Lord of Hyranza

The river did not pass through the horse's belly, and it didn't slow down the Gu Bolai horse in the slightest.

After the horses carried Suldak successfully landed, Mrs. Luna and Batra tax collector secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

After the war horse landed, he didn't care who was standing around him, and shook the water stains on his body vigorously, and countless water splashes splashed on Suldak's body and face.

When he just crossed the river, Suerdak was immersed in the river from the thigh down, and his leather boots were full of river water. When he walked on the grass by the river, his boots made a creaking sound...

"Sorry! I'm late..." Suldak led the horse and walked over, showing no airs at all.

"Mayor, we just arrived!" Madam Luna said to Suldak with a smile on her face.

"The troubles you encountered are those Linhe workshops?" Suldak wiped the water stains on his face with his hands, raised his chin, and looked in the direction of the printing and dyeing workshops.

Mrs. Luna didn't expect that Suldak would go straight to the point when they first met, she was slightly taken aback, and immediately got into the mood and said: "Ah... It's just that these two workshops are not satisfied with our relocation subsidy for the time being, and they are not very satisfied. Willing to move downstream, saying that it is too far from the town!"

"I'm going to talk to them..."

Suldak didn't even understand anything else, let go of the reins of the war horse in his hand, let it graze at will by the river, and walked alone to the leather mill by the river.

Bartra tax officer, Mrs. Luna and two clerks followed quickly.

Everyone could hear the sound of water pooling in Suldak's leather boots, but no one dared to laugh at him at this time...

Suldak strode to the gate of the skin-curing workshop and stood outside the rotten wooden wall.

There was a bang.

Suldak kicked open the wooden door of the yard with his leather boots, and the workers who were cooking leather in a cauldron were startled in the yard.

Everyone in the yard stopped what they were doing and stared wide-eyed at Suldak standing at the door.

A stench more disgusting than sour smell came to his face, and Suldak stepped into the yard full of animal fat and leather, looking at the several large square iron pots added up in the yard, boiling inside. In the hot water, there are countless hard carapaces soaked in it.

A steward walked out of the dilapidated wooden house, and the moment he saw Suerdak, his pupils shrank suddenly.

Squeezing out a stiff smile, he walked over tremblingly, and stood in Suldak with an expression uglier than crying...

"Lord Commander..."

He knew Suldak.

Of course, no one in the town of Dodan would dare not know him.

Chapter 852 The Town Nobles

"Commander, I am the steward here!"

The steward who spoke looked very young, with long hair combed back into a greasy ponytail, a black leather apron tied around his body, and a soft measuring tape around his waist.

Suldak shook his head, continued to look into the dilapidated wooden house, and said to him: "I'm not looking for you, go and find your boss, I'll wait for him here."

The young steward was slightly taken aback, then turned to look at the dilapidated wooden house.

A young baron wearing aristocratic attire and a noble insignia on his chest walked out of the room. He said to Suldak with a straight face, "Eh... this is my property."

"Well, have you received Madam Luna's relocation notice?" Suldak asked directly.

The young steward said nervously: "Got it, but our leather workshop has been built here for many years..."

The young baron interrupted them disapprovingly, and said: "We are used to living here, and we have built waterways and other facilities here, so...we don't want to move away."

"It's unlikely..." Suldak shook his head and said, "I need you to move to the lower reaches of the town. This kind of leather workshop pollutes the river very seriously."

The young nobleman smiled, shook his head repeatedly and said, "But we are doing well here. We bought this land from the town at the beginning, and later built a leather workshop. The land here is mine, and I have no intention of selling it. You are the garrison commander, and you have no right to let me leave here."

"Do you think... I'm discussing this matter with you?" Suldak raised his head and asked the young baron coldly: "Maybe I can put it another way. We found traces of ghost-striped red ants here. Do not interfere with our military affairs."

"Wait... We weren't frightened from childhood." The young baron's attitude became a little tough, and he said to Suldak in a loud voice: "Our family has lived in Dodan for so many years, and no one has been able to move our industry..."

Suldak was silent for a moment before asking him: "I heard that Mrs. Luna provided you with a large piece of land by the river for free in the lower reaches of the Dodan River."

The young baron nodded and asked, "So what?"

Suldak nodded and said to the young baron: "Since you are in charge of the workshop here, I will now formally inform you that if you still want to use that piece of land, you will have to pay the land use fee to the town. In view of your influence on the defense of the garrison, that land will not be given to you for free."

