Not only was there a lack of supplies, but the number of servants was also too small. According to Karis, Master Linn must have at least dozens of servants around him, responsible for the kitchen, washing, cleaning, feeding cattle, sheep and horses, etc.

There are too few male servants now, and they are simply too busy to work. Basically, they spend all day doing this.

In addition, the abilities of the three maids were so poor. Ellie only mastered the most basic cooking skills. They were okay for making bread, but the stews involving meat were a mess and completely inedible.

Jimmy and Xisha only know how to clean and wash clothes, but have no other skills.

Karis took advantage of this opportunity to explain the current situation in detail.

Lin En naturally understood and asked, Do you have any ideas to change it?

Karis's expression was stagnant, and he couldn't tell the specific method.

He was not helpless. As a steward, he naturally learned how to help the lord better manage the territory, but that was all for a territory with complete basic functions. He could make things better, but he could not create something from scratch.

Lin En was not surprised at all by his appearance. He understood these things very well and was thinking of solutions now.

We can let the serfs feed the cattle, sheep and horses. Linn said.

Karis said subconsciously: Master, serfs are lowly and they have no right to come to the castle.

Linn looked at him and said solemnly: Karis, this is Ash Town, remote and backward, not my father's castle. Serfs are not allowed to enter or exit the castle. But in Ash Town, there is no need to care too much about their identities. , instead of serfs, should I hire those free people?

Besides, those maids and male servants are also serfs. They can work here, but other serfs can't?

Karis opened his mouth, but didn't say anything. Hiring requires money, and their biggest problem is that they don't have money.

Master, you are right. Karis bowed his head and admitted his mistake.

You go to Old Tom and ask him to recommend a few serfs to come here. By the way, you say that the castle lacks a chore man, and ask his son Little Tom to do the work and take care of one meal every day.

Karis was surprised and wanted to ask, but Lin waved his hand and told him to do it quickly.

Looking at Karis leaving, Linn gently rubbed his forehead. He was now sure that Karis, the butler, was better because of his age.

Stubborn, conservative, unable to position himself correctly, he has a natural sense of superiority, thinking that since he comes from the Earl's Castle, he looks down on the people of Ashes Town.

Thinking about things too simply and without a long-term perspective.

Lin En was still thinking about why he needed a housekeeper before, but now it seems that the stepmother is deliberately holding him back.

Fortunately, Caris has one thing that is better, and that is loyalty.

Master, do you want something to drink, beer or wine?

At the door, Qiansha asked shyly, holding her skirt with both hands, as if she mustered up the courage to say this.

“Wine bar!”

Qiansha quickly went to get the wine, put it on the table, and stood aside, her face slightly red.

Linn poured himself a glass of wine. The wine brewed here has a very low alcohol content due to insufficient fermentation. It can be drunk as grape juice. He prefers juice to beer.

Seeing the young master downing two glasses of wine in a row, Qiansha lowered his head, not knowing what he thought of, and his face became even more rosy.

Lin En noticed her expression and said with concern: You are not feeling well, then go and take a rest first.

No. Qiansha hesitated.

There is nothing going on here anymore. Go and rest. Your body is the most important thing.

Under the young master's order, Qiansha left the house. When the cool breeze blew, she recalled her thoughts just now and couldn't help but stamp her feet shyly.

In the house, Lin En poured himself another glass of wine. He couldn't see the meaning of chewing the yarn. He just wanted to have something happen with him.

Among aristocrats, there are many affairs between young masters and maids, masters and maids, etc. Otherwise, they would not all say that the aristocratic life is corrupt.

As for food and sex, Lin En was not a gentleman, but he knew that now was not the time.

There are so many things that need to be resolved in the territory. What if Qiansha becomes pregnant? It will affect his mind again. He is not ready to have children until the territory is well developed.

Speaking of which, many nobles may have this idea, but they can't control it. If the protective umbrella is researched, it may be welcomed by many people.

Lin En smiled and gave up the idea. Although this thing is very small, it has a lot of technology inside. Otherwise, why would people here use casings?

After Old Tom learned about the lord's arrangement from the butler, he was very excited. Little Tom followed him without enough food and clothing, and his body was thin. Now being able to work in the castle is simply a blessing from God.

No, it is a reward from the lord.

The key is that little Tom can still have a meal there, which makes old Tom feel even more grateful to the lord.

Regarding what the adults said about raising cattle, sheep and horses, he promised that he would find a few skilled serfs to bring sufficient fodder to the castle every day.

The spring rain was pouring down, falling in the fields. In a short period of time, green appeared on the ground.

Under the irrigation of rainwater, the seeds took root and sprouted, growing vigorously.

This news also reached the castle, and Karis sighed: Praise the God of the Earth!

Praise the lord!

From one side, a childish voice sounded.

Little Tom's bright eyes were filled with admiration for the Lord.

Karis followed closely and praised the lord, and the servants followed closely behind.

Lin En looked outside the door. The spring rain had been falling for two days and four days had passed since the sowing. It was not surprising that the seeds had sprouted.

There was one thing that was not good. Because of the rain, the townspeople who were repairing the castle went home. Karis also scolded them, but it was of no use at all.

These townspeople are free citizens, and Linn did not spend money to hire them, so there is no way to force them to continue working.

Suddenly, a panel appeared in front of Linn's eyes, and a new task appeared on it.

Task 2: Cleanliness is one of the important factors that improves the happiness of a territory. However, the feces all over the streets have turned Ashes Town into a town built on feces under the influence of rain. Cleanliness must be managed without delay. Complete the task to obtain spice clues. .

Task 3: Town citizen Far has encountered some troublesome things recently. The wooden furniture in his home has become broken into pieces for no reason. Help find the problem. Complete the task to get a repeating crossbow.
