Transmigration of the bastard lord

Chapter 133 The Longest 1 Day

Outside Peggy's Farm, a group of disaster victims blessed by the farm brandished tools to deepen the ditches between the farmlands; behind the digging crowd, the elderly and infirm brought baskets of gravel to fill the newly widened ditches bottom.The next echelon is two strong young men belonging to the farm employees. Their job is to cover the mixed cement on the gravel, and then the "technician" at the end will smooth it out.

The employees in the castle system may not understand what "refined division of labor" is, but they have already experienced the benefits of division of labor and cooperation after accepting the original version of the assembly line work mode, and gradually habitually talk about "efficiency" .Let the participating labor force do what they can, without wasting any manpower, which has become the goal of most basic administrators.

Most of the cement fired by the cement factory under the Andrew Institute is used for road construction, and almost all the rest is used for water conservancy facilities on various farms.As a foodie empire, Fu Youguang naturally supports the rice planting industry, and the accumulated compost, vermicompost and other fertilizers are given priority to use on rice.Of course, as the staple food of this world, wheat cannot be neglected.Most of the ore mined in the early stage was used in wheat planting after being configured into phosphorus fertilizer.

One of the diggers seemed to be exhausted, and someone from the crowd filling in the gravel immediately ran out to replace him.The farmer who was replaced to rest had sweat on his face and a hunched back. After standing still for a while, he slowly walked to the side where the gravel was filled to help.A grassroots manager who led the old and weak to carry stones ran over and took out a water bag for him to drink, and patted him on the shoulder as a sign of encouragement.

Some of the people who filled the gravel looked at the farmer enviously, and couldn't help but look forward, and fell on the man who was lucky enough to get a replacement digging job because of his size.The farm does not hide the treatment of personnel at all levels. There is a fundamental difference in the amount of daily copper coins that can be received by those who dig soil and those who fill stones.Although they have only come to the farm for a few days, they already know what they should know and understand. Every extra effort can earn an extra copper coin, and the more capable people will be more respected; the farmer Ma Lun, who can be respectfully called "Master Director" wherever he goes, is only a serf, and hard work can make such a drastic change in his identity. These farmers really can't be tempted.People who can only do some rough work may not be flexible enough, but they still have the ability to learn from others; the grassroots managers also revealed that the ten farms in the castle will recruit more employees before spring plowing, and their enthusiasm for participating in the work will naturally increase. higher.

On a small hill nearby, an old man stood on the top of the hill with his hands behind his back, squinting his eyes and looking at the busy crowd at work, with an unpredictable expression.

"Go back, sir, look, the snow is starting to fall again."

Behind the old man, a middle-aged servant looked at the sky and said worriedly.

The old man was motionless, if not for the occasional trembling of the drooping eyelids, others would almost regard him as a stone sculpture.The servant waited quietly for a while, sighed, stepped forward and put the cloak on the old man, and said softly: "Master... a few families begged to come here... It is said that Godwin's family took away another group of men..."

The old man's eyes darkened when he heard the words, and he said hoarsely, "...is there... still food in the granary?"

The servant hesitated for a moment, and his voice became softer: "There are only a dozen bags of wheat flour, sir. The annual tax collected last year...has not been handed over to the town."

"... Mix some more wheat bran... Give them some. After the snow melts, they will have a place to find food. I'm just a commoner without a title, and I can only be the mayor of this town because I lived long enough ...The tax collectors are all supported by the nobles, who will pay attention to me." The old man said with a bitter tone, his eyes focused on the working crowd, and he sighed heavily, "These free people gathered to the lord lord In the farm, if the lord grants them protection, then those guys who desperately rush to occupy those fields...then there will be trouble during the spring plowing..."

"...I heard that the workers in the lord's farm are treated very well... Maybe these freedmen will stay on the farm after the snow melts, and they are unwilling to go back to farming?" the servant said cautiously.

"You don't understand, Tony. Even if these people don't plant, judging from the current lord's style, they may not let those desperate guys enclose the land for nothing..." The old man shook his head and said, "...and, Farming requires tenants and serfs. Where do you think those guys will go to get tenants and serfs?"

The servant frowned, his face gradually turned pale, and his forehead became crystal clear unknowingly: "...those people...are not so bold?"

