Chapter 13 Patrol the Territory

The next morning, in the Castle Restaurant, Narant enjoyed a hearty breakfast - white bread and bacon.

Although it is not a good thing to cook bacon without an exclusive chef, and white bread can also be a little irritating, it is undeniable that being able to eat these every day is already the greatest luck in the world.

"Sir, the convoy is ready and you can set off at any time!" The breakfast was approaching, and Butler Thomas came to the restaurant to report.

"Then let's go!"

The biggest crisis has been temporarily lifted, and the next step is to find a way to develop your own territory.

The first step is to inspect the territory and understand the Storm Territory.

Although the Storm Corps is a "land of bad luck", it is also a real baron Corps, equivalent to the size of a town in the previous life.

"See you!" In the vestibule, Vivian and Quak each had been waiting for a long time.

Nodding at everyone, Narant turned over to his horse.

What I rode today was not the miscellaneous horse "Little Flower", but the real war horse left by Anthony.

The whole body of the war horse is white, and the height of the standing up reaches two meters, and it will become the exclusive mount of the lord in the future.

As for Anthony, the body has been taken out of cremation, and the unified caliber to the outside world is to be killed by dark creatures. After a while, Narant will send someone back to Tulip Castle.

...

The villagers of Maiye Village got up late today because last night was a meteor shower night, and they also saw a large meteor shower falling on the territory.

So last night the serfs all ran to the distant woods to hide, but to their surprise, the imagined dark creature did not appear.

It was not until the second half of the night that the puzzled serfs returned home one after another.

After taking a few bites of black bread soaked in hot water that could kill people, the serfs began to go out to work.

But as soon as they walked out of the door, they saw a team coming from the entrance of the village.

Walking in the front was a tall horse, sitting on the horse was a young man in a silk dress, and behind it was a carriage and more than a dozen guards.

Aristocratic master!

Seeing this, the serfs immediately retracted their bodies into the house without saying a word, while the serfs who were already walking on the road quickly entered the alley.

"Is this the largest village in my territory?" This team of men was naturally Narant and his guards. When they came to the entrance of Maye Village, Narant looked at the village desolate and outdated look, Narant was a little doubtful about his life.

The dirty, muddy and smelly streets, and the shattered thatched huts filled with holes, may not be seen even in Africa in the previous life.

The only thing worthy of praise is that the main road of this village is very wide, but although the streets are wide, the ground is full of spilled excrement. Whoever smells the stinking smell knows.

"Sanitary conditions must be improved!" Narant could not bear the biggest bad habits in the world and silently wrote them down in his heart.

Afterwards, the team continued to move forward, and Narant finally looked at the serfs.

However, when he saw the serfs starting to hide wildly like frightened groundhogs, he felt speechless.

It is normal for the serfs to be afraid of the nobles, because they are used to being oppressed by the nobles, and fear has become a natural reaction.

"Lord Narant inspects the territory, why don't you come out and pay a salute quickly!"

Seeing this, Quick finally couldn't help but shouted at the serfs.

With Quick's voice, the serfs finally shrank and walked out of the house, and knelt down on the ground to greet him: "See... I've seen Lord Lord!"

The serfs were dressed almost the same, all of them were tattered linen gowns, most of them were barefoot, and only a few young and strong serfs had tattered straw sandals under their feet.

"Get up!" Narant smiled, trying to make himself look more friendly.

The serfs only stood up with their heads down after they were allowed. At this time, Quak pointed to the carriage in the team and spoke again.

"Did you see the two skeletons in the carriage? These are the two powerful dark creatures that attacked the Storm Territory last night! They are the Headless Knight and the Hell Evil Dog! Lord Narant killed them in person last night in order to protect you!"

"The grace of God has enveloped you. The Storm Leader will no longer be a place of doom, but will become a paradise of prosperity and stability under the leadership of the great Lord Narant!"

"Cheer, the leaders of the Storm Leadership! From now on, someone will protect you!"

