Age of Empires From Scratch Chapter 111

  Chapter 111 Tilan Kingdom's new top player

  When David left, there was still thick snow on the northern plains. It was already spring, and the land seemed to be still in the harsh winter.

When I came back, the snow had disappeared, and greenery appeared on the vast land, and the light wind blowing across my face from time to time no longer cut people like a knife, but it was a bit cold, which made Zai take off his cloak on the road. The crowd put the thick cloak back on their bodies again.

   "This is Cold Winter Town!" Floyd looked at the village gradually appearing in his eyes, his eyes were full of curiosity.

   Is this small village composed of many wooden houses our future?

   His gaze shifted to the huge 'construction site', where countless craftsmen were busy. He could guess that the area under construction was the real Cold Winter Town.

   "It seems that it is worth looking forward to."

  The scope of the construction site is very large, with various gullies and channels criss-crossing, and the complexity makes everyone, including Freud, a little confused.

   "It seems to be building a drain?"

  The few people who will live in Cold Winter Town are carefully looking at their new home, but the people from Earl Stewart's family and the Kingdom Guard cavalry who came to visit temporarily are simply disgusted.

  What is the future of such a remote, rural place with nothing?

  Several of them glanced at Floyd secretly, thinking that this former knight who taught the Knights of Tiran really made the worst choice in life.

  Floyd could feel the eyes of everyone, but he didn't care: he had made a choice, and there was no room for regret.

   After swearing allegiance to David, he went to the Tiran Knights to go through various procedures, and then caught up with David's team as quickly as possible.

  Because Freud is swearing allegiance to the newly promoted lord, he can retain his status as a member of the Tiran Knights, but it is only a name, he will not hold any position, and he will not receive half of his salary.

   "Really don't stay overnight?"

  While Floyd, Gareth, Cordell, Elias and others looked around, the knight guards and those who helped transport the presents were about to leave.

  The duty of the knight guards is to **** Baron Glamorgan back to his territory smoothly. Now that their task has been completed, they don't even need to ask David's consent, they can leave at any time.

  The people sent by Earl Stewart couldn't be so rude. His master was very polite to Baron Glamorgan, how could the people sent out not know this.

  He could only politely express to Lord Baron David that they need to go back to report to Lord Earl as soon as possible, and the territory of Lord Baron is simply a big construction site, so there is no place for them to stay overnight, right?

  In fact, there are still places to live. David found out when he came back that there was another big wooden house next to the big wooden house specially built to accommodate the craftsmen of the masonry union.

   Obviously, this is the residence built in advance by several partners in anticipation that David will bring some people back.

   Regardless of whether David can successfully upgrade Rinwinter Village to Rinwinter Town this time, everyone will still live in the existing houses for a while. Because the construction of Cold Winter Fortress is not a matter of one day, before the construction of Cold Winter Town, if newcomers or new villagers come, there must be a place to resettle, right?

  In addition to the big wooden house, there are two separate small wooden houses, which are prepared in advance.

  So, there are actually enough houses in Cold Winter Town to accommodate these people for one night, but since the other party shows such resistance, David will not force the other party to stay.

  After a few friendly and polite words, after the other party put away all the gifts in charge of delivery, he watched the other party leave.

  Looking in this direction, they should be preparing to go to Snowfield Castle and rest there.

On the way back, David's team passed through towns including Wangbei Town, Iron Tree Fort, Snowfield Fort, etc., but they didn't stop or communicate with anyone. They just rushed all the way to Cold Winter Town and finally arrived today. destination.

  Looking at the familiar wooden houses, familiar streets and familiar people, David took a deep breath: "The air here is better!"

  He didn't indulge in the joy of returning home alone. As a lord, at least he had to settle down his subordinates first.

  Called Eva, who was already waiting by the side: "This is Eva McKenna. She helped me with the affairs in the territory before. You can ask her about the affairs in the village."

   "Eva, these are newcomers to Cold Winter Town, show them around and settle down."

Eva looked at these people, and understood that David wanted to take this group of people around, and at the same time send these newcomers away, so that David could buy time to explain the current situation to his partners. Case.

  Although she sometimes showed a silly look, Eva, who was actually very smart and capable, led the crowd to the big wooden house, planning to waste more time there.

After Eva led a group of people to the big wooden house, the people notified by Sharon came to David one after another. Mark even sat at the long table and waited for everyone to listen to David's story. Time has passed.

