Chapter 17 Andrew's Determination

Throughout the whole article, Derek didn't say a single superfluous word.

But his second uncle Andrew is a smart man, he can definitely see the meaning behind the full paper.

Want people!

Derek sent his knight squire Simon back with a few soldiers, and he didn't come empty-handed.

The wages sent back by the soldiers, the gifts brought to his second uncle Andrew, and the resettlement fee.

What is the resettlement fee for?

Of course, it is used to recruit people.

As the actual manager of Maiduo Village, Andrew made some small moves in private, and no one could stop him.

For the future of his son, he is definitely willing to take some risks.

Even if he was discovered by his eldest brother, at most he would scold him.

Can his own younger brother really punish his own son for secretly digging into his own family?

The human relations and worldly affairs were arranged by Derek.

...

Simon was very excited. Following Lord Derek completely changed his fate.

In almost a year, the farm boy has become a strong knight squire.

And what he saw and heard also greatly changed his horizons.

Of course, there is also Lord Derek, who is really amazing.

He has also seen members of the Ferreira family, but no one can compare to the Lord.

In his opinion, it is right for Baron Ferreira to pass the title to the Lord.

Simon returned to Maiduo Village with a few soldiers.

He first sent back the family letters and salaries brought by the soldiers. The money was enough for the family to live a comfortable life, and even add one or two more people.

Going out to serve as a soldier saves a portion of rations and has income, which is of great significance to farmers' families.

In fact, a large number of babies are abandoned and drowned every year, which is also a reason that affects population growth.

Simon's arrival naturally alarmed Andrew.

As a sheriff, all outsiders are the objects of his interrogation, not to mention several fully armed soldiers.

But when he arrived, he found that everything was a misunderstanding.

"Simon? Are you the boy who went with my nephew?"

Andrew has a good memory, and Maiduo Village is not big, so he recognized Simon at a glance.

But when he saw Simon again, he was wearing leather armor inlaid with a lot of iron sheets, a black long sword hanging on his waist, a sturdy body, and a fierce aura.

If he didn't know him, he would have thought he was a wandering knight from somewhere.

And there was a very strong warhorse next to him, a real warhorse, not one of those guys who made up the numbers.

He remembered that when his nephew left, he was riding an ordinary packhorse.

This set of equipment must cost at least 10 or 20 gold coins. Has his nephew really made it?

This is too fast.

Andrew couldn't believe it, but Simon was no longer a farm boy who he could scold at will.

Fortunately, Simon knew that Andrew had a very good relationship with his own knight. When he saw Andrew, he took the initiative to come over and saluted.

"Sheriff Andrew, I have a letter from the lord to you, a letter to Baron Ferreira and others, and some gifts."

Derek not only wrote a letter to Andrew, but of course he couldn't forget to win over others.

But this was just a polite greeting, plus some small gifts.

Andrew then believed that his nephew had really made it.

For a second son of a noble family, it was not easy to have a way out, just like himself.

Seeing that there were many people around, he took Simon back to his home.

After asking about what Derek was doing, Simon just vaguely said that he was doing some business, and didn't say anything specific.

However, not everyone can do business nowadays, at least on a slightly larger scale.

"Could it be that the big shots from Count Perez supported him?"

Andrew guessed in his heart, thinking of his nephew's excellent results and leaving the Knights for no reason, could he be a white glove of some big shot?

Back home, there were no more scruples.

Andrew opened the letter directly. As a smart person, he saw the implication of Derek's words at a glance.

So... should I accept my nephew's invitation?

Of course.

Andrew made a decision quickly.

In the Ferreira family, Adrian could only become a flag captain at most, and there was a high probability that he would not be able to do it.

As the son of the eldest brother, the heirs of other brothers, the competition pressure was very high.

In the next generation, he might have to farm.

Without noble titles and fiefs, the family's glory cannot be maintained.

And those glories are not something that the collateral line can enjoy for a long time.

Rather than falling into decline after one generation, it is better to follow Derek to fight.

Simon presented the gift at the right time.

A standard wooden box with long swords in it.

Ten long swords, almost the same value as the fine iron sword he gave away.

Derek was very generous. If the labor is deducted, the total cost of his own production is only one gold coin.

These gifts are very easy to sell, whether Andrew uses them himself or sells them for money.

These made Andrew more determined.

"Simon, come with me to Ferreira Castle now and give the gifts and letters to the baron."

The two of them rushed all the way, and Simon was summoned by Baron Ferreira.

But he was very tight-lipped and did not reveal more information.

Baron Ferreira did not ask any more questions. After all, he was his son, and it was a good thing for him to have a career.

At the same time, he also noticed Andrew's little thoughts, but... forget it.

He had to maintain a certain degree of fairness in the Ferreira family.

But secretly, it was normal to be biased.

After all, Derek was the most outstanding son at present, so he was inevitably favored.

But he didn't expect that Andrew's hoe was more fierce than he thought.

Adrian is now just a member of the Ferreira family cavalry, without even a formal position and title.

The so-called knight training is just some basic education.

Andrew got the consent of Baron Ferreira and took him away directly.

Adrian was actually a little unhappy. After all, the family's equipment, war horses and weapons were left behind. Although he could go out to make a living, it was always difficult to accept for a while.

Andrew scolded him for this and made him face the reality.

"Go to your cousin, can he treat you badly?

Work hard for him, just like I am loyal to my brother, Derek is your feudal lord.

Don't be driven back, I will let your brother inherit the family business, you come back and farm honestly."

Andrew was ruthless enough, or he had been frustrated all his life, but he was actually holding back.

Now he couldn't fight anymore, but his son still had a chance.

While he was busy recruiting people for his nephew, he taught Adrian some experience in dealing with things.

Then, before Baron Ferreira could react, he urged Simon to run away with his people.

With fifty strong young men, Maiduo Village was almost emptied.

Even the farming next year would be slightly affected, but Andrew fought hard.
