Chapter 135 The difference between the bewildered man who hates magic and the serf and slave (4118)

Ivita and the old witch returned to their territory in the carriage presented to them by the blacksmith's guild.

This carriage is drawn by two strong horses.

This is a gift from the Blacksmiths Guild to Ivita, because Ivita helped them capture a spy sent by Viscount Winchester.

The poor female spy had just been beaten up by the slave trader, but she fell into the hands of the blacksmith guild again. As for what happened to her, it had nothing to do with Ivita.

Another black-haired male slave was arranged by Ivita to ride a horse with the groom who was given to him by the blacksmith guild.

Ivita and the old witch were sitting in the car, bumping all the way, and Ivita was reading the divination from the spirit mirror written by the old witch.

The two discussed the principles and methods of divination. Ivita also believed that if the accuracy of divination was higher, it would be possible to predict the weather and seasons, so that ordinary people in the territory would know when to sprinkle them on the ground. When to plant seeds and when to fertilize.

The old witch didn't know anything about farming, so she was mostly silent about it, occasionally saying 'hmm' once or twice.

The male slave who was driving outside the carriage, Tartacus couldn't help showing contempt in his eyes when he heard these words.

So sad that witches and wizards rule the land.

Tartax finally couldn't help it, and said: "Masters, magic is useless for governing the territory."

"Divination is unreliable."

"When ancient wars started, both sides would ask people to divination the direction and outcome of the war, but usually things backfired."

"If you want the farmers in the territory to know how to farm, the best way is to ask the wise men to observe the weather and sum up the calendar, let the people in the territory guide the farming time according to the calendar, let the farmers know the suitable farming time for sowing, and know the harvest. Know the farming time and know the time to fertilize."

"As far as I know, the kingdom of Silimia in the north is already doing this, and it has achieved good results."

"In the Kingdom of Silimia, whenever a king dies and the crown prince ascends the throne, they will issue a new calendar to the whole country based on the date of the new king's enthronement. This approach can not only improve people's livelihood, but also enhance royal power."

Tartax sneered at magic and said: "In front of knowledge, magic is just a juggling of crude barbarians. Magic is meaningless, and magic can't do it, but knowledge and people's hearts can."

Tartax, when he had finished speaking, was already wondering whether the two savage wizards in the carriage would taunt him or beat him.

But he shouldn't have been bought by a wizard with only a baronet title.

His goal is someone else—a person who is greater and can better display his value.

He wanted to anger the two wizards, so he did it half on purpose, half because he really felt that what Iveta said was outrageous, so he said the above words on purpose.

He didn't want to be sitting around as a handyman in a wizard's territory, and it would be best if the two wizards threw him from the carriage now, or drove him away.

Even if you abuse him because of this, it doesn't matter.

Because this is better, this road has been checked by them a long time ago, and their target will definitely pass by this road in the recent time period.

As long as two wizards abused him and attracted relatively large attention, it was bound to attract the attention of their targets.

With the help of these two wizards, it is also a good choice for him to use these wizards and witches as stepping stones and a test of their goals.

Ivita lifted the curtain and glanced at Tartax and the groom. "Is the person who spoke just now Tartax?"

The groom was anxious to get away in fear, for fear of implicating him, he pointed to Tartax beside him and said, "He said it."

Evita nodded and invited Tartax into the carriage. "Taltax, come in."

After Tartax entered the carriage, he bent over and stood inside the carriage.

He fell into doubt, why didn't the wizard get angry with his remarks?
The old witch gave him a cold snort, then turned her head away.

She didn't take this person's so-called lunar calendar and farming seriously.

These are meaningless to witches.

Ivita asked him, "I remember your name is Tartax, right? How did you become a slave, and where did you come from?"

Tartax raised his head, "Master, where I come from is insignificant to you."

"I used to be the second son of a fallen nobleman in the Kingdom of Silimia. I loved reading, but I didn't have much experience in the world. I met a scholar on the pier who said he could take me away from my hometown and go to farther places to see more things. But he's actually a pirate."

"I was tricked into boarding the ship by him. After a bumpy journey, those pirates were also robbed by the merchants you met before and became slaves to the merchants."

"So, I became the merchant's slave again until you bought me from him."

Ivatar could see contempt in his eyes.

Ivita even felt that it was not easy for God Pan to warn him not to buy this slave.

The person in front of him seems to be respectful to him, but in fact he has no disdain for him at all.

Then I can't take the life experience he told me seriously.

This guy hates magic so much, and looks familiar with how to govern a territory, which side is he on?
Why did he see himself with contempt and hostility in his eyes.

Ivita nodded, "Then I will revoke your slave status."

"Since you are literate and know so much, from today onwards, you can find some clerical work that you can do in my territory and do it well."

Tartax raised his head in surprise.

Why did he deliberately provoke Iveta, the other party was not only not angry, but released him as a slave.

Tartax said doubtfully, "But master, I am a slave you bought with money."

"Actually, it didn't cost any money." Ivita waved his hand, "You are just an addition to that slave girl. There is no loss to me if I release you, but even if there is some loss, I will release you, because my territory can't accommodate it." A slave."

"The damage caused by a slave appearing in my territory is far worse than the value of the slave itself, and the value he can provide to me."

"From today onwards, I am your lord, not your master. You are a free man, Tartax."

"You may take a seat in my carriage for your learning."

Tartax was puzzled and did not sit down for a long time. "But my lord, a person must cherish his own property in order to manage his own territory well."

Evita shook her head. "You do not understand."

"Slaves, which have low economic returns, are worthless."

"Let me ask you, serfs, hired labor and slaves, which of the three is the most valuable to the lord?"

When Tartax found that the wizard in front of him was actually testing him, he felt funny. "Naturally, slaves are worth more."

"If lords can make slaves of their subjects, they will."

