The lord's house housed several influential men from Glynton Village, including blacksmiths, elders, huntresses, and a mad monk.

"Ahh The monk with a wine trough nose scolded and said.

"Archbishop of the Holy City?" Bruce looked at the monk in front of him, his head looked like a knife carved into an elm lump, his large red nose showed that he had been soaked in alcohol for many years, and his body represented the monk's robe of the church in tatters, worm eyes everywhere, and the monk's sandals on his feet were gray.

"That's right, my ancestors were the great Caesars, who had an emperor and four kings, and countless dukes and bishops." When the monk heard Bruce's question, he suddenly came to his senses, and he said with a spit flying, but the bad breath made the others cover their noses.

"Sidney shut your foul mouth, or I'll shoot all your rotten teeth with one arrow." The huntress said loudly to the monk.

"Uh, hmm." Hearing the words of the huntress, the crazy monk had to shut his mouth, Bruce looked carefully at the huntress in front of him at this time, this is a tall young woman, about one meter seven by sight, in this era of material poverty, it is indeed not easy to grow so tall, she is wearing a small chest wrapped in animal skin, delicate collarbones and fair skin, which makes people feel bright.

"It's like a model, huh." Bruce couldn't help whispering in admiration, but soon felt that his foot was stepped on hard, and he couldn't help but snort, and Bruce looked over and found that little Lori Anne did it.

"Hmph, lord, we don't have that much food to entertain these people." Little Lori Anne rolled her eyes, and when she saw Bruce staring at the huntress, she couldn't help but step on him angrily, and she didn't know why.

"Hehehe, honorable lord, my name is Eve, I am a hunter in your territory, I have provided prey for your family since the first lord, and it is my family's prerogative to use bows and arrows." The huntress saw little Lori Anne step on Bruce, and couldn't help but cover her mouth and snicker, and then she stood in front of Bruce, put her right hand on her chest and saluted Bruce and said.

"I see, you're welcome." Bruce nodded, he knew that the forests, rivers and land in the medieval territory belonged to the lord, and the animals in the forest also belonged to the lord, and no one could hunt without the consent and authorization of the lord, otherwise it would be considered poaching, and it would be gallows to catch it.

"Hello Lord, I am the elder of the village, and my name is Warren." An old man with gray hair walked cautiously in front of Bruce, and he bowed to Bruce in a proper manner.

"Hello Elder Warren, please help me in the future." Bruce raised his eyebrows, he knew that in a village, this kind of senior elder had the most right to speak, so he stepped forward to take his hand and said to Elder Warren in a sincere tone.

"Uh, this, this, thank you Lord for your trust." Warren was taken aback by Bruce's movements, and a nobleman actually held the hand of the serf equally, which was really unexpected, but he couldn't help but feel a warm current in his heart.

"Hehe, my lord, my name is Mickey, and Mickey is a blacksmith." Blacksmith Mickey rubbed his hands together and said embarrassedly.

"Of course, we're old acquaintances, aren't we?" Bruce stepped forward and patted him on the shoulder, the blacksmith father and son had a friendship with whom they had eaten.

After the introduction, everyone sat down at the wooden table by the fireplace, most of them were still very cautious about Lord Bruce, the mad monk Sidney still looked crazy, the huntress looked at Bruce quietly, as if she was examining him, and there was no other expression on Elder Warren's face.

"Ladies and gentlemen, although I am the new lord, I know that it takes many people to manage a fief well, and I would like to express my gratitude to you in advance, although I am replacing wine with water today, I believe that I will soon be able to celebrate with real wine." Bruce picked up a glass of water and said to the crowd.

"Hmm." Everyone looked at each other, this lord was really different from the other nobles they knew, for the nobles, the people in the territory were their property and tools, the nobles only needed to tell the serfs to do this or that, no nobles would discuss things with the serfs, because in the eyes of the nobles, the serfs were ignorant and ignorant.

"Goo." Bruce craned his neck and drained the cup of water, and he continued to look at the crowd.

"Goo, goo." The people hurriedly picked up their cups and drank the water inside.

"Ahh The mad monk chattered.

"Yes, we'll have that good wine one day." Bruce didn't pay attention to the mad monk's words, and he said with a faint smile.

"Hehehe, my lord, our territory is the most barren place in this county, not to mention good wine, it's good to have ale wine to drink." The huntress crossed her legs and said with a smile on her face, those two straight and slender legs, which made Bruce's eyes flutter.

"Don't say that, since the lord is so ambitious, we will serve you loyally." Elder Warren said to the others.

"Oh?" There was disdain in the huntress's eyes, the old fellow was always with the mud.

"Ping-pong." Suddenly, Bruce slammed the cup in his hand on the table, and the noise startled everyone.

"I only agree with half of what Elder Warren said, and I don't think it's a question of faithfulness or disloyalty, but a question of how to lead Grington to prosperity, don't you want to live a truly prosperous life for yourself and your families?" Bruce said to everyone with great righteousness, and he waved his hand like a leader speech.

"Ugh."

"Poof."

"Hahahaha."

As soon as Bruce's words fell, everyone couldn't help but laugh after being stunned, and this laughter made Bruce simply inexplicable.

", this is what the village party secretary often says, there's nothing wrong with it!" Bruce wondered how such an inspiring speech could not resonate!

Next, the crowd didn't seem to feel anything about Bruce's words, they just swept away the food prepared by little Lorianne, then wiped their mouths, said a bunch of empty words to thank Bruce and left, facing a table of mess, Bruce lay weakly on the seat.

"Did I say the wrong thing?" Bruce couldn't help but ask little Lori Anne.

"Hmph, my lord, do you really not know or are you pretending?" Anne pouted and said angrily.

"What do I know?" Bruce's eyes widened and he asked little Lorianne.

"Do you know the origin of Greenton Village?" Anne sighed, sighing for her silly master, but she said anyway.

"Isn't Glinton Village just a village, the fief of the Locke family?" Bruce wondered that Bruce's memory was fragmented, so Sima Yuan could only get limited information.

"My lord, Glynton Village is a penal colony, and the villagers here are either exiles or descendants of exiles, many of whom are dangerous people in the Empire, and the Locke family's task is actually to take care of these dangerous people." Anne said to Bruce.

"Exile?" Bruce opened his mouth, he had no idea that this was a penal colony, and that the villagers were in fact criminals.

"Yes, the exiles here are criminals in the Pumen Bruce Empire, don't look at them as serfs now, but in fact, they were even nobles one or two generations ago, but during the battle between the black and white towers, the black king defeated the white king and became the emperor of the empire, and the nobles attached to the white king were either killed or exiled, and those nobles were also stripped of their titles and noble titles, and all of them were degraded as rebels and serfs overnight." Little Lori Anne spoke to Bruce.
