Start as Inherited Baroness

Chapter 37 Conferring the Disputed Land

At this time, in the hall, Simon and Winness were having a sumptuous dinner together.

There were roast chicken, roast fish, white bread and cheese, and a bowl of vegetable soup.

There were no vegetables grown here, but there were many delicious wild vegetables in the wasteland, many of which had long been proven to be edible.

"How was the inspection today?" Winness asked casually.

"We have reached the northernmost part of Yongyi Territory. After crossing those hills, there is another plain.

However, that plain is on the border line, and the kingdom has not yet sent people to clearly demarcate the actual boundary.

If we can send people to set up a village now, we will definitely occupy a lot more land."

Simon said while gnawing on a chicken leg.

"This is a good idea. It's better to implement it quickly, otherwise the baron of Green Valley will definitely have the same idea when he reacts."

Winness heard this, thought for a while, and smiled.

"What do you think about me giving that border land to Yade? We have roughly seen it, and it is at least as big as an ordinary baron in the king's territory."

Simon said casually, and took a sip of vegetable soup.

Without waiting for Winness to reply, he said to himself: "This won't work! I still need Yade's 500 slaves to guard the slaves and protect the farmland."

"Well... let Yade give us the slaves, I'll go and tell him, no problem." Winness said hurriedly.

"Then let him give us 300 slaves, after all, when he arrives at the border, he still needs to face the pressure of the Green Plains Baron."

Simon looked up at his wife and smiled meaningfully.

"Okay, I'll go and tell him tomorrow." Winness smiled brightly.

Simon nodded, and then he didn't say anything serious. The two chatted about interesting things for a while, and after a while, dinner was over.

The night was long and there were too few entertainment activities, but fortunately there were a few Yingtiao slave girls, they all knew some singing and dancing and musical instruments.

I called them over immediately and had some fun.

At about ten o'clock in the evening, Simon asked the Yingchi to withdraw, pressed Winnies on the bed, and began to manage his business.

He felt that she should be pregnant, and he had done it many times.

......

After a night, Simon woke up refreshed. As usual, he put on heavy armor and went to the hall to have breakfast with the help of servants.

Then, he sat in the first seat and looked through books. Heraldry is a compulsory course for the nobles of the kingdom, but Simon obviously failed.

It was more than ten o'clock in the morning, and the guard at the door, Mailan, reported: "Baron, Knight Yade wants to see you."

Simon's expression moved slightly, and he said calmly: "Let him in."

"Yes." Mailan immediately let Yade in.

"Greetings, Baron, good day!"

"What do you want to see me for? Is there a problem in the forest?" Simon asked with a faint smile.

"My Lord Baron, this is it. I want to offer you 400 servants. As an honorary knight without a fief, it is difficult for me to support them.

It is better to give them to you so that they can play a greater role." Yade said with some trepidation in his heart.

Simon pretended to be silent after hearing this. After a while, he smiled and said, "Okay, then I will accept it.

I am going to confer you a fief. Follow me."

"Yes! My Lord!" Yade looked happy and excited.

Knights without fiefs are called honorary knights. They are just quasi-nobles and cannot create families.

Once a knight is conferred a fief, he is called a fiefdom knight, the lowest noble, and can be regarded as truly entering the ranks of nobles.

You can create a surname and establish a family.

After Simon and Yade left the hall, they called all the cavalry and ran north along the river. After jogging for several hours, they came to the border again.

Here is still just a wasteland, without any human figures.

He led his men to patrol for a while, marking several locations in the north and south. A river in the east was a natural boundary, so there was no need to pay too much attention to it.

"This piece of land is your knight territory, let's call it Fengjian Village.

Yade, it's yours. Bring your people here tomorrow to take care of it. Your main task is to guard the border."

Simon generously gave him this disputed land.

Looking at it in general, it is about 50 square kilometers. Except for a forest in the west, it is all plains.

This is a baron's fiefdom in the inland. Although it is a bit troublesome, Yade's face was flushed with great joy.

"I will definitely be loyal to the baron..." He immediately turned over and dismounted, knelt on one knee, and expressed his loyalty.

Aire and Sarit looked a little envious and jealous.

However, the latter saw a clue that this piece of land was a hot potato, and there would definitely be disputes in the future, so he was not so envious.

"Well! Get up, you'd better get some support from your father, Kelley, and build a fortress as soon as possible.

This way, you can hold this territory more firmly." Simon helped him up and grinned.

"Yes! I'll consider it." Yade said happily.

"Choose a surname and a coat of arms, and report to Winice." Simon said again.

"Yes!" Yade said yes repeatedly, and his loyalty was completely 100 at this time. I'm afraid he is not on the same page with his father Kelley.

Simon nodded with a smile, and then led his people back.

Yade also went back with him. Tomorrow he will bring his own troops to rush here to create a territory.

Although the territory Simon divided for him was large, many places clearly exceeded the boundaries.

In addition, he also left about two thousand acres of plain land in the hilly area east of the river as a baronial jurisdiction.

This road along the river is easier to walk and can lead directly to his core area. In the future, a pass must be built and enough land needs to be reserved.

When they returned to the camp, it was completely dark, and there were dots of fireflies floating in the sky, which was very beautiful.

With so many cavalry moving together, there was no trouble on the road.

Winice is still waiting for Simon to have dinner together.

"I have already granted that piece of land to Yade. It can be seen that your brother is very satisfied." Simon smiled.

"Thank you, my lord~" Winnies's face also glowed, and she served him the meat porridge herself.

"Nothing happened here, right?" Simon smiled and said casually.

"I must have noticed something wrong. Some of the soldiers under your command seem to be harassing the female slaves."

Winnis thought for a moment and hesitated a little.

"Huh? I ignored this matter! It's a sin!

Tomorrow, let all my soldiers gather together, and each of them will lend them a female slave. If they perform meritorious service in the future, they can be given to her.

Let Airey and Sarit choose first, and these two people will just give it to them.

But they may not like it. I have played with the current Yingting slave girl, and it is really not easy to handle.

Hey, do you have any sisters who are businessmen's daughters? Introduce a few to them. Mader and Yaman also want them. "

Simon thought, and spoke carelessly.

"There are some, but I haven't contacted you for a long time. I'll write a few letters when my father's caravan comes." Winnis said with a pursed smile.
