Age of Empires From Scratch Chapter 108

  Chapter 108 The arrangement is clear

  Although Her Highness the Princess led her around the corridor for a long time, she finally came to the Etiquette Officer.

  The next question comes, who should he call?

   Walking into the spacious front hall of the etiquette department, David just looked around, and before he had time to ask, someone greeted him: "My lord baron, what can I do?"

   "I'm Baron David Glamorgan, His Majesty the King asked me to come here to find the ceremonial officer."

  David hadn't finished speaking, the person who was asking the question already understood why David came: "It turned out to be Lord Baron Glamorgan. Please follow me, and I will take you to see the ceremonial officer who is in charge of assisting you."

   "Oh, sorry to trouble you."

   "Your Majesty Baron, you are welcome."

  Following the middle-aged man in court uniform, he was soon led to a lounge: "Master Baron, please wait a moment, I will go and inform the ceremonial officer to come and report to you."

   After expressing his thanks again, David waited quietly and looked at the lounge by the way.

  The lounge is not big, but it is simple but reveals luxury—every piece of furniture is decorated with gold or gemstones, and the luxurious atmosphere cannot be concealed at all.

   Didn't wait long, David didn't even finish looking at the lounge, the door was opened again, and a young etiquette officer in court uniform who looked about twenty years old was in front of him.

   "Nice to meet you, Lord Baron Glamorgan. I will be the ceremonial officer in charge of your etiquette and related affairs for the next period of time. My name is Elias Parker."

"Hello, nice to meet you." David carefully looked at the young etiquette officer in front of him. He could sense a bit of unnaturalness from the other person's expression. It seemed that the assistant taught him this job. This young etiquette officer Not willing to take over.

   After thinking about it for a while, I can understand the reason: in the eyes of the people in the capital, David is a small lord from the countryside. Although inexplicably won the favor of His Majesty the King, he was conferred the title of baron, and jumped from a commoner to a real noble class.

  But where is Cold Winter Town? The most remote place in the Kingdom of Tilan is further north than the original border town of Iron Tree Castle. It is a newly developed territory and the latest frontier of the Kingdom of Tilan. It can be predicted that the living environment there will not be so good.

  The actual situation is similar to what David guessed. The ceremonial officers have read the relevant documents. They have just designed several family crests for Baron Glamorgan.

  Many ceremonial officials didn't care that the town of Rinwinter had a population of several hundred in such a short period of time after its establishment, nor did they care about any newly discovered high-yielding crops. They all noticed one thing: Rinwinter Town is very cold, and the winter is particularly long.

  Even if winter is over now, but they will stay in that kind of place for a whole year, winter is unavoidable at all.

  Poor living conditions, a young rural aristocrat with no background as a commoner, what the **** is this job?

  So any etiquette officer with some background and some influence is unwilling to take this job, and finally throws this job to the person who is the most inconspicuous, has the least background, and is usually only bullied by everyone.

  Elias Parker thus became the ceremonial officer responsible for instructing Baron David Glamorgan on various aristocratic etiquette and corresponding affairs.

"Lord Baron, do you know anything about the next thing to deal with?" Since this job is mandatory, Elias Parker has no right to refuse. Now he can only do his best to complete the job and strive for an early The year passed.

  No matter what, being able to guide and assist a new nobleman will add a lot of color to his work resume, and maybe he can use this to get rid of the embarrassing situation now.

"not very clear."

   Elias was not surprised by David's answer. Everyone has read David's information. This is the most authentic countryman. It is impossible to expect him to know what to do after becoming a nobleman.

"According to the normal process, the baron needs to design the family crest... This has been completed, and then go to the Kingdom Archives to complete the personal file." Speaking of this, Elias signaled David to leave here with him, and stepped aside The position of the gate, wait for David to go out before following: "If the Baron has any private matters to deal with, you can go back first, and I will go to the archives room to fetch the blank file."

  David thought for a while and decided to go back to the hotel first: "Do you know where I live?"

   "Yes, Bauhinia Hotel."

   "Then I'll wait for you at the hotel."

"Okay, my lord." Elias didn't feel any dissatisfaction. As an etiquette officer, after being assigned to assist the new nobleman, his duties included helping the new nobleman handle various procedures, which means that this is his work.

   Accompanying David all the way out of the palace, Elias turned back to the archives to fetch all the necessary documents.