  He didn't wait too long, and the few people currently staying in Cold Winter Town quickly gathered together to listen to David talk about his experience of going to the royal capital and what he gained...

  At the same time, in various towns in the northern part of the Kingdom of Tilan, countless people saw the latest announcement posted by the officials.

   "Winter Town?"

   "It is said to be the newest frontier of the kingdom, a new town established by a young man through a pioneering order."

   "Isn't the pioneering order establishing a village?"

   "Maybe it's because there are more people? And it's a new border, so building towns seems to be more important?"

   "The young man named David was named a baron by His Majesty the King because he successfully established a new town, and was bestowed a surname by His Majesty the King himself."

   "What a lucky guy..."

   All kinds of comments can be seen everywhere in the major towns in the northern part of the kingdom. From the beginning, they were only discussed next to the announcement, and slowly became the latest talking points of countless people.

  For these civilians who have never left their birth villages and towns for almost their entire lives, there are only so many things they see and hear on weekdays, and there are very few things they can talk about.

  Everyone is very interested in hearing such big news this time.

   As a result, the news gradually spread from the town to the surrounding villages, and more and more people knew about the new town of Cold Winter Town and the new nobleman, Baron David Glamorgan.

  In addition to discussing the lucky Baron David Glamorgan, some people also seriously discussed with friends, should they go to Cold Winter Town to find opportunities?

   "It's a newly established town, maybe there's nothing there."

   "Nothing means a lot of opportunities."

   "I don't think it's good, it's better to stay here and continue farming."

   "Maybe you're right, but I don't own a field."

   "You can continue to work for Lord Fitz, Lord Fitz is still very generous."

   "Maybe...but I want to give it a try..."

   Farmers who don't have their own fields, craftsmen with some skills, and even some young people who feel a little strength and have nothing else, all began to seriously consider whether to go to the new town of Winter Town to find opportunities.

In the eyes of some old people or those who have a stable life, the new town of Winter Town is full of too much uncertainty; but in the eyes of those who have nothing or some young people who are unwilling to stick to the rules, Winter Town is full of Chance.

  Being a self-cultivator, becoming a store owner, or even becoming a soldier, no matter what it is, as long as it can be better than now, they are willing to try it.

  More and more people began to inquire about the news of Rinwinter Town. All kinds of information about Rinwinter Town and Baron Glamorgan gradually spread to other parts of the Kingdom of Tilan after they gradually became well-known in the Kingdom of Tilan...

   "So, you are now a baron?" After listening to David's story, everyone including Mark looked at David curiously.

"Don't look at me with such strange eyes, is the baron something strange? There is also an earl sitting here!" David pointed to Laura next to him, and dragged Laura who was watching the play down. water. (P.S: The LaurCrawford family is set as a hereditary earl, which only exists in the Trilogy of Finding My Mother. Other generations, including the new trilogy, have not clearly stated the specific title of the Crawford family. This book This setting is applied in the book)

  In addition to Laura, Fording is also the great lord of the Kingdom of Lordaeron, and his status is higher than David, a small rural nobleman, who knows how many levels.

  So, aristocratic status is not such a rare thing in Cold Winter Town, but it does not prevent everyone from using this to joke with David.

   "It's Lord Glamorgan... This title sounds quite good, and it feels a bit familiar." Mark thought about it, but he didn't expect to hear the word Glamorgan.

It just so happens that Laura is here, and she has a lot of knowledge, not to mention her "hometown": "Glamorgan is an old place name in Wales, located in the current Cardiff and Swansea areas; in addition, the current The University of South Wales was formed through the merger of the University of Glamorgan and the University of Wales, Newport."

  Mark let out an 'oh~', then looked at David and then at Laura: "What an interesting coincidence."

Everyone present knew that the Glamorgan surname was a new surname created by His Majesty the King after flipping through the dictionary. They didn't expect it to be related to Laura's hometown. This unexpected situation made everyone feel very interesting. .

When everyone was chatting about the same, Eva came back with many newcomers who had settled down. The time card was very accurate. Then there was a scene where a group of people introduced each other. As the lord, David did not need to introduce these people personally. You can go about your own business.

  For example, standing aside, whispered to Edwin Van Cleef who stood next to him after getting his signal: "Observe these people carefully."
