Chapter 90: The Internal Crisis of Copper Mountain I
"Don't worry, Tina, Nia, they'll be back safe. ”
"Hmm!" Tina nodded vigorously.
Close is actually not so optimistic, he is very worried about the situation in Blackwater Town, once Blackwater Town falls into the hands of the Seatta Kingdom, then Copper Mountain Town will also be greatly affected.
It is precisely because of this that Cross buys back easy-to-grow food and easy-to-raise chickens from Sunset City, and self-sufficiency is a prerequisite for surviving in troubled times.
However, he never gave up the battle for Blackwater Town, and he also had a rough plan, and when the time came, he only needed to change it according to the actual intelligence of Blackwater Town.
Today, the timber they cut down is part of a plan to storm Blackwater.
......
The construction of the granary has been completed, which is faster than Cross expected, and looking at the completed granary, Cross is determined to bring back all the grain in Blackwater Town.
Wendy saw that Cross was staring blankly at the granary, so she walked over, "Lord Cross, you have worked hard today. ”
Seeing that it was Wendy, Cross shook his head helplessly, "Their motivation is too poor. ”
"It's pretty good, sir, they're not professional loggers. ”
"I think it's very good, I cut 13 pieces of wood that is so long and thick!" Tina comforted Cross.
But Cross knows very well that those people are not trying their best, let alone giving 100% motivation, not even 50%, they have a lot of room for improvement.
"Wendy, gather everyone together after dinner, and I'm going to have a few words to say to everyone. ”
"Yes! ”
"By the way, those blacksmiths won't be used. ”
"Yes!"
Cross turned his gaze to Tina, "Tina, you and Randall won't be used anymore. ”
"Okay! My lab is going to speed up. ”
"Remember to tell Randall to get him up to speed. ”
"Uh-huh!"
......
Due to the scarcity of materials in Tongshan Town, dinner can only be served, and most people can still accept it, but the Hofel people are not very happy, they enjoy the treatment of nobles in Longlin Castle.
"Your Majesty, this place is so barren that everything has to start from scratch, and I'm afraid I won't last long. ”
"Yes, Your Majesty Ulala, why do we have to follow a poor lord, even if we can't be bullied by humans here, but the living conditions here are too bad. ”
"He's going to let us do things for him first! When will we start building our own house?"
A group of Hoffers formed a circle in the wasteland, and in the middle was their empress, Ulala.
After only one day, the people of Hofel were complaining, and their complaints were trying to force Ulala to make the decision to leave. Even, even Ku Bo Bo and Ulala's own brother are clamoring to leave Tongshan Town.
Of course, as the empress, Ulala will not be affected so easily. But for so many real complaints, she couldn't do anything, she didn't dare to say anything, she was afraid of provoking a more violent reaction from the clansmen, she could only wait for the development of Tongshan Town.
As the Empress, she knows better what the Hofer really need.
Not enjoyment, not comfort, but peace.
At this moment, Reiner, who was limping, dragged his heavy body and shouted, "After dinner, all gather at the granary, Lord Cross has something to say to everyone!"
The original inhabitants of Copperhill and the newly bought humans consciously walked towards the granary, but the Hofers remained motionless.
"We're not going. "It's Ku Bo Bo who speaks.
"Yes, no. From now on, I will not be under the jurisdiction of Copper Mountain Town!"
"We have our own way of life, why should we live with humans!"
The Hoffil people who said these words were more and more excited, and they wished they could leave Copper Mountain Town now, if it weren't for their short legs, they would have run out long ago.
Due to the delay in the arrival of the Hofel, Cross's speech was delayed.
Those who are impatient have already started to develop bad emotions.
"Those dwarf winter melons, what the hell are they doing!"
"That's it, Lord Harm and we are all waiting here!"
"Those are useless guys who can't do anything. ”
"That's right, I think they managed a chicken pen in a whole day. ”
"It's annoying! We can't do anything, and we have to waste our food. ”
"Be quiet, what will the lord think if you say that. ”
"I'm telling the truth. ”
"Alas...... I don't know what the lord thinks......"
The natives of Copperhill are apparently repulsive to the Hoffers, while the people from Sunset City have little problem and have not yet adapted to life here.
However, these words of the residents have been heard by the wood fairy Link, and have been relayed to Cross.
Cross was a little helpless, if he continued like this, before the enemy could attack, Copper Mountain Town itself would collapse first.
He didn't want to see such a result, he made a temporary decision, he was going to be ruthless!
His piercing eyes swept over everyone, and then said in a stern tone, "Everyone stands in two rows, one for men, one for women, women in front, men in the back, from left to right, from short to tall!"
After the formation of the formation, you can move in your position, but you must not leave your position. ”
As soon as these words came out, everyone panicked, this suffocating oppressive tone was obviously not acting, they knew that this time, the lord was serious!
Due to the small number of women and the fact that they worked well together, the queue was completed quickly.
The men in the back row were a little messy, especially those men from Sunset City, they didn't even understand what Cross was saying, they just felt the unprecedented sense of oppression, and they panicked and followed behind the aborigines of Copperhill Town.
And the aborigines don't have the patience to explain to people who don't understand so much, and the only one who is explaining is Reiner.
Finally, after a few minutes of chaos, the men's queue was also completed.
"Do you know how long it took you?" said Cross, still stern.
"Seven minutes, seven full minutes to get the queue out. Men of Copper Mountain, I'm ashamed of you!
If, I mean if, if Seajarda's army comes to attack at night today, we're all going to die!
Think about why this is happening, and ask the ladies in front of you for advice, but remember, don't leave where you are, or the consequences will be serious. ”
With that, Cross leaves, arranging for Wendy and Reiner to watch the entire queue and drop a sentence before leaving.
"I'll be back soon, and if everyone does what I ask for during this time, I'll reward everyone for eating meat, and if one person doesn't do it, everyone will be punished, and the more people who don't do it, the more severe the punishment will be.
Those who are punished, including myself!"
