Lance returned to Gollur Ridge, and everything seemed to be back to its usual appearance.
But there seems to be something wrong!
Lance sat in the study, at the desk that belonged to him, glanced at Fiona, who was squatting alone in the corner reading a book.
No, the reason has nothing to do with this girl. Fiona has always been quiet. Lance can treat her like air.
Lance looked to the right again. The cabinet originally used to display Sir Raven's collection had been removed by Lance's orders and replaced with a table that was one size smaller than Lance's desk. Layla, dressed in maid outfit, was lying on the desk, carefully stating the documents Lance gave her. The linen hair was softly curled on the desk, and the rays of sunshine sprinkled in the window made the girl's expression look particularly peaceful...
After accidentally taking a few more glances, Lance quickly stopped because the cold gaze on the other side had already made the coldness on his neck feel cold.
It seems that it is not because of Layla. Lance threw away the quill in his hand, tilted his head comfortably on the chair, and raised his heel. With the help of Layla and Fiona, the pile of documents on Lance's table had disappeared, and he could now comfortably rest his feet on the table, and there was a large area of spare space.
Could it be that I am too idle and I am not used to it?
Don’t say, Lance suddenly realized that this is the reason. You said you always want to be lazy when you are busy, but there is really nothing to do. In fact, it is quite boring, especially when others have something to do but only you do nothing.
When Lance thought about this, he simply opened his system panel and began to look at the tasks inside.
The tasks in the Demon Lord system have been a long time since they were done. Because completing internal buildings and projects is as prestigious as those of projects, Lance is too lazy to do those scattered tasks. Most of the system tasks are triggered instantly when they encounter an event, and the rewards they receive are generally not high (except for the cross-level task of Shui Jiao that time).
However, since he was free, Lance began to consider whether to take advantage of this to clear the tasks. The most important thing is that his system points are suspended at 978 points, which is not up or down at the distance of 1,000. This is really entangled. Lance decided to find a few tasks to do it quickly, upgrade his lord level, and use the boring time now.
He clicked into the task panel and looked at the list.
As mentioned before, in the task panel, most tasks are instant. If the task exceeds the completion time limit, it is considered to be abandoned actively and will automatically disappear from the panel after failure. Those remaining long-term tasks are generally very difficult or extremely troublesome.
Lance looked at it and now there seemed to be the following items that suit him.
【Task】Go to fish! (Unfinished)
Mission description: You are so idle that you feel so tired, so go fishing!
Mission time limit: Until your egg doesn't hurt anymore.
【Task】Make a delicious egg bread rice! (Unfinished)
Task description: You are so tired of your spare time, let’s make a delicious egg bread rice to soothe your mood!
Mission time limit: Until your egg doesn't hurt anymore.
[Task] Hold a grand banquet! (Unfinished)
Task description: You are so tired that you might as well hold a grand banquet so that everyone can enjoy the happy time.
Mission time limit: Until your egg doesn't hurt anymore.
【Task】Ask a lady to dance a dance! (Unfinished)
Mission description: You are my little apple, just like the most beautiful cloud in the sky.
Mission time limit: Must be at night dance.
Lance looked at all these tasks carefully. Although he was not satisfied with the system's evaluation of his idleness, if these four tasks were completed together, Lance lacked 22 system points.
Lance took off his feet on the table and stood up from the chair very simply. He tidied up his coat and walked straight out. Before he could go out, he found that a tail had already followed behind him.
Needless to say, there is only one person who will do this. For Fiona, the daughter of Duke, Lance, really doesn't know how to deal with it. Not to mention that I don't understand what this girl is thinking all day long. Just because she keeps following her, Lance feels a headache. It feels like a bomb that explodes as soon as it appears. Who is in the mood to wear this thing to wander around?
Lance really had no choice. After all, the Talonia brothers and sisters helped him in dealing with Earl Dupan, and Lance agreed to Ofan to take care of them before the Duke sent someone to pick them up, so most of the time he could only turn a blind eye - as long as the other party did not follow up in the bathhouse and toilet, or simply touched his bed at night.
By the way, the last little tail above was not something Lance said. He almost had to be the duke's son-in-law. Fortunately, he reacted in time, but this kind of thing that seems enviable but is actually anxious is not mentioned.
After Lance went out, he prepared a ground dragon car and went to the market to find Mosen.
Recently, Gululing has returned to stability again due to the reopening of the trade route. Lance has remained unmoved, and it has been amazing to move. It has given the merchants a full impression that they are all smart people and well-informed people, so they will naturally not miss the news of the death of the Count.
This is in the ears of others. Oh, the Count Du Peng robbed himself and robbed merchants for his own benefit. However, when he heard the wise merchants of Guruling, he became a little funny. After all, they knew very well who the Count Du Peng was against, and the county magistrate wanted him to die, he died. No matter whether there was a coincidence or the same sentence, whether you believe it or not, I believe it anyway. No matter whether you accept it or not, I believe it anyway. No matter whether you accept it or not, I accept it anyway.
