Chapter Thirty-Three: Set Sail Again

It was Shizuna Akiba who came out from behind the thatched house, and the first impression was pretty good.

Akiba Shizuna belongs to the upper middle class in terms of appearance alone, but poverty doesn't know how many people's backbones have been crushed, and Akiba Shizuna is no exception.

is only seventeen years old, and she does not have the youthful vitality of a girl, but is a little more mature and stable.

This kind of feeling should not appear in the body of a seventeen-year-old girl, the average woman has this obvious feeling, at least close to thirty years old, and even some women will not appear in the word mature and stable in their lifetime.

Meron took a serious look at Akiba Shizuna, took a deep breath and said, "Get up!" ”

The Viscount had spoken, and the old village chief and Akiba Shizuna slowly got up, but they both lowered their heads, obviously still a little restrained.

"Tell me about the consumption of flower seeds." Motioning for Yarina to talk to Shizuna Akiba, Meron glanced at the old village chief and asked.

Alina knew that Meron had left Jamie to her, and that Meron would have to deal with Flowerseed herself.

This is not a small matter, if the people in the village eat too many flower seeds, it will basically be wasted.

"Lord Hui, the harvest was not good last year, and I barely survived the winter after paying miscellaneous taxes, and when I got to the spring, there was no extra food except seeds, so I ......" The old village chief couldn't go on, after all, although the person who collected taxes was not Meilong, he was also Meilong's Laozi.

Saying that there is no food to eat flower seeds, is that indirectly saying that people collect more taxes?

The old village chief is a lot older, and he looks down on a lot of things, and who may want to die if he is alive.

Nodding slightly, Meron didn't continue to dwell on this matter.

Although he is angry, he can't complain about the old village chief, if he is in that position, he will be like this, as Akiba Shizuna said, you can't watch people starve to death.

"The villagers also know the dangers of flower seeds, and they try to hunt this season, even if there is no harvest, they don't eat flower seeds when they eat wild vegetables, which is basically the case in the surrounding villages." Seeing that Mei Long's anger had subsided a lot, the old village chief secretly wiped his cold sweat and continued.

No one wants to be unable to have children, there is no concept of fewer children or even Dink in this world, and they are all proud of the large number of people in the family.

After all, in this environment, being able to feed a large family is also a symbol of strength.

"In this way, when I leave the territory and go outside, each of your villages will send someone to the castle to collect some food, and I will have someone inform you of the specific time." After thinking for a moment, Meron sighed lightly.

I thought I could have some surplus food, but now I have to live a life when the landlord's family has no surplus food.

It's not true, it's not superficial......

Meron didn't stay in Ueda Village for long, and after learning more about the lives of the villagers, he left, obviously feeling a little lost.

However, Yalina and Akiba Shizuna had a good chat, and judging by the appearance of the separation, Akiba Shizuna should have passed Yarina's test.

"Do you feel that the living conditions of the people are too poor?" On the way back, Yalina saw Meron sullen and asked,

Now Yalina has changed from the original, although she is still cold, but she has learned to take the initiative to speak.

Without waiting for Meron to speak, Yalina continued: "The standard of living is indeed too poor, it turns out that I have seen many poor days, but it is not to the extent that I can even eat flower seeds. ”

When it comes to eating flower seeds, it is almost starving to death, and there is no choice.

"By the way, what's that Akiba Shizuna?" With people's livelihood issues in mind, Meron has not forgotten the purpose of going to Ueda Village this time.

"Well, it's not bad, sensible and clever, and you have a certain amount of courage, otherwise I wouldn't dare to speak for the old village chief when I first met you. As for the problem of flower seeds, this Jamie also knows that she doesn't eat much, so it shouldn't cause adverse effects. ”

Meron and the others didn't meet Jamie when they went to Ueda Village, and they decided the matter in front of the two of them, but when they ate flower seeds, Meron could only put this matter aside for the time being.

As for Akiba Shiuna, Yalina plans to let her move to Edinburgh to live, first, to take care of Akiba Shizuna and Chiaki Miko, and secondly, Yalina feels that Akiba Shizuna is a talent and trains her to be her right-hand man.

The mistress of the castle did not have nothing but to serve the owner of the castle, and theoretically the private affairs of the entire territory involving women were under her control.

It's just that many castle mistresses have their own right-hand men, and they usually don't need to come forward at all, obviously Yalina plans to cultivate Akiba Shizuna in this direction.

To describe the position in the previous world, the mistress of the castle is the director of the Women's Federation, and those right-hand men are the deputy directors of the Women's Federation......

After two days in Edinburgh, Meron began his long journey to Fort Dubai again.

Meron sadly found that the purpose of going to Fort Dubai this time was similar to the last time.

The last time I went to Dubai Fort was to get some metal materials, but this time in addition to metal materials, I also got a large amount of food, otherwise it would be an empty word to help the people of the territory tide over the difficulties.

When they arrived at Fort Dubai, Bent and Korda were not at the castle, but they met an unexpected person, Ellie.

"Oh, my dear brother, Lord Viscount Meron, long time no see, sister misses you to death." Seeing Meron, Elle was also very surprised, gave Meron a warm hug, and laughed excitedly.

Apparently she was very happy that Meron could become a viscount.

Ellie is nearly ten years older than Meron, and her mother died early, and the relationship between the two is basically half sister and brother, half mother and son.

Later, Elle couldn't go back to Fort Dubai at will when she got married, and the relationship between the two did not become cold, but became a lot closer.

When Meron first received the title of viscount, Elle sent her to Edinburgh to congratulate her, and she was the only one to do so.

As for Elle herself, she has a child that she needs to take with her, and as a wife, the mistress of a castle, it is not suitable to leave the castle for a long time.

Not to mention that the castle where she lives takes more than a month to travel back and forth from Edinburgh, and with the delay in Edinburgh, that is close to two months......

"Dear sister, I am very happy to see you here." Seeing Elle quieted Meron's irritable heart a lot, smiled slightly, and spoke.

Eliza didn't bother watching her siblings talk about the old days, but just stood aside with a smile.

When the hush was over, Eliza invited Elle and Meron to the large living room on the third floor.

Bringing them a glass of fruit wine, Eliza smiled and said to Meron, "Is there anything you need help with this time in the castle?" It's been a month and a half since you last left, and I don't believe you're just going to get back to the castle for a while. ”

When Eliza said this, Meron smiled awkwardly, didn't hide it, and said directly: "I really have something to do this time, in addition to wanting to get some metal materials, I also want to get a large amount of grain, and I can get as much grain as I can with the kind of food that is easy to store." ”
