Chen Shihao was very sensitive to find that the old man just looked at the villagers who were marked out with regret, and did not look at the hunters, it seems that their relationship is not good. It's just that Chen Shihao is also strange, didn't he say 2 hunters? But now it's obviously 5 families, but this is a good thing for 3 hunters, Chen Shihao naturally won't extrapolate, after all, they themselves have already admitted that they are their own people.

"Very well, what are your houses in the village?" Chen Shihao nodded and asked.

Everyone looked at each other for a moment, and finally the middle-aged hunter came out and replied, "Sir, those houses are the houses of our hunters, and the houses of the tenant farmers have been scattered to other places. ”

Following the middle-aged hunter's fingers, the five stone houses were the smallest, and they were also the outermost of the village, but fortunately, they were not close to the entrance of the village, but were biased towards the side of the mountains and forests, so the demon tide just now did not affect their houses.

Chen Shihao nodded and called out to the old man who was about to leave: "Just now you said that you wanted to ask me to calm my anger and are willing to apologize, right?"

The old man hesitated and nodded, and the villagers all calmed down, although Chen Shihao couldn't bully them, the lords of Earl West, but if they offended Chen Shihao first, Chen Shihao would be justified in bullying. So everyone is desperate to settle the offensive matter sooner.

"Okay, it shouldn't be a problem for you to give up the stone house near the five hunters for my people to live in, so that my people can gather together, right?" asked Chen Shihao.

The old man's face was relieved, and he nodded hurriedly: "There is no problem, the old decay will let people give up the stone house." "This kind of thing is really a gesture, because it is close to the periphery, and the other villagers are eager to exchange it for Chen Shihao's lords. As for Chen Shihao's lords, although they were a little reluctant to move out of the village center, they obviously didn't want to punish themselves for looking at the lord's appearance, so how dare they say more? Moreover, the villagers' direct abandonment of them just now also hurt them very much, plus their lord is a strong warrior, and it must be safer to live close to the lord, for these reasons, they also moved obediently.

The people who live here don't have any big furniture, they are all small bits and pieces, so the move was completed quickly, and the villagers of Shanxia don't know if they are afraid of provoking Chen Shihao, a bad talker, or what, they actually intentionally or unintentionally vacate a few more houses close to the five Orion stone houses to create a hidden isolation belt.

Chen Shihao didn't care about this kind of behavior of vaguely isolating himself from these people, but felt better, so that he could focus on managing his own people, looking at the 11 men, 13 women, 7 children, 3 old men, a total of 34 people, Chen Shihao couldn't help but smile: "Everyone, now everyone is my people, let me introduce you first, my name is Chen Shihao, The independent servant of the Earldom of West, this is my pet kitten, and everyone will follow me to live in the future, so you can also introduce yourself and let me know what to call you!"

Everyone obviously didn't expect this big man to suddenly be so easy to speak, hesitated for a moment, and an old man with a beast claw scar on his face came out first and said: "I've seen the old man, the old slave's name is Oak, and he is the head of one of the original two Orion households, and that is the eldest son of the old slave, called Ou Da, and that is the youngest son of the old slave called Ou Er." ”

The lord is the private property of the lord, except that unlike slaves, who can sell and kill at will, other powers are not much higher than slaves, so they all call themselves slaves in front of the lord, and only free people can call themselves me.

However, despite this, the lords are definitely not comparable to slaves, because the lords can escape, they can switch to other lords, and at most two lords will have a war of words, and the result will either be compensation or return to the lords, and the fleeing lords will not be harmed at all.

Of course, there are quite a few lords who have lost their subjects who don't care or don't care that their people run away. But if it is a slave, there is absolutely no other lord who will accept it, and the lord will definitely go after and kill the escaped slave, and the other lords will either send it back to the original owner to sell it or sell it directly.

With the introduction of the old man, the middle-aged hunter and a young hunter who had just come out to guide the house came out, and they came out with not only a mother-in-law, but also a young son.

"I've seen the master, the old slave's name is Jack, and he is the head of one of the original 2 hunters, the eldest son of the old slave, called Jieda, the second son is called Jieer, and the third son is called Jiesan, this is the mother-in-law of the old slave. The other old man, waiting for the previous introduction, also stood up and pointed to the other three hunters and the old woman.

Although the Jack Orion family had three sons, and all three sons had children and children, there was only one grandson, and the other two were granddaughters. The other lords were not as lucky as Orion, and all of them were families reformed after the original tenant family was destroyed, and although they formed three families with three adult males, they supported each other into one big family, and the seven children and two girls were brought up by three adult men and four women.

Chen Shihao, who knew this, couldn't help but smile with satisfaction, he originally thought that the proportion of Orion's power in his own people was too large, and it was a bit big, but he didn't expect the tenant farmers to actually unite, although there were relatively few adult men among the tenant farmers, and they were divided into 3 households, but they could be regarded as one household, and Orion had many men, and they were also 5 households, but they only needed to be regarded as two households. In this way, it seems that the power of these three families is also balanced. As long as those little boys and teenagers grow up and start their own families, their own territorial structure will be stable.

