After Raymond left, Colin looked at Charles, who was still not awake, and tried to command: "Get up, Charles, get up!"

However, Shire did not respond.

Colin frowned, and he didn't know if the first embrace ceremony just now was considered a success.

Moreover, he was shocked to find that his rank had actually been lowered!

Colin, who was originally a second-tier knight, was actually reduced to the first-tier after this first embrace ceremony.

I just don’t know if this reduction is temporary or permanent.

However, he was somewhat prepared for this.

The complete first embrace ceremony must not be without any cost.

Colin was very surprised to be able to create blood slaves at no cost before, if it weren't for the discovery that blood slaves could not continue to create the next generation of blood slaves.

Colin estimated that he could even create a kinship version of Resident Evil in this other world.

Originally wanted to wait for the Shire Knight to do further experiments when he woke up, but considering that Steward Yimon and Rego Knight were still waiting for them, they no longer delayed, got up and walked out of Shire's room.

"After the Shire Knight wakes up, let him come to the study to see me." Colin ordered the maid who was guarding the door.

"Yes."

All the way to the study, Colin just drank his mouth water, he saw Raymond come in, followed by the old housekeeper of the Angley family-Imon, and the family knight-Rego Morben.

"Master!"

"Master Viscount!"

"Haha, I finally brought you all here. Come on, sit down, sit down! I've worked hard all the way, what do I want to drink?"

"Just the coffee is ready."

Lei Ge knight touched his big bald head, hesitated for a moment, and followed Yimeng and said, "The same is true for me."

Colin smiled and glanced at Lei Ge. The other party's hesitation obviously fell in his eyes, so he ordered to the attendant at the door:

"Go and prepare two cups of coffee and a cup of ale."

"Yes!"

Then, Colin looked back at Rego: "If you want to drink, just say directly, I haven't seen you for a while, why are you polite to me?"

"Hey, thank you, Master Viscount!" Rego grinned, his ugly face turned into a chrysanthemum.

Leigo is the brother of Raymond. These two brothers of the Murban family became wandering knights because of the family's decline. Later, they became loyal to Baron Anglia and had a very good relationship with Colin.

Especially Rego, this tall and strong man has outstanding martial arts talents. When Baron Angley was not at home, he used to be Colin's martial arts teacher.

Therefore, at this moment, when Colin saw this old acquaintance, although he was no longer the boy, he still felt kind instinctively.

At this time, the three in the study, Yimen, Rego, and Leimen, can be said to be the core team of the Angley family.

As for the members of the Anglia family's collateral line, they are not outstanding people, and Colin will only serve them with good food and drink, and give them some simple things to do without being overly dependent.

Maybe when the Shire Knight wakes up, he can join this inner circle.

The waiter soon brought coffee and ale, Colin exchanged a few words with everyone, and then turned to the topic.

"Imon, I need you to take over the daily affairs of the territory immediately. In addition, I will find a few candidates for the clerk and tax officer, make a list and give it to me. I will finalize and assign it to each town."

"Yes!"

"Although the family territory has expanded a lot this time, the financial situation of the family may go through a difficult period.

Furthermore, Bingyan City has just been ransacked by a troll, and I need to recuperate, and I don’t want to increase taxes at this time.

Therefore, in addition to the necessary daily expenses, there must be no extravagance, and everything is simple. "

"Yes, sir. You are really a wise and merciful lord!" Butler Yimeng said with satisfaction.

But the old butler thought for a while, and still asked: "But, sir, do you want to renovate the castle you live in now? After all, the things here are left by the Su Duo family..."

"No, I don't care about this." Colin waved his hand.

Yimeng also suggested: "Should you change the color of the outer wall of the castle? This will not cost much, but it will show a new look."

Colin thought for a while, and thought this idea was a good idea.

It doesn't cost much to change the skin of the castle, but it can let the citizens know that there is already a new owner.

"Yes. Then change to red. Is this dyeing material easy to get?"

Colin felt that as a blood clan, red should be regarded as his lucky color.

"Red..." The old butler thought for a while and nodded, "Convenient. The coastal area in the south of the empire produces a dye derived from coral, which can dye the outer walls of the castle very well. The price is not expensive."

"Very good, then do it!"

"Yes, sir." The old butler nodded, and then asked again, "Does the castle need a name change?"

"Name?" Colin rubbed his chin.

He suddenly realized that he hadn't noticed the name of this Sudor family castle.

However, this is not important anymore.

"It's called Red Fort." Colin, a ghost, made the decision immediately.

Yimeng's mouth twitched, really speechless about the name.

The old and gray castle of the Angley family was called Greycastle, and the old housekeeper was very resentful.

Unexpectedly, there is now another Red Fort...

Think about the names of other people's castles, Frostmoon Castle, Bailu Castle, Fontaine Castle... Only this can reflect the cultivation of an elegant nobleman!

"Don't you think about it anymore?" Yimeng suggested carefully.

"Well? Isn't the name Red Fort good?" Colin blinked, then looked at Brother Moben.

Raymond knight nodded immediately, this knight always obeyed Colin.

And Rego Knight also nodded wildly: "I think this name is very good!"

Yimeng glanced at Lei Ge and found that the expression on the face of this idiot did not seem to be fake, it seemed that he really liked the name.

For the sake of the family style, the Viscount-sama must first try to stay away from these two unlearned guys...

The old butler thought to himself.

"Okay, that's it." Colin immediately decided on the name of the castle.

He really can't think of any better names.

Yimeng sighed secretly, and suddenly realized that there is still a long way to go to improve the style of the Angley family.

"Oh yes, how about changing the family crest?" Colin suddenly proposed again.

The original roaring white bear badge from the Anglia family Colin didn't like it very much, and he had some thoughts about the new badge in his heart.

Yimeng butler reminded: "Master, if you change the family crest, you need to get the consent of the Imperial Senate."

"Okay, then go through the process." Colin replied casually.

"But, you have to go through the process of the Senate, cough cough, you know what you know..."

Colin was stunned, only then did he realize what Yimon meant.

actually want to pay a bribe!

Looking through the memories of his predecessor, Colin really discovered that the Senate of this empire was really like this bird.

No money, basically nothing can be done!

Especially small families like the Anglia family do not bleed a lot. It is estimated that the elders in the Senate will not look at them directly.

"Forget it, let's talk about it later!"

Colin will not give money now, his current money can be of great use.

Army!

The first priority is to raise money to build an army!