"The distance from the freeman to the tenant, to the serf...the distance is not as far as you think, Tony." The old man said slowly, his hoarse and long voice became more and more desolate in the vast ice and snow, "...I was elected to When I took the position of mayor, I knew that I would be pushed out as a scapegoat in a certain invasion of thieves, or natural and man-made disasters. This year's heavy snow is over, and my appointment should expire... It's a pity, these few days In the past few years, I, the mayor of the town...have not done many things for people..."

When the master and servant descended the hill and rode their donkeys back to Alsop Town, the light snow had already fallen for more than two hours.The mayor’s home is in the north of the town—this shows the actual status of the mayor. The urban structure of the world is generally rich in the east, rich in the west, poor in the south, and humble in the north. As the so-called inner city and upper city of high-end residential areas, most of them It occupies the east side of the town.

The servant led the donkey and stopped at the door of a grocery store along the street, handed the donkey to the store manager, the mayor's youngest son, and helped the old man into the house.

Passing through the storefront of the grocery store, there is a relatively quiet courtyard with a two-storey wooden building and two bungalows.The living room in the small wooden building is quite exquisite, and the old man's daughter is sitting beside the coal stove doing needlework.Helping the old man to the reclining chair by the coal stove, the unmarried daughter brought hot tea to the father.

"Stop going out when it's snowing, Dad. I'm afraid you might get hurt somewhere."

The young daughter sat beside the old man's lap and talked, and took a blanket to cover the old man's legs.

The old man drank tea for a while, stroked his daughter's hair affectionately, and said to her, "Fenix... I went around Peggy's farm today. It is developing very well now, and those farmlands have been tidied up. It has to be as fine as a flower garden."

Phoenix's eyes lit up when she heard Peggy's Farm, and said quickly, "So have you seen Ms. Sarina?"

"Silly girl..." the old man laughed, "I was just looking outside, how could I meet Ms. Sarina?"

The light in Phoenix's eyes dimmed, and she muttered, "Is that right...that's right, I heard that lady has returned to Amp City..."

The old man paused, resisting the reluctance in his heart, and said with a smile: "If you are so yearning...then why don't you go to Anpu City?"

"Of course I... oh dad, what did you say?" Phoenix covered her mouth in surprise.

"I mean, you really yearn for those ladies, right? Selina, Wendy, Nina, Nancy... Okay dear, I've read the storybooks hidden in your room." The old man smiled As he spoke, he sighed deliberately, "The world has changed now, women are more capable than men. Even my little golden bird is eager to try the sky outside."

"father!"

"Oh, you're a big girl, Phoenix, don't act like a baby."

The father and daughter joked a few words, and the topic returned to the farm.

"I'm very sorry for you...but the little gold-threaded birds belong to the sky, dear Phoenix. Your elder brother has been talking about the city of Ump for a long time. I'm old and I can't confine you all to Elso Pu... My children, it's time to see the outside world."

The old man's long voice carried a hint of sadness, and the eyes of Phoenix, who was watched by his warm eyes, gradually gathered moisture.

"Let's move there together, Dad... our family will never be separated."

"Hehe...my silly golden bird..."

"Father!"

The door of the living room was suddenly pushed open, and the elder son of the old man rushed in covered in snowflakes.The hat and hair of West with a big beard were soaked in snow, and he looked a bit embarrassed, but his spirit was very high, and his eyes were bright green.

"Be more calm, West, are you a little boy who was chased and bitten by a wolf dog?" The old man reprimanded him with a straight face. His eldest son was over [-] years old, and it was really unseemly to be so unsteady.

"I'm sorry, father, God, I can't control my emotions now! Fenny, good girl, hurry up and prepare hot tea!" West almost jumped and ran in, he was so excited that he was incoherent, "Yes Guest! Yes, honorable guest! Come on, good Finny..."

The old man was so angry that he couldn't beat his useless eldest son, and Phoenix stood up with his head tilted in doubt: "Huh? Brother, why are you crazy?"

"Ouch! I'll go, Davies, can you keep your little mate aside?"

"...Your Excellency, it was me who you bumped into, okay?"

Suddenly two strange men's voices came from the outside yard, and West quickly stepped back to lift up the thick cotton cloth used as the door curtain; in his excited "please come in", a blond young man with tied hair left first Come in.

