Chapter 149 Fame (Part 1)
September 3, Forest Village
When you pass through the path, your eyes will lit up, and the brick walls will enclose a large area of land.
After a period of growth, the olive tree has grown
After the gate, the path is paved with gravel, close to the hills, there is always gravel, neat wet fruit trees planted on the roadside, and a small lawn, and every other section, there is a stone pier.
The adventurers who came here for the first time were fascinated by this. What a wealthy territory this is!
A little further away is the Lord's villa, surrounded by wooden fences, planted with lawns and gardens, and the windows are decorated with glass.
October is the sowing of winter wheat, but September is relatively idle, so there is a lot of manpower to be deployed.
Even so, it is not easy to hold a banquet.
Romon stood in the middle of the hall, watching the servants, Nick and others busy, and sighed secretly.
"Romon, raise your foot!" Nick was flying over with a stack of invitations, but found that the falling one was being stepped on by Romon.
Romon looked down and moved away with a dry smile. Then, he possessed himself and picked up the invitation, opened it and looked. "Is this for Baron Rocas?"
"Yes." Nick took the invitation from Romon and gently wiped off the floating soil on it: "Although he may not come, we must be polite and considerate and not let anyone find fault."
"Yeah." Romon nodded and asked again: "Have Sir Demerka written?"
"This is natural. How could their family forget? Even his wife and daughter, I have invited her." Nick seemed to hear some wind and laughed.
Romon laughed dryly again, then looked around. At this time, the hall had been well arranged. The newly purchased decorations had been arranged one by one, and the hall was thoroughly cleaned up. The newly purchased red carpet was laid on the ground, and the tables and chairs for various banquets had been shipped over, and the bell was carrying people and wiping them carefully.
"Sir!" Seeing Romon walking over, the bell smiled brightly.
Today she wore a brand new dress, which was still light blue, but there were cute white florals on the edge of the dress.
Romon looked at the neat environment around him and was very satisfied. When he looked at Lingling's beautiful clothes, he couldn't help but exclaim: "Lingling, today's clothes are very beautiful and fit."
"Is that so? This was specially prepared for us by Lord Nick. He said, "We can't let you lose your face, sir." Lingling replied with a smile. In fact, she was the only one who special was because Nick knew about this.
"Oh?" After hearing this, Romon turned around and looked at the people around him. Sure enough, everyone here was dressed in a well-fitting dress. Although it was not as gorgeous as bells, the clothes worn by servants were definitely considered to be fitted, they were considered to be face-saving, and they were definitely good-looking when worn.
"Send all these invitations." Nick was standing in the hall and said to more than a dozen subordinates. These people were carefully selected from the territory, each of them was very talkative, and they all looked good.
Romon looked around and nodded in his heart again, feeling that the decision to let Nick, his childhood companion, serve as his home minister, was really correct.
The people Nick chose were indeed very efficient. After half a day, they came back one by one to report the news to Nick. Basically, when those nobles heard that it was Romon, the new noble, invited them to the banquet, they all agreed happily, but there were exceptions.
"Sir, Baron Rocas said that he was going to attend a friend's party that day and had already agreed to the other party, so he couldn't come that day. Moreover, Baron Rocas also said that the second lady would go with him that day and would not come." The invitation sent by Baron Rocas was a middle-aged man who looked very calm. However, after seeing that other companions had completed the task and only he failed and returned, he still couldn't hold back, and felt that he had done the matter.
"Okay, I already know." Romon said, seeing that the other party was still a little depressed, he smiled: "It doesn't matter. If someone has something to do, it's a normal thing. You're doing it well, don't blame yourself."
"Nick, let's wait three days later for the banquet to begin." Seeing that everyone else had gone down, Romon said to Nick. "Do you think they will be interested in the new village after they come?"
"Definitely." Nick said confidently: "I have never seen the style of the new village house before. Just passing by the side will definitely attract attention. Also, the so-called garden can do this. I have never heard of such a thing before."
Romon nodded: "Yeah, I hope it will succeed."
This is how time passes gradually as the two of them expect.
Soon, it was the banquet time three days later.
"Sir, look very energetic when wearing this outfit." Lingling was comparing the clothes one by one in front of the large glass to Romon.
Romon looked at the girl who was more excited than him with a wry smile, and finally chose a casual dress. "Just this one." If this continues, he doesn't have to go out anymore.
Lingling looked at it, then smiled. "Sure enough, the adults have a good view. This dress is very suitable for you. Then wear this one, I will serve you."
As he said that, he served Romon and changed the clothes. I have to say that these clothes Nick had asked someone to customize for him were very suitable, and the colors and styles were also very suitable for him.
Let’s talk about the sky blue robe he is wearing now, which makes him look brighter and more handsome.
When he walked out of the room, Nick and others had already cleaned up the entire hall again. The air was filled with a charming fragrance and various utensils were wiped very brightly.
"Romon, someone has come." Nick said suddenly.
Romon saw from the door and saw two gorgeous carriages coming here in the distance.
"Sir Demerka." Romon knew the style of the carriage and hurriedly went out. Sure enough, when the carriage was parked in the open space, the first carriage was Sir Demerka and his wife.
They greeted Romon with a smile. When the curtain of the second carriage was raised, the two girls walked down with a smile, but they were Sir Demerka's two daughters.
As the owner of the banquet, Romon naturally let them in immediately. However, before he could say anything, a carriage came over again. Romon immediately asked Nick to greet the people who came in, and then stood at the door to welcome the new guests.
Gorgeous carriages began to appear on the way to Forest House. In front of the Roman Villa of Forest House, the open space was filled with carriages and horses.
