The Extraordinary Earl

Chapter 48 Lily, Pompeii (second update)

The two exchanged pleasantries, and Luther expressed his thoughts. Old Bob was stunned after hearing this, and then he said boldly: "Isn't it just to recruit apprentices? Okay. But there are two things, please don't mind Master Luther."

When Old Bob answered this, Luther was slightly stunned.

Because he guessed that with Old Bob’s character, teaching apprentices would not be a priority. But I didn’t expect that Old Bob would agree so readily.

Luther was certainly pleased that things were going well. He couldn't help but nodded and said: "Uncle Bob, if you have anything to say, just tell me."

"One is that being a blacksmith is a very hard job, and the apprentices are very strict. Just like old Bob, I would also curse a few words when my sons were learning. Don't mind this. The other person is , Old Bob plans to open up fields next year and become a great farmer, so he may not have time to teach apprentices. But Master Luther, don’t worry, Old Bob’s skills have been handed over to his sons, and they are qualified to teach apprentices.”

Old Bob said.

In fact, old Bob should have hidden it a little bit. When he taught his son, he not only scolded him a few times, but also sometimes slapped him.

Although Luther said just now, those apprentices were young serfs.

But Old Bob still thought it would be better to explain the situation first. Blacksmithing is very hard, and learning to blacksmith is even harder.

After hearing this, Luther felt relieved and said with a smile: "It's nothing. If those teenagers are disobedient, they will beat and scold them casually. Just pay attention to your behavior. Skin injuries are fine, but don't cause internal injuries. As for Bao Uncle Bo, if you want to be a farmer, I won’t stop you.”

Old Bob felt relieved and patted his chest.

"That's okay, don't worry, Master Luther. I will account for my sons when I get back."

"Okay. Then Uncle Bob, continue to look at the forest and think about the matter of reclaiming the fields. I'm going back first." Luther also nodded, turned on his horse and walked.

"Okay." Uncle Bob nodded.

Immediately, Luther rode back to the castle with his accompanying guards.

Very happy.

Because in the recent period, the development of Pompeii City has been almost like this.

Recruit guard knights.

Recruit the population.

Abolish serfdom and train some young serfs as carpenters, blacksmiths and other professionals.

A part of the field was enclosed as the center of Pompeii, which was a small city. Of course there is still some finishing work, but most things are almost completed.

Next, the people waiting to be recruited arrived one after another.

Thinking of this, Luther was naturally very happy.

Although the developed city will not be too big, it will be a small town at most, with a small territory of about 12,000 people.

But you have to eat your food in bite-sized chunks, just take your time.

When Luther came back, it was already past lunch time. But it doesn't matter. As the heir of a knight lord family, of course it is impossible to go hungry.

Luther asked Old Fearon to tell the kitchen to prepare a big steak, some bread, vegetables, turn on a small stove, and finish the meal.

After eating, Luther planned to go down for knight training. Before that, Luther had to change into training clothes. It was simple, just call the maid and little Maya to come over.

"What color training clothes do you want?" Little Maya quickly came over with round-toe shoes, clicking, and then asked.

Luther said: "Black."

In fact, it's casual. When I sweat a lot, I take off my training clothes and practice shirtless.

"Okay." Little Maya nodded seriously, turned and left. Soon, another burst of footsteps sounded.

Luther had a look of helplessness on his face. With his knight-level hearing, two troubles came. Not long after, two little lolita appeared in front of Luther.

Both lolita looked about six or seven years old, and both had blond hair. Their appearances were slightly different, but they were both equally delicate, and both had a pair of big, watery eyes.

Even the clothes on their bodies are of the same style, white dresses, as if they are two princesses coming out of the castle.

Haha, speaking of which, this is indeed a castle, Pompeii Castle.

These two lolita are still sisters. But the blood relationship is quite distant.

Slightly taller is Luther's biological sister, Mary Pompeii.

Slightly shorter were Ston, Pompeii's daughter, and Lily, Pompeii.

But don't say it, Lily, Pompeii is a little loli who is very vindictive and very concerned about her height.

Because they were of the same race and about the same age, the two little girls played together. Mrs. Sophie liked Lily very much, so she specially prepared identical clothes for the two loli.

By the way, because Knight Stone went out to do business, Lily was temporarily taken care of by Mrs. Sophie, and she is currently living in the castle.

"Hi Luther."

Lily said hello to Luther first, then blinked her big eyes and looked at Luther up and down.

This made Luther a little nervous. This little guy was not easy to mess with.

Very fond of pranks.

"Luther." Mary wanted to be more direct and called.

This younger sister is actually not cute either. She talks non-stop all day long. She treats her elder brother like a friend who is an equal, with no respect at all.

On the contrary, Luther liked William very much among the three brothers and sisters. He is a taciturn, very honest and reliable brother.

"Hey Lily, and Mary, what are you two doing here?" Luther said hello with a bit of a smile, and then asked.

"I'm fine. It's Lily. She wanted to do knight training, but Uncle Stone refused. So I wanted to ask you, can you teach her how to do knight training?"

Mary came to Luther's bed very familiarly and sat down, took off her little leather shoes, and made a rolling ball on the bed.

"Luther, can you teach me?" Lily asked cutely, blinking her big eyes, but there was a dangerous light in her eyes, as if to say, you refuse to try.

There were threads on Luther's forehead. This little guy was vindictive and stingy. He was not a fuel-efficient lamp. If he didn't agree today, he might play a prank tomorrow.

It made him jump all over the place.

A smile appeared on Luther's face, as if he was a fox that had become a spirit. Then he nodded and simply agreed: "Okay."

"Really?" Lily looked surprised.

"But you have to wait until you are eight years old, because it is not good to train as a knight at a young age, and your future achievements will be limited. After countless generations of research, it is most perfect to start training as a knight at the age of eight."

Luther quickly changed the subject and said.

Luther didn't lie to Lily, it only made sense to start knight training at the age of eight. Luther didn't agree with Lily's desire to become a knight, but he didn't object either.

There are female knights in this world, and many of them are very powerful beings.

But Knight Stone doesn't intend to teach Lily, there must be his reasons. And Luther didn’t have time to spare for this little loli, so he might as well forget it.

Lily is six and a half years old this year, and it will be a year and a half before she turns eight.

Who still remembers today’s promise?

Children are easy to deceive.

"Okay, then Luther, you must teach me when I am eight years old." When she heard that she would have to wait until eight years old, Lily was disappointed for a moment, but then she cheered up and said seriously.

"Of course." Luther promised confidently.