So during this period, the merchants were surprisingly obedient. Even the complaints about Lance selling uncultivated wasteland to them disappeared at the beginning. Of course, half of this was that they did take the benefits of the county magistrate. As the saying goes, they made a fortune in the Earl Ridge of Dupeng, and all the things were sold at a fair price to the merchants. Moreover, now Talma has dug up the gold mine in Feronte County. Lance has transported a lot of gold back to Guru Ridge every day. The merchants stole the head and wanted to take over the order for selling precious metals.
The person sent by Lance to discuss details with the merchants was Mosen. No matter what, Mosen's current title of Minister of Finance of Guruling is well known among the people and the merchants.
So it was not difficult for Lance to find Morson. He just caught someone in the market and asked.
When Lance led the crowd to approach, Mosen was bargaining with the merchants, arguing about one or two cents of profits. Although Lance himself was not very concerned about the numbers and amounts, as long as he ensured that the big head would not make any mistakes, Mosen was a righteous person who was always up to the point of making a fuss. However, because of this, Lance was very relieved to hand over the content of the business to him.
When Mosen saw Lance, he thought he was here to ask about the progress of the gold mines. He was about to look through the notes and report to Lance, but was interrupted by the latter's hand.
Lance said to Moson: "Since I have entrusted this to you, you will be fully responsible. Then you just need to tell me one result."
After such a long time, Mosen has fully proved his ability and credibility, and Lance can boldly let him play his role.
Mosen heard the trust in Lance's tone, but he was moved inside, but he didn't show it on his face. He just nodded and exposed the topic: "So what instructions does the county magistrate have?"
"Oh, by the way," Lance remembered what he was doing. He said, "Mosen, I'm going to hold a grand banquet. You go and help me find the merchants to ask for supplies, and hire me a group of people."
After saying this, Mosen had no time to express his opinion, but the merchant who had just bargained with him trembled first. When he heard the three words "want supplies" in Lance's words, he thought it was the county magistrate who could not hold back and wanted to cheat them: "Well, county magistrate, how much goods do you want, we may not have much inventory."
Lance didn't know the crooked story of these petty businessmen, and cursed angrily: "I didn't say I wouldn't give you money. Why are you doing with your pockets? Are you afraid that I will lose my debt?"
"Okay, that's OK, you're the final word." When the merchant heard that he had money, his face of sorrow disappeared just now. He changed into a flattering face. He was scolded, and it was no big deal compared to the golden coins flowing into his pocket.
After sending the snobbish businessman out, Mosen asked Lance for details: "Mr. County Master, how big is your banquet?"
“The whole county.”
"The whole county?" Mosen was a little confused about what Lance meant.
"I want the whole county to have a carnival, and anyone who wants to participate can participate."
Isn't this a bit whimsical? And if you really hold such an event, the money spent will definitely be like water. Mosen couldn't help but sigh. This lord is good for everything, but he just thinks that sometimes he is too imaginative and take it for granted.
However, although I don’t understand the reason why Lance held the banquet, I witnessed many miracles created by the county governor. Even Mosen had an almost blind trust in this young man who was dozens of years younger than him. As long as the county governor did something, he must have his hidden deep meaning.
In this way, after considering the possibility, Mosen agreed. In addition to spending money, this plan was not difficult. Moreover, the county governor has made a fortune recently. It is more than enough to use this money to hold a banquet.
"Mr. County Master, I just don't know where such a big banquet will be held?" Seeing Lance open his mouth and blurted out the square, Mosen quickly vetoed: "If it is to calculate the whole county, the square is far from enough, and at least it must be able to accommodate tens of thousands of people."
After Mosen said this, he began to think about it first.
Isn’t there a newly built death arena in Gulu Ridge?
Because it is a B-class building, it covers a huge area and is also a large building that Edgeil has worked hard to complete. If Lance hadn't been busy dealing with the matter of Earl Du Peng before, this building would have been opened long ago, and it would have been a grand opening ceremony - wouldn't this be an opportunity to kill two birds with one stone?
Lance looked at Morson, who nodded intentionally: "I get it."
If it is a big arena, it will be enough to accommodate so many people. It is nothing to hold a banquet. Lance also gave a lot of suggestions, such as bonfires and fireworks that need to be raised on the day of the banquet. As for wine and food, just come to the banquet to be full.
"These are no problem, but the erotic dance troupe you mentioned in the end is not there."
"It's okay, tell Mavie about this and ask him to find it for me."
Morson agreed, and Lance went to meet Heigang and Aigeel in turn, discussing the issue of public security rotation on the day of the banquet, as well as some small props that add to the atmosphere.
So, not long after, most people in Gululing knew one thing-
The county magistrate is going to hold a carnival!
Chapter completed!
