Transcendent Noble
Chapter 369
The bell of the chapel rang, and Severin got up from the wooden bed. He put on his underwear with sleepy eyes, and sat on the edge of the bed for a while, before he put on his coat and yawned and walked outside the house.
At dawn, he must rush to the village hall. There, Frank, the manager of Village Mayor George, was responsible for assigning today's work. If he is late, the good work will be taken away by others. Severin has just turned fifteen years old and hasn't learned much craftsmanship yet, and there are not many capable jobs. In that case, I can only help my family today, and I won't earn a single copper sol.
After washing his face with cold water, his mind suddenly became clearer. Severin wiped off the water droplets on his face indiscriminately, walked across the yard and toward the kitchen.
The yard was full of seasonal fruits and vegetables. Saverin came under the wooden frame, looked up and chose a heavy round melon, after thinking about it, he picked a bigger round melon. .
"Savelin? Is that you?"
"Aunt Marcy, it's me." Savelin put two round melons into the basket while facing the kitchen Shouted.
A tall and strong woman wearing a turban stood at the door of the kitchen and greeted: "Breakfast is ready, come and eat quickly. After a while, Robert will come back and see you go to work. I scold you."
"Aunt Marcy, you are the best." Saverin stroked her messy hair and walked into the kitchen smiling hehe.
The kitchen is located at the north corner of the yard, built with blue bricks, with two wooden tables in the middle, enough to seat 16 people. The tall and strong woman skillfully took a handful of charcoal with iron tongs, threw it into the stove, pulled it twice, making the flames burn more vigorously, and nagging distressedly: "It’s hot to eat hot meals. It’s a waste. This charcoal is all bought with money... Brown bread and lettuce are just as full."
"Only decent people are qualified to cook with charcoal. We don’t hold parties. It’s funny." Savelin said nonchalantly: "Charcoal is not expensive, and a copper sol is enough for three days."
"Then the smelly problem? We used to even have breakfast. I don't know anything... Oh, the Lord of Radiance who praises Supreme gave us breakfast, a house, uh, and charcoal." Aunt Marcy put the small bowl full of food on the wooden table, clasped her hands and prayed devoutly.
"Praise the great Supreme Lord, give me food...I pray for your pity, let me succeed in making paper today." Saverin prayed quietly.
"I wish you success too, little fellow." Marcy took a spoonful of hot oatmeal and poured it into the bowl in front of Saverin.
"I stopped picking lizard eggs last month! Aunt Marcy, I'm an adult." Saverin yelled, gnawing hard on the black bread.
Breakfast is green wheat porridge cooked with kidney beans, goat milk with black bread, plus two slices of oily marinated pork. The brown bread in George Village is made of rye and sweet potato flour, and also mixed with raw sugar, which tastes sweet and delicious. Severin eats with keen interest pleasure, and the cheerful barking of the dog is heard from the door.
"Boy, you should do things for your family when you are an adult." A middle-aged man pushed open the wooden door and walked in under the dew.
The man returned from the night, Marcy picked up the towel and wiped his face graciously, "Robert, you're back early."
"It's late to come back, This kid is going to go to work again." Robert each minding their own business scooped out a bowl of soy porridge, staring at his younger son and said: "You Katie Aunt has a big belly, and younger brothers and sisters are still young, at home. 80 acres of land, 3 cents of vegetable field, six pigs, dozens of geese, your mother and I can't be busy. Your big brother and second brother both have serious things to do. We still lack your wages today? Not allowed to go to work, help the family obediently and honestly!"
Severin swallowed the brown bread in his mouth and quickly said: "Unless you give me two copper sols!"
"Dream your big head!" Robert yelled: "Is paper so easy to make? Renting the Sid's papermaking workshop for half a day will give them 8 copper sols. You have already spent 4 silver at home. Sol, I didn’t make a fart! Want to put money in it again? I have this money, I might as well hire two helpers!"
"Unless you give me two copper Sols!" Severin Persevere stubbornly.
Robert was furious, and when he rolled up his sleeves, he was going to teach this improper boy, but a big hand on his shoulder made him impossible to move even a little bit.
Marcy pressed her husband like a chicken, "Sebins became a mercenary and Karl became a cook. We should also give Severin a chance. What if it becomes? Roger that The old rascal improved the spinning machine, and the generous and kind master Randal rewarded him with 300 gold sol and 30 acres of land. That is Fiefdom! Fiefdom is not a leased land, understand? Roger is now a vassal, and you now have to pay him Salute, call him master."
Robert struggled to no avail, and said viciously: "bitch, I am The head of the family, I have the final say!"
"I am In the palm of the hand." The tall and strong woman shook the wooden spoon under Robert's nose.