This is a young man full of vigor. He is wearing enviable dark blue overalls, a knee-length duck down jacket, and polished leather boots on his feet.The light in his eyes is like the dazzling sun, which makes people feel as warm as spring even in the deep winter; he salutes the old man politely, and smiles at Phoenix, with a generous and friendly attitude, without that kind of superior alienation Contemptuous.

"Good night, Mr. Gunner, I am Light Ferlandi."

Fu Youguang took the initiative to introduce himself, but got no response.As soon as he entered the door, the old man and Phoenix fell into a stupor, unable to respond to his greetings at all—Gener is also the mayor of Alsop, not an ordinary civilian, and their family has a subscription security service. Pucheng Daily.In other words, Fu Youguang's face and the name Guang Frandi were familiar to everyone in his family.

The magical technology in this world has developed well, and the color printing industry was not uncommon in the era when the Soyadi royal family was just a nobleman.

January 28, Amp City, City Hall.

Mrs. Lilith slowly flipped through a document, left her seat and stood by the window for a while, then turned around resolutely and walked to the desk, and signed her name on the document in one go.

"Send it away, Catherine, I'm afraid I won't be able to help but change my mind after a while." After signing, Lilith handed the document to Catwoman, turning her head away from this important document printed in red letters.

"Yes, ma'am." Catherine took the document and rolled it up into a bamboo tube without saying a word, opened the window and jumped out on the spot, letting the flying beasts parked nearby send this deadly thing away.

Not long after Catherine left, Lilith regretted it.After all, she is not as unscrupulous as those guys like Sig and Steven, and the prick of "conscience" makes her restless.

"Maybe I shouldn't do this..." The future boss who has not cultivated enough to be black-bellied is lying on the table and biting his nails, with a frightened expression, "Maybe... there is no need to be so extreme...but...don't...do things How can I regret it..."

"I can't take it anymore!!" There was a scream in the office, Lilith rushed out of the room, ran across the corridor, and broke into the employment management office at the other end of the corridor.

"...Eh?" Nina, who was having a headache how to mobilize the only hundred or so urban management team members to maintain the normal order in the entire Anpu City, turned around when she heard the movement, and Lilith had already swooped forward.

"Lilith? Madame? What's wrong with you?"

"Don't ask Nina anything! Let me hug you!"

"Wait... oh, let me put down the pen first, the ink is going to get on the clothes!"

Right now, two groups of blue and black Miss Mary walked in holding a pile of documents, ignoring the two senior officials who were fighting with the goblins, and announced in a hoarse voice: "Ms. Nina, go to the small reception room on the first floor to meet Herbert in 10 minutes. Baron Marx, please don’t be late for the first manpower recruitment organization meeting of the year in the conference room on the second floor in half an hour.”

"...Okay Mary, thank you for reminding me. Uh, you should drink less, Miss Mary, your voice is getting better every day..."

"Thank you for your concern..."

Miss Mary thanked faintly and then floated away like a ghost. After entering the office of the Ministry of Supervision, Miss Mary threw the document on the coffee table and paused with her head in her hands.

"...God! The Earl actually wants to plot against Mrs. Lilith... This bastard is going to shift all the responsibility for Badi City to Lilith... That's right... If he came to do this Son, my lord will beat him up without hesitation... Sigh... why do I need to know this! You bastard Earl, can you even hide it from me! God, how am I going to face Lilith..."

Miss Mary, who knew all the truth, burst into tears alone.

Baron Herbert Marx, lord of the village of Samar, had fled to Amp a few days earlier with the tenants and freedmen of his small fief.They started early, and only a few old people and young children were lost in the whole village, and there were not many people with severe frostbite.In the next few days, the people who fled one after another almost crawled over leaving their corpses along the way.

These people who voluntarily fled are treated the same as the victims who were relocated by the search and rescue teams from various factories. First, they will take good care of them for three days, and those with injuries will be treated as soon as possible. Relief with work.While organizing the labor of these disaster victims, each company spared no effort to promote the treatment of its own employees. During this period of time, a lot of reserve employees were reserved. They only waited for the recruitment meeting of the Employment Management Office to announce the start of recruiting these new troops to their factories. .

