Now Downton, although he only holds the position of Hand of the King, he is already the well-deserved uncrowned king of Drankfurt. In less than two years, the king's influence has completely disappeared!
The fleet stayed in the sky, spread its guard, and the flagship landed in the courtyard.
"hurry up!"
Abagong arrived immediately, urging all the servants and guards in the palace to wait to welcome his master.
"Congratulations to the Duke on your triumphant victory!"
When Downton's figure appeared on the deck, all the servants knelt down and shouted loudly in the darkness.
"Why are you working so hard? Let's all disperse and go to work!"
Downton waved his hand.
"Go prepare hot water and food!"
Abagon gave the order and immediately ran up to Downton, knelt down and kissed his boots.
When the servants saw this scene, they couldn't help but be surprised. They must know that Abagon is the finance minister and is in charge of all the wealth of Delankfurt. They did not expect that facing Downton, he would be no different from a humble servant.
"You are also a high-ranking minister now, so you must pay attention to your image in front of your servants!"
Downton grabbed hold with one hand and activated the Dragon Capture in the Air, dragging Abagon up. Being a servant is an art, and sometimes, you need to give your servants the respect they deserve.
"I will be your loyal slave at all times!"
Abagon was moved to tears, knelt down again, and kissed Downton's boots, not caring about the mud on them.
The goblin butler is sincere. If it weren't for Downton, he would never be out of trouble.
"I think we should send you to Madeleine's Toffee Opera Company to be a clown. Your acting skills are quite realistic!"
Jackson complained that he hated this guy the most because his ability to flatter people was better than his.
“It’s better to be comfortable in your own home!”
Hutao cheered, opened her arms, and ran away like an airplane. She wanted to see if her pets had lost weight.
"Follow up quickly!"
Abagong urged, but several maids had already run out. Without any eyesight, they would never be able to get ahead in the palace.
"How is the current situation in the country!"
Downton nodded towards Arnold and the others, and asked as he walked towards the bedroom.
"The public security is good. After the disabled soldiers returned home, I allocated a sum of money to establish a security team and used them to fight against bandits, and the results were good!"
Being a robber is a job that requires blood and blood. You may be caught and beheaded at any time. If you really can't survive, they won't take the risk.
Now that Frankfurt's economy is improving, its citizens are living happily, and coupled with those tyrannical armies, there is no room for bandits to survive. They either leave and plunder other countries, or they change their appearance and live in another place.
Abagong turned a blind eye and did not pursue any charges during the census, so many bandits were cleared and became good citizens again.
"What about the economy?"
Downton doesn't care about public security at all. He can send out any regiment at will and it can clear the border. The military spirit is created by fighting. Now even the human soldiers walk as if they have eyes on their heads. Nothing else. They are all in Samosai.
He had cut off the enemy's heads on the battlefield and considered himself a strong army.
"The free trade zone is in a mess. More and more indigenous mountain people and orc herdsmen have spontaneously formed caravans and traveled thousands of miles to come. Now the transaction volume is doubling every month, and it is expected to reach 1,000 this year.
Billion trade volume!”
Abagon pulled out a report.
"so much?"
Downton was shocked. The annual trade volume of a second-rate country was only this much!
"Yes, the orcs and humans have been closed for too long. Even if there are private caravans on the border, their coverage is too small, because the orc tribe has accumulated a large amount of materials, which has turned into wealth, which is amazing. As for the dragon hills,
Not to mention the indigenous people, most of them have never seen what a copper plate looks like before, let alone gold coins!"
Abagong's face beamed with excitement, "According to my estimation, this trade volume will continue to grow every year, and it should last for five years, and then it will start to show a downward trend."
"We must ensure the security of the free trade zone. If a bandit group appears, we must attack it with all our strength and take no prisoners!"
Downton is so ruthless that he will destroy anyone who touches his money bag.
"The order has been given. The barbarian legion is now responsible for the security of the free trade zone!"
Abagong has already taken countermeasures, but there is no other way. There are too many people coveting the free trade zone. Those people are like wild dogs with pink eye, finally wandering there, trying to get a piece of the pie.
"Very good." Downton was very satisfied. Having an expert in internal affairs would save him a lot of effort. "By the way, there are several countries bordering Dragon Hills and Sunset Prairie. They have not established free trade zones?
"
"Built it!"
Abagong reported truthfully.
"How's the trade?"
Downton's face darkened, wondering whether they would start a war based on their destruction of their own free trade zone.
"Master, don't worry, their free trade zone is terribly deserted, no one is trading at all!"
Abagong smiled.
"Um?"
Downton was stunned for a moment, then smiled. In the eyes of other races, humans are the most cunning and intelligent race.