This line was specially customized by Thomas for the inspection of Narante. This is a routine operation of the noble lords. By showing their great achievements, the purpose of ruling and pacifying the people.

After hearing the shouts, the serfs couldn't help but look up slightly.

"Ah, it's really the bones of dark creatures. No wonder we didn't encounter dark creatures last night!"

"This lord is so amazing. Baron Dock seemed to be killed by the Hell Evil Dog!"

"Yes, this lord is so awesome!"

As the remains on the carriage came into view, the serfs finally figured out why they saw a large meteor shower fall last night, but no dark creatures came.

For a moment, the serfs actually forgot and started to mutter in a low voice!

Every time dark creatures invade, the one who suffers the most is not the Lord Lord, but the people who are the leaders.

Storm Territory used to have a population of tens of thousands, but after the invasion of dark creatures, the population is no more than one in ten, so no wonder they are so excited.

Listening to the words of praise from time to time, Quick was very satisfied, so he continued.

"These two bones are not all. In addition to the Death Knight and the Hell Evil Dog, under the leadership of the Lord, the guards also destroyed twenty-six skeleton soldiers. The bones of the skeleton soldiers are now piled up outside the castle. You can go and pay tribute at any time!"

"Lord Lord!"

"Thank you Lord!"

After hearing the following sentence, the serfs fell to the ground one after another.

"This routine operation is really useful!" Seeing the serfs' attitude change, Nalant couldn't help but like this routine operation.

"Okay, my leaders, now I allow you to leave. You can go farming and work, or go outside the castle to see the skeleton soldiers' bones!" Narant waved his hand and signaled the serfs to disband.

"Thank you Lord!" Then, the serfs scattered birds and beasts, some returned to the house, while others headed towards the castle.

The serfs dispersed, and Nalante and his group continued to move forward.

"Vivian, do you know how many people there are in Maiye Village?" To develop, population is also an indispensable factor.

Although Maiye Village is dilapidated, what makes Narant feel relieved is that it looks quite large.

"Sorry, I don't know how many people there are in Maiye Village, but there should be a thousand people. I heard that Maiye Village was a small town a long time ago." Vivian replied respectfully.

"Well, was it still a small town before? Then go and call the village chief of Maiye Village!" Nalante nodded

Originally, when the Lord Lord inspected the territory for the first time, all the villagers had to gather in advance to welcome him and wait, Thomas also proposed it last night.

However, Narant rejected the proposal. Such a show was useless, and it was better for him to let the serfs work hard to farm.

Soon, a guard was sent to find the village chief, while Narant came to the center of Maiye Village, where there was a large square.

Seeing this square, Narant was sure that Maiye Village was indeed a small town before, because the streets and squares that were as wide as five or six meters were standard only in the town.

Five or six minutes later, the village chief of Maiye Village was brought.

However, the village chief's appearance is even more "arrogant" than Narant, and he actually appears lying down.

"Little...little...she...have seen...good Lord!"

"What's going on?" Looking at the village chief of Maiye Village who was struggling to get up and preparing to salute, Nalante was a little surprised.

"Sir...this..."

Faced with Narant's inquiry, the serfs carrying the village chief knelt on the ground and did not dare to say anything. Even the young guards who went to find the village chief were hesitant.

"Sir, the village chief should be so hungry that he has no energy!" Vivian took the initiative to answer.

"Huh?" After all, he was the head of a village. Even those serfs did not starve to death. Why did he get so hungry? Narant even more confused.

"Sir... A few days ago, Lord Anthony said that the Lord Lord ordered the collection of grain, and the village chief went to plead for mercy, could he be collected in the next quarter... Because Lord Earl, who had taxed the last quarter, had already collected it... In the end, the village chief was fined by Lord Anthony and was not allowed to borrow food to him..." In the end, Vivian couldn't continue.

This is why the serfs and guards dare not say it. It was the order issued by the lord to collect food. If they say it, they would be suspicious of complaining about the lord. If the lord is annoyed, it is possible to hang them in the town square and hang them.
