forest kingdom

Chapter 272 Reward, hired worker

There is no benefit in continuing the fight. Maintaining peace for no reason will easily lead to the revenge of the bandits.

This is the way the barbarians think. If you lose a place, you must take revenge.

The best way to get along with savages, with a group of bandits, is to make them afraid.

The best way is to make them disappear.

We can't make these people disappear now, so we can only make them afraid first.

"Go back and tell the nobles in the earl's territory that if the earl's descendants are unable to make a rational choice, come and discuss the matter with me."

"Then we will not go to the Western Kingdom this year, but go south to settle accounts with them!"

The count's men have surrendered, but only one person was released and provided with bread and water for him to eat in the past few days. The rest are still here as slaves.

Lawrence sat on a chair, with Kharan and Salil standing behind him, and in front of him squatted Sophia holding an iron shield. He looked like a barbarian king who paid great attention to enjoyment, but in fact he was afraid of death.

However, he is not the only one who is afraid of death.

Lawrence looked at the knights kneeling five or six meters away.

"You are so ready to say you want to be a slave, but have you heard about my deeds here before?"

The kneeling middle-aged knight said honestly: "Yes, benevolent prophet, the merchants on the road said that you will not kill slaves here, but will also give slaves three meals and allow them to work for three years before they are free."

Lawrence nodded, "Yes, the rumors are true. Although you guys are cowardly, you still chose to run away instead of going against me."

"I allow you to be slaves here, and allow you to get three meals a day, wine and meat through hard work, and a separate residence. I will not let you sleep with cattle, sheep, pigs and dogs."

The middle-aged knight breathed a sigh of relief, "Thank you, merciful prophet!"

"Reglo, take them down to rest and let your female warriors take care of them. Don't let them escape."

Lawrence told Reguero about the special mission.

Reglo didn't understand, "Yes, Master."

Lawrence planned to explain it alone later.

At present, according to Lawrence's rules here, it is easier for people of similar age to match together.

It is easy for young girls and young boys to get together, but many widows are difficult to deal with. Even if a man marries two or three, he cannot take care of them.

No matter what time of year, there is always something wrong, especially the climate and diet here in the north determine that some older women are really unattractive. They have long passed the years when God took special care of them.

There are many women who are very healthy, but no one is willing to favor them because of their obesity, face, or personality, so they cannot become mothers. This troubles Lawrence because they are obviously very strong.

In order to prevent some aunts and old women with endocrine disorders from harassing young people, Lawrence has always encouraged these people to find new people from the Water City to start families.

However, the men in the water city also look down on these women, which proves that soft ones are not enough, and they can only be hard ones.

Lawrence watched as nine strong men left the house, nine bastards who really could have been used as brutes.

Fleiss didn't understand why Lawrence was so kind.

"Prophet, why do you give them food and wine?"

Lawrence explained: "They still have uses." Upon seeing this, Fleiss asked: "So are you going to the west or the south this year?"

"It depends on those people's choices." Lawrence added: "Your village is right in the middle. If you want to leave, leave. If you want to continue working for me, then bring your family and friends here. , I will arrange shelter and fields for them.”

Fleiss said decisively: "Yes, Prophet, we are willing to become soldiers in your territory."

Lawrence nodded with satisfaction, "Very good. Based on your military exploits, I will allow you to be canonized as knights after you accumulate a certain amount of honors, and let you establish a knighthood in my newly established territory."

The reward Lawrence promised excited the two dozen savages.

Fleiss and others soon set off to pick up the family, and Lawrence also began to bury the fallen warriors.

Lawrence focused on cultivating the next generation and rewarded those soldiers who fought bravely with wine, clothes and chickens.

Everyone held a celebration, eating, drinking, dancing and singing, and the joyful atmosphere washed away the sadness.

Lawrence saw many fat ladies munching potatoes silently in the corner, and saw some young men and women getting thirsty and hungry while dancing, and hugged each other and went to the back of the house to have ambiguous affairs.

"Reglo, go and tell the fat women over there that if you are willing to hand over a chicken, you can..."

Lawrence explained in detail the purpose of the nine men, and Reguero quickly smiled as he understood everything.

"Can I turn in two chickens?"

Lawrence looked at the dancing woman in the distance and said calmly: "Okay, but don't play to death. Pay attention to keeping it clean, just like when washing vegetables."

"Yes, Master." Reglo quickly went down to make arrangements.

Kehalan asked curiously: "Why are you so cruel to these people?"

Lawrence explained: "The Durila people did not invade me, nor did the forest people, nor did the people from the Water City."

Kehalan quickly understood that the people who invaded here before were all killed on the spot, and the remaining slaves had no grudges against Lawrence.

The fate of the Valkyries was even worse. The three captured Valkyries were directly castrated and were in great pain.

Lawrence was so unkind to his enemies.

Delen looked around and said, "We can't take a shower tonight. Are we here all the time?"

Lawrence said: "Go back tomorrow. There are still many things to do on the mountain. Those people will have to wait until at least half a month to come back. Then come back."

"I have already arranged things here. I have sent people to call Seravan and Beow back today. Those forest people speak Durila language and asked Brielle's father, Tukara and his family, to go over and take care of them for a while."

The number of forest people now exceeds four hundred, but their combat effectiveness is low. Whether it is farming or working, they are extremely useless, like a group of primitive people.

Sofia said: "When I chatted with Brielle and Navia last time, Navia said that she also wanted her family to come and help. Her family would definitely listen to her."

Lawrence smiled and said: "It doesn't matter. When the Western businessmen come this time, let them recruit some people to come and work for us when they go back. We will provide currency to them and accept Western currency to buy our things."

"It would be too wasteful for our people to do some mining, construction and farming."

Sophia said happily: "Use our wood in exchange for money, and use the money to exchange for outsiders to help us mine and cultivate the land. The master is so awesome, I have never thought about this before!"