"I didn't ask you to give me that piece of land..." The young baron said with a fake smile: "The land here belongs to me, I don't plan to leave, and I don't plan to ask for the land you replaced. "

"I know that you have some background and can make Baron Golding pay taxes honestly, but I haven't violated any imperial laws here. Even if I don't want to, what can you do to me?"

Suldak frowned and said, "I don't want to hear your ramblings. I just came here this time to issue a relocation notice. You are here to affect our construction of a riverside wooden house..."

The young baron asked without fear: "What if we don't want to move?"

"I'm afraid you don't count the matter..."

After saying this, Suldak turned and left the leather workshop.

The broken door behind him quickly closed from the inside, as if he didn't want to wait for a moment.

Unexpectedly, there was a young nobleman in the leather workshop. This time, Suldak's identity didn't help.

"Suspend all transactions in this cooked leather workshop."

Suldak gave orders to tax collector Bartra.

If the tax officer does not come to collect the tax, the cooked leather cannot be traded abroad. A large amount of leather has been backlogged. In just a few days, the merchants in the town know that the owner of the cooked leather workshop has offended Commander Suldak , Leather cannot be traded.

Many people in the town were also talking about this matter, and many people thought that Commander Suldak was a little bit suspected of abusing his power this time.

……

When the young noble came to the door, Suldak was holding Selina in a dress, just leaving the small building in the camp, and was about to board a magic caravan at the door.

Seeing the young noble come up angrily, he asked Erdak: "Commander Suldak, why do you prohibit the normal trading of leather goods in our workshop?"

Suldak just smiled at him, but said sharply: "What right do you have to stand here and talk to me?"

After speaking, he took Selina's hand and boarded the carriage, and the coachman drove the magic caravan away from the barracks.

The young noble stood in the barracks, his face livid with anger, his eyes cold, wishing he could kill Suldak on the spot.

But looking helplessly at the magic caravan that was gradually moving away, he left the barracks with a gloomy face.

……

Not long after, the magic caravan brought Suldak to a manor in the small town.

Suldak found more than a dozen magic caravans parked in the open space in front of the manor. He didn't know that there were so many nobles in Berlin Town.

A middle-aged nobleman stood at the gate of the manor. He had blond curly hair and a slightly gray beard. He was usually well maintained and looked gentle and mature, wearing gorgeous noble clothes.

The hostess standing beside her was also dignified and beautiful, and the two smiled and nodded to the guests frequently.

The guests walked into the yard with their female companions one after another.

This is the first time Suldak has participated in the noble ball in Dodan Town. This ball needs to be accompanied by a female companion, so he took Selena to participate.

Suldak's appearance was no stranger to many nobles.

When he was standing at the gate of the manor, someone had already recognized him and looked at him frequently.

Before, Surdak was only the commander of the barracks and had no right to make decisions about the town.

But now it is different, he has become the mayor of Dodan Town.

Many people stopped in their tracks when they saw Suldak appearing, and their eyes kept moving along with its footsteps. It wasn't until Suldak walked to the gate of the manor that everyone clearly understood that he was here to attend the ball.

The owner of the manor immediately greeted him enthusiastically, as if his biological brothers who had been separated for many years reunited again, and asked someone to lead the way.

The dance was held in the square by the pool, where many nobles gathered, and they looked at Surdak with astonishment...

No one expected that Suldak would come to attend such a dance.

The owner of the manor was very excited. He came back from the door early, chased after Suerdak, and introduced his manor very enthusiastically.

I only heard the owner of the manor say: "It's such an honor, I didn't expect you to take time out of your busy schedule to attend the dance..."

Chapter 853

Suldak lowered his head calmly, and glanced at the words on the bronzing invitation letter.

From the above information, it is known that the owner of the manor is called Marin Martino, and he is a noble baron.

Judging by his age, he should be middle-aged, but he is well maintained and has a good temperament. He is wearing a decent aristocratic dress, and no one can find any faults.

"It's my honor to be able to participate in your dance party tonight." Suldak looked very polite.

The nobles in the square had gathered towards this side one after another. Baron Martino stood in front of Suldak and began to familiarly introduce the names of these nobles to Suldak.

Suldak greeted them warmly, and Selena was always by his side.

Everyone in the town of Dodan knows that Ms. Selina is the lover of Commander Suldak. She usually wears a monotonous long black dress when she goes out. Beside Ke, the milk-white skin made people feel a little dazzling, and that delicate face became the focus of all the men's eyes.

The ladies and ladies at the ball had exquisite makeup, and there were many young and beautiful noble ladies, mature, sexy and charming ladies.

At this time, a group of nobles gathered around to greet Commander Suldak, and some people nodded to Selina.

