Ambition Lord

Chapter 108 The Noble Ball
Mrs. Lisa was sitting on a chair to rest at this time. After seeing Alan coming, she smiled, stood up, and walked to Alan's side.

"Alan, why do you have time to come to the manor today?" Alan has never been to Qinghuang Manor since he inherited the title of baron. Mrs. Lisa asked curiously.

"I came here to ask the manor housekeeper some questions about the flax planting in the manor, but since you happen to be here, I don't have to ask the manor housekeeper." Alan smiled and explained.

Mrs. Lisa hurriedly pulled Allen to sit down, and asked the servant to pour a glass of water.

"Tell me! Ellen, what do you want to ask?" Mrs. Lisa said.

"That's right. I want to know about flax planting. After all, only manors in Qinghuangling grow flax. I have a lot of experience in this area."

Allen now wants to learn about the planting and harvesting process of flax, so as to prepare for his next plan. After all, planting is not easy, and only by in-depth understanding can he make specific plans.

"En! Faith, bring the ledger here!" Mrs. Lisa ordered to the maid next to her after knowing Alan's purpose.

The maid Faith hurried to get the ledger, and a few minutes later, Faith came back with a lot of ledgers.

"Huh! Mrs. Lisa's ledger is here." Faith panted, put down the ledger, and stepped aside.

Mrs. Lisa searched for a moment among a pile of ledgers, took out one, and opened it.

"Alan, let me tell you!" Mrs. Lisa opened the ledger casually and said.

Allen nodded.

"There are 430 serfs in Qinghuang Manor who have planted flax for a long time, 330 women and [-] men. They all have rich planting experience. Every year, flax is planted in late October and harvested in April of the next year. Plant in early May and harvest in late September.

After the flax is harvested, there is basically nothing left except for the annual supply to the entire territory. This is also the planting data determined by the sales of flax in previous years.

This is roughly the case. If you want to ask specific questions, you have to ask a serf, after all, they are the real experienced people. "

Mrs. Lisa told Allen about the general situation of flax planting in the estate recorded in the ledger.

"By the way, there are also information about serfs in other baronial manors, including serfs who grow flax."

Mrs. Lisa suddenly remembered that since she has been busy with the statistics and management of various manors during this period, Mrs. Lisa has always kept the information of each manor with her for timely verification. on the carriage.

…………

In the end, Allen got various data from Mrs. Lisa about flax planting in various manors in Musenling. Musenling has a total of twelve aristocratic manors planting flax, including one for each of the original nine baronies, and Musenling. Sencheng has three.

The twelve manors add up to more than 5000 serfs who are proficient in flax planting. The flax produced by these manors is only enough for the consumption of the entire Musen collar every year. I want to count on the flax produced by these manors to make linen for sale. It is simply impossible to go to other territories.

But Allen already has a solution. His goal is not the poor flax production in these manors, but the more than 5000 serfs who are proficient in planting in those manors. He plans to move these serfs out of the manor in the near future , Contributing to his team's flax plan.

Of course, Allen's plan seems to be to dig out the corners of his own house and get out the serfs belonging to the Charles Family Manor. What about the gap in the serfs in the Charles Family Manor?
Regarding this matter, Allen knew that he could not act too hastily, and it was not the time yet. The flax plan was just Allen's fantasy, and it would be a long time before it was implemented.

Although Alan is regarded as the head of the Charles family, after all, Mrs. Lisa is in charge now, and he can't directly make such a big gap in the family.

Allen clearly stipulates that everything in the manor belongs to the Charles family. Although Allen is a member of the Charles family, he is not the entire Charles family. He also has younger brothers and sisters, O, and an older sister. have their share.

Allen can be sure that once he asks, Mrs. Lisa will definitely agree, but he can't do this, and he has to think about others, so these serfs Allen have to find a way to make it equivalent from Swap out within the family.

"My lord! Where are we going?" Bud asked, looking at Allen who was sitting on the horse and walking straight ahead.

"Hmm!" Allen just came back to his senses. He was so engrossed in his thoughts just now that he didn't even know the direction back to Qinghuang Castle.

"Go, go back to the castle!" Allen said to Bud after turning in the right direction.

Alan, who had not been back to the castle for a long time, was dragged by Irene before he had time to rest.

"Irene, what are you doing?" Irene kept dragging Alan forward without speaking, and stopped at the stone bench in the back garden. Alan said a little unhappy.

"Look!" Irene pulled out an envelope from her cuff like offering a treasure.

Allen looked at the excited Irene, took the envelope suspiciously, and opened it.

It wasn't until after reading the content that Alan knew why Irene was a little excited.

This envelope is actually an invitation letter from the night leader who has a little relationship with Allen. It is an invitation letter from Winona, the viscount's lady who came to the territory last time.

Winona wanted to invite Irene to the noble ball held in their family's castle four days later. At that time, all the ladies of the Viscount family in the Earl of Reagan would come. After thinking of Irene, Winona specially wrote an invitation letter.

"Do you want to go?" Allen said, looking at Irene next to him.

"Yes...but I just want to ask your opinion. After all, you imprisoned brother Winona last time. Don't think I don't know. Is it inappropriate for me to go?" Although Irene likes to attend noble balls, but But it's not that I don't know the severity, and I'm a little tangled.

"It's okay! Since you want to go, go! I will arrange for a squadron from the Knights of the Blue Desert to escort you." Allen smiled.

Irene's worry, Alan can also think of it. After all, he just unified the Musen collar and imprisoned Archis, so he offended the Yese collar. Now that Irene is invited, it is normal to hesitate.

But Allen is not worried. The various viscounts in the earldom here are not dirty with each other, but I have never seen anyone who would embarrass those noble ladies who are attending the ball. After all, the nobles still value face. Yes, no one would ruin his face for some trivial matter.

"Don't worry, nothing will happen!" Looking at Irene who was still hesitant, Allen reaffirmed.

After realizing that Alan was indeed not lying to comfort herself, Irene couldn't help but get excited and smiled at Alan.After that, I said goodbye to Allen and hurried back to my room. After all, the noble ball still required a lot of preparations.
