Chapter 0013: Black Tulips

"Hurry up, hurry up, damn stupid big man, grind and grind, are you looking for death! Lord Lord, you want to count the situation in your family, hurry up, put on your clothes, bring your mother-in-law and children over, gather in the open space in front, one less, be careful that I break your legs!"

The patrol members banged on the door of the thatched hut and yelled at the house.

Soon, all the farmers in Damaitun came out of their homes and gathered in the open field under the shouts of the patrol members.

Three, three, two, two, three, two, three, two

From time to time, I looked up at the table in the middle of the clearing, behind which sat a forty-year-old woman, dressed in a modest dark green dress, arranging a stack of thick paper. Behind the woman, there is also a young maid, who is helping to melt the ink in the teapot.

"Who's that?"

"I haven't seen it. ”

"Stupid, it must be the maid in the castle!"

"Yes, yes, look at her clothes, they have definitely been ironed, only the maid of the lord can wear such neat and clean clothes, unlike us, stinky and crumpled. ”

"What is the lord going to do, listen to the doglegs, you have to count...... What's the stats?"

"It's a statistical population. An elderly farmer, chewing on the grass roots of a certain plant in his mouth, "Ten years ago, the Earl sent someone to count it, and we had ...... in Damai Tun Yes...... There were many families of serfs, much more than there are now, and heck, many people died of starvation in that heavy snow seven years ago. ”

In front of the table.

The patrolman, who was still showing off his might just now, had already nodded and said to the two maids, "Mrs. Mawson, Miss Michonne, all the serfs in Big Maitun have been assembled. ”

"I'm not a young lady, I'm just a maid in the castle. Michonne Oxtail was actually happy with the title of Miss, and she smiled and asked, "Have you all arrived, and don't miss one, or the lord will punish us, including you." ”

"Of course, of course, I can assure you, they will never dare to hide. ”

Mrs. Mawson nodded: "Okay then, you go and let them come over one by one, and after counting the farmers, you can go home directly, and don't go back to register." ”

"Okay. ”

The patrol began to lead one serf after another to the table.

Mrs. Mawson asked, "Are you a parent?"

Huo ...... Hope, Mrs. ”

"Don't be nervous, it's your full name, including your last name, Mr. Hope. ”

"Oh, good...... Okay, my name is Hope Rancid. ”

"So, Mr. Hope, are all of you here, five of you, and what is the name of your wife, and what are your two sons and daughters...... How old you are, your profession, is what you are responsible for. Is it the same with your wife, is your eldest son working?"

Soon, Mrs. Mawson's inquiry was over, and she began to write down information on thick paper.

Serf head - Hope Ranshui, age 37, barley grower, able-limed, wife: Simon Ranshui, age 34, barley grower, able-bodied, eldest son, Lopo Ranshui, age 20, oat-grower, lame, second son, Peter Ranshui, age 17, barley grower, able-limbed, daughter-Lily Ranshui, age 15, home-raised chicken, able-bodied.

After recording the information, Mrs. Mawson checked it again.

After making sure that it was correct, she said gently, "Mr. and Mrs. Hope, your family can go back." ”

"Oh, good...... Good. ”

This scene lasted only one day, and stacks of thick paper were delivered to the castle and Liszt's desk, and the census of Flower Town was completed.

"Liszt, it's incredible, such a difficult task, in your hands, can be easily solved, you will be a qualified lord, definitely. Galtai exclaimed.

"Teacher Galtai, put the words of praise first, count the numbers of each tun, and summarize them to me. ”

"Willing to serve. ”

Perhaps it was Lisztley's resolute actions that put pressure on Galtai, a follower who had not become a consultant, to work late with a rare candle.

Early the next morning.

The statistics have already appeared in front of Liszt, who has finished breakfast and practiced knightly training classes.

"Master, Lord Galtai stayed up all night, and when he delivered the information, his eyes were full of bloodshots. Carter said, holding the thick paper.

"Good wine and good food, you always need to do something in return, Flower Town needs to develop, I don't want my territory to be as lifeless as it used to be. ”

Carter was in a trance, and only after a few seconds did he respond: "Master, I seem to have seen the high-spirited viscount when the earl was young, and in five years, he was promoted to the earl and opened up the tulip family's coral island rule. Flower Town has you as the lord, which is the luck of all the lords. ”

"Maybe. "Liszt was not modest.

Quietly looking at the thick paper, a thick stack, in fact, there is not much content, even if you write out the small characters with a quill pen, you still can't record many mosquitoes.

"Thick paper, it's really backward. ”

"Sir, we don't have much thick skin paper left, and this has consumed four-fifths of it. ”

"I know, I'll figure it out. "Papermaking has long been on Liszt's schedule, just waiting for the right time to finish.

It took half an hour to know all the data of Flower Town.

There are a total of eight tuns.

In the town, there are 257 households and 907 people, of which 41 households and 125 people are free people, and the rest are serfs.

Peanutun, 23 households, 92 people, all serfs.

Shiitake Mushroom, 68 households, 211 people, all serfs.

Tomato Tun, 30 households, 152 people, of which 10 households and 28 people are free people, the rest are serfs.

Damaitun, 48 households, 155 people, all serfs.

Wheatun, 101 households, 342 people, all serfs.

The flower farm, 21 households, 54 people, are all serfs.

Dairy farm, 18 households, 60 people, all serfs.

In the entire flower town, there are a total of 584 households and 1,973 people, only 51 households and 153 people are free people, and the rest are serfs. On the side of the castle, there were 10 servants, 4 knights, and two followers of Galtai and Marcus, including Liszt, 17 people.

Among them, Galtai and Marcus still have families, but they are in Coral City and do not come with them. You may not want to come, or you may have to wait a while to come.

So the total population of Flower Town is 1,990 people in total.

The vast majority of them are engaged in agriculture, growing barley, wheat, oats, tomatoes, shiitake mushrooms, peanuts, tulips, raising dairy cows, and a small number of chickens, ducks, geese, pigs, dogs and sheep.

Only 7 per cent of the population is engaged in handicrafts.

There is a tailor's shop, a blacksmith's shop, a carpenter's shop, a bakery, a mill, a grocer's shop, a tanner's shop, a barber's shop, and a locksmith's shop.

"The census is detailed enough, and now it's time to complete the task. Liszt thought to himself as he pushed away the thick skin paper in front of him that smelled faintly fishy.

At this moment, Carter, the old butler, came over again: "Master, great joy, the steward of the flower farm is here to report the happy event to you." ”

Hearing the words Flower Farm, Liszt's eyes lit up, and his heart knew that this was probably the reward of the mission: "Where is he, please come over...... What's the happy event?"

"It's a black tulip I've never seen before, sir, I'll bring him here. ”
