The Wizard’s Fairy Tale

　　 In the middle of the night, with candles lit in the earthen house, William stood alone in front of the magic mirror.

　　 The mirror surface of the magic mirror lights up, and a clear picture is displayed on it.

　　 A few villagers gathered together secretly, each with a mixed look of caution, fear, and hesitation.

Looking at them in the mirror image, William draws an arc at the corner of his mouth, but his eyes are indifferent. His fingers slowly clicked from the figure on the mirror. Suddenly, there was a sound of fine footsteps outside. The knock on the door sounded.

　　 "My Lord Baron, someone wants to see you!" Old John's voice sounded from outside the door.

"come in."

　　William's eyes condensed, and his palm touched the mirror surface, and the magic mirror immediately became ordinary.

　　 The door was gently pushed open, and Old John walked in with a man.

　　William turned around and saw the person brought by Old John, and a look of surprise flashed in his eyes.

　　 "The harvested monsoon brings a good mood, Lord Baron, good evening!" the man said to William.

　　 "Actually, my mood is not very good..." William said with a playful look, "The arrival of the harvest moon makes me smell agitated!"

　　 The man was silent for a while, and then calmly said, "Everything can't be hidden from the eyes of Lord Baron!"

"There are so many things I can't see with my eyes!" William sneered, and paused, then calmly said, "Actually, I didn't expect it to be you! I thought of many people, Mark, Merton. , Even if it’s a clever Adams! But I really didn’t think it would be you! After all, you are so smart, well-informed, and you are determined to execute... But, really, I I didn't expect it to be you!"

　　 The man was silent again.

　　 William didn't worry, he just looked at him quietly.

　　 After a while, the man thought about the words, "Please forgive my boldness!"

　　 "Sweet words are used to deceive people, otherwise they are used to deceive themselves, and the truth will be harsh." William said, "I will never punish an honest leader because of the truth!"

　　 "You gave me courage, Lord Baron!" the man said suddenly.

　　 William just smiled.

　　The man paused, looked at William, and pursed his lips, then said, "In fact, you have collapsed my cognition!"

"Oh?"

　　 "Yes, Lord Baron! I have never seen a lord like you!"

　　 "It's just that you see less!" In this territory, there are not many people who need to make William hesitate, so he is blunt.

　　 "You are right, Lord Baron! But you are indeed the most unusual nobleman I have ever seen!" The man nodded.

　　 "So?" William looked at him with piercing eyes, "What is your purpose for tonight?"

　　 "I'm very confused, Lord Baron, I have never been confused before! And the final answer is in your hands!" The man raised his head and looked at William deeply.

"What do you need me to do for you?" William felt a little bit interesting. "I mean, what I have always emphasized, when I first saw you, and what you did during this time, you All are showing me clearly and unmistakably that you are a smart person! I believe that there is no need to question this! In my imagination, you should have found a way out!"

　　 After a pause, William said again, "Old John told me about it early!"

　　 As William looked at the man indifferently, his identity as a knight-level creature and nobleman put him under great pressure.

　　 A wry smile appeared on the man's face, "Stupid fellow!"

　　 "Hehe!" William just smiled.

　　 "My Lord Baron, I don't understand a bit, why don't you punish them?" The man wondered.

"I said that they will come and go free after the harvest month! I will not keep them when I go, but I will confiscate their fields and property. I will bring them glory and sunshine if I leave them. If the village of Nisai will perish, so will After my body!" William said casually, "If this is the case, why should I punish them?"

　　 "You are really a unique nobleman!" The man opened his mouth to say something, but he couldn't say anything, and he sighed authentically after a while.

　　 William accepted the compliment with a smile!

　　 "My Lord Baron, I am willing to stay and see with my own eyes the fate of your Nisai village!" The man stopped hesitating, and said firmly to William.

　　 The old John next to his face moved slightly.

　　 William rolled his eyes and said, "Do you believe me that way?"

　　 "My Lord Baron, your life is much more precious than ours!" the man said meaningfully.

　　 "You are not afraid that I lied to you?" William looked at the man playfully.

　　 "Your actions will not deceive, Lord Baron!" the man answered, "Besides, Lord Baron, I don't see the need to deceive us!"

"Ha ha ha... Very good, from the current point of view, your words make me very happy. But I want more than just happiness, I want to ask you, what can you bring to me?" William smiled slightly, and then examined Stared at the man.