The hilly natives and orcs are notoriously distrustful of humans. Downton was able to establish the free trade zone only because of the endorsement of Charlotte and the native chiefs, so that the natives believed it. As for the orcs, it was also thanks to the tauren Balak and the
The relationship between wise wolves.
The establishment of any trade requires trust. Orcs and natives would not dare to go to unfamiliar places. If they were captured and sold into slavery, it would be fine. If they were beheaded directly, they would die unjustly.
The sales in Downton's free trade zone were mediocre at the beginning. Those guys were very vigilant and were afraid of being cheated. Abagong simply let the ogres and foreign orcs maintain law and order with a stroke of his pen, which lowered their confidence.
Be alert and gradually build trust.
"Well done. Prepare the important documents and put them in the study. I will review them later!" Downton walked into the bathroom. He was tired from the journey and needed a rest.
Six maids followed closely behind and came in, surrounding Downton and trying to undress him.
"You guys get out!"
Downton took off his clothes himself.
The maids looked at each other without moving.
"go out!"
Downton frowned. His voice became stern unconsciously. The maids were like frightened birds. After bowing, they bowed and quickly retreated.
"My lord is so scary!"
"Hey, my lord is so strong. I really want to serve him. What do you think he is worried about? Isn't it natural to use a maid?"
"My lord is from a commoner background and is not used to using servants. By the way, are you in love?"
"Don't you?"
The maids were chirping. Downton was handsome and powerful. It was strange that these maids had no idea. They did not seek any extravagant status. They just wanted to give birth to a child for Downton, so that at least they would have enough food and clothing for the rest of their lives.
"But you are a good man!"
As one of the maids sighed, the others also nodded. If it were another aristocratic family, these pretty maids would have been lucky.
The marble bathhouse was large and filled with white steam. Downton jumped in, then leaned against the edge of the pool and took a deep breath.
In the past few years since he entered the dungeon, Downton has been exhausted, struggling to survive. Now that no one can threaten him, he can relax.
Abagong lit the soothing incense very considerately, and Downton fell asleep unconsciously. After he took a nap, he felt someone rubbing his shoulders.
Downton was startled, and his body opened. He stood up suddenly, and the majesty of his soul dispersed.
A woman who was kneeling on the ground was frightened and her face turned pale.
"It's you?"
Downton frowned, and he realized that the person massaging him was actually Melissa.
"Master Long Wei, you scared the slave girl to death!" Melissa patted her chest. While complimenting Downton, she acted coquettishly with a frightened expression, "I thought I was going to be killed!"
"Why are you here?"
Downton's eyes moved downwards involuntarily. Because she was in the bathroom, Melissa was only wearing a black gauze robe. Not to mention her lustrous flesh, her breasts were already plump. At this time, she slapped and shook them out.
seductive waves.
"Looking for a job to support the family!" Melissa explained, patting the edge of the pool, "Sit down and try my skills!"
"Is it Abagong's idea?"
Downton sat back again. Even if he didn't want to admit it, he was still a little vain in his heart. Who was Melissa? The dream lover of all the men in Chenwu Town. Even he had been with Du Lun and the others.
Secretly lying on Melissa's wall, admiring her seductive figure.
In the past, Downton did not dare to dream of marrying a woman as beautiful as Melissa, but now, she was kneeling behind him, serving him.
Abagon's ability to flatter others is superior to that of Jackson. Having been a servant for more than ten years, the green-skinned goblin knows how to cater to others.
"Comfortable?"
Melissa asked, because she was so close, her sweet breath was sprayed on Downton's neck, making him itchy.
"Forget it, get out!"
Downton shook his head and laughed. He was indeed superficial.
"Why, is my technique bad?"
Melissa asked timidly, but there was a flash of light in her eyes. A lavender breath overflowed from her lips. As soon as it touched the air, it immediately became invisible and penetrated directly into Downton's skin.
.
"no!"
Downton admitted that Melissa was very good at serving others. Her hands seemed to have magic power, which made the fatigue in his body disappear all of a sudden. His whole body felt like he was basking in the warm sunshine of spring, and he felt so comfortable that he didn't want to move a finger.
.
"Then why are you driving me away?"
Melissa's voice became gentle, she knelt down, lowered her head, and kissed Downton's neck like a dragonfly.
Downton shuddered as if he was electrocuted, and subconsciously stood up, but was held down by Melissa, and then a slippery tongue licked his back.
That kind of touch made him fascinated instantly.
"Comfortable?"
Melissa's voice was ethereal, as if floating in the clouds.
"Um!"
I don’t know why, Downton is like staying in a warm quilt in winter, not wanting to move at all. (To be continued...)