"Well, you are in charge." Robert saw his wife's sturdy arms, and he immediately stunned, muttering: "I said it can't be done....If it can be done, hope Will the De family rent out the papermaking workshop?"
"Let the little fellow try it, and that's it!" Marcy's words are as heavy as her weight.
"Aunt Marcy, no! Mom, I really love you so much." Severin exclaimed happily.
Labor said in a serene manner: "Marcy, I'm just afraid you have worked too hard."
Marcy let go, slightly smiled: "Is it harder than when I was a refugee "
Robert and Marcy are half-way refugee couples. Randal led the implementation of the policy of building houses and entering households, and Robert couldn't make up 30 goldsall when he spent his family property. Just when he was unable to do anything, Marcy, the former leader of the refugees, found Robert. Marcy proposes that as long as Robert and her become a legal husband and wife in the church, she is willing to make up 30 goldsault to help Robert build a house.
So the Robert family became the subjects of Randal, eldest son Sabins became a hired soldier of Randal, Marcy became the mistress of Robert's family, and Robert’s original woman, Kai Di stays at home as a close-knit maid.
Labor’s life has changed from Heaven and Earth turning upside down. Not only did he have a blue brick house with a yard, he was also allocated 80 acres of rented land. The harvested crops are taxed by the church. Robert takes 30% of the remaining crops and all the hay.
In the first year, Robert's family harvested more than 4,300 pounds of wheat, more than 8,000 pounds of hay, and 5,300 pounds of sweet potatoes. Randal's hay is very cheap, only one copper sol for 100 pounds, or 15 pounds of charcoal. Marcy sold the hay and sold half of the new wheat, and the other half was deposited in the bakery of Village Chief George to exchange for the old grain.
Most territories have implemented a policy of replacing old grain with new grain, and Randal is no exception. One pound of new wheat in George Village can be exchanged for 2 pounds of three-year old wheat or 1.5 pounds of green wheat, which is cashed in by the village chief’s bakery, but cannot exceed 20 pounds a day. Robert's house is enough to eat for more than half a year with the wheat he exchanged back, but the right to build a house and enter a household is more than that.
Robert has raised six pigs, and he will be slaughtered in two months. He can keep the two smallest pigs, but even so, they weigh more than 700 pounds together. Apart from this, Robert still has a three-point vegetable plot, and he can't finish the vegetables he grows. Excess vegetables, Marcy used to feed red-headed geese.
Although the red-headed goose does not grow as fast as the ground lizard, its feathers are used to make feather arrows and crossbow arrows. Lord Randal encourages his people to raise red-headed geese, so there is no need to hand over the geese. If a certain number of goose eggs are handed in, they can be used as half a month of labor. The only disadvantage of raising geese is that it consumes too much feed. However, this is not a problem for the Roberts.
George Village has 400 square kilometers of common land. These land and properties belong to Lord Randal. As long as the mayor of George Village allows him, Robert has the right to collect common land resources to subsidize his family. Raising pigs and geese is nothing difficult. In fact, the traditional leaders live on the properties of the commons.
In addition to farming and breeding, the Robert's family regularly collects common land resources, and the work tasks released by George Village are also open to them first. But Robert really doesn't have the energy to accept employment. His eldest son, Cybbins, is hiring Legion to serve, his second son, Mark, is helping cook in the canteen, and he himself has to receive a week of militia training every month.
Robert also doesn't know whether he is a leader or a vassal, but he is sure that he is a subject of Lord Randal and is proud of it. He deeply understands that the whole family has no worries about food and clothing, has a stable life, and has a balance every year, but if you want to live better, there must be more people. At present, Katie is pregnant, and the other children are underage. The hard work outside and at home depends on his and Marcy's two strong labors. Now, he only hoped that Severin could help the family.
Marcy has a different idea.
The migrants have no fixed place, so if there is work, they will move there. For the refugees, walking alone is a very stupid act, and the level of danger is no less than being exiled into the wilderness. Refugees need to guard against the same kind (tragic bandits), guard against wild beasts, guard against unprovoked killing and extortion by High Level people. Moreover, job opportunities need to be grabbed, and whoever has the strongest fist will have food. Therefore, the refugees must hold a group to keep warm, ranging from dozens of people to hundreds of people, united by the leaders of the refugees, and make a living everywhere.
Marcy is such a leader of the refugees. Although she is a woman, she is tall and strong, strong as an ox, and two or three brawny man can't control her. As the leader of the refugees, she dared to fight, a wolf fang club resulted in more than a dozen lives. As a woman, she also has a delicate side. She is fair and knows how to win people’s hearts. She only sleeps with the handsomest and weakest man in the gang. , She doesn't need to rob women with strong men, so the relationship between the gang members is relatively stable.
