"Sister Beth, you really are...... Oh, I mean the lord. Linda quietly touched Beth's side, and as she spoke, she subconsciously looked around, lest the elusive guy suddenly pop out of nowhere.

"You don't want to ...... Talk nonsense. Beth's hand trembled slightly, and a visible flush appeared on her always cold face.

In fact, when she heard Saul say that just now, her heart was full of sweetness and happiness, after all, the two had never deliberately emphasized their relationship with each other in any public setting. But after today, it will definitely spread in the territory soon.

When she heard that Thor was going to build a territory, she didn't know what the outcome would be. Unexpectedly, in the blink of an eye, he was already a high lord, and he had no strength, and he still had flaws in his appearance, which made Beth's invisible inferiority complex and pressure seem to be even greater.

"No one in my territory has ever dared to talk nonsense. Thor popped out like a ghost, squeezing her away in little Shroom's panic, then wrapped his arms around Beth's waist from behind, rubbing his face against her cheek.

Beth smiled reassuringly at this familiar feeling and way, but the next moment she suddenly struggled violently.

She suddenly remembered that it wasn't just two people alone now, but at the distribution point, and the surrounding lords might have seen it in full view, which made Beth even more shy.

"I just like the way you want to run but can't escape. Thor hugged Beth tightly to prevent her from breaking free.

"Badass!" Beth felt the gaze of Linda next to her, and Beth became even more shy.

"Isn't it? But if you're talking about being in bed at night, then I'll reluctantly admit it. Thor hung his head on Beth's shoulder and continued to tease, causing Linda, who was listening with her ears pricked up, suddenly red-faced and confused.

"Uncle, uncle, did you beat the bad guys just now?" A little girl of five or six years old suddenly ran to the front of the distribution point without knowing where to go, and the person was not as high as the counter, so she looked up at Beth and Thor.

This is...... Whose stupid kid?

"What did you just call me?" Thor glared at her with a dark face, bluffing the child into a small mouth, as if he was about to cry, and startled the parents who didn't hold the child behind and chased after him.

"It's dried honey, I'll give you a chance to shout again. Think about it, if you're smart enough to shout right, these candies are yours. A handful of dried fruit suddenly appeared in Thor's hand and reached out to the little girl.

Before the little girl could cry, she was attracted by the sweetly scented dried fruit in front of her, and pointed her finger at her little mouth, and came to the crossroads of life. Hurry up and call 'Lord Lord', the parents next to me are dying in a hurry, and they don't dare to make a loud prompt.

"Brother, brother, did you beat the bad guy away just now?" After a while, the little girl seemed to have an answer, and raised her little face again.

"Clever, you got the kid right. Thor shoved the dried fruit into the little girl's pocket, and rubbed her little head.

"What are you doing to scare a child?" Beth laughed and slapped Thor's arm around her waist twice, making Linda next to her shiver in an instant.

"Why, do you think I'm old, I'm a delicate flower, okay?" Thor looked at Beth strangely.

Linda next to her couldn't hold it anymore, so she could only let out some intermittent snort like a pig and fled in a hurry. She felt that she had reached her limit, and that the innocent world in her heart had long since fallen apart.

"You don't have to kill for me. After laughing for a while, Beth no longer refused Thor's pampering, leaned her head on his shoulder, and looked at the people who came and went around her with some emotion.

"Actually, it's not just for you, I've been looking for opportunities to stand up. After all, everything has been so smooth lately, rather than making them admire me or secretly make them feel intimidated, it will be beneficial for future management. ”

The reason why Huaike was killed today is not only to eliminate the poisonous insects in the territory but also to indirectly improve the obedience of the people, which can be regarded as killing two birds with one stone, and I believe that today's matter will soon spread in the territory. Give him a hat to covet the lord's wife, and the lords won't think much about it.

"And what's the main thing next?" said Beth, swaying gently as Thor embraced.

"With the replenishment of manpower, it is almost time to widen the wheat fields in preparation for next year's spring planting. Until then, though, I expect the goblins to raid one last time before winter, so we still have a battle to fight. Saul replied.

"By the way, speaking of food, the total amount of food I have counted so far seems to be a bit reluctant to correspond to the current population, is it enough to support us through this winter?"

"It's not a big problem, in fact, the people already have surplus food after the autumn harvest in their hands, and even if we don't come, they have to find a way to get through it themselves. The support I provide is just to keep them fed and add more variety to the food. ”

"On your side, what about the statistics of the various craftsmen?" Thor asked after a moment's thought.

