Extraordinary Earl

Chapter 47

Pompeii Castle, inside the study of old Sol.

Old Sol was sitting on a chair, with veins showing on his forehead, and his face was a bit ugly.It seemed to be holding back something, and finally couldn't hold it anymore.

Cursed: "You prodigal son, you not only want to free the serfs in the territory, but also free the serfs you bought later. This is tantamount to wasting gold coins."

That's right.Luther just mentioned to Old Saul what he wanted to do, but it didn't go so smoothly.

After hearing this, Old Sol wanted to bear it, but he still couldn't help but blew his hair.

If old Sol was angry, Luther might be afraid of three points when he first traveled through time. After all, Old Sol's Iron Fist of Love is not a vegetarian.

A meal of fried pork slices with bamboo shoots can make him not want it.

But now Luther is not afraid at all.

The one who makes the family prosperous is him, the next generation of Pompeii knights, and he is a baby bump.So Luther patted his chest and vowed: "Dad, don't worry, this money will never be lost in vain. As long as you do what I say, you can earn it back, and make a lot of money."

After Old Sol heard it, he really believed it.

No way, I really have to believe it.Look at what the next generation of Pompeii knights have done and made achievements in agriculture. Pompeii's future taxes must be huge.

Having achieved success in business, Pompeian wine brought unimaginable profits.

Old Sol used to be very prestigious in front of his son's family. Of course, in Luther's eyes, he was strict and rigid, and it was always a serious family atmosphere.

Old Saul is the well-deserved head of the family.

it's good now.

Facing Luther, such an excellent heir, Old Sol could no longer maintain his prestige.

Look, look.

This serf selling is obviously against gold coins, but I was shaken by what I said.

In the end, old Sol sighed, as if his body had been hollowed out, he waved his hands weakly and said: "Anyway, the Pompeii family will be yours in the future, no matter whether you lose or win, you can handle it as you like."

The jar was broken.

Anyway, I don't know how to manage the territory.

Let your stupid son torment you.

"Thank you, Dad." A bright smile appeared on Luther's face, and then he walked out of the study in a hurry, and went to Lu Luxiu to discuss the next question.

City hall, inside Lelouch's office.

After hearing the definite news from Luther, Lelouch was still very surprised.Because in his impression, Old Saul was a strict and rigid guy.

Such an obvious prodigal behavior was actually passed.

Immediately, Lu Luxiu glanced at Luther thoughtfully again, and understood a truth in his heart, the young one was too good, and the old one had already delegated power.

But that's a good thing.

Old Sol is a lord who doesn't know how to manage the territory, and now that the power has been completely delegated to Luther, they can flex their muscles without worrying that Old Sol will intervene at critical moments.

No matter which world you are in, you are not afraid of opponents who are like gods, but teammates who are like pigs.

I'm not afraid that Old Sol will let go, but I'm afraid that Old Sol will intervene.

"Luther, I already understand your plan. But are there any specific details?" Lelouch asked with his hands crossed on the desk.

At this time, Luther also took out his chair and sat down, thought for a while and said, "I have some immature ideas."

After a pause, Luther said again: "The serfs of the family are imprisoned in body and mind, almost like domestic animals. But this represents all the older people, and the young still have some spirituality. Therefore, treat We should deal with serfs of different ages separately."

"Tell me." Lu Luxiu showed great interest.

"Older serfs, we give seeds and agricultural tools, let them cut down forests, reclaim fertile land, the treatment is also tax-free for one year, and the land belongs to private individuals. Among the young people, we will select spiritual people and introduce them to them. Blacksmiths, carpenters are apprentices, adding more professionals to our Pompeii in the future. What do you think?"

After Luther finished speaking, he asked back.

"This is a good idea. Most of the older serfs are dull and can only farm, but the young ones are different." After thinking about it, Lu Luxiu affirmed Luther's solution.

But he still has a question.

"It's okay for carpenters. There are some carpenters in the territory, so they are not unique crafts, so carpenters occasionally recruit apprentices. But it's hard to say for blacksmiths. The blacksmiths in the territory have always been old Bob's family serving the Pompeii family. Yes, it’s a family tradition. Can he pass the craft on to these young serfs so that they can steal their jobs?”

Lulu Xiu asked.

"It's up to me to convince old Bob, and I believe old Bob is a better talker." Luther was not worried about this, and immediately got up and said: "As for the arrangement of the serfs, I leave it to you. I will talk about it after the harvest in autumn, but there is no delay in recruiting those clever young men. When the 1 people are recruited, I need more blacksmiths and carpenters."

Lu Luxiu shook his head and said, "Luther, you are too impatient. The carpenter can say that apprentices can be hired after learning a little, but it takes at least three years to develop a blacksmith."

Luther was taken aback, but he also had a solution, so he said, "In this case, go to Kaiyue City to recruit some blacksmiths. In short, I need to see more tools after the autumn harvest. Logging tools, farm tools, etc."

"Okay, I'll do it." Lu Luxiu nodded.

After Luther explained, he walked out of the city hall and walked towards the blacksmith shop.The city hall is relatively close to the blacksmith shop, and it will arrive soon.

Outside the blacksmith shop, Luther thought to himself when he heard the sound of old Bob and his son knocking on iron.

"I don't despise blacksmiths, but this will be the central area of ​​Pompeii in the future. The blacksmith shop is so noisy, it's better to move to the outer periphery."

A little bit of construction in mind, the future pattern of Pompeii.Luther walked into the blacksmith's shop and found that it was Old Bob's eldest son and second son who were forging iron.

After Luther asked, he realized that Old Bob was not here.

After asking where old Bob was, Luther showed surprise.Immediately, Luther rode to the east with his entourage of guards.

Today's territory is very different from a year ago.The road is smooth and firm, and riding on the road is not bumpy at all.

Soon, Luther came to the edge of the territory with his guards, that is, the edge of the forest.From a distance, Luther saw old Bob and Mrs. Bob standing in front of the forest, pointing at the forest.

"Master Luther." Old Bob heard the movement, turned around and saw that Luther was coming, and hurriedly led his wife to bow down to salute.

Luther waved his hand at old Bob, indicating that there is no need to be too polite, then got off his horse, looked at the forest, and then asked: "Uncle Bob, you really made up your mind to hand over the blacksmith shop to your sons. Follow the development of the territory, cut down the forest after autumn, and become a farmer?"

"Yeah, old Bob prefers being a farmer to being a blacksmith." Bob rolled up his sleeves and made a big move.

But old Bob came this time to take a look at the forest, and planned to reclaim a piece of Bob's farmland.

This is an uncle who loves the profession of farmers in his bones