Tartax added: "The lords of Sirimia are thinking about how to centralize power every day so that their subjects can look more like slaves."

"That's not the case, Tartax." Ivita said: "In fact, serfs are much better than slaves. That's because serfs have to pay the lord to marry, serfs have to pay the lord to inherit property, and serfs have to pay the lord to move. The lord pays, and the serfs pay the lord for building new houses, using mills, reclaiming wasteland, and going to bathe in the river.”

"In simple terms, the lord owns a group of slaves, buys them with his own money, and continues to spend money to keep the slaves alive."

"The serf is the opposite. If a serf wants to do anything and obtain any rights, he has to spend money to buy these rights from his lord."

"They have to pay taxes to the lord when they get married, and they have to give money to the lord when they inherit other people's property."

"Even if I wanted to, they mowed a lawn in their yard and I could tax them."

"Serfs and slaves are completely opposite states of existence. Return the indifferent dignity to slaves and turn them into serfs. In this way, instead of serfs giving money to the lord, it is not the lord who gives slaves materials to take care of their property. .”

Tartax sat down subconsciously while listening, and after Ivita finished speaking, he thought about it for a while, and then said: "It's a very novel point of view, most of the lords are racking their brains to let themselves The people of the country became poorer and closer to the condition of slavery."

"But you think that if the subjects become slaves, it will harm the interests of the lord."

Ivita smiled, "Of course, by the way, the calendar you said before, can you make it?"

Of course there are calendars on Earth.

The lunar calendar is a typical calendar.

But making a calendar requires knowledge in many fields. If you really want to make it yourself, you really don't know how to do it yourself.

Tartax shook his head, "This kind of thing cannot be done by one person. It needs surveyors, many clerks, and a team of at least two hundred scholars."

Evita frowned. "That's fine."

"Anyway, my territory does not rely on agriculture for development."

Tartax sneered in his heart, a small baronial territory, a ridiculous wizard lord.

What did he expect from this man?
Even if this wizard is more enlightened, he probably treats these things as toys.

He can only show value in the hands of a bigger lord.

I have to find a way to get out of here.

The other party gave himself freedom and lifted his slave status, but maybe it would be better this way.

It is convenient for him to find an opportunity to leave the ridiculous wizard lord.

Ivita said to the old witch, "It is estimated that we will be able to return to Baron Molo's territory at noon tomorrow."

"During this time, I will first try to introduce the residual spirit into the mirror."

"As for the demon hunter in the mirror, I'm going to wait until I return to the territory and solve it with the black wolf."

He put five ogre fingers on the mirror of the candy house, and the remnant souls flew out under the control of Iveta's magic power, rotating around the mirror, but refused to enter the mirror for a long time.

When Tartax saw Ivita using magic, which was a relatively evil psychic spell in magic, he immediately showed disdain and disgust in his eyes.

'At first I thought this wizard was special, but unexpectedly, he was still a wizard. '

'Learning magic will indeed affect IQ. '

'This wizard might make a good lord if he didn't study magic. '

Someone has been paranoid to the end.

However, when Ivita mentioned the Barony of Molo, the guy's eyes clearly showed excitement.

'This guy is actually Ambrose's Guardian of the West! '

'Great, my target must pass through this territory. '

Ivita noticed the excitement in his eyes for a moment.

This guy of unknown origin seems to have some demand for his territory.

His own territory is the only way to enter Ambrose from the west. Many people will enter Ambrose from there. Is this guy going to meet someone?
if it is like this.

Then the status of the people he wants to meet will not be too low.

Ivita thought of one thing, that is, God Pan told himself that the people who will enter Ambrose from there during this time period are all here to support the two major factions of Ambrose.

So who the hell is this guy who wants to pretend to be a slave to catch the big fish that entered Ambrose during this time period.

Forget it, Ivita also wanted to observe secretly, confirm his identity, and ensure that this was not related to Pan Shen's plan.

If it has nothing to do with Pan Shen's plan, then let him go.

Anyway, I didn't spend money on him.

So, Evita lowered his head again, and while comparing the magic book written by the old witch, he tried to put the spirit body inside the mirror.

For this matter, the back of the mirror had written a spell in his blood.

Five residual spirits lingered on the mirror, forming a soul halo, but every time the soul was about to enter the mirror, it would be bounced away.

Evita tapped the mirror with her fingers. "It seems that it will take a while before the spirit body can be included in the mirror."

The old witch added, "This is the first stage."

"In the second stage, your soul needs to be connected with the mirror spirit, and the soul material is fused into a mirror spirit in the mirror."

"In the third stage, you need to cultivate spirituality for the spirit of the mirror, so that the spirit of the mirror will become stronger and stronger."

"You will stay in the third stage for the longest time. During this process, your soul will be born with a gnosis fog structure."

"And in the second stage, it is the stage where Jingling's potential changes the most."

"The more precious the material given, the more perfect the spell, the greater the potential of the mirror spirit. Of course, this mirror can be changed at any time in the third stage. The mirror is like a tortoise's shell, which is the protection of the mirror spirit. If there is a better one, it can be replaced.”

Evita nodded as she listened.

He can finish the first stage soon.

But the difficulty starts from the second stage.

At the same time, Evita also noticed the disgust and pain on Tartax's face.

This guy is almost becoming a bewildered person who hates magic, just like all kinds of bewildered people on Earth in his previous life.

Where did he come from?

……

The next day, at noon, Ivita and the others arrived at the castle in Baron Molo's territory as scheduled.

At this time, in order to express their respect for the lord, Knight Griffin, Black Wolf, five knight attendants, and Brandon all took the initiative to come out of the city to greet him.

Then, the first sentence Iveta got off the carriage was to ask everyone to add 8 more toll stations on the mountain road between the mountains.