  David was about to stroll back to the hotel after leaving the palace, but Sutton Stewart's attendants were already waiting outside the palace.

  "Lord Baron Glamorgan." It can be seen that this servant has received accurate information: "I am the servant of Lord Earl Stuart, and the Lord told me to wait for you to come out here and take you back to your residence."

"Oh, I'll trouble you then." David glanced at the carriage parked next to him, but it wasn't the one he was familiar with (with the bug installed), this one was much smaller and could only allow two people to sit side by side in the carriage inside.

   "The baron is too polite."

   Watching David respectfully board the carriage, the attendant closed the door before sitting next to the coachman. Without further instructions, the coachman drove the carriage and drove towards the Bauhinia Hotel.

   Not long after, the carriage arrived at the destination, and the attendant immediately got out of the carriage and opened the door, and opened the hotel door for David first.

  Nodding to the attendant, David wanted him to thank Earl Stewart on his behalf, but as soon as he entered the hotel, he saw Earl Sutton-Stewart sitting in the lobby, obviously waiting for him.

   "Aha! Look, it's Lord David Glamorgan." Standing up, he said in an exaggerated voice, "Welcome!"

   "How do you feel?" Earl Sutton-Stewart put down the wine glass in his hand and walked in front of David: "I thought you would waste more time to deal with those trivial matters."

   "My ceremonial officer went to fetch those papers for me."

   "Oh, yes!" Stuart nodded: "According to the usual practice, you will be assigned an etiquette officer to guide you in handling various related matters."

   Speaking of which, Earl Stuart seemed to have thought of something, and put on a sympathetic look: "The ceremonial officer assigned to you must be miserable at ordinary times."

  Things that David could think of, Stuart also thought of. Given the situation in Cold Winter Town, no etiquette officer is willing to take the job, and it must be thrown to some unlucky guy in the end.

   "Which unlucky guy was assigned to be your personal ceremonial officer?"

   "Elias Parker."

   "Oh, it's him!"

  David felt amazing. He just answered Stuart's question casually. He didn't expect that the Earl actually knew who this person was.

"You know him?"

   "The youngest son of Baron Parker's family, I have seen him several times before, but since Baron Parker passed away, I haven't seen him again."

  At present, the human countries on the continent of Brennia basically have the same title system. It is said that they all originated from the title system of the Soduruma Empire. From high to low, they are Duke, Marquis, Earl, Viscount, and Baron.

   Among them, the baron is not hereditary.

   This is an important reason why Elias Parker's life was not very satisfactory after Baron Parker passed away, because the most important pillar of the family was gone.

However, at any rate, they are also descendants of nobles. They have received various educations since they were young. When their father was around, they were well connected. Although the sons are no longer nobles, they will not turn back into common people. kind of officials.

After chatting about Elias Parker, David had a better understanding of some situations. Only then did Stuart express his intentions: "I have prepared a celebration party for you...don't refuse During the period, there will be many knights from the Tiran Knights, alchemists from the Kingdom's Alchemy Workshop, and mages from the Tiran Mages.”

After hearing this, David immediately understood that this was actually a job fair held for him. After becoming a baron, he would definitely not be able to handle everything by himself. Before returning to Cold Winter Town, recruit some powerful It's a normal thing to help.

"You don't have to worry about my bad intentions. This party is actually what he meant." Earl Stewart reminded David in a low voice, letting David understand that this time it was all arranged by His Majesty the King, so don't worry about yourself What kind of tricks are you doing.

  David immediately understood that His Majesty the King wanted to intimidate the nobles of Iron Tree Fort. Of course, he couldn't just confer a title and finish the job, and he had to give some support as appropriate.

  If David's guess is correct, some people should have received His Majesty's instruction to take advantage of this job fair to accept his invitation and follow him to Cold Winter Town.

  Of course, David believed that the Earl Stewart in front of him would also add some sand to this team in order to achieve some goals, such as the plan to help the Temple gain a foothold in the north of the Kingdom of Tilan.

   "Host at your place?"

"Yes, I'll send someone to pick you up later, I'll go back first." Earl Stewart was about to leave after finishing speaking, but he took it back before his foot landed: "By the way, go up Is there any more gifts like the one from last time?"

   "I'll bring some more to the past."

  Earl Stewart nodded in satisfaction, gave David a look of "Sure enough, you are my confidant", and left the Bauhinia Hotel happily.