　　 "I can pass your will and persistence to other villagers and let them care about your true intentions!"

　　 "Oh, can you influence all the villagers?"

　　 "No, Lord Baron, but some villagers will consider what I say!"

"Oh……"

　　 "Also, not all villagers can have access to the city of Patras! It's too expensive! There are always some villagers who use everything but they can't enter!" the person said.

　　 "So these people will stay in Nisai Village?" William was interested.

"It's a dead end to stay in the small village of Nisei... I'm sorry, Lord Baron, I mean, there will be no villagers choosing to stay in the small village of Nisei before you come!" The man realized that he had said something wrong , Explained quickly.

　　 "Where did they go?" This was William's curiousity.

　　 In fact, when William knew that the entrance fee of Patras in winter was one person and one leather coin, he had this question in his heart.

　　 This era is not communism!

　　The land of each villager is different.

　　 some are more, some are less.

　　 Many people like the Adams family have 12 Crockett land, which is about 360 acres when converted into acres.

　　Like the Mark family, there are many people and little land, only 0.8 Crockett, which is about 29 acres of land.

　　 Goodbye.

　　 William asked the villagers and calculated that one acre of land, if you look at the sky, you can harvest about 120 kilograms of rye.

　　0.8 Crockett can only harvest about 3,500 kg of rye.

　　 But one third of the land is used for fallow.

　　 This means that only 2400 kg of rye can be harvested at most.

　　 1 kilogram of rye can sell three Poor coins.

　　 2,400 kilograms of rye can yield 72 silver francs, which is equivalent to 7.2 Pis gold coins.

　　 There are only 7 people in his family, and it will cost 7 leather coins to enter the city.

　　 But the problem is that 7.2 Piskin coins are their harvest in one year, and their seed food next year will come from them.

　　 I paid the entrance fee, what do they have left?

　　 Last winter, the city fee had already drained their home, and they had to sell part of the land to the Adams family to have the surplus money to live up to now.

　　 But the land has been reduced, and the harvest has also been reduced. In order to enter the city, it is estimated that the land has to be sold to others. This is again in a vicious circle.

　　 Until one day, there is no place to sell!

　　 then was rejected mercilessly by the city of Patras.

　　 But Mark is not the worst in the village!

　　 There are villagers’ land, which is less than Mark, and the population is more than Mark!

　　So how do these people spend the winter? This is what William is curious about!

　　 "Go into the Cordillera Mountains and become a wild race!" The man spit out a new term!

　　 "Wild race? This is a novelty."

　　 "Yes, Lord Baron, all the villagers who can't enter Patras and lose their land will enter the Cordillera Mountains and struggle to survive!" The man said solemnly.

　　Patra City was originally established to defend against the lizardmen in the dark forest, so it was established at the pass on the only way to the south, next to the Cordillera Mountain.

　　Patra City does not allow villagers to enter the city, and the villagers have no choice to go to other places~www.ltnovel.com~ So did they survive? "William asked.

The man shook his head, "Very few people can live until the arrival of spring! The land that can be cultivated in the Cordillera Mountain is originally very small, and it is occupied by some powerful wild people, and there are endless dangerous animals in the mountain. and so……"

　　 The man did not go on, and William nodded in understanding.

　　After thinking about it, William asked again, "How many wild people are in the mountain?"

　　 "I don't know!" The man shook his head first, then thought about it, and then replied, "I have heard people from Patras say that there can be thousands of wild people in Cordillera Mountain!"

　　 "Then this number is really a lot!" William said thoughtfully.

　　 "Aren't they coming to grab your harvest?" William asked directly, Cordillera Mountain is not far from here.

　　 "They thought! But they didn't dare, and they didn't have the opportunity!" There was a sarcasm and self-deprecating smile on the man's face.

"Viscount Grien is more active than anyone! Tomorrow Viscount Grien will send someone over to take away most of the harvest from Nisai Village in the name of the entrance fee! Without enough food, how dare they risk angering them? The risk of Viscount Grien, come and grab it?" The man said the reason.

　　 "Okay!" William always knew about the situation in his territory.

　　The wild tribe, the lizard people, and the Viscount Grien, it’s so wonderful! William said to himself.

　　He paused and said to the humanity in front of him, "You have gained my trust. If you can satisfy me tomorrow, then you will be honored!"

　　 "This is a baron's promise!" William said sternly.

　　 "Please wait and see!" The man tightened and said.
