Chapter 156: Drastic Actions

Only after checking the new stats of the territory did Ouyang Shuo have the mind to view the new Lord's Manor.

The entire manor had increased by over 3 times and could be compared to the old county government's manor.

The upgraded Lord's Manor was still split into front and back. The difference was now each part had 3 courtyards, connected in a row to form into a grid of 6 courtyards.

Of the 3 big courtyards in the front, the one in the middle had taken over the function of the old front yard. The only difference was apart from the meeting room the lord's office, the various department's offices had all changed into the offices of the various directors.

The lord's office was still to the west of the meeting room. The office was twice the size of the old one. Not only was there a waiting room, but there was a small office for the clerk.

To the west of the meeting room, apart from the lord's office, was the Finance director's office. East of that were 3 offices which only had the Administration director and Material Reserves director, as the last office was still empty. As for the Military Affairs director Zhu Hongliang, he still worked at the military district courtyard.

The patio in the middle of the courtyard had an additional pavilion and other facilities. It made the courtyard look additionally stylish. Between the east and west sides of the courtyard was an open-roof walkway to the two courtyards.

The courtyard to the west held the offices of the various divisions. In the main room as well as in the side rooms, there were a total of 15 offices. As for the divisions under the Administration Department, and those under the Finance Department, Material Reserves Department, and the Auditing Department, all 11 had their own offices.

As for the Procuratorate Division and the Law and Order Division, they shared an office outside.

The east courtyard was a field, and was similar to the barracks in design. The storehouse, accommodations, and canteen were all there. This would be the place for the manor guards to stay in and to be in charge of the safety of the Lord's Manor.

The 3 courtyards in the back were still the living quarters of the lord and his close ones. Ouyang Shuo took the middle one while the ones on the sides were prepared for his female dependents.

The 2 sisters were arranged to stay in the west courtyard. In the past, as they had no choice, the 2 sisters shared the same courtyard as Ouyang Shuo's. Now that they could afford it, of course he had to give the girls their own courtyard.

As for why he didn't give each of them one courtyard, naturally Ouyang Shuo had considered other things.

Seeing that the storms were getting stronger in real life, Ouyang Shuo predicted that the migration project was going to be moved forward. Hence the east courtyard was prepared for Bing'Er.

Apart from that, at the back of the Lord's Manor, there was an additional garden. The 3 courtyards at the back was connected to the garden.

The garden was of much higher class than the design and decoration of the patio. There was a small bridge which overflowed and trees, fish, and birds, there was everything.

As time was limited, Ouyang Shuo didn't look around clearly, taking a quick glance before going to his room and going offline.

In the day when he was at home, Ouyang Shuo wasn't in the mood to pay attention to the forums. One could imagine that the forums were bustling, but they couldn't pique his interest.

After the Battle of Zhuolu, Ouyang Shuo placed priority on the territory upgrade. Now that he'd succeeded, he was thinking about whether to start his plan.
