"Tell Madam, someone outside asked to see him, he said..."

When Caroline and Marrowback were discussing how to deal with the new lord, a servant informed that someone was asking to see him at the gate of the castle.

"what did he say?"

"He said...he is the new City Lord of Hongye City!"

The servant said cautiously.

Caroline turned pale, the new city lord finally came.

"Ask him to come in... No, let's go out to meet him."

...

"This castle looks okay, but the windows are a bit small, and the lighting may not be enough..."

Zhang Feng stood at the gate of the castle and commented on the castle in his heart. A servant stood respectfully not far from him.

Many people already knew the news that Baron Charles's title of nobility was bought. Since Zhang Feng took out the medal of nobility, it seems likely that his status would not be false, and the servants would not dare to surpass it.

crunch~

The gate of the castle opened slowly, and a beautiful figure came into view first.

A simple and spacious white fine linen robe covered her tall figure, and her blond hair rolled up high looked very dignified and noble. Her face was serious and cold, but the few strands of curly hair hanging from her temples added a touch of natural beauty to her. She is so charming that she doesn't look like a stranger.

But what attracted Zhang Feng the most was her pair of azure blue eyes, clear and pure, like a pool of clear spring, which made people want to sink involuntarily.

"gentlemen?"

It wasn't until Caroline's delicate earlobes turned slightly pink that Zhang Feng realized it. He quickly looked away and coughed twice to relieve the embarrassment.

"Ahem, well, hello, my name is Zhang Feng, I just bought the title of Charles, and I will be the new city lord of Hongye City in the future, should it be all right?"

Zhang Feng took out the Medal of Nobility that originally belonged to Baron Charles, and a lot of contracts.

"No problem at all."

The medal is real, and the contract is also real, and Caroline has no right to deny it.

"I have seen the Lord City Lord."

"I have seen the Lord City Lord."

The two knights behind Caroline knelt on one knee to meet the new city lord.

Only then did Zhang Feng realize that there were two other people behind him.

The two knights are tall, they seem to be a head taller than Zhang Feng, and they are estimated to be 1.9 meters. They are wearing silver armor, helmets, and swords around their waists. sense.

The three of them were secretly observing the strangely dressed new city lord.

"Hi, everyone, get up."

Zhang Feng quickly and politely helped the two of them up.

But his small move surprised everyone present.

Marlowe got up quickly without waiting for Zhang Feng's help. Baker was a little bit late, but he also got up quickly. They never thought that a nobleman could personally help them!

After all, the knight is just a high-level commoner, and they are two different classes from the nobles. The arrogance of the nobles is engraved in their bones. This is the first time they have seen a noble like Zhang Feng, and they were at a loss for a while. .

Caroline's eyes lit up, and Zhang Feng's small gesture made Caroline feel that the new city owner might not be so difficult to get along with.

"From today onwards, I will be the lord of Hongye City. I hope we can cooperate happily in the future."

Zhang Feng quickly entered the state, isn't he a city lord, we are also college students in the new century, standing on the shoulders of countless giants, can't we be a city lord?

"My lord, my name is Marlowe, and I am the leader of the Knights of Hongye City."

Marlowe took off the knight's helmet, revealing a weathered face.

"My lord, my name is Baker, and Marlowe is my boss!"

Baker also took off his helmet. He had a horrible scar on his face, but his expression was very shy.

Zhang Feng was very satisfied with the two of them. Most people in the city were thin and short. Fortunately, his knight was not.

Seeing that both of them had introduced themselves, Zhang Feng looked at Caroline.

Caroline bit her lip, and said in a somewhat uneasy tone:

"My lord, my name is Caroline... yes, I am the wife of the late Baron Charles..."

It turned out to be the former baroness!

After knowing Caroline's identity, Zhang Feng looked away calmly. After all, she is the widow of the former city lord.

"Please come in."

Caroline, with an unnatural expression, led Zhang Feng and two knights into the castle.

She wanted to take Zhang Feng to visit the castle first. After all, the castle is very large. It is not only the living place of nobles and knights, but also the last fortress to defend against the enemy. It is a building with both military and civilian functions.

But Zhang Feng temporarily refused. He learned from Pan Xi that the current situation in Hongye City seems to be not very good, so he needs to find out first.

"Putting aside other things first, I want to understand the current situation of Hongye City first."

Zhang Feng sat at the main seat in the hall, listening to Knight Marlowe's report on the current situation of Hongye City.

"Red Leaf City doesn't have much food right now. Even with the wheat that will be harvested soon, based on the current population of 1,321 people in Hongye City, it can last for a month at most..."

"Almost all the people in the city hall have left. They are all members of Charles' team. Charles is gone, and they all left. Not only that, they also took a lot of supplies..."

"However, these people also took some of the servants away, which can be regarded as reducing some of our Hongye City's expenses in a disguised form. This is the only good news..."

Marlowe shrugged with a wry smile.

Originally, this kind of thing should be reported by the city hall, but now there are no people, so Marlowe can only come to play a cameo.

After listening to Marlowe's narration, Zhang Feng realized that the trouble in Hongye City was bigger than he imagined.

He has already learned that the winter in this world is extremely difficult. Every winter, some people will die, either from freezing to death or from starvation. This is still the case when there is food in storage. Now that the grain depots are empty, it is even more difficult.

But since he is already the lord of Hongye City, Zhang Feng feels obliged to make his people live a good life.

"Baron Charles should have left some relic property or something during his lifetime, right? It's mine now, right?"

Zhang Feng asked suddenly.

If Charles had left a small treasury or something, it might be able to relieve the urgent need. He looked at Caroline, who had been standing beside her without speaking.

Caroline's mood, which had finally calmed down, fluctuated again in an instant. She bit her lip lightly, lowered her head, and didn't know how to answer. For a while, her earlobe was red to the root of her ear, until her little face was reddened, but she couldn't say a word. Unable to speak.

Asking you a question, you always blush with a hammer! Can we still have a good communication!

Zhang Feng complained wildly in his heart.

Suddenly, Zhang Feng was taken aback, and then his face showed ecstasy, but he immediately covered it up. The other three people lowered their eyes and didn't notice the change in Zhang Feng's expression.

The door in Zhang Feng's mind opened!

"Does that mean I can go back?"

If he could really go back, Zhang Feng would not be willing to stay in this backward and ignorant era. Even if he is a nobleman now, isn’t modern food delicious, isn’t the Internet delicious?

"Ahem, that's all for today. If you discuss it again, I'll go home first."

Zhang Feng didn't need their consent, so he just ran away. After all, these three people knew each other. If he didn't go back after the experiment, and some unexplainable situation appeared, it would be very troublesome. He didn't want to expose his secret. Or his own big house is reliable.

"My lord..."

Seeing Zhang Feng leaving in a hurry, Caroline's face turned pale instantly.

Her own hesitation just now seemed to have angered the city lord!

In any case, Zhang Feng is now the supreme leader of Hongye City. If Hongye City is to survive the difficulties, the city owner is the most important.

"How can this be good..."
