When you get a little closer, you'll see smiles on the faces of these three people.

Sean tried to recall if he had seen these three people somewhere, but it seemed like he had never seen them before.

The three of them look like a family... The man is probably in his forties, not tall but has a beard. The slightly younger man also has a beard but looks neater. The two are really similar, a mature version and a younger version.

The third one was a girl. Sean had been to the southeastern region before. He had camped in the wild with a mercenary team in a town a little further north, so he had seen many girls here, and the one in front of him looked very similar.

Almost all the girls in the Oro region have this kind of long golden hair and pretty figures, but they are not very tall and are shorter than the two men standing next to them.

"Are you... Lord Count Weiger?" Seeing him approaching the leading man, he walked up to him and greeted him.

"Who are you?"

"Orlando Divala~Sir. We heard that you were coming today, so we have been waiting for you here." A man in his forties behaved very respectfully when he saw him. Although this situation had happened many times before, most of the people came to ask something of him or wanted to curry favor with him.

At this time, the local guide suddenly said something in Sean's ear.

"The Diwala family is a famous family in Oro City. They founded the Diwala Chamber of Commerce..."

So it’s still a local snake family.

"Hello! Mr. Diawara." Sean also smiled and took the initiative to shake hands with the other party.

This action of mine obviously made the other party feel a little...

"Lord Weiger." He looked at the two young men behind him.

"These two are my son Charles and daughter Philo. We live in this area and are neighbors with the Earl..." pointing to the large yard behind him.

This place is very close to the Earl's Palace, and you can see your own backyard from the next hill.

They are neighbors indeed. I am actually a neighbor of the local wealthy businessman and landlord!

"That's such a fate!" Sean also tried to put on a forced smile to show that he was very happy.

"That's right, that's right... If the Earl encounters any problems in the future, you can come to us. You may not be very familiar with Oro City... We have lived in the city for decades and are familiar with all the major and minor events in the city."

When he said this, Sean finally understood.

This local wealthy businessman recommended himself. He had just arrived in this city and did not even have an assistant to take care of the city affairs. Even if Luke came later, he would not be familiar with this place. Moreover, big cities are different from rural towns. There are more things to take care of here.

What’s more, the other party is a local celebrity!

"Sure, sure..." Sean said and continued to lead his men back.

The other party also specially invited him to dinner at Diawara's house, but Sean refused on the grounds that he was a little tired after coming here. It seems that the other party saw that he was worried that no one would use him, so he decided to take him away.

Ross, who had nothing to do on the way, asked one more question.

"My Lord, this Mr. Diwala is a well-known local figure. Why don't you accept his invitation? Perhaps you can hear some news about Oro City. Since you have just arrived here, shouldn't you learn more about the local situation?"

Sean turned and looked at him.

This historian from the empire seemed to be very knowledgeable, but every question he asked was from the perspective of an observer, because he was only responsible for recording the affairs of Oro City. Any mistakes in decision-making were only related to him and had nothing to do with them.

To put it bluntly, they are only responsible for talking, regardless of the consequences...

But Sean is different now. Becoming an earl also means he has become the local king. He can accept suggestions from anyone, but he must also listen to everyone's suggestions...

It's contradictory, but it has to be this way.

Because many people will profit from their close relatives themselves, their suggestions actually have specific options.

And you will ultimately have to bear the consequences of all these suggestions, and it will only be you who will be recorded in history... Earl xxx built up a city, or the city gradually declined after xxx took office.

All results are related to yourself.

"Of course I feel tired. Let's go, Mr. Ross." Sean smiled at the other party.

With a smile that Ross couldn't understand, the two of them walked towards the Earl's Mansion in Oro City...

Compared to the Earl's house in Koga City, it seems a little smaller, but there are still several courtyards that have not been completed, so there is still room for development.

The team of more than 200 people he brought with him had to settle down and they would become his personal guards in the future. Of course, he had to build a bigger house so that people from the town could also settle down.

Since they had just arrived, there were not enough servants at home.

As for the housekeeper, Sean still hoped to let Kalibo manage the house, so he did not hire another one, but just let a maid be responsible for arranging meal times every day.

As a guest, Ross could eat at the same table with him, while Ascalante could only dine with other subordinates. Although Sean told him not to be too restrained, the huge difference in status still made the captain of the guard feel uncomfortable.

simply.

He was not invited to dinner.

In the restaurant of several hundred square meters, there is a table that can accommodate more than a hundred people dining at the same time, but now only Sean and Ross are eating there.

Suddenly I felt a lot quieter...

The light was dim and the only sound in the entire restaurant was the clatter of plates.

"Thank you for your hospitality, My Lord Earl. I still have a chronicle to write, so I'll take my leave now!" Maybe Ross was not used to such a depressing environment. After quickly finishing his meal, he said goodbye to Sean.

He nodded and continued eating in the huge restaurant.

The wine here is delicious, sweet, and has a lingering fruity aroma, like a mixture of several fruits...

Feeling that the restaurant was dark, he asked the servant to light the lamp.

It took a long time for me to have dinner alone. After that, I walked to the courtyard to look at the flowers planted there.

It was already dark, but furniture was still arriving from the Chamber of Commerce and needed to be arranged, so the soldiers and servants were still responsible for unloading it from the carriages and carrying it into the rooms...

They hadn't finished moving until it was completely dark and the lights were on. I guess they will be busy for a long time tonight.

Staggered back to the room.

The Earl's room is much larger than the ones in the small town. The bed is probably five or six meters wide, enough for several people to sleep!

Lying in bed...

The first day of becoming an earl.

I’m really not used to it!