As the most bizarre existence among the world's aristocratic class, Herbert Marx didn't mind at all that the tenant farmers and free people on his fief were robbed.The baron carefully examined the treatment of laborers in the castle system, and his world view was shattered time and time again; fortunately, he was able to survive after experiencing the northern battlefield, and he was not forced to make any mistakes.Now that he understands that Lord Hydesey can treat these tenant farmers and freedmen who fled with him in a relatively public and fair manner, which can give these people a better future, then he doesn't need to hold on to it—er, actually To put it bluntly, he couldn't hold on to it.He himself is a second-order knight, and the few family knights who follow him are only first-order. With this strength, he can't stand up in Anpu City at all...

After waiting for a while in the small reception room on the first floor of the city hall, Ms. Nina, the judicial officer, the head of employment management and the head of the urban management brigade, walked in.

Herbert Marx stood up and saluted with strange emotions.Although he had learned that the lord's views on employing people were very peculiar, he still couldn't accept that the senior officials under the castle's command were all a bunch of women.It is even more strange that this mother Shura, who is known as the God of Killing, the God of Evil, and who is said to be able to stop babies from crying at night, is actually a beautiful and graceful woman.

"Good day, Ms. Nina."

"Good day, Baron Herbert Marx."

Sitting down after a brief greeting, Nina got straight to the point: "Baron, do you want to set up an overseas transportation company?"

Herbert felt a little uncomfortable, he was not used to this kind of style of talking about business without greeting; but he himself is not a nobleman who pays attention to style, so he nodded immediately and continued: "Yes, ma'am. I am... the leader of... The ownership is hopeful, but there is no suitable place for me and my...family knights at present. I have borrowed the decree issued by the lord of the castle. I think this is the wisest person to propose, The rules established, I'm very interested in that."

"I'm glad you think so, esteemed baron." Nina said with a smile. She has seen too many self-righteous nobles. In comparison, the character of this Baron Herbert Marx is simply brighter than moonlight. Gao Jie; before the appearance of Everbright, she had never seen a superior who really treated ordinary people as human beings, "I personally support your entrepreneurial spirit, Herbert. But you have to understand that the establishment of a new company is not an employment management office." It has the final say, you must obtain the approval of Everbright people, put forward a proposal at the board meeting, and then pass the review of the Social Affairs Department. This matter cannot be rushed, I think, you can form a team first..."

Nina tried her best to give Herbert the necessary advice within the 10 minutes meeting time, and then left in a hurry.Herbert sat in the reception room for a while, repeated several times to deepen the things that had just been stuffed into his mind, and walked out of the gate of the city hall with a face of confusion.

"grown ups!"

"grown ups!"

Several family knights who were waiting outside leaned over with snowflakes on their heads: "My lord, is the matter done? Can we start?"

"Don't worry, guys." Herbert led several subordinates to the warehouse in the factory area temporarily assigned to them, "Frandy's house has more rules than we imagined, and there are several necessary procedures. I guess it's out of play."

Several family knights were immediately discouraged: "Then let's just do nothing and wait for the damn snow to stop?"

"Of course not." Herbert smiled with confidence on his face. "I have seen this senior official, and I already have a general understanding of the current wind direction in Hydesey, guys. When we lived in chaos in Salma , the direction of the wind outside has changed—to put it bluntly, in Hyderside now, it's easy for us to get ahead."

"Is that so? I've heard of Frandy's family in the north... It seems that only the boss who is the head of the legion is better?" A family knight said suspiciously.

"Hey, do you know when the twin demigods of the Frandy family appeared?" Another family knight teased.

"So what are we going to do now?" The family knight who said this was more pragmatic.

Herbert Marx patted his old subordinate, and the haze that had lingered for many years was swept away from his brows and eyes, and he said briskly: "Don't worry, you won't be so bored that you want to drink all day long. Let's go ask now The women workers in the textile mills, ask them to express their willingness to join the search and rescue team for us."

"Oh—do you want to see that lady? I remember her name is Mary? The mother of two children still retains her charm..." The family knight winked.

"Freeze said!"

At night, after sorting out the documents to be used tomorrow, Miss Mary went to Vivienne's Social Affairs Department to talk about private companies applying for loans; she also went to Daisy's Civil Affairs Department to chat with Daisy At the same time, I took some materials from the "undercover" secretary.

