Chapter 13 The Invitation of the Red Maple Baron 1
(The author's section shows that the operation exception has been resolved, and now the update is restored! Uploading is accelerated! Thank you for your continuous support during the two days!!)
At the Masters Club of the Rock City, Donald has been in the library for three days. During these three days, he hastily solved physiological problems such as eating, and then used meditation instead of sleep, recording as much knowledge in the collection as possible.
Among them, most of them are about world history, the strength of various professions, and the introductions to the gods.
In just three days, Donald's understanding of this world is more than his seventeen years of memory. After all, Donald was just a down-and-out aristocratic young man, not a profession. How could he see these precious collections of books exclusive to the wizards?
Early in the morning of the fourth day, with the teacher Messel's concern, Donald finally moved his slightly sore shoulders and walked out of the library with a little regret in satisfaction. Donald wanted to pack all the books in it.
"It's a pity that time is limited. Today I need to accept the two manors I bought, otherwise I really want to stay here forever."
After taking over the manor, he had many things to deal with by himself. He probably didn't have much time to return to the mage club in the future, so he seized these three days, ignored and memorized the spells and spells that other apprentices watched, but tried to absorb as much knowledge as possible to lay a solid foundation for the future.
Anyway, with the Book of Truth in hand, he will not be as powerful as those apprentices in the face of danger.
After saying goodbye to the teacher who loved him very much, Messel and the other two mages, and greeted the waiter William, Donald left the mage club.
As expected, the housekeeper Kede was worried about his young master, but he needed to take care of his affairs at home, so he took turns to hold Clinton and the other three and the coachman to wait outside the club every day. After Donald came out, they immediately met him.
"Go to the Noble Parliament Management Office!"
Without saying anything, Donald got in the car and ordered the coachman to open the way.
After seeing Sir Jesse again, the other party immediately stepped forward to greet him enthusiastically.
"Donald, you are here at the right time! The survey results have been completed. Now, as long as you sign the contract, the two manors will officially belong to you! I will send someone to invite the goddess' priest!"
When Donald heard this, he couldn't care about the aristocratic style and laughed happily. At this time, he found that the other party's somewhat twisted posture and fancy dress seemed to be much more pleasing to the eyes.
"Thank you so much, Jesse! When the manor is built, you will definitely be the first guest I invite!"
Such a title proves that the two people have made initial friendships for friends. Generally, nobles call each other's titles or titles when they meet.
For the aristocrats' feudalism, allegiance, and change of ownership of property such as manors, they all need to be at least under the witness of high positions such as upper-class nobles, royal representatives or servants of God. It is not necessary to buy a manor such as this. It is just that Sir Jesse, who is the supervisor, is not qualified to witness. In this case, the practice of general local aristocrats is mostly to invite local prestigious lords or a clergy from the church to testify.
Unlike other countries on the mainland, the Kingdom of Celtic is currently a nation of one god who believes in, from monarchs to subjects, only the Goddess of Agriculture is the Goddess of Agriculture, a true god. Of course, there are also many people who are believers or unbelievers. The Goddess of Agriculture is a loving and tolerant true god. They will not regard you as a heretic just because you don’t believe in her.
As a church of the goddess of agriculture that can spread faith in the kingdom, its structure is relatively loose compared to the churches of the mainland countries where the belief disputes are fierce, and the church does not have much ambitions for secular power. This is the biggest reason why the Celtic royal family can accept the goddess of agriculture.
You should know that the Celtic royal family, who was once a subordinate of Banna, the ancient magic empire, had a bad impression of the Church of Gods that caused the collapse and division of their great empire.
After a meal, a young priest from the Temple of the Goddess of Agriculture in the city was led by waiters.
"Jesse, what else do you have to come to me? Tell me quickly. The Bishop and the Academic Affairs Officer ask me to do it!"
This clergyman was a handsome young man, but he spoke very proudly, and he knew at a glance that he must have a noble birth.
However, he does have the capital of pride. Although he is young, he is now an assistant deacon under the bishop of the temple, and his status is much higher than that of ordinary local nobles.
This person is said to be the one who came down to the king to gilt, but he is much better than Jesse, who is an illegitimate son. He can come to witness this manor transaction, which is why he has a good relationship with Sir Jesse.
"Don't worry, I'll introduce you to you. This is the future Knight of Melina, and this time he bought the manor. Donald, this is Martin, my friend when I was in the capital, the only son of the Marquis of the Palace of Shadi, and now the assistant deacon of the Bishop of the Stone City Temple!"
"I'm honored to see you!"
Donald first salutes, and he did not need to be humble to the heir of a court marquis, but the other party is a member of the church, so he must maintain considerable respect.
