King: Start with tauren plowing

Chapter 70 Sherlock's Trouble
There is still one month before winter, and the autumn wind in northern Xinjiang is already a bit bitter.

Early morning, Winterhold.

In the mornings of autumn and winter, the sky always dawned very slowly. When the sky was gray, Old George had already woken up.

The elderly are like this, going to bed late and waking up early, spending most of the night lying in bed with their eyes closed.

After waking up, old George put on a sheepskin coat, which was sewn from three sheets of sheepskin, and it was very warm to wear. After all, winter is a catastrophe for every old man.

To be honest, old George is very grateful to the Noxus family, and very grateful to his current life.Although his right hand was cut off, half of his left hand was cut off, leaving only the thumb and index finger.

Going to the battlefield to kill and be killed is a matter of course. People who grew up in Winter Fortress will not be without this awareness. When Old George was a soldier, he just wanted to eat, so he joined Noxus [-]st Infantry Regiment.

Later, Baron Shire also fulfilled his promise, taking care of three meals, drinking broth at least once a month, and rewarding military exploits. Old George himself exchanged military exploits for five sheep when he was discharged from the army.

Originally, this was just a transactional relationship, at least Old George thought so. He used his life, and Baron Charles used money and food until he was injured and discharged from the army. The transaction naturally stopped as it should, and the baron didn't need to give him any more rewards.

However, the baron did not abandon these cripples, and actually found them a good job so that they could spend their old age in peace.Just like the sheepskin coat on his body, many people in Cold Winter Fortress still wear single clothes, and an old disabled man like him still wears three coats made of sheepskin.

After being sentimental for a while, Old George regained his composure, put the excrement bin that had been accumulated overnight outside the door, and then began to prepare today's breakfast.

There were three leftover wheat breads from last night. Old George took out some wild vegetables, cooked a pot of soup, and ate big mouthfuls of black bread.

dong dong dong~
A sound came, and old George knew that the manure delivery man had arrived.

"Uncle George, I replaced your bucket with a new one."

"Understood." Old George replied through the door, a little proud in his heart. His house is located in the middle of this street, but the manure delivery man is always the first to replace his manure bucket. It feels good to be chased after.

Old George was deaf, couldn't smell anything, and didn't know what the baron was trying to do with such little things.However, when old George thought of his current happy life, he became very conscious. Whatever the baron did must be right. Whoever opposed the baron was his old George's enemy.

After eating briefly, Old George grabbed the whip on the wall with two hands, put on a sheepskin coat and walked out. Now there are a bunch of foreign businessmen in Winter Fortress, and they have trivial matters with people in Winter Fortress every day. , At this time, an old man like him needs to be reconciled in the drama.

Most people don't bother to do this kind of thing, because it's tedious and troublesome, but old George enjoys it. For an old guy like him without children, it feels good to be needed.

At the same time, in the Noxus baron's mansion, the Kate family was very lively.

"Father, why didn't you leave with us." Sophia was very tired. She and Kate went all the way to rescue his father, but his father didn't plan to leave.

Sherlock wolfed down the free food sent by the Noxus family, took another big mouthful of broth, and then said, "Oh! Sophia, look at this Winter Fortress, where the animal skins and lambs are more Other places are much cheaper, but the food, sugar, salt, tea, etc. here are terribly expensive. Now doing business in Winter Fortress is like picking up Jinnar directly from the ground, how can I leave now."

"Mr. Sherlock, so you need to return to Rengar City even more. If you buy animal skins, lambs and other commodities from Winter Fortress, buy them in the south of Sisinoa Kingdom, and then exchange the earned Jinnar for sugar, Salt, tea, and then transported back to Winter Fortress, such a trip, at least ten times the profit." Kate bewitched: "One Jinnar can immediately become ten, and you stay in Winter Fortress, No goods, no kinnar, just watching other people make big money."

Sherlock didn't reply, but his heart was already very moved.Kate went on to say: "If you return to Rengar City with us, I can help you buy ten carts of goods."

After Kate finished speaking, Sherlock immediately agreed: "Okay, I will go back with you."

Then Sherlock strode out, muttering: "I'm going to Winter Fortress to buy goods."

"Kate, I'm sorry to trouble you again." Sophia got into Kate's arms and raised her head.

"It's okay, your relatives are also my relatives."

"Kate, it's good to have you."

……

After comforting the father and daughter, Kate walked to the streets of Winter Fortress.

Although I really don't want to admit it, Baron Shire's ability to govern is indeed stronger than him.Given the vigorous development of Winter Fortress, even if he didn't want to admit it.

As an aristocrat with a flexible bottom line, Kate's mind changes quickly. Since he is no match for Baron Shire, he might as well learn from his governing methods.

Winter Fortress has done a lot of things recently, which gave him a lot of ideas, such as the way disabled veterans manage low-level civilians. Kate thought these disabled veterans were useless before. She didn’t expect that Shire’s operations could become useless. For treasure.

Since Shire has been so successful, Kate can copy them and manage the veterans of the O'Hara family according to the method of Winter Fortress, giving them generous treatment, managing various grassroots villages, and strengthening their control over the grassroots civilians.

As a viscount, he can't even manage a village chief in a knight's fief, is that plausible?This territory is still sealed by him.

Now among the knights of the O'Hara family, those who have fiefs want a larger land area, and those who don't want a fief.But the O'Hara Territory has such a large area, how can it reward so many territories.

But these knights are the main military force in the territory, and Kate has no choice but to throw a few fiefs to them from time to time.

However, it would undoubtedly be a good idea to use the pretext of giving preferential treatment to disabled veterans to help the foot soldiers of the O'Hara family and rely on them to check and balance the ever-expanding knights.

Kate O'Hara decided that when he went back, he would copy how Winter Fortress treated these disabled veterans.

……

On the other side, the old Mark who ran out early was arguing with the servant of the Noxus family.

"Do you know who I am?"

"Yes, fat pig in the dungeon."