"In addition to the blacksmith Jeff you came into contact with before, there are two carpenters and a cobbler, and these are the only production professions in the territory for the time being. Beth replied, knowing that Thor had always cared about these middle-class craftsmen.

"It's good that three small villages can find such a few people, but what about combat effectiveness?"

"Well, in addition to the Wyke you killed just now, there are currently three first-order in the territory. It just so happened that there was one in the ash stump of Tidal Village and one in the original settlement, two men and one woman, but they were both hunters. Beth thought for a moment and concluded.

Thor was not surprised by this result, as it had always been difficult for these small villages to survive, so naturally they did not dare to spend their already weak population in pursuit of any strength, and only the profession of hunter, which often entered the wilderness, could grow.

"Three is fine, I will pay attention to them, and you can also look at them more in your usual contact. If the character is still passable, then find an opportunity to pull them into the management to take charge of the overall situation, and then we can get out. Saul added.

"Get out, so what are we going to do?" Beth wondered.

"What is lacking in the territory at the moment is not food or supplies, but money. It is necessary to recruit people from other territories and buy many things such as grain, seeds, ores, weapons, etc., and coins are the real hard currency. ”

"Although I use the ring to grab profits, although it is stable, it will take a long time and a trade process. Like the places in the territory that need to use money quickly, this way of accumulating wealth seems a bit slow. ”

"So I'm going to wait for the territory to be roughly stable, then I'll take you and Stante and them, and we'll go to a big city to do a ticket together, and then it's a matter of stealing, robbing or cheating, in short, what to do with the money." Saul replied.

"To the big cities, do you mean the main cities that are thriving?" asked Beth.

"Almost, but if you want to go, you can go to the biggest, since Odrenna can't go, but Arlantis of the Freedom Alliance and Byron Bian, the imperial capital of the Knights' Country, can still go. ”

"However, the Dark Council and the Freedom Alliance have been fighting for hundreds or thousands of years on the surface, and it is estimated that there is already a situation of you and me and you in secret, and if I don't show up, it will cause some trouble, so I decided to go to the country of knights. ”

"We haven't been there yet, so we can stop by and experience the prosperity and pattern of others. How about it? Would you like to enjoy the scenery of Byron Bian, the royal capital of the Kingdom of Knights?" Thor smiled at Beth.

Beth nodded without hesitation, there was some yearning in her eyes, after all, it was good to be able to go to a bright and prosperous place, and of course, the most important thing was to go with him.

"It's not impossible if you want to go, now you have two choices, either wait until the night in bed and beg me, or ......" Thor let go of Beth, then playfully raised his finger and tapped his lips lightly.

This guy is going to be bad again, but his bad appearance is really very nostalgic. Beth stroked her hair, stopped twisting it, and finally blushed and put her little mouth up.

But after stretching her neck for a long time and not kissing anything, Beth subconsciously leaned forward, and then realized that something was wrong.

When she opened her eyes, she found that she was the only one here, stretching her neck like a stupid goose, and there was still Thor around. However, the onlookers around cast a good-natured smile.

In the eyes of everyone, Beth could no longer hold it up, and fled shyly. But he suddenly crashed into a figure in a black coat, and was instantly kissed breathlessly, and the cheers of the people were heard all around.

"No shame, no shame, no shame, no shame" On the side ......of the material distribution point, the dagger in Linda's hand kept flying, but her mouth kept chattering.

These two guys didn't care about the public, they just stuck together for a long time, and they flirted in public, so they couldn't take care of the mood of the surrounding audience? What about the lord? Is it great? Can the lord be shameless? Linda was indignant.

"I asked you to help me prepare food, not to make sewing needles. Tanar looked at her daughter with a smile, the carrot in Linda's hand could have been simply peeled, but now it was almost sharpened into needles by Linda.

"Wow~" Hearing her mother's teasing tone, Linda blushed and threw the carrot and dagger into the vegetable bowl filled with water, stomped her feet and ran away.

Gradually, the people have become accustomed to Thor's elusive and ubiquitous style.

Sometimes, he just stood there, as quiet as a tree. I have to wait for a certain lord to suddenly react for a short time, God, it turns out that the lord has been standing next to me just now.

Sometimes, he would laugh and chat with the people about a variety of topics. Or teach the lords some practical skills in daily life, so that the lords think that the lord is actually very good at life.

Soon, the last days of late autumn finally passed away with the swirling leaves, and winter arrived silently.