After leaving the gate of the city hall, Miss Mary went out of the city to a textile factory - the gate of Anpu City is not closed at all, if it is not for the consideration of being too shocking, Fu Youguang even wants to tear down the city wall - the nepotism last time During the handling of the incident, the young girl with the same name as Miss Mary recklessly trusted Vivienne's ex-husband and lost her place as a regular employee.Now the girl had no preferential treatment and was unwilling to live in the city, so she went back to the factory dormitory and shared a room with another Mary, the mother of two children.

"Look who is here—Little Mary, come out quickly, Miss Mary is here..." Mrs. Mary welcomed Miss Mary into the house with a smile, and called her children to salute Miss Mary.

"Is Miss Mary here?" Little Mary got up from the bed and limped out.

"Is your foot still not healed?" Handing the gift for the children to Mrs. Mary, Miss Mary stretched out her hand to support little Mary in reproach, "Don't mess around again before you recover, you are messing around in the disaster area again." Ran?"

"Uh... I'm so bored, so I'm going to help..."

"Okay, my dear, there is no shortage of you over there, so don't make trouble. Last time you tried to help fix the window, but you broke your leg instead... Don't try so hard, everyone knows you are a good girl , Excessive performance will be counterproductive!"

After staying in the room of the two Marys with the same name as her for a while, leaving the factory area and returning to the city, walking on the deserted streets after nightfall, Miss Mary still felt upset.

"Oh...it's normal to not be able to calm down... After all, I know everything on that document..." Miss Mary walked along the corner with a sad face, and didn't even see the patrolling urban management team waving at her to say hello, " ...Who can be as hard-hearted as the Earl and Mr. Steven Simon...That's...thousands of lives...Alas...Ms. Lilith who signed it...is not feeling well now... "

On the second floor of the city hall, in the office of the general office.

Lilith stood in front of the window, staring at the city under the night in a daze.

"...God...doesn't exist...Prayer, confession...are useless."

Lilith murmured softly and closed her eyes.

"...No, maybe there is a god... Isn't he... a gift from God? A person like him, how can this world exist..."

Subconsciously crossing her arms with her chest, Lilith gently pressed her forehead against the cold glass.

"I'm not self-comforting, it's just that someone has to do this kind of thing. I do it...it's better than him."

January 29, early morning.

In the northwest of Hydesai territory, in a farm on the outskirts of Barty City.

Ren Dama Jindao straddled the manticore. In front of him, several professional experts from the Hunter Association and Adventurer Association were fully armed and stood loosely in the yard.A little outside stood a circle of people, half of them were professional strongmen from the castle system, and half of them were people brought by the two major associations.

Outside this small farm, tens of thousands of employees of the engineering team were arranged in several large black squares. The ten-member team was led by the team leader, and the raised torches illuminated half of the sky.

A knight rode his horse through the crowd, jumped off his horse after entering the farm, and delivered a document to Rennes under the gaze of countless eyes.Ren quickly flipped through the document and handed it back. The knight took it and handed it to the leaders of the two major associations for circulation.

"We, Hydesey Castle, will take responsibility for this incident." Captain Wren said in a thunderous voice, "This kind of scumbag with no conscience appeared under the Lord Lord's rule. As the Lord Lord's follower, We have an obligation to clean it up!"

"Anna!"

"exist!"

The captain of the women's team of the Rennes engineering team, a woman who was two meters taller and whose arms were thicker than the thighs of a certain demigod, walked out of the queue of professional strongmen to which the castle belonged.This sturdy female man is a true native of Hydesai, from a family of hunters; she was unable to participate in the professional assessment due to poverty, but her strength has long been close to that of ordinary second-tier fighters.

"The inner courtyard of those scumbags will be handed over to you."

"Don't worry, captain! A fish that slips through the net won't even try to escape through our fingers!"

Anna's voice was louder than Ryan's, and the leaders of the two major associations who were closer had the urge to cover their ears.

"The sweat of three hundred laborers can afford a nobleman's fine clothes and luxurious clothes! How many nobles in a whole city have consumed the survival resources that belong to others!" The female director for so long is not for nothing. Not to mention, Ren's eloquence has been thoroughly practiced, "Our castle is trying our best to save people, and these pigs are still holding us back! How many people have nothing to eat or drink in this kind of snowy day, and those bastards actually take the opportunity to join us!" Taxes! How dare you put the reason for the tax increase on the head of Mr. Guang and Mr. Earl!"