The nobles saw that Suldak participated in the noble ball in Dodan Town, and their attitude was very modest. They made it clear that they wanted to make friends with the noble circle in the town. What should be done!

Occasionally go out for horseback riding, drink afternoon tea, and participate in some dance parties, so as to strengthen the relationship between each other.

Looking at the tall and burly garrison commander in front of them, some people still couldn't help but look at the saber at his waist. It was a weapon full of blood, and even a trace of blood could be smelled from it.

The nobles stood chatting together and found that Suldak spoke modestly, and he didn't have the airs of a viscount at all, nor was he cold and harsh as rumored...

When the Cavalry Battalion first came to Dodan Town, everyone thought that the war between Suldak and Mayor Marko was a protracted and tit-for-tat game. Deadly, how could the nobles get together to express their views easily.

No one expected that Mayor Marko would leave sadly, and he left so cleanly. Not to mention Commander Suldak's complete victory, Wilkes City didn't even bother to cater to Commander Suldak. Send a new mayor to Dodan.

Immediately afterwards, Commander Suldak had a little conflict with Baron Josh Golding. He thought that relying on Councilor Golding would dampen Commander Suldak's spirit and allow him to adapt to the town of Dodan.

Unexpectedly, Councilor Golding would admit that he was cowardly in Wilkes City. Baron Josh Golding of Dodan Township not only apologized afterwards, but also acted like a turtle, hiding in the trading house all day long. , rarely on the road.

Such a strong garrison commander is of course good for Dodan Town.

But for the nobles in Dodan Town, the biggest headache is that everyone doesn't know the attitude of Commander Suldak.

It is said that Commander Suldak was born as a civilian and was single-handedly promoted by Marquis Luther.

Therefore, he will be closer to civilians.

Having said that, he always judges issues from the standpoint of the aborigines, which is somewhat incomprehensible.

There is no special care for imperial immigrants, which is very different from the previous garrison commanders in Dodan Town...

After the beast horde came, the nobles invariably chose to stand by and watch. Apart from wanting to see his true strength, they also hoped that when he encountered trouble, he could ask them to help him. At least he would be able to owe the local nobles a favor.

But no one expected that the ghost-striped red ants were so vulnerable. Suldak not only defeated their massive offensive, but also drove them out of the Dodan Canyon.

The hard carapace of the soldier ants covered the grassland by the river outside the town. It was everywhere on the grassland. It looked like a piece of terracotta from a distance.

At this time, the nobles found that they had missed the best time to make friends with Commander Suldak, so Suldak came to Dodan Town for more than two months, but he didn't know the local nobles.

The taxation of the small town actually touched the interests of the nobles.

In the past in Dodan Town, nobles had tax-free privileges.

However, I heard that Commander Suldak was behind the Batra tax collector. In order to avoid being troubled by Commander Suldak, the nobles paid the same amount of taxes recently.

In this way, everyone passed through this beast tide period in peace.

No one expected that Commander Suldak would attend Baron Marin Martino's ball when the beast tide was about to subside.

Presumably, he should take this opportunity to get in touch with the nobles in Dodan Town.

……

In fact, when chatting with Commander Suldak, I found that the commander is not difficult to communicate with. Although his conversation is not very humorous, he is not exaggerated or violent.

He can hold a wine glass, stand by the dance floor and chat casually, and his personality is very easy-going.

Holding a glass of rum blended with honey and lemon juice, Suldak raised his glass and said to the nobles: "This is the season when the town of Dodan calms down the beast horde, I think this victory would not be possible without everyone's support. ...It is because of your support that Duodan Town has a broader future. Although you have tax-free privileges, you are willing to pay taxes in Duodan Town. This is the most commendable..."

While Suldak was talking with a glass of wine, the nobles noticed that the noble badge on the commander's chest was a viscount badge.

Moreover, he also expressed everyone's fear of him in such a selfless way, as if he was really contributing his own strength to the development of Duodan Town.

Of course, many noble ladies and noble ladies in the ball square did not understand the mystery of this, and thought that the nobles paid taxes, and they were really thinking about the future.

After Suldak finished speaking, there was applause all around, and the nobles present immediately felt that although the garrison commander had a stronger personality, he was still quite a good person.

In the eyes of the noble ladies and ladies, the commander of Suldak suddenly became taller, and the commander in front of him was obviously a viscount with many achievements in battle. Doing academic research at home is more attractive to ladies.

Although Selena held Suldak's arm almost the whole time, there were still many noble ladies looking towards this side, their eyes full of expectation.
