"Avery will never betray your trust."
Lynn acknowledged and said, "Very good."
"Apart from labor, if there is anything else lacking in construction, you can find Steward Kuisi."
"As long as it's something missing for the building work, you can have her arrange it for you at any time."
Avery bowed again, "Thank you, Master."
After completing the report and confirming that nothing was omitted, Avery then left Lord's Square.
With a team of construction workers pushing wooden wheelbarrows, loaded with a large number of iron tools for paving the red brick road.
Trowels, pickaxes, iron rakes, and so on.
Even though the spring plowing and planting had already ended.
The plow oxen and draft horses were freed from the fields.
However, there are so many places in the territory that require plow oxen and draft horses.
The open-pit iron mine, coal mine, and salt mine all require draft horses to pull the draught wagons.
The townsmen can only rely on manual traction to drag heavy loads.
However, compared to carrying loads with baskets, the efficiency and speed of the two-wheeled wheelbarrow are much faster.
It also maximizes the townsmen's physical energy savings.
Watching Avery gradually disappearing toward the distant mountains and forests.
Lynn withdrew his gaze.
Looking at the darkening sky, Lynn thought of the direction of the castle and walked away.
As he walked, Lynn said to the guard, "Summon Petra, La Ailin, and Xenophon to see me!"
The three guards responded and withdrew.
Returning to the castle.
Lynn sat on the lord's throne, waiting quietly.
Soon after the castle construction was completed, Colin and his men had crafted this lord's throne.
He had sat on the lord's throne less than ten times.
Mainly because he was not accustomed to it.
Sitting alone on the lord's throne, below the steps, were the persons in charge of various industries in the territory.
Everyone was watching him with wide eyes, waiting for his speech and inquiries.
He is the lord of this territory, the lord of all in the territory.
Those standing below the lord should be the ones nervous and fearful in the presence of Master Lynn on the lord's throne!
As Master Lynn, the lord can freely handle them and determine their lives and deaths!
Lynn also understood.
He must quickly adapt to the feeling of sitting on the lord's throne.
Because, once the territory's development stabilizes and a sound government structure is established.
He would no longer need to personally handle every affair like now.
He only needs to summon the relevant persons in charge, issue orders to them!
Rewards for completing the order within the required time.
Severe punishment for failing to do so!
This is what a true lord should be!
However, reaching this point requires a long time.
As Lynn acclimates to the lord's throne.
Footsteps sounded from across the hall, several tens of meters away up the stairs.
Lynn looked over.
Under the guard's lead, Erin, Petra, and Xenophon, the three scholars, ascended the stairs, passing through the reception hall, and headed towards him.
The three scholars stopped seven or eight meters in front of Lynn at the edge of the lord throne platform stairs.
In unison, they bent down in a scholar's salute, straightening up afterward, and their voices sounded uniformly, "Lord."
Lynn pondered for a moment, "Three scholars, we have met a few times, so I won't waste words with you."
"The guards summoned you here because there are significant matters needing your assistance."
Erin and the other two nodded, eyes on Lynn sitting on the lord's throne, waiting for him to continue speaking.
Lynn's gaze shifted to Erin standing at the edge.
"Scholar Erin, has the territorial law been drafted?"
Feeling Lynn's downward gaze, a hint of nervousness arose in Erin's heart.
Her words were filled with tension, "Lord… the territorial law is not yet completed, Erin needs more time..."
Lynn responded, "Alright, Scholar Erin, but I need a specific timeframe."
Erin's heart grew even more tense.
Previously, she had walked alongside Master Lynn.
At that time, she did not feel such a strong pressure from Master Lynn as a superior.
Erin quickly said, "Master, a month's time, I need one more month to submit the initial draft of the territorial law for your review!"
Lynn nodded, "Then it will be a month's time."
"There is one more thing, Scholar Erin."
"I need to establish a territory court on the land, temporarily appointing you as judge, handling some daily disputes on my behalf."
Upon hearing this.
Erin's face was momentarily shocked, she asked somewhat incredulously.
"Temporary judge? Master Lynn, you mean that I will?"
It wasn't just Erin.
Petra and Xenophon beside her also showed a look of envy.
Lynn replied, "Yes, Lady Aileen, temporarily as a judge, handling daily disputes according to the territorial law."
Hearing the same words again from Lynn's mouth, Erin took a few deep breaths to calm her somewhat rapid breathing.
A few seconds later.
Erin bowed deeply, making a grand salute, her speech full of respect, "Thank you for your trust, Master Lynn."
Though it is only temporary, for Erin, it's not just because she can become a manager.
But also because she herself specializes in the study of laws and regulations.
