Chapter 44 - 44 Deliberations at Peter's Holy Square
The next day.
...
In the early morning, Sulian, along with his grandfather and grandson, got up early.
They were dressed in exquisite noble attire and had their makeup carefully done. It was obvious that this was not just an ordinary outing.
Sulian, surprisingly, also wore a pair of glasses, giving him an elegant look.
"Ah~ Are you going to be busy?" Nalin asked with a yawn. She had just woken up.
"Yes. How did you sleep last night?" Sulian asked.
"Much more comfortably than in the bed at the academy," Nalin said.
"That's good," Sulian said.
The three of them tidied up their attire, checked the items in their respective magic rings, and confirmed that nothing was missing.
"We're going to have a discussion at Peter's Holy Square. All the nobles, manor owners, and village and town mayors in the entire territory will be there. It's about the future agricultural reform and economic issues of the territory. Do you want to come and take a look?" Sulian asked.
Agriculture and the economy? Nalin was taken aback.
Could it be related to what he said last night?
"If you want to go, we can wait for you. There's still time," Sulian smiled. He could see Nalin's intention.
"Don't blame me if we're late," Nalin said.
We can just fly there if necessary," Sulian said.
After going to wash up briefly, Nalin left with bread, fried eggs, and milk in hand.
...
Peter's Holy.
That was the name of the city near the manor and also the name of the entire territory.
In Peter's Holy Square now, a large number of people dressed in luxurious attire had already taken their seats in the arranged positions. In the middle of the square was a raised platform that had been set up, waiting for the arrival of important figures.
The surrounding streets were also crowded. Many vendors in the city and people who came to watch the excitement had squeezed in here.
Because they had all heard that today, their Lord Prince Ersha had something very important to announce.
"Tsk! What on earth is the prince going to do? He actually set the deadline for all land acquisitions from us to today. It's really annoying!"
"Yeah, I don't know what he's up to. I still don't dare to plant in the lands I originally rented. If we delay any longer, the spring plowing season will be over!"
"The same goes for the surroundings. So many commoners have crowded around. Couldn't he have chosen a quiet place like a cathedral for the discussion?"
The nobles and manor owners didn't hide their arrogance at all.
Even the village and town mayors sitting with them seemed to be inferior in their eyes.
Fortunately, the rising spring sun was very warm, and the gentle breeze could soothe the restlessness in their hearts.
"Here they come..."
At this moment, someone in the crowd whispered.
Suddenly, from the main street, led by ten Frost Blade Riders and escorted by a large group of elite private troops, a luxurious carriage slowly drove over.
Prince Ersha had arrived!
Under the respectful gazes of everyone, the carriage drove into the square and stopped beside the raised platform.
Ersha, Poli, and Sulian got off the carriage one after another. After leaving Nalin in the carriage, they slowly walked up the platform.
Suddenly, the nobles below the stage stood up and saluted.
With the prince standing, how dare they sit?
...
"Everyone, you've been waiting for a long time," Ersha said in a dignified voice.
"Not at all. It's our honor to wait for the arrival of Your Highness the Prince," a noble said first.
"Alright, everyone, take a seat," Ersha said.
Everyone was taken aback.
Sit? How could they sit?
If the prince didn't move a chair and sit down, how dare they sit below?
"Take a seat. Today's discussion will be a bit long, so don't worry too much about trivial matters," Poli said with a faint smile.
"Since Lord Poli has said so, we'll take your kind offer," they said.
Only then did everyone dare to sit down.
Ersha looked at the people who had sat down, confirmed that no one was late, and also signaled the soldiers below the stage.
The soldiers understood. The ten Frost Blade Riders immediately, as arranged, formed a circle around the outer perimeter of the square. And they were all in designated positions to ensure that there were no residents behind them and that their view would not be blocked.
"Wow, it looks so solemn. This is the first time we've seen Lord Prince Ersha hold a discussion in public, right? It's all open?"
"It must be something big! I heard that in the past, they either held discussions in the manor or in the cathedral."
"Is that young man Lord Lendel? He actually came along. By the way, his hair color is silver-white. He looks so cute."
The surrounding residents also whispered among themselves. Obviously, they all realized that today would be a very important discussion.
...
"I won't say any more unnecessary words. Today's discussion content is quite long, and I don't want to waste meaningless time."
As Ersha spoke, a stack of documents appeared in his hand.
At the same time, a stack of documents also appeared in the hands of Poli and Sulian, which puzzled everyone.
So many? And what was the twelve-year-old Lord Lendel going to say?
"Next, no matter what I announce, please try to keep quiet, especially control your emotions and don't get too excited," Ersha said as a precaution.
Everyone became even more puzzled.
Especially the nobles and manor owners. They vaguely sensed something and were a bit uneasy.
"Then first, I'll show you some new types of machinery, and then we'll start today's discussion based on that," Ersha said and signaled the soldiers below the stage.
Amid everyone's confusion, the rumble of machinery came from the main street.
The source of this c𝓸ntent is freewebnøvel.coɱ.
Five machines with different and even somewhat strange appearances, moving slowly into the square with their strange track operation methods. The onlookers around also couldn't help but make way for these machines.
What were these? What were they for? They weren't things for fighting, were they?
"Everyone must be very curious about these things invented by my grandson, Sulman Lendel. Now, let's invite our talented mechanic to give you a brief introduction," Ersha said with a faint smile.
Invented by Prince Ersha's grandson?
He was a talented mechanic? They hadn't heard any news about this at all!
Everyone looked at Sulian, who was wearing glasses specially today. He did have the look of a researcher, but they were still very confused.
"Let me introduce myself briefly first. After all, I rarely show up in public. I like to tinker with things myself, so you don't know much about me. My name is Sulman Lendel. I'm also honored that my grandfather has asked me to give this explanation in person. It can be regarded as the best display
of my learning achievements from sneaking into the Knight Research Institute," Sulian said, briefly creating a new image of himself.
He really rarely showed up. He avoided all kinds of noble banquets since he was a child. So the nobles present had a very weak impression of him.
Not to mention the common people. He wasn't the type to like walking around with servants. Basically, everyone only knew of him but had rarely seen him.
"So Lord Little Lendel is someone who likes to study machinery. No wonder we don't see him often," someone said.
"But what did he invent? It doesn't look like something for fighting either."
"It must be something good. Didn't you see how solemn Lord Ersha is?"
The people around quickly accepted this setting of the talented mechanic young master of the prince's family.
Sulian was also very satisfied with this result.
...
"Then, let me solemnly introduce to you these five magic-powered plowing machines that will change the agricultural model!" Sulian stretched out his hand and pointed directly at the five machines and said.