Marcy has a reputation in the gang. Even if she was defeated by other refugee gangs and had to leave Wild Willow City, there were still a group of people who followed her to the Lander.
Different from other territories, Randal cannot tolerate the prestigious heads of refugees, and those overlooked heads of refugees have been ruthlessly suppressed. At this time, Marcy's delicate side played a role. She no longer contacted her subordinates, and moved to Filo Village with a man and a pair of children, and became a woman with peace of mind.
Randal led the implementation of building houses and recruiting managers and mercenaries. Marcy thinks this is an extremely rare opportunity. She urges a man to enlist in the army, but she dare not live or die. Marcy kicked him straight away, and then she brought her children to George Village to find her former subordinate Robert.
Robert is at the bottom of the refugee gang, but he is particularly tolerant of women and children. As long as a woman is willing to follow him, he will treat her child as his own.
No matter how big or small, every mouth needs to be eaten. Not many refugees are willing to use hard-earned money to raise other people's children. They laugh at Robert as a stupid donkey, and they lose their brains when they see a woman. Marcy thinks Robert is affectionate and true. Except for the one in Katie's belly, none of Robert's five children are his own flesh and blood.
Can you eat affectionate and true?
The women who dragged oil bottles were rejected by the refugee men, and the men who dragged the oil bottles were even more rejected by the refugee women. Robert dragged the five children and was so poor that Marcy, the leader of the refugees, would never look down on him. But in Randal, Robert is the object Marcy can entrust for life, because he has five children.
Marcy discovered that the Viscount Randal treats refugee families very preferentially. The boundaries between the refugees, leaders and vassals led by Randal are very blurred, but the treatment of family and bachelor is as different as heaven and earth, and there is child A family with no child is different from a family without a child. For families with children, parents will get more job opportunities. Father Miller’s church only supports children. The small churches in each village even help parents take care of children between the ages of 3 and 5, so that they have time to work and earn money and improve their lives.
Marcy suddenly realized that the Randal Family valued child. Although I don’t know why, Robert has five children. It’s right to choose him!
She took out all the family properties to help Robert build a house and settle in. Sabins became a hired soldier, and the status of Robert's family in George Village rose sharply. Later, Sabinesto got a relationship to help Marcy's son Karl, and Robert also worked very hard on her. Marcy's married life can be said to be a harmonious husband and wife. According to Robert's original words: Actually I wanted to sleep with you a long time ago.
If Marcy is a man, she must be a mercenary personally, but unfortunately she is not, and the mercenary led by Randal does not recruit women. Therefore, Marcy is determined to be a good wife and a good mother. She always goes all out in her work.
Wife respects her husband, Marcy did it. Mothers in large families must not only be kind to their children, but also be fair. Although Robert's child is not her biological flesh and blood, Marcy has this ability. She was the leader of the refugees.
Since Sybbins and Karl have their own careers, at least give Severin a chance to pursue his dreams. The Roberts have this condition. They are now the children of Lord Randal.
"Boy, how many times are you going to try? It can't be endless, right?" Robert asked glumly.
"Five times, no, ten times, try ten times again." Severin wiped the corners of his mouth and said with joy: "I know two uncles, Wright and Touran. They know a lot. They helped me make paper for the past two days. Although they did not succeed, Wright thought that if two kinds of weeds were added, it might be successful!"
"Two bachelors must have this ability, why should they help? You?" Robert said with a sneer disdainfully.
Marcy frowned and asked, "Is Tunan a bald head with dark skin?"
"Yes, yes, yes...he even has bald eyebrows." Severin Nodded again and again, said with a smile: "Tunan is very good to eat. I picked two round melons and prepared it for him."
"Your big brother is going home today, you take Wright and Tunan Please come over for lunch too. I'm going to steam the goose and pig's feet." Marcy turned her head, a pair of bull eyes stared at her husband, instructed: "You first go to the node reservoir to buy two blue salmon, and then come back to make up for sleep. The blue salmon needs at least 2 feet long."
"That would cost a lot of money..." Robert whispered gu lu.
Marcy ignored him and said to Severin: "Go to work as soon as you finish eating. Don't give someone a position."
"Thank you, Mom." Savelin He carried the basket on his back and walked out through the door.
Robert finally couldn't help asking: "Why are we inviting two bachelors to come as guests? We are also decent people in the village now."
"This week's turn You stayed vigil outside the village and went to sleep when you came back. Where do you know what happened in the village?" Marcy squinted at her husband and said, "I heard that Wright and Tunan were introduced by Father David. Village Chief George was very kind to them. Personally arrange the accommodation for the two of them. It seems that they must be relatives of Father David."
"That's the time to stammer them." Robert lifted his spirits and stood up and said, "In the morning. There are few people, I will pick some good fish back."
