Plane Merchant

Chapter 184 Banquet
But here, refugees come here almost every day, but they are taken in infinitely. It seems that there is endless food here, and everyone is looking for something they can do instead of just sitting around and waiting to die. It's not that there is no such thing, but that those who wanted to do this were all driven out, and the refugees drove them out automatically, because they were wasting food here, and every piece of food wasted was their life-saving food.

As the days got better day by day, the people here began to have smiles on their faces, because they felt that they had hope, especially after the person named Zig released the news that he would reclaim and sow seeds after the beginning of spring, so that these people Start cheering, because this means that they can finally cultivate the land and become serfs of the lord.

In addition, the existence of the temple in the territory made Locke feel very miraculous. The leader of the child was also a very mysterious person. Something terrible is about to happen.

Of course, these are not things that ordinary people can feel, even some low-strength warriors can't feel them. After having this feeling, Locke rarely goes to the temple, because there makes him feel like he has nothing to hide, but this He is still very interested in the temple.

Because there were no gods on the mainland a long time ago. It is said that all the gods were destroyed by a powerful supreme being, so there will be no gods, and the rise of the human race is now. Otherwise, the rampant situation of the gods back then Generally speaking, the human race is only a race to be killed when it is strong, and even a few strong people cannot change this fact.

Today I planned to have a good meal, and then I went to play with my little sister, but when I came out, I saw the final scene. Those tables were full of food. Although it didn’t look very delicate, the quantity was definitely quite a lot. It seems that this luxurious lord is sitting down.

Locke pulled a person and asked, "What's the matter today? The shops are closed, and the food street is the same. There are so many foods on the street. Are you going to treat guests here?"

The person being dragged looked at Locke very dissatisfied, and found that this person's skin was not rough at all, and he was wearing the most expensive cloth called Shu embroidery sold here. Seeing such a person, he didn't dare to express any dissatisfaction, but said humbly: "The lord is kind, let us take a seven-day vacation. During these seven days, we don't have to work and we can eat, and the salaries of those guarding soldiers will be doubled. It's also a seven-day vacation."

"That's it! Do you know why? For no reason, seven days! Do you want me to cook for myself?" Locke was about to go crazy. The only bad thing about eating food street food was that he would eat something else. It's hard to swallow, especially those things that he ate before, either boiled or steamed, the stereotypes make him want to vomit now when he sees those things.

"I heard that the lord said it was a festival, so he had to take a seven-day holiday. He said it was called New Year's Eve! I don't know why, but everyone is happy. You can't eat these good things on weekdays." He was referring to those whole-grain breads with butter and honey. The bread was so easy to buy, but the butter and honey were not available to ordinary people.

Locke let go of the person he was holding, thinking about the magnanimity of the lord, which is beyond the imagination of the duke's son, how rich he is, so he will take out the precious butter and honey for everyone For people to eat, the most important thing is not that other households take it out, but that he can take it out, and being able to take it out means that he has more.

At this moment, Locke's heart twitched violently twice. How many gold coins will be eaten in these seven days? At this time, Locke felt that he must have a new understanding of this lord.

Locke obviously didn't know there was a thing called artificial royal jelly, as for butter!For Li Youran, it was bought by tons.

After dark, the whole castle was illuminated brilliantly by the lights, all the movies and TVs were brought out, and the songs and dances played inside made people mesmerized. will be more happy.

Ordinary people obviously don't know the preciousness of these things, but who is Locke, the third son of the Duke of Griffin, his knowledge is beyond the reach of ordinary people, even he has never seen such alchemy items, so it is naturally extremely precious, but in This place is actually for ordinary people to watch. Could it be that the nobles outside are not as good as ordinary people when they come here?
Locke sat in a seat, watched the performance on the big screen on the stage, held the bread in his hand, and felt that it was tasteless for the first time. His heart had already drifted to the castle. The outside was so prosperous and luxurious, and the inside was full of joy. What kind of extravagance would it be?

Of course the castle was ready. When Li Youran arrived, he and his parents sat on the main seat. Elena was called by Li Youran's mother and sat at her feet.

