Lord of Rot

Chapter 55 The Water Mill is Very Useful
Suddenly, Luobo heard someone walking this way, it was completely dark, and they didn't see themselves and their sister.

"Kill that cripple," said one of them, "When the lord can't control those slaves, we have a chance!"

It's those new slaves today!

Startled, Luo Bo covered her sister's mouth and slowly lay down.

"me……"

"Do you dare to do it? Kill him quietly, and the lord doesn't know. Don't you want to be like that lame man, who can eat and drink every day without working?"

"miss you!"

Those few people were also afraid that their plan would be discovered, so they left quickly after only saying a few words.

There is only one cripple who can control slaves in the entire porcupine collar.

In all fairness, Carrot doesn’t like Ake. The other party is too harsh and makes everyone’s life very difficult. But when Ake heard that he wanted to give an egg tart to his sister, he still gave up an egg tart. The smiling face made Carrot not intend to stand idly by.

Ake was doing it for the benefit of the lord. Although it was disgusting, he did the right thing.

Luobo whispered to his sister, "You go back first!"

My sister grabbed his hand and didn't let go.

"Don't worry," Luo Bo comforted, "I'll find you later."

Anyway, finally let the younger sister go back to the women's dormitory first, and Luobo quietly went to the place where Ake lived.

But as soon as he arrived, he saw the new slaves quietly surrounding Ake's residence.

"not good!"

Carrot ran out, hoping to find a helper to save Ake's life before the group of slaves with ulterior motives took action.

A raven spread its wings and flew over Carrot's head. After two vigorous slaps, the raven flew to the castle.

Flutter.

In the study room of the castle, while Li Qi was reading a book about Griffon Grass, he was distracted by using the raven to patrol the entire porcupine collar. He felt more relaxed now, and his brain would not feel tired when he was distracted.

He slammed the book shut, almost clueless.

Li Qi picked up the bell on the table and shook it gently.

After a while, the door of the study opened.

"My lord!" Pitchfork, the valet, stood at the door.

"There is no need to put tea leaves in a cup of boiling water." Li Qi ordered, "Take another snack."

"Yes"

The male servant obeyed the order, turned around and was about to leave, but Li Qi said again: "Wait!"

Hearing the order, the male servant turned his head to look at him suspiciously, and listened attentively to the order.

"Let people go to the slaves to have a look first, a new group of slaves has arrived today, so as not to cause any trouble."

"Yes!"

Just as Li Qi was thinking about how to use the amount and ratio of griffin grass to avoid turning into red hair, nervous footsteps came.

"My lord!" It was Glenn who spoke.

"please come in"

The door opened, and Glenn said nervously, "There is a problem with the slave!"

"What's going on?" Li Qi only saw a slave boy running towards the castle through Raven's eyes, but he didn't know the details.

"The new slave almost killed Ake" Grant knew that the lord admired the lame mad dog.

His daughter was also recruited into the castle as a maid. In all fairness, Akeke was very beautiful, even more beautiful than ordinary noble ladies, but he still didn't want his lord's back to be stained with fornication with his slave daughter.

During the recent contact, Glenn also felt relieved. It was impossible for the baron to have anything to do with the maid. He was overthinking it.

Ake also admitted that he kept the slaves in order.

"what happened?"

"The first day, it shouldn't be a personal enmity." Grant thought for a moment and said, "It was a slave boy who shouted, he should know."

"Let Ake investigate by himself." Li Qi was not interested in slave affairs, he was a lord, and he only needed to choose someone who could manage things, and he didn't have that much energy to manage everyone.

However, the small lords in this world are basically like this. Whoever loses a piece of bread, whoever is scolded, is trivial, more troublesome than the neighborhood committee.

"Wait," he said again: "Tell Ake not to kill people, and arrange for those people to knock stones, and the castle should be repaired."

At the end, I added a sentence: "No work points will be given."

"Yes!" Grant led the order to retreat.

Li Qi rubbed his head, being a lord is not easy.

The valet, Pitchfork, brought hot water and biscuits, and then left quietly, closing the door as quietly as possible.

dawn.

Li Qi picked up the Grass of Life that he had prepared earlier, and as soon as he walked to the back kitchen to look for wine barrels, he saw Kelan leaning against the wall in the distance, talking and laughing at the oak basin.

The little chef blushed and wanted to leave but dared not.

"Ahem" Li Qi cleared his throat.

"My lord!" Kelan Fosac was taken aback, his face changed slightly.

The oak basin lowered its head and left quickly.

Li Qi said: "Koran, my castle is free to fall in love, but I don't want you to play around casually. Every lady should be respected."

Corran immediately said, "No, no, my lord, I just chatted with Miss Oak Tub about yesterday's delicious hamburger."

He seemed to be throwing away the relationship. Even if he didn't have a title, the knight's son wouldn't have a relationship with a small cook, not even a relationship in name.

"You can chat with me," Li Qi said, "In this world, I should be the one who created the hamburger."

Kelan knew that he didn't get a good impression in front of Li Qi, so he nodded awkwardly and left quickly.

After handing over the Grass of Life to the busy wine barrel, Li Qi put on his clothes and went out. The first water mill in Porcupine Collar was officially completed, and today the grain stored in the castle will be transported there to be ground into powder.

As for Coran Fossac, he said allegiance, probably because the porcupine collar was just getting started, and he was going to get a noble title. Li Qi didn't know what other lords did, but he himself didn't like this kind of person. Porcupine collar, ability is more important than blood.

What an idiot, the only way to go is to get out.

Beside the river, the water mill.

The water pushes the wheels of the water wheel to turn, and the sound of clattering and grinding can be heard far away.

The civilians looked at the water mill, and no one knew what it was, only that grain was carried in and flour was carried out.

"Magic?" A commoner ran back after looking at it for a while and shouted, "That's magic! You can grind out flour without people, pour the wheat into it, and then the other end will crash..."

The water mill has been built for a while, and the goal is big. The civilians have long wanted to know what it is, and they are diverging their thinking to guess its working principle.

Nothing more than magic, magic, miracles, magic.

And in the distance of the water mill, Li Qi was riding a horse.

Grant couldn't help asking: "My lord, are you planning to let commoners use the magical water mill?"

This is the property of the lord and should not be used by the common people.

"Of course." Li Qi nodded: "They can choose to come to the water mill for processing. We only charge part of the food as compensation, and they can also collect money."

"If you collect money and food, I'm afraid..." Glenn shook his head. He didn't think much of the lord's idea. These commoners would rather do more by themselves than spend a Bronze Star.

"Don't worry, they will," Li Qi said, "We will continue to recruit workers in the future. It depends on whether they are willing to grind noodles at home without earning a copper star, or pay a small price and spare time to earn more."

Consumption awareness must be cultivated, starting from food exchange.

If everyone doesn't spend money, who will the lord turn to for money?
Soon, those who were not free to work in the security team chose to send their own grain to the mill for processing, which easily saved a lot of energy and earned more wages during this time, which drove many people to come and go Send food to the water mill.

The water mill is very useful, and the lord is amazing.
