our family is gone

Chapter 36 Turmoil
And he couldn't deny the title deed, because it was issued by the lord, so there was no way to push the problem to the dead.

What the land deed represents is a kind of contract spirit, and also credit, the cornerstone of this governance.

If he did not recognize the land deeds issued before, the people behind him would not believe the decrees he issued later.

Fortunately, the bandits helped him clean up a batch, and the mayor bought back most of the land. He had already sorted out the land deeds in his hands last night. In fact, most of the entire town already belonged to him.

Some small parts are bought from those people for a little money, anyway, they are not worth much now.

After a busy day, Lance finally completed the area map of the town with the help of those people.

Although it is only a rough drawing, several areas have been delineated above, and the treatment plans of those buildings are marked, which is of great reference significance for the subsequent projects. At least after handing over to the foreman, he will not need to step by step follow up.

Lance looked up at the time, and probably called a few people back.

"Okay, that's all for today, go to dinner, I've already arranged it."

These construction workers were brought here by the carriage early in the morning, and then walked around the town with Lance, and ate a little bread at noon. Of course, they are happy now that the lord has ordered the meal.

Lance didn't follow, but stopped at the spot and looked at the backs of those people, but a smile suddenly appeared on that indifferent expression...

Back to the square, the line from the brothel has extended to the square, today is the last meal, and everyone wants to occupy a good seat, so as not to be late and not eat.

Judging from their appearance, they didn't see the black and thin at the beginning, and finally they could see blood on their faces.

To be honest, the free porridge for these three days really made them eat well, and they didn't need to work. They just lay down until the hour and picked up a bowl to eat. It was a bit fun that day.

Some slackers lie down in the square to bask in the sun after eating in the morning, and go home after eating in the evening, not to mention how comfortable they are~
But this good day is coming to an end today, and some people can't help expressing emotion.

"If this stops, what shall we eat tomorrow?"

These words spread among the townspeople as if with magical powers, causing more resonance.

"The lord is such a good person, he will continue to distribute it."

"That's right, the lord will definitely."

"I see that the waves washed up a lot of kelp recently, and the forest also grows a lot of mushrooms. I can't die of hunger."

"..."

Some people pinned their hopes on Lance, some people spoke directly, and some expressed their purest thoughts.

"It's better if everyone robs the brothel, there must be a lot of food in it."

I don't know who said this sentence, and it caused a huge reaction among the crowd.

"It's not very good~ The lord is so kind to us."

"Are you crazy? Your lord will hang you."

"I don't want to die~"

It was obvious that most of the townspeople didn't want to confront the lord, they didn't have the guts to do so, so they quickly got rid of it for fear of affecting themselves.

But the crisis of survival is constantly pressing on them, and the words of denial gradually become strange as time goes by.

"How can a group of prostitutes give out food? They're blasphemy."

"Why can those people eat more? Why can we only eat these things?"

"That's right, I think there are more than wild vegetables in those people's porridge."

They dare not have an opinion on the lord, but it is hard to say anything to those other than the lord~
I can feel the dissatisfaction conveyed among them, and this emotion begins to ferment, and people's words become stronger and stronger.

The whole crowd is like a powder keg, it only needs a little spark to explode.

And at this moment, those workers who had been busy with Lance for a long time walked directly through the queue and entered the brothel.

"Who are they? Why aren't they lining up?"

"It must be those sluts who deceived the lord and withheld our food."

"Go get our food back!"

"There are so many of us, it's impossible for the lord to catch all of us."

When they find enough reasons to convince themselves, the process from complaining to rioting is often instantaneous.

one...two...

Soon a large group of people left the team and started attacking the brothel, and the rest of the people were also coerced into it for unknown reasons.

And once they start they completely forget about the fear, and the words become more straightforward.

"I want to eat!"

"I want to eat meat!"

"I want a woman!"

Order disintegrated at this moment, and chaos began to spread.

They didn't know whether they had eaten enough these days or were under the influence of some unknown force. At this moment, they only felt that there was endless power in their bodies.

Those people revealed a different kind of madness, like losing their minds, and the whole person was completely driven by desire.

Want to destroy everything and kill everyone!

But at this moment, a gunshot overwhelmed the chaotic sound waves, and the person who rushed to the front fell directly to the ground.

Immediately afterwards, the sound of horseshoes stomping on the ground was like thunder and fury. Those people looked for the source of the sound and saw Leonard charging forward with a sword. No one could beat him wherever he passed. Just one man and one horse broke out the coercion of the army formation. Instantly crushed those townspeople.

"Everyone get down! Those who violate the order will be killed!"

The strongest fear pierced through the madness, and the townspeople who had gathered to attack the brothel collapsed in an instant, running towards another intersection, trying to escape here.

But on the other side Barristan stood with his shield, all alone blocking the street like a mountain.

Hit the shield with a hammer and shout as the crowd approaches.

"Everyone get down! Those who violate the order will be killed!"

This sound actually made those people dare not get any closer.

They watched Barristan slaughter the mercenary leader with a hammer.

Two of the three intersections in the square have been blocked, and at the last intersection at this time, they swam in a panic like a school of fish being chased by sharks in the sea, and turned to another direction.

And at this moment Lance strolled out.

Compared with the former two, Lance was alone, and that slightly thin figure gave them some kind of delusion.

But before they approached, a gunshot sounded, and the man in their lead fell to the ground as he walked forward. Only then did those people see the bloody body on his body, and the ground was stained red with blood.

"Last chance, all get down, those who disobey the order... die!"

Lance raised his gun and stood motionless and watched indifferently. There was no slight fluctuation because of these. The power was not worse than the previous two, and even stronger.

Under the threat of death, these people stopped in an instant. Changing lanes three times had drained their strength and courage. The first one gave up resisting and lay on the ground, and the rest followed suit.
