king of the castle

Chapter 391 Returning Home

As the Queen Mary got closer and closer to the pier, Roger was finally able to clearly see the situation near the pier. 【】During the time Roger left, the town of Kent developed significantly better.The buildings next to the pier have obviously increased, and the scale of the pier has also increased a lot.Many large and small ships come and go around the pier, which is a scene of prosperity.

Roger hasn't been in the territory for a long time, but the entire Kent County has developed really well under the management of Bonnie and others.In particular, the taxes in Kent County are much lower than other places, so more and more businessmen would rather travel a little more and gather here to do business.Moreover, most merchants choose to come to Kent Town by waterway, so that more goods can be transported, and a lot of taxes can be paid less. According to the laws of the kingdom, merchants who pass by rivers and seas do not need to pay road taxes, so they take the waterway. Can save a lot of money.

Since Roger got this piece of land that is considered very barren by others, he has really worked hard here, and has gradually regarded Kent Town as his hometown in the world of Torenzo.Seeing that his hometown is getting better and better, Roger is of course also very happy, and a strong sense of pride can't help but arise in his heart.

The female slaves also knew that they were approaching their destination, and they also came to the deck to watch the shore.Originally, when they heard that their master's territory was on the edge of the kingdom, they thought it would be very desolate and secluded.But what we are seeing now is a lively scene, which seems to be not much inferior to the pier outside Mandos City.

Now the slaves were very happy, and expressed their opinions to the bustling pier. The content of the conversation was nothing more than praise for the master's ability to manage the territory so well.After getting in touch with Roger for a period of time, the female slaves found that the master's temper was better than expected, and they were not as afraid of him as before.The female slaves were all young girls. After the fear in their hearts faded away, they gradually recovered their lively and active nature. At this time, they looked more like a group of girls who came out to play rather than female slaves.

Roger did not interfere with the "transcendence" behavior of the female slaves. He came to a dozen beautiful girls with different styles laughing and talking on the deck. People are happy, there is no need to stop them.

In fact, there is another advantage of having such a group of beautiful girls on deck, and that is that the sailors' work efficiency is greatly improved.Under the watchful eyes of the girls, the sailors worked so hard that a big ship like the Queen Mary showed extraordinary flexibility when docking, saving at least one-third of the docking time.

As soon as the Queen Mary came to a stop, Roger couldn't wait to get on the pier.After leaving for such a long time, he can't wait to go to Kent Town to see what changes have taken place. At the same time, he also wants to see Bonnie, who has worked so hard to build the territory, and that lovely maid Lisa as soon as possible.

The officials in charge of the pier were promoted from Kent Town, so he naturally knew Roger.When the lord came back suddenly, the official was also very happy, and hurriedly greeted him: "Welcome back, lord! I'll inform the others right away!"

"No need, I'll just go back to town by myself, you can continue to work. It's very busy on the pier, thank you for your hard work." Roger declined the other party's kindness, and by the way, he moved the official with a compliment.

Roger has been a noble lord for a long time, and he gradually knows how to buy people's hearts and make his subordinates work for him willingly.Of course, Roger would not be stingy with methods like verbal praise, which cost nothing and made his subordinates feel good.

The female slaves also followed Roger off the boat. They looked at this place that became their new home, and were full of curiosity about everything around them.Beautiful girls will attract people's attention no matter where they are, let alone so many beautiful girls together, of course it immediately attracted the attention of many people.But when everyone realized that these beautiful girls were following Roger, they all looked away tactfully.Roger is the lord of Kent Town, and of course no one dares to touch his woman.

The distance from the pier to Kent Town is not far, and Roger entered the town not long after.As he expected, Kent Town has become much more prosperous than when he left.The bustling streets are full of pedestrians, and many shops are crowded with customers, bargaining with the shop owners noisily, and it can be concluded that the business of each merchant is very prosperous.

Some time ago, there was a war in the south, and the business of the merchants was also affected.However, the news of the kingdom's victory had reached Kent Town at this time, and the relieved merchants naturally put all their energy into the business again, holding back their strength to make up for the previous losses.

Most of the people were busy doing business, and almost no one noticed that the lord had returned, and few people saluted Roger along the way.But Roger didn't care about it. He was very satisfied with the prosperity of the territory, and he always had a happy smile on his face.

Roger led the female slaves through several main streets and came to a quieter street.His Viscount's Mansion is located on this street, but now the Viscount's Mansion is going to be changed into the Earl's Mansion.

In fact, the Earl's Mansion is also located in the heart of the town, but Roger is afraid of noise, so he ordered that no business should be conducted within a certain range near his residence, and this is how he created this quiet little world.Being a lord has this advantage, no matter how you toss in your own territory, as long as you don't declare independence, no one will take care of you.

Seeing that the Earl's Mansion was very close, Roger couldn't help feeling a little excited, and subconsciously quickened his pace.The female slaves following him also noticed a change in their master's mood, and they all quieted down, obediently following behind Roger.

At this moment, Roger saw a familiar figure coming out of the Earl's Mansion, it was Bonnie whom he had been thinking about all along.Bonnie is still as heroic as before, and the experience of being alone for several months has made her a bit more mature. She exudes strong self-confidence and is more attractive than before.

Roger noticed the happy smile on the pretty face of the female knight, and thought that maybe some talkative guy had reported to her that he had returned, and Bonnie was planning to go out to greet him.This thought made Roger's heart warm, and he was about to say hello to Bonnie, but a young man followed her out of the Earl's Mansion.

This man was fairly handsome, his expensive clothes and the bodyguards following him showed that his identity was by no means ordinary.The man and Bonnie stopped at the gate of the Earl's Mansion, and then had a lively discussion.

Judging from the man's attentive smile and being so close to Bonnie, the relationship between the two must be extraordinary.Roger also noticed that Bonnie's pretty face was always smiling, remembering that the female knight was rarely so happy.The situation in front of him made Roger's heart sink gradually, and an ominous premonition slowly spread in his heart.