"Well, although my territory is small and the population is small, I also have to have rules, I need two deputies to help manage it, Ou Da and Tebi, are you two willing to be my deputies?" Chen Shihao said, pointing to the eldest son of Ou Ke and the middle-aged man who was a tenant farmer.

That Tebby, shocked, immediately ran out and knelt on the ground to kiss Chen Shihao's boots, and said gratefully: "Thank you, master! Your slave Tebi will definitely swear to serve you!"

And that Ou Da only reacted after slapping Oak, and also forced himself to kneel on the ground and kiss Chen Shihao's boots excitedly, and said the same words of gratitude and allegiance as Natby.

Chen Shihao was a little helpless about their actions, but there was no way, in this world, they had to kiss the boots of the promoters for the promotion of freemen and tenant farmers to be stewards. In addition to sacrificing sacrifices to the gods and performing ceremonies, it is also necessary to kiss the rings of the superior in order to promote samurai, canonize knights, and appoint stewards.

Chen Shihao did not kiss Jay's golden knight's ring, because Jaylen Knight gave up the power of the king, and Chen Shihao became an independent servant of the Earl of West, although he became an independent servant, he only needed to pay military service or shield tax when the Earl of West issued a general mobilization order, and he didn't have to pay a fee after zero in normal times, but it also meant that he had no backer from now on, not only would no one come forward to help if there was something, but also that he had to fight any disaster by himself, and he didn't have to fantasize about any subsidy, and he was completely left to fend for himself。

Chen Shihao thought about the rules for a while and said, "Well, as long as you are loyal to me, I will give you shelter." After the ceremony of appointment was completed, he asked them to get up: "All right, Tebi, you take the old and the young to mark my 300 acres of fertile land, so that our wheat will not be cut by anyone." Ouda, you take the rest of the men and women to cut down the trees and fence off our stone houses. ”

Hearing this, everyone was excited, the 300 acres of fertile land is already a wheat field that can be harvested, it is really cool, it is equivalent to the whole village helping them to cultivate, but there is no share. And although the harvest per mu of these 300 acres of fertile land is not much, there are only more than 30 people on my side to eat, and I can definitely live a good year!

However, unlike everyone's excitement, Tebi and Ou Da both had sad faces, Ou Da hesitated for a moment before carefully reminding: "Master, we don't have logging tools, how can we cut wood?" and Tebi also followed up and said: "Master, we don't have ropes, and we don't know how to measure, how do we divide the fields?"

"I procured a lot of tools, and they were on the bullock cart. "Chen Shihao solved the problem of Ouda first, as for the problem of Tebi, the previous one is nothing, and there are such bits and pieces on the ox cart, but they don't know how to measure, which is troublesome, so they can only let Chen Shihao go out himself. The lord dispatched, and naturally sent Tebi to cut wood, and the two deputies were in the logging team, so he naturally divided the young men and women who were logging into two groups evenly and let Tebi and Ou Da lead them, anyway, Chen Shihao would not be stupid enough to set up a No. 2 person under his command, and would only set up a No. 3 person with equal strength.

Chen Shihao also couldn't understand how he naturally knew about these shady methods, but he didn't reject them, wouldn't it be good if this was not good?

Seeing the large amount of materials on the ox cart, Chen Shihao's leaders cheered, and they rushed to move these materials into the stone house in the center of this small stronghold, and then began to work with tools, and the ox cart naturally became a tool cart for transporting timber.

Chen Shihao took a group of old and young people to the farmland, and when they passed through the abyssal crack, those children automatically stopped and moved the demon corpses to the edge of the farmland to prepare for fertilizer. Originally, Chen Shihao didn't know that the corpse of the little devil could fertilize the field, but when he saw the villagers of the mountain gorge who were cleaning the battlefield, he guessed that it seemed that humans and demons were actually just biological chains that devoured each other.

Just look at the performance of those little children, maybe they don't know how many times they have experienced this scene since they were born, so whether it is a boy or a girl, there is no discomfort at all about such a bloody scene, but it is as easy as handling pork, and even some naughty children even kick the head of the little devil as a ball.

Seeing that the avenue was quickly cleaned up, Chen Shihao suddenly patted his head and asked the three old men who came to help, "How often does this abyss crack usually appear?"

That Oak preemptively said: "Master, according to past experience, after an abyssal crack appeared here in our Shanxia Village, the next time it appeared would be half a year later. But other places are not sure, and there are abyssal cracks in other places now. ”

Chen Shihao nodded with a sigh of relief, if the abyss crack here appeared every few days, I believe that there will definitely not be hundreds of villagers in Shanxia Village who will rely here, and they will have already collapsed and fled, I believe that even thousands of troops stationed in the village will not be able to withstand the demon tide once every few days!

"What is the purpose of that little black bead of the demon core?" Chen Shihao asked again.

This time, it was the old man Jack who rushed to answer: "Master, the old slave knows." ”