"Such a shameless and despicable person, God will not tolerate it!"

The roar of the third-tier warriors could be heard by the engineering team outside the farm. All the team leaders and grassroots managers were from the poor. They were very touched by such inflammatory words, and immediately killed them.

"kill!"

"kill!"

The crowd was excited, and the roaring and tsunami-like killing sounds moved the professional powerhouses from the two major associations in the center of the crowd.It would be a lie to say how much they understand the anger of these people who are motivated by money to join the castle's disaster relief.However, it has been many days since disaster relief was dispatched, and it is impossible to be completely untouched by the weak and fragile vitality of the people at the bottom and the desolate and miserable situation.

"Huh..." The leader of the Hunter Association, a gold medal hunter, sighed, and silently unscrewed the mechanism of the magic core wristband on his wrist; a battle tonight was inevitable, and he didn't have much resistance to clearing up those nobles—anyway, there were people No one can blame the Hunter Association for taking the blame.

The leader of the Adventurer's Association, a third-rank walker, clenched the dagger hidden in his sleeve amidst the tsunami-like shouts of killing.Hydesy's strength...maybe need to be reassessed.

Captain Renn waited for the shouting to stop for a while, then pulled out the big sword behind his back and raised it into the air: "From the inner city of Batty City to the city hall, no one will be left alive!!"

Southwest of Hydesside Territory, outside the town of Alsop.

Under the leadership of several platoon leaders, the soldiers of the Haidesai People's Army gathered at the east side of the town gate in the dark, waited for the signal to be issued, and then proceeded to dismantle the arrow tower and occupy the city wall.Superintendent Ryan Bartlett led the city superintendents to wait outside the town. After the People's Army took the city gate, their main task was to control the main streets in the town, set up roadblocks, and enforce the curfew.

At various intersections outside the town, trainee guards from the security department have taken organized employees and victims to occupy the intersections to prevent people from escaping indiscriminately.

The area of ​​Alsop Town is no smaller than Anpu City, and there are 20 residents. However, due to some legacy problems, there are only more than [-] families in the town who have obtained titles, so they have never been awarded the title of the city.These noble families live more comfortably in this small town than their comrades-in-arms of the same class, and each family has considerable combat power; because of this, it is absolutely impossible for the castle to keep hands with these families-the teeth are too sharp If you don't kill a dog right away, you'll be in trouble if you get bitten.Therefore, whether Fu Youguang, Sig, or Lilith, the attitude towards them is to directly amplify the killer: Davis, the third-level spellcaster with the highest combat power in Heidesai.

Uh, although it hurts self-esteem, Brother Guang himself has a good half body-but in terms of lethality, it is probably a fraction of Mr. Black Mage...

A bone bird flew around the town a few times, neighed a few times and landed on the city gate.The soldiers of the People's Army received the signal, took out the flying hook and threw it on the arrow tower, climbed, held down the archer at close range, and seized the arrow tower in one go.

Amidst the dull "click, click", the suspension bridge was lowered, the city gate was opened, and Baron Ryan Bartlett whistled, and the city superintendent rushed into the town in a row.

Fu Youguang and Davis followed the city superintendent into the town. After the barricades were set up and no disturbed ordinary townspeople came out to wander around, Mr. Davis could once again demonstrate his team battle as a black magician. ability.If any egg is so painful that it provides a third-tier powerhouse, and Davis can't take it in a short time, Fu Youguang will have a chance to appear on the stage-don't forget to use the power of faith to fight, just rely on Wang Baquan It is also invincible below the demigod.

The police superintendents set up roadblocks in a busy but orderly manner. Before the black magician officially attacked, Fu Youguang couldn't help repeating: "Remember not to strike too hard, let the women, children, old and weak go first. Don't kill those who don't resist, throwing them into the mining area is just like labor..."

Davis looked helpless: "You have repeated it more than 100 times, Your Excellency."

"No matter how small a mosquito is, it's still meat. Aren't we short of labor?"

"You can kill me..."

"I'll go, who did you learn this from?"
