The Defeated Dragon
Chapter 146: Devotion to the Lord
The day after returning to the castle, four hundred and seventy-six serfs who had spent the night camping in the wild arrived in Flower Town. After a few full meals, the serfs still looked bad, but at least spiritually, there was a lot of improvement.
afternoon.
The sun slanted west, all the serfs lined up on the main road of Flower Town, waiting quietly.
Lister, riding on the back of the Dragon Horse, crowded by the Knight Squad, came to the front of the team. Thomas is trembling with Shakespeare, and he is trending with Shakespeare when he goes out - quite a bit of fun.
“My lord, the quality of these serfs… is poor.” Marcus glanced and frowned.
“It is true that there are few adult serfs, but there are many children who can be nurtured to become knights' alternatives in the future.” Lester said briefly.
Between the words, Gaultai had greeted him: "My lord, the serfs have finally come to Flower Town, and no one has lost them. ”
“Well done, let's forget the loss of navigation at sea, on Coral Island, I don't want them to suffer another loss. ”
“So, my lord, do you now begin to arrange for them to kneel before you to devote their loyalty? ”
“Yes.”
When serfs see their lords, they need to dedicate loyalty, which is a form of selling them as slaves.
Old Granthai was commanded by Gaultai to face the serfs immediately, shouting in the wind: "The lowly serfs, the great Tulip bloodline, the Lord of Flower Town, stand before you, now kneel down to the Lord and dedicate your loyalty! ”
For a moment.
The serfs fell on their knees and in their mouths shouted, "My lord! ”
Not neat, but very bright.
Nearly five hundred people shouted, even if only a bunch of shearling, tall and uneven, skinny, elderly and infirm serfs, still had a slight mood.
Lester had become accustomed to this scene, in Flowertown, shouting at him on his knees, every day. So he just smiled and measured the serfs, the serfs on their knees, all buried their heads deep on the ground, afraid to look directly at their future masters.
A moment later.
Lester, who brewed the lines, said, "I accept your loyalty. From now on, you have become part of the town of flowers, strive to work for me, and you will receive my refuge and live in peace.” After that, I glanced at the old Grandstand as a translator.
The old Granthai understood and translated: “Lord has accepted your loyalty, Lord Lords tell you, from now on, you will become part of Flower Town, strive to work for Lord Lords, you will be sheltered by Lord Lords, and live in Flower Town calmly, understand? ”
“I understand.”
“Yes.”
“Thank you, My Lord. ”
“I will work well. ”
Slaves responded sparsely, and many still didn't know what to say, just kneeling.
Liszt said, “Old Grantham, let them up. ”
So.
A short serf-receiving ceremony is over.
Lester did not stop and returned directly to the castle, while Marcus continued to lead the Knight Squad back to the Thorn Forest Guard Lumber Squad. Officials like Gaultai, who are starting to get busy, have to arrange the lives and work of these four hundred and seventy-six serfs in a short period of time.
Fortunately, a number of wooden houses have been built in small towns and tunnels.
Commercial, workshop and residential areas that have not yet been completed also have many wooden houses to temporarily provide accommodation.
Food is not scarce, bread and vegetables may not be much, but seafood is sufficient, even if it is not enough, and the fishermen of oyster tuna rush the sea a few more times.
“We need to complete the distribution of serfs as soon as possible, and the autumn harvest is coming.” Gaultai said aloud.
“The resource census has not yet been completed, there are too many serfwomen, children and the elderly, and the original arrangement is out of date and we need to adjust.” Isaiah responded.
Blair watched the serfs squeeze into the cabin and prepare to spend the night, laughing and saying, "Children and breastfeeding women should be put aside first. Other viable serfs should be sent to Thorn Ridge to carry wood or stones and repair roads. ”
“This is not a responsible allocation," Gorte interrupted. ”
“I mean, no scheduling until the resource census is completed, then an integrated arrangement. ”
“Well, that's a way to go. It's really not easy to arrange for a short time, and you can't keep them for nothing and just send them to the logging team. ”
……
At the dinner, Gorte conveyed Blair's advice to Lester.
Lister recognized this, adding: "Try to arrange for artisans to do some easy work, including weak or sick serfs, so they don't have to work and rest.” Of these serfs, the most important is the craftsman.
The craftsmanship of the craftsman is the technology of this world and is an indispensable part of a prosperous territory.
Suddenly, he said, "Take a rest tonight, count the list of craftsmen first, especially what skills they possess, and I'll have the servants of the castle assist in the recording, and I hope to see them first thing tomorrow morning. ”
Now in Flower Town, Lester says no different.
By the next morning, he had woken up and walked the dog, a thick list of thick leather paper, which had been placed on the table. Take a bath and change into something relaxed so you can sit at the table and enjoy your breakfast.
Carter, it's time to tell the butler to come over for breakfast.
A glass of aromatic fresh milk, a pineapple bun and milky bread, a fried egg, a large piece of fried warcraft meat, a vegetable salad, and a few fruits.
It's his standard breakfast.
At least a dozen coins worth of silver, especially warcraft meat.
But whoever made him rich recently, as the invisible millionaire on Coral Island, would not give in to himself. It has never been a tough and simple style, and if you can enjoy it, you must enjoy it.
Picked up the milk and drank a large sip.
“The milk produced by the castle itself is better to drink, and I think the climate in Flower Town is definitely suitable for raising cows.” He licked the milk foam in the corner of his lips and made his own judgment.
“Sherlock has bought three calves and now the meadow size is occupied by horses, unable to raise more cows, sir. ”
Lister spoke firmly: “When Thorn Ridge develops, the dairy farm will definitely expand, at least doubling, and I will raise more cows! ”
Because of the increasingly tasty milk tea, he deliberately investigated the dairy farm and found no reason to improve the milk quality of dairy cows - at least not previously speculated that dairy cows are entering pregnancy, compared to the milk of dairy cows outside, the difference in milk taste can be noticeably felt.
Flowertown dairy cow farm milk, not only aromatic, but also refreshing.
Later, Lester wondered if it was the reason for feeding the new variety of grass corn grass. After feeding separately, corn grass was found to be irrelevant. So he decided that the climate in Flower Town was suitable for raising cows.
Bite the pineapple bun.
Lister focused on the thick leather paper on the table and flipped it open to see the craftsman's information on it.