Originally, the Pastor Martin looked down on a country noble like Donald, and the identity of the hereditary knight could barely make him pay attention to it, but the other party had not officially obtained the title, so it is still unknown whether he could succeed. But suddenly he saw the blank badge on the other party, and he couldn't help but look at it, and he changed into a warm smile at that time.
"Knight Donald is so young and promising. I don't know that you are the apprentice of that mage. I have seen many mages here in the Stone City when I followed the Bishop!"
"What? Donald, you are a mage apprentice?"
Jesse, who didn't know much about the mage system, never noticed that Donald had an extra badge on his body when he came to him the second time. Donald didn't explain it either.
Pastor Martin smiled and said:
"Jesse, you are still as confused as before! Didn't you see that Knight Donald has the badge of a formal mage apprentice?"
Ordinary people can't fake this thing. If they can imitate it, they can already obtain real badges through tests, and there is no need to fake it.
Donald replied:
"You don't have to be surprised, Jesse, I just obtained the official apprenticeship a few days ago. My teacher is Master Messel!"
Martin was shocked:
"Is it the only silver wizard in North County, Master Messel, the alchemist?"
"Yes, it's my luck to be able to learn from Teacher Messel!"
Martin and Jesse couldn't help but take a breath together, looking at Donald with full envy. Martin was better. The White Bishop he followed was in charge of the academic affairs of a county and was also a silver-level strongman, so he only attached importance to Donald's identity. Jesse was extremely envious of Donald's good luck. Fortunately, he also knew himself and did not turn this envy into jealousy. Instead, he affirmed in his heart the decision to make every effort to make the other party's decision in the future.
The process of signing the contract ended soon. Under the witness of the young priest Martin, the priest of the young goddess of agriculture, Donald and Sir Jesse signed a contract with the Meliner family on behalf of the royal family. Martin also signed a name on the position of witness. There are spells and divine techniques in this world to identify the authenticity, so there is no need to worry about anyone forging documents and contracts.
During this period, Donald was also worried that his book of truth would be discovered by the goddess' pastor. However, after feeling his anxious book of truth, the spirit of the spirit of the book of truth was transmitted completely. It turned out that as long as it was not the clone of the true God, or the body thoughts of the believer, even the professionals with high strength would not discover the existence of the Book of Truth, which is a higher artifact. Including the servants of God and the professions like the priests.
At this point, the lands of these two manors were officially owned by Donald. As long as he did not violate the laws of the kingdom and disobeyed the gods, even His Majesty the King had no right to take them away.
After Donald symbolically gave him Fifty Kingsol as a goddess's offering, Martin left happily and satisfied. Before leaving, he specially invited Donald. Naturally, Donald would not refuse and proposed to invite him to the banquet after the manor was built. Then, after saying goodbye to Sir Jesse, Donald drove out of the Rock City with his own contract and returned to the direction of Red Maple Town.
When passing by Red Maple Town, Donald suddenly ordered the coachman:
"Go back to town to take over the butler, and then turn around here, let's go to the manor to have a look!"
"Okay, lord!"
The coachman responded, and a whip sounded a whip in his hand. He drove the carriage back to the old house of Merina's house. After picking up the butler on board, he rushed to the northwest of the town along the avenue outside Hongfeng Town.
Donald's two manors are located in the northwest of Red Maple Town, bordering the outer periphery of the Green Cloak Forest, and were once a large piece of wasteland under the lord.
The carriage was not in the town, and in just over a dozen minutes, I rushed directly from outside the town to the nearest small manor.
Looking at the scene in front of him, Donald nodded, quite satisfied.
The housekeeper Ke De grabbed a handful of soil and said excitedly to his young master:
"Young Master, although the small manor is overgrown with weeds and has no one to take care of for many years, the soil is still very good, which is almost the same as the farmland near Hongfeng Town. As long as you plant crops and take care of them carefully, you will definitely get a bumper harvest next year!"
"Yes! Master, the one in my family also planted acre of barley for the Lord in the town. The harvest this year is pretty good. Look at the land here, it is better than the farmland of the Lord!"
The coachman also got out of the car and observed the land of the small manor, and came up with the result that made the butler even happier.
Donald was not very worried about the quality of the land, and he had his own way to gain weight. The only thing he needed to consider now is safety. According to Sir Jesse, the reason why several previous owners chose to give up this fertile small manor and let the royal family take it back at a low price was because the monsters in the forest not far away often came to harm crops and scare away employees.
"It seems that it needs to be built here!"
Donald, who has the big cheating tool of Book of Truth, is not worried about building a manor to prevent monsters.
Unfortunately, all the buildings attached to the manor were demolished by the previous owners to save some cost. The only thing left for Donald was an old wooden house with a big hole on the roof. Fortunately, the road signs and fences in the manor area were not demolished together, which also saved Sir Jesse's many troubles during investigation. Otherwise, the manor would not be in Donald's hands now!
