Steel, Guns and the Industrial Party Across the World Chapter 368

After the turmoil of Quick, no one was willing to retain the power of their lords, and they handed it over to the Council of Government Affairs one by one with great loyalty.

After a wave of rewards, Alda gained a viscount (Old Ford), three barons (Schroeder, Bryce, Austin), six deputy barons, and a lot of knights.

Almost all those who were summoned to the hall of the Lord's Mansion were given titles, and everyone had a share. Ah, except for one person, that is Ladi Setia, acting director of the Department of Education, because there is no precedent for directly conferring titles on women in this world, and the titles of noble women are generally inherited from their deceased father or husband Come on, this is without another male heir.

However, Ladi herself is not very keen on the title, perhaps because of her other identity, she looks a little lightly on the things that people rush to in the world.

Afterwards, Paul ordered Philip the butler to throw a big banquet, so that this group of newly promoted gentlemen who had realized the class transition could drink to their heart's content. The whole day of celebration was noisy in the Lord's Mansion, and it was not until the evening that everyone left and dispersed.

Three days later, Steward Philip reported an unexpected piece of news to Paul. A group of Emden nobles headed by Sir Helson and Sir Sean—that is, the former vassals of the Kent family—wanted to pay a visit together. he.

Paul asked, "What are they here for?"

Philip replied: "It seems to be related to the recent knighthood."

Oh? Could it be that he also wants to gain some benefits? Forget it, see you later.

"Let them come over, just this weekend."

"Yes, my lord."

"Congratulations, Graham-sama!"

In the hall of the lord's mansion, under the leadership of Sir Helson and Sir Sean, the nobles of Emden saluted Paul in unison.

"Please sit down!" Paul responded with a smile.

After everyone sat down, Helson said: "We have already learned that Lord Graeman has been restored to power by His Majesty the King, so we came to congratulate him together."

"Oh? It's spread so fast? It's only been a few days."

"Master Greiman, you are a bit out of touch, you should send someone to inform us."

Sir Brett Shawn - Lord of Biddleborough - said so to Paul with what he thought was the most perfect smile on his face.

Paul smiled and said, "Haha, didn't you know this without notifying you?"

There was a moment of embarrassment in the hall. I heard that the young earl was not good at interpersonal communication, and it was true.

The nobles exchanged eye contact, and Sir Helson and Sir Sean took a step forward and suddenly knelt down on one knee, and then the other nobles also knelt down after them.

Paul, who was sitting on the lord's seat, was a little confused: "What are you doing?"

Sir Helson raised his head and said, "Master Graham, please accept our loyalty!"

ha? What does it mean?

Sir Sean said: "Emden is now under the jurisdiction of Lord Greyman, and we lords of Emden are also under your control. Now you have been restored by His Majesty the King to all your rights as a nobleman of the sword. , should be our lord."

Haha, it turned out to be to hug the thigh.

After coming to a different world for two years, I finally enjoyed the treatment of a domineering aura, and my younger brother bowed down.

Paul felt a little complacent. He rolled his eyes, stood up, and held out his hands.

"Alright, alright, alright! I accept your loyalty, so get up. From now on, you will be the official vassals of my Greiman family."

No matter what their sincerity is, why not do it if they have a lot of younger brothers?

Everyone was a little surprised, so simple?

According to tradition, a solemn and solemn ceremony is not allowed, and several earl-level lords from the surrounding area are invited to witness, and then everyone

It is reasonable to swear to the Lord of Light to dedicate everything to the new Lord.

Although it is very happy to be able to appreciate Earl Greyman, it would be too childish and disgraceful to agree so casually.

To put it bluntly, it feels like a hot face is attached to a cold butt.

Looking at the bewildered crowd, Paul cleared his throat and said, "I can roughly guess what you are thinking, but the Earl has never liked complicated things, so as long as your loyalty is sincere, why should you care about those formalities? I will send someone to inform the surrounding area that you are already under my protection."

"Of course we mean it!"

"Don't worry, my lord, we will definitely answer your call!"

"Next time there is a war, please be sure to send me as the striker!"

"Whether sick or healthy, we will always follow you until death!"

There was a commotion in the hall, and all the lords swore and swore, each of them looked extremely excited.

"Okay, okay! I can see that everyone is sincere! Haha."

Paul also happily responded to the lords.

Of course he didn't take it seriously. Until death? Maltz Kent has only been cold for half a year, right?

Maltz Kent's family still has a decades-long or even century-long interest relationship with these vassals, relying on marriage and other means to maintain it, but Paul can only give them an empty asylum promise.

In a real war, at most it would be to the extent of "firing two shots into the sky would be worthy of the emperor's salary".

It would be good to count on them to lead the army in battle, not to show off, not to stab a knife in the back.

However, if you don't reach out and hit the smiling person, UU Reading www.uukanshu.com will respond to others, so you have to respond.

"Philip!"

"Yes, Lord Graiman." The old butler came in response.

"Today we will hold another banquet for the lords of Emden. You must drink to your heart's content, don't be restrained!"

Everyone responded in unison: "Thank you, Lord Graeman."

Paul also ordered Philip to bring old Ford, Schroeder, Bryce and others to accompany him.

This level of vassal relationship, even if it is settled like this.

However, the lords of Emden still felt a faint sense of loss in their hearts. They could see that although Earl Greiman was very happy with their contribution, he didn't take it too seriously. It's no big deal” to that extent.

That's right, they have a strong army under their command. Many people have seen the power of this army during the usurper war. The levies that the lords had hastily assembled were vulnerable to Arda's army. Whether it was discipline, morale, or weapons and equipment, they were crushed, and they could only rely on their numerical superiority to deal slowly.

Fortunately, Paul admitted to giving them asylum. Originally, they were only restricted by the Government Council. Now that they are in trouble, Paul has to help.

How to respond to this asylum? Only when both parties benefit can the relationship be maintained for a long time. If it can't help you much in the military, you have to find a way in other aspects.

Linked to the rumors of various things that happened when Paul was canonizing the new vassal, everyone instantly became complicated.
