When Caroline and Malobek were discussing how to deal with the new lord, a servant told them that someone was asking to see them at the castle gate.

"What did he say?"

"He said... he is the new lord of Red Leaf City!"

The servant said cautiously.

Caroline's face turned pale. The new city lord had finally arrived.

"Please ask him to come in... No, let's go out and greet him."

…

"Baron Charles must have left some property or something when he was alive. They are mine now, right?"

Creak~ The castle gate slowly opened, and a beautiful figure came into view first.

Baker also took off his helmet. There was a scary scar on his face, but he looked very shy.

Marlowe shrugged with a wry smile.

The door in Zhang Feng's mind opened! "Does this mean I can go back?"

Zhang Feng sat in the main seat in the hall, listening to Knight Malo report on the current situation in Red Leaf City.

Zhang Feng quickly and politely helped the two of them up.

But this small action of his surprised everyone present.

"Meet the Lord City Lord."

The two knights were tall, and seemed to be a head taller than Zhang Feng, probably about 1.9 meters. They wore silver armor, helmets, and had swords at their waists. They looked so majestic, and one would feel safe just by looking at them.

Only then did Zhang Feng realize that there were two more people behind him.

"Meet the Lord City Lord."

"Ahem, let's stop here today. You guys can discuss this further. I'm going home first."

Zhang Feng took out the noble medal that originally belonged to Baron Charles, as well as a pile of contracts.

"But these people also took some servants away with them, which can be regarded as reducing some of our Red Leaf City's expenses in disguise. This is the only good news..."

"Hello, everyone, get up."

"This castle looks OK, but the windows are a bit small, so I guess the lighting is not good..."

"Of course... no problem."

After listening to Marlowe's narration, Zhang Feng finally realized that the trouble in Hongye City was even bigger than he had imagined.

Marlowe took off his knight's helmet, revealing a weather-beaten face.

The three of them were secretly observing the new city lord who was dressed strangely.

Zhang Feng did not need their consent and left directly. After all, he had just met these three people. It would be very troublesome if he did not go back after the experiment and some inexplicable situations occurred. He did not want to expose his secret, so his own big house was more reliable.

"Almost all the staff of the City Hall have left. They were all Charles's staff. Now that Charles is gone, they have all left. Not only that, they have also taken away a lot of supplies..."

Marlowe stood up quickly without waiting for Zhang Feng to help him. Baker was a little slower, but he also stood up quickly. They had never thought that a noble would personally help them! After all, a knight was just a high-ranking civilian, and he was a different class from a noble. The arrogance of a noble was engraved in their bones. It was the first time they had seen a noble like Zhang Feng, and they were a little overwhelmed for a moment.

"Please come in."

However, what attracted Zhang Feng the most was her pair of deep blue eyes, which were clear and pure, like a pool of clear spring water, making people want to immerse themselves in it involuntarily.

It was not until Caroline's delicate earlobe turned slightly pink that Zhang Feng reacted. He quickly looked away and coughed twice to ease the embarrassment.

"My Lord, my name is Caroline... yes, I am the wife of the late Baron Charles..."

A simple and loose white linen robe covered her tall figure. Her golden hair was tied up high, making her look very dignified and noble. Her face was serious and a little cold, but the few curls on her temples added a touch of natural charm to her, making her look less intimidating.

The two knights behind Caroline knelt on one knee to pay homage to the new city lord.

He has learned that the winters in this world are extremely harsh. Every winter, a number of people die, either from freezing to death or from starvation. This is when there is food in stock. Now that the granaries are empty, the situation is even more difficult.

Zhang Feng stood at the castle gate and commented on the castle in his mind. A servant stood respectfully not far from him.

"Putting other things aside for now, I want to understand the current situation of Hongye City first."

Caroline, looking a little unnatural, brought Zhang Feng and two knights into the castle.

But Zhang Feng temporarily refused. He learned from Pan Xi that the current situation in Hongye City did not seem to be very good, so he needed to find out more about it first.

Caroline's mood, which had finally calmed down, suddenly became unstable again. She bit her lips lightly and lowered her head, not knowing how to answer. For a moment, her face turned red from her earlobes to her ears, but she couldn't utter a word.

"From today on, I will be the mayor of Hongye City. I hope we can have a pleasant cooperation in the future."

Zhang Feng was very satisfied with the two of them. Most people in the city were thin and short, but fortunately his knight was not.

It turned out to be the former Baroness! After knowing Caroline's identity, Zhang Feng looked away calmly. After all, she was the widow of the former city lord. Don't look at her if it's not proper. Don't look at her if it's not proper.

The medal is real, the contract is real, and Caroline has no right to deny it.

If Charles had left a small stash of money, it might be able to help out in this urgent situation. He looked at Caroline, who had been standing next to him without saying anything.

Caroline bit her lip and said in a somewhat uncalm tone:

Many people already knew that Baron Charles's noble title had been bought. Since Zhang Feng took out the medal of nobility, his identity must be real, so the servants naturally did not dare to overstep their boundaries.

"Lord City Lord, my name is Baker, and Marlowe is my boss!"

"gentlemen?"

She originally wanted to take Zhang Feng to visit the castle first. After all, the castle was very large. It was not only the living place for nobles and knights, but also the last bastion for defending against the enemy. It was a building with both military and civilian functions.

Caroline's eyes lit up. Zhang Feng's small action made Caroline feel that the new city lord might not be so difficult to get along with.

I'm asking you a question, why are you blushing? Can we still have a good conversation? Zhang Feng complained crazily in his heart.

Seeing that both of them had introduced themselves, Zhang Feng turned his gaze to Caroline.

If he could really go back, Zhang Feng would not be willing to stay in this backward and ignorant era. Even though he is a noble now, isn't modern food delicious? Isn't the Internet delicious? Why should he suffer for himself!

Originally, this kind of thing should be reported by the City Hall, but now there are not many people, so Marlowe can only make a cameo appearance.

"Ahem, well, hello, my name is Zhang Feng, and I just bought Charles's title. From now on, I will be the new mayor of Hongye City. Should that be okay?"

However, since he is already the lord of Hongye City, Zhang Feng feels that he has an obligation to ensure that his people live a good life.

Suddenly, Zhang Feng was stunned, and then a look of ecstasy appeared on his face, but he concealed it in an instant. The other three people all lowered their eyes and did not notice the change in Zhang Feng's expression.

"Red Leaf City currently has little food left. Even if we add the wheat that will be harvested soon, based on the current population of 1,321, Red Leaf City can only hold out for a month at most..."

Zhang Feng suddenly asked.

"Lord City Lord..."

Looking at Zhang Feng leaving in a hurry, Caroline's face turned pale instantly.

Her hesitation just now seemed to have angered the city lord!

No matter what, Zhang Feng is now the supreme leader of Hongye City. If Hongye City wants to overcome the difficulties, the city lord is crucial.

"What should I do..."
