I'm an Aristocrat, but I've Started a Farming System
Chapter 45 Alternatives in the Aristocracy
The knights held beers in their hands and were clinking glasses and cheering.
Drinking wine and eating meat, they like this form and even enjoy it.
When His Highness was here before, the knights were still restraining themselves. When His Highness left, they were completely relaxed.
At this time, Grant and Lynn were walking on the street, and they could still vaguely hear the knight's shouts.
Grant said: You know, this is the first time I've seen them drinking so happily.
Lynn: I can only say that you haven't seen them drinking in private. It's completely different in the royal family and in the pub.
I feel very comfortable and at ease here. To be honest, I really want to live in this place. Grant's expression was serious and he was not joking.
It's just... He changed his words, I know this is impossible. As a member of the royal family, you are not free. Sometimes you have to be controlled and ordered by your father.
Linn agreed with this. Your origin determines your future, and it is difficult to change, especially for a member of the royal family like Grant, who may be forced to marry a woman he does not like.
With his character that yearns for freedom, living in the royal family is a kind of torture.
You can try to change it. Linn thought for a while and said.
Grant shook his head, I've also thought about changing. It's too difficult.
It's difficult to do anything, so why don't you do it just because it's difficult? Lin En sighed.
Grant stopped and looked at him.
Linn pointed to the street, Do you think there is anything different about this street?
Grant looked at the street. He had discovered that there was no dirt everywhere on the road. No wonder he didn't smell the disgusting smell here.
No dirt! Grant replied.
Yes, I am a person who loves cleanliness. When I lived in the castle, I had servants cleaning inside and outside. I rarely went out, so naturally I didn't have to face the dirt on the street all the time. But after I came here, You have to deal with dirt every day.
After all, the town is so big, and the castle is not far from the town. The smell blows to the castle along with the wind. Think about it, when you are eating, you suddenly smell the stench, who can eat it? Lynn said.
Grant felt a little nauseous just thinking about it.
So, I issued an order strictly prohibiting the townspeople from throwing dirt on the streets casually. If they violate it, they will be hanged directly. In this way, I forcibly changed their habits and built a lot of toilets for them to solve problems in. Problem, this way the streets will be cleaner.”
Linn paused and continued: Once they form a habit, it is not easy to change it, so the street hygiene is quite good.
Grant mused, You mean I have to be tougher?
You can be tough, but you must also use the correct method to express your thoughts. Don't let others think that you are just a random person. Only by showing it in a timely manner can others pay attention and take it seriously.
Lin En's words were rather reserved. He didn't understand what the royal family was like, but he understood one thing. Being tough will only lead to a worse death. You must know how to adapt.
To be honest, his experience can provide Grant with a lot of experience and principles, but these things are not necessarily really applicable and need to be based on the actual situation.
What can be said so much is that he regards Grant as a friend and does not want anything to happen to His Highness. Maybe there will be opportunities to use him in the future.
Things like connections are usually not of much use, but once you encounter trouble, you can use them.
What's more, the other party is a member of the royal family.
Grant frowned, thinking about the meaning of Linn's words.
After a long time, his brows widened, I understand. Thank you for telling me this. No one has ever told me the truth. They just call me Your Highness. They are afraid of me and are worried about even saying a word. I made a mistake.”
Normally, nice words are like candy. Everyone is willing to listen to them. The truth is often harder to hear. Once the listener gets angry, what will happen if the speaker is hanged? Lin En understands this truth very well.
Good medicine tastes bitter and honest advice offends the ears. This is all true.
Grant asked: Is it possible for me to become a lord?
Lin En glanced at him and said, As a member of the royal family, don't you want to inherit the throne?
I have no interest in dealing with the affairs of a kingdom. It's too tiring and complicated.
Then when you become a lord, is it any different from becoming a king? You also need to deal with various things.
The structure of the kingdom has been fixed. If I inherit the throne, all I can do is try to stabilize it as much as possible. But the lord is different. I can do whatever I want. Just like the filth on the streets you just mentioned, there are filth all over the streets in the kingdom. , if I issue a decree to force them not to spill it casually, then many ministers will unite to oppose it the next day, and even ordinary people and knights will express their dissatisfaction.
Not only will this not succeed, but it will make me laugh at people. They will only think that I am a king who has no political ability and only wants to do meaningless things. In my own territory, I can force them to do this. Once the people form a habit, the subsequent situation will steadily improve. The people will find that this is good. When I issue the decree again, their resistance will be reduced.
In this way, I will build an ideal territory and a city that develops according to my ideas.
I once thought about why there were so many serfs, but they were so slow in doing things, and they still needed to be supervised before they could work. What would happen if we gave them better treatment, such as giving them the status of free citizens?
Linn was stunned. He looked at Grant and didn't speak for a long time. He was really shocked.
What Grant said is exactly what he is currently thinking and doing. He knows very well that a mature town will not easily change according to his ideas. The resistance to changes will be very high, but ordinary towns are different. Once you have it, you can shape it however you want.
Unexpectedly, His Highness, who yearns for freedom and is unwilling to stay in the royal family, has advanced thinking.
If he really becomes a lord, maybe a city completely different from other cities will appear.
Lin En admitted that he still underestimated the local people. Among the many nobles, not all of them were addicted to the rules of the nobles.
According to the rules of the aristocracy, serfs are their private property, and they will never be given the status of free citizens easily, because for them, this is a loss of property.