This is a very favored seat. The men and women at the banquet looked at her enviously, wishing to replace it. In the etiquette of other worlds, sitting at the foot of the main seat has only one meaning, that is, family members, expressing Although they are not blood relatives, they are accepted by the family.

Zieg was very entangled in the arrangement of this position, but Field's power was too great. In order to check and balance him, he had to do this. Who is Elena?It's just a cook, with only a halfling behind her. Although it can be regarded as a force, it is pitifully weak.

But don't forget, Knight Ellington also knew Elena, and once wanted to adopt her as his goddaughter. Although he couldn't make it, he still loved this child very much and was willing to be her backing. After all, he was alone. In a place like the baron's mansion, it is a disadvantage for a girl to have no backing, but it will be different with him.

Ziggy is a very careful person. Since he has recognized Li Youran as his master, he will assist him wholeheartedly. Field's power is too strong, and half-elves are not reliable in his opinion. Although Oak's power is strong enough, he is also loyal enough. , but after all, he doesn't have high-end combat power, so he can only develop cautiously, and he can't be seen yet.

Of course, Chigurh didn't know that his plan was superfluous, even though Li Youran agreed to his approach in the end, whether it was Field or Morton, it could be said that they were both Li Youran's confidantes, but Chigurh was the core of power. a person outside.

That's why when he found Li Youran and told everything, Li Youran suddenly felt a little sorry for this person. He was the first person who was willing to offer his allegiance. He was the one who was willing to defend the castle even though he had no strength. He forgot that there was nothing to do with him in the subsequent appointment, and he didn't know if he felt resentment.

Thinking of this, Li Youran asked directly: "Qige, you are a descendant of a nobleman. I didn't trust you at first, but I didn't expect you to do so much for me. Do you have any resentment towards the last appointment?" Pass?"

Zieg was stunned. He didn't expect the problem to appear here. It turned out that everything was caused by his surname. Think about it, even a reckless man like Carl got a position like a sheriff, and Oak is even more powerful. It was impossible to say that he didn't resent him. Even after Field was reused, he hated it, but he put all his hatred away. He blamed himself for not doing well enough, but never thought that his surname would become his burden, even though he was once proud of it.

After thinking about it, Chigurh thought it would be better to tell the truth, adjusted his clothes, gave a respectful salute, and then said: "Master, in fact, Chigurh once resented him, I think the master has no eyes, and can't see what I have done." But I didn’t know the original reason was here.”

Li Youran was very satisfied with Zieg's confession, nodded and said: "Very well, if you say that you have never held grudges, I will be vigilant and even get rid of you. Keep it in mind, whether it is the construction of the castle, the management of the refugees, or the translation and collection of documents, I know everything. In fact, it is also a temptation for me to hand over the serfs to you. You also know how many serfs there are. If you are ambitious enough, after controlling the serfs, you are fully capable of controlling the territory and even overthrowing me, I am glad you don't have so many!"

Zig broke out in a cold sweat when he heard it. It turned out that there was such a trap inside. Fortunately, he didn't have such thoughts. Otherwise, he couldn't imagine what his situation would be like.

"Actually, you don't have to worry about Field and Morton at all. They are all loyal to me. Morton is my life-and-death friend, and Field even gave me half of his soul. Even if the half-elfs want to make trouble, it is impossible. Field could kill them all overnight by himself."

"It's not my race, so its heart must be different," Zieg suddenly rushed out.

"Hey, it seems that you have read a lot of books." Li Youran said in amazement, he knew that such idioms must not be circulated in the mainland. Although the words are the same, the characters are completely different, and there is no such thing as idioms Speaking of which, Li Youran couldn't help but wonder if there were any time travelers here!And once ruled the mainland?Then I gave up the text modification because I was too lazy to change the text?Otherwise, how could it be speaking Chinese, but the characters are completely different. Of course, all this is just speculation.

"That's what you say, but... forget it, just do as you want. Although Morton and Field don't need to doubt, it's hard to guarantee that the people under him won't. Why do you have the teacher doubting them? Don't tell me anything wrong My race is gone, I know that's your excuse."

Zig was silent for a while, and then explained the reason to Li Youran, and then the two appeared at the banquet. Li Youran, who was sitting on the chair, nodded to Qig, who was seated on the lower right hand, to indicate that it was time to start.
