For some reason, Wu Chen suddenly thought of the glorious classic game "Age of Discovery 4" that he played as a child. (You don't need to comment on this in English, the translation is completely unambiguous). The crew members recruited only need to be

Once assigned to a fixed cabin, you can take on the corresponding job. Even if you don't have similar talents or abilities, there is still a slow growth period. When taking risks, everyone goes their own way, and when attacked, they can draw their swords and fight hand-to-hand.

Except that you can't sleep in it, the various famous scenes in "Age of Discovery 4" are very similar to the fully functional graystone castle owned by Wu Chen.

For example, every room in the Graystone Castle has a fixed purpose, and each of the Gisesying ladies has their own talents and specialties. Therefore, a relatively streamlined manpower can maintain the operation of the entire castle and even the entire territory. It has to be

To put it bluntly, the word "female warrior" is not enough to fully summarize it. And "Lady GCLSAE" is obviously the most appropriate title. As a Baron with the titles of Xueman and Falkreath,

, Wu Chen's wife, the "Baroness" is respectfully called "Baroness". Obviously there is still a gap between "Lady Squire" and "Baroness". So it can be generally called "Mrs.

Lady)". According to Tianji's convention, use "the honorific title Lady + the exclusive name GCLSAE = Lady Gisei Siying (Lady GCLSAE)". It is completely in line with the aristocratic nomenclature.

That's right, just as Wu Chen said to the sorceress, "The Law of the Mottled Golden Tree" does not apply to civilians. All female companions are "squire ladies", which is equivalent to the lowest level "Lord Knight (Lord Knight)" among the nobility. The same is true in

Below the lord knight, there is the squire. The lord knight is honored as "knight", and the squire's honorific title is the familiar "esquire" in later generations. Therefore, the abbreviation of Graystone Castle Lady Squire Armed Escort

The name GCLSAE has a great origin.

It is important to note that the squire of Skyrim is not the same as the "owner of the manor". Take Brookwood Territory as an example, the miller Hood and Goldow, the blacksmith Arvo and Sigri, and the grocery store Valerius brother and sister

, innkeeper Delphine, etc. These lords who own their own properties are all squires. They are also important members of the Ximu Council. In addition to running shops to serve the lords and paying taxes to the lord, squires also need to collect public opinions and opinions in a timely manner.

Report to the lord. So in a sense, the squire is also the grassroots manager of the territory.

With the influx of refugees from Helgen, Ximucheng was temporarily overcrowded. Fortunately, the unprecedented crisis caused by the dragon attack made everyone choose to be patient to the greatest extent. The Lord has promised to build a farm on the lower reaches of the White River Stone Bridge.

A Secuda Castle was built on the opposite bank to accommodate 439 Helgen refugee families. The housekeeper of Secuda Castle was concurrently served by Judith, a sword-wielding lady and one of the Gisesying ladies. The remaining 1,000 Helgen refugee families

, will settle in the newly expanded streets of Ximu. As a baron of Falkreath, under the orders of General Tullius, he did his best to resettle the refugees, which has won widespread praise for the lord. Frankly speaking, in this era,

The common people were actually a burden to the lords.

As we all know, there are no taxes for civilian families in the Brookwood Territory who are not engaged in trading. Farmers sell grain to mills, hunters sell fur and game to hotels, herbalists sell herbs to grocery stores, miners sell ore to blacksmiths, and so on.

Taxes are collected. However, the mills that purchase grain, the hotels that purchase furs and game, the grocery stores that purchase herbs, and the blacksmiths that purchase ores all have to pay taxes in full.

As you can imagine, the Lord's tax revenue is very limited. What keeps the entire city running is actually Wu Chen's family industry: Coal Camp (coal, ore, fish), Baihe Farm (livestock, fur, fresh milk)

, Baihe Bay Fishing Ground (fish catch, caviar, pearls), Annis Hunting Village (logs, animal skins, prey). The Secuda Fort that is about to be built will also be the family industry of the lord. It will bring benefits to Ximu Tie

What is urgently needed - Mead with Juniper Berry. This magical brewing technique comes from Vilod, a refugee from Helgen, and the family dedicated it to thank the lord for his life-saving grace.

Recipe. Delphine, the proprietress of the Sleeping Giant Inn, tasted a sample of the wine and concluded that the gin mead is far superior to the Nord mead produced in the Honningbrew Meadery outside Snowrun. The unique taste can even be compared with the popular black mead.

Comparable to thorn mead.

This is not bad. What does mead mean to the Nords? Needless to say? For this reason, the lord took advantage of his busy schedule to meet with Velod in the grand hall of the gray stone castle.

When asked what he wanted in return, the refugee, who once owned a hotel called Helgen Homestead in Helgen, shyly asked the lord to "revitalize the family business" for him.

Ximu City already has the famous Sleeping Giant Hotel, so Wu Chen decided to build a hotel for Velod in Secuda Castle to revive his family business. As for the gin honey distillery, the lord is naturally

The private property of the Lord. The juniper berries and honey resources required for brewing in the Secuda Valley are also very rich. The juniper trees and shrubs and wild flowers all over the mountains and plains can almost be described as "inexhaustible".

The miller Torolf of Helgen and his wife Matlara's only son Haming also moved to Secudaburg to run the new Torolf's Mill. Food merchant (

Food Vendor Ingrid, will also have her own new store in Fort Secuda. ​​Oh, and Gunnar Stone-Eye, an experienced and older miner,

He will become the director of the new mine in Secuda. ​​This is also the new mine in the White River that the housekeeper has mentioned many times on postcards.

These squires from Helgen who "survive a catastrophe will surely have good fortune in the future" will become the cornerstone of management that the lord can trust. In order to reflect the connection between the old and new homes, Wu Chen also imitated Helgen Keep and named it Sekou

Secunda Keep. The territorial flag also uses the emblems of Ximu and Helgen. These small and insignificant details are full of heart-warming power.

Early in the morning, the lord took the Starry Night Goddess from the dock and headed down the White River to the farm.

The female supervisor who runs the farm on behalf of the lord is Ms. Elena, who Wu Chen said "is she getting fat again?"

Elena and Uther are famous adventurers in Xueman. They have experienced a lot together. The first meeting with the lord was at the grand banquet of Longxiao Palace. At that time, Wu Chen and the housekeeper were just

The fledgling adventurer companions are far less famous than Elena and Uther. But who would have thought that the fate of the four of them would take completely different paths after that meeting. Wu Chen and Alicia

It was soaring, but Elena and Uther took a sharp turn.

"Good day, sir." Ms. Elena, dressed as a peasant woman, has really gained weight again.

"Long time no see, Elena." Wu Chen swallowed his saliva subconsciously.

Elena has long been used to it and is not surprised: "To be offensive, sir. It's really hard for you to have an accident."

"Who says it's not?" The housekeeper took Wu Chen's arm and, surrounded by Gisei Siying's personal guards, walked into Baihe Farm, which was almost the same size as the former Ximu Town.

Then he walked into a farmhouse that was about the same size as the Sleeping Giant Hotel. A panicked Skyline traveler stood up in a hurry and saluted: "Good day, my lord."

"Who is she?" Wu Chen said to Ms. Elena with a smile, signaling Mrs. Gisese Ying not to be nervous.