The servants were all busy and couldn't touch the ground, but they were all full of energy.
"Romum, is it your idea to build a village on the hills?" After many people arrived, the banquet began.Romum used a self-catering banquet, and people were chatting leisurely. As one of the nobles with Romon, Sir Demerca and his wife naturally chose to come at the end.Romum said hello and greeted others before they came.
Romon smiled and said, "Yes, Mr. Demerka, it is indeed my newly built village."
"It's very good. Along the way, I saw many people parked the carriage there and asked the locals. I also learned about your ideas. It's really good and very business-minded. I didn't expect that in addition to being a genius in the druids, you are also so excellent in this regard. For your excellence, let's have a drink." Sir Demerka raised his glass and smiled.
The Jazz Lady also smiled: "I want to congratulate you in advance, your new village will definitely become famous."
"Thank you, thank you, come, I'll give you a glass." Romon also raised his glass and sipped it all.
After drinking this glass of wine, Romon started chatting with others. The most talked about during the chat was the construction of two territories of Romon.
Without surprise, everyone was very impressed by the situation in the territory.
The explanation of the Forest Village made all the nobles sigh, you should know that even in the city, due to the lack of early planning, as the population increases, it becomes more and more crowded and narrow, and dirty and messy. Although there are cleaners and sewers, garbage is still often piled up like mountains and smells soaring, and passers-by often have to cover their noses.
Although now, urban authorities and even churches have put forward requirements for sanitation conditions to ensure public interests, the city lord even sets cleaners as full-time, responsible for cleaning the streets. And through laws, severe punishments are imposed on garbage and sewage everywhere.
Even the obligation is stipulated that all residents in cities, men and women, are responsible for the sanitation in front of their residence and cannot be pulled down inside and outside the door. All kinds of garbage in their homes should be transported away in horse-drawn carriages, and the maximum time to be placed outside the door cannot exceed 3 days.
Public bathhouses are still built in the city to be clean and hygienic.
However, this is still the case. Since there was no planning in the early stage, it was difficult to clean up.
The forest village of Romon was well organized and clean, which surprised these nobles even if they saw it.
"Lord, please allow us to stay here for a few days and visit." Several nobles or squire made this request.
Of course, Romon agreed immediately. Except for the banquet, they lived here for consumption at other times, which could promote economic development within the territory!
The banquet held by Romon today was also very good. All kinds of meals were made with the freshest fruits and vegetables, and the meat was less.
However, because he comes from China and from the food country on earth, he is of course unique in cooking various dishes. After his guidance, the dishes made at the banquet have really opened the eyes of the nobles.
After the banquet, there is a dance party.
Nick was especially on the top of the hall, and as Romon described it, he installed many flashing magic lamps.
With the music together, the curtains on both sides were often pulled up suddenly, while the candles on the table were lit. At the same time, the magic lamps began to flicker continuously according to the melody of the music and the rhythm.
The beautiful atmosphere once again opened the nobles' eyes. While sighing, they all entered the dance floor to dance.
"Romon, why don't you go to dance?" As Romon was holding a glass of wine and watching everyone dance, a sweet voice suddenly sounded beside him.
Looking back, it was Miss Owenna.
"Of course you have to dance, but it depends on whether Miss Owenna is willing to be my dance companion." Romon said with a smile, and at the same time, he put down the cup in his hand, and then stretched out a hand gracefully to Owenna.
"Okay." Owenna agreed happily and put her hand in Romon's hand. "Let me see how our genius druids dance."
So, at the beginning of the next song, Romon and Owenna entered the dance floor and danced.
The banquet was very enjoyable and the guests and hosts were all happy.
"Sir Demerka, please be sure to stay at my house for a few days, together with your wife and lady." After the banquet, as the most honorable guest in the territory, Romon initiated an invitation.
"I'm honored to be invited by you, so I'm not polite." Sir Demerka said with a smile.
Now, he was becoming more and more satisfied with Romon. A hereditary lord, who had such a wealthy territory, could be matched with his family even if he did not make any progress in the future.
"Lord, I saw a large olive grove on the outside. Are you going to harvest olives?"
"Yes, olive oil is an oil used by decent people, and the price has remained stable. I think this small piece of olive groves will bring great profits in the future, although that must be seven years later." Romon replied.
"I also saw you growing grapes. Do you want to make wine?"
"Yes, my lord has his own land. He is not going to plant crops. He wants to plant grapes. He is also going to plant a hundred acres of dragon fruit." Romon smiled and said.
One hundred acres of dragon fruit suddenly surprised everyone present.
Dragon fruit is a high-end fruit that is very popular among nobles and rich people. It is an indispensable embellishment for aristocratic social occasions. It is named after its bright red color and sweet taste.
"As far as I know, the biggest problem with dragon fruit is that the plants are delicate, difficult to plant and are difficult to preserve, so what are you doing?"
Romon smiled and said, "I am a druid. It is said that when I am level 5, I will obtain a natural altar and some natural magic circles. I believe these problems can be solved."
He spoke plainly, but the confidence that he would inevitably be promoted to level 5 made many people present silent.
Some people wanted to refute it, but then they thought that Romon was already level 4 at the age of seventeen, and he really had the confidence to say this.
Many people therefore think that if they can cultivate a (agricultural) druid, can they make their territory and gain more benefits?
Everyone thought about something.
Through this banquet, Romon took a small step in the noble social circle, and his territory began to become famous with the banquet. Many gentry did not leave immediately after the banquet and stayed in the hotel of the Forest House, causing the original adventurers of the Forest House Hotel to move to their residences.
