Lord: Marry the villain's daughter at the beginning?

Gray Collar is backed by the Giant God Mountains and there is a River of Tears running through the territory, so although it is located in a remote area, it is also considered a fertile land.

This is the territory that Grand Duke Lars carefully selected for his granddaughter. It is neither too poor nor too conspicuous, making it a good place to live in old age.

If Lena didn't act like a demon, she could have died peacefully in the territory. Beyond the Targon Mountains is the elves' Gog Empire. Even if the North fell and the demons really attacked, she could hide in the mountains and rely on the elves.

The only problem is that it is located in the westernmost part of the North, is sparsely populated and is somewhat remote.

But considering the current chaotic situation in the North, being in a remote location can actually help avoid a lot of war.

After bringing Lind and his party to the Gray Collar, the envoy from the royal capital ran away with his guards without looking back, and Lind finally saw his fiancée for the first time, whom he had seen many times in the game.

I have to say that Reina is even more beautiful in person than in the game. Even in armor, you can see that she is tall and well-proportioned. Her blonde hair is as dazzling as the morning light under the rising sun. Her emerald green eyes have a clear temperament, and she looks even more heroic when paired with the attire of a female knight.

But unfortunately, knowing Reina's future fate, Linde didn't have much interest in her. In addition, there were various restrictive clauses in the marriage certificate. Although he was not a son-in-law in name, Linde had already made up his mind to be a gigolo.

There's nothing shameful about being with a rich woman, especially when she's such a pretty rich girl.

After saying hello, Linde handed the people he brought with him to Reina, who then arranged a personal maid for Linde as a response.

Without waiting for Lena to speak again, Linde very consciously took the personal maid away, as if he didn't intend to take care of anything.

Although he had never eaten free food in his previous life, Lind still knew how to eat free food. After all, Reina had the support of the strongest family in the North. How could Grand Duke Lars not need a bite of food from him? As long as he could find a way to prevent Reina from rebelling, he could probably live the life he always dreamed of in this world.

In this way, while Linde was strolling around the territory with his personal maid, he began to think about how to stop Reina from rebelling in the future.

Because Gray Collar was a wasteland before, and Lena had just arrived in Gray Collar, so everywhere in the territory you could see a bunch of supervisors waving whips and directing the people to work.

"Are you an idiot? You think it's enough to just hit the ground nail twice? If the tent is blown away at night, I will shove your head into the river of tears over there!"

Seeing a supervisor using violent means to constantly urge the people who seemed to have little knowledge of setting up tents to fix their tents, Linde frowned slightly and asked the maid beside him with some displeasure: "Are these people all serfs?"

"Not entirely."

The maid began to explain in detail beside Lind.

"Because I heard that the new territory needs to be reclaimed, the rich farmers and freemen who own land are unwilling to come. These people are serfs of Lars's territory, or freemen who owe money to the Grand Duke and cannot pay off their debts."

Afterwards, Lind asked some basic questions, and the maid answered them very clearly, allowing Lind to quickly understand the basic situation of the territory.

"What's your name?"

Linde was a little curious. It was a waste of talent for someone who knew the situation in the territory so well to be a maid.

"You can just call me Lila."

The maid lifted her skirt and saluted.

Obviously this maid was not an ordinary person. She was most likely sent by Grand Duke Lars to assist Lena. However, it seemed that this maid did not have much power.

After a brief conversation, Linde realized that the reason why Lila became his personal maid was simply because she was ostracized by Reina's small group.

It’s not that Reina doesn’t know how to appoint the right people to the right positions, but the knights Reina brought formed a natural interest group. Whether out of loyalty or selfishness, those knights didn’t like people like Lila, the Lars police officer, who interfered.

Reina didn't like it either, so she just threw Lila to Lind.

"I just urged the young lady to work hard. After all, there are still many problems in the territory that have not been solved. The young lady cannot rest yet."

Looking at the messy territory in front of him, Linde deeply agreed with Lila's words.

After all, even Linde had fled here from the northern border, but Reina, who had arrived at the territory early, had not set up anything except a few tents for sleeping.

Even after asking Lila, Lind was surprised to find that the remaining serfs without tents actually returned to the boats at the dock to sleep at night, and this dock was built in advance by the orders of Grand Duke Lars.

However, seeing the cargo ships at the dock, Linde couldn't help but sigh. Although the engagement was broken off by the royal family, Grand Duke Lars really doted on Lena. The supplies were piled up in shiploads, and if there were a few more ships, it would feel like the river would be blocked.

However, because the construction of the territory was progressing too slowly, the large amount of supplies on the ship had not even been unloaded yet.

The good news is that supplies are so abundant that even serfs can be allocated tents to live in. The bad news is that the tents are still being made.

With this management ability, do you still want to rebel in the future? Linde really doesn't know who gave Rena the courage when she rebelled. It can't be Liang Jingru, right?

Although Linde felt a little bit sorry when he saw the serfs being whipped by the supervisors, he couldn't say anything more because he was just a gigolo after all.

But when he saw that the people he brought with him were also whipped twice by the supervisor, and even the border soldiers he brought with him were also whipped by the supervisor, Linde finally couldn't bear it anymore, and he stood up and kicked the supervisor.

"What the hell are you doing? How can you rush people to work like that? Do you think you can manage the people I brought with me?"

The supervisor wanted to stand up and retort that there were plenty of people who would do the job, but when he saw Reina's maid following Linde, his attitude immediately became respectful.

"Sir, I won't smoke. These people don't know how to be lazy. I just want to make the territory better as soon as possible."

At this time, many of Reina's knights around heard the noise and looked over here.

Although these knights didn't say anything and just gave warning looks, there was nothing more Linde could do. He could only pick out the old, weak, women and children among his subjects and place them separately. These old people and children had experienced a long journey of escape, and it was not easy for them to get here. Linde didn't want these subjects who had finally survived to be beaten to death.

At this moment, Linde finally realized how backward Lena's management system was. It was an overestimation to call it feudalism. It was at most slavery.

With a territory like this, is it really possible to rebel in the future?
