The Extraordinary Earl

Chapter 18 The shocked Pompeii collar (2)

It's not just Madame Sophie.

This is a small knight's collar, there are not so many bells and whistles, only agriculture is the foundation. Everyone present knows this.

As a blacksmith, Bob still dreams of becoming a great farmer.

Little Maya is Bob's daughter and has watched farmers farm since she was a child.

all in all.

Mrs. Sophie opened her red lips slightly, revealing her snow-white teeth, and her beautiful eyes seemed to have changed into the shape of $$.

It's all money.

Old Sol opened his mouth, as if he had seen the most incredible thing.

Teacher Qiao Xiu, Magellan, Xiu Xiuya, and Lelouch all looked like this, as if they were printed from the same mold.

"Luther, is this the "plow" you are talking about? There are actually cows that can plow the fields. Although your manure fertilization plan is unreliable, this can be done. Let's spend money to buy cows immediately, just buy Bass "Buy fifty cows, not a hundred cows."

Old Sol looked excited.

Although he usually has a deep and majestic look on his face, at this time he was as excited as a country boy who had just seen patches of gold.

It's so exciting.

Limited to the title, Pompeii's territory has never been large. Not only Old Sol, but also the lords of Pompeii have always been eager to develop their territories and expand their families.

But with little success.

Old Saul originally had high hopes for Luther, but after hearing Luther's unbelievable idea of ​​fertilizing the fields with manure and using oxen to plow the fields, he immediately turned into disappointment.

He wholeheartedly planned to let Luther go to the royal capital and join the Knights.

But when he actually saw the scene of cattle plowing the fields, this idea was immediately forgotten. Luther, my son. He was born to be a lord, and he would be the mainstay of Pompeii in the future.

Hey, this is my old Sol's son.

As for how he rejected Luther that day, Old Saul had completely forgotten.

Luther curled his lips when he heard this. The time for spring plowing is very short. If the caravan sets out to buy cattle now, it will be too late when it comes back. It will have to wait until next year to use it.

Fortunately, he got the support of Mrs. Sophie, otherwise the plan would have been postponed for a year.

Old Sol is such a slow guy.

But on the other hand, Luther was quite happy, and it was great to show off this time. Old Sol, you, a rich country man, finally know how powerful I am.

"It seems that I have to spend some time on Tiematun. I won't be able to catch up this year. But I can cut down the forest and build farmland in my free time. If I can expand Tiematun by one or two times, then our family may be able to have more A knight in the service of Pompeii."

Magellan was shocked and had some plans in mind.

Since Pompeii's collar was too small, the Pompeii family could provide for their children to become knights. For example, in Luther's generation, Luther, William, and even Mary would receive knight education.

But the Magellan family can only be passed down from generation to generation.

Who doesn’t want to grow the family?

Magellan felt that there was an opportunity right now, so he looked at "Plough" with eyes that were like gold.

"I really underestimated him. Cows can actually be used to plow fields, so it doesn't seem impossible to fertilize the fields with manure. With this two-pronged approach, Pompeii Territory will develop and grow in a few years. If there is an opportunity, Attract more free people. Then the Pompeii Territory may really become a city, and with the strength of a city, it does not seem impossible to obtain a title. After all, although the Pompeii family is only a hereditary lord, it is from The blood of the ancient earl is pure aristocracy.”

Lelouch's eyes flashed with surprise.

After experiencing setbacks in his career, he returned to the countryside of Pompeii where he was born and raised in frustration. He accepted Luther's invitation and became the mayor of Pompeii.

I originally thought that I was just waiting to die, but I could help the development of Pompeii Territory by the way. With a lot of hard work, I might be able to double the development of Pompeii Territory.

Unexpectedly, what was in front of him was Zhuang Kangdao.

Lelouch looked at Luther with fiery eyes, as if he saw a future.

All in all, everyone present was full of shock, hope, and longing.

Faced with Old Sol's shock, and as if he had forgotten that he had rejected Luther, he now shamelessly said that he wanted to buy a hundred Bass cows.

Mrs. Sophie rolled her eyes at Old Sol and said angrily: "If I had listened to you, sir, there would be no cows left. I sent someone to buy them a few days ago. There are sixty Bass cows. They will be there soon." came back."

Of course Old Saul didn't forget that he rejected Luther, he just pretended to forget. Now after listening to his wife's words, Old Sol suddenly felt a little embarrassed.

But it was impossible for him to admit his mistake.

Old Sol is very manly.

Seeing Old Sol's deflated appearance, Luther smiled. He turned to look at Lelouch and said: "Sixty Bass cows will arrive soon. Please ask Senior Lelouch to divide the cows. Tell them that you can give these cows to them. But next year we must give them to them." Cut down the forest and cultivate new fields. I hope that the fields in Pompeii will be doubled next year.”

"Little Luther, don't worry. What the free people care about most is the land. In the past, they wanted to cultivate the land, but they didn't have the energy to take care of the farmland. Now that they have cattle, you don't need to tell them, they will be eager to cultivate the fields. Pompeii The family will definitely grow and develop.”

Lelouch said affirmatively with a slight smile.

"That's good." Luther nodded heavily.

Show off, show off.

wrong.

It was Luther's job to make important people in the territory realize the importance of the plow. But this kind of thing is important in a moment, and there is no need to mention it repeatedly.

So in the following time, Luther did not make much fuss about this matter. The Pompeii collar is developing very steadily.

With the efforts of free people in various villages and serfs, the roads in Pompeii were quickly repaired. Even in remote places, the roads were smooth and wide.

Not even a piece of human shit can be seen on the road.

Under the supervision of their respective village chiefs, the freedmen meticulously poured their own excrement into their own farmland.

Even if it’s a little reluctant.

All in all, it's still the same sentence. They did not dare to resist Master Luther. It was just a symbolic resistance in my heart.

No one believes that manure can actually increase crop yields.

At this moment, as spring deepened, a warm southerly wind blew into Pompeii. Pompeii, which is located in the south and has always been warm, has ushered in the time of spring plowing.

At this time, sixty Bass cattle also came from the northern road.

You must know that the entire Pompeii Territory is very small. Although the Pompeii Territory also raised some knights, the number has never been large. Just Luther, Magellan, Old Sol, even if you add William and Shushua, these two quasi-knights.

Not much meat is consumed, and Pompeii Ranch alone can be self-sufficient.

Purchasing sixty Bass cattle at one time was definitely a big deal for Pompeii.

Unparalleled.

And what exactly will this bring?

Only Luther was grinning.

Smiling so happily.
