It was impossible for Duke Hosman to watch his son get dressed here, so he went to the banquet hall first.

Brian also finished washing up as quickly as possible with the help of the maids.

When he walked through the corridor and looked through the window, he saw rows of servants standing in the garden, being interrogated by his father's bodyguards.

I don’t know what method he used, but two people were quickly pulled out.

Their results can be imagined. If they can't solve the problem themselves, they can just leave it to someone who can.

If the Duchess gets into trouble, Duke Horsman should be able to stop it for her.

After relaxing, Brian hummed a ditty from another world and came to the banquet hall to sit sideways.

Soon, sumptuous food was placed in front of him. The nobles at this time did not have as many complicated etiquette as in later generations.

Brian spoke to his father and started to eat happily.

The consumption of vitality requires a large amount of nutritional supplements. Since there are no magic potions or precious monster meat, ordinary meat is also acceptable.

During the dinner, Duke Horsman also taught Brian everything he had to say, and pointed out everything that a lord should pay attention to.

While listening to his father's teachings, Brian looked through his own system.

Coming from a noble family and having a systematic relationship with him are the foundation for Brian to gain a foothold in the other world. He must be tough with both hands.

What he saw when he opened the system were his personal attributes and territory attributes. The lottery options and the system mall next to them were gray and could not be opened, and the system prompted him that he needed achievement points to open them.

Obtaining achievement points is also very simple. Whether it is the improvement of personal strength or the improvement of territory strength, you can obtain achievement points.

There is no hope of achieving achievement points for the time being. Let’s take a look at the attributes of yourself and your territory first.

personal attributes

Name: Brian Horsman.

Race: human

Age:18

Strength: Junior Knight

Occupation: Noble Lord (in charge)

Reputation: 12 (obscure)

Spouse: None

Demon Pet: None

Heirs: None

Comment: A young man full of hope is about to embark on a journey.

If your personal attributes are simple and clear, and there are no heart-wrenching comments, this system should get along well with you.

However, my strength is really weak, and it seems that I need to improve it as soon as possible.

In fact, if you have the strength of the Earth Knight, no one would dare to poison yourself, and then you will see the territorial attribute.

Territory name: Lanesburg (hosted)

Territory strength: 4536 (weak)

Army strength: 20 (weak)

Population: people

Territory income: 1456 gold coins/year

Territory wealth: 100 gold coins

Territorial nobles: 42 (rare)

Territory reputation: 34 (ignore)

Territory evaluation: a lot of waste waiting to be done

Seeing the nature of the territory, Brian felt a headache. It seemed that Viscount Horton's accidental death in battle not only cost him his own life, but also cost the entire Lansburgh family fortune.

No wonder Aunt Lina, faced with this mess, chose to let it go and cash out.

If Viscount Horton was at war with another kingdom, he could still save his life even if he lost the battle, and he wouldn't even have to lose too much.

It is a pity that Viscount Horton died in the war with the orcs, and his body may have been eaten.

The entire army they brought was wiped out, and only a few nobles escaped.

The reason why Aunt Lina was able to successfully inherit the title of Viscount was that, apart from having a duke brother, Viscount Horton had no direct relatives, and one of the reasons why the Horton family was almost extinct.

This strengthened Brian's determination to farm with peace of mind. Otherwise, if you die in battle, your wife will become someone else's wife, and your family property will also become someone else's property.

The best way to be exempted from military service is to use money to offset it, but looking at the territory wealth column, Brian really wanted to cry. The 100 gold coins were not as much as his own pocket money.

The money should have been taken away by Aunt Lina. After all, the cost of living in the royal capital is quite high.

Being able to leave 100 gold coins for him is already giving face to my eldest nephew.

Duke Horsman took a sip of the wine in his glass, put down the glass and started talking.

"Landsburg is full of waste now, and this is your opportunity to show your talents. I hope your aristocratic education over the years has not been in vain.

But you have to remember to give Aunt Lina an alimony of 1,000 gold coins every year. This is the condition for her to support you in running Lansburg.

But don't worry, I brought you 5,000 gold coins, which should be able to help you open up the situation.

And I will send you 300 armored knights to protect your safety.

Ten of the officers are middle-level knights with fighting spirit, you can completely trust them."

Brian knew very well that the original funding given to him by Duke Horsman was only 5,000 gold coins.

The landlord's family had no surplus food, and besides, he was only the second son. If he gave too much, other members of the family would be dissatisfied.

Moreover, with the remaining military strength of Landsburg, the strength of his twenty guards and the senior knight Karl, the old butler, were enough to suppress the situation.

The extra 300 armored knights and 10 mid-level knights should be compensation given to him by the Duke. Who makes him unable to look down on his wife?

Sure enough, it's a blessing in disguise, how could you know it's not a blessing?

Although 300 armored knights are few, they can easily defeat tens of thousands of serf soldiers.

Without more than 5,000 regular troops of the kingdom, there is no way to defeat them. It is just a victory. It is impossible to keep them.

If Brian wants to cultivate such an army by himself, he will have to spend at least several years and spend tens of thousands of gold coins. Moreover, it will also have to be sent to the battlefield. Only those who survive several battles can become an army.

It seems that Duke Hosman really cares about his second son.

Brian was not a ignorant person, and he immediately expressed his gratitude to Lord Horsman. The scene of deep love between father and son moved everyone for a while.

But Brian and Duke Horsman are both people who don’t like to talk nonsense, Duke Horsman continued.

"Landsburg has just experienced a major defeat, so you will not be issued with war recruitment orders for this year and next.

But you have to be prepared. The war between humans and orcs and orcs is getting more and more intense, although the war has not yet reached the borders of the kingdom.

But once the Principality of Alton collapses completely, our Frankish Kingdom will face the orc army directly, so the reinforcements we send out will also be continuous.

War is never far away from us, and Viscount Horton as a reinforcement is a warning, so you must not relax in your cultivation."

Brian also assured his parents like a primary school student who had just started school.

"Don't worry, father. I will definitely restore Lansburg's combat power in the shortest possible time. At the same time, I will not relax my personal practice."

Duke Horsman quite recognized his youngest son. Although his spiritual talent was average, he was cautious and a qualified nobleman.
