Chapter 1016

As soon as Ye Li entered the courtyard, the butler Laurent ordered Neng to call everyone in the manor, and formed three rows in front of Ye Li.

Laurent said to Ye Li: "Master, you see, these are the servants and guards in the manor, including me, there are 50 people in total.

The first row of 20 people here are guards, who are responsible for protecting the safety of the manor. They belong to the Royal Palace Guards and are personally selected and controlled by His Majesty the King.

The ten people in the second row are in charge of your internal affairs, including cleaning the room, washing your clothes and serving you to shower and change clothes.

The 19 people in the third row are responsible for external things, including yard maintenance, house repairs, buying and selling necessities, and cooking. "

After speaking, Laurent pointed to a tall and strong man in the first row and said, "Master, this is Gilbert, he is the captain of the guard."

Gilbert hurried out of the team, saluted Ye Li and said respectfully, "Gilbert greets Master Ye."

Ye Li knew that although these people were protecting him in name, they were actually here to monitor Ye Li, but they would not follow Ye Li all the time, but acted as Edwin Lucas' eyeliner in Ye Li's yard, and would be there at any time. Report the situation of Ye Li.

Nodding to Gilbert, Ye Li said, "From now on, I will have to work on guarding the manor."

Although Ye Li knew the purpose of these people coming here, he didn't intend to quarrel with Edwin Lucas after all, so he could only pretend that he didn't know the purpose of the other party here, and communicate with him politely.

Afterwards, Laurent pointed to a chubby woman in her fifties in the second row and said, "This is Kate, she is the chief of internal affairs, responsible for arranging internal affairs, if you have any needs in life, you can directly tell She, she will properly arrange it for you."

When Kate heard Laurent talking about her, she hurriedly stepped out of the line and said, "Kate greets you well, sir."

Ye Li didn't put on airs either. Hearing the other party's greeting, he naturally hurriedly greeted the other party.

Immediately afterwards, Laurent pointed to a fat, bald man in his fifties in the third row, and said, "Look, sir, this is Jim, he is the Minister of Foreign Affairs, and he handles all foreign affairs work." When coordinating and arranging, when you have any requirements for the manor, you can tell him directly, and he will arrange everything for you."

Naturally, Jim rushed out to greet Ye Li, and Ye Li responded.

Afterwards, Laurent dispersed the crowd and asked them to continue working, while he himself led Ye Li around the manor.

In the whole manor, in addition to the living and receiving rooms, there is also a garden courtyard, and the kitchen is next to the living area of ​​the servants.

In addition, there is actually a casting room in the manor, which makes Ye Li feel extremely surprised.

"Laurent, why is there a casting room here?"

Ye Li saw that the casting room did not look like a newly built one, so he asked curiously.

Laurent said: "My lord, this has existed since the beginning of the manor's construction.

Because the previous owner here was a black-eyed clan caster from the royal family, but this happened 100 years ago.

After his death, this place was completely empty, until now, it was taken over by you. "

Hearing Laurent's words, Ye Li couldn't help showing surprise. He didn't expect that this place would be the place where other casters lived, and the other party was also a member of the Black-eyed tribe.

Ye Li couldn't help but walked into the casting room in front of him, and found that the furnace inside had been ignited, and there were still a lot of materials around.

"My lord, when we cleared this place, the palace sent someone to light the furnace and sent these casting materials."

Laurent hurriedly explained.

Ye Li was overjoyed when he heard this. As a caster, even though he didn't often cast wares, having a casting room in his residence was more or less convenient and enjoyable for him.

At least when he wants to forge something on a whim, he can have a place to forge it.

After visiting the manor with Laurent, Ye Li called Xiao Jin in, and immediately asked the servants in charge of external affairs to build a very comfortable shed next to Ye Li's own residence for Xiao Jin to live in.

After having a servant to take care of Xiao Jin, Ye Li felt relieved.

After Dawn stayed in the house, Tun Ri's voice sounded again, saying, "Ye Li, the environment here is not bad, but the guards around you who are monitoring you are annoying."

Ye Li nodded and said: "There is no way, this is already the minimum surveillance, after all, I haven't gained much trust.

Now I can only stay here with peace of mind for the time being. After gaining the king's trust, they will definitely relax their surveillance on me, and I will definitely have a chance to escape by then. "

Tun Ri said: "Ye Li, you can be a little more high-profile, make your reputation better, and communicate with various dignitaries here, so that you can show that you want to settle here with peace of mind.

I guess the king and the Duke of Wellington will naturally feel relieved of you after seeing it. "

Hearing Tun Ri's suggestion, Ye Li couldn't help but patted his forehead and said, "Oh, I'm also making trouble for myself, and I really hate dealing with those irrelevant people."

Tun Ri said: "It can't be helped, now you just make a show to show the king, so as to dispel their wariness."

Ye Li nodded and said: "I know, I will try it out.

But the top priority now is to complete the research on Juling Cannon first. After the research is thorough, I can also bring this technology back. "

After Ye Li chatted with Tun Ri for a while in his own room, he began to practice. He basically does not sleep now, and spends every night relying on practice.

In the early morning of the next day, Ye Li went to the place where the Wang family's foundry was casting, and Pierre and the three had already been waiting here.

"Master, good morning!"

After seeing Ye Li, Pierre and the others hurriedly bowed and said.

Although Ye Li was not used to their attitude, Ye Li still tried his best to play his role well so that Edwin Lucas could relax his vigilance towards him.

"You don't need to be so polite, just be natural. I also said yesterday that I am only a teacher in name. We can exchange and learn from each other on weekdays."

Kai Diwen said: "No, Master, since we have worshiped you as our teacher, we will definitely treat you as our teacher, otherwise there is no point in being a teacher."

Seeing the firm eyes of the three, Ye Li nodded helplessly, and said, "Okay, then I really can only be your master with a thick skin.

Let's find a secret room to study the drawings first, this is not a place for talking and discussing. "

Ye Li looked around, the Gathering Cannon was a secret after all, and a place where people talk a lot is definitely not suitable for research and discussion.
