    "They were selected completely according to your standards, Lord Lord. (Piaotian Literature www.piaotia.net No pop-up novel website)" Once again he bent down towards his Lord, and the old housekeeper who was reporting the situation had a look on his face.  There was a hint of dissatisfaction.  "The existing servants in the castle have received their severance pay. As long as you wish, they can leave here at any time and let your new servants serve you."

    "very good."

    Du Ze nodded and looked at the new servants gathered in the foyer, most of whom were a little scared.

    Those were sixty girls from all over the viscounty.  Most of them come from villages and farms in the countryside, and are the daughters of farmers, lumberjacks or herdsmen. A few of them are ordinary citizens from Washa Town.  In order to recruit these sixty innocent girls without using violence, about half of the soldiers in the castle were dispatched to post notices and the recruitment scope was expanded to the entire viscounty. Finally, the task was completed within a week.  Task.

    Facing this notorious new lord, the attitudes shown by the girls were respectful enough - or at least submissive enough.  Many of them have heard various rumors about the new lord, and those who haven't heard it have heard it now.

    "With all due respect, Lord, you have attracted too many people's attention." The old butler whispered in Du Ze's ear: "No matter what you want to do to them the entire viscounty is watching you.  ."

    "Huh?" Du Ze made a nasal sound, turned around, and looked at the loyal butler with some confusion.

    "Rumors about you have spread throughout the viscounty. Many people believe that the reason why you want to recruit a large number of virgins in the viscounty in the name of recruiting maids is to sacrifice them to the devil. Some people say that they will  He became a living sacrifice in sacrifices and was brutally killed after being tortured.¡±

    Thinking of his granddaughter, the old housekeeper was inevitably a little excited and even spoke louder - he personally recommended the former as his successor to take over his position and serve as housekeeper in Rosenborg - he was very worried  Because of her granddaughter's safety, she rarely ignored etiquette and implicitness, and spoke her mind frankly in front of the lord.  "If that is what you really think, I must ask you to forgive me for my poor consideration and allow me to choose someone else to replace me"

    "That's a rumor created by the enemy."

    Du Ze interrupted the old housekeeper.  Noticing that the girls were attracted by the old housekeeper's words and looking here, he also raised his voice.  "I believe you know the existence of the 'Faceless Men', Old John. Those devil worshipers are the ones who really have deals with the devil. Neither my magic nor my power has anything to do with the devil, nor does it have anything to do with the devil.  It won¡¯t be a reason for me to kill innocent people.¡±

    "Where are they? - Where are the monsters entrenched in the corridor on the first floor of the castle?" The old butler continued to ask more pointed questions.  "Are they also not related to demons?"

    People who have no knowledge of magic are always prone to this kind of misunderstanding.  People always confuse the undead with demons.

    "They indeed have nothing to do with demons. Before they became my servants, they were all ordinary humans, and they were all dead. I just used their corpses." Du Ze cleverly avoided the undead in his words.  The source of servants.  "Is this enough to satisfy your curiosity? Is this enough to tell you that your lord is not a murderous, cold-blooded butcher?"

    Being questioned continuously by his butler, Du Ze's tone was somewhat annoyed.  Sensing the lord's displeasure and suddenly realizing what he had just said, the old butler quickly bent down and lowered his voice.  "Please forgive me for being rude, Lord." He defended himself carefully.  "I just want to safeguard the honor of the Rosen family"

    The atmosphere suddenly seemed very awkward.

    Du Ze said nothing, silently looking at the old housekeeper beside him.  The latter was staring at the ground intently, as if what he was facing was not an ordinary carpet, but a piece of exquisite art.  Yulia's left hand gently stroked the hilt of the sword at her waist, paying attention to Du Ze's expression, and slowly rubbed it with her right hand.  The new maids were infected by this atmosphere and nervously watched the development of the situation.  Soon even the faintest sounds of private conversation disappeared.  The originally lively girls all kept quiet, just like the undead servants who were accustomed to being taciturn.

    "Boss!" A girl's voice came from behind, breaking the awkwardness.  "I knew you were here!"

    That is Luo Fei.  She ran up to the terrace with brisk steps, as agile as a wild cat.  After receiving the master's silent order, the two dark warriors who were on guard did not stop her and allowed her to pass through the middle until she ran to Du Ze.  It wasn't until she ran to the terrace that she discoveredThe girls standing below, and the strangely quiet atmosphere here.

    Because of her previous behavior, she immediately became the center of attention.  Not quite used to this feeling, Luo Fei scratched his head that suddenly started to itch, and took a step back at a loss.  "I think" she muttered under her breath.  "I should come back later"

    "It's okay, Luo Fei, you came at the right time."

    Du Ze waved to her, motioning for her to come to him.  His tone was much gentler than before, and the old housekeeper breathed a sigh of relief. However, this overly serious tone still made Luo Fei feel hesitant.  Out of nervousness, she narrowed her eyes slightly, walked over in small steps, and stood where others could see.  It can be seen that her walking and standing postures are trying to imitate her new friend, the granddaughter of the old housekeeper.

    "I know life in the castle is a bit boring for youbut delving into an area filled with undead is not a safe way to entertain yourself. Most of them would be hard-pressed to tell the difference between the living if I wasn't nearby.  "Du Ze smiled at the somewhat bewildered girl, which relieved her nervousness to a certain extent.  He already knew about Luo Fei's adventures in the corridor on the first floor.  "That's not the point." Before the girl spoke, he pointed at the sixty new maids and continued.  "What I really want to ask is, Luo Fei, are you willing to be the new head maid-that is, their leader?"

    In fact, a young girl who has only received basic education and has been a gangster for several years is not suitable for a position like a head maid.  As the name suggests, the head maid is the person responsible for leading and managing ordinary maids. She has power inferior to that of the housekeeper and requires rich experience to be competent.  Since Du Ze fired the male servants and only retained the maids, the actual power held by the head maid in Rosenborg was even greater than that of the average head maid.

    However, the number of people Du Ze can trust now is very limited.  Rather than appointing people whose positions are unclear, it may be a wiser choice to hand over the position of head maid to Luo Fei, who is definitely not related to devil worshipers.  Du Ze didn't expect her to be able to manage these maids well - facing sixty young and active new maids, even an experienced head maid would have a headache for a while - he only hoped that Luo Fei would pay attention to the rumors circulating about  Rumors and unusual movements among servants to guard against potential Faceless Men agents.  After all, Luo Fei is about the same age as these new maids and should easily blend in with them.

    Luo Fei himself didn¡¯t expect any more complicated meaning.  She was extremely bored these days and was looking forward to having something to do.  She turned around stiffly and looked at the new maids standing below who were also looking at her. She nodded slowly and solemnly.  "I do," she said.

    "Very good. From now on, you will be the head maid here, Luo Fei. As a reward for your labor, I will pay you on time and according to reasonable and appropriate standards." At this point, Du Ze turned to look  Glancing at the old housekeeper beside him, he continued: "This respected old man will tell you some things to pay attention to. If you still don't understand anything, you can always ask him or Elena - I heard that you get along well.  good."

    After his attention was diverted from that matter for a while, Du Ze had already forgiven the old housekeeper for his previous rudeness, and his tone returned to his usual gentleness.  "Old John, ask the tailor to make her a new set of clothes, according to the standards of the head maid." He began to assign tasks.  "Now that they have received their severance package, let the original servants leave the castle. If necessary, find Knight Angus and ask him to send some soldiers to escort those who have traveled farther home. Just say it is my order."

    "As you wish, Lord." The old butler's expression returned to his natural state, as if nothing had happened just now.
